2: Description and Specifications
The Micro125 embedded device server provides an integrated solution to add proven Ethernet connectivity to an existing design quickly and economically, and with a high level of flexibility.
The Micro125
The Micro125 contains Lantronix’s own DSTni controller, with 256 Kbytes of SRAM, 16 Kbytes of boot ROM, and an integrated 10/1 00 PH Y.
The Micro125 also contains the following:
RJ45 (10/100Base-T) ethernet network interface TTL level (asynchronous) serial interface Two serial ports Accepts 5 VDC regulated Input power Flash ROM for easy software upgrades Serial channel status, Ethernet link status, and diagnostic LEDs
The Micro125 requires 5 VDC ±5% at ~ 210mA power and is designed to operate in an extended temperature range (see Technical Specifications on page Error! Bookmark not defined.).
Layout and Dimensi ons
The Micro125 integrates into products quickly and easily. Serial interfacing is accomplished via a TTL connector, and for Ethernet access, an optional RJ45 (10/100Base-T) connector is available.

3: Integration Guidelines
This chapter provides general guidelines to integrate the Micro125 board into your design, and help you reach the necessary standards for your applications.
Power Supply
The Micro125 runs at 5 VDC nominal, ±5%. The current consumption varies for the different products and depends upon their operating conditions. Refer to the current requirements listed in the product specification to design an appropriate power supply.
To maintain the necessary voltage, provide ground to the appropriate connector header with a low inductance and low DC resistance path. The best solution is a solid ground plane.
Place a de-coupling capacitor pair as close as possible to the connector headers of the board’s power supply. We recommend a ceramic (X7R material or equivalent, value
μF to 0.1 μF) and a low DC resistance (electrolytic or tantalum value
0.022
μF to 100 μF) capacitor.
10
Network Connector
If you use the on-board RJ45 connector, we suggest that you provide ground level to the plated mounting hole near the RJ45. That shielded cable will be tied to the appropriate level, however the virtual ground is also provided there.
If you want to add an RJ45 connector, we recommend that it be at least partially shielded in case it will be used in a noisy environment. (Please refer to the product-specific section.)
Take care regarding the trace length and routing for the two differential pairs, TX and RX. Neither of them may cross or run in parallel with any digital signal nor run through a digital ground or power plane. The trace length inside of the unit running from the device server to the RJ45 should be as short as possible. The trace length may have an impact on signal quality (link length), especially if internal ambient noise is a factor.
If trace length cannot be shortened, or the internal noise frequencies are hitting the carrier frequency or the multiples of these (depending on the product and operating mode either 10MHz or 100MHz and up to the 11th overtone), we suggest a different strategy. Use a multi-layer board and a separated shield layer on the solder and assembly sides of the board, which are routed in the inner layers. (Refer to the following figure.) These shield layers can either be connected to the RJ45s shield or to a virtual ground signal provided by the device server.
3: Integration Guidelines
Figure 3-1 Multi-Layer Board Strategy
Virtual Ground
The device server provides a virtual ground at a (plated) mounting hole. It is a ground imitation. It uses the tap of two capacitors (ceramic 0.1 μF) conducted symmetrically to ground and VCC. In the absence of a solid ground (earth), this virtual ground can be used for shielding or balancing metal parts of the case.
Serial Signals
Device server TTL-level serial input and output signals are protected by 220-Ohm resistors. These resistors provide a simple output shortage protection for infinite duration (by limiting the current). They also reduce conducted interferences at higher frequencies to the base board.
Additional Emission Improvements
Depending on the voltage regulator used and bas e bo ar d design, the pow er supp l y cord may sometimes emit conducted interferences. If the voltage level there is low, common mode chokes are the appropriate barrier to avoid these frequencies being emitted via the power cord as an antenna.
Common mode chokes help pass the conducted emission requirements of the EN55022 for frequencies below 30 MHz. Metal cases or partial metal shielding inside the unit can also help to reduce emission levels so that even more stringent standards can be passed.
4: Test Bed
The Micro125 Embedded Integration Kit includes a test bed (carrier board) that provides serial connections to the device server. The Micro125 device server provides a network 10/100Base-T RJ45. The test bed contains a power LED, TTL to RS-232 and RS-232 to TTL conversion hardware, a 3-pin connector for the second serial port, and mounting hardware for the Micro125.
The test bed allows software engineers to immediately begin developing and testing software applications for the device server, rather than delaying the process until the hardware interface for their product is complete.

Figure 4-2 Pin Configurations
The Micro125 test bed has four connectors: CON1 (Serial Port 1 or Channel 1), CON2 (TTL Interface), CON4 (Serial Port 2 or Channel 2), and CON3, which is a 5VDC power supply connector.
This RS-232 level serial interface is implemented with a DB9F connector. The Micro125 converts the RS-232 serial transmit and receive data of this interface to Ethernet protocol transmit and receive data. The DB9 connector was selected for compatibility with most PC serial interface ports using a straight through cable.
