EVB-20022 USER GUIDE

I/O Address Selection

The EVB-20022 is a 16 bit I/O mapped card. Addresses A3-A15 are user selectable at switches S2 and S3. For

example, 02E0h would be 000000101110.

Node ID Selection

The EVB-20022 is equipped with an on-board ID switch, S1. The COM20022 network controller requires a software

programmable ID, therefore the switch does not automatically provide a node ID to the COM20022.

COM20022 ICs

The chip can be attached to the board in two different ways: it can either be socketed or it can be mounted right to the

board on U8. Only one or the other can be done, not both.

LEDs

In the front of the card, there are four LEDs. The PWR LED indicates that there is power on the board. The CPU LED

shows CPU I/O activity. The TX LED shows the data being transmitted. The DMA LED shows DMA activity.

Interrupts/DMAs

Use JP1 for interrupt selection. IRQs 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 15 can be selected. DACK selection is done at

JP2. DACKs 0, 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7 can be selected. DRQ selection is done at JP3. DRQs 0, 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7 can be

selected. If DMAs are being used, both the DACK and DRQ must both be set to the same value.

Media Interfaces (Transceivers)

The COM20022 supports four types of transceivers:

ARCNET Coax operation is valid only at 2.5 Mbps and use SMSC HYC9088 hybrid

Twisted Pair line interface operation is valid only at 2.5 Mbps

Direct coupled RS-485

Isolated RS-485

Software

For evaluation purposes SMSC provides DEMOAT, an MS DOS software utility which can be used to verify and

evaluate the COM20022 evaluation board. DEMOAT was developed at SMSC to both setup and verify basic

functionality of the COM20022 evaluation. The software provides a general user interface, which can be used to

change, or Read/Write register information. This software utility can also be used to both transmit and receive

ARCNET packets. When using this utility in a general network configuration, multiple ARCNET nodes must be

operational. A minimum of two ISA based PCs must be connected via the appropriate cable for correct operation.

Both machines must have the DEMOAT installed and loaded. Once the software is loaded, registers can either be

initialized at their default settings or changed to your custom requirements. At this point traffic can be produced to

send and verify ARCNET frames of data from node to node or PC to PC.

Installing DEMOAT

At the a:\ prompt type DEMOAT

Loading DEMOAT software

1. From within the Arcnet directory Type "Demoat". When the software loads, it prompts the user for the

ARCNET evaluation board type.

2. Type "a", for COM20020 to test COM20022. If a screen comes up asking if the board is a COM20020,

type "y". The program will ask for the I/O address, type the address in that is selected by S3 and S2,

typically 2e0.

3. Next, the main menu will come up. When using any of the transceivers except the coax (BNC), you

need to do a setup with option A. If the coax transceiver is being used, go to step 7.

4. At the next menu type "a". The screen will have a list of registers and their values. Got to the config

the previous menu.

5. Select "b" from the menu. Change the register labeled IOH_1. The left most bit (P1MODE) needs to be

change from a "0" to a "1". Exit back to the main menu.

6. At the main menu, select option "D" to save all of the changes that have been made to the registers.

7. To start the test, select "I" from the main menu, Ping-Pong. This is only to be done on one machine.

8. A menu will come up asking how many other nodes, and the node ID of the other nodes. Make sure the

nodes IDs are not the same. If the test is running correctly, "T" and "R" should alternate scrolling down

the screen on both machines .

Coaxial Interface

The coaxial interface uses a standard 93-ohm BNC connector, the same as a 50-ohm BNC, and requires a RG-62

type cable with 93-ohm terminations. The following guidelines for bus topology should be used for coaxial interface:

1. Max. distance(without repeaters).............1000'

2. Min. distance between nodes ...................3'

3. Max. number of nodes per segment........8 (i.e. no repeaters)

4. Max number of nodes with repeaters ......255

Operation is valid only at 2.5 Mbps and uses the SMSC HYC9088 hybrid (U15).

To setup the board for coaxial interface, with the use of SMSC DEMOAT software, perform the following steps:

1. Install both jumpers horizontally at JP11 (Differential paired data)

2. Install the jumper horizontally at JP12 (Coax filter)

3. Set jumper blocks JP13 and JP5 both to D (Transmit data and receive data)

4. Set I/O board address as specified in I/O address selection in User Guide (e.g. 02E0)

5. Set Node ID as specified in Node ID selection in User Guide

Note

Make sure JP6, JP8, JP9, and JP10 are left unconnected.

Note

If socketed COM20022 (SKT1) is being utilized, U8 (alternate COM20022 device) must not be mounted on

evaluation board.
