DK-TM4C129X: USB-OTG port

Part Number: DK-TM4C129X

Hello,

The J4 on the DK-TM4C129X is the connection for the ICDI that is used to program/debug the device.

1. Can I use J24 ( USB OTG port )  instead of J4 ? If so, what changes should I make ?

2. TM4C datasheet says there is ICD inside.How can we use that with an USB connection ? Any ciecuit diagram ?

3. We are not able to understand why TM4C123 is used in TM4C129X board and how the program download happens through USB ?

Thanks,

Adhitya

  • The schematics for the DK-TM4C129X are in appendix D of the User's Guide. The primary purpose of the TM4C123 on this board is as a JTAG scan controller for the TM4C129. The in-circuit debug and programming on the TM4C129 is done through the JTAG pins.

    No, J24 connects to the USB pins of the TM4C129. You need code inside of the TM4C129 to use that USB interface

    See page 7 of the schematic. The TM4C123 creates the scan controller. The USB port of the TMS4C123 is connected to J4.
