Add-on boards

Oscillator board
Silicon Labs
provides optional oscillator board carrying a high-quality oscillator. To select the oscillator
on the add-on board as reference source, move jumper P307 to pin 5-6. On the add-on board, allow for
voltage control of the oscillator by moving the jumper P102 on the add-on board to pin 2-3.
Figure 11. Oscillator add-on board
If voltage control is used, DCO control needs to be turned off for DSPLL A and the voltage control range
needs to be set for the mounted oscillator. This is done using the command
ptp2 config -c 000 -v
<value>
before the PTP engine is started.

GNSS board
Silicon Labs
provides an optional GNSS board for satellite-based reference time. The board comes
with an antenna connector cable.

Plug the GNSS board into connector P504 and a patch antenna to the antenna connector cable. Make
sure the antenna has a clear view of the sky.
