  • Page 9: Power Connector

    DE9 RS-232 Connector The RS-232 connector is a male DE9. Like PCs, BrightSign XD players are DTE devices. The input to the chip accepts a range between +25V and -25V, so it is compatible with standard +12V and -12V signaling.

    The connector can also supply 3.3V at up to 500mA to an external device. The 3.3V output is polyfuse-protected and can source up to 500mA. If one BrightSign player is driving the inputs on another BrightSign player, then you can drive at most three inputs from one output. The following calculations explain this limitation: Note: The GPIO outputs have 100 Ω...

  • Page 16: Environmental And Power Usage

    BrightSign XD players are designed to be used between 0°C and 40°C, at 90% maximum relative humidity, non- condensing. The power supply on the BrightSign XD series is 36W and 12V at 3A. These players will use approximately 1A of power when playing a 720p or 1080i MPEG2 HD source file.

    There are seven voltage levels present in the player: 12V, 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V, and 1V. Reset BrightSign XD players have a Low Voltage Reset circuit. This circuit will hold the RESET_L signal low until a valid 3.3V power source is present.
