  • Page 15: Programmable Clock Generator

    The XTS-FMC card provides a programmable clock generator: CDMC6208. This clock generator provides a variety of frequencies which can have different formats to the FPGA's transceiver bank for different applications as reference clock. The user can modify the output frequency of DMC6208 from the FPGA through the I2C interface.

  • Page 16: Chapter 4 Demonstrations

    The transceiver test code is available in the folder System CD\Demonstrations\TR5\demo_batch. Here are the procedures to perform transceiver channel test: Use the SMA cables to connect the TX ports and the RX ports on the XTS-FMC card to implement the loopback function (See Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2).
  • Page 17 Connect the XTS-FMC card to the FMC D or FMC A connector of the TR5 board. Make sure the FMC connector between the two boards is locked with copper posts and screws (See section 1.3). Figure 4-2 The Connections between the XTS-FMC card and TR5 board Connect your TR5 board to your PC with a mini USB cable.
