5.4 Connecting the ProDK to the host PC
The ProDK Development Kit allows functional verification of the DA14695 family of devices. It supports
connecting external hardware by exporting DA14695 pins to standard headers and enables the user
to do precise power measurements through the integrated power measurements circuitry. Additionally.
The ProDK motherboard also includes:
•An embedded J-Link debugger U4 SAM3U2CA which ensures the USB to JTAG function by
loading the software from Segger to the ROM of U4. The chip is supplied with a 3.3V from U14
which is enabled by PWR_ENABLE signal.
•FTDI chipset U12 FT2232HL which allow easy communication with the development host over
USB. The FT2232HL implements the USB to UART function and ensure the connectivity of PC
to the DA14695 SoC UART port and to current sense circuitry through SPI connection with ADC.
The chip is supplied with a 3.3V from U14. A 12MHz crystal Y4 is required for the chip operation.
The ProDK Development Kit is connected to the host PC over the connector marked as USB1, as
shown in reference 6 in Figure 2 and Figure 6 using a standard mini-USB cable. For further reading

you can refer to the Application Note: AN-B-061 DA1469x Application Hardware Design
Guidelines and UM-B-093 The hardware of DA1469x Development kit.
NOTE
Before connecting the ProDK Development Kit to the host PC make sure that:
•The main board and the desired daughter board module are properly connected.
•The power switch on the daughter board is in the left position (VBAT) to select USB from motherboard.

6 DA14695 Connecting the Board
6.1 Introduction
This Section describes the installation procedure for the drivers, the configuration of the serial port,
and all necessary steps to verify the connection with the PC as well as solutions to any problems that
may occur.
6.2 Requirements of the Development PC
For proper evaluation and application development using the DA14695 SoC and the ProDK an external
host is required. This external host must have an operating system already installed (Windows or Linux)
and USB ports as described in 2.

6.3 Driver installation
6.3.1 Microsoft Windows
On first connection to a host PC running Microsoft Windows, the system will detect several devices
and will automatically install all necessary drivers. If the system is configured to use Microsoft Windows
Update, this may take several minutes to complete.
When the driver installation is complete, the system displays a Microsoft windows similar to the one
presented in Figure 7.
Figure 7: Windows driver installation
There are two virtual COM ports created by the Windows driver. The first COM port (lower number,
COM25 in this example) provides a UART interface between the PC and the DA1469x device. The
second (higher number, COM26 in this example) is used to export measurement data from the current
sense circuitry on the ProDK Kit to the Power Profiler tool. For more information on the Power Profiler,
see the SmartSnippets Toolbox User Manual (UM-B-083).
NOTE
The COM port numbers assigned to the ProDK Kit motherboard might be different to the ones shown in
Figure 7
NOTE
If Your PC has a serial port on it, then that's the COM1 you're seeing. Hence you can't make a communication
between the ProDK Kit board and the Windows on that port. But you can do it only by using the other lowest
COM port, COM25 in this case.

The COM port numbers can be found in the Windows Device Manager (Control Panel > Device
Manager > Ports (COM & LPT)) as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8: Device Manager Ports
6.3.2 Linux
When ProDK is connected to a host PC running a Linux distribution (such as Ubuntu or CentOS) and
has Internet connectivity, the system will detect several devices and all necessary drivers will be silently
installed. Provided that the process has properly finished, two additional devices will appear in the /dev
directory under the names ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1, as shown in Figure 9. These names might be
different in case other serial converters are connected to the system beforehand. If no other serial port
converters are connected, the device that should be used with the terminal or programmer utility will
be called /dev/ttyUSB0. If there are more devices with the name ttyUSBx, note which ones showed
up when the ProDK was connected and use the lower number of the two devices.

Figure 9: Ports assigned to ProDK
6.3.3 COM port usage
There are two virtual COM ports created by the driver with either Windows or Linux. The first (lower
number) is used to export a UART from the DA14695 device. In the previous sections this was either
COM5 or /dev/ttyUSB0. The second (higher number) is used to export measurement data from the
current sense circuitry on the ProDK to the Power Profiler tool.
6.4 Configuring the serial port for UART2
Several development tools require UART2 to be routed to the FTDI serial port. Please refer to
Development Kit Pro User Manual for details on how to properly configure the specific port. ProDK
board connection verification can be made using the pre-existing Terminal application.
6.4.1 Windows Host
On a Windows Host the utility Tera Term can be used to fully validate the connection to the ProDK.
Tera Term is a free software terminal emulator (communication program) which supports multiple
communication including Serial port connections. Download Teraterm from https://ttssh2.osdn.jp. Run
the teraterm-x.yy.exe and follow the installation wizard.
To make sure that the communication between the ProDK board and the development host is properly
established, it is necessary to verify the UART connection between the two nodes. To do so, execute
the following steps:
•Step 1 Connect the ProDK board to the PC board via USB cable to USB2(DBG) as described
in Figure 6.
•Step 2 Verify that the host discovered two serial ports –the first is connected to UART2 (see
6.3.1).
•Step 3 Open Tera Term from the Windows Start menu.
•Step 4 In the Tera Term: New connection dialog, select Serial, then select the COM Port to
use, and click OK.

To get the control of the COM port You need to be an administrator on your local machine.
•Step 6 Open the the Lowest COM port number assigned to the ProDK, refer to Figure 9 to
figure out which port number is used by Windows by running the Windows Device Manager.
Make sure that the UART is configured as shown in Table 4. Once you have a connection,
you should start to see something as shown in Figure 10. The DA1496X device use random
BLE addresses, new address is generated on every reset button push.

6.4.2 Linux Host
Under Linux there is a simpler approach to validate the connection using a basic terminal such as
putty. Connect putty to /dev/ttyUSB0 at 115200 baud using this linux command sudo putty
/dev/ttyUSB0 -serial -sercfg 115200,8,n,1,N or run putty as in shown in Figure 11.

Once you have a connection, you should start to see something as shown in Figure 12. This is the
output under Linux with putty.

6.5 Troubleshooting
If there any problems with the ProDK connection to PC some possible solutions might be:
•Make sure that the Host PC is connected to Internet
•Make sure that no old FTDI drivers are installed. Drivers are available from the FTDI website.
•Check for possible cabling issue by using a different USB cable
•Connect the two elements using a different USB port on the host PC
Note:
NOTE
If none of these actions resolved the issue, please contact Dialog Software Forum.
