Product Overview 1.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter provides an overview of the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board and covers the following topics: * What is the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board? * What the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board kit includes 1.2 WHAT IS THE MCP212X DEVELOPER'S DAUGHTER BOARD? The MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board is used to evaluate and demonstrate the MCP2122 or MCP2120 IrDA(R) Standard Encoder/Decoder device. This allows the system designer to implement a low-cost, wireless IR port in any application providing support for IrDA standard bit encoding/decoding. The MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board is designed to interface to several of the "new" low-cost PICmicro(R) microcontroller-based demonstration (demo) boards, or to be interfaced into your application. Multiple header interfaces are available that allow support for the many different PICDEMTM Demo Boards, as well as being easily jumpered into systems for development purposes. Table 1-1 shows some of the PICDEM demo boards that are supported. Depending on the features of the PICmicro Microcontroller Unit (MCU) and the selected demo board, the MCP2122 TX and RX signals can either be connected (jumpered) directly to the RS-232 line driver or to the PICmicro MCU's RX and TX signals. The PICmicro MCU could process that data and then send it out of the UART.

Please refer to the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board and desired PICDEMTM Demo Board documentation to determine if the boards you are using are supported. For proper orientation of the daugter board to the PICDEMTM demo board, Revision 5 of the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Board is recommended. Revision 4 will function, but the direction of the optical transceiver will be facing the same side as the serial port connector. The MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board allows the MCP212X TX and RX signals to be routed to different header connections. This may allow the system to support multiple configurations, such as being either connected to the PICmicro(R) MCU USART or to the RS-232 driver (allows the MCP212X to directly communicate via the DB-9 connector).

DS51571B-page 15 MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board User's Guide 2.4 MAKING A DEMO SYSTEM The MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board requires a clock source and either a Host Controller or a UART circuit. To demonstrate the board, the easiest method is to use one of the compatible PICDEMTM Demo Boards. A good choice is the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board. This allows the MCP2120 device to interface to either: * PIC18F8722's EUSART1 * PIC18F8722's EUSART2 * PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board's DB-9 connector (MAX3232C) Additional instructions for performing a demo using the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board are shown in Appendix D. "Using the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board with the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board". Appendix E. "Using the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board with the PICDEMTM FS USB Demo Board" supplies instructions for performing a demo using the PICDEMTM FS USB Demo Board. Appendix F. "Configuring the HyperTerminal(R) Program" may be useful for configuring the HyperTerminal program on the PC. System Requirements Table 2-3 shows the requirements for a system that can be used to demonstrate the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board. System Setup The system setup requires a PC with two serial communication ports (UARTs) and HyperTerminal, the system application program. Two PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Boards and two MCP212X Daughter Boards are then needed. Note: The MCP2122 may be installed in U4, or the MCP2120 may be installed in U1. However, these devices should not be installed at the same time. Figure 2-4 shows a system block diagram. TABLE 2-3: Qty Hardware SYSTEM HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS Purpose 1 PC with 2 serial ports The PC will "talk" to each PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board (Encoder/Decoder board) via the serial port and an instance of the HyperTerminal(R) program.

The PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board supports two modes of operation: the Direct-to-PC and Echo modes. In Direct-to-PC mode, the data byte communicates between the MCP2120 and the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board's DB-9 connector (does not communicate with the PIC18F8722). The PIC18F8722 is only used for the 16XCLK signal (for the specified baud rate). In Echo mode, the data byte that is received is "echoed" in the opposite case (lowercase uppercase and uppercase lowercase). The PICDEMTM FS USB Demo Board only supports Echo mode. The source code for these programs are available for download from the Microchip web site (www.microchip.com), as well as being available on the CD-ROM supplied with the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board. To use these programs, it is required that the MPLAB(R) IDE be installed on a computer and that one of Microchip's development tools are available to program the board (such as MPLAB(R) ICD 2).

DS51571B-page 17 MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board User's Guide 2.5 MCP212X DEVELOPER'S DAUGHTER BOARD DESCRIPTION The following sections describe each element of this daughter board in further detail. 2.5.1 Power The MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board is powered by a 5V supply. This voltage supply may be sourced via the PCB headers. When the device is used in conjunction with the appropriate PICDEMTM Demo Board, the power is supplied via the connector interface. If the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board is jumpered into an application circuit via the HD1 connector, the device power supply must be brought over as well. 2.5.2 MCP212X IrDA(R) Standard Encoder/Decoder Device This demo board highlights the MCP2122 device (U4) and MCP2120 device (U1) to demonstrate the implementation of an IR port in an embedded system application. The MCP2120 device handles the encoding/decoding of the UART/IR bit stream. Further Host Controller interface information is available in the device documentation: * MCP2122 Data Sheet, "Infrared Encoder/Decoder" (DS21894) * MCP2120 Data Sheet, "Infrared Encoder/Decoder" (DS21618) * AN946, "Interfacing the MCP2122 to the Host Controller" (DS00946) 2.5.2.1 MCP2122 OPERATION The MCP2122 (U4) implements an IrDA standard encoder/decoder. The baud rate is determined by the frequency of the 16XCLK input. The key signals for the MCP2122-to-microcontroller (Host UART) interface are shown in Table 2-4. The key signals for the MCP2122-to-IR transceiver circuit are shown in Table 2-5.

DS51571B-page 18 (c) 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. Installation and Operation 2.5.2.2 MCP2120 OPERATION The MCP2120 (U1) implements an IrDA standard encoder/decoder. The baud rate is determined by the device frequency and the state of the BAUD2:BAUD0 pins. The MCP2120 also has a Software Baud Rate mode which controls the baud rate via the Host Controller software. The key signals for the MCP2120-to-microcontroller (Host UART) interface are shown in Table 2-6. The key signals for the MCP2120-to-IR transceiver circuit are shown in Table 2-7.

The EN input can be either hard-wired or controlled by the Host Controller. (c) 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. DS51571B-page 19 MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board User's Guide 2.5.3 IR Transceiver Circuit The IR transceiver circuit uses a Vishay(R) TFDU 4300 integrated optical transceiver. Footprints for an optional optical transceiver are implemented. These footprints are for the Vishay TFDU 4100 and the Agilent(R) HSDL-3000. Jumpers are used to allow all three implementations to be installed, but with only one connected to the MCP2120 TXIR and RXIR pins. 2.5.4 Signal Header To allow easy access to many of the system signals, a header (HD1) was placed on one of the edges of the board. This allows the signals from the MCP2120 to be easily accessed and connected into an existing application for initial development or proof-of-concept.

Using the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board with the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board D.1 DEMONSTRATION USING TWO PICDEMTM HPC EXPLORER DEMO BOARDS To perform a demonstration of the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board, two systems are needed. Each system is a MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board (MCP212XEV-DB) plus the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board (DM183022). Figure D-1 shows a block diagram of the demonstation system.

The filename is 00063 - HPC.asm. This code must be programmed into the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board's PIC18F8722 for demo operation. This code supports two demos. The demo executed is dependent on the state of the JP4 jumper. Note: (c) 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. Other PICDEMTM Demo Boards may be used, but appropriate firmware needs to be installed to demonstrate the system. DS51571B-page 31 MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board User's Guide The crystal frequency of the PICDEMTM Demo Board determines the error rates for the EUSART baud rates, as well as the 16XCLK generation (for the MCP2122). So for the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board, the default crystal is 10 MHz (does have a 4x PLL). Therefore, the 16XCLK frequency for 115200 baud has an error outside usable limits for IrDA(R) standard communication for both 10 MHz and 40 MHz operation (see Table D-1). The demo will be limited to 9600 baud. Table D-2 shows the SPBRG values for the EUSART at the same crystal frequencies.

DS51571B-page 38 (c) 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. Using the MCP212X Developer's Daughter Board with the PICDEMTM FS USB Demo Board E.1.1 Demo #1 Operation In Demo #1, the System 2 unit will echo any alpha character received, changing the case of the character (lowercase to uppercase/uppercase to lowercase). The System 1 unit is connected to the PC, while the System 2 unit is not connected, though it still needs to be powered. The PICDEMTM FS USB Demo Board is used to determine the communication baud rate (9600) via the JP3, JP2 and JP1 jumper states. Given this state, the PICmicro(R) MCU can then supply the 16XCLK frequency to the MCP2122. Power is supplied over the J3 interface header. Jumper JP4 is used to select which demo program to run. Figure E-2 shows the jumper configuration for Demo #1. Table E-3 shows the steps for Demo #1.

MCP212X DEVELOPER'S DAUGHTER BOARD USER'S GUIDE Appendix F. Configuring the HyperTerminal(R) Program F.1 CONFIGURING THE HyperTerminal(R) PROGRAM To ensure that the PC is able to communicate to the PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Demo Board, the HyperTerminal program must be properly configured. This section describes the configuration that the HyperTerminal program should be in. The screen-shots shown in Figure F-1 through Figure F-6 show the settings of the HyperTerminal program in the Windows(R) operating system. You should save each configuration of the HyperTerminal program in order to easily distinguish which HyperTerminal program window is "tacking" with which PICDEMTM HPC Explorer Board. After opening the HyperTerminal program window, select Call -> Disconnect. In the lower-left corner, the HyperTerminal program window will indicate "Disconnected". Next, in the HyperTerminal program window, select File -> Properties. The window in Figure F-2 is shown. Ensure that the appropriate COM port is selected for both the "Golden" unit and the "Testing" unit. Then select the Configure button. FIGURE F-1: (c) 2006 Microchip Technology Inc.
