A 25-MHz clock is required to drive the PLL of the TVP9900. Some tuner devices have a 4-MHz clock output that can be used as the demodulator clock source. The TVP9900EVM has the option of using a 4-MHz clock input from the tuner as the clock source, or the default setting of using the onboard 25-MHz crystal.
Test Points and Jumpers The TVP9900EVM was designed with test points and jumpers to help in evaluation and troubleshooting. Each jumper is set by default to its preferred state for the TVP9900EVM. There are test points for I C SCL and SDA, GND, 5 V, 3.3 V, and 1.5 V.
25 MHz 4 MHz The TVP9900EVM provides the option of whether the TVP9900 or the PC is the tuner I C master, and this is selected with JP4 (SCL) and JP5 (SDA). The default setting is for the TVP9900 to be the I C master.
