Evaluation Kit

Overview

This manual covers both the ISL34341 and ISL76321
evaluation kits. These kits enable the user to exercise the
SerDes in a lab environment and to see the high speed and
parallel signals conveniently on an oscilloscope. Contents of
the kit are shown in Figure 1.

USER'S MANUAL
There are slight differences between the ISL34341 and
ISL76321 kits. The ISL76321 uses a Molex cable instead of
Rosenberger which the ILS34341 uses. Unless specifically
mentioned, ISL76321 can be substituted anywhere you see
ISL34341.
