Advanced User Interface
There are two methods for communicating with the
device. The first is through the window shown in
Figure 2. The second is through the Advanced User
Interface window shown in Figure 3. The Advanced
User Interface window becomes available by selecting
the Options | Interface (Advanced User) menu item and
allows execution of serial commands manually.
The Advanced User Interface window can also be
used as a debug tool because it is capable of manually
reading and writing to every register and logic pin of the
device.
Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAX14824 EV kit provides a proven layout for the
MAX14824 IO-Link master transceiver.
All the power-supply and regulator input and output
pins are connected to convenient connectors for easy
probing. The device logic input and output pins are also
provided with convenient connectors for logic testing.
As an option, the user can also connect their own SPI
controller to access the device registers.
The transceiver’s C/Q and DI pins are protected by
Semtech SDC36C TVS diodes.
See Table 1 for a description of all the EV kit jumper
configurations.
