Clock Inputs
The SiT6503EB has eight inputs (4 differential pairs) with SMA connectors (IN0_P, IN0_N, IN1_P, IN1_N,
IN2_P, IN2_N, IN3_P, IN3_N) for receiving external clock signals. All input clocks are ac-coupled and

below. This represents four differential input clock pairs. Single-
ended clocks can be used by driving the ‘P’ side of the differential pair with the ‘N’ input floating.

Clock Outputs
When shipped from factory, each of the twenty output drivers (10 differential pairs) is ac-coupled to its
respective SMA connector – this is the default configuration. The output clock termination circuit is
shown in
below. If dc coupling is required, the corresponding 0.1 uF ac coupling capacitor can
be replaced with a zero
