Connections to

STK500 / STK501

The ATADAPCAN01 module is intended for use with the STK500 and STK501 starter

kits. The STK501 holds the 64-pin TQFP ZIF socket for the AT90CAN128 part, and is a

top-module board for the AVR starter-kit STK500. The ATADAPCAN01 requires con-

nections to the CANTx and CANRx signals on the AVR device, as well as Vcc and GND

connections. The ATADAPCAN01 board can be connected to the starter-kits in one of

three possible ways:

•

Individual signal wiring to PORTD. Using three 2-wire cables provided with the

STK500 kit, make the following connections:

–

STK500 PD5 (pin6) to ATADAPCAN01 PORTD pin 6 (CANTx)

–

STK500 PD6 (pin7) to ATADAPCAN01 PORTD pin 7 (CANRx)

–

STK500 GND & VTG to ATADAPCAN01 PORTD pins 9 & 10

•

Flat-cable connection to PORTD. Using a 10-wire flat-cable provided with the

STK500 kit, connect the PORTD header of the STK500 to the PORTD header of the

ATADAPCAN01, as shown in figure 1. Care should be taken to use the correct pin

orientation.

Direct mounting onto PORTD. A second PORTD header is routed (but not mounted) on

the ATADAPCAN01 (J8). By attaching a matching 10 pin socket to the underside of the

board, it can be mounted directly onto the STK500 PORTD header. The top-side

PORTD header on the ATADAPCAN01 board can then be used to access other PORTD

pins.
