8. Clock Output Circuits (OUTx/OUTxB)
Each of the 8 outputs (4 differential pairs) is AC coupled to its respective SMA connector. The output clock
termination circuit is shown in Figure 5. The output signal has no DC bias. If DC coupling is required, the AC
coupling capacitors can be replaced with a resistor of appropriate value. The Si5344-EVB provides pads for
optional output termination resistors and/or low frequency capacitors.
Note:
Components with schematic “NI” designation are not normally populated on the Si5344-EVB and provide locations on
the PCB for optional DC/AC terminations by the end user.
