2.1. I
Please refer to the quick start guide provided for initial installation of the EDK.
A copy of the quick start guide and other information relating to this EDK at:

Installing the EDK requires power and serial connection to a host computer.
2.2. S
The serial communications cable for connecting the EDK to a host computer requires 1:1 connectivity.
Figure 2-1 shows how to connect the EDK to a PC or notebook computer equipped with a nine pin D connector.
2.3. P
The EDK hardware requires a power supply of +5V. Since total power consumption can vary widely due to external
connections, port states, and memory configuration, use a power supply capable of providing at least 500mA at +5V DC ±
5%.
The design is specified for evaluation of the microcontroller and so does not include circuitry for supply filtering/noise
reduction, under voltage protection, over current protection or reversed polarity protection. Caution should be used when
selecting and using a power supply.
The power connector on the EDK is a 2.5mm Barrel connector. The center pin is the positive connection.
Caution: Existing customers using E6000 products note that the polarity of this board is opposite to that for the
