AVR32913: EVK1105 Getting Started Guide

Features

• Powering up the board

• Preparing the board for audio playback

• Playing music

1 Introduction

The EVK1105 is a reference design and development system for the AVR32

AT32UC3A0512 microcontroller from Atmel Corporation. The kit is equipped with a

rich set of memories and peripherals that make the EVK1105 to a perfect audio

platform. This guide shows the user how to get quickly started with this kit.

2 Powering up the board

The EVK1105 offers three interfaces to power the board, from one of the two USB

interfaces or from an external source connected to the header J1. The board can be

powered from 3 different sources, external power supply, “USB VCP” and “USB

USER” connector. If two power sources are applied at the same time the following

priorities are used to select the current valid power source:

1. External power supply (header J1)

2. USB VCP

3. USB USER

That means that if an external power supply is connected to the board it has the

highest priority and will therefore serve as current power supply. Other power

supplies that are connected to the board at the same time will be ignored.

The input range on the external power supply header is from 3.3V to 5V. In order to

be able to supply external USB devices that are connected to the board the minimal

power supply specification should be 5V, 1A. This ensures that the board will work

properly if a USB device is connected that needs the maximum allowed 500mA as

specified in the USB specification. It is not possible to draw that amount of current

from the host through a normal USB cable but there are cables available that can be

connected to two hosts (such a cable is not a kit content).

In order to play music from a mass-storage device it is enough to power the board

from the USB VCP connector. Use the “Mini-B plug to std-A plug 1.5m USB2.0” cable

that is included in the kit and connect it between the host and the board USB VCP

connector.

More information about the different power inputs is available in the hardware user’s

guide.

When the board is powered the green LED, marked with “PWR”, will light up and the

default board firmware will start to run.

3 Preparing the board for audio playback

In order to play some music a USB mass-storage device must be connected to the

“USB USER” connector by using the “Mini-A plug to std-A receptacle” adaptor cable.

The adaptor cable is a kit content.

The default audio output should be configured to use the on board codec and thus the

jumpers on J6 should be set as indicated in the figure if not already set up like this.

Connect a headphone or speaker to the jack in order to listen to the music.

4 Browsing the disk and playing music

After a mass-storage device has been connected to the USB-USER port the player

enters the disk browsing view. To control the application the touch sensors can be

used that are marked in the Figure 4-1.

4.1 Disk browsing view

In this view it is possible to browse the storage media but only MP3 files and

directories will be shown. Use the touch sensors to browse the storage media for the

music file or playlist you want to play.

UP: Browse the file list up.

DOWN: Browse the file list down

LEFT: Enter the parent directory. If the user is in the root directory of the current

selected storage media a touch of this button will result in a menu which lets the

user select a storage media.

RIGHT: Enter a subdirectory or play the currently selected file or playlist.

CENTER: Play the currently selected file or playlist.

By playing a file or a playlist the audio player will change its view from the disk view to

the play view.

4.2 Play view

Following functionality have the touch sensors in the play view.

UP: Increase the volume.

DOWN: Decrease the volume.

LEFT: Play previous song in playlist or on disk.

RIGHT: Play the next song in playlist or on disk.

CENTER: If pressed short ( < 2s) pause the current song or play it again if we are

in the pause state. If pressed long ( > 2s) enter disk browsing view.
