13), 14), 15) USB 2.0 and UART
The WE310F5-I/P interface has one USB port and two UART ports as shown in the figure
below.
Two UART: one 2-wires UART0 and one 4-wires high speed UART1 port. Both ports have an
independent FTDI chipset to translate the UART to USB.
Figure 8: USB and UART Ports
16), 17) EVB power configuration for measuring current consumption (PL202 –
PL204)
The power configuration jumper position and the description are shown below:
WE310F5-I/P EVB Hardware User Guide
1VV0301663 Rev.3 Page 14 of 23 2020-10-07
Figure 9: Power Configuration jumpers (PL202-PL204)
Basically, the jumper PL202, PL203, PL204, are used to separate each power lines from the
rest of the EVB to allow current consumption tests.
3V3 Power:
• Place jumper on PL203 1-2 and PL204 1-2, allows to supply the 3.3V to Wi-Fi module
• Place jumper on PL203 1-2 and PL202 1-2, allows to supply the 3.3V to another device
(like USB to UART block) which use 3.3V.
1V8 Power:
• Place jumper on PL203 5-6, allows to supply the 1.8V to audio codec.
Slide switch located on the right side of the above Figure 9:, allows to supply or cut the EVB
main power.
• ON: Allow to supply the power to EVB.
• OFF: Allow to cut the power to EVB.
Current consumption measurement jumper and description are as shown below:
Figure 10: Current Consumption Measurement
Measure the module current consumption:
• Place jumper on PL203 1-3 and 2-4.
• Remove jumper on PL203 5-6 and PL202 1-2.
• Place jumper on PL201 1-2 or 2-3 based on status of the module.

General Information on Power Supply
This EVB is mainly designed for SW development,
The board can be power supplied in different ways:
1) Direct USB supply by means of a USB cable (5V, 500mA) on micro b USB connector.
EVB power can be supplied though all three USB connector.
2) By plugging Arduino on the bottom side, if you supply Arduino Uno-Rev3 board with its
own supply source (Arduino Shield)
The WE310F5-I/P is not able to supply the Arduino board.
The power sources 1-2 activate a DC/DC and an LDO that create the 3V3 and 1V8 necessary
to the board operation.
Program and Run the WE310F5-I/P Module
To Program and Run the module, please refer to WE310F5 AT Command Guide for more
details.
