1.7  DEMO BOARD TEST SETUP 
The 71M6533-DB Demo Board block diagram is shown in  Figure 1-1. The configuration consists of a stand-
alone  (round)  meter  Demo  Board and  an  optional  Debug  Board.  The  Demo Board contains all circuits 
necessary for operation as a meter, including display, calibration LEDs, and internal power supply. The optional 
Debug Board, uses a separate power supply, and is optically isolated from the Demo Board. It interfaces to a 
PC  through a  9  pin  serial  port connector.  For  serial  communication  between  the  PC and  the  71M6533,  the 
Debug Board needs to be plugged with its connector J3 into connector J2 of the Demo Board. 
The USB-Serial Adapter allows communication between the 71M6533-DB Demo Board and a PC via its USB 
port. 
Connections to the external signals to be measured, i.e. scaled AC voltages and current signals derived from 
shunt resistors or from current transformers, are provided on the rear side of the demo board. 
Caution: It is recommended to set up the demo board with no live AC voltage 
connected, and to connect live AC voltages only after the user is familiar with 
the demo system. 
All input signals are referenced to the V3P3A (3.3V power supply to the chip).
