SSM2518 REV 1 EVALUATION BOARD OPERATION (PRELIMINARY!)

Description of Setup:

The SSM2518 evaluation setup consists of the following:
1) A fully integrated SSM2518 evaluation board, EVAL-SSM2518Z
2) Analog Devices USB-to-I2C adapter dongle, EVAL-ADUSB2Z.
The SSM2518 can operate in stand-alone mode without the need for I2C control, as shown in Figure 1. In order to
evaluate full functionality of the SSM2518, the user must use I2C. A GUI has been developed using the SigmaStudio
development platform. The ADUSB2Z dongle is able to interface between the GUI and the evaluation board, as
shown in Figure 2.

  • Page 2 P21. The logic level for these signals is established on U6 – U9. I2CVDD: This is the pull-up voltage for the I2C pins of SSM2518. This voltage can be set to either onboard IOVDD or and external I2C pull-up by inserting a jumper across the designated pins of P22.
  • Page 3 Section 2 – Digital Audio Source: The SSM2518 evaluation board has two options for digital audio signals: 1) Use an external digital audio source, such as Audio Precision PSIA 2722 (source on pins P8-11), or 2) Use the onboard digital audio receiver and source digital audio using the SPDIF or TORX connections.
  • Page 4 Section 3 – I2C Section: The SSM2518 can operate with or without I2C control. If it is desired to evaluate the part in Stand Alone mode, simply insert a jumper across the SAMOD and DVDD terminals of P15. To put the part into I2C mode, insert a jumper across the SAMOD and GND terminals of P15.
