Serial Ethernet2 additional board
Serial Ethernet2
The Serial Ethernet2 additional board is used to connect a development system to the Ethernet communication
network.
Key features:
- Serial SPI communication;
- IEEE 802.3 standard supported;
- 3.3V or 5V power supply voltage;
- Voltage translators to provide systems with different voltage levels.
How to connect the board?
The Serial Ethernet2 board can be easily connected to a development system via a 2x5 connector CN1. This connector
is connected to a development system port that is used for serial SPI communication. Depending on the development
system in use, it is necessary to set the appropriate switch on the DIP switch SW1 to the ON position, table 1. The
power supply voltage of the additional board depends on the development system the board is connected to. If the
board is connected to a 5V development system, jumper J1 should be placed in the 5V position. Likewise, if the board
is connected to a 3.3V development system, jumper J1 should be placed in the 3.3V position. The RJ45 connector CN5
is used to establish connection between the additional board and Ethernet network. A LED marked POWER indicates
whether the additional board is turned on or off. The additional board uses LEDs marked LEDA and LEDB to indicate
data transfer through the Ethernet network.
