S5335DK Developer Kit
January 26, 2005


The CD-ROM contains three folders: S5335 Hardware, S5335 Software, and S5335 Documentation.

To begin using the S5335DK developer kit, please read the S5335DK User Manual.  The file is located in /S5335 Documentation/Dev Kit Manual.


S5335 Documentation:
--------------------------------
This directory contains S5335 development kit user manual and S5335 data sheet.  Please visit www.amcc.com for the latest data sheet revision.


S5335 Hardware:
------------------------
This directory contains schematics, bill of materials, PCB design, and CPLD code.


S5335 Software:
----------------------
This directory contains all of the software for use with the 5335 Development 
Board. Included are the following:


5335 Application Installation:
----------------------------------------
This directory contains the installaion files for the 5335 PCI Development Board
Application, AMCCPCI5335Win.exe and AMCCPCIAddOn5335Win.exe. These applications is used to set and read the many 
control and status bits found in the 5335.  AMCCPCI5335Win.exe is used for PCI initiated bus master operation and AMCCPCIAddOn5335Win.exe is used for AddOn side initiated bus master operation.

The installation procedure is outlined in Chapter 3 of the 5335 Developer's Kit Manual.

Source code for this application is NOT included on the CDROM.


5335 Driver Installation:
--------------------------------
This directory contains the system driver (siwdm.sys) for the 5335 PCI Development Board 
and the associated INF files required to install the board and drivers in the Windows 
system.

The installation procedure is outlined in Chapter 3 of the 5335 Developer's Kit Manual.

Source code for this driver is NOT included on the CDROM.


5335 NVRAM Tool Application:
-------------------------------------------
This directory contains the source code files for the 5335 PCI Development Board
NVRAM Tool Application. This apprication is used to set and read the NVRAM on the
5335 Development Board. This applications requires the Microsoft Visual C/C++, 
Version 6.0 (or later) C compiler in order to be modified and compiled. The
directory:

    "5335 Software\5335 NVRAM Tool Application\Win_2K_NVRAM_Tool\sidev\siddk\
             siddk_amcc\apps\amcc\AMCCPCIWin"

contain the Visual C/C++ progect files (AMCCPCI3Win.dsw) for the application.

Additionally, this directory includes the source code for the system driver for the
NVRAM Tool which can be compiled and installed. 

In order to compile this system driver, the appropriate Device Driver Kit (DDK) for the 
Windows system to be used must be installed, along with an appropriate C compiler, such 
as Microsoft Visaul C/C++, Version 6.0.

                           ** WARNING ** 
This driver does NOT support all the functions required by the AMCCPCI5335Win.exe 
application, and if this NVRAM version of the system driver is installed over the top of 
the full version, the AMCCPCI5335Win.exe will not function properly. 

                           ** WARNING ** 
Writing Windows drivers is NOT for the inexperienced. Installing and using the Windows
DDK requires a certain amount of programming expertise.

The installation procedure is outlined in Chapter 2 of the 5335 Developer's Kit Manual.



5335 NVRAM Files:
---------------------------
This directory contains a few NVRAM image files that can be burned into the NVRAM of the
5335 PCI Development Board using either the AMCCPCI5335Win.exe or the NVRAM Tool application. 
All files are in the Intel Hex format. The files are:

5335_io_mem.hex		Defines BADDR0 as I/O mapped, BADDR1-BADDR4 as memory mapped
5335_mem_mem.hex	Defines BADDR0-BADDR4 as memory mapped
5335_EXBIOS.hex         Sample NVRAM program that defines BADDR0-BADDR4 as memory mapped and 
                          includes a BIOS function called at boot time

The 5335_mem_mem.hex file is the image that is customarily burned into the NVRAM and shipped
with the 5335 Developemnt Board.
