Pin definition shown in <imgref pcbSchematic>. The return current path for +5V_A is GND_A. This wiring connected to this return path should be capable of carrying the maximum current of the +5V_A line. Since the master controller handles all [[ice:oem_integration#power_sequencing|power sequencing requirements]], the power connections for 5V_A, +15V, and -15V can be applied in any order so long as both ground connections have been established. The master controller will not turn on if any of the required voltages are not present or are out of range. These power entry inputs are also reverse-polarity protected. When the master controller enables power to the daughter boards via the power bus, power is in-rush current limited to less than 10A on the 5V_A line and 3A on the 15V lines.

-This provides two independent asynchronous serial interfaces (USART) to communicate with the ICE-MC1. The serial interface operates at 3.3V signalling levels, 115200 Baud, '8N1' (8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit). Bus idle state is high (3.3V).  The comm (or serial) port to use will be chosen by the USB host computer. See [[ice:commands:overview|commands overview]] page for usage of the serial port. One can be assigned to a USB<->Serial interface if desired. The TXO (transmit out) and RXI (receive in) nomenclature is from the perspective of the device external to the Master Controller. TXO is for an external device transmitting data into the ICE-MC1. RXI is for the ICE-MC1 sending data out to an external device. Either USART bus can be used to receive commands, but **not** simultaneously (e.g. interleaved). In the [[ice:enclosure|ICE Platform Enclosure]], USART channel 1 is assigned to a USB<->Serial converter and USART channel 2 is assigned to an external connector for direct TTL serial control from an embedded system or DAC card.+

 === Power Switch === === Power Switch ===
 A momentary push button switch can be connected from SWITCH to GND_D. Briefly pulling SWITCH to ground (for longer than 10 ms) will toggle power to the Master Controller and daughter boards. When powering down, the switch will wait 1 second before turning off power the the Master Controller, allowing the Master Controller time to safely shutdown all daughter boards. The default behavior is that when power is applied to the Master Controller through the Power Entry connector, the board remains in an completely power off state (including the microcontroller on the Master Controller) and no serial commands will be acknowledged. The SWITCH signal must be pulled low to turn on the Master Controller, after which commands can be sent to power on or off the daughter boards. The LED+ and LED- signals can be connected to an LED to indicate power state. LED+ is connected 5V and LED- is connected through a 249 Ohm resistor and transistor to ground. A momentary push button switch can be connected from SWITCH to GND_D.

 === Internal Bus Headers === === Internal Bus Headers ===
 The Master Controller routes power and communications to daughter modules through a set of 3, 0.1" pitch pin headers located on either side of the board and in the middle. The Master Controller routes the raw 5V_A, +15V, and -15V to these headers from the main power entry connector through power conditioning circuitry. The power conditioning circuitry consists of electronic fuses for protection against fast transients, reverse polarity protection, overvoltage and undervoltage detection, and overcurrent protection on each power rail. The Master Controller will clamp inrush current when power is applied to the daughter modules so that the main power supply feeding the power entry connector does not experience power sag during turn on. Should a fault condition occur on either the 5V, +15V, or -15V line, the Master Controller will shutdown all power rails safely. The +12V and -12V power rails are regulated from the 15V inputs on the Master Controller with low-dropout regulators. The center header, which contains 5V_D power for digital circuitry, also carries the [[ice:event_system|Event System]] GPIO lines and the global I2C communications bus (SDA and SCL). The Master Controller routes power and communications to daughter modules through a set of 3, 0.1" pitch pin headers located on either side of the board and in the middle.
