1 Introduction
The 73M1966B Evaluation Kit is a system for 73M1966B customer evaluations. The system is primarily
designed to be used with a standard PCM channel measuring set, such as the Wandel & Goltermann
PCM-4, but can be used as a stand-alone evaluation platform. The kit contains the 73M1966 Demo
Motherboard, the 73M1966B Demo Board, and the Teridian Graphical User Interface (GUI). The
recommended Wandel & Goltermann PCM-4 test set is an automated system that can analyze the
performance of the 73M1966B. The GUI can be used to configure the 73M1966B control registers using
a personal computer and to read its status conditions.
The kit demonstrates functionality and allows evaluation of the 73M1966B performance characteristics via
the PCM channel measuring set, which provides a source of A-law or
µ
-law data that is used for the
analysis of the bi-directional channel.
Figure 1 shows the 73M1966B Demo Board connected on top of the Motherboard. The Motherboard
provides user-friendly connections to the PCM-4 test set, the DC Loop Supply and the personal computer
running the GUI software.
