2. EVB Features
The EVB provides the following key features:
• MCU Socket supporting the 208BGA production package and the 256BGA development package.
• Single 12-14V external power supply input with on-board regulators to provide all of the necessary
EVB and MCU voltages. Power may be supplied to the EVB via a 2.1mm barrel style power jack or a
2-way level connector. 12V operation allows in-car use if desired.
•Flexible on-board power supply configuration with the option to bypass the internal MCU regulators if
desired.
•Master power switch and regulator status LED’s – Regulators connected to the ADC to allow
monitoring.
• User reset switch with reset status LED’s
• User configurable Low Voltage Inhibit to monitor the status of the 3.3V and 5V regulators.
• Control of the BOOTCFG status via a dedicated jumper.
• Flexible MCU clocking options:
40MHz Oscillator Crystal
32Khz Watch Crystal
SMA connector to allow external clock support
8Mhz Oscillator circuit.
• SMA connector on MCU-CLKOUT signal for easy access.
• Standard 14-pin ONCE debug connector and 38-pin MICTOR Nexus connectors.
• All MCU signals are accessible on port-ordered groups of 0.1” pitch headers.
• DSPI A signals can be routed to a set of shift registers to allow a 32-bit phantom port to be created.
• SCI channels A and B can be routed to a standard DB9 female connector (PC RS-232 compliant) via
a Maxim physical interface.
•SCI channels C and D can be routed to LIN interface header (0.1”) and molex connectors, both will
full physical transceivers.
•FlexCAN channels A and B can be routed to 0.1” headers and DB9 connector via a Philips high speed
CAN transceiver which supports both 3.3V and 5V inputs.
•FlexCAN channels C, D, E and F are routed to the prototyping area with DB9 connectors to allow
additions CAN physical interfaces to be easily integrated.
•User prototyping area consisting of a 0,1” grid of through hole pads with easy access to the EVB
ground and power supply rails.
•Ethernet signals routed to a National Semiconductor physical interface and Pulsejack RJ45 connector
with integrated magnetics.
•MLB signals routed to SMSC MOST INIC with Tyco Optical Transceiver. INIC JTAG and MLB monitor
ports. Support for optional ROM INIC or MLB150 daughter card from SMSC.
• 4 active low LED’s and 4 pushbutton switches for development purposes.
• Jumper selectable variable resistor connected to ADC channel 0, driving between VRH and VRL.
• Liberal scattering of GND test points (surface mount loops) placed throughout the EVB.
Note – To alleviate confusion between jumpers and headers, all EVB jumpers are implemented as 2mm pitch
whereas headers are 0.1inch (2.54mm). This prevents inadvertently fitting a jumper to a header.
Before the EVB is used or power is applied, please fully read the following
sections on how to correctly configure the board.
Failure to correctly configure the board may cause irreparable component, MCU or EVB
damage.

3. Configuration
This section details the configuration of each of the EVB functional blocks.
Throughout this document, all of the default jumper and switch settings are clearly marked with “(D)” and are
shown in blue text. This should allow a more rapid return to the default state of the EVB if required. Note that
the default configuration for 3-way jumpers is a header fitted between pins 1 and 2. On the EVB, 2-way and 3way jumpers have been aligned such that Pin 1 is either to the top or to the left of the jumper. On 2-way
jumpers, the source of the signal is connected to Pin 1.
The EVB has been designed with ease of use in mind and has been segmented into functional blocks as
shown below. Detailed silkscreen legend has been used throughout the board to identify all switches, jumpers
and user connectors.

3.1 Power Supply Configuration
The Power supply
section is located in
the bottom left area
of the EVB
The EVB requires an external power supply voltage of 12V DC, minimum 1A. This allows the EVB to be easily
used in a vehicle if required. The single input voltage is regulated on-board using 3 switching and 1 linear
regulators to provide the necessary EVB and MCU operating voltages of 5.0V, 3.3V and 2.5V. For flexibility
there are two different power supply input connectors on the EVB as detailed below.
3.1.1 Power Supply Connectors
2.1mm Barrel Connector – P22:
This connector should be used to connect the supplied wall-plug mains adapter. Note – if a replacement or
alternative adapter is used, care must be taken to ensure the 2.1mm plug uses the correct polarisation as
shown below:
Figure 3-2 2.1mm Power Connector
2-Way Lever Connector – P23:
This can be used to connect a bare wire lead to the EVB, typically from a laboratory power supply. The
polarisation of the connectors is clearly marked on the EVB. Care must be taken to ensure correct connection.

3.1.2 Power Switch (SW6)
Slide switch SW6 can be used to isolate the power supply input from the EVB voltage regulators if required.
Moving the slide switch to the right (away from connector P23) will turn the EVB on.
Moving the slide switch to the left (towards connector P23) will turn the EVB off.

3.1.3 Regulator Power Jumpers (J42, J44, J45 and J46)
The Power supply control jumpers are located adjacent to the respective regulators.
As mentioned above, the EVB has four voltage regulators on board:
- 2.5V switching regulator (U17) to supply the MCU MLB Pads voltage and the SMSC INIC (U6).
- 3.3V switching regulator (U18) for EVB peripherals and MCU regulator, logic and I/O.
- 5.0V switching regulator (U19) for the MCU regulator and I/O and EVB peripherals.
- 5.0V linear regulator (U14) for the MCU ADC power supply.
All of the regulators have the option of being disabled if they are not required. The table below details the
jumper configurations for enabling and disabling the regulators. By default, all of the regulators are enabled.

3.1.4 Power Status LED’s and Fuse
When power is applied to the EVB, four green power LED’s adjacent to the voltage regulators show the
presence of the supply voltages as follows:
LED DS8 – Indicates that the 5.0V linear regulator is enabled and working correctly
LED DS9 – Indicates that the 1.5V switching regulator is enabled and working correctly
LED DS10 – Indicates that the 3.3V switching regulator is enabled and working correctly
LED DS11 – Indicates that the 5.0V switching regulator is enabled and working correctly
If no LED’s are illuminated when power is applied to the EVB and the regulators are correctly enabled using
the appropriate jumpers, it is possible that either power switch SW6 is in the “OFF” position or that the fuse F1
has blown. The fuse will blow if power is applied to the EVB in reverse-bias, where a protection diode ensures
that the main fuse blows rather than causing damage to the EVB circuitry. If the fuse has blown, check the
bias of your power supply connection then replace fuse F1 with a 20mm 500mA fast blow fuse.
The MCU can be operated in 5v and 3.3v modes by changing J46. When in 5v mode MCU has internal
regulators that can generate the 3.3V supplies for VDDSYN and VDD33. Whilst this is the intended mode of
operation for the MCU when VRC = 5v the EVB allows the internal MCU regulators to be disabled by
changing VRCSEL to EXT and applying external voltages to the VDDSYN and VDD33 inputs. When in 3.3v
mode VDDSYN and VDD33 inputs must always be supplied externally.
The VDDE[1..4] pins control the pad voltages over 4 groupings of pads (see the MCU reference manual for
details). Jumpers J41 - J34 allow the VDDEx pins to be connected to the 5.0v or 3.3V switching regulators.
The VDDEMLB domain can be 3.3v or 2.5v selectable by J45.

The jumper configuration shown in Table 3-2, details the default state of the EVB. In this configuration all
power is supplied from the Linear and Switching regulators.
- VDDA is connected to the 5.0V Linear regulator
- VRC is connected to the 5.0V switching regulator
- VRCSEL is connected to logic 1 enabling the internal 3.3V regulator – J48 and J50 are removed.
- VDDE[1..4] are connected to the 5.0V switching regulator
When jumper J47 (VRCSEL) is in position 1-2 (INT), the MCU’s 3.3V internal voltage regulators are
enabled and supply power to the 3.3V power domains. In this case, jumpers J48 (VDD33) and J50
(VDDSYN) must be removed.
Similarly, when jumper J47 is removed, no power is supplied to the MCU internal voltage regulators and
jumpers J48 (VDD33) and J50 (VDDSYN) must be fitted to power the respective MCU pins. The 3.3V
regulator must also be enabled in this case.

3.3 Reset Control (Jumper J75)
The RESET switch (RED)
and LVI circuitry is located
to the t left of the MCU in
the area titled “RESET “
The EVB incorporates an LVI (Low Voltage Inhibit) device to provide under-voltage protection for the two main
switching regulators (5v and 3.3v). When either of these regulator voltages drops below a certain threshold
level, the LVI will assert the MCU reset line to prevent incorrect operation of the MCU (or EVB circuitry).
The table below shows the approximate threshold voltages for each regulator
Table 3-7 LVI Monitor Threshold Voltages
reset
5.0V Switcher 1.47V
3.3V Switcher 1.47V
The LVI is powered from the 5.0V switching regulator and monitors the 3.3V regulator using a 2nd power fail
monitor circuit. The LVI also provides a de-bounced input for EVB reset switch SW5.
Jumpers are provided to disable either the main LVI reset out (which affects the reset from the 5.0V switching
regulator and from the reset switch) or the power fail out circuit (which only affects the reset from the 3.3V
regulator). If the 5v regulator LVI is disabled, the reset switch will not function.

Notes:
- If the 5.0V switching regulator is disabled for any reason, the LVI circuit will attempt to assert the MCU
Reset signal. Jumper shunts on jumper J20 position 1-2 and 3-4 must be removed in this situation.
This will also leave the reset switch SW5 inoperative.
- If the 3.3V regulator is disabled, the shunt on jumper J20 position 3-4 must be removed to prevent the
LVI asserting reset.
3.3.1 Reset LEDs
There are two reset LED’s, DS2 (AMBER) and DS3 (RED), placed adjacent to the EVB RESET switch to
indicate the RESET status of the EVB and MCU.
LED DS3, titled “RST”, will illuminate if the MCU itself issues a reset. In this condition, LED DS2 will not
illuminate.
LED DS2, titled “USR”, will illuminate when one of the following external hardware devices issues a reset to
the MCU:
- LVI circuitry (either an under-voltage detection or the reset switch is being pressed)
- There is a reset being asserted from the user connectors or from the daughter card
- There is a reset being driven from the Nexus or JTAG debug probe
Note that LED DS3 (MCU Reset) will also illuminate during an external (user) reset!

3.3.2 Reset Buffering Scheme
The MPC5668 family has a single reset pin. This single pin functions as a dual purpose input / output signal,
providing Reset-In and Reset-Out functionality.
There is a lot of circuitry on the EVB that has access to the reset pin. In order to reduce the loading on the pin
(when the MCU is diving the reset signal) and also to allow connection of non open-drain reset inputs, a resetin and reset-out buffering scheme is implemented as shown in Figure 3-7.
Reset-In - There are 3 possible external sources of reset:
- JTAG / Nexus connector reset
- User reset (from user connectors)
- LVI reset circuitry, including the reset switch.
Each of these reset sources is fed into the input of an AND gate and then converted to an opendrain output which is directly connected to the MCU reset pin.
Reset-Out - The MCU reset pin is buffered to provide a reset-out signal, capable of driving the reset LED and
also multiple devices requiring a reset input.
The reset buffering scheme is detailed below:

Jumper J17 is used to completely disconnect the reset-in buffering if desired. This is for debug purposes only
and should normally be left connected. Disconnecting this jumper will mean no external MCU reset can be
achieved

3.3.3 Reset Boot Configuration (J69)
The MPC5668 has a single boot configuration pin (BOOTCFG) which determines the boot location of the
MCU based on the state of the pin at POR (Power On Reset). This is shown in the table below:

3.4 ONCE and Nexus Configuration (J32, J70)
ON
The EVB supports a standard ONCE cable with a 14-pin 0.1” walled header footprint. There is also a 38-pin
MICTOR connector for Nexus debug. Nexus debug is only supported when using a 256MAPBGA MPC5668.
There are two generic jumpers associated with both the ONCE and Nexus, as detailed below
Some debug probes have the ability to assert and also monitor the state of the MCU reset line. This is not
possible when the reset signal is buffered so a jumper (J32) is included to allow routing the debug reset signal
direct to the MCU reset pin or via the EVB Reset-In buffering.

Some debug manufacturers specify whether the debug TCLK signal is pulled low or high. Jumper J70
provides the ability to select whether TCLK is pulled to GND or VDDE2. For low power operation, TCLK
should be pulled to GND.
