The evaluation board is designed to help the customer evaluate the 5P35023 device, the latest addition to the family of programmable devices in IDT's Timing portfolio. When the board is connected to a PC running IDT Timing Commander™ software through a USB, the device can be configured and programmed to generate different combinations of frequencies.
This crystal is used as a reference source for the clock signal. USB Connector Connect this USB to your PC to run IDT Timing Commander. This can be a differential pair, or two single-ended outputs. By default, Differential Output #2 DIFF_T2/C2 it’s an LPHCSL differential output.

Follow the “Getting Started Steps” in Timing Commander An I C connection is established between GUI software software. and VersaClock 3S device. Using the Timing Commander GUI, start a new settings Configure the Timing Commander software for the file, or open a pre-optimized file.
® VersaClock 3S - 5P35023 Evaluation Board User Manual Signal Termination Options Termination options for differential output 1–2 in the evaluation board are displayed in Figure 9. The termination circuits are designed to optionally terminate the output clocks in LVPECL, LVDS, LVCMOS and HCSL signal types by populating (or not-populating) some resistors.
Note: **The differential output is applicable to LPHCSL which is the default configuration of the board. *The single-ended output is applicable to LVCMOS which is the default configuration of the board. Contact IDT if user wants to change termination configuration to support other output signal types. Ordering Information Table 12.
