Functional Description
The 8960 EVM consists of two 8960 line cards, a power supply assembly, and a
mounting plate.
8960 Line Cards
The 8960 line cards are described in detail in the Interface Descriptions
section.
Power Supply
Assembly
The power supply assembly consists of a uni5 volt power supply
and the associated cabling. In addition to pro5 volt power and
ground, the power supply assembly also provides a signal to each 8960
line card which determines if the line card will be configured as a local
unit (HTU-C/LTU), or a remote unit (HTU-R/NTU). The power
connectors to each line card are labeled as C, as in HTU-C, and R, as in
HTU-R, to indicate how the line card it is connected to will be
configured. See the “Power Supply/Line Card Configuration Interface
(J3)” section for more details on this interface.
Mounting Plate
The mounting plate simply provides a mounting surface for the line
cards and power supply assembly.
