1Starting up

The C027 is a complete starter kit that allows quick prototyping of a variety of applications for the Internet of

Things. The application board has a MAX-7Q GNSS receiver and a LISA or SARA cellular module, enabling

straightforward development of location-aware, global communicating applications. The application board

provides access to Ethernet and CAN interfaces, and to a variety of HW interfaces (22 GPIOs with SPI, I2C, UART,

I2S) through a standard-based header connector.

The board is powered by a Cortex-M3 microprocessor, which is fully supported by the mbed platform. The CPU

has 512 kB flash, 64 kB RAM, and runs at 96 MHz. The board provides simple USB drag-n-drop programming

and a CMSIS-DAP debug interface for the target microcontroller. The mbed platform provides free software

libraries and online tools for professional rapid prototyping. The programming is done using a standard-based

C/C++ SDK. The mbed compiler also supports full export to different tool chains, for projects that demand it as

they go to production.

C027-U20/C20/G35 supports different cellular technologies via the u-blox nested design concept:

GSM/GPRS: C027-G35 (SARA-G350 mounted)

W-CDMA: C027-U20 (LISA-U200 mounted)

CDMA 1xRTT: C027-C2 (LISA-C200 mounted)

This document indentifies all the variants as C027.

Getting started with mbed

UBX-13004386 - R01 Objective Specification Page 8 of 10

2Getting started with mbed

2.1 Board setup and settings

Insert the SIM card into the SIM connector (SIM card holder, not required for CDMA variants).

Connect the cellular antenna with SMA connector to the cellular main antenna SMA female connector.

Connect the GNSS antenna with SMA connector to GNSS antenna SMA female connector.

2.2 Board power supply

Connect a power supply to the “7 –17 V Power Input”connector (power supply is not included in the kit).

Provide power supply between 7 and 17 V to “VIN” pin of the row connector.

The 2 ways to supply the board are mutually exclusive.

2.3 Windows serial configuration

The mbed serial port works by default on Mac and Linux, but Windows needs a driver. The driver is available in:

https://mbed.org/handbook/Windows-serial-configuration.

2.4 Board interface settings

Connect a USB cable to the ”USB B”connector. Status light DPWR (green LED) will come on.

Connect the other interfaces (CAN, Ethernet) as needed.

The board is ready.

2.5 Getting started with mbed

Up-to-date information on how to operate the C027 starter kit within the mbed development environment

is available in: www.mbed.org/users/ublox/notebook/u-blox-C027-Getting-Started.
