BSC9131RDB Overview

This quick start guide provides instruction on the various

resources required to get started with the BSC9131RDB

hardware kit. The BSC9131RDB includes a number of different

connectivity and debugging options for the various internal

systems of the device.

The BSC9131 device itself contains an e500 Power Architecture

core and an SC3850 StarCore DSP core. The complete system

is controlled by the e500 core, which, by default, is set up to

boot with u-boot and then run Linux with the user interfacing to

u-boot/Linux via a terminal command prompt over the UART

connector from the BSC9131RDB. Additional options of running

code on the DSP will also be covered in this guide.

Step-by-Step Installation Instructions

In this quick start guide, you will learn how to set up the BSC9131RDB board.

Attach

RS232 Cable

In addition to the BSC9131RDB board,

the user will also require a PC with a USB

interface. Connect the UART (RS232) cable

to connector J25 on the BSC9131RDB,

and to the USB port on the user’s PC.

Set Up Serial

Connection in PC

1. In the user’s PC, in HyperTerminal

(standard with Windows XP), or if

HyperTerminal is unavailable, PuTTY is

another easy solution, configure a serial

connection for the BSC9131RDB as

115200 (baudrate), 8 bits, no parity,

1 stop bit, no flow control. (See figure for

PuTTY serial port configuration)

2. Enable the terminal software by

“connecting” your connection in the serial

software so it is up and is waiting for the

BSC9131RDB u-boot prompt

Assemble and Connect

Power Supply

1. Assemble the 12 V, 5.5 A power

supply kit

2. Connect power supply to the 12 V

connector (P4)

3. Plug the power cable into the wall outlet

Quick Start Guide

Verify U-Boot

Prompt

With the board powered and

connected to the computer,

and with HyperTerminal/

serial software running, we

should see the u-boot screen,

as shown in the picture. If

the u-boot screen does not

appear, press the power

button on the front of the

enclosure to initiate.

Press any key before the

autoboot countdown reaches

0 in order to have access to

the u-boot command prompt.

Steps

At this point the BSC9131RDB has been

verified as functional. The next section

of this guide will discuss the available

documentation for the BSC9131RDB user.

To continue on with u-boot, the SDK

documentation introduced below will guide

the reader on to the next logical steps in

u-boot and Linux

configuration.

Other Supporting Documentation

This section will cover the various resources needed to get started with all components of

the BSC9131RDB. The BSC9131RDB comes with a number of different connectivity and

debugging options for the various internal systems of the device.

The BSC9131RDB

The BSC9131RDB has two main

documents. As hardware setup is

dependent on what software systems will

be run on the RDB, these guides may

be used as reference in addition to your

specific software configuration guide.

The two documents for the RDB are:

•Hardware Getting Started Guide

(BSC9131RDB HGS_FINAL.pdf)

Provides the user with a quick set of

instructions for setting dip switches to

default settings.

•BSC9131RDB User Guide

(BSC9131RDB_UG.pdf)

Provides the user with a more in-depth

set of information regarding the RDB.

The user can refer back to either document

for hardware information if something is

unclear in the following sections.

Quick Start Guide

Software Development Kit

(SDK): U-Boot and Linux

The u-boot and Linux package is referred

to as the WUSDK (SDK for short). RDBs

come with some version of u-boot burned

into the board’s flash memory. All of the

documentation for the SDK is provided

with each SDK release. The document for

getting started with u-boot and Linux (the

SDK) is also included:

•Using BSC9131RDB—A Step By Step

Guide.doc

Download the current WUSDK from the

software tab on the BSC9131RDB web

page and follow the step-by-step guide

to get the SDK working on your board.

This guide also provides the basic dip

switch settings for the RDB in order to

verify various functionalities, instructions

on how to update u-boot and Linux

on the board and basic instructions for

using various features. In addition to the

SDK’s getting started document, there

is also a general reference manual for

further specifics related to the SDK, titled

BSC913x_BSP_User_Guide.pdf.

Inter-Processor Communication

(IPC)

Once your RDB is up and running with

the SDK, the next steps involve running

code to prove that both the e500 and the

DSP cores are working together. The most

basic demo for this is the IPC demo. This

demo shows the e500 and SC3850 cores

sending messages to each other via the

terminal screen. This is covered in the SDK

documentation referenced in the previous

section.

Other Supporting Documentation (continued)

Software Debugging Tools

for the BSC9131RDB

The above sections enable the user to

verify that the e500 and SC3850 cores

are functional and able to communicate

with each other. The next step may be

used to debug the user’s own applications

and software. The BSC9131 SoC has

separate debugging tools for the e500

core and the SC3850 core. The e500 core

can be debugged via GDB in Linux, or via

CodeWarrior for PPC. The current intent

is that programmers will debug via Linux,

which is covered in the SDK’s BSC913x_

BSP_User_Guide.pdf.

For debugging the SC3850 core,

programmers must use CodeWarrior for

StarCore DSPs. Download CodeWarrior

for StarCore (BSC913x) and CodeWarrior

for PPC from freescale.com and use the

following application note to get started

with these debugger tools. The application

note explaining the CodeWarrior debugger

setup for BSC913x is

AN4384: Configuring the CodeWarrior

Tools to Debug a BSC9131RDB Board

Follow this document to get up and

running on the CodeWarrior tools for the

BSC9131RDB.

Quick Start Guide

Other Supporting Documentation (continued)

SmartDSP OS

Once the user has the basic flow of the

SDK, IPC and debugging with CodeWarrior,

the user may take advantage of the

SmartDSP OS package, on which the

SC3850 core operates. SmartDSP OS

comes standard with the CodeWarrior

for StarCore DSP tools suite, in the

<CodeWarrior Install Folder>\SC\StarCore_

Support\SmartDSP folder.

SmartDSP includes a number of demos on

how to program SmartDSP to utilize various

BSC9131 features. These demos are

located in the following SmartDSP folder:

SmartDSP\demos\starcore\BSC9x3x\.

Each demo folder comes with a readme file

explaining how to run the demo.

Two highlighted SmartDSP demos for the

BSC9131 are the aic_loopback demo and

the IPC demo. The user can run the IPC

demo discussed in the SDK section of this

document using the SmartDSP instructions

instead of running via the Linux dsp_bt

command command.

To demonstrate the AIC loopback

demo, the user needs an RF card (the

demo was created and tested using a

Benetel RF card, sold separately from

the RDB). Instructions for running the

AIC loopback demo are included in the

SDK documentation and the SmartDSP

demo documentation. The user should

read both sets of documentation for AIC

programming, as Linux is used to initialize

the AIC, while SmartDSP is used for

runtime access of the AIC.
