This chapter describes the concepts for use of the MKY02 (HUB) in the CUnet. 1.1 Role of MKY02 MKY02 is a kind of HUB-IC that constitutes a HUB to be used in the CUnet network. Be sure to read the “CUnet Introduction Guide”...
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) 1.3 CUnet Configuration using HUBs Adding HUBs to the CUnet network, the user system can satisfy it’s own needs (1) to (3) described above. 1.3.1 Extending Total Length of Network Cable Adding HUB(s) to the CUnet network, the user can extend the total length of the network cable. Figure 1.2 shows an example of extending the total length of the network cable.
Page 13
Chapter 1 Concepts for Using MKY02 (HUB) The practical limit of network cable length varies with the performance of drivers/receiv- ers, cable types, cabling environments, and how many cables are multi-drop connected. StepTechnica's recommended network cable length is about 1/2 of the cable length limit obtained from our practical experiments.
The network cables can be branched by adding HUBs to the CUnet network. Figure 1.3 shows an example of an CUnet configuration in which network cables are branched. Figure 1.3 shows the network cables that are branched in T shape. Adding a HUB using the MKY02 also enables multiple branchings with many ports.
Chapter 1 Concepts for Using MKY02 (HUB) 1.3.3 Eliminating Connection or Disconnection of Termination Resistor to or from Each Device In a network using the CUnet, termination resistors (Rt) cannot be connected to the terminal connected in the intermediate position (the halfway position in the network cable) of the multi-drop network. However, a “one- to-one”...
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) 1.3.4 Star Topology Mounting a HUB-IC to the terminal containing the CUnet IC can offer a star topology (Fig. 1.5). Further- more, network cables in a star topology can also be multi-drop-connected. 1 - 8...
Chapter 1 Concepts for Using MKY02 (HUB) 1.4 Basic HUB Connection Figure 1.6 shows the basic connection of HUBs added to a CUnet network. The user must know the number of HUBs to be added in the route of all routes that pass most frequently through the HUB. The number of added HUBs is called the “number of inserted (HUBs)”.
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) 1.5 Multi-drop Network of HUBs When adding HUBs to the CUnet, the user can connect HUBs as multi-drop (Fig. 1.7). The multi-drop network of HUBs is suitable for a user system in which the network cables should be divided.
1.6 Port Addition to HUB By cascading MKY02s, the user can add more ports to a HUB composed of the MKY02. For example, a cascade connection of three MKY02s enables the HUB to have 24 ports (8 ports × 3) (Fig.
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) 1.7 MKY02 Operation This section describes the operation of the MKY02. Be sure to read this section before adding HUBs to the CUnet. 1.7.1 Receiving and Sending Packets When the MKY02 receives a packet from any port, it corrects the signal constituting the received packet into a complete format and sends it to all other ports, resulting in a maximum time lag of “46 ×...
The CUnet uses a RZ signal format for signals constituting a packet. Even if the signal format of the received packet is transformed up to ±49%, the MKY02, which is a kind of HUB-IC that can be inserted into the CUnet network, corrects the packet into a RZ signal format to send it (Fig. 1.11). Therefore, in a system in which a signal propagates via multiple HUBs, the user can extend the network cable length by “the num-...

Chapter 3 Single Connection of MKY02 This chapter describes the pin functions and how to connect pins required to design a “HUB with two to eight ports configured using one MKY02” inserted into the CUnet. 3.1 Voltage Levels of Pins Connecting to Signal Pins .....3-4 3.2 Supplying Driving Clock and Hardware Reset Signal....
Page 33
Before connecting the MKY02, be sure to connect the TEST1 pin (pin 46) and TEST2 pin (pin 47) to the GND pins. In a “HUB configured using one MKY02” to be inserted into the CUnet, be sure to fix the function select pin (HC: pin 50) at Low.
A pull-up resistor can also be connected between the 5.0-V power supplies. However, if the input voltage of the MKY02 pins exceed 3.3 V, leakage current flows into the MKY02 pins (Fig. 3.1). (3) Because the High-level voltages does not meet the 5.0-V CMOS input specifications, the MKY02 out- put pins cannot be connected to the CMOS input pins of peripheral logic circuits driven by the 5.0-V...
This section describes how to supply a clock that drives the MKY02 and the hardware reset signal. 3.2.1 Supplying Driving Clock Connect an oscillator-generated 48-MHz clock to the Xi pin (pin 34) of the MKY02 for driving clock. The specifications for supplying an external clock to the Xi pin are as follows: (1) The upper frequency limit is 50 MHz and there is no lower frequency limit.
6 MHz 1.5 MHz 750 kHz The configuration to input cascade clocks output from the pins of the MKY02 to the pins of the MKY02 again enables cascade connection of the MKY02 described in “Chapter 4 . To design the “HUB with two to eight ports config- Cascade Connection of MKY02”...
3.2.3 Hardware Reset When a Low-level signal is input to the #RST (ReSeT) pin (pin 35), the MKY02 is hardware-reset. If a period in which the Low-level signal has been input is less than “one clock of the AX0-pin cascade clock”, the signal is ignored to prevent a malfunction.
3.3.1 Handling of FH Pin The FH pin (pin 51) of the MKY02 does not function when designing a HUB for CUnet. Therefore, fix this pin at High or Low (Fig. 3.5). When left open, the pin can be fixed at High by an internal pull-up resistor.
1 to 7. Connect the output signals of the transmit-enable pins (TXE1 to TXE7) of the MKY02 to the driver-enable input pins of the TRX connected to ports 1 to 7. Connect the receiver out- put signals of the TRX to the input pins (RXD1 to RXD7) of the MKY02 (Fig. 3.7).
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) 3.3.4 Recommended Network Connection Figure 3.9 shows a recommended network connection. The TRX (driver/receiver components) consists of an RS-485 driver/receiver (LSI driven at 5.0 V) and a pulse transformer. Recommended network cables include Ethernet LAN network cables (10BASE-T, Category 3 or higher) and shielded network cables.
3.4.1 Packet Receive Monitor The MKY02 has a #LEDRCV pin (pin 44) that outputs a Low level for a given time when any of the eight ports receives a packet. When an LED that goes on at Low level is connected to this #LEDRCV pin, it indi- cates that the HUB of the MKY02 is operating correctly.
3.4.2 Packet Error Monitor The MKY02 has a #LEDRZE pin (pin 45) that outputs a Low level for a given time when any port receives an error packet. When an LED that goes on at Low level is connected to this #LEDRZE pin, it indicates that any port of the MKY02 has received an error packet.
The MKY02 stores the status of the port that has received a packet for a time of “2 ”. The MKY02 outputs the stored status to the RLDT pin as the signal format shown in Figure 3.12 for a next × T time of “2...
Page 44
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) The hardware designer of a HUB needs to determine the port receive monitor LEDs for individual ports and the values of current-limiting resistors shown in Figures. 3.13 and 3.14 to meet the output specifications for added latches.
Chapter 3 Single Connection of MKY02 3.5 Handling Cascade Connection Pins When designing a HUB with two to eight ports configured using one MKY02, be sure to perform the fol- lowing processing so that the cascade pins of the MKY02 do not function (Fig. 3.15).
MKY02 User’s Manual (for CUnet) 3.7 Example Circuit for Single Connection of MKY02 Figure 3.16 shows an example circuit for a HUB with eight ports. In the example circuit, 3, 6, and 12 Mbps can be set by DIP Switch (DIP-SW) and a receive monitor circuit has been added.
Chapter 4 Cascade Connection of MKY02 This chapter describes the pin functions and how to connect pins required to design a “multiport HUB (with nine or more ports) (refer to “1.6 Port Addition to HUB” ) config- ured using multiple MKY02s” to be inserted into the CUnet.
Packets” ) increases in subsequent stacked ports. (2) One or two ports of the MKY02 cannot be used. The increased time lag in the above (1) may be unuse- ful especially for the CUnet used by a user system requiring high real-timeness.
4.1.2 Port Addition by Cascade Connection The MKY02 has cascade connection pins to solve the problems caused by stacking. If more than one MKY02 is used, the MKY02s can be handled as if they were one HUB-IC by connecting the cascade connection pins (Fig. 4.2).
(6) Leave the cascade pins COx2 (COE2, COD2, COP2) of the MKY02 with highest-priority open. Figure 4.2 shows that, of the three MKY02s, the MKY02 on the upper side is given the highest priority. If multiple MKY02s are cascade-connected, ports are assigned priorities in descending order. Therefore, num- ber the ports according to priority (Fig.
“priority” cascade connection pins (COE1, COP1, COD1, and COHR) and the “reverse-pri- ority” cascade connection pins (COE2, COP2, and COD2). (2) The higher-priority MKY02 transmits the packet to all ports using the signal input to the cascade con- nection pins (CIE2, CIP2, and CID2).
4.2.3 Connection of Cascade Clocks and Determination of Baud Rate The MKY02 has a circuit which generates a cascade clock. A cascade clock for a baud rate suitable for the settings of the BPS1 and BPS0 pins from the clock to be input to the Xi pin (refer to “3.2.2 Setting Cas-...
In the “port-added HUB” configured using cascade-connecting multiple MKY02s, connect the TRX to port 0 of the MKY02 (refer to ) and to each port 1 to 7 of the MKY02 (refer to “3.3.2 Connection of Port 0” ). For the handling of unused ports, refer to “3.3.3 Connection of Ports 1 to 7”...
