DS125DF1610EVM

Hardware Overview
The DS125DF1610 evaluation board can be powered from a 3.3 V or 2.5 V power supply via banana
cables. There are 4 quads each with 4 channels for a total of 16 channels. Channels 8 – 11 are connected
via SMA connectors. All other channels require MXP connectors that are sold separately and not included
when purchasing the evaluation module. An external reference clock can be applied to speed up the lock
process, but is not required. A 25 MHz, 125 MHz, or 312.5 MHz reference clock can be applied with the 2
former frequencies allowing a single-ended input (312.5 MHz must be differential). Refer to the datasheet
for additional details. The DS125DF1610EVM as shown in
Figure 1
is configured with default jumper
settings. For a description of each jumpers function, refer to
Table 1
below. Note that the jumper settings
are not in numerical order, but instead are based on their location as you move clockwise around the edge
of the board starting from the banana plugs.
