  • Page 3: General Description

    • CodeLoader software The CodeLoader software will run on a Windows 2000 or Windows XP PC. The purpose of the CodeLoader software is to program the internal registers of the LMK01000 device through a MICROWIRE interface. Basic Operation To prepare the computer for use with the evaluation board, first install the CodeLoader4 software. Reference the document, “Installing CodeLoader 4”...
  • Page 4 4) Connect… • PC directly to the evaluation board with the LPT to 10 pin uWire cable, plugging the cable into an LPT port on the computer. This setup is shown below. The cable can be removed after programming to minimize noise and EMI.
  • Page 5 7) Select (ENABLE) output to measure, any of CLKout (0-7) or EN_CLK from either Clock Outputs or Bits/Pins tabs. For default mode, all outputs are disabled. 8) Program the LMK01000 evaluation board by clicking “Keyboard Controls” “Load Device”, or by pressing Ctrl+L.
  • Page 6: Board Information

    CLKin Inputs CLKin0 is one of two inputs that can be used to drive the LMK01000. Although this input is rated to higher frequencies, the balun on the board is only rated to 400 MHz. Ensure CLKin_SELECT is set to CLKin0 when using this input.
  • Page 7: Clkout Outputs

    CLKout Outputs CLKout0 to CLKout2 are LVDS outputs. For CLKout2, there is a balun attached, so it can be attached to single- ended test equipment. Although the output is rated to higher frequencies, the balun is only rated to 400 MHz. CLKout3 to CLKout7 are LVPECL outputs and all are configured the same.
  • Page 8: Sync

    This input connects to the SYNC* pin that can be used to synchronize the outputs in the event that they are dividing the input signal (divided mode). For bypass mode, this is not necessary. For the LMK01000 to run, this has to be set to high logic level.
  • Page 9: Recommended Equipment

    Recommended Equipment Power Supply The Power Supply should be a low noise power supply. An Agilent 6623A Triple power supply with external LC filters or an HP E3610A with external LC filters was used in creating these evaluation board instructions. The LC filters on the outputs help to reduce noise from the power supplies.
  • Page 10: Noise Floor Measurements

    LMK01000. The measured output noise consists of the output noise of the LMK01000 - plus the inherent noise of the signal generator, or reference signal input, chosen. To determine the actual noise floor of the device, the input noise must be measured, or interpolated. The charts referenced below were compiled with measurements from an Agilent E5052A Signal Source Analyzer.

  • Page 13: Codeloader Settings

    CodeLoader Settings Default Mode The default mode for all programming registers can be restored by clicking Mode “245.76 MHz OSCin”. The default reference oscillator used for these instructions is 245.76 MHz and the restored mode expects a 245.76 MHz OSCin signal. For the loaded mode to take affect the device must be first loaded by pressing Ctrl+L.
  • Page 14 Port Setup and Debugging Communication Issues Debugging Communication Issues Ensure that the correct mode of USB or LPT is selected. Ensure that the port setup is correct Ensure that the cable is properly hooked to the board such that it dangles off the edge of the board, as opposed to across the board.
  • Page 15: Bits/Pins Tab

    Bits/Pins Tab The Bits/Pins tab shows some of the internal registers, which are not accessible from any of the other visual tabs like “Clock Outputs”. Right-click on any of the bits to view a description. Program Bits POWERDOWN Powers the part down. The registers can be defaulted by checking and un-checking RESET.
  • Page 16: Clock Outputs Tab

    Clock Outputs Tab The Clock Outputs tab allows the user to visualize the clock distribution portions of the device. From this tab the device’s dividers, delays, clock output muxes, and output drivers can be programmed. Remember to enable an output to observe it. Note: the enables on this page are linked directly to the EN_CLKoutX on the Bits/Pins tab.
