Evaluation Kit Contents and Overview
The ZSSC4151 SSC Evaluation Kit is designed for sensor module evaluation, laboratory setup, and module
calibration development for the ZSSC4151 Sensor Signal Conditioner (SSC). The user’s sensor module can be
connected to the kit for development, evaluation, and calibration. Alternately, the kit provides a sensor
replacement board that can be connected in place of an actual sensor module for basic evaluation purposes only.
The ZSSC4151 Evaluation Kit consists of the following parts:
•
SSC Communication Board (SSC CB) V4.1 *
•
ZSSC415x/6x/7x SSC Evaluation Board (SSC EB) V1.1
•
SSC Sensor Replacement Board (SRB) V2.0
•
6 ZSSC4151 samples (QFN24 4x4mm)
•
USB cable
•
Vacuum suction pen (provided for safe handling of IC samples)
Note: The ZSSC4151 Evaluation Software required for the ZSSC4151 SSC Evaluation Kit is not included with the
kit. This software is available for download from the ZSSC415x product page or by contacting IDT (for contact
information, see page 10). It provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for communication, calibration, and
evaluation. Refer to the
ZSSC4151 Evaluation Kit Startup Guide
for instructions for setting up the kit hardware,
connections, and software.
Note: The ZSSC415x/6x/7x SSC Evaluation Board is also used in kits for other products, so some of the
ZSSC4151 pin names differ from the board and schematic labels. See Table 2.4 for the corresponding pin names.
Note: There is a “dummy” IC in the socket on the ZSSC415x/6x/7x SSC Evaluation Board that should be replaced
with an actual ZSSC4151 device under test (DUT). Refer to Figure 1.1 for the location of pin 1 for proper IC
orientation.
