A small serial EEPROM holds the FT2232 configuration data. The EEPROM is not accessible by
the LM3S9B96 microcontroller. For full details on FT2232 operation, go to www.ftdichip.com.
USB to JTAG/SWD
The FT2232 USB device performs JTAG/SWD serial operations under the control of the debugger.
A simple logic circuit multiplexes SWD and JTAG functions and, when working in SWD mode,
provides direction control for the bidirectional data line.
Virtual COM Port
The Virtual COM Port (VCP) allows Windows applications (such as HyperTerminal) to
communicate with UART0 on the LM3S9B96 over USB. Once the FT2232 VCP driver is installed,
Windows assigns a COM port number to the VCP channel. Table 2-4 shows the debug-related
signals.
Serial Wire Out (SWO)
The development board supports the Cortex-M3 Serial-Wire Output (SWO) trace capabilities.
Under debugger control, on-board logic can route the SWO datastream to the VCP transmit
channel. The debugger software can then decode and interpret the trace information received
from the Virtual Com Port. The normal VCP connection to UART0 is interrupted when using SWO.
Not all debuggers support SWO.
See the Stellaris LM3S9B96 Microcontroller Data Sheet for additional information on the Trace
Port Interface Unit (TPIU).
Color QVGA LCD Touch Panel
The development board features a TFT Liquid Crystal graphics display with 320 x 240 pixel
resolution. The display is protected during shipping by a thin, protective plastic film which should
be removed before use.
