The IM-AD1 Interface Module is aimed at developers who need to demonstrate a concept or application or evaluate PrimeCell® Peripherals. Third party or customer designed peripherals can also be used to drive the circuitry and/or connectors.

In this way the IM-AD1 bridges the gap between the Integrator development platform and real-world applications. This enables designers to interface with an existing system, speeding up the development of software and silicon IP for application areas such as engine management and automotive telematics.

• 2 CAN interfaces using Bosch CC770 controller, both capable of 1Mbit/s
• 2 x 8 channel 12 bit A/D converters. 200KS/s max, 0-5V buffered inputs
• 12 bit D/A converter, 2 separate channels, 0-5V outputs
• 2 x L298 2A stepper motor drivers configured for bipolar motors
• 2 x logic level stepper motor control outputs for use with remote drive circuitry
• 2 x 3A MOSFET configured as high side switch for DC switching or PWM output
• 2 SPI interface connectors to support SSP PrimeCell implemented in Logic Module
• RS232 UART
• 2 headers each with 32 GPIO signals. Can be used to connect to daughter card for alternative interface specific hardware
• Mictor logic analyzer connector on 32 GPIO lines
• JTAG interface to Multi-ICE^®

The Interface Module is supplied with a development copy of the FPGA programming files and example software drivers for the following PrimeCells that can be supported by this board,

• PL 190 Vectored Interrupt Controller
• PL 011 UART
• PL 022 Synchronous Serial Interface
• PL 160 DC-DC Converter

Also included are HDL code examples and software to drive the remaining interfaces on the module
