Introduction
Overview
The LMK05318EVM is an evaluation module for the LMK05318 Network Clock Generator and
Synchronizer. The EVM can be used for device evaluation, compliance testing, and system prototyping.
The LMK05318 integrates two Analog PLLs (APLL) and one Digital PLL (DPLL) with programmable loop
bandwidth. The EVM includes SMA connectors for clock inputs, oscillator inputs, and clock outputs to
interface the device with 50-
Ω
test equipment. The onboard XO allows the LMK05318 to be evaluated in
free-running, locked, or holdover mode of operation. The EVM can be configured through the onboard
USB microcontroller (MCU) interface using a PC with TI's TICS Pro software graphical user interface
(GUI). TICS Pro can be used to program the LMK05318 registers and on-chip EEPROM, which enables a
custom clock configuration on power up.
