1.6.3 Hardware Setup Procedures
1.6.3.1
Power Supply to EVM
The design of the EVM allows power to the EVM be supplied from the built-in power supply, which takes
the line input to generate the power needed by the EVM. The EVM also allows power to the EVM be
supplied from user source.
The EVM is shipped with the built-in power supply block installed. If power is to be supplied from external
power supply, disconnect the built-in VSK-S1-3P3U power supply block. Remove the two jumpers on J5,
and apply 3.3 V to VDD and VSS on J5 as shown in
.
CAUTION
Do not supply power to the EVM until the hardware and software setup is
completed.
1.6.3.2
Serial Communication Interface
Connect an RS232 extension cable to the DB-9 connector on the EVM and to a standard RS232 port on a
computer.
1.6.3.3
Line Input and Load Output
•
Solder
the ac source live or dc source positive to LIVE_IN connector.
•
Solder
the ac source neutral or dc source negative to NEUTRAL_IN connector.
•
Solder
the load's live or positive power input to LIVE_OUT connector.
•
Solder
the load's neutral or negative power input to NEUTRAL_OUT connector.
1.6.3.4
Debugging Interface
Spy-Bi-Wire is used on this EVM as the debug interface to external debugger.
Before connecting to MSP-FET430UIF, if the power (while debugging) to the i2040 device is to be
supplied by the FET then short pins 1 and 2 of J8 (toward board edge). If the power (while debugging) to
the i2040 device is to be supplied by voltage on VDD pin, then short pins 2 and 3 of J8 (toward board
center) (see
CAUTION
The debugging interface is NOT ISOLATED; make sure that proper isolation is
in place between the EVM and the PC using for debugging.
NOTE:
Connection to debugging interface is optional for the operation of the EVM. The EVM can
operate standalone without debugger connected.
