3 The boards
3.1 Interface board
The TEA2016DB1514 interface board is a development tool that enables setting
TEA2016 controller parameters from a computer. The available Ringo TEA2016
development software provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that can be installed on a
computer.
The interface and software are intended for engineering work in lab environment as
part of power supply development. It is not suitable for use for consumer or industrial
purposes.

A user manual with detailed information is available for download and included in Ringo.

4 Software
4.1 Installing the software
1. Copy the zip file from the USB stick or download it to a folder on your computer. The
x64 is for 64-bit operating systems. The x86 is for 32-bit operating systems.
2. Unzip the file.
Figure 6. Copying the software files to your computer
For the Ringo software to work, the FT232H driver for the USB-I2C interface must be
installed. When the interface is connected via USB for the first time, this installation
happens automatically. If the driver is not installed automatically, use the included drivers
to install it manually (a video on the get started page shows how to install the driver
manually).
Note: When the FT232H driver is not installed, the Ringo software does not work.
The Ringo program does not require installation. Double-clicking Ringo.exe, starts the
software. Keep the other files and folders in the same directory because Ringo uses
them.
4.2 User manual and tutorial videos for the Ringo software
To get familiar with using the software and getting to know the functions that are
available, user manuals and videos are included in the Ringo GUI software. They can be
accessed easily from the Ringo GUI.

5 Connecting and working with the setup
5.1 Connecting the setup
A video on the get started page shows how to connect a setup to your computer by USB.
There are two types of setup.
1. Power supply setup
The TEA2016DB1519v2 demo board contains a TEA2016AATdev sample that can
communicate via I2C during operation. It is connected to the interface with a 3-pin
connection.
2. IC programming board setup
Connecting a TEA2016DB1561 with a 6-pin cable provides reading or programming
for TEA2016AAT ICs. If a TEA2016AATdev IC version is used, connect the 3-pin
cable as well.
The switch on the interface selects the 3-pin or 6-pin connection.

6 Frequently asked questions
6.1 Ringo software
Q: Ringo.exe does not start.
•A1: To enable Ringo software to work, the USB-I2C interface driver (FT232) must be
installed on the computer.
•A2: Make sure that a compatible version is used: 32-bit or 64-bit
•A3: Ringo is made for Windows operating systems. On other operating systems, it can
be run via a Windows emulator.
Q: Can I work with Ringo without the interface connected?
•A1: Yes, when the USB-I2C interface driver (FT232) is already installed
•A2: To get started, the USB-I2C interface driver (FT232) must be installed on the
computer for the Ringo software to work. To install the driver, the interface must be
connected (once only).
Q: When I connect the USB-I2C, it does not work.
•A1: To make the FT323 module operational, a driver is required. The driver is often
automatically installed (plug and play). However, sometimes a manual install is
required. Several drivers are included in the Ringo zip package. Watch the video
“installing USB driver manually” on the NXP website.
•A2: When the driver has been installed, but still it does not work:
Completely (‘delete the driver software for this device’) remove the driver and select
another driver included in the package. Or visit the FTDI chip website for more
information or driver versions.
6.2 USB - I2C interface
Q: Can I change settings in an TEA2016AATdev (development type) IC on the
power supply when the power supply is not running?
•A1: Yes. When you apply a low mains voltage of 50 V (AC), the HV source supplies the
IC and it can communicate via I2C. But the power supply does not start because the
mains voltage is still too low.
•A2: Yes. If an external power supply of 20 V is (temporarily) connected to SUPIC, the
IC is operational without starting the power supply.
Q: Can I change settings in an TEA2016AAT IC (non-development type) on the
power supply?
•Yes, but it is more complicated than with the TEA2016AATdev. The AN12330
application note shows how to do it in section "Programming ICs in the application".
You cannot make changes during operation because the pins for I2C communication
have a different function during operation.

NXP Semiconductors UM11521
RDK01DB1563 getting started
Q: There is no communication with the IC.
•A1: Check if the switch on the interface is in the correct position: 3-pin or 6-pin.
•A2: Check if the correct cable is connected (or both when using the programming
board).
•A3: Check if signal disturbance is blocking communication.
Q: I want to modify the board or do repairs on the board. Is there a circuit diagram?
•A1: The circuit diagram is included in the UM11235 user manual. This document is
available in the document folder on the USB stick or in the Help tab in Ringo.
Q: What is the function of the LEDs on the board?
•A1: The Ringo software can use them for indicating that the I2C connection is OK.
The indication differs between Ringo versions. In general, slow blinking indicates no
communication with the IC. And fast blinking indicates correct communication with the
IC.
6.3 Programming board
Q: Which cable must I connect when I want to work with the programming board?
•A1: Connect both the 3-pin and the 6-pin cables and select the correct I2C channel for
communication.
•A2: For a TEA2016AAT IC, only the 6-pin cable connection is required.
•A3: For a TEA2016AATdev IC, the 3-pin and and the 6-pin cables are required.
Q: I want to add an IC socket on the board. What is a suitable type?
•A1: Provisions in the board are for a Wells CTI 652B0162215 SO16 socket.
Q: I want to measure signals or modify the board. Is there a circuit diagram?
•A1: The circuit diagram is included in the document folder on the USB stick or in the
Help tab in Ringo.
6.4 RDK01DB1563 kit
Q: Can I also work with TEA2016AAT without buying the kit?
•A1: Yes. The TEA2016 IC can be used in a power supply. In this case, the IC standard
parameter settings are used.
•A2: When you want to use the option to modify the TEA2016 settings for optimizing
your design, the software and an interface board are necessary.
