Overview

The CXPI Click Board™ is a compact add-on board that contains a transceiver that supports the next-generation automotive communication protocol. This board features the BD41000AFJ-C, a transceiver for the CXPI (Clock Extension Peripheral Interface) communication from Rohm Semiconductor. It operates from 7V to 18V external power supply, features easy switching between Master or Slave Mode, arbitration function that stops the data output upon detection of BUS data collision, and fail-safe functions that suspend the output data upon detection of under-voltage or temperature abnormality. This Click Board™ is suitable for use in body control applications, including steering switch, AC, and instrument panel systems.

The CXPI Click Board™ is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click Board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.

How Does The CXPI Click Board™ Work?

The CXPI Click Board™ is based on the BD41000AFJ-C, a transceiver for the Clock Extension Peripheral Interface (CXPI) communication from Rohm Semiconductor. The BD41000FJ-C is compliant with the CXPI standard established by JSAE (Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan), enabling highly responsive, reliable multiplex communication even in HMI systems, reducing vehicle weight and contributing to greater fuel efficiency. The BD41000AFJ-C operates from 7V to 18V external power supply labeled as BAT, and has several operating modes each controlled by the CS pin of the mikroBUS™, BUS pin, and UART TX pin.

CXPI Click Board™

It has built-in Power-OFF, Through, RX Through other than CODEC Mode for power saving control. Power-OFF Mode reduces power consumption by not supplying power to any circuits other than necessary ones for Wake-Up pulse detection (BUS) and Wake-Up input detection (TX). Through Mode does not process Coding/Decoding. It only drives signals from UART TX to BUS and from BUS to UART RX directly. RX Through Mode reverses RX output at each rising edge of BUS. CODEC Mode is the mode of CXPI communication. CS pin of the mikroBUS™ socket labeled as EN should be set high for the chip to enter CODEC Mode.

The BD41000AFJ-C can achieve a quiescent current of 3uA (typ.), ensuring suitability with automotive applications. As a result, the battery load is minimized during non-operation, contributing to higher energy savings. Also, high ESD resistance (±8kV) makes it possible to achieve low-power, high-reliability CXPI communication. Besides, it has built-in fail-safe functions that suspend the output data upon detection of under-voltage or temperature abnormality.

The CXPI Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the UART interface with a transmission speed range from 5kbps to 20kbps, and commonly used UART RX and TX pins for the data transfer. Also, it has three jumpers that allow the selection of CXPI transmitter mode on the MS pin of the BD41000AFJ-C to its appropriate position marked as Master or Slave. This can be performed by using the SMD jumpers labeled as MODE. Note that all the jumpers must be placed to the same side, or else the Click board™ may become unresponsive.

The CXPI Click Board™ is designed to be operated with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels that can be selected via VCC SEL jumper. This allows for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the UART communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library that contains easy to use functions and an example code that can be used as a reference for further development.
