1. Out of the Box

The NXP analog product development boards provide an easy-to-use platform for evaluating NXP products. The boards support a range of analog, mixed-signal and power solutions. They incorporate monolithic integrated circuits and system-in-package devices that use proven high-volume technology. NXP products offer longer battery life, a smaller form factor, reduced component counts, lower cost, and improved performance in powering state-of-the-art systems.

This page will guide you through the process of setting up and using the P3S0210BQ-ARD evaluation board.

2.2 Board Description

The P3S0210BQ-ARD evaluation board is powered via a USB micro-B connector, J51. There are on-board LDOs to convert 5 V from the micro-B connector to other power rails to provide power to P3S0210 VCCP1, VCCP2, VCCS, VCCE, VCCR and other components on the board. The voltage at each LDO output can be selected via the headers at the LDO FB pin. The output voltage is set with a resistor divider, and a jumper is used to select the lower resistor to set the LDO output voltage.

Port 1 and Port 2 are preconfigured to 1.8 V and PortS is configured to 3.3 V. Other voltages can be selected to match a specific I3C controller/target via the on-board jumpers (see UM11909, P3S0210BQ-ARD Evaluation Board User Manual). It is strongly recommended that the board user manual should be read first before any attempt to use the board.

2.3 Board Components

2.3.1 P3S0210 VCCP1, VCCP2, VCCS, VCCE, VCCR Select Jumper Settings

As default, P3S0210 power rails are set as onboard power as shown in the next table. External power rail can be used by removing the jumper from 2-3, and placing it on 1-2

VCCE	`J11` (1V8), `J12` (1V2), `J13` (1V0)	`J11` (default)	VCCE is set to 1V8 VCEE is set to 1V8

2.3.3 P3S0210 Enable and Switch Select Jumper Settings

P3S0210 enable and channel switch can be manually selected or be controlled by the external MCU via the Arduino extension headers.

Pin	Header	Jumper on	Comment
OE	`J42`	1-2-3	1-2 enable (default), 2-3 disable
SEL	`J44`	1-2-3	1-2 Port 2 connected PortS, 2-3 Port 1 connected PortS (default)

2.3.4 On-board I²C and I3C Devices

The I2C and I3C addresses in the folloring table are the factory default addresses. These addresses can be changed to other addresses via headers. Please see the green footnotes on the P3S0210BQ-ARD evaluation board schematic.

Type	Device	Port1	Port2	PortS
I2C	PCA9538	U10 - Adr. 0xE0	U14 - Adr. 0xE2	U11 - Adr. 0xE4
I3C	P3T1755	U8 - Adr. 0x90	U15 - Adr. 0x92	U9 - Adr. 0x94

3. Configure the Hardware

3.1 Configure Hardware

Unpack the board and power it with the USB2 cable
Connect the external 1.8 V I3C controller to Port1 via J21, or Port S via J20 of 3V3 I3C controller.

Note: As default, Port1 has on-board 2.2K pull-up. If the pull-up is on the I3C controller, then the on-board pull-up can be disabled via J37 and J38

The I3C controller then can communicate with the 8-bit GPIO PCA9538 via I²C, or the temperature sensor P3T1755 via I3C on Port1. The 1.8 V I3C controller can also communicate with the 8-bit GPIO PCA9538 via I²C, or the temperature sensor P3T1755 via I3C on PortS as well. These devices are located at different I2C/I3C addresses.
