1.1
Input and Output Clocks
There are seven SMB connectors at the left of the board labeled IC3, IC4, IC7, IC8, and SYNC1–SYNC3 that
provide a single-end ed clock input to t he DS 3102. All single-ende d cloc k inputs are connec ted to t he DS3102 with
a 50Ω characteristic im pedance trace and term inated with 50Ω at the device (SYNC1–SYNC3 require a jumper in
the TERM position to terminate due to dual functionality). Eight additional SMB connectors labeled IC1P, IC1N,
IC2P, IC2N, IC 5P, IC5N, IC6P, and IC6N provide differential clock inputs to the DS3102. These differential inputs
have 50Ω trace impedance, test points, and 50Ω termination at the device (i.e., 100Ω differential).
On the other side of the PCB are 12 SMB clock output connectors label ed OC1–OC 5, OC1B–OC5B, FSYNC, and
MFSYNC. All single-ended clock outputs are buffered at the DS3102 and connected to the SMB connector via a
50Ω characteristic impedance trace. Cables attached to the single-ended output connectors must have 50Ω
termination and characteristic impedance for proper operation. Eight additional SMB connectors labeled OC4P,
OC4N, OC5P, OC5N, OC6P, OC6N, OC7P, and OC7N provide connections to the differential outputs from the
DS3102.
1.2
Jumpers, Headers, and Switch Settings
Jumpers JMP9–JMP12 and JMP16 (lower right of board) provide the means to pull up or pull down the TEST,
SRFAIL, LOCK, SRCSW, and SONSDH pins of the DS3102. (Note that som e of these jumpers only make sense
for other DS310x products where the pin has a different function.) Labels specify which position is used to pull each
pin to a 1 or a 0 (if jumper is not installed, pin is left to float to accommodate a pin’s output function). Jumpers
JMP1–JMP4 (middle right of board) provide access to the SYNC1–SYNC3 and IC9 pins of the DS3102. Labels
specify the position to install the jumper to pull the pin up (signified by “1”) or pull it down through a 50Ω resistor
(signified by “TERM\0”). The 50Ω resistor is used as a termination resistor when the pin is used as a input clock
signal. Jumper JMP6 (labeled VDDIOB) is used to set the VDDIOB supply voltage for output clock pins OC1B–
OC5B. The options are labeled for 2.5V or 3.3V. Jumpers JMP62 and JMP63 select the computer interface to be
USB or RS-232. Jum per JMP5 (upp er-left) selects whether the board shoul d be powered f rom the US B connector
or from the power-supply jacks (J3 or J13/J19). LEDs DS1–DS4 (upper-left) indicate the labeled power supply is
operational. LED DS16 (upper-right) indicates that the microprocessor is operational. LEDs DS5, DS6, and DS10
(lower middle) indicate the status of the SRFAIL, LOCK, and INTREQ pins, respectively. Switch SW1 is used to
select a sq uaring circu it to accomm odate a sinusoida l input on IC3. H eader J51 p rovides access to the JTAG por t
of the DS3102. Test points are provided for differential inputs and outputs, the watchdog timer pin, SPI port pins,
and ground plane connection.
1.3
Microcontroller
The DS87C520 microcontroller has factory-installed firmware in on-chip nonvolatile memory. This firmware
translates memory access requests from the RS-232 serial port or USB port into register accesses on the D3102.
W hen the m ic roc ontr oller s t arts up it t ur ns on DS 16 to i ndicate that t he c o ntr o ller i s working corr ectly. A pus h butto n
switch labeled RESET near the RS-232 connector resets the microcontroller as well as the DS3102.
1.4
Power-Supply Connectors
A 5V lab po wer suppl y can be conn ected acros s the red ( J13) and bl ack (J19) banana jack s. Optional ly, the board
can be p owered f rom the USB conn ector b y placin g jum per JMP5 i n the US B pos ition. T he 5V inp ut from either of
these sources is then regulated to 3.3V, 2.5V, and 1.8V, and distributed to board components.
Note that the bo ard cannot be USB p owered through some USB hubs. Bef ore trying to power the bo ard through a
USB hub, check the voltage at JMP5 to ensure the board is getting 5V from the hub.
