FDC1004QEVM User's Guide Introduction The FDC1004QEVM evaluation kit is a plug and play system to test and evaluate the FDC1004Q, AEC- Q100 qualified, 4-channel capacitive to digital converter. The EVM is a breakable PCB which consists of 3 sections. The first section is a USB to I2C converter based on MSP430F5528 micro-controller, the second section contains the FDC1004Q and the third section is a touchless sensor (to demonstrate the sensitivity of the FDC1004Q) .
USB to I2C FDC1004 SENSOR Figure 1. FDC1004QEVM : Sections Input/Output Connector Description J1, J2: 4x1 Header: the I/O ports of sections between the USB to I2C and the FDC1004Q sections. This provides the I2C communication channel and the power connections between these two sections should the EVM be separated into sections.
I2C communication with FDC1004Q is fully managed by the MSP430F5528IRGC microcontroller (U3). The FDC1004Q has a fixed I2C address. SW Setup Ensure that the FDC1004QEVM GUI and the drivers have been installed on the host computer. Plug the EVM into an available USB port on the host. Operation Plug the EVM into the host computer.
