Differential SMA MRCC Pin Inputs
Callout 21,
The KC724 board provides two pairs of differential SMA transceiver clock inputs that can
be used for connecting to an external function generator. The FPGA MRCC pins are
connected to the SMA connectors as shown in

SuperClock-2 Module
Callout 22,
The SuperClock-2 module connects to the clock module interface connector (J82) and
provides a programmable, low-noise and low-jitter clock source for the KC724 board. The
clock module maps to FPGA I/O by way of 24 control pins, 3 LVDS pairs, 1 regional clock
pair, and 1 reset pin.
interface. The KC724 board also supplies UTIL_5V0, UTIL_3V3, UTIL_2V5 and VCCO_HR
input power to the clock module interface.
