IOIO For Android- Gathering and Setup Android IOIO Borad

By
Last week, we have shared and briefly introduced with you the info about IOIO board for Android. This USB-connected I/O breakout interface board for Android smartphones and tablets is useful as can be use to control electronic devices, sensor and more. Before we go into software control development part, let us gather and setup the Android IOIO Board.
The board needs to be powered through the VIN pin by  5V-15V power supply with at least 1A of current. The power  VIN can be connect to the Vin pin or JST connector footprint on the bottom of the board.
Be careful, the “3.3v” and “5v” not is Power in or Vin pin. Both of this are the Voltage out pin, as we can use it for control or supply voltage to external devices or component such as LED, servo Motor and others.

Then the remain pin, pin 1 until pin 48 is IO pin. These pin includes pin for I2C clock, Isc data, peripheral in, peripheral I/O and analog in. Photos below are my IOIO board for Android.




Ok, that all about the hardware part. We will discuss how to flash the firmware and boot loader into the IOIO for Android MCU.
