2 Hardware Description

This section describes every hardware module of the Ingenic Newton development board. For

details of the JZ4775, please refer to the datasheet and programmer guide of the JZ4775. For

details of each component, please refer to relative component datasheet. For details of the board,

please refer to board schematic.

2.1 Picture of the Newton Board

Figure 2-1 shows the picture of the main components and connectors of the Newton board. The

board size is 22 x 38mm.

2.2 Power

Newton board can be powered by USB and by a Li-on battery. The battery can only get 500mA from

the USB. Connect the Li-on battery with the board and press the POWER button, the ONKEY signal

of PMU will be pulled low. When PMU get this signal, it will power the system and send out a RESET

signal, the system starts working. You can press the POWER button keeping a few seconds to shut

down the system (controlled by software). When CPU receives the POWER signal, it will control

PMU to turn off the power of system by the SMB bus. If there is something out of control, you can

press the POWER button for 7.5 second; PMU will turn off the power and then reset the system.

The PMU chip is Dialog DA9024, powered +3.3V, +1.8V, +1.2V, +2.5V for system, VCORE of

DA9024 output +2.5V for RTC controller through a diode.

2.3 System Reset

When power on, PMU provides a RESET signal to CPU. When the system is power on, you can

press the POWER button for 7.5 second, and then the PMU will output a RESET signal to CPU.

2.4 System boot mode

The Newton board has 2 boot modes:

 USB

2.7 USB interface

The Newton board supports USB 2.0 device, it has 4 test points. When you insert the USB, the

board will be powered on.

2.8 Audio System

2.8.1 MIC

The Newton board supports a digital MIC in the external board.

2.8.2 Speaker

The Newton board can drive a piezoelectric ceramic speaker.

2.9 WIFI&BT&NFC

The Newton board integrates a WM-BAN-BM-13 module, which can communicate to other device

with WIFI or BT or NFC.

When using WIFI, the battery power is required. When using NFC, the antenna needs to make

changes based on the different usage of the antenna matching circuit.

2.10 Button Interface

There are two buttons, one is the POWER button and another is the RETURN button.

2.11 ECG Sensor

There is an ECG sensor on the Newton board. It can communicate to CPU by UART2. The ECG

sensor is optional and not provided default on delivery.

The cable and electrode requirements of the ECG sensor are as follows:

1) Material: The electrodes should be a metal with good conductivity, stainless steel 316L is

recommended.

2) Area: The area that the electrode contacted with the skin should be as large as possible,

100mm

2

at least. The larger area electrode has, the better the signal quality is.

3) Connection: The POGO pin, spring or shielding line can be used to contact the electrode with

the PCBA. Make sure that the input impedance of the ECG is less than 20m. The outside of the

shielding wire should be connected with analog ground.

4) When using, press the electrode with moderate strength, and hold the position fixed. If the

strength is changed, the input impedance will change, and then the ECG effect will be affected.

5) When using ECG, it is better to use battery as power supply.
