EVM Set-up and Precautions
Figure 2. EVM Schematic
For the first measurements, ignore the common-mode simulation and connect EARTH to GND through a
wire-bridge between pin 1 and pin 2 of TB1.
Figure 3. Bridging DUT_GND with EART_GND
While JMP2 to JMP4 are stimulation points, or headers through which the control and data signals for the
SN65HVD96 are applied, JMP1, and JMP11 to JMP14 are probe points, or headers at which these signal
can be measured.
Note that the 50
Ω
resistors, R2, R3, and R4, have the index n.a., indicating that these components are
not assembled. Because signal generators have a typical source impedance of 50
Ω
, their output is twice
the required signal voltage, assuming that the on-board 50
Ω
resistors divide this voltage down to the
correct signal level.
Without these resistors; however, this voltage divider action is not given, and the generator output voltage
must be reduced to 5 V to avoid damaging the transceiver inputs.
