1 Introduction
Overview
The LMK5B33216EVM is an evaluation module for the LMK5B33216 Network Clock Generator and
Synchronizer. The EVM can be used for device evaluation, compliance testing, and system prototyping. The
LMK5B33216 integrates three Analog PLLs (APLL) and three Digital PLLs (DPLL) with programmable loop
bandwidth. The EVM includes SMA connectors for clock inputs, optional off-board APLL reference input, and
clock outputs to interface the device with 50-Ω test equipment. The onboard TCXO allows the LMK5B33216 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 LMK5B33216 registers.
