SP2526 Evaluation Board Manual ■ Easy Evaluation for the SP2526 USB Compliant Power Control Switch ■ SP2526NEB contains 2 Independent USB Power Switches with +3.0V to +5.5V Input Range ■ Low PC Board Resistance for testing 100mΩ Max On Resistance of SP2526 ■ Evaluation Board complete with all capacitors & ferrite beads to implement a USB Compliant Power Port ■ Pin-to-Pin Compatible with Micrel MIC2526 DESCRIPTION The SP2526 Evaluation Board is designed to help the user evaluate the performance of the SP2526 for use as a dual +3.0V to +5.5V USB Supervisory Control Switch. Each channel of the SP2526 can be evaluated for its low on-resistance and capacity to supply 500mA output current. The SP2526 Evaluation Board is designed with independent VDD and VIN connections to make it easy to measure the very low quiescent current of 100µA maximum, and low PC board resistance for evaluating the very low on-resistance of 100mΩ maximum. The evaluation board is a completely assembled and tested surface mount board which provides easy probe access points to all SP2526 Inputs and Outputs so that the user can quickly connect and measure electrical characteristics and waveforms.

SP2526 EVALUATION BOARD The next two sections describe the SP2526 Board Layout and Using the SP2526 Evaluation Boards. A table of SP2526 Pin Assignments is also included with details on Input/Output pin function. A SP2526 Evaluation Board List of Materials table is provided with some manufacturers part numbers to use as a reference. Finally, a schematic and drawings of the PC Board Layout are included of the SP2526 Evaluation Board. USING THE EVALUATION BOARD The SP2526 Evaluation Board can be connected to a power supply using a pair of wires soldered to the solder pads marked provided “VIN” and “GND”. It is good practice to not switch power on until power connections are made to the evaluation board. BOARD LAYOUT Powering Up & Using the SP2526 Circuit VIN — U1-7 — Solder wire to VIN solder pad on component side of board and connect to external Power Supply positive. VIN = +3.0V to +5.5V. Connect Voltmeter positive or Oscilloscope probe to VIN test point post to monitor actual voltage input to PC board. The SP2526 Evaluation Board has been designed to easily and conveniently provide access to all Inputs and Outputs of the SP2526 device under test. Position the board with the silkscreen lettering upright (see Figure 1 Component Layout) and you will see the SP2526 SOIC labeled U1 in the center right of the board, and around it the Capacitors C1,2,3 and Ferrite Beads F1-4 forming the Dual USB Supervisory Switch. GND — U1-6 — Solder wire to GND solder pad on component side of board and connect to external Power Supply negative. Connect Voltmeter negative or Oscilloscope probe ground to GND test point post to monitor actual voltage input to PC board. The SP2526 Evaluation Board provides solder pads to connect wires to an external power supply and load, as well as Test Point Posts to monitor the Input and Output Voltages at these connections to the SP2526. The SP2526 PC Board Layout has been designed with low resistance input and output connections of 2mΩ each to provide the lowest On-Resistance for utilizing the USB Switch. OUTA — U1-8 — Solder wire to OUTA solder pad on component side of board and connect to external load. Connect Voltmeter positive or Oscilloscope probe to OUTA test point post to monitor actual voltage output at the PC board. GNDA — Solder wire to GNDA solder pad on component side of board and connect to external LoadA return. Connect Voltmeter negative or Oscilloscope probe ground to GND test point post to monitor actual voltage input to PC board. The PC Layout is given in Figures 1-3 for the user as an aid in designing a low resistance USB switch on a PC board. The PC board used has 1oz Copper with VIN, Ground, VOUT traces of at least 0.1inch width for 5mΩ/inch or looked at another way as 0.5mΩ/square. This means to maintain a trace resistance of only 2mΩ, you need to have only 4 squares of trace from one end to another. Resistance is further reduced by some additional wide VIN, Ground and VOUT connections on the bottom side of the PC board which are connected to the top side with large through-hole connections. For best results with on-resistance in the ferrites used for EMI suppression in the Output and Ground connections, through-hole ferrite beads were used for F1-4, yielding 2mΩ SP2526EB/02 OUTB — U1-5 — Solder wire to OUTB solder pad on component side of board and connect to external load. Connect Voltmeter positive or Oscilloscope probe to OUTB test point post to monitor actual voltage output at the PC board. GNDB — Solder wire to GNDB solder pad on component side of board and connect to external LoadB return. Connect Voltmeter negative or Oscilloscope probe ground to GND test point post to monitor actual voltage input to PC board. SP2526 Evaluation Board Manual 2 © Copyright 2000 Sipex Corporation Using the Enable Jumbers J1 & J2 The jumpers J1& J2 have 2 positions, as described below. Connecting a logic level to the ENA or ENB test point post will override the pull-up or pull-down to actively control the switch. VDD — Connect to a second Power Supply 5V (or 3.3V) connection – VDD provides the pull-up voltage for Enables ENA & ENB and Flags FLGA & FLGB. This separate supply connection allows the user to separately measure VIN supply current. Part Number GND — Second Power Supply GND Connection – connect to supply return for VDD. ENA — U1-1 —Enable A Input must be connected High or Low – open produces unstable behavior, so be sure to connect VDD to an external 3.3V or 5V source. See Table 1 Enable Jumpers for information on Enable Jumper J1 position. The user can actively control Switch A with an external Logic signal. Enable Enable A J1 Position Enable B J2 Position SP2526-1 Active High 1-2 Pull-up 1-2 Pull-up SP2526-2 Active Low 2-3 Pull-down 2-3 Pull-down Table 1. Enable Jumpers J1 & J2 FLGA — U1-2 — Flag A output is open drain and has a pull-up to VDD (which should be connected to an external source). Connect FLGA to voltmeter or oscilloscope to monitor Switch A for flags when Low if Under-voltage, Over-current or Over-temperature occurs. . ENB — U1-4 — Enable B Input must be connected High or Low – open produces unstable behavior, so be sure to connect VDD to an external 3.3V or 5V source. See Table 1 Enable Jumpers for information on Enable Jumper J2 position. The user can actively control Switch B with an external Logic signal. FLGB — U1-3 — Flag B output is open drain and has a pull-up to VDD (which should be connected to an external source). Connect FLGB to voltmeter or oscilloscope to monitor Switch B for flags when Low if Under-voltage, Over-current or Over-temperature occurs.
