Overview
The
kit features:
•
data, control, and power lines protection
•
a plug and a receptacle that allow inserting a PCB between a host and a cable, or a device and a cable
Two kits are available to be ordered separately. Each kit contains an evaluation board and a testing board, as
described below.
The STEVAL-OET005VC kit provides a protection solution of all lines (data, control, and power) in a 500 µm pitch
package. This kit contains the STEVAL-OET005C evaluation board and the STEVAL-OET005E testing board.

The STEVAL-OET005VD kit provides a protection and filtering solution (common mode filters and protection for
all lines) in a 500 µm pitch and 0201 package. This kit contains the STEVAL-OET005D evaluation board and the
STEVAL-OET005E testing board.

How to use the kit
Step 1.
Before using the STEVAL-OET005C and STEVAL-OET005D, solder the bridge setup: shunt the solder
bridge corresponding to the maximum voltage of VBus (5 V, 9 V, 15 V, or 20 V).
Warning:
The power supply voltage must be lower than or equal to the VBus voltage
selected on the evaluation board. Otherwise, the protection device (TVS)
may burn if the power supply is not protected against overcurrent.
