FEATURES
On-board LDO voltage regulator for 2.5 V/3.3 V device under
test (DUT) supply
LDO can be bypassed to allow for an external supply
AC-coupled differential SMA connectors
SMA connectors for
2 differential input clocks
8 analog differential outputs
Jumpers to enable/disable the LDO voltage regulator
Clip on access points for power/ground
Jumper for input clock selection
Matched RF differential traces
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This user guide describes the two evaluation boards for
evaluating the
fully differential output buffer.
Both evaluation boards, EV1HMC6832ALP5L and
EV2HMC6832ALP5L, allow access to all
input/outputs via SMAs.
The EV1HMC6832ALP5L is configured for the LVPECL
version of the product whereas the EV2HMC6832ALP5L is
configured for LVDS. Each board has an on-board low dropout
(LDO) regulator for 2.5 V/3.3 V operation that can be disabled
to use an external supply. Each board has matched RF
differential traces for testing output to output channel skew.
For full specifications on the
, see the product data
sheet, which should be consulted in conjunction with this user
guide when working with the evaluation board. The evaluation
board schematics and the
data sheet are available on
the
product page.
