FRDMDUALK3664EVB evaluation board
5 Getting ready
Working with the FRDMDUALK3664EVB requires the kit contents, additional hardware,
and software, depending on the use case.
5.1 Kit contents
• Assembled and tested evaluation board in an anti-static bag
• 50 cm transformer physical layer (TPL) bus cable
• Quick start guide
5.2 Additional hardware
• Use with the S32K3x4EVB-Q172 (recommended)
• Use with other microcontroller platform (requires breadboard design)
• Use as standalone EVB, requires 5.0 V, 200 mA power supply (optional 3.3 V power
supply 200 mA), and signal stimulation with signal generator
6 Getting to know the hardware
6.1 Kit overview
The FRDMDUALK3664EVB is a hardware tool for evaluation and development and is
ideal for rapid prototyping of an isolated network high-speed transceiver. It can be used
to evaluate the features of the MC33664A device.
The evaluation board allows the user to connect serial peripheral interface (SPI) signals
from the MCU to the device and be able to create bit pulses transmission to the bus
through the transformer. The messages received by the device can be converted bit by
bit and transferred to the MCU by SPI.
6.1.1 FRDMDUALK3664EVB features
• Two MC33664ATL1EG isolated communication transceivers in a SO16 package
• Isolated communication by transformers with connector
•
Single TPL chain interface (requires two SPIs)
• Dual TPL chain interface (requires three SPIs)
• Compatible to S32K3x4EVB-Q172
• Connector for FTDI USB-to-serial cable (TTL-232R-5V)
Note: The FRDMDUALK3664EVB does not support the fault line feature.
