2. SETTING UP THE EVALBOARD
Plug a PAN4555 Carrierboard on one of the three 34-pins headers B,C or D as shown in Figures
1 and 2. Please take care that pin 1 of the Carrierboard connects to pin1 of the testboard
according to the “1” marking on the PCBs.
Important: Only 1 PAN4555 carrierboard may be plugged on the testboard.
The other 34-pin headers/sockets are provided for demo application boards like sensors,
actuators, etc. On slot A a socket is mounted instead of double pin rows for applications
using a plug with pins. For details on the testboard see chapter 3 and the testboard schematic in
chapter 10.
Mount the 50Ohms 2,4GHz antenna with SMA male plug on the PAN4555 SMA socket.
Set the +2,7Vdc supply jumper to the corresponding 2-pin header B-C-D.
Instead of a jumper an amperemeter for measuring the module current on VCC can be
connected.
Remark: In case of inserting an amperemeter the voltage drop at the amperemeters internal
resistor reduces the Vcc voltage applied to PAN4555 depending on the current drawn. Thus
check if the amperemeter used has an internal resistance of sufficiently low value.
In addition to a default +2,7Vdc Vcc supply a +5Vdc regulated voltage is available on the headers
(this does not apply to usage of USB as power supply) which could be useful for application
boards needing a higher supply voltage (i.e. with white LEDs). +5Vdc on the headers must be
activated by setting JP2.
Important: Do not connect the +5Vdc to PAN4555 directly.
The total available current from Vcc plus the current from +5Vdc is approximately 270mA
maximum, provided that the power source voltage applied to P1-P2-P3 does not drop below
approximately 6,6Vdc.
For the location of switches and jumpers on the Evaluation board see chapter 3.

4. OPERATION OF THE TESTBOARD
If not already done please follow the basic setting up instructions as in Chapter 2
Check if the jumper plugs are set as indicated in Figure 2. The functions of the jumpers are as
follows:
jumper name function to set as in Figure 2
A Vcc for module in Slot A* do not care
B Vcc for module in Slot B* do not care
C Vcc for module in Slot C* yes
D Vcc for module in Slot D* do not care
JP2 5Vdc feed to Slots A, B, C, D** no
JP3 Vcc setting 2.1-2.7-3.4V; see Table 2 no for Vcc=2.7Vdc default
JP4 Vcc setting 2.1-2.7-3.4V; see Table 2 yes for Vcc=2.7Vdc default
JP7 Vcc regulator output feed to A, B, C, D yes
(Table 1)
* An amperemeter for measuring module current can be inserted instead of the jumper
** +5Vdc supply (independent on JP3 and JP4 settings) option is provided for application demos.
It is not used on PAN4555 carrierboard.
Check if the port switches S1 near to the COM2 connector for RS232 are all set to off position
except the selected UART as noted in Figure 2/Table 3.
5. POWER SUPPLY
5.1. D.C. POWER FROM A POWER SUPPLY
Set the power switch SW7 to the position 2 = off.
Connect a power supply with 7-9VDC to one of the power inputs (P1 or P2).
In case of P1 use a plug with 5,5mm diameter and the positive terminal at the centre contact.
For use of the P2, 2mm contacts the black socket P2-X1 is the negative/ground contact and
the red socket P2-X2 is the positive terminal.
A linear regulator on the testboard regulates the input voltage down to the +5V DC board
supply. A second linear regulator regulates the +5V DC down to the module VCC supply of
2,1/2,7/3,4Vdc

5.2. D.C. POWER FROM A USB DEVICE:
In case no dedicated supply is available, DC supply can be taken from an USB connection.
The +5V DC from the USB feeds the linear regulator for the modules VCC supply of
2,1/2,7/3,4Vdc (see table 1).
Please note that communication via the USB connector is not possible.
Please take into account that when using the +5V DC feed to the 34-pin-headers in
combination with USB power supply the voltage is not +5V but unregulated 4.3 V DC due to
the voltage drop at a protection diode connected in series on the testboard.
Warning: Do not overload the USB power source. Check for the current available from
your USB device in order to avoid malfunction of or damage to your USB power source.
5.3. POWER ON
Set SW7 to the position 1 = on. (With power from USB position 1 is off and position 2 is on).
D7 should be lit indicating that +5Vdc supply is available on the testboard. D8 should be lit
indicating that the regulated Vcc module supply is available.
The dc regulator output voltage is set with a jumper on JP3 or JP4 as follows:
jumper on 2-pin header regulator output voltage VCC remarks
JP4 only 2,7 Vdc typical for PAN4555
JP3 only 3,4 Vdc maximum for PAN4555
no jumpers 2,1 Vdc minimum for PAN4555
(Table 2)

6. SERIAL PORTS
The evalboard is equipped with a serial port connector (COM2). The COM port can be linked to
either UART1 (SCI1) or UART2 (SCI2) on the module. This is done with the S1 switch, which has
to be set as follows:
UART1
active
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
SW1
settings
on off on off off off off off
UART2
active
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
SW1
settings
off on off on off off off off
(Table 3)
Remark: For PAN4555 only UART1 is used, SW1-2 and SW1-4 are have to be set to OFF.
7. RESET
Reset of the testboard and the boards at A,B,C or D can be done with the button named
“RESET” next to the USB socket.
8. BDM CONNECTOR
Reprogramming of PAN4555 can be done via the on-board BDM connector.
For programming, the P&E USB HCS08/HCS12 Multilink adapter USB-ML-12 available through
http://www.pemicro.com/ is recommended, but any programmer capable of flashing the
MC9S08GT60 Controller on the Module can be used.
The 6-pin BDM header has the same pinning as the Multilink adapter cable and is located
between the reset switch and the COM2 Connector.
Please make sure that pin1 of the plug connects to pin1 of the header. The correct device
selection for PAN4555 is a Motorola MC9S08GT60.
