The figures below illustrate the cables included in the DK-114N-1.
Figures 4-7: From left to right: Power supply to driver board cable, Signal cable, Driver board to LED cable, Thermistor cable
Figure 6 depicts two types of driver board to LED cables: the shorter cable (with either 8 - or 10- pins on the LED connector) on the left,
used with LEDs such as PT39, PT40, CBT-40 and PT54, and the longer cable with the two spade connectors on the right, used with LEDs
such as the CBT-90, PT-120 and CBT-120. There are five different variants of the shorter driver board to LED cable : 960011 to be used with
PT39, PT54 and CBT-40; 960043 to be used with PT40-RA; 960044 to be used with PT40-G/B; 960045 to be used with PT54-TE-RA and 960046
to be used with PT54-TE-G/B. These five cables have labels that contain the cable number and the LEDs to which they connect--users must
match the LED they use to the appropriate cable since connecting an incorrect cable can damage the LED. For optimum performance, and
to avoid ringing when pulsing the LEDs, increasing the length of the driver board to LED cable is not recommended.
2.3 Thermal Interface Material (TIM) and Mounting Hardware
The development kit includes precut sheets of eGraf HiTherm 1205, a high performance thermal interface material, and M2x5, M2.5x6
screws required for mounting the LEDs.

3. User Instructions
The following sections explain the set-up and operation of the DK-114N-1 Development Kit. Additional lab equipment such as a 12 V
laboratory power supply, an oscilloscope, a waveform generator, a multimeter and a photodetector are required to power and use the
DK-114N-1. Table 1 lists a recommended model for the equipment and Appendix D provides an additional list of compatible power
supplies. The use of a table equipped with ESD protection is recommended.
