  • Page 4: Installing The Software

    LMH1983 Evaluation Kit Users Guide Installing the software: The evaluation kit contains a CD which has the control software on it. Running the program on the CD will install the software on your computer. Apply power to the Evaluation Board, and then attach a USB cable between the computer and the board.

  • Page 7 The computer will warn you that the software has not passed Windows Logo Testing. Go ahead and Continue Anyway. The driver for the LMH1983 evaluation board will now be installed, and you can start the ALP software. When you start the Analog LaunchPAD software, it should recognize the evaluation board and the screen will look like the figure below.
  • Page 8 There are several panels in the GUI - the first is the main control panel and allows for basic control over the board. Also very useful is the Registers tab, which will allow for detailed manipulation of the various registers in the LMH1983. Page 8 of 25...
  • Page 9 C address select jumper JP9 (3-way) can be configured as follows to select one of the three I C slave addresses offered by the LMH1983. The default for the board, and for the ALP software is address ‘66h which corresponds to no jumper installed.
  • Page 10 The GUI will display what format is being detected under the PLL1 For a comprehensive list of formats that can be detected, please refer to the LMH1983 datasheet. To determine format, the device measures the period of the Hsync input by counting 27MHz clock pulses over several Hsync periods.

  • Page 12: Loop Filter

    The external loop filter and 27 MHz VCXO are essential to the performance of PLL1, which dominates the overall loop response of the LMH1983. The loop response of PLL1 is influenced by the external loop components and can be characterized by its loop bandwidth and damping factor.
  • Page 13 The VCXO input control voltage input can be measured at TP29 (VC_BUF). Note that when the LMH1983 is operating in free run mode, the VC_LPF output set by the user-defined free run voltage control register may be limited by the output voltage range of the LMP7711, as it is not a rail-to-rail op amp.
  • Page 14 27 MHz via the SMA clock input, J3. Either one of the options can be used as long as it’s not being used to drive the Hin reference of the LMH1983. To make use of this option, populate R21 and R28, then to use the on board oscillator, enable it by removing the jumper on JP5, and to use the external SMA, disable the oscillator with a jumper on JP5 and provide the reference on J3.
