E1XC EVALUATION DAUGHTERBOARD

OVERVIEW

The PM6541 E1XC EVBD evaluation daughterboard allows for the test, evaluation

and demonstration of the PMC PM6341 E1XC device. It is also compatible with the

PM4341 T1XC device. This daughterboard can be used standalone with up to two

E1XC devices but has been especially designed to mate with the PMC PM1501

EVMB evaluation motherboard to form a complete evaluation system. All required

decoding logic is provided on the E1XC EVBD daughterboard to give the EVMB

direct access to all registers of both E1XC devices.

All of the principal connections to both devices have been brought out to header

strips for convenient test access. E-1 digital interfaces are provided on a header

strip and BNC or mini-bantam connectors are provided for E-1 analog signals. Both

Ω and 120 Ω interfaces are provided. The backplane interfaces of each device

are accessible through header strips and the devices can be interconnected back to

back, effectively creating a jitter-attenuating format converter by dropping in shorting

connectors into specific DIP sockets.

Clocks for the backplane are provided by a T1/CEPT digital trunk DPLL which

provides a synchronized 1.544 MHz, 2.048 MHz, or 4.096 MHz signal. The PLL can

be easily bypassed to allow direct drive of the backplane with an appropriate

oscillator. A prototype area has been provided for breadboarding more complex

applications.

The E1XC EVBD evaluation daughterboard is configured, monitored, and powered

through an edge connector that is designed to mate with the EVMB evaluation

motherboard
