5.1 CryptoAuth Trust Platform Connections

The 2-lead µVSFN has a dedicated SWI-PWM connection through the mikroBUS header that enables it to connect to the mikroBUS host header present on the Trust Platform or any of the PIC/AVR/SAM MCU host development boards that have a mikroBUS header. The SWI-PWM connection is always connected to the host micro on the Trust Platform board.

Connecting the 2-Lead µVSFN to the CryptoAuth Trust Platform

  1. Configure the EV98D91A to the desired mode as specified in Modes of Operation.
  2. Set the switches on the CryptoAuth Trust Platform to disable the on-board devices. Note that the SW2_1 switch will have no effect on this mikroBUS board. This setting is highlighted in bold and italic below:

    N/AOFFYesNo
  3. Connect the two boards as shown in the following figure.

    Remember: The angled notch on the 2-lead µVSFN must be aligned with the angled line on the silk screen near the mikroBUS connector.
  4. Connect a USB cable between the CryptoAuth Trust Platform on the host system where the software is developed.
  5. Invoke the software tools for the given application or the use case that is being developed.
