the D+ line of the J1 (USB To HOST) connector. These BNC 
connectors can be used to connect resistive loads and/or 
test equipment to evaluate the performance of the IC.

USB Connections

A “B” type USB receptacle labeled “USB TO HOST” (J1) is 
located on the left under-side of the board. This receptacle 
should be connected, using a standard USB cable, to the 
up-stream USB host controller which is usually a PC 
computer or hub. When this connection is made and the IN 
logic control is driven HIGH, the ISL54211 device will go into 
USB mode. The USB switches will be turned ON.

An “A” type USB receptacle labeled USB TO DEVICE (J2) is 
located on the right under-side of the board. The USB device 
can be plugged directly into this receptacle or through a 
standard USB cable. 

In USB mode the USB host controller and USB device will 
be connected through the internal USB switches of the IC. 
The USB switches are bi-directional which allow the host 
(computer) and downstream USB device to both send and 
receive data.

Note: Before connecting the USB host controller at 
connector J1, the headphones must be removed from the 
headphone speaker jack, J7. This will prevent the audio load 
from interfering with USB signal transmission. 

The main purpose of the ISL54211 device is to allow the use 
of a common USB and Audio Headphone Connector in 
Personal Media Players and other portable battery powered 
equipment. Either a headphone will be in the common 
connector to play music or a USB cable from a computer will 
be in the common connector to transmit digital data, such as 
music, into the memory of the media player.

The BNC connector J8 (COM-) is in parallel with the D- line 
of the J1 USB connector. The BNC connector J9 (COM+) is 
in parallel with the D+ line of the J1 USB connector.

The BNC connector J14 (D-) is in parallel with the D- line of 
the J2 USB connector. The BNC connector J15 (D+) is in 
parallel with the D+ line of the J2 USB connector. If you want 
to use the J14 and J15 BNC connectors you must populate 
R1 and R2 with 0

Ω

 resistors. These BNC connectors can be 

used to connect test equipment to evaluate the performance 
of the IC.
