General Description

This user guide describes how to set up and operate the LMK00308 evaluation module (EVM). The
LMK00308 is a 3-GHz, 8-output differential clock buffer intended for high frequency, low additive jitter clock
distribution and level translation. The EVM allows the user to verify the functionality and performance
specifications of the device. Refer to the LMK00308 datasheet for the functional description and
specifications.

Features

Low-noise clock fan-out via two banks of four differential outputs and one LVCMOS output
Selectable differential output type (LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, or Hi-Z)
3:1 input multiplexer with two universal input buffers and one crystal oscillator interface
DIP switch control of device configuration
3.3 V core and 3 independent 3.3 V/2.5 V output supplies (one per output bank) using external supply
inputs or optional LP3878-ADJ LDO or LMZ10500 switching regulator on board
AC- or DC-coupled input & output interface with low-skew, controlled-impedance traces and edge SMA
connectors

    Note: When the LMZ10500 switcher is used to power the DUT and an ultra-low-noise clock source is used, the higher output noise voltage of the switcher (compared to the LP3878-ADJ) can cause an slight increase LMK00308EVM User’s Guide March 2012...
  • Page 7: Clock Inputs

    To configure a single-ended clock input on OSCin, remove R34 and R37 to disconnect the crystal. Install 0.1 uF on C24 to provide an AC-coupled path from the SMA input labeled OSCin to the device input, which has internal biasing. Note that the OSCin path includes a 51-ohm termination on R42.

  • Page 8: Clock Outputs

    When an output bank is configured for LVPECL and its Vcco supply is 2.5 V, it is suggested to replace the 160-ohm -termination resistor to ground with a lower value, such as 91 ohms, to maintain proper DC bias current on each output. LMK00308EVM User’s Guide March 2012...
