microcntroller TM4C123GH6PMI hardware analysis



Can Someone plz tell me the meaning of the following things?

1.what is meant by a hibernate module?why TM4C123GH6PMI is known as a hibernate module?

2.what 2.0 in USB 2.0 signifies?

3. what does "10/100 Ethernet MAC and PHY" means in the datasheet?

4.Can some one plz tell me what is "Retractable Ethernet cable"?can someone post its image?

5.can someone say what does this mean"USB Micro-B and  USB-A plug cable"?

6. what do you mean by "ICDI USB"? and specially what is ICDI?

7.What is "pin out standard"?

8.Can someone give a simple explanation on"BOOSTER PACKS"?what is stackable boosterpack?

9.what is "RoHS Status"? can u plz explain its function?

10.what is meant by Break-out Power Output of microcontroller?

11.what is meant by "on board ICDI"?

12."Most of the microcontroller signals are routed to 0.1-in (2.54-mm) pitch headers" what does pitch header means?

13.what is a OTG function?

14.what is USB ID and USB Vbus?

  • That's "microcontroller" btw - tech requires (some) attention to detail.  Not one of your questions provides TM4C "hardware analysis" - they are much more general and not MCU targeted/directed...

    With the exception of your (#1 & 11) - Google proves well able to assist your investigation. Your items far more involve "general tech issues" - not best handled by (sole) vendor rep, here.

    Hibernate module is the MCU's construct to enable it to descend into "sleep" - done primarily to substantially lessen currend draw. (i.e. enables MCU board to run from battery - for prolonged periods.   Like its similar "bear analog" - not much work is done while the MCU (or bear) sleeps/hibernates...)

    ICDI abbreviates In Circuit Debug Interface. That's the method thru which one may program and debug the MCU board. Usually you'll encounter JTAG & SWD when you investigate this subject.  

    Such acronyms & abbreviations are "necessary evil" of most any field. (not limited just to tech) (i.e. medical, real estate, science, sailing (especially sailing)  all have/support similar)   Suspect Wikipedia may list such on a, "field by field" basis...

  • Hello cb1

    Well said sir and well explained as well!!! Clearly the poster needs a lot of homework.

    Hello Rudraprasad,

    No offense but except points #1 and #11, there is nothing TM4C123GH6PMI (or TM4C12x) specific.

    Regards

  • Hello Amit,

    Roberto, f.m. & few others "do try" to anticipate your (misuse) - reduce/buffer such - when/where and as able.

    As (one) here past stated, cannot be long before post arrives: "I'm using TM4C - Can someone plz explain my best "stock picking" strategy?"

    Does the (unverified) purchase of a sub 15 (USD) L-Pad entitle poster to free, quick, detailed, unlimited Tech (or stock-pick) support?   On what planet?

  •  Vote proposal, are tons of post like this of help to someone not lazy student?

     I think also external school can grow again if we discourage "Arduino" like forum level.

     When we definitively split forum and introduce beginner?

     Asylum is also welcome.

     Forgot a question to poster:

     What signify you have to study word meaning and more about low level topic??

     

    We have to sink more down to this level? is TI pretending some of us teach to these unruled and expose full professional area to this <<delirium>>??
