Features

•Easy Evaluation of the SP336E Transceiver

•RS-232 and RS-485 Protocols

•Local or Remote Loop Back testing

•10Mbps Differential Transmission Rates

•Test point for cable or jumper loop-back

Description

The SP336 Evaluation Board is designed to analyze the SP336 multi-protocol transceiver.

The evaluation board provides access points to all of the driver and receiver I/O pins so that the

user can measure electrical characteristics and waveforms of each signal. The evaluation board

also has a switch to allow the user to select the mode of operation and slew control.

Furthermore, the SP336 Evaluation Board provides the means to test both local and remote

driver/receiver loop-back.

This Manual is split into sections to give the user the information necessary to perform a

thorough evaluation of the SP336. The “Layout” section describes the I/O pins, jumpers and the

other components used on the evaluation board. The layout diagram is also covered. The “Using

the SP336 Evaluation Board” section details the configuration of the SP336 evaluation board for

parametric testing.

Using the SP336 Evaluation Board

MODE CONFIGURATION

The SP336 uses a 3 bit decoder to define the protocol selected. The mode selection truth table

is shown in the data sheet and in Table 3. The SP336E supports eight distinct operating modes.

Modes are set using the three Mode-Configuration input pins M0, M1, and M2, which correspond

to SW3 (to the right is zero and to the left is one). The driver and receiver electrical

characteristics and the pin functions change depending on the mode selected.

Figure 1- Mode Configuration

Table 2 is a matrix describing all the possible modes for the SP366 and lists the jumper settings

for each mode. The Driver inputs, SLEW, MODE and the Loop back are all define an operating

mode. The modes are listed in the first column. The inputs to T1_In (TP32 & TP44), T2_In (TP31

& TP43), T3_In (TP30 & TP42) and T4_In (TP14 & TP8) can be made using the 50 Ohm

terminated resistor. Set the SP336 for the mode to be tested. Channels can also be connected

high or low individually by the test points mention above and reference in Table 1.

Slew rate control for the SP336E drivers is logic selectable using the SLEW pin which is

connected to SW3-4 “1”. Connecting SW3-4 (Left) provides high speed and no slew limiting

while SW3-4 “0” (Right) limits the driver slew rate.

Local loop back diagnostic mode for RS232 is provided “on chip” by using logic programmable

mode 000. Local loop back testing for RS485/422 mode is also provided on the evaluation board

and can be implemented using the headers (Sw3-1 is Mode 0, SW3-2 is Mode 1 & SW3-3 is

Mode 2). Set mode input logic to 101 to define RS485/422 mode. Follow Table 4 and jumper

from test point to test point to Loopback.

Refer to Table 1 for the desired inputs and outputs for loading. Loading the receiver outputs can

be done thru test points on Table 4. Remember that the receiver acts as one load when

connected to a driver output in a loop back configuration.
