3.4.3 External MCU Connection

AS7225 demo board allows onboard MCU to be suspended and an external MCU can be
connected to the board to control AS7225 device and/or onboard LEDs. This would minimize the
hardware development time and test AS7225 in a real application.
The onboard MCU can be suspended either by installing a 0Ω resistor on R70 or by pulling EDD
signal to LOW. The EDD signal is connected to pin8 of onboard MCU and pin7 of J3. The external
MCU could pull the EDD to LOW to suspend onboard MCU. Then the external MCU can control

AS7225 through I
C bus on J3 as well as onboard LEDs with PWM/FB signals on J3/J2. Extra
sensors can be added via the I

LED Circuitries

There are six LED strings on AS7225 demo board. Each LED string has three LEDs in serial and it
is controlled by a pai of MOSFETs. PWM and FB signals are used by the MCU to control the
current through the LEDs.

Software Description

4.1

AS7225 Evaluation User Interface

The demo kit comes with AS7225 Evaluation User Interface software running on a Windows
computer for evaluating AS7225 features. Please refer to the application note in the USB Data Stick
for how to use the software.
4.2

Windows Terminal Application

The host MCU supports UART interface with AT commands to communicate to AS7225. The AT
commands can be used to configure AS7225. There are also some commands can be used for the
host MCU configuration.
Any Windows terminal application would be good for sending the commands. A freeware, Putty.exe
as an example, can be downloaded form the internet. The comm port configuration should be
115200 Baud Rate, 8-Bit Data, No Plarity, 1-Bit Stop.
