This user’s guide utilizes the M1 System Management Board, the System Management software and examples to
demonstrate System Management’s capabilities. It can also be used as a reference design to jumpstart user application
designs, including a firmware platform for re-use. Design examples for the older CoreMP7-enabled board, featuring the
M7AFS600 device, may still be found on the Actel web site. Only Cortex-M1-enabled designs should be used with the
M1-SYSMGMT-DEV-KIT board.
The System Management software enables the user to run tests for demonstration purposes, using a laptop or PC
connected via serial communications link to the board. These are the main features:
• View the board's status in real-time.
• Observe all voltages, current and temperature in specific places on the board for real-time diagnostics.
• Test asynchronous buttons on the board and view the result in the software upon depressing any given button.
• Threshold control and event logging to control the warning limits within a given range and log specific events as a result
Future releases will extend the capabilities to include power sequencing and a range of other more advanced features.
