Microcontroller
The evaluation board uses the Stellaris EK-LM3S9B92 microcontroller. A 16 MHz crystal provides
the main oscillator clock which can directly drive the ARM core clock or can drive an internal PLL
to increase the core clock up to 80 MHz. A 25 MHz crystal is used for the Ethernet clock.
The LM3S9B92 microcontroller has an internal LDO voltage regulator that supplies power for
internal use. This rail requires only three capacitors for decoupling and is not connected to any
other circuits.

Hardware Description

Reset
A reset switch and R-C network connects to the microcontroller’s RSTn input. The reset signal is
also connected to the JTAG/SWD connector J1 to allow reset control from the debugger.

GPIO Pads
Four groups of oversized board pads with a 0.1” spacing provide access to GPIO signals and
standard 0.1” pitch headers can be soldered to these pads. Pads are labeled with the
corresponding GPIO signal, and pads with no labels are unconnected. Note that GPIO signals
required for operation of the Ethernet port, USB port, and JTAG port are reserved for board use
and are not available on these pads. Figure 2-2 shows the pad groups.

GPIO Jumpers
Some of the GPIO signals used by the board are connected to board jumpers and can be
disconnected to provide additional user GPIOs. GPIOs PA0/PA1/PB4/PD0/PF2/PF3 are
connected to jumpers JR1-JR6 respectively. Each signal can be freed by cutting the trace of the
corresponding jumper (cut at white line on silkscreen). The jumper pads have the same footprint
as an 0603 SMT resistor. To reconnect a previously cut jumper, solder a 0 ohm resistor to the
corresponding jumper footprint.

JTAG/SWD
The JTAG/SWD connector J1 is used for program download and debug. This is a 2x5 fine pitch
(0.050”) ARM JTAG connector, see (Figure 2-3) for signal definition. The LM3S9B92
microcontroller supports JTAG debug, Serial Wire Debug (SWD), and Serial Wire Out (SWO) trace
with this connector. The ICDI board connects via a 10-wire ribbon cable to this connector.

PWR/UART
The PWR/UART connector J2 is used to provide 5 V power from the ICDI board and also to
connect the LM3S9B92 UART0 signals. This is a 2x4 fine pitch (0.050") connector, see
(Figure 2-4) for signal definition. The UART0 signals are connected to GPIO jumpers JR1 and JR2
and can be disconnected from connector J2 if required, see “GPIO Jumpers” on page 14. The
ICDI board connects via an 8-wire ribbon cable to this connector.

Ethernet, USB, Power and Miscellaneous (Schematic page 2)

Page 2 of the schematics contains the Ethernet RJ45 connector, USB power switch and USB OTG
connector, 3.3 V regulator, and power switch selector.

Ethernet Port
The on-board RJ45 connector provides a 10/100 base T Ethernet port. The RJ45 connector
includes integrated LEDs and magnetics. The LEDs are connected to GPIO jumpers JR4 and JR5
and can be disconnected from the RJ45 connector if required, see GPIO Jumpers section.

USB Port
The on-board USB microAB connector provides a USB 2.0 full-speed port. To use as an On-The-
Go (OTG) port, the power selector switch SW3 lever must be set to EXT. This selects an external
5 V power source to provide power to the board and the USB power switch. If the SW3 lever is set
to USB, power to the board is received from USB, the on-board USB power switch output is
disconnected from USB, and the board can only be used as a USB device. When using the
USB-OTG port in Host mode, the current provided to a USB device should be limited to 100 mA or
less when powered from the ICDI board. If powered from the 5 V test pad, then this can be
increased to 500 mA.

Board Power
The board requires 5 V for operation, and switch SW3 is used to select the power source. If the
switch lever is moved towards the USB label on the board, power is received from the USB
connector. If the switch lever is moved towards the EXTernal board label, the board is powered
from the PWR/UART connector and the ICDI board provides power to this connector. DC regulator
U2 generates 3.3 V for powering the board circuits and includes power indicator LED D1.

User Devices
Pushbutton switch SW2 and LED D2 are available for the user and connected to PB4 and PD0
respectively. These GPIOs are connected to GPIO jumpers JR3 and JR4 and can be
disconnected from SW2 and D2 if required, see GPIO Jumpers section.

USB
An FTDI USB to serial protocol chip is used for the USB 2.0 full-speed device controller. This is
connected to a USB miniB connector and to a set of buffers/multiplexers. A 1-kbit serial EEPROM
contains USB configuration data which is read at power up.

Power
The board receives 5 V power from the USB bus. A DC regulator generates 3.3 V for on-board
circuits, when on LED D1 (POWER) is lit on.

Headers
Three headers are on-board, a 10-pin JTAG/SWD header J1, an 8-pin PWR/UART header J2, and
an optional 20-pin JTAG/SWD header J3. The 10-pin and 8-pin headers are used to connect to the
EK-LM3S9B92 evaluation board.

JTAG/SWD
JTAG/SWD connector J1 connects to the EK-LM3S9B92 evaluation board with a ribbon cable for
program download and debug. This is a 2x5 fine pitch (0.050”) ARM JTAG connector, see
(Figure 2-6) for signal definition.The ICDI supports JTAG debug, SWD (Serial Wire Debug), and
SWO (Serial Wire Out) trace with this connector.
Optional JTAG/SWD connector J3 is a 2x10 standard pitch (0.1”) ARM JTAG connector directly
connected to J1, see (Figure 2-7) for signal definition. This allows the ICDI to connect to targets
that use a 2x10 connector. It also allows the use of an external 2x10 debugger on targets with the

fine pitch connector, including the EK-LM3S9B92. The signal direction shown for J1 and J3 applies
when the ICDI is used as the JTAG/SWD debugger and LED D2 (DEBUG ACTIVE) is lit on. In this
case only one of the two connectors J1/J3 should be used.
The ICDI can also be used as a 20-pin to 10-pin adapter for external JTAG debuggers. Note that
the DEBUG ACTIVE LED must be off before connecting any external JTAG debuggers.

Buffers
A set of tri-state buffers is used to multiplex JTAG and SWD signals, and also multiplex the UART
VCP_TX signal with the SWO signal. LED D2 (DEBUG ACTIVE) is lit on when these buffers are
enabled. To avoid signal contention, external JTAG debuggers should not be connected when
DEBUG ACTIVE is on.
