4.4 Device features

TheFS65xx/FS45xx are multi-output power-regulating SMARTMOS devices aimed at the automotive market. They include CAN flexible data (FD) and/or LIN transceivers.

Multiple switching and linear voltage regulators—including low-power mode (32 μA) — provide a variety of wake-up capabilities. An advanced power management scheme maintains high efficiency over a wide range of input voltages (down to 2.7 V) and output current ranges (up to 2.2 A).

The FS45xx/FS65xx family includes enhanced safety features with multiple fail-safe outputs. The devices are capable of fully supporting safety-oriented system partitioning with a high integrity safety level (up to ASIL D).

The built-in CAN FD (flexible data-rate) interface meets all ISO11898-2 and -5 standards. The LIN interface is compliant with LIN protocol specifications 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, and SAEJ2602-2.

and F45xx versus FS65xx

The FS45xx family of devices only support V

CORE

LDO (low dropout) voltage regulators.

The FS65xx family only supports V

CORE

DC/DC voltage regulators. The evaluation board circuitry accommodates this discrepancy by implementing a variation of the BOM for each of the two device families. Populating or not populating resistors with some components depends on which device family is in use and determines which network is enabled.

For the FS45xx family, the following assembly options must be implemented:

• R42: DNP

• C8/C9/R4/D3/L2/C5/C7/R2/C11/R5/C17: populated

For the FS65xx family, it is the opposite:

configuration

5.2.2 Compensation network

Both LDO and DC/DC voltage regulators use VCORE voltage feedback to control the output voltage (see Figure 12).

For FS45xx devices using static (steady-state) LDO regulators, a simple resistor bridge (resistors R3 and R6) determines the feedback voltage. By default, the feedback voltage is 1.3 V.

For FS65xx devices using DC/DC voltage regulators, a pair of RC voltage dividers controls the dynamic behavior of the regulator.

5.2.3 FCRBM Resistor Bridge

The feedback core bridge monitoring (FCRBM) Resistor Bridge is an evaluation board safety feature.

The bridge generates the same voltage as the bridge connected to the FB_core pin. If the difference between the two voltages is greater than the VCORE_FB_DRIFT value, the FS state machine is impacted (refer to data sheet). The drift value is set to 1.3V by default.

6 Configuring the EVM

6.1 Connecting the hardware

The EVB can be connected to a PC through the FRDM-KL25Z board included with this EVM or any board with an MCU that supports SPI. A power supply with a typical value of

13.5 V must be connected to J1. Regulators can be loaded using J2 connector.

In order to use the board with an FRDM-KL25Z, these steps must be followed for the hardware setup:

Caution: To avoid damaging the board, the V

BAT

voltage must not exceed 40 V.

1. With the power switched off, attach the DC power supply to the Phoenix connector

(J1) on the evaluation board.

2. A load or an external board can be attached to J2 (not mandatory).

3. Plug the board to an FRDM-KL25Z board.

aaa-025553

4. Connect a USB cable from the USB port labeled USBKL25Z on the FRDM-KL25Z

board to a USB port on a PC that has the FlexGUI installed.

5. Turn on the DC power supply.

Figure 13 illustrates the hardware configuration.

7 Software

The FRDMFS4503CAEVB/FRDMFS6523CAEVB/FRDMFS6522LAEVB boards must be plugged into a FRDM-KL25Z. Firmware controlling the communication with the FS45xx/FS65xx must be loaded onto the MCU. The procedure for loading the firmware is described in Section 8 "Appendix A: FRDM-KL25Z software loading". The FlexGUI graphical user interface that is installed on a PC serves as the user interface to the evaluation board (Section 9 "Appendix B: Installing the FlexGUI"). When connecting the FRDM-KL25Z board to a PC through a USB cable, the following data exchanges are available:

• SPI access (read and write) to FS45xx/FS65xx

• ADC readout, connected to regulators

• LIN generated TX signal with loopback checking

The software bundle also includes an XML file containing register descriptions for the FS45xx or FS65XX (depending on the evaluation board).This file must be installed in order for the GUI to work properly. In addition, an optional Excel file can be created to facilitate setting several registers at a click.

7.1 Creating and using a register configuration file

Creating an Excel register configuration file allows the user to initialize the evaluation board MCU with a predefined set of register values. To create a register configuration file, do the following:

1. Open a new Excel spreadsheet file and label the first three columns in row 1 hex,

registers and comment. Notice that the first two columns —hex and registers— are mandatory. The comment column is optional.

2. In the hex column (column A), enter the data or address to be assigned to each

register. The address and data must be contained in two bytes and must be expressed as a hexadecimal value. Enter one row per register.

3. In the registers column (column B), enter the register name associated with the value

in the hex column.

4. In the comments column (column C), enter any comments desired. Data in this

column is not processed by the FlexGUI. The image below illustrates a typical register configuration file.

Mandatory

Optional

5. Launch FlexGUI. When FlexGUI opens, click the Load Sequence button to load the

6. Send the register configuration file to the FS45xx/FS65xx by clicking the Send

Sequence button.

7.2 Using the FlexGUI

To start the FlexGUI, do the following:

1. Configure the hardware as described in Section 6.1 "Connecting the hardware".

2. To launch the FlexGUI, execute the .bat file created in Section 9 "Appendix B:

Installing the FlexGUI" .

7.3 Use case example

This example assumes the user has configured the hardware as shown in Figure 13 and put the evaluation board into debug mode by placing a connector on jumper J15 (see

Section 6.1). After launching the FlexGUI, the example configures registers to disable

IO_23_FS safety mode, disable the watchdog and release the FSx pins.

• To use the register configuration file, open FlexGUI, then load the register configuration

file and send it to the evaluation board .

• FlexGUI can now be used to read or write any authorized registers.

8 Appendix A: FRDM-KL25Z software loading

The quick start package containing the latest firmware can be downloaded from the Downloads tab of the following webpage:

http://www.nxp.com/FRDM-KL25Z

Software loading for the FRDM-KL25Z consists of the following:

• Updating the OpenSDA.

• Programming the FRDM-KL25Z

8.1 Updating OpenSDA

1. Press the RST button and connect the USB (the one marked SDA) to the PC.

aaa-025593

2. LED D4 will start blinking.

3. Release the RST button.

4. Drag the file FRDM-KL25Z Quick Start Package\OpenSDA Applications/MSD-

DEBUG-FRDM-KL25Z_Pemicro_v105.SDA and drop it on the KL25Z board icon which appears as a mass storage device on the host PC.

9 Appendix B: Installing the FlexGUI

The FlexGUI graphical user interface provides a PC-based interface for accessing the evaluation board and exercising FS45xx/FS65xx functions. The GUI runs on any Windows 8, Windows 7 or Vista operating system.

To install the FlexGUI software:

1. Go to the evaluation board tool summary page

2. Under Jump Start Your Design, click on the Get Started with the FRDMFS65xx

link.

3. From the list of files that appear, click on the FlexGUI link. The software downloads

to the PC and initiates the installation. An installation wizard guides the user through the process. Upon completion, the GUI executable (FlexGUI.exe), and the relevant register description XML file (in this case, FS65xx.xml) are installed on the system.

4. To simplify launching the FlexGUI, create a .bat file with the following commands:

C:\Program Files (x86)\FlexGUI\bin\FlexGUI.exe

C:\Program Files (x86)\FlexGUI\Sequences&Config\FS65xx.xml
