netRAPID H90

netRAPID H90 (NRP H90) chip carriers have been developed in order to ease the development of hardware using the netX 90.

The Evaluation kit for NRP H90 will be available end of Q3/2019.

The Hilscher Platform Strategy provides the whole range of communication solutions to the user – from a standardized PC Card up to the integration of the multi-protocol chip netX.

All solutions – whether Master or Slave – have the same interface to the application and use the same tools.

Thus, you are able to start your software development for NRP H90 on the netX 90 software development board already today.

netX Studio CDT

For application development, netX 90 SoC and NRP H90 use the same tool. 

netX Studio CDT is an integrated development environment that includes all components required to configure, develop and debug embedded applications.

Hardware configuration

With netX Studio CDT, the hardware configuration of a netX device has never been so easy.

Just drag the application peripherals, network or host interfaces you want to implement and drop it into the “Pin Assignment” GUI.

The intuitive graphical user interface offers several options to customize your hardware configuration.

Pin Assignment GUI

The hardware configuration GUI for NRP H90 will differ from the netX 90 GUI.

Nevertheless, you are able to create a hardware configuration for NRP H90 while oberserving the following steps.

1. Download latest netX Studio CDT Version
2. Create a new Hardware configuration for netX 90 as described in the getting started guide
3. Please notice that NRP H90 does not feature the sampe hardware configuration options like netX 90 SoC.
   To create a hardware configuration for NRP H90 you are able to select and configure the following Signals:

Shared signals

As you might have noticed, some signals are shared, so that they cannot be selected at the same time. The following table shows the dependencies between the signals:

RED netX 90 Pins, that cannot be selected by NRP H90

YELLOW netX 90 Pins, that can be selected by NRP H90

GREEN netX 90 Pins, that are recommended by NRP H90 Design-in guide

GREY netX 90 Pins, that are not selectable and therefore also NRP H90 Pins
