Correct operation outside of these limits is not guaranteed. The programmer supply voltage can be derived from either the CON1 connector or the Target Vcc pin on any of the ISP Headers. The CON1 centre pin and the Target Vcc are physically joined together inside the programmer if the jumper J9 is fitted. Fig. 1.5.2 Programmer voltage supply range for reliable operation # Programmer mode Min Vcc Max Vcc Units 1 Programming a Target Device 3.05 5.00 V 2 Uploading Programming Projects to programmer FLASH 3.10 5.00 V Important note: The programmer electronics should operate reliably between the ‘Min Vcc’ and ‘Max Vcc’ voltage levels specified in the table above. This does NOT mean that every Target Device can also be programmed within this voltage range. To verify that a particular device can be programmed at a certain Vcc voltage: • Check the supply / programming voltage parameters for the actual device (IC) in the manufacturer’s datasheet. • Many devices have two different voltage range versions eg. 2.7 – 6.0V and 4.0 – 6.0V. Please ensure that you are programming the device within the stated voltage range. • Ensure that you have selected the required Target Vcc Voltage in your EQTools – Programming Project (*.ppm). e.g. if you are programming at +3.3V, you must set up this voltage in your Programming Project. This can be found in the EQTools - Project Builder <Target Vcc> tab. • For most Atmel AVR and AT89S devices, the FLASH and EEPROM Write Times increase as the Target Voltage decreases. The timings are automatically set for you in your project as long as you have declared the correct Target Vcc voltage in your project. 8 EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 1.5.3 Current Consumption / Parameters 1.5.3.1 Current Consumption The programmer can either be powered from the Target System via one of the ISP Headers or from an independent power supply via CON1. The table below details the programmer current consumption with a supply voltage of 5.0V and 3.3V for both ‘Standby’ mode and during a typical programming operation when the programmer is independently powered. If the programmer is to be powered from the Target System (typical of field use), then the Target System power supply must be capable of supplying the maximum current that can be drawn by the programmer during a programming operation. Fig. 1.5.3.1 Programmer voltage supply range for reliable operation (independently powered) # Programmer mode 1 LED Status CON1 Vcc (V) Min Typ Max Units Standby Mode 5.0 - 28.0 35.0 mA 2 Standby Mode 3.3 - 28.0 35.0 mA 3 Programming (BUSY) 5.0 - 47.0 60.0 mA 4 Programming (BUSY) 3.3 - 44.0 60.0 mA Status LED Key: Notes: The above measurements were taken with the programmer and Target System independently powered (i.e. J9 removed).

This connector is a 2.5mm jack socket. Fig. 1.5.4 CON1 – pin-out Description Voltage Centre pin +3.1V to +5.0V from external power supply Outer 0V (Ground connection) 1.5.5 DC Power Cable Specification The programmer is supplied with a DC power cable which plugs into CON1. The other end of this cable is supplied with bare wire ends for connecting to an external power supply. e.g. bench PSU. Cable Specification: • One end features a female 2.5mm DC jack plug • The other end of the cable is supplied with bare wire ends for connecting to an external power supply. e.g. bench PSU. • The black lead with the white stripe is the +VE cable. • The all black lead is the GROUND cable. • The external voltage applied to CON1 must be between 3.1 and 5.0V ! 10 EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 1.5.6 J5 – RS-232 Communications Port & Serial Cables 1.5.6.1 Connecting the programmer to the PC COM port The EPSILON5 programmer communicates with a PC via the RS-232 Communications Port (J5). A suitable 9-way to 9-way serial cable is supplied with the programmer. The programmer is supplied with the following PC Serial Cables / Adaptors: 1. 9-way D (female) to 9-way D (Male) Serial Cable This cable should be connected between the 9-way D-connector on the programmer and a spare 9way RS-232 COM port on your PC. 2. 9-way D (female) to 25-way D (Female) adaptor If your PC has a 25-way D connector, you will need to plug the 9-25 way adaptor onto the end of the 9-9 way Serial Cable as shown in the diagram below. 1.5.6.2 Serial Cable Length The serial cable supplied with the programmer is approximately 2m in length. If you wish to make your own longer cable, please ensure that you connect all 9 pins at each end in a straight-through pin-topin fashion. See fig. 1.5.6.2 for the pin-out specifications. The programmer features an ESD protected full RS-232 specification driver chipset and so should operate reliably when driving serial cables up to 10m in length. However, it is recommended to keep the serial cable as short as possible to enhance EMI immunity and reduce EMI emissions. Important note: The programmer uses ALL of the NINE pins of the COM port for different purposes. It is therefore imperative that the cable used to connect between the programmer and the PC COM port has all NINE cables connected. Failure to do this will result in the programmer not operating correctly.

An overview of the various control mechanisms is given below. Standalone Operation (Keypad) This indicates that the programmer can be operated without being connected to a PC or other control system. In this case an operator can control programming operations using a keypad on the programmer e.g. Epsilon5, FS2003, PPM3-MK2 ASCII Text Mode Control This indicates that the programmer can be controlled using a simple 'ASCII Serial Communications Protocol'. This is ideal for applications where a Remote System wishes to control the programmer using a serial communications link e.g. RS-232. ISP-PRO Software This software suite is capable of controlling up to 16 x Equinox Production ISP programmers on an RS-485 network at the same time. All programming operations are controlled via 'Programming Scripts' and 'Programming Projects' which have been created using EQTools. The application minimises user intervention during programming and logs all programming operations to an Interface Database. Labview Control (PC) This allows an Equinox programmer to be controlled by a remote Labview Application. The Labview application can launch 'Programming Scripts' and read/write unique data such as serial numbers and calibration data. Remote Application Control (PC) This allows an Equinox programmer to be controlled by a Remote Application written in e.g. Visual Basic, C++ etc. The Remote Application can launch 'Programming Scripts' and read/write unique data such as serial numbers and calibration data. ConsoleEDS This is a powerful utility which allows any Equinox ISP Programmer to be controlled from a PC application by executing simple command line instructions. This method of control is ideal for interfacing the programmer to any Windows application.

The key points to note are as follows: • The programmer can be powered from an external power supply via CON1 (V_EXT_PSU) using the DC power cable provided with the programmer. • The programmer can power the Target System if J9 is fitted and external power is supplied via CON1 • The programmer can be powered from the Target System if Jumper J9 is fitted and the Target System is powered. • If Jumper J9 is fitted then the Target Vcc is connected to the CON1 Vin terminal. • The internal circuitry of the programmer is powered at +3.0V via an on-board +3.0V supply. fig. 3.2.1. Explanation of all Power Supply Circuit Schematic labels # Item Description 1 V_EXT_PSU This is the voltage applied to the CON1 connector from an external power supply. 2 GND This is common ground of the programmer which is connected to CON1 GROUND and to the TARGET GROUND via one of the ISP Headers. 3 V_TVCC This is the voltage measured between the Vcc and Ground of the Target System. 4 I/O Driver Circuit This is the circuitry which translates the 3.0V I/O signals from the programmer ‘Supervisor Microcontroller’ to the Target System voltage levels. 5 Target Load This is the load presented to the programmer across the PROG_VCC and GROUND terminals of any ISP Header. 6 Bench Power Supply This simply indicates a stable DC power supply with a current limit facility. 7 F1 This is an internal resettable fuse rated at 1.0A. 8 F2 This is an optional fuse which should be placed in the PROG_VCC line if the jumper J9 is fitted and the programmer is powering the Target System. 9 D1 This is a 6V2 5W zener diode which is connected directly across the programmer DC Input (CON1). This diode will limit the supply to <6.2V. 10 D2 This is an optional 6V3 5W zener diode which can be connected across the Target Vcc and GROUND within the Test Fixture. This diode would help to prevent damage to the programmer due to the Target Vcc being > 5V. 11 J9 Jumper (J9) – Vcc Jumper Fitted – CON1 V_EXT_PSU is connected to TARGET_VCC Not Fitted – Programmer PSU is independent of Target Vcc 38 EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 Fig 3.2.2 – Programmer / Target System Power Supply Overview Schematic Please refer to fig 3.2.1 for an explanation of all circuit diagram labels etc. EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 39 3.3 Earthing requirements 3.3.1 Overview When setting up the programmer to In-System Program (ISP) a device on a Target System, extreme care must be taken to ensure that the 0V of the PC, programmer, Target System and any external devices are at the same ‘earth potential’. If you are using the programmer with a laptop computer, please read section 3.2.2 carefully. ESD Points to remember Failure to follow correct ESD procedures when using this product could lead to damage to the programmer and/or the Target System. • Wear an earthed wrist strap when handling either the programmer and/or any programmable device. • Ensure that the PC, programmer, Target System and any external devices are all connected to the same GROUND potential. 3.3.2 Laptop earthing issues The Problem: Most laptops use an external double-insulated mains power supply which is not earthed to mains earth. This means that the laptop earth is likely to be floating at some voltage other than 0V. If the programmer is attached to the PC COM port with the PC powered ON and then the ISP lead is plugged into an earthed Target System, then the PC GROUND will discharge through the COM port GROUND, through the programmer into the Target System. This ESD may damage both the programmer and the Target System ! The Solution • Ensure that the laptop is powered OFF when connecting the ISP cable from the programmer to an earthed Target system • Use the programmer in Standalone Mode if possible (ie. not connected to a PC) 3.3.3 Desktop PC earthing issues The Problem: The chassis on desktop PC must be connected to mains earth to comply with Health and Safety legislation. If the chassis is not earthed for some reason, the PC power supply GROUND will be floating and it is then possible to discharge a high level of energy stored in the power supply mains filter through the programmer into the Target System. This ESD may damage both the programmer and the Target System ! The solution: • Ensure that the PC chassis is properly earthed to mains earth. • Connect an earthing bond wire from the PC chassis to the GROUND connection of either the programmer or the Target system / Test Fixture. 40 EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 3.3.4 Earthing recommendations To avoid catastrophic damage to PC, programmer or target system: • Ensure that both your target system and PC are connected to a common earth point • Make sure that all interconnections are made before applying power to PC and target system • • • If you are using a laptop or PC which is not connected to mains earth, it is recommended that you make a hard-wired connection from the COM port D-connector shell and the target system to a common earth point Avoid plugging and unplugging ISP connector while either the PC or Target System is powered up Please ensure that any devices connected to the user target system are also properly grounded to the same common earth point Warning! Any damage caused to the programmer by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) through inadequate earthing is not covered under the warranty of the product. EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 41 3.4 Programmer Powers the Target System 3.4.1 Overview In this scenario, the programmer is constantly powered from an external power supply (not supplied) via the connector CON1. The Jumper J9 is fitted which connects the voltage applied to CON1 to the PROG_VCC pin on each ISP header. The external power supply voltage V_EXT_PSU is therefore routed directly to the Target System Vcc. When an ISP Cable is connected from the programmer to a Target System, the Target System will power up to the external power supply voltage V_EXT_PSU. When the cable is removed, the Target System will power off. 3.4.2 Hardware Setup - Programmer powers the Target System DC Power Cable The programmer is supplied with a ‘DC Power Cable’ which plugs into the CON1 - DC Power Input Connector on the programmer. • The black lead with the white stripe is the +VE cable. • The all black lead is the GROUND cable. • The external voltage applied to CON1 must be between 3.1 and 5.0V ! • The Target System must not draw more than 300 mA from the programmer. 42 EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 3.4.3 Circuit Schematic - Programmer powers the Target System Please refer to fig 3.2.1 for an explanation of all circuit diagram labels etc. EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 43 3.4.4 Set up instructions - Programmer powers the Target System The instructions below detail how to set up the programmer / Target System so that the programmer provides power to the Target System.

Each header provides the necessary signals to program the Target Device plus Vcc (power) and GND (Ground). The choice of which header to use depends on the ‘device type’ and the algorithm being employed to program the device. To locate the ISP Headers (J3, J6, J7 & J8), remove the four screws from the back of the programmer and then carefully remove the lid. If you hold the programmer with the RS-232 connector towards your, the four ISP headers will be in the positions shown in the figure below. Pin 1 is designated on each header and should match with the corresponding pin 1 of the cable to be plugged into the header. Please see section 4.2 for an overview of each ISP Header. EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007 57 4.2 ISP Header Selection Chart (by header) The FOUR ISP Headers featured on the EPSILON5 are detailed in the table below.

This cable is terminated with a 10-way IDC 0.1” female polarised plug at each end. The cable is wired as a so-called ‘straighthrough’ cable with pin 1-1, 2-2 etc. The polarised ISP Header ensures that the ISP Cable cannot be plugged in the wrong way around by mistake. If you are planning to design such a header onto your Target System, it is strongly recommended that a similar polarised header is used. This will help to prevent accidental damage to both the programmer and the Target System. Pin 1 of the ISP cable can be determined by looking for a small arrow on the plastic part of the ISP female plug. If the cable has a RED stripe on one cable, this usually also indicates pin 1. If you are using the programmer in a production environment and constantly plugging / unplugging the ISP cable into/from the Target System, you may find that the cable eventually fails. Spare ISP cables can be ordered from Equinox in this eventuality. 74 EPSILON5 MKII Programmer - User Guide V1.12 – 1st August 2007
