Note: The port pins connected to the infrared interface (PTD6 and PTD7) are also connected to the
OSJTAG USB-to-serial bridge. Refer to Table 6 “I/O Connectors and Pin Usage Table” and Table 5
“TWR-K40X256 Jumper Table” for more information.
2.6 Accelerometer
An MMA7660 digital accelerometer is connected to the K40 MCU through an I2C interface and a
GPIO/IRQ signal. Refer to Table 6 “I/O Connectors and Pin Usage Table” for connection details.
2.7 Potentiometer, Pushbuttons, LEDs
The TWR-K40X256 features two pushbutton switches connected to GPIO/interrupt signals, one
pushbutton connected to the master reset signal, four capacitive touch pad electrodes, four user-
controllable LEDs, and a potentiometer connected to an ADC input signal. Refer to Table 6 “I/O
Connectors and Pin Usage Table” for information about which port pins are connected to these
features.
2.8 General Purpose Tower Plug-in (TWRPI) Socket
The TWR-K40X256 features a socket that can accept a variety of different Tower Plug-in modules
featuring sensors, RF transceivers, and more. The General Purpose TWRPI socket provides access to
I2C, SPI, IRQs, GPIOs, timers, analog conversion signals, TWRPI ID signals, reset, and voltage supplies.
The pinout for the TWRPI Socket is defined in Table 3.
Refer to Table 6 “I/O Connectors and Pin Usage Table” for the specific K40 pin connections to the
General Purpose TWRPI socket.
