Description
The USB-BRIDGEV2-EVAL USB Interface adapter board
provides quick access to the I2C and other features of
various IDT devices.
The tool is designed to allow PC based graphical user
interface access via I2C interface, general purpose I/Os,
analog input as well as IDT’s proprietary OTP (One Time
Programmable) Memory interface.
The board supports a I2C voltage level adjustment to the
target system and an onboard 1.8V regulator for 1.8V
slave-I2C operation in addition to the 5V USB derived
operation.
The board allows easy access via the USB micro AB
connector and included PC driver Software Package.

The first time the USB-BRIDGEV2-EVAL is used the Windows Drivers must be installed.
The installation of the Windows USB-to I2C-interface on a Windows 8 system is shown by the following steps. Additional
reference is available at How to install a driver that does not contain digital signature information in Windows 8?
1. Connect the USB-BRIDGEV2-EVAL without any target evaluation system connected to your PC via the USB cable
included. The computer will report an error message that the driver is not digitally-signed.
2. Hold Shift key while choose to restart the computer.
3. Windows will show options below. Select Troubleshoot, Advanced options, Startup Settings, Restart.
4. After the computer restarts, select option 7) Disable driver signature enforcement.
5. When Windows restarts, reconnect the USB-BRIDGEV2-EVAL without any target evaluation system connected to
your PC via the USB cable included. The computer will report that driver is not successfully installed. Use Device
Manager to update the driver.
a. Choose Update in the Device Manager or follow the instructions for a new device found after first connecting
The USB-BRIDGEV2-EVAL has to be configured for the target system used. The detailed requirement for the target system
can be found in the respective manual.
The configuration will adjust the voltage level of the 2 on board level shifters (including pull up resistors) to the required target
system level using JP1,2 and 3 highlighted in the figure above and below.
Option 1 (JP1 shorted, JP2,3 open) will provide a 1.8V (on board LDO) voltage level for the I2C interface and CON-7,8 pins.
Option 2 (JP2 shorted, JP1,3 open) will provide the USB 5V voltage level for the I2C interface and CON-7,8 pins.
Option 3 (JP3 shorted, JP1,2 open) will provide the VPUP voltage level for the I2C interface and CON-7,8 pins. VPUP is
provided through the CON interface connector and allows the target system to supply the desired voltage level.
Option 1 and 2 can be combined with JP3 shorted to provide the 1.8V or 5V to the target system.
or provide a voltage through VPUP with JP1 and JP2 shorted!
