_______________Detailed Description
The MAX3872/MAX3874 EV Kit is a fully assembled and factory tested demonstration board that enables testing of all MAX3872 and MAX3874 functions.
Test Equipment Required
? +3.3V power supply with 200mA current capability ? Signal-source, 2.7Gbps minimum capability ? Jitter analyzer capable of 2.7Gbps performance ?
Oscilloscope with at least 3GHz performance
Test Equipment Interface
The serial inputs (SDI±, SLBI±) and serial outputs (SDO±, SCLKO±) have on-board AC-coupling capacitors to allow direct connection to 50? test equipment. The EV kit also has pads on the serial data and clock outputs (SDO±, SCLKO±) to allow on-board termination for coupling to high-impedance oscilloscopes.
Quick Start (MAX3872 & MAX3874)
This procedure will set up the evaluation board for 2.48832Gbps normal operation mode, with input threshold adjust disabled.
1) Place a shunt across pins 2 (SIS) and 3 (GND) of
J13.
2) Place a shunt across pins 1 (VCC) and 2 (LREF)
of J14.
3) Place a shunt across pins 2 and 3 of J15.
4) Place a shunt across pins 2 (RS1) and 3 (GND) of
J17.
5) Place a shunt across pins 2 (RS2) and 3 (GND) of
J18.
6) Place a shunt across pins 2 (RATESET) and 3
(GND) of J19.
7) Place a shunt across pins 1 (VCC) and 2 (VCTRL)
of J9.
8) Remove the shunt from J10.
9) Place a shunt across pins 2 (FREFSET) and 3
(GND) of J12.
10) Connect a 2.48832Gbps PRBS NRZ signal to the
serial data inputs (SDI±) with 50? cables. Leave the SLBI ± inputs unconnected.
11) Connect the serial data and clock outputs (SDO±,
SCLKO±) to a 50? high-speed oscilloscope.Terminate any unused outputs with 50? to GND.12) Connect +3.3V to J20 (VCC) and ground to J21
(GND).
Jitter analysis and product performance can also be observed by appropriately interfacing the EV kit with a bit-error-rate tester (BERT) and a jitter analyzer.
Operational Modes
The MAX3872/MAX3874 has three modes of operation: normal, system loopback, and clock holdover. The three operational modes are programmed by connecting the appropriate pins of JU13 (SIS) and JU14 (LREF). See Table 1. Normal operation mode requires a serial data stream at the SDI ± inputs, system loopback mode requires a serial data stream at the SLBI ± inputs, and clock holdover mode requires a reference clock signal at the SLBI ±inputs.
Normal and System Normal and System Loopback Settings Loopback Settings
Three jumpers (RS1, RS2, RATESET) are available for setting the SDI ± or SLBI ± inputs to receive the appropriate data rate (Table 2). The FREFSET pin can be set high or low while in normal or system loopback mode.
Clock Frequencies in Holdover Mode
Set the incoming reference clock frequency and outgoing serial clock frequency by setting RS1, RS2,RATESET, and FREFSET appropriately. See Table 3.
Auto Switch to Clock Holdover Mode
To switch from normal mode to clock holdover mode automatically when there are no data transitions applied to the SDI ± inputs connect LOL directly to LREF by placing a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of J15.
Vertical Threshold Adjustment
To compensate for optical noise presented on the data logic high caused by EDFAs in a WDM transmission system, an external analog control input is provided for adjusting the data decision threshold to an optimum level.
To enable data decision threshold adjustment, place a shunt across pins 2 and 3 of J9 and shunt pins 1 and 2of J10. Set the decision threshold by adjusting the potentiometer R8. The center point for the decision threshold is 1.2V at the VCTRL pin.
