Introduction Welcome to the Bt8960 Evaluation System from Brooktree Corporation. You can use the Bt8960 Evaluation System to evaluate the performance of the Bt8960 device, to develop software for your Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) system, and for many other applications. Brooktree has created this development platform to help its customers get their communication system products to market as quickly as possible.
The Bt8960EVM has been designed to operate at a data rate of 288 Kbits per second. It can be modified to run at other data rates supported by the Bt8960 device. Please see the Bt8960 datasheet or the Interconnection Information application note for more information on how to modify the line card for different data rates.

EVM will go into the idle state. If both line cards pass self-test, the EVM will automatically try to startup on the loop connected between the line terminals on the EVM Conexant 100188B Conexant Proprietary and Confidential...
NOTE: ETSI ISDN and CSA loops. The model should be chosen according to the application and data rate. Brooktree used the DLS 200 ISDN ANSI and ETSI models to evaluate the 288 kbps loop performance of the Bt8960. Conexant 100188B...
See the “Power Supply/Line Card Configuration Interface (J3)” section for more details on this interface. Mounting Plate The mounting plate simply provides a mounting surface for the line cards and power supply assembly. Conexant 100188B Conexant Proprietary and Confidential...
J3 connector and given to jumper J12 by removing the 0 ohm resistor, R44, and installing jumper J12. Note that the 8032 microprocessor PORT1B7 signal (pin 9) contains an internal pull-up resistor that is connected to J3-3 so that no external pull-up resistor is required.

Four BNC connectors are provided to connect the raw digital data and clocks to be transmitted and received over the line to the Bt8960. These connectors are buffered through an HCT244 buffer to protect the Bt8960 from improper connections and to provide extra drive strength for coax cables.
A 64 Kbyte PROM (27C512) provides program memory to the 80C32. The 80C32 contains 256 bytes of internal RAM. No external RAM is provided. The upper address line of the 80C32 processor (ADDR15) is used as chip select for the Bt8960 device. The memory is mapped according to...
Bt8960 device. Voltage bypass and compensation capacitors are located as close to their associated devices as possible. In addition, capacitors C5 and C6 are located as close to the Bt8960 device as possible to minimize noise at the Bt8960 analog inputs.
