USER’S GUIDE Chapter 1. MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard INTRODUCTION The MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard provides a simple, low-cost board to evaluate the MCP2517FD family of devices. The board features one mikroBUS™ socket to accommodate the MCP2517FD click Board. The MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard together with the MCP2517FD click Board can be used to implement a CAN FD node.
MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard User’s Guide MCP251XFD CAN FD MOTHERBOARD FEATURES Figure 1-1 illustrates the main features of the MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard: 1. PIC32MX470F512H microcontroller 2. mikroBUS socket 3. Debug headers for monitoring the MCP2517FD I/O 4. DSC1121 8 MHz MEMS Clock Generator 5.
5. DB9 CAN connector 6. mikroBUS click connector with MCP2517FD specific I/O pin assignment The ATA6563 may not require the ESD protection diodes and capacitors. FIGURE 1-2: MCP2517FD click Board. 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS50002556A-page 13 Arrow.com. Arrow.com. Arrow.com.

2.1.2 Clock Generator The MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard uses the DSC1121, which is a Microchip MEMS clock generator, as the default clock source into the microcontroller. The DSC1121 on this board has been programmed to generate an output frequency of 8 MHz and is offered in a small 2.5 x 2.0 mm package.
FIGURE 2-1: mikroBUS Interface POWER SOURCES The MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard must be powered using a +5V DC regulated power source. The user has two options to connect the power: • USB connector (J14), or • Test loops: 5VIN and GND1.
Figure 2-2 illustrates an example CAN FD network. The MCP2517FD click Board is plugged into the MCP251XFD CAN FD Motherboard. A CAN FD tool from K2L is connected to the MCP2517FD click Board using twisted pair wires. The demonstration board is powered using a Mini-USB cable. Alternatively, the board can be powered using a 5V power supply connected between 5VIN and GND1.
