1 Concept
Figure 1: Board Concept
This board is intended to provide a simple, easy-to-use tool for getting familiar with Infineon’s
embedded power IC TLE9869. It contains the TLE9869 and its typical application circuit including two
MOSFET half bridges to instantly drive a DC motor. The board is ready to connect with car supply or
similar and has an implemented Segger for debugging on board.
All relevant chip pins are connected to pin headers at the edge of the board, where signals can be
probed or applied directly (see Table 2, Table 3). By different jumper settings LEDs can be put in parallel
to several ports and selected functions can be configured (see Table 6). Push button switches allow
easy hardware reset and triggering of the MON input. There are intended test points for all four gate
driver pins, for measurements at the shunt, VDDC and several ground points on the evaluation board
(see Figure 3). For testing analog signals ADC inputs can be varied by the potentiometer on board. Two
phases of motor current can be picked off at a terminal block to connect a DC motor.
The evaluation board can be operated by standard laboratory equipment as power supply and LIN
communication are working via banana jacks. Debugging and UART are provided via an USB interface
combined with onboard Segger J-Link (XMC4200). Bidirectional level shifters ensure that the respective
XMC pins are in tristate as long as UART or debugging is not used.
In case the user wants to use another ISP than the onboard Segger the SWD interface can be used. To
program the TLE9869 via LIN there is an additional uIO BSL interface (see Table 4).
There is a battery LED that indicates that the board is connected to supply the right way. Otherwise
reverse polarity protection secures the board from damage by cross connection.

uIO BSL for LIN (marked orange)
This uIO bootstrap loader is an 8 pin header (2x4) with 2,54mm pitch.
It is intended to connect additional hardware for bootstrap loading. For programming the TLE9869 via
LIN this uIO interface can be used (see www.infineon.com/uio).

ISP than the onboard Segger this interface can be used.
DBPRE will be implicitly connected to GND by connecting the external ISP. This keeps the XMC in reset

3 Test Points
Figure 3: Test Points
TLE9869 EvalKit v1.0 User Manual v1.1
The 2-phase power half-bridge is controlled by four gate driver pins, driving the gates of high side
MOSFET and low side MOSFET for each phase. Each gate has an intended test point to measure the
respective signals at high side gates and low side gates (GL1, GL2, GH1, GH2).
Test points OP1 and OP2 are provided at both sides of the shunt, which is 5mR.
Additionally there is an intended test point for VDDC and various ground points.
All test points marked in the shown figure are not populated. In order to use these pins they have to
be soldered in the designated solder holes.

JP3
Select TLE9869 as LIN Master or LIN Slave
JP4
Connect or disconnect VAREF with VDDEXT

Table 6: Jumpers’ functionalities
Figure 4: Jumpers
JP1: Close this jumper to connect MON button to MON input. Open it to disconnect MON button from
MON input.
JP2: Close this jumper to connect RESET button to RESET input. Open it to disconnect RESET button
from RESET input.
TLE9869 EvalKit v1.0 User Manual v1.1
JP3: Close this jumper to connect an additional 1k pull-up resistor. This is intended for LIN master
communication. Open the jumper to use the TLE9869 as slave in a LIN network. Software for LIN low
level driver can be found at the homepage of IHR (www.ihr.de).
JP4: Close this jumper in order to supply VAREF by VDDEXT. In case VAREF is supplied externally the
user has to take care by software that the internal VAREF is disabled. Open the jumper to use the
internal VAREF which has to be enabled by software.
JP5: This jumper is closed by default. If this jumper is left open the device is not supplied. It is intended
to open the VS line in order to measure the current flowing into the TLE9869.
JP6: Close this jumper to connect the potentiometer to P2.4. Open this jumper to disconnect the
potentiometer.
JP7: Jumper 7 provides one individual jumper per LED in order to connect or disconnect the respective
LED to the pin port.

5 Communication Interfaces
5.1 LIN (via Banana jack and uIO BSL)
The device integrated LIN transceiver is connected to a banana jack and additionally to the uIO BSL
interface. To integrate the device in a LIN network it is sufficient to use the single wire banana
interface. The BSL interface is intended to program the device via LIN. For further information about
the uIO interface see www.infineon.com/uio.
5.2 UART (via USB)
A virtual COM port provided by Segger driver enables a PC – board – communication via UART. The
UART2 module of TLE9869 uses the pins P1.1 (transmit) and P1.2 (receive). Those are connected to the
XMC4200, which emulates Rx and Tx on PC side with Segger firmware. Though they cannot be
disconnected physically, bidirectional level shifters ensure that the XMC pins are hi-Z in case the virtual
COM port is not used.
By connecting the evaluation board to the PC a virtual COM port gets emulated by the Segger driver
automatically. The port used will show up in the Microsoft® Windows® device manager.
TLE9869 EvalKit v1.0 User Manual v1.1
Figure 5: UART and Debugging
Note: Only one of the interfaces USB or SWD can be used at one time. While using the SWD interface
the XMC is hold in reset. As long as a debugger is connected with the SWD interface it eliminates
therefore debugging or UART via USB.
5.3 Debugging (via USB or SWD-Interface)
For serial wire debug the TLE9869 uses the pins TMS (data) and P0.0 (clock). Level shifters between
XMC4200 and TLE9869 allow using P0.0, while it is not used for debugging.
The Segger J-Link module on board allows serial wire debugging via USB. Alternative debugging via
SWD interface is possible to debug with another ISP than the onboard Segger e.g. U-Link2. Therefore
the signals are routed through the 10 pin header SWD interface between the XMC4200 and the
TLE9869. The pin configuration makes sure that the XMC is hold in reset while another debugger is
physically connected as DBPRE will be implicitly connected to GND by connecting the external ISP (see
Table 5).

Started with TLE986x/7x Evalboards and Evalkits.
