VersaClock®3S - 5P35021 Evaluation Board

Introduction

The evaluation board is designed to help the customer evaluate the 5P35021, the latest addition to the family of programmable

devices in IDT's Timing portfolio. When the board is connected to a PC running IDT Timing Commander™ Software through

USB, the device can be configured and programmed to generate different combinations of frequencies.

Board Overview

Use Figure 1 and Table 1 to identify: power supply jacks, USB connector, input and output frequency SMAconnectors.

Board Power Supply

Power Supply Options

The core voltage includes a digital voltage VDD33 and an analog voltage VDDA. Both core voltages can be powered by an

external bench power supply or by USB.

•Bench Power Supply – To supply VDD33 with a bench power supply, connect power to J17. To supply VDDA with a bench

power supply, connect power to J18. At the same time, place the jumpers as shown in Figure 2B.

•USB Power Supply – When the board is connected to a PC through a USB cable, on-board voltage regulators will generate

a 3.3V for the device. In this case, place the jumper as shown in Figure 2A. See JP5 jumper position for the on-board voltage

regulators in the following figure. USB power source is recommended because it's readily available right from your laptop.

Figure 2. Jumping to the Pin configuration as shown (Figure 2A.) will select power source from on-board

voltage regulators powered by USB; Jumping to the Pin configuration as shown (Figure 2B.) will

select the bench power supply

Output Clock Voltages

Like VDDAand VDD33 having two sources, each output voltage is also provided with two sources to choose from: bench power

supply or powered from USB. The selection is made by a 4-way header as shown in Figure 3 below.

The jumper can be used to select a voltage for E1, E2, E3, E4, and E5 respectively. The on-board voltage regulators powered

by USB are 1.8V, 2.5V and 3.3V; VDDOJ is from bench power supply connecting to JP17 and JP18. Each output voltage can

be individually selected. Use the label on the evaluation board: E1 for VDDDIFF1, E2 for VDDSE1, E3 for VDDDIFF2, E4 for

VDDSE2 and E5 for VDDSE3. The JP6 on the EVB needs to be in the default position as supplied by the manufacturer.

Note: Connect the USB to the board when using external power supply

Connecting the Board

The board is connected to a PC through a USB connector for configuring and programming the device, as shown in Figure 4

below. The USB interface will also provide +5V power supply to the board, from which on-board voltage regulators generate

various voltages for the core as well as for each output.

The board can also be powered by a benchpower supply by connectingtwo banana jacks J17, J18 foroutput and core voltages,

respectively. Please see board power supply section for details.

Note: The USB port only supports USB 2.0; USB 3.0 is not supported at this time.

On-Board Crystal

A 25MHz crystal is installed on the board. It is used as a source for reference frequency.

Signal Termination Options

Termination options for Differential Output 1 - 2 in the evaluation board are displayed in Figure 9. The termination circuits are

designed to optionally terminate the output clocks in LVPECL, LVDS, LVCMOS and HCSL signal types by populating (or

not-populating) some resistors. DC or AC coupling of these outputs are also supported.

Table 5 and Table 6, below, tabulates component installations to support LVPECL, HCSL, LVCMOS and LVDS signal types for

OUTPUT1 - 2, respectively. Please note that by doing so, the output signals will be measured and terminated by an oscilloscope

with a 50internal termination.

Table 5: Termination Options for Differential Output 1 (DIFF_CO/TO)

Table 6: Termination Options for Differential Output 2 (DIFF_C1/T1)

As noted, 4-resistor network is not installed in Table 5 and Table 6 because oscilloscope with internal 50termination is utilized

for signal termination and measurement. If an AC-coupled, stand-alone LVPECL output is needed (without oscilloscope

connections), the 4-resistor network needs to be installed accordingly.

Table 7: Termination for Single-ended Output 1 (SE_1)

Table 8: Termination for Differential and Single-ended Input)

Note: ** The differential output is applicable to LPHCSL which is the default configuration of the board.

* The single-ended output is applicable to LVCMOS which is the default configuration of the board.

Contact IDT if user wants to change termination configuration to support other output signal types.
