Introduction
Evaluation Board Features
• One−row Pin Header, Providing the Circuit Signals,
This document describes the NCV7471 EVB board for the
ON Semiconductor NCV7471 System basis chip with a
high−speed CAN and two LIN transceivers with boost−buck
converter and low−drop voltage regulator. The functionality
and major parameters can be evaluated with the NCV7471
EVB board.
NCV7471 is a System Basis Chip (SBC) integrating
functions typically found in automotive Electronic Control
Units (ECUs) in the body domain. NCV7471 provides and
monitors the low−voltage power supplies for the application
microcontroller and other loads, monitors the application
software via a watchdog and includes high−speed CAN and
LIN transceivers allowing the ECU to host multiple
communication nodes or to act as a gateway unit. The
on−chip state controller ensures safe power−up sequence
and supports low−power modes with a configurable set of
features including wakeup from the communication buses
or by a local digital signal WU. The status of several
NCV7471 internal blocks can be read by the microcontroller
through the serial peripheral interface or can be used to
generate an interrupt request.

OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES
• CAN transceiver is configured into LIN Normal mode
NCV7471 is complex SCB device, which needs external
MCU, connected through H1 connector, to control all
functions and settings. However, with basic function of the
converter, LIN and CAN operation, NCV7471 may work in
so called Software Development Mode (SWDM). To
configure NCV7471 into this mode, SWDM pin has to be
tight to VS. Details about board configuration can be found
in the following chapter.
Behavior of NCV7174 in Software Development mode is
following:
• Buck converter is active, delivering +5 V on VOUT.
• Boost converter may be disabled/enabled by connecting
CFG pin to GND/VS (“−”/“+” positions of CFG
soldering strap)
• VOUT2 LDO is disabled by default
– receiver and transmitter are enabled.
• LIN1/2 transceiver is configured into LIN Normal
•
•
mode – receiver and transmitter are enabled.
Watchdog does not need to be served, the device
remains in Normal mode, until it is changed via SPI
command.
RSTN, INTN, VOUT_UVN, FSO1−3 provide their
standard functionality, except of RSTN and FSO1−3
pins, which are not active due to not−serving the
watchdog.
Board Configuration
The NCV7471 evaluation board provides few hardware
configuration options, using soldering straps. Their
functions are described in the table below.

SWDM = GND: Config1/3 (Fail−safe mode not entered after 1st/2nd watchdog service
failure)

FSO1
FSO constantly Low at failure
FSO2
FSO Low for 50%, frequency of 1.25 Hz at failure
FSO3
FSO Low for 20%, frequency of 100 Hz at failure
Special care has to be taken for Standby or Sleep mode
quiescent consumption measurements. Both SWDM and
CFG pins have internal pull−down resistors (typ. 100 kW),
which influence input supply current if they are connected
to VS (typically Software Development Mode with Boost
stage enabled). To measure pure NCV7471 consumption,
these pins should stay Low (GND) or may be pulled up by
external voltage source.
Four on−board LEDs indicate faulty states of the board, as
described in the Table 4.

LED Name
Function
LED_RSTN
Indicates activation of RSTN pin due to the following reasons:
• Sleep/Fail−safe mode (LED_RSTN off due to missing VOUT supply),
• Reset mode (internal or external activation) (5 ms on)
LED_INTN
Indicates activation of INTN pin due to the following reasons:
• Sleep/Fail−safe mode (LED_INTN off due to missing VOUT supply),
• Wake−up event (CAN, LIN1/2, WU, Timer) – configurable via SPI
• Interrupt request – has to be enabled via SPI (1 ms on, 5 ms off)
LED_UVN
Indicates activation of VOUT_UVN pin due to the following reasons:
• Sleep/Fail−safe mode (LED_UVN off due to missing VOUT supply),
• Undervoltage on VOUT pin (VOUT < 4.65 V)
LED_FSO
FSOx pin active due to failure condition (depends on CFG and SPI configuration):
• Thermal Shutdown
• Fatal VOUT failure
• RSTN clamped Low / High
• Watchdog failure (ignored if SWDM is High)
• SPI control bit FSO_ON is set
External Board Connections
For basic evaluation, the board may operate without
external control in the Software Development Mode
(Figure 3). If full functionality is needed, an external
microcontroller has to be attached to the board (Figure 4).
Configuration with and without the control MCU is
shown in the figures below. SWDM and CFG soldering
straps need to be configured to work correctly in both setups.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
VS Supply Input
modulation frequency of 10 kHz and three SPI−selectable
modulation depth values – 10%, 20% or 30% of the nominal
frequency.
VOUT level is monitored by an under−voltage detector
with multiple thresholds:
• Comparison with selectable threshold VOUT_RESx. By
default, the lowest threshold (typ. 3.1 V) applies for the
state machine control and the activation of the RSTN
signal (LED_RSTN on). This reset threshold can be
changed via SPI to any of the four programmable
values.
• A second monitoring signal – UVN_VOUT
(LED_UVN on) – is generated based on comparison of
the VOUT level with the highest monitoring level (typ.
4.65 V).
• VOUT is compared with a fixed threshold VOUT_FAIL
(typ. 2 V). If VOUT stays below VOUT_FAIL level for
longer than t_VOUT_powerup (typ. 1.5 s), a VOUT
short−circuit is detected and Fail−safe mode is entered
(LED_FSO on, if connected).
VS pin of NCV7471 is typically connected to the car
battery through a reverse−protection diode and can be
exposed to all relevant automotive disturbances (ISO7637
pulses, system ESD ...). VS supplies mainly the integrated
LIN transceivers.
VOUT DC/DC Converter
The main application low−voltage supply is provided by
an integrated boost−buck DC/DC converter, delivering a
5 V output VOUT. The converter can work in two modes:
• Buck−only mode is the default mode of the VOUT
power−supply. In this mode, the boosting part of the
converter is never activated and the resulting VOUT
voltage can be only lower than the input line voltage.
Buck−only mode is applied during the initial power−up
(after the VS connection), wakeup from Sleep−mode
and also recovery from the Fail−safe mode, as well as
in the Software Development Mode with CFG pin at
Low level.
• Boost−buck mode ensures that the correct VOUT
voltage is generated even if the input line voltage falls
below the required VOUT level. This mode can be
requested through the corresponding SPI control
register. If selected, the boost−buck mode is used
during Reset, Start−up, Normal, Standby, and Flash
modes. It is also preserved during VOUT
under−voltage recovery through Power−up mode. In
SW Development configuration, boost−buck mode can
be additionally enabled by High level on CFG pin. No
SPI communication is therefore necessary to select the
DC/DC mode in SW Development (see Table 5).
Both UVN_VOUT and RSTN pins provide an open drain
output with integrated pull−up resistor. The split between
reset−generating level VOUT_RESx and an under−voltage
indication allows coping with VOUT dips in case of high
loads coinciding with low input line voltages.
VOUT2 Low−drop Regulator
An integrated low−drop regulator provides a second 5 V
supply VOUT2 to external loads, typically sensors. The
regulator’s input is taken from a dedicated pin VS_VOUT2,
which does not feature an explicit under−voltage
monitoring. VS_VOUT2 would be typically connected to
the VS pin or might be taken from other nodes like, e.g., the
DC/DC converter’s auxiliary node V_MID. “VS_VOUT2”
soldering strap allows connecting VOUT2 LDO input
supply to the VS or the V_MID point.
After a power−up or a reset event, as well as in Sleep
mode, VOUT2 regulator is switched off. In Start−up,
Normal, Standby and Flash modes, it can be freely activated
or deactivated via SPI control register.

Operating States
NCV7471 provides five static operating modes and three
transition states – see Figure 5. Mode setting is done via SPI
registers. Additional details of the NCV7471 operation and
parameters can be found in the corresponding datasheet [1].
By default, the converter works with a fixed switching
frequency 485 kHz nominal. Through the SPI settings, a
switching frequency modulation can be applied with fixed
