iC-NQ, iC-NQC EVAL NQ6DEVALUATION BOARD DESCRIPTION
Rev A3, Page 3/10
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The NQ6D evaluation board is equipped with the iC-NQ/iC-NQC Interpolator IC. The board features two sub-D
9 pole BiSS plugs to support the cascading of multiple boards. iC-NQ/iC-NQC GUI software can be used to
access the board from a Windows PC what needs the MB3U respectively MB4U adapter.

EVALUATION SOFTWARE
iC-NQ(C) software for PCs running on Windows operating systems as well as the required USB and/or LPT driver
are available as a ZIP file. iC-Haus software built with LabVIEW™requires the installation of the LabVIEW™Run-
Time Engine (RTE). The RTE must be installed only once, hence there are two download links available.
Software overview online: http://www.ichaus.de/software
Download package without RTE (small size) including RTE (big size)
iC-NQ: http://www.ichaus.de/NQ_gui http://www.ichaus.de/NQ_gui_rte
iC-NQC: http://www.ichaus.de/NQC_gui http://www.ichaus.de/NQC_gui_rte
Features
• Reducing evaluation and design-in time and cost
• Manually setting up parameters of iC-NQ(C)
• Saving parameter configuration into EEPROM
• Saving parameter configuration to HEX files
• Loading predefined configurations from HEX files
• Reading and displaying of sensor data
Installation
After unzipping the iC-NQ(C) software package NQ(C)1SO_gui_xx resp. NQ(C)1SO_gui_xxrte, the following
files are located in the selected working directory.
xx is a placeholder for revisions
→ Subfolder NQ(C)1SO_gui_xx including the executable setup.exe which starts the installation routine.
→ Driver packages for USB, LPT and/or other adapter devices.
→ Evaluation board description.
Note: Administrator rights are required to run installations.
1. To access the iC-NQ(C) evaluation board, interface adapter drivers for USB, LPT and/or other adapter de-
vices need to be installed. Before connecting the adapter to your PC the driver installation must be completed
successfully.
→ Execute the USB_xx.exe and/or LPT_xx.exe installation package and follow the on-screen instructions. This
can take a few minutes.
1.1 When using an iC-Haus USB adapter, it must be connected to the PC after the driver installation, to complete
the whole driver installation procedure.
2. Install the evaluation software NQ(C)1SO by executing the setup.exe located in the subfolder
NQ(C)1SO_gui_xx.
→ Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the installation.
3. After installation the executable NQ(C)1SO_gui_xx.exe will be available in the selected working directory.
Figures 5 and 6 show a screenshot of the evaluation software.

Function Description
The iC-NQ(C) evaluation software starts in No Hardware mode (Interface disconnected). For a detailed de-
scription of the parameter settings please refer to iC-NQ(C)’s data sheet. When moving the mouse cursor to
a parameter input box, a tooltip is displayed identifying the corresponding parameter name as described in the
specification.
The software is divided into five sections.
• Menu
• Header
• Sensor
• Parameter
• Status
1 Menu Section
Button Description
<File> Save File Saves the configuration to a file, Intel HEX file format (*.hex).
Load File Loads the configuration to the IC, Intel HEX file format (*.hex).
Save BiSS Master Config Saves a *.cfg file with the current BiSS master configuration (for iC-
MB3 only)
Exit Quits the software.
<Interface> BiSS Setup Opens a window for BiSS master clock configuration.
Connect & Read Checked: connects the PC adapter and reads the IC registers.
Unchecked: connects the PC adapter without reading the IC
registers.
No Hardware Switches to No Hardware mode to reset the communication between
the PC and the adapter.
iC-Interface ↔ LPT (MB3A) for use with PC-LPT adapter MB3A ...
iC-Interface ↔ USB (MB3U) for use with PC-USB adapter MB3U resp. MB3U-I2C ...
iC-Interface ↔ USB (MB4U) for use with PC-USB adapter MB4U (supported by iC-NQC GUI only) ...
...enables communication between the PC and the iC-NQ(C) and
reads all parameters from the iC to the evaluation software.

3 Sensor Section Reading and displaying of sensor data.
Button Description
<Sensor> Read Sensor Reads one data frame from iC-NQ(C).
Output Displays sensor data in decimal, HEX or binary format.
Stop on Error Stops reading sensor data if an error occurs.
Continuous Read Continuously reads data frames.
Data Display Enables a window to visualize sensor data.
Save to File This function works in different ways, depending on the adapter
used.
MB3U: Saves to file while reading sensor data.
MB4U: Reads the amount of cycles defined by Cycle Count and
writes the array of data to the file afterwards. While reading the
amount of cycles the software is not responding to user interaction.
Cycle Count Only available when using adapter MB4U. Defines the amount of
BiSS Frames (cycles) to read.
4 Parameter Section Reading and writing Parameter configuration.
Button Description
<Tabs> Signal Conditioning see iC-NQ(C) datasheet
Interpolator Setup see iC-NQ(C) datasheet
Interface Setup see iC-NQ(C) datasheet
HEX Editor This tab is a different view of the IC’s register content in HEX for-
