AN4284 Application note STEVAL-IFP022V1 demonstration board for the VNI8200XP octal high side driver By Massimo Oteri Introduction The STEVAL-IFP022V1 is a demonstration board for the IPS VNI8200XP, a monolithic 8channel high side driver featuring very low supply current, with an integrated SPI interface and a high efficiency 100 mA micropower step-down switching regulator. The STEVAL-IFP022V1 provides a 4-row, 2-column LED matrix, allowing detection of the status of each output line. The LED matrix is supplied by the step-down regulator integrated in the VNI8200XP device. The same integrated regulator supplies the external high-speed opto-couplers, which provide the isolated interface required by industrial standards between the IPS and the host controller. Optimized thermal performance is provided by the four layer structure of the board. In fact, four dedicated copper areas on each of the four layers result in improved sharing of power dissipation. The STEVAL-IFP022V1 meets EFT standard requirements IEC 61000-4-2, IEC 61000-4-4, and IEC 61000-4-5. The STEVAL-IFP022V1 can be controlled by a dedicated GUI for Windows operating systems, providing a complete user-friendly interface. To use the GUI, it is necessary to connect the communication board STEVAL-PCC009V2 between the STEVAL-IFP022V1 demonstration board and the PC. Figure 1.

STEVAL-IFP022V1: bottom side layout DocID024441 Rev 1 9/19 PCB layout 3.1 AN4284 Power section For proper handling, is recommended to set the main voltage within a range of 18 V to 33 V to prevent overheating of the Transil diode due to high reverse voltage. Digital supply voltage could be provided using the on-board DC-DC converter or using CN2 connector. This demonstration board also provides reverse polarity protection implemented by a Schottky diode and surge protection implemented using a Transil diode with 45 V clamp voltage. Table 3. STEVAL-IFP022V1 electrical specifications (recommended values) Parameter Test Condition Typ Unit VCC Main supply voltage 24 V Vreg Digital voltage supply 5 V mA Current consumption DC/DC OFF Vreg = 5 V SPI OFF channel OFF 5 IVcc DC/DC ON Vreg = 5 V SPI ON channel OFF 15 mA Vclamp Supply voltage clamp 48 V Thermal resistance 15 °C/W Rth 3.2 Description Step-down converter The step-down converter has been designed to generate a regulated voltage of 3.3 V/5 V to supply internal circuitry, the opto-coupler and other VNI8200XP devices if necessary (if this latter configuration is used, diode D1 must be bypassed). To set regulated voltage, the drop jumper JP8 must be left open to obtain 3.3 V regulation, and closed to obtain 5 V regulation. Instead, to turn on or turn off the DC-DC converter it is necessary to close JP7 on the related side; moreover, in case of 3.3 V regulation the jumper JP12 has to be closed. At test point TP1, it is possible to check the regulated voltage. 3.3 Digital interface The STEVAL-IFP022V1 provides the possibility to perform device driving using parallel communication or synchronous communication with a maximum speed of 4.5 MHz, through a 30-pin connector. In the following paragraphs, the steps required to properly manage the evaluation tool will be described in greater detail. 3.3.1 Parallel interface To select the parallel interface, the drop jumper JP6 should be left open, whereas JP10 has to be soldered on the side identified with the label “IN8”. After this step, it is possible to manage all signals for parallel communication using the 30-pin connector. In parallel configuration, the input pin connected to drop jumpers JP2, JP4, JP5 and JP3 could be managed by a microcontroller or kept fixed to a reference. Leaving drop jumpers open, the correspondent input is pulled down, while soldering on the other reference it is possible to always have a high input, or in case of a WD signal, the possibility to provide a square wave at different periods. 10/19 DocID024441 Rev 1 AN4284 3.3.2 PCB layout SPI communication To select SPI communication, the drop jumper JP6 has to be closed, whereas the two drop jumpers identified with labels JP10 and JP9, must be soldered on the side identified with the label “SDO”. In this mode, the watchdog reset function is available. This functionality can be controlled by a microcontroller by soldering drop jumpers JP3 and JP4 on side with the label “µC”, or may be control externally by soldering JP3 and JP4 on the opposite side, fixing these signals to another reference. Regarding the other two drop jumpers “OUT_EN” and “SEL1”, the same considerations as those explained above are valid. 3.4 Thermal management Improvement in thermal management has been achieved by distributing the power dissipation on VCC using four layer realization. This solution permits to reach a Rth value equal to 15 °C/W with around 16 cm ^2 copper area on the bottom layer, around 6 cm ^2 on each of the other layers. The copper thickness is 70 um. 3.5 EMC robustness The STEVAL-IFP022V1 satisfies all requirements established by IEC 61000-4-2, IEC 61000-4-4, and IEC 61000-4-5, respectively, for ESD (Air discharge and Contact Discharge), Burst on outputs and supply line and Surge tests on output and supply line.
