EthernetBlaster II Hardware Connections
The EthernetBlaster II cable connects to an Ethernet cable with an RJ45 jack to a
10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet hub/switch (using a straight 8-wire data cable) or a
10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port of a PC (using a straight 8-wire or a crossover data
cable). Depending on your connection (remote or direct), data is downloaded through
the EthernetBlaster II communications cable to the circuit board using the connections
described in this section.
Voltage Requirements
You must connect the EthernetBlaster II V
CC(TARGET)
pin to a specific voltage for the
device being programmed. Connect pull-up resistors to the same power supply as the
EthernetBlaster II V
CC(TARGET).
Table 3–1 lists the EthernetBlaster II V
CC
voltage
requirements.
