DS125DF111EVM Evaluation Board Overview The Texas Instruments DS125DF111EVM evaluation module provides a high bandwidth platform with an SMA interface to evaluate the DS125DF111 dual channel retimer with integrated signal conditioning. The DS125DF111 includes an input Continuous-Time Linear Equalizer (CTLE), Clock and Data Recovery (CDR), and transmit driver on each channel.
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well as how to properly connect, set up, and use the DS125DF111EVM. The DS125DF111EVM can be used in three different modes: 1. Pin Control Mode – provides access to selected signal integrity settings.
10. J161 – LOCK: With shunt installed, LOCK LED will light Green when DS125DF111 CDR is in the locked state 5.1.2 VOD and De-Emphasis The DS125DF111EVM uses pin strapping to define the VOD and DE level of the outputs. These are set by the following jumpers on the DS125DF111EVM: • VODA – J9 / J91 •...
There are no pin control settings for the input equalization. The DS125DF111 input equalization will automatically adapt for divide ratios 1 and 2. For divide ratios 4 and 8, a pre-set equalization level is used. 5.1.4 Loopback J6 and J61 control the DS125DF111EVM loopback function according to Table Table 4. DS125DF111 Loopback Control Loopback...
5.2.2 Using SigCon Architect SigCon Architect can be used to program the DS125DF111EVM. In order to use SigCon Architect for SMBus Slave Mode access control, a DPS-DONGLE-EVM (see SNLU184) or USB2ANY equivalent adapter board must be used. This adapter board serves as an interface board to allow SMBus communication between the PC and the DS125DF111 retimer.
DS125DF111EVM. The EVM uses simple 100 mil headers to control the output signal integrity functions. The DS125DF111EVM is very compact and low power. The board traces have been designed for connection to standard 50 Ω test equipment and cables.
