Serial Control Mode (PSN pin = “L”)
When using this evaluation board in serial control mode, settings of the CAD1 pin and the CAD2 pin on the
board must match the Chip Address settings of the control software.
(1) 3-wire Serial Control Mode: (I2C pin= “L”)
(2) I2C Bus Control Mode: (I2C pin= “H”)
The AKD4497-SA should be connected to a PC (IBM-AT compatible) via a USB control box
(AKDUSBIF-B) included in this package. The USB control box is connected to a PC with a USB cable and
the AKD4497-SA with a 10-pin flat cable. (Note 2,Note 3)
Note 2. The AKD4497-SA accepts only one AKDUSBIF-B at one time. It does not operate if two or more
AKDUSBIF-Bs are connected.
Note 3. Connect the 10pin Flat Cable as the red line of the cable is connected to the 1 pin of the 10pin Header
of the board.
