EV kit jumper JU3 sets the communication protocol to
either RS-232 or RS-485/RS-422. See Table 3 for
configuring jumper JU3. For additional protocol-config-
uration information, refer to the Functional Diagrams
section of the MAX3160E IC data sheet.
EV kit jumper JU4 configures the MAX3160E IC’s RS-485/
RS-422 communication mode to full duplex or half
duplex. To receive RS-485 data, disable the RS-485
outputs by driving the DE485/T2IN PCB pad low. See
Table 4 to configure jumper JU4 for the desired mode
of communication.
The EV kit features jumpers JU5, JU6, JU7, and JU8 to
configure the RS-232 connector J1 as a data terminal
equipment (DTE) or as a data communications equip-
ment (DCE) connector. See Table 5 for configuring the
respective jumpers for DTE or DCE connection mode.

EV kit jumpers JU9 and JU10 configure the RS-485/RS-
422 termination. JU9 sets the input termination with
resistor R6. JU10 sets the output termination with resistor
R5. See Table 6 for the RS-485/RS-422 termination
options.
The MAX3160E EV kit features PCB pads for interfacing
with logic signals. PCB pads and a DB9 connector (J1)
are available to interface with an RS-232/RS-485/RS-422
serial line. See Figures 1 or 2 for RS-232 or RS-485/
RS-422 transceiver functional modes.
The RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 input range is ±25V and
the output range is ±5V.
