The MAX14775E evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested PCB that demonstrates the functionality of
the MAX14775 20Mbps RS-485/RS-422 fault-protected
transceiver.
The MAX14775E EV kit may also be used to evaluate the
MAX14776E.
The EV kit is fully assembled and tested. Follow the steps
below to verify board operation.
Set the DC power supply to 3.3V and connect the
DC power supply between the VCC and GND
connectors on the EV kit.
Ensure that all jumpers are in their default positions
(see
Table 1).
Connect the oscilloscope probes to the A, B, and RO
test points on the EV kit.
Turn on the power supply.
Set the signal/function generator to output a 1MHz
0-to-3.3V square wave.
Connect the signal/function generator to the DI test
point.
Using the oscilloscope, verify that the A, B and RO
outputs switch as the signal on DI toggles.

Detailed Description of Hardware
The EV kit is a fully assembled and tested circuit board for
evaluating the MAX14775E high speed RS-485/RS-422
transceiver (U1). The EV kit has been designed to allow
for evaluating the MAX14775E alone or in a standard
RS-485 network.

DE is low. The RS-485 driver

Driver and Receiver Enable Selection
The EV kit features three jumpers (J1, J4, and J5) to
enable/disable the driver and receiver outputs. Set J4
to 2-3 to enable the receiver. Set J5 to 1-2 to enable the
driver. To actively control both enables, remove J4 and J5
shunts and close J1, which connects DE and
RE
together.
Resistors R2–R4 Configuration
For end-of-the-line transceivers, close J2 to connect
a 120Ω termination resistor (R2) between the A and B
RS-485 receiver inputs on the MAX14775E.
Pullup and pulldown resistors are generally used on the
receiver inputs to guarantee a known state in the event
that all nodes on the bus are in receive mode, or the
cable becomes disconnected. The exact value for these
resistors will vary with the application. R1 and R3 pads are
provided for pullup and pulldown resistors on the A and
B lines, if needed. The use of any of these resistors is
purely optional. Note that the MAX14775E features true
fail-safe receiver inputs, which ensures that RO is high
when the receiver inputs are shorted, open, or connected
to an idle bus.

Surge Protection
Some industrial applications require extra components on
the A and B lines to protect against high voltage surges.
Pads for D1 and D2 TVS diodes are included on the
MAX14775E EV kit for this purpose. The use of these
diodes is completely optional for normal operation.
