Chapter 1. Overview EVB-USB4715 OVERVIEW The EVB-USB4715 is a demonstration and evaluation platform that provides the nec- essary requirements and interface options for evaluating the USB4715, a 4-Port HS USB Smart Hub on a 4-layer RoHS-compliant Printed Circuit Board (PCB). This will allow the user to gain an understanding of the product and accelerate the integration of the USB4715 into the user’s design.
EVB-USB4715 Evaluation Kit User’s Guide • Green LED indicators for 3.3V supply. • Terminal block connector for use with an external bench supply. • Barrel connector for use with a Microchip 12V power supply. • Removable/non-removable downstream ports can be configured with select shunt J1 and J21.

2. Using a USB Type-A plug to USB micro-B plug cable, connect the EVB-USB4715 to a USB host via the upstream “Port 0” USB micro-B socket (J4). 3. You may now connect devices to any of the downstream ports to enumerate and use those devices with the USB host.
EVB-USB4715 EVALUATION KIT USER’S GUIDE Chapter 3. Hardware Configuration HARDWARE CONFIGURATION OPTIONS FIGURE 3-1: EVB-USB4715 REV B (TOP-SIDE) 3.1.1 Configuration 3.1.1.1 EXTERNAL SPI FLASH Upon power-up, the USB4715 first looks for an external SPI ROM device and a valid signature in the Flash. If one is found, the external ROM is enabled and code execution is initiated from the external SPI ROM device.

If configuration is not done through SPI or SMBus2, additional configuration is available through two hardware straps: CFG_BC_EN and CFG_NON-REM. The controls are configured by selecting one of six resistor values for each pin. The EVB-USB4715 demonstrates two of the six possible resistor values for each of CFG_BC_EN and CFG_NON-REM.
3.1.4 USB Type-C Ports The EVB-USB4715 has two Type-C ports. These are USB 2.0 HS ports. The USB Type-C ports utilize the Microchip UPD360 Type-C port controller in order to detect USB Type-C attachment and plug orientation. The UPD360 monitors the voltage on the USB Type-C CC wires in order to detect USB Type-C attach events.
“SMB-1961‘” SMB1 connection for the audio codec 3.1.8 Test Points on USB4715 Table 3-6 describes the test points included on the EVB-USB4715. A header may be permanently installed on the through-hole test points if needed. TABLE 3-6: USB4715 TEST POINT DESCRIPTIONS REF.
