STK1000/RS232 connectors

From AVRFreaks Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

RS232 interfaces can be used to connect a PC to STK1000. This is particularly useful when communicating with the U-boot boot loader and Linux when these run on STK1000.

Two RS232 connectors are available to the user. A dual RS232 level converter provide proper voltage levels for compliance to the RS232 standard. Three jumper settings are used to select where UART signals are used.

Signals

The default settings when communicating with U-boot and Linux are listed below. U-boot is programmed onto the external flash by default. The Linux distribution will normally reside on a SD memory card.

Setting Value
Baud rate 115200
Data 8 bit
Parity none
Stop 1 bit
Flow control none
