Installation
2 Installation
2.1 Hardware installation
For all work on the PC and interface, you must be statically discharged. The work
must be carried out on an earthed, anti-static work-mat.
Carry out the following work in sequence:
(1) Switch the PC off and remove the mains plug.
(2) Open the PC according to the instructions of the PC-manufacturer and de-
termine a suitable plug-in space.
The interface is designed according to the PC-standard and can be easily
built into the computer. Do not use force when plugging in.
(3) Ensure that the interface is held safely in place in the PC.
(4) If your interface is assembled with 2 isolated CAN-circuits, you must fix the
additional slot plate and plug in the header on the interface (see Section
3.2).
(5) Close the PC; the hardware installation is now completed.
2.2 Software installation
To operate the interface, a driver is required.
For the installation of the CAN driver VCI under Win9x/Me/NT/2000/XP, please
read the VCI installation manual.

Configuration
3.1.1 Bootstrap loader
With JP10 closed the integrated bootstrap loader of the SAB C165 is activated
after a hardware reset. The bootstrap loader is not necessary by using the
iPC-I 165/PCI with IXXAT software. The bootstrap loader is described in detail in
the data book of the Infineon SAB C165.

3.1.2 Providing current supply via CAN plug
With the solder jumpers JP4, JP5, JP6, JP26, JP27 and JP28, the VCC (5V) or GND
signals can be connected to the CAN plug of the two CAN circuits. For this, the
jumpers given in the following table have to be closed.

Tab. 3-2: Providing current supply via CAN plug
If the bus transceiver is electrically isolated, GND and VCC are also connected
electrically isolated from the interface to the plugs via the solder jumpers. The
voltage may be loaded with max. 100 mA.
3.1.3 Termination resistors
On the iPC-I 165/PCI termination resistors for the CAN bus are implemented. By
closing the solder jumper JP8 (1st CAN) resp. JP7 (2nd CAN) these resistors are
connected to the CAN high and CAN low line. The value of the resistors is 120
Ohm.
3.1.4 Reset button and LED
With the order option "developer version" the iPC-I 165/PCI is delivered, besides
one serial interface, with a reset button SW2 and a LED D6.

3.2 Pin assignment
3.2.1 CAN bus connection
One (common) or two independent bus connectors according to ISO/IS 11898-2
can be installed on iPC-I 165/PCI.
The signals of the 1st bus interface are provided by the 9 pole sub-D plug/sleeve.
If two independent bus interfaces are installed the signals for the CAN bus of the
2nd bus interface are provided by the connector JP19. Both of the CAN interfaces
can be optionally galvanic decoupled from the CAN bus.
As another option a version without any bus interface on the board is available.
In this case the signals are provided by separate connectors (X8/X9 for the 1st
CAN, X10/X11 for the 2nd CAN circuit).
The 1st CAN circuit is connected to the 9 pole pin/sleeve X4/X5 via the plug con-
nectors X8 and X9. If both CAN lines are installed and connected together then
they will be connected via these plug connectors, too.
The 2nd CAN circuit is connected to the connector JP19 via the plug connectors
X10 and X11. If the bus interface according to ISO/IS 11898-2 is already installed
on-board the plug connectors X8/X9 and X10/X11 are not present.
The signals of the CAN controllers 1 and 2 and four portpins of the microcontrol-
ler are available at X8 / X10.

Configuration
CAN protection circuit
As an option for iPC-I 165/PCI a CAN protection circuit is available containing a
special CAN choke, a fast rectifier and a suppressor diode. The circuit keeps dis-
turbances and short spikes on CAN lines away from the electronics of the
iPC-I 165/PCI.
X9 leads the signals of the 1st bus interface to the 9 pole pin X5 and to the 9
pole sleeve X4.

EMC information
The PC/CAN interface iPC-I 165/PCI has to be used only in a CE compliant PC. The
case of the PC should be sealed up against high frequency electrical noise. Use
only shielded cables for connecting the PC/CAN interface to the CAN bus and
connect the cable shield to the connector case. The connector case has to be
sealed up against high frequency electrical noise. All unused connectors of the
PC/CAN interface card have to be closed with a cover which is sealed up against
high frequency electrical noise and ESD.
