DEMO MANUAL DC2228A
operating information
Overview
The DC2228A implements a complete IO-Link Master for
eight ports. Two LTC2874 quad-master IC’s provide power
and signaling for the physical interface (PHY). The IO-Link
stack protocol runs on one core of a dual-core NXP LPC43
microcontroller. The other core runs an Ethernet port for
connecting to a PC running a control program.
A 90W LTPoE++
™
Power over Ethernet system supports
alternative power from sourcing equipment such as a
PoE injector or PoE switch. The LTPoE++ circuits use an
LT4321 ideal diode bridge and an LT4275 PD controller,
and feed into an isolated flyback converter controlled by
an LT3748.
Four IO-Link ports connect directly to the LPC43’s built-
in UARTs, while the remaining four use a port expander
application run by an Atmel SAM4N MCU.
Supporting functional blocks include a step-down switch-
ing regulator that uses an LT3682 to produce a regulated
3.3V supply for both microcontrollers, and a temperature
sensor made with an LTC2997.
Compatibility
The DC2228A and Control Tool software will operate any
device compliant with IEC 61131-9 Single-Drop Commu-
nication Interface (SDCI), commonly known as IO-Link.
Switch and Button Controls
S1:
Power Source Selector. Selects between external 24V
(switch up) and PoE (switch down) sources.
SW1 (RESET):
Resets the NXP microcontroller and Eth-
ernet connection.
SW2 (IP):
Sets the current IP address as the default.
Connectors
J1:
Ethernet jack
J5:
External 24V power
J16:
JTAG programming interface for NXP LPC43 micro-
controller. Factory use only.
J18:
JTAG programming interface for Atmel SAM4 micro-
controller. Factory use only.
J21 to J28:
