4.2 EXP Header

On the right side of the board, an angled 20-pin EXP header is provided to allow connection of peripherals or plugin boards. The connector contains a number of I/O pins that can be used with most of the EFM32PG23 Gecko's features. Additionally, the VMCU, 3V3, and 5V power rails are also exposed.

The connector follows a standard which ensures that commonly used peripherals such as a SPI, a UART, and I2C bus are available on fixed locations on the connector. The rest of the pins are used for general purpose I/O. This allows the definition of expansion boards that can plug into a number of different Silicon Labs kits.

The figure below shows the pin assignment of the EXP header for the PG23 Pro Kit. Because of limitations in the number of available GPIO pins, some of the EXP header pins are shared with kit features.

Diagram Description: The EXP Header pin assignment shows 20 pins. Pin 20 is 3V3 (Board controller supply), Pin 18 is 5V (Board controller USB voltage). Pins 16 (PA7) and 15 (PA8) are for I2C_SDA/SENSOR_I2C_SDA and I2C_SCL/SENSOR_I2C_SCL respectively. Pins 14 (PB6) and 12 (PB5) are for UART_RX/VCOM_RX and UART_TX/VCOM_TX. Pins 13 (PC9), 11 (PB4), and 9 (PA5) are GPIO pins for UIF_LED1, UIF_BUTTON1, and UIF_BUTTON0. Pin 2 is VMCU (EFM32PG23 voltage domain). Pins 19 and 17 are BOARD_ID_SDA and BOARD_ID_SCL for add-on board identification. Pins 10, 8, 6, 4 are NC. Pin 7, 5 are NC. Pin 3 is AIN1 (ADC Input). Pin 1 is GND.

4.3 Debug Connector (DBG)

The debug connector serves a dual purpose, based on the debug mode, which can be set up using Simplicity Studio. If the "Debug IN" mode is selected, the connector allows an external debugger to be used with the on-board EFM32PG23. If the "Debug OUT" mode is selected, the connector allows the kit to be used as a debugger towards an external target. If the "Debug MCU" mode (default) is selected, the connector is isolated from the debug interface of both the board controller and the on-board target device.

Because this connector is automatically switched to support the different operating modes, it is only available when the board controller is powered (J-Link USB cable connected). If debug access to the target device is required when the board controller is unpowered, this should be done by connecting directly to the appropriate pins on the breakout header.

The pinout of the connector follows that of the standard ARM Cortex Debug 19-pin connector. The pinout is described in detail below. Note that even though the connector supports JTAG in addition to Serial Wire Debug, it does not necessarily mean that the kit or the on-board target device supports this.

Diagram Description: The diagram shows a 19-pin connector with pins labeled VTARGET, TMS/SWDIO/C2D, TCK/SWCLK/C2CK, TDO/SWO, TDI/C2Dps, RESET/C2CKps, TRACECLK, TRACED0, TRACED1, TRACED2, TRACED3, and GND. It also includes NC pins and a Cable Detect pin.

Pin Number(s) Function Note
1 VTARGET Target reference voltage. Used for shifting logical signal levels between target and debugger.
2, 4 TMS / SWDIO / C2D JTAG test mode select, Serial Wire data or C2 data
6 TCK / SWCLK / C2CK JTAG test clock, Serial Wire clock or C2 clock
8 TDO/SWO JTAG test data out or Serial Wire output
10 TDI / C2Dps JTAG test data in, or C2D "pin sharing" function
12 RESET / C2CKps Target device reset, or C2CK "pin sharing" function
14 NC TRACECLK
16 NC TRACED0
18 NC TRACED1
20 NC TRACED2
9 Cable detect Connect to ground
11, 13 NC Not connected
3, 5, 15, 17, 19 GND

Even though the pinout matches the pinout of an ARM Cortex Debug connector, these are not fully compatible as pin 7 is physically removed from the Cortex Debug connector. Some cables have a small plug that prevents them from being used when this pin is present. If this is the case, remove the plug, or use a standard 2x10 1.27 mm straight cable instead.

4.4 Simplicity Connector

The Simplicity Connector featured on the pro kit enables advanced debugging features such as the AEM and the Virtual COM port to be used towards an external target. The pinout is illustrated in the figure below.

Diagram Description: The Simplicity Connector diagram shows pin assignments. VMCU is pin 1, 3V3 is pin 3, 5V is pin 5. GND pins are 7, 9, 11, 13, 15. Virtual COM TX is pin 2, RX is pin 4, CTS is pin 6, RTS is pin 8. BOARD_ID_SCL is pin 17, BOARD_ID_SDA is pin 19. Pins 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 are NC.

Pin Number(s) Function Description
1 VMCU 3.3 V power rail, monitored by the AEM
3 3V3 3.3 V power rail
5 5V 5 V power rail
2 VCOM_TX Virtual COM TX
4 VCOM_RX Virtual COM RX
6 VCOM_CTS Virtual COM CTS
8 VCOM_RTS Virtual COM RTS
17 BOARD_ID_SCL Board ID SCL
19 BOARD_ID_SDA Board ID SDA
10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 NC Not connected
7, 9, 11, 13, 15 GND Ground

The signal names in the figure and the pin description table are referenced from the board controller. This means that VCOM_TX should be connected to the RX pin on the external target, VCOM_RX to the target's TX pin, VCOM_CTS to the target's RTS pin, and VCOM_RTS to the target's CTS pin.

Note: Current drawn from the VMCU voltage pin is included in the AEM measurements, while the 3V3 and 5V voltage pins are not. To monitor the current consumption of an external target with the AEM, put the on-board MCU in its lowest energy mode to minimize its impact on the measurements.

5. Power Supply and Reset

5.1 MCU Power Selection

The EFM32PG23 on the pro kit can be powered by one of these sources:

The power source for the MCU is selected with the slide switch in the lower left corner of the pro kit. The figure below shows how the different power sources can be selected with the slide switch.

Diagram Description: The power switch diagram shows the USB Type-C Connector providing 5V, which goes through an LDO to 3.3V. This 3.3V can power the EFM32PG23 via the VMCU rail. The diagram also shows a 3 V Lithium Battery (CR2032) that can power the EFM32PG23 via the VMCU rail. A switch allows selection between the AEM (Advanced Energy Monitor) path or the BAT (Battery) path. When in AEM mode, the Advanced Energy Monitor is in series for measurements. When in BAT mode, the battery powers the device directly, and current measurements are not active.

5.2 Board Controller Power

The board controller is responsible for important features, such as the debugger and the AEM, and is powered exclusively through the USB port in the top left corner of the board. This part of the kit resides on a separate power domain, so a different power source can be selected for the target device while retaining debugging functionality. This power domain is also isolated to prevent current leakage from the target power domain when power to the board controller is removed.

The board controller power domain is not influenced by the position of the power switch.

The kit has been carefully designed to keep the board controller and the target power domains isolated from each other as one of them powers down. This ensures that the target EFM32PG23 device will continue to operate in the BAT mode.

5.3 EFM32PG23 Reset

The EFM32PG23 MCU can be reset by a few different sources:

In addition to the reset sources mentioned above, a reset to the EFM32PG23 will also be issued during board controller boot-up. This means that removing power to the board controller (unplugging the J-Link USB cable) will not generate a reset, but plugging the cable back in will, as the board controller boots up.

6. Peripherals

The pro kit has a set of peripherals that showcase some of the EFM32PG23 features. Note that most EFM32PG23 I/O routed to peripherals are also routed to the breakout pads or the EXP header, which must be taken into consideration when using these.

6.1 Push Buttons and LEDs

The kit has two user push buttons marked BTN0 and BTN1. They are connected directly to the EFM32PG23 and are debounced by RC filters with a time constant of 1 ms. The buttons are connected to pins PA5 and PB4.

The kit also features two yellow LEDs marked LED0 and LED1 that are controlled by GPIO pins on the EFM32PG23. The LEDs are connected to pins PC8 and PC9 in an active-high configuration.

Diagram Description: The diagram shows User Buttons (connected to PA5 and PB4) and LEDs (connected to PC8 and PC9) on the EFM32PG23. Button inputs are labeled UIF_BUTTON0 and UIF_BUTTON1. LED outputs are labeled UIF_LED0 and UIF_LED1.

6.2 LCD

A 20-pin segment LCD is connected to the EFM32's LCD peripheral. The LCD has 4 common lines and 10 segment lines, giving a total of 40 segments in quadruplex mode. These lines are not shared on the breakout pads. Refer to the kit schematic for information on signals to segments mapping.

A capacitor connected to the EFM32 LCD peripheral's charge pump pin is also available on the kit.

Diagram Description: The diagram shows the EFM32PG23 connected to a 4x10 Segment LCD. LCD_SEG pins (PC[7:0], PA[4,0]) are connected to the LCD segments. LCD_COM pins (PD[5:2]) are connected to the LCD commons. PA6 is connected to the LCD_CP (charge pump) pin.

6.3 Si7021 Relative Humidity and Temperature Sensor

The Si7021 I2C relative humidity and temperature sensor is a monolithic CMOS IC integrating humidity and temperature sensor elements, an analog-to-digital converter, signal processing, calibration data, and an I2C Interface. The patented use of industry-standard, low-K polymeric dielectrics for sensing humidity enables the construction of low-power, monolithic CMOS Sensor ICs with low drift and hysteresis, and excellent long term stability.

The humidity and temperature sensors are factory-calibrated and the calibration data is stored in the on-chip non-volatile memory. This ensures that the sensors are fully interchangeable with no recalibration or software changes required.

The Si7021 is available in a 3x3 mm DFN package and is reflow solderable. It can be used as a hardware and software-compatible drop-in upgrade for existing RH/temperature sensors in 3x3 mm DFN-6 packages, featuring precision sensing over a wider range and lower power consumption. The optional factory-installed cover offers a low profile, convenient means of protecting the sensor during assembly (e.g., reflow soldering) and throughout the life of the product, excluding liquids (hydrophobic/oleophobic) and particulates.

The Si7021 offers an accurate, low-power, factory-calibrated digital solution ideal for measuring humidity, dew point, and temperature in applications ranging from HVAC/R and asset tracking to industrial and consumer platforms.

The I2C bus used for the Si7021 is shared with the EXP header. The sensor is powered by VMCU, which means the sensor's current consumption is included in the AEM measurements.

Diagram Description: The diagram shows the Si7021 Temperature & Humidity Sensor connected to the EFM32PG23. The sensor uses VMCU for power (VDD) and PA7 (I2C0_SDA) and PA8 (I2C0_SCL) for communication, labeled SENSOR_I2C_SDA and SENSOR_I2C_SCL respectively.

Refer to the Silicon Labs web pages for more information: www.silabs.com/humidity-sensors.

6.4 LC Sensor

An inductive-capacitive sensor for demonstrating the Low Energy Sensor Interface (LESENSE) is located on the bottom right of the board. The LESENSE peripheral uses the voltage digital-to-analog converter (VDAC) to set up an oscillating current through the inductor and then uses the analog comparator (ACMP) to measure the oscillation decay time. The oscillation decay time will be affected by the presence of metal objects within a few millimeters of the inductor.

The LC sensor can be used for implementing a sensor that wakes up the EFM32PG23 from sleep when a metal object comes close to the inductor, which again can be used as a utility meter pulse counter, door alarm switch, position indicator or other applications where one wants to sense the presence of a metal object.

Diagram Description: The diagram shows the EFM32PG23 connected to an LC Sensor. PB0 (VDAC.CH0_MAIN_OUT) is used for DAC_LC_EXCITE. PB3 is used for LES_LC_SENSE. The LC sensor circuit includes a 470 µH inductor, 330 pF capacitor, 100 nF capacitor, and a 1.5 kΩ resistor.

For more information about the LC sensor usage and operation, refer to the application note, "AN0029: Low Energy Sensor Interface - Inductive Sense", which is available in Simplicity Studio or in the document library on the Silicon Labs website.

6.5 IADC SMA Connector

The kit features an SMA connector which is connected to the EFM32PG23's IADC through one of the dedicated IADC input pins (AIN0) in a single-ended configuration. The dedicated ADC inputs facilitate optimal connections between external signals and the IADC.

The input circuitry between the SMA connector and the ADC pin has been designed to be a good compromise between optimal settling performance at various sampling speeds, and protection of the EFM32 in case of an overvoltage situation. If using the IADC in High Accuracy mode with ADC_CLK configured to be higher than 1 MHz, it is beneficial to replace the 549 Ω resistor with 0 Ω. This comes at the cost of reduced overvoltage protection. See the device reference manual for more information about the IADC.

Diagram Description: The diagram shows the EFM32PG23 connected to an SMA connector via the IADC. The connection is through AIN0 (IADC0.PAD_ANA0). The circuit includes a 549 Ω resistor and a 49.9 Ω resistor.

Note that there is a 49.9 Ω resistor to ground on the SMA connector input which, depending on the output impedance of the source, influences the measurements. The 49.9 Ω resistor has been added to increase the performance towards 50 Ω output impedance sources.

6.6 Virtual COM Port

An asynchronous serial connection to the board controller is provided for application data transfer between a host PC and the target EFM32PG23, which eliminates the need for an external serial port adapter.

Diagram Description: The Virtual COM Port Interface diagram shows the EFM32PG23 communicating with a Host Computer via a Board Controller. The EFM32PG23 uses PB5 (USART0_TX) for VCOM_TX and PB6 (USART0_RX) for VCOM_RX. PB1 (GPIO) is used for VCOM_ENABLE. An isolation switch is present between the EFM32PG23 and the Board Controller.

Signal Description
VCOM_TX Transmit data from the EFM32PG23 to the board controller
VCOM_RX Receive data from the board controller to the EFM32PG23
VCOM_ENABLE Enables the VCOM interface, allowing data to pass through to the board controller

Note: The VCOM port is only available when the board controller is powered, which requires the J-Link USB cable to be inserted.

7. Advanced Energy Monitor

7.1 Usage

The Advanced Energy Monitor (AEM) data is collected by the board controller and can be displayed by the Energy Profiler, available through Simplicity Studio. By using the Energy Profiler, current consumption and voltage can be measured and linked to the actual code running on the EFM32PG23 in realtime.

7.2 Theory of Operation

To accurately measure current ranging from 0.1 µA to 47 mA (114 dB dynamic range), a current sense amplifier is utilized together with a dual gain stage. The current sense amplifier measures the voltage drop over a small series resistor. The gain stage further amplifies this voltage with two different gain settings to obtain two current ranges. The transition between these two ranges occurs around 250 µA. Digital filtering and averaging is done within the board controller before the samples are exported to the Energy Profiler application.

During kit startup, an automatic calibration of the AEM is performed, which compensates for the offset error in the sense amplifiers.

Diagram Description: The Advanced Energy Monitor diagram shows the power flow from a 5V source through an LDO to 3.3V, which then powers the EFM32PG23 via VMCU. A Sense Resistor (4.7Ω) is placed in series with the power path. An AEM Processing block receives input from a Current Sense Amplifier and Multiple Gain Stages (G0, G1). A Power Select Switch controls the path. Peripherals are connected to the EFM32PG23.

7.3 Accuracy and Performance

The AEM is capable of measuring currents in the range of 0.1 µA to 47 mA. For currents above 250 µA, the AEM is accurate within 0.1 mA. When measuring currents below 250 µA, the accuracy increases to 1 µA. Although the absolute accuracy is 1 µA in the sub 250 µA range, the AEM is able to detect changes in the current consumption as small as 100 nA. The AEM produces 6250 current samples per second.

8. On-Board Debugger

The PG23 Pro Kit contains an integrated debugger, which can be used to download code and debug the EFM32PG23. In addition to programming the EFM32PG23 on the kit, the debugger can also be used to program and debug external Silicon Labs EFM32, EFM8, EZR32, and EFR32 devices.

The debugger supports three different debug interfaces used with Silicon Labs devices:

To ensure accurate debugging, use the appropriate debug interface for your device. The debug connector on the board supports all three of these modes.

8.1 Debug Modes

To program external devices, use the debug connector to connect to a target board and set the debug mode to [Out]. The same connector can also be used to connect an external debugger to the EFM32PG23 MCU on the kit by setting debug mode to [In].

Selecting the active debug mode is done in Simplicity Studio.

Debug MCU: In this mode, the on-board debugger is connected to the EFM32PG23 on the kit.

Diagram Description (Debug MCU): A Host USB Computer connects to the Board Controller, which is connected to the EFM32PG23 via the DEBUG HEADER.

Debug OUT: In this mode, the on-board debugger can be used to debug a supported Silicon Labs device mounted on a custom board.

Diagram Description (Debug OUT): A Host USB Computer connects to the Board Controller, which is connected to External Hardware via the DEBUG HEADER.

Debug IN: In this mode, the on-board debugger is disconnected and an external debugger can be connected to debug the EFM32PG23 on the kit.

Diagram Description (Debug IN): A Host USB Computer connects to an External Debug Probe, which is connected to the EFM32PG23 via the DEBUG HEADER.

Note: For "Debug IN" to work, the kit board controller must be powered through the Debug USB connector.

8.2 Debugging During Battery Operation

When the EFM32PG23 is battery-powered and the J-Link USB is still connected, the on-board debug functionality is available. If the USB power is disconnected, the Debug IN mode will stop working.

If debug access is required when the target is running off another energy source, such as a battery, and the board controller is powered down, make direct connections to the GPIO used for debugging. This can be done by connecting to the appropriate pins on the breakout pads. Some Silicon Labs kits provide a dedicated pin header for this purpose.

9. Kit Configuration and Upgrades

The kit configuration dialog in Simplicity Studio allows you to change the J-Link adapter debug mode, upgrade its firmware, and change other configuration settings. To download Simplicity Studio, go to silabs.com/simplicity.

In the main window of the Simplicity Studio's Launcher perspective, the debug mode and firmware version of the selected J-Link adapter are shown. Click the [Change] link next to any of them to open the kit configuration dialog.
