Daisy chaining

More demonstration boards can be connected in daisy chain mode.

To drive two or more boards in daisy chain configuration:

1.

Connect the STEVAL-PCC009V2 board 10-pin connector to the SPI_IN connector of

the first demonstration board through the 10-pole flat cable.

2.

Open the termination jumper (see Section 1.1: EVAL6480H on page 5 and Section 1.2:

EVAL6482H on page 14).

3.

Connect the SPI_OUT connector of the first demonstration board to the SPI_IN of the

next one through the 10-pole flat cable.

4.

Repeat point 2 and 3 for all the others board of the chain but the last one.

5.

Check the termination jumpers of the demonstration boards: all the jumpers but the last

one should be opened.

Note:

Increasing the number of devices connected in chain could degrade SPI communication

performances. If communication issues occur, try to reduce the SPI clock speed.
