Channel Link Transmitter Board Description:
J1 (60 position) accepts 28 bit LVTTL/LVCMOS data, clock and also the PD* control
signal.
The Channel Link Transmitter board is powered externally. For the transmitter to be
operational, the Power Down pin must be set HIGH with a jumper.
The 3M MDR connector (J2) provides the interface for LVDS signals for the
Receiver board.
