Figure 25. Power supply schematic
A 3.3 V LDO provides power to I
2
C MUX and I
2
C pull-up resistors. As previously
mentioned, the I
2
C MUX is not populated. The 3.3 V power supplies only the I
2
C pull-
up resistors. The 3.3 V LDO is not populated, and uses 3.3 V from the PCIe gold finger
(close J16 pin 2-3).

3 LPCUSBSIO module
To demonstrate the programmability of PTN3944 through the I
2
C interface, use the
LPCUSBSIO module with PTN3944 PCIe AIC. The main function of the LPCUSBSIO
module is to provide a USB-to-I
2
C bridge. Using a USB2 interface, the bridge allows
users to connect the module to a PC and exercise the I
2
C interface with each PTN3944
on the AIC. A GUI monitors and/or configures the settings for each PTN3944.
