NTS0304EUK-ARD evaluation board

3.2 Assumptions

Familiarity with the SPI and I

2

C bus is helpful but not required.

3.3 Static handling requirements

CAUTION

This device is sensitive to ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD). Therefore care

should be taken during transport and handling. You must use a ground strap

or touch the PC case or other grounded source before unpacking or handling

the hardware.

3.4 Minimum system requirements

This evaluation board requires a Windows PC workstation. Meeting these minimum

specifications should produce great results when working with this evaluation board.

Computer with Windows 10

One USB port (either 3.0 or 2.0 or 1.1 compatible)

One of three EVK boards (MIMXRT1050-EVK, LPC55S69-EVK, 8MMINILPD4-EVK)

along with the associated firmware / GUI software

USB cable for power and data connection between PC and EVK board (if not included

in the EVK package)

4 Getting to know the hardware

4.1 NTS0304EUK-ARD features

Equipped with SPI / I

2

C digital potentiometer for rapid test and measurements

Equipped with programmable power supplies for logic level combination

On-board SPI / I

2

C-bus connector for easy access from external

On-board jumpers for signal isolation of the DUT

Equipped with Arduino Uno R3 port for direct connection with Arduino devices

Fully compliant with IMXRT1050 EVK board, including GUI (Windows 10)

Fully compliant with LPCXpresso55S69 dev. board, including GUI (Windows 10)

Compliant with i.MX Mini LPDDR4 EVK board, including GUI (Windows 10)

Note: For i.MX Mini LPDDR4 EVK Board it is necessary to use IMX8MMINI-IARD

interposer board between the EVK and NTS0304EUK-ARD daughterboard (see

IMX8MMINI-IARD User Manual).

4.2 Kit featured components

Figure 1

 identifies the main components on the board. The main elements are called

out in the picture. The NTS0304E (U6) is placed in the center of the board. The jumper

headers for signal isolation (J8, and J9) are placed near the DUT.
The Arduino port connectors (J1, J4, J5, J6) are located on the bottom side of the board.
