ISL54207EVAL1Z Evaluation Board User’s

Manual

Description

The ISL54207EVAL1Z evaluation board is designed to 
provide a quick and easy method for evaluating the 
ISL54207 USB/CVBS/Audio IC. 

The ISL54207 device is an unique IC. To use this evaluation 
board properly, requires a thorough knowledge of the 
operation of the IC. Refer to the ISL54207 datasheet for an 
understanding of the functions and features of the device. 
Studying the device’s truth table along with its “Pinout” 
diagram on page 2 of the ISL54207 datasheet, is the best 
way to get a quick understanding of how the part works.

A picture of the main evaluation board is shown in Figure 1. 
The ISL54207 µTQFN IC is soldered onto the evaluation 
board. It is located in the center of the board and is 
designated as U1.

The ISL54207 IC is a dual SPDT analog switch that was 
designed to multiplex between mono audio/video (A/V) 
signals or USB differential signals of a portable media player 
such as digital cameras, camcorders, MP3 players and 
cellphones. 

The part has two modes of operation: Audio/Video mode and 
USB mode. The evaluation board contains standard RCA, 
BNC, and USB connectors to allow the user to easily 
interface with the IC to evaluate its functions, features, and 
performance in these two modes of operation. 

For example, when the board is properly powered, the 
video/mono audio outputs of a video MP3 player can be 
connected at RCA connectors J13 (VIDEO IN) and J15 
(MONO AUDIO IN) and the USB output of the player can be 
connected at the USB connector J12 (USB TO DEVICE) on 
the board. See Figure 2 on page 4. A TV can be connected 
at RCA jacks J5 (VIDEO OUT) and J7 (MONO AUDIO OUT) 
to play the video on the TV. You can then turn-off the video, 
disconnected the TV, and attach a USB cable from a 
computer to USB connector J4 (USB TO HOST) to load 
digital video tracks into the player. 

This application note will guide the user through the process 
of configuring and using the evaluation board to evaluate the 
ISL54207 device in both the Audio/Video mode and the USB 
mode.

Board Architecture/Layout

Basic Layout of Evaluation Board

The basic layout of the main board is as follows: Refer to 
Figure 1.

Power (J2), GND (J1), logic VBUS (J3) and logic CTRL (J11) 
banana jack connections are at the top of the board. 

Audio/Video Source RCA inputs are at the lower right side of 
the board (J13 and J15). Audio/Video RCA outputs are at 
the lower left side of the board (J5 and J7).

A standard “B” type USB connection to an upstream host 
controller (Computer) is made at connector J4, located on 
left underside of the board. A standard “A” type USB 
connection to a downstream USB device is made at 
connector J12, located on right underside of the board. 

Located in the center of the board is the ISL54207 IC (U1). 
The evaluation board has a pin 1 dot, to show how the IC 
should be oriented onto the evaluation board. The IC pin 1 
indicator dot needs to be aligned with the evaluation board 
pin 1 dot indicator. 

Note: The connectors J5 (VIDEO OUT) and J7 (MONO 
AUDIO OUT) are connected in parallel to J4 (USB TO 
HOST). When driving the USB input, the A/V output should 
be in a high impedance state (and vice versa).
