Description:

This Channel Link demo kit contains a transmitter (Tx) demo board and a receiver (Rx) demo board along with an interface cable. This kit will demonstrate the chipsets transmitting data streams using Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) through a cable at seven times the input clock rate.

The transmitter board accepts 3V TTL/CMOS data signals from an incoming data source along with the clock signal. The LVDS transmitter converts the TTL/CMOS parallel lines into serialized LVDS pairs. The serial data streams toggle at 7 times the clock speed.

The receiver board accepts the LVDS serialized data (and clock) and converts them back into parallel 3V TTL/CMOS data out signals.

Contents:

  • One Transmitter board with IDC connectors on Tx input DS90CR483MTD - 48 bit Transmitter
  • One Receiver board with IDC connectors on Rx output DS90CR484MTD - 48 bit Receiver
  • One 2-meter 3M MDR LVDS Cable interface to connect TxOUT to RxIN. Note: The MDR footprint has been set to accept a D26-1 pinout.
  • Demonstration Kit Documentation
  • DS90CR483A/DS90CR484A Datasheet

What the user needs to provide:

  • 3.3V supply
  • Equipment to transmit for 48 parallel LVCMOS bits + 1 Tx clock
  • For BERT, receiver for 48 parallel LVCMOS data + 1 Rx clock
