Page 7: About This Document
1 About this Document This document describes the use of the M88 Evaluation Kit. Its purpose is to help a user to set up the board electrically and mechanically and how to communicate to it. It’s not a complete guide for all functionality provided by the M88 module it’s carrying. -
Page 8: Before You Begin
The board can also be powered by a PoE switch if connected to Port 1. This will supply adequate power in most cases except for when a large OCXO is used on an add-on board. The M88 Evaluation Kit has onboard regulators to provide all necessary voltages for the components on the M88 Evaluation Kit including the M88. -
