Hardware Variant Resistor Settings

The MCT8315ZH and MCT8315ZT devices uses configurable resistor dividers to control the MODE, SLEW, and ADVANCE settings. When using the MCT8315ZH or MCT8315ZT:

  • SPI enable resistors in the Pop. if SPI silkscreen box needs to be depopulated (R13–R16).
  • DIR resistor R17 in the Pop. if HW silkscreen box needs to be populated.
  • The resistor dividers in the HW Variant Resistors silkscreen box needs to be populated according to the desired settings (R20–R22 and R26–R28).

This setup is shown in Figure 3-7.

Table 3-4 shows the user-adjustable resistor divider settings when using the MCT8315ZH or MCT8315ZT. R20–R22 resistors connect to AVDD and R26–R28 resistors connect to AGND. The default resistor divider configurations are in bold.
