Infineon TC397XE Emulation Adapter
Infineon TC397XE Emulation Adapter provides full trace capabilities for the:
· TC397Xx
· TC387QP
· TC3E7Qx
devices, where trace port is not available or lacks the full trace capability.
The Emulation Adapter might differ in some peripherals from the target device,
therefore the device datasheet should be checked.
Infineon TC397XE Emulation Adapter supports the following debug and trace interfaces:
· DAP
· DAPE
· AGBT (Aurora Gigabit Trace)
The Emulation Adapter can also be used as a standalone device for microcontroller evaluation
purposes or for development and testing of an embedded application before the target board
is available.
iSYSTEM Debug and Trace solutions
Trace provides a non-intrusive and deep insight in the embedded application without
influencing real-time behavior. It can be used to debug the most difficult and complex code
defects and offers a complete trace history capture of the program execution.
iSYSTEM BlueBox On-Chip Analyzer combined with the:
· Infineon AGBT Active Probe or
· Infineon DAP/DAPE Active Probe or
· 10-pin 1.27mm Infineon DAP2 Wide Debug Adapter or
· 10-pin 1.27 mm DAP Adapter via Infineon AGBT Active Probe
provides a high-speed connection to the target device using a variety of debug/trace
interfaces. Furthermore, IOM6 accessories enable the synchronous capture of analog and
digital signals in parallel to trace information.
Hardware tools coupled with iSYSTEM winIDEA IDE enable reliable recording of program flow
and data trace. The integrated measurement and visualization tool Analyzer provides a
graphical presentation of execution time analysis and much more.

BGA Adaptation: The Target can have electronic components placed around the
Microcontroller within the Emulation Adapter (EA) "ground floor", which impede
connecting the EA to the Target. In such cases the distance of the EA from the Target
can be optionally increased in steps of 3.25 mm by inserting the optional Extender. Not
more than two Extenders should be used since every connector affects signal integrity.
· With no Extender the lowest point of the EA is approx. 4.35 mm away from the
Target.
· With one Extender the lowest point of the EA is approx. 7.6 mm away from the
Target.
· With two Extenders the lowest point of the EA is approx. 10.85 mm away from the
Target.
Note that by adding the Extender or two, makes the whole setup less robust. Use
caution with Extenders to prevent breaking of the hardware setup or just part of it.

Configuration
J1: Target reset configuration
Jumper J1 connects the Emulation Adapter reset line and the user target board reset line and
is populated by default. Emulation Adapter also features a Reset push button (SW1).
If having problems establishing the initial debug session with the Emulation Adapter, remove
J1 and try again.
J2 and J3: Clock source configuration
Jumpers J2 and J3 select clock source for the emulation device.
Position 1-2 (default position) selects the crystal circuit oscillator
on the Target board.
Position 2-3 selects an external clock source (Q1 socket on the
Emulation Adapter).
The Emulation Adapter may not operate when user target board’s crystal circuit is used
as the clock source. Typical design guideline is that the crystal should be as close as
possible to the microcontroller. The crystal on the user target board might not oscillate
in conjunction with the Emulation Adapter when the clock lines (TP21_2, TP21_3)
between the crystal and the emulation device on the Emulation Adapter become too
long, thus affecting the impedance of the crystal circuit.
Enclosed in the Emulation Adapter package is a separately packed 20 MHz crystal. The
crystal can be used as a 20 MHz external clock (XOSC) source to the emulation device.
If a different clock frequency is required, insert appropriate crystal into the Q1 socket
and replace C7 (default 10pF populated) and C8 (default 10pF populated)
accordingly.
Crystal socket Q1 is per default not populated (NP).

Crystal socket Q1 schematics below:
J4 & J5: GND connection points
In case a good ground connection is required, connection points bridge J4 and pin J5 provide
easy access to the emulation adapter GND potential.
J6 & J7: VFLEX & VAREF
VFLEX - If the target’s VFLEX pin isn’t exposed, set the jumper to the position J6 to connect
VEXT from the target to power VFLEX.
Setting the jumper when emulating the BGA device may brick the emulation or the target
device.

VAREF - If the target’s VAREF2 pin isn’t exposed, set the jumper to the position J7 to connect
VAREF1 from the target to power VARE2
Setting the jumper if VAREF2 is present on the device may brick the emulation or the
target device.
P2: Power supply configuration
EA Power supply is configured via the unshrouded 26-pin 2.54 mm header (P2).

P2 Signal description
By default, all jumpers are set to connect user target power supply to the microcontroller
residing on the Emulation Adapter. Only pins 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, 9-10 and 11-12 must be bridged,
but for the convenience and ease of use, all jumpers are set, except for pins 25-26.
Pin 26 is the polarizer key preventing incorrect connection of the IEA-PS Power converter, when
being plugged in.
If a different power source is used (e.g., a Standalone operation), remove all jumpers and apply
3V3 or 5V to:
· VEXT (pin 2),
· VDDM (pin 4),
· VAREF1 (pin 6),
· VAREF2 (pin 8),
· VEVRSB (pin 10),
· VFLEX (pin 12).
Enclosed Power supply package (Power converter and Power adapter) simply plugs into the
P2 header row, providing the necessary power supply for EA operation. LED1 indicates if power
is supplied to the EA.
Refer to the microcontroller documentation for more details about power voltage designations.

Power supply package
A Power supply package, which is delivered with the Emulation Adapter, is required when:
· The Emulation Adapter is used as a standalone device .
· The target board doesn’t provide an accurate supply voltage.
· The target board doesn’t provide sufficient current for the Emulation Adapter operation.
The Power converter can supply either 3.3 V or 5 V. The array of jumpers J0–J9 selects 3.3 V
or 5 V voltage on the P3 connector, which connects to the Emulation Adapter.

Standalone operation
Infineon TC397XE Emulation Adapter is delivered with all components required for a
Standalone operation:
Power supply
Use enclosed IEA-PS Emulation Adapter Power converter and adapter.
Clock source
If user target’s crystal circuit microcontroller oscillator (if available) is not an adequate clock
source, insert appropriate crystal into the Q1 socket, replace the default 10pF C7 and C8
capacitors when necessary and place jumpers J2 and J3 in 2-3 position.

Measurement board
With the Measurement board you gain easy access to all MCU pins respectively, because
modern targets do not have accessible all the MCU pins / connected signals to connect with a
measurement equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer).
The Measurement board is optional and connects between the Emulation Adapter and the
Conversion Board. It comes together with an applicable Layout board (black panel where all
the CPU signals are nicely marked) that matches your order. The black panel is placed over the
Measurement board.

BGA Assembly
Watch out that pin 1 position and alignment of all pins match when connecting two parts
together.
1. Mount the Solder part on the embedded target PCB.
2. If an optional Extender is used, connect it to the Solder part. The Extender can also provide a
protection from damaging the Solder part if the Emulation Adapter setup is supposed to be
assembled and disassembled during the usage. In such case, it is recommended that the
Emulation Adapter is disconnected from the Extender and not from the Solder part. If the
Emulation Adapter setup needs to be disassembled, be cautious and gentle during this
procedure since all parts of the assembly are very sensitive and pins can easily bent or even
break in worst case.
More Extenders can be stacked to gain height between the Emulation Adapter and the Target.
This is useful if surrounding components around the Solder part are that high that they
prevent connecting the Emulation Adapter. Keep number of Extenders at minimum since every
Extender degrades signal integrity of the electrical signals.

For ordering the correct amount of Extenders, go to the Adaptation packages content.
3. Connect the Emulation Adapter to the Solder part respectively to the Extender when it's
being used.
4. Connect iSYSTEM Debug Adapter or Active Probe to the connector on the Emulation
Adapter.
Gently press the Emulation Adapter with your thumb to the Target board and keep it stable.
With your other hand carefully align the debugger's connecting cable with the matching
connector on the Emulation Adapter. Press the cable carefully straight down until a good
connection is established.
To prevent breaking of the hardware setup or just part of it, avoid disconnecting and
connecting the hardware setup too frequently.
