• Deserializers Evaluation Board with Jumpers
• Flex cable
4. Evaluation Board Specification
4.1 Board Default Configuration
The evaluation board is shipped from the factory as follows:
• The boards are connected and oriented so that writing may be read, the left unit is a serializer,
and the right board is a deserializer.
• VDDS/VDDA are connected between serializer and deserializer through the flex.
• VDDP is connected between serializer and deserializer through the flex.
• There is no connection between VDDP and VDDS/VDDA.
• Jumpers 7+8 (JP7 + JP8) are installed to activate power indicator LEDs.
Upon board receipt, the user should verify that the flex is well connected into each socket. Table 1 lists
appropriate jumper settings. See device data sheets for description of device connections.

REFCLOCK Frequency Range
Selection (CKREF)
These signals must be connected to either a HIGH
or LOW condition dependent upon the desired
frequency range of operation. See respective
datasheet.
S1, S2 (FIN24)
Unidirectional Setting for Bits
21:24
Sets DP[21:24] as fixed inputs, outputs or inputs
and outputs. See respective datasheets.
DIRI
Serializer/Deserializer Control
Configuration the µSerDes as a serialized or
deserializer. Can be tied HIGH, LOW, or driven.
