Figure 5

 : Two boxed connectors for connecting the Level

Shifter Board to one or more target buses. 

These two boxed connectors have an almost identical pinout to the 

ADAPTER

 and 

ANALYZER

 connector. The only di

erence is that the 5.0 V pins will have the target's

voltage level instead.

The pinout of the two connectors is described in Figure 6.

Target side of the Level Shifter Board. 

3.3 EXT 3.3V and EXT TGT

All the bus and power signals on the board are also available through two 16-pin
headers on the board (Figure 7}. The 

EXT 3.3 V

 connector provides the bus signals at

the standard signaling levels employed by Total Phases I C, SPI, and MDIO products.
The 

EXT TGT

 connector provides the bus and power signals of the downstream device

and will be at the voltage level de

ned by the user. All connections are labeled for the

user's convenience.
