I2C Demonstration Board 2005-1 Quick Start Guide
1. Introduction
The I2C Demonstration Board 2005-1 is a USB based solution that allows engineers and
sales engineers to experiment with general-purpose I2C-bus devices from Philips.
The hardware connects to a standard USB port found on most IBM-compatible PCs and
provides bidirectional communication with I2C-bus devices using the I2C-bus protocol.
The hardware is powered directly from the PC's USB port.
An on-board LED illuminates after the USB host has successfully enumerated it.
The Win-I2CUSB Lite software from The Boardshop runs on Windows 98SE, ME, 2000,
and XP and is compatible with any PC hardware having a minimum of a Pentium
processor and an USB port. The software allows the user to select one of the
I2C-bus devices on the board from a menu and also provides a Universal mode to allow
users to create their own I2C-bus commands with the same I2C-bus devices. The
Win-I2CUSB Lite software is designed to operate only with the specific devices and
device addresses on the I2C Demonstration Board 2005-1.
2. Getting started
2.1 Assumptions
It is helpful to have basic experience with the I2C-bus protocol before using the
demonstration board but it is not absolutely necessary. There are several exercises
targeted at beginners as well as more advanced users. For beginners, the I2C-bus
specification is a good source of detailed information about the I2C-bus. You can
download the complete specification from the Philips Semiconductors website.
2.2 Static Handling Requirements
CAUTION
This device is sensitive to ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD). Therefore care should be taken
during transport and handling. You must use a ground strap or touch the PC case or other
grounded source before unpacking or handling the hardware.
2.3 Minimum System Requirements
• PC Pentium 60 processor (or equivalent), 8MB RAM, 10MB of hard drive space
• one USB port (either 2.0 or 1.1 compatible)
• Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, or XP
2.4 Adapter Power Requirements
The Philips I2C Demonstration Board 2005-1 hardware obtains its power from the PC
USB port.

7. Starting Win-I2CUSB Lite
When you have correctly installed the software and the Demonstration Board Hardware is
connected and recognized by the computer, start the Win-I2CUSB Lite software (see
Figure 4).

Fig 4. Win-I2CUSB Lite main window
• When the Demonstration Board hardware is correctly connected to the USB port and
the computer recognizes it, the message “Hardware Detected” is displayed.
• Switched 3.3 V and 5.0 V power supplies are controlled through the “Options” menu
or by double clicking on the 3.3 V or 5.0 V symbols on the lower side of the main
window. Power supplies are disabled by default and you must enable them before
using the I2C-bus devices on the board.
• I2C-bus frequency is controlled through the “Options” menu or by double clicking on
the frequency symbol in the lower side of the main window.
• I2C-bus devices on the board are controlled using the corresponding control window
in the “Device” menu. You can only select I2C-bus devices which are on the board and
are highlighted in the menu.
• The Expert Mode selected through “Device Î Universal Modes” allows you to send
customized I2C-bus commands to any device on the board. Expert Mode is limited to
8 lines of command in the Lite version of the software. Each line of command can
have up to 9 bytes of data.

• The self check routine selected through “Device Î Training Board Self Test” allows a
thorough self test to be performed (device, electrical connection and visual check).
You can save the results of the test in a log file.
8. Upgrades and experimentation
Refer to the UM10207 User Manual for more details on the Win-I2CUSB Lite Software
and programming of different I2C-bus devices.
9. I2C Demonstration Board 2005-1 upgrades
You can purchase a full version of the GUI, called a Win-I2CUSBDLL kit from The
Boardshop (details are available on the website:
www.semiconductors.philips.com/products/interface_control/i2c). The microcontroller
included operates over the entire address range for all devices with a more powerful
universal mode if you need to communicate with devices or addresses not supported by
the Win-I2C Lite software.
The full version of the GUI is incompatible with the Demonstration Board
USB-to-I2C-bus-microcontroller. You can make the GUI work with any Demonstration
Board if you remove the microcontroller from the Win-I2CUSBDLL kit USB based I2C-bus
hardware adapter v2 card and insert it into the microcontroller socket on the
Demonstration Board.
Periodically daughter cards of new devices will become available and new GUIs
generated for these devices. Alternatively existing GUIs will be enhanced based on
operator feedback. The Win-I2CUSB Lite and Win-I2CUSBDLL kit software includes an
automatic update feature which keeps the software updated to most current GUIs.
