Using the LMX2485E & LMX2487E Evaluation Board

The Texas Instruments LMX2485E-EVM/LMX2487E-EVM helps designers evaluate the operation and
performance of any of the devices in the LMX248x family. Although only two options are offered, the other
members in the family are all pinout compatible and program compatible to one of these existing board
option. They would be expected to have similar performance, just different in the maximum frequency of
operation.
