2. About the Daughter Boards
The C8051T620 and C8051T622 Development Kits include an Emulation Daughter Board (EDB) and a QFN
Socket Daughter Board (QFN-DB). The EDB has an installed C8051F34A device, which is a Flash-based device
that can be used for the majority of C8051T62x/32x code development. The QFN-DB is intended to allow both
programming and system-level debugging of C8051T62x/32x devices directly.
A C8051T62x/32x device cannot be erased once it has been programmed; so, it is advisable to use the
C8051F34A for the majority of code development. Refer to “AN368: Differences between the C8051F34A and the
C8051T62x and C8051T32x Device Families” for more details on how the C8051F34A can be used to develop
code for the C8051T62x/32x device families.

As an alternative to the Silicon Laboratories IDE, the µVision debug driver allows the Keil µVision2, µVision3, and
µVision4 IDEs to communicate with Silicon Laboratories’ on-chip debug logic. In-system Flash memory
programming integrated into the driver allows for rapid updating of target code. The µVision2, µVision3, and
µVision4 IDEs can be used to start and stop program execution, set breakpoints, check variables, inspect and
modify memory contents, and single-step through programs running on the actual target hardware.
For more information, refer to the µVision driver documentation. The documentation and software are available on
5.5. Programming Utilities
The Silicon Labs IDE is the primary tool for downloading firmware to the MCU during development. There are two
software programming tools that are intended for use during prototyping or in the field: the MCU Production
Programmer and the Flash Programming Utilities. The MCU Production Programmer is installed with the IDE to the
directory, C:\Silabs\MCU\Utilities\Production Programmer\ (default). The Flash Programming Utilities can be
optionally installed from the CD and are installed to C:\Silabs\MCU\Utilities\FLASH Programming\ (default).
5.6. ToolStick Terminal
The onboard debug circuitry provides both an in-system programming and debugging interface and a
communications interface to the target microcontroller's UART. The ToolStick Terminal software can access the
debug hardware's communications path and provides a terminal-like interface on the PC. Note that for concurrent
debugging and UART communications, the CP2103 USB-to-UART bridge is also included onboard.
In addition to the standard terminal functions (Send File, Receive File, Change Baud Rate), two GPIO pins on the
target microcontroller can be controlled using the terminal for either RTS/CTS handshaking or software-
configurable purposes. The ToolStick Terminal software is available on the downloads webpage: www.silabs.com/

7.1. System Clock Sources
The C8051T62x/32x devices feature a calibrated internal oscillator that is enabled as the system clock source on
reset. After reset, the internal oscillator operates at a frequency of 48 MHz (±1.5%) by default but may be
configured by software to operate at other frequencies. Therefore, in many applications, an external oscillator is not
required. However, if you wish to operate the C8051T62x/32x device at a frequency not available with the internal
oscillator, an external oscillator source may be used. Refer to the C8051T620-21_T320-3 or C8051T620-23_T326-
27 data sheet for more information on configuring the system clock source.
7.2. Switches, LEDs, and Potentiometer (J9, J10, and J12)
Three switches are provided on the motherboard. The RESET switch is connected to the RST pin of the
C8051T62x/32x. Pressing RESET puts the device into its hardware-reset state. The switch labeled “SW1” can be
connected to the C8051T62x/32x's general-purpose I/O (GPIO) pins P0.1 and P2.0, and “SW2” can be connected
to the C8051T62x/32x's general-purpose I/O (GPIO) pins P1.0 and P2.1 through header J9. Pressing a switch
generates a logic low signal on the port pin. Remove its shorting block from the J9 header to disconnect the switch
from the port pin.
Seven LEDs are also provided on the motherboard. The red LED labeled “PWR” (D4) is used to indicate a power
connection to the motherboard. The green LED labeled “RUN” (D10) turns on when the debug circuitry is in a
running state; the red LED labeled “STOP” (D11) turns on when the debug circuitry is in a halted state, and the
orange LED labeled “DEBUG PWR” (D12) indicates whether the debug adapter circuit is being powered through
P5's USB connector. The red LED labeled “VPP” (D7) indicates when the VPP programming voltage is being
applied to the device. The green LEDs, labeled “LED1” (D1) and “LED2” (D2), can be connected to C8051T62x/
32x's GPIO pins through header J10. Remove its shorting block from the header to disconnect an LED from the
port pin. The red LED labeled “USB ACTIVE” (D13) will turn on whenever the CP2103 USB-to-UART bridge is
connected to a PC and has successfully completed enumeration.
Also included on the C8051T62x Motherboard is a 10 k thumbwheel rotary potentiometer, reference number R8.
The potentiometer can be connected to the C8051T62x/32x's P2.5 pin through the J12 header. Remove the
shorting block from the header to disconnect the potentiometer from the port pin.

7.3. Power Supply Headers (J6 and J7)
The main power supply of the motherboard, which is used to power the daughter board, can be provided by either
the USB Debug Adapter’s on-chip voltage regulator, the CP2103 USB-to-UART bridge’s on-chip voltage regulator,
P3 and its associated circuitry, or an external voltage applied to the VDD_EXT connection on J1. To select a power
supply, place a shorting block on J6 across the appropriate pin pair, as shown in Figure 12. To connect the main
power supply to an attached daughter board, place a shorting block across J7.
Notes:
1. Only one shorting block should be placed on J6 at a time.
2. To use the CP2103’s voltage regulator as the board's power supply, a USB cable must be connected to P4, and the USB
ACTIVE LED (D2) must be on.
3. To use the USB Debug Adapter’s voltage regulator as the board's power supply, a USB cable must be connected to P5,
and the DEBUG PWR LED (D12) must be on.

7.4. USB Debug Adapter (DEBUG/P5)
A Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector (P5) provides the onboard debug and programming interface. The debug/
programming MCU and associated circuitry are powered through the USB connector, which can also supply the
rest of the motherboard by routing the USB Debug Adapter's power through J6. The USB Debug Adapter also
provides a data communications interface that can be used when the debug adapter is not debugging or
programming a C8051T62x/32x device.
7.5. UART to USB Communications Interfaces (COMM/P4)
The C8051T62x Motherboard provides UART to USB communications interfaces through both the CP2103 USB-
to-UART bridge device and the communications interface of the USB Debug Adapter.
The CP2103 bridge device connects to a PC through the USB connector labeled “COMM” (P4). This USB
connector supplies power to the CP2103 and can supply power to the rest of the motherboard by configuring J6
and J7 as shown in Figure 12. To use the CP2103 as a communications interface, the CP2103 Virtual COM Port
drivers must be installed on a PC.
The USB Debug Adapter's communications interface connects to a PC through P5. Access to the USB Debug
Adapter's communications interface is provided by the Windows program called “ToolStick Terminal”, which is
available for download for free from the Silicon Laboratories website. See the ToolStick Terminal help file for
information on how to use ToolStick Terminal.
7.6. Communications Interface Selector Headers (J8 and J11)
The C8051T62x Motherboard routes the C8051T62x/32x's P0.4 (UART TX) and P0.5 (UART RX) to J11 where
those signals can be connected to either the CP2103 USB-To-UART bridge or the USB Debug Adapter. The
motherboard also allows the C8051T62x/32x's P1.1 and P1.2 to be used as the UART control signals, CTS and
RTS. These two signals are routed to J8, where they can be connected to either the CP2103 or the USB Debug
Adapter.
The jumper options for using either the CP2103 or the Debug Adapter circuit for UART communications can be

7.7. PORT I/O Connectors (J2, J3, J4, and J5)
Each of the C8051T62x/32x's I/O pins, as well as +3VD and GND, are routed to headers J2 through J5. J2
connects to the microcontroller's Port 0 pins; J3 connects to Port 1; J4 connects to Port 2, and J5 connects to
Port 3.

7.8. Analog I/O (J1 and J14)
Three of the C8051T62x/32x target device's port pins are connected to the J1 terminal block. The terminal block
also allows users to input an external voltage that can be used as the power supply of the board. Refer to Table 3
for the J1 terminal block connections. Placing a shorting block on J14 will connect the P0.7/VREF signal on J1 to
the P0.7 pin of the device.

7.9. VPP Connection (J15)
The C8051T62x/32x devices require an external 6.0 V programming voltage applied to the VPP pin during device
programming. The VPP pin on these devices is shared with P1.5 or P1.1 depending on the device. During
programming, the VPP voltage is automatically enabled when needed. Header J15 is provided to allow the user to
disconnect the programming circuitry from the VPP pin to avoid interfering with the normal application operation of
the GPIO pin. When programming the device, J15 should be shorted with a shorting block. When running normal
application code, J15 can be removed. See Table 4 for more information on which port pins are shared with VPP.

7.10. Using Alternate Supplies with the C8051T62x Development Kit
For most evaluation purposes, the onboard 3.3 V supply regulator is sufficient to be used as a VDD power supply.
However, in applications where a different supply voltage is desired (e.g., 1.8 V), an external supply voltage can be
applied to the board at the analog connector (J1). Some devices in the C8051T62x/32x family also support a
separate voltage input for the input/output voltage of the port pins. This Voltage Input/Output (VIO) should be input
to J1 on Pin 2. See the C8051T620-21_T320-3 or C8051T620-23_T326-27 data sheet for more information about
VIO usage and constraints.
Notes:
When programming a C8051T62x/32x device, VDD must be at least 3.3 V. VDD can be supplied directly to the
device, or the on-chip 5 V regulator can be used.
If an external supply voltage is desired, the shorting block on J6 should be placed so that the Pin 3 (VDD_EXT)
is shorted to Pin 4 (VDD_PWR).
