Figure 1. CDCE72010EVM Board

The CDCE72010 is a high-performance, low-phase noise clock synchronizer and jitter cleaner. It has onemain universal VCO/VCXO input buffer and an auxiliary universal input buffer. Either Input can drive theoutputs and/or the feedback path to the PFD. The maximum VCXO/VCO input frequency is 1.5 GHz. Itprovides support for two redundant input references and using its on-chip PLL architecture can provide upto ten differential or 20 single-ended low jitter outputs.

The CDCE72010 supports two reference inputs, which can be differential or single-ended. It also providestwo VCXO inputs, which can drive up to ten outputs.

The CDCE72010 then can be programmed through the SPI interface using the evaluation module (EVM)programming GUI.

The evaluation module (EVM) is designed to demonstrate the electrical performance of the device.

This fully assembled and factory-tested evaluation board allows complete validation of all device functions.

For optimum performance, the board is equipped with 50- ΩSMA connectors and well-controlled 50- Ωimpedance microstrip transmission lines.

Signal Path and Control Circuitry

The CDCE72010 provides support for selectable tri-inputs, and two of the inputs (PRI REF and SEC REF)can accept a 8-kHz to 500-MHz frequency input from a differential signal source or a 8-kHz to 200-MHzfrequency input from a single-ended signal source.

The CDCE72010 provides support for up to ten differential (LVDS or LVPECL) or 20 single-ended(LVCMOS) or any combination of outputs up to 1.5 GHz. On the CDCE72010EVM, output 1 and output 8have a footprint option for installing crystal filters that can drive the phase noise floor down by 10 dB or 15db. This filtered signal is intended to be used for clocking high-performance, high-speed analog-to-digitalconverters (ADC).

The CDCE72010 requires an external loop filter. The loop filter selection determines the PLL loop stabilityand also affects the phase noise of the output. The EVM provides four sets of filters optimized for a30.72-MHz reference and 491.52-MHz VCXO. For any output of the CDCE72010, the frequency isdetermined by the selection of the VCO/VCXO and the setting of the output divider. The output jitterperformance is determined by the PLL settings (including the PFD frequency, charge pump current, andthe loop filter). See the CDCE72010 data sheet for more details and configuration settings.

Each of the ten outputs of the CDCE72010 can be selected through the software interface as LVPECL,LVDS, or LVCMOS. The CDCE72010EVM provides software selectable 150- Ωcurrent-setting resistors.

The LVCMOS outputs work for frequencies up to 250 MHz; the LVDS outputs run up to 800 MHz; andLVPECL outputs function up to 1.175 MHz (these are all minimum frequencies).

The provided GUI software allows users to easily send commands to the CDCE72010 through thehost-powered USB interface. The EVM includes a slave USB controller that transmits the commands tothe SPI programming interface included on the CDCE72010. The DC power for the USB controller caneither be derived from the 5-V power pin in the USB cable or by using an external 5-V DC adapter into theslot available on the EVM. If the device is accessible for programming by the SPI programming interfacethrough the USB controller, the onboard LED D25 is illuminated on power up.

In addition to writing commands to the CDCE72010 RAM while the board is powered, commands also canbe stored in CDCE72010 EEPROM. This allows users to start the EVM in the desired state withoutneeding programming at power up.

Note that the CDCE72010 has a permanent EEPROM lock mode. After this mode is selected, theEEPROM within the CDCE72010 cannot be changed. This is useful when setting final configurations.

The CDCE72010EVM software also provides support for the device GUI configurations to be saved into aconfiguration file, which can be opened at a later time with this GUI.

To start installation, run the CDCE72010 Control GUI v1.X.X.msi file.

Make note of the installation folder because you may need to refer to it when the USB cable is connectedand asks for the location of a driver file.

After the setup wizard has completed, start the GUI interface from the start menu (Start →CDCE72010Control GUI).

Connect the USB cable to the EVM. If The Windows™ operating system asks for an appropriate driver, donot use the automatic search option. Select a manual installation, and when prompted for the driverlocation, browse to the CDCE72010 GUI file folder that was used during instillation. If the Windowsoperating system does not ask for a driver, no action is required.

After the USB driver installation, the GUI software must connect properly and be ready for use. A greenlight in the USB Status and SPI Bus Status boxes indicates good USB connection, and a red lightindicates faulty USB connection or faulty SPI bus.

8.1 Default Configuration for Programming and Testing With USB Cable Attached

8.2 Configuration for Programming With USB Cable Attached

8.3 Configuration for Testing From a Saved Configuration With USB Cable Removed

Configuring the Board

www.ti.com

The CDCE72010EVM can be powered from the USB power supply or from an external source. TheCDCE72010EVM only needs a USB cable attached for programming purposes. However, for testmeasurements, it is recommended to also use an external 3.3-V power supply. Test measurements alsocan be taken with only the USB-supplied power. However, due to USB port power limitations, results maydegrade. It is also possible to program the CDCE72010 and then disconnect the USB cable (may requireminor board configuration changes).

The CDCE72010EVM is configured by default to operate with the USB cable attached and a 3.3-V powersupply added to EXT VDD and GND. In this configuration, the USB microcontroller is powered by the USBport’s 5-V supply whereas the CDCE72010 is powered by the 3.3-V external supply. This setup is optimalfor programming the CDCE72010 while also taking measurements. This configuration removes the powervariation found in USB power supplies by isolating the CDCE72010 from the USB supply.

The CDCE72010EVM can use power supplied through the USB cable as its sole power source. However,due to power supply variances in the USB supply, this configuration is not recommended formeasurements. This setup is for saving configuration settings to the CDCE72010 and later powering thedevice from its internal memory (useful if a USB port is unavailable in a laboratory or test chamber). In thisconfiguration, JP_3_3 must be moved from its default position to the new position shown in the followingillustration. Also, the Enable EVM Power box must be checked on the EVM GUI interface software.

After Programming

When operating the CDCE72010 without the USB programming cable (useful in laboratory settings inwhich a PC is unavailable at the laboratory station), the CDCE72010 needs to be configured and saved inthe EEPROM in one of the preceding configurations and then reconfigured for external power supplyusage.

Prior to making these board modifications, the CDCE72010 settings must be saved with one of the USBcable attached configurations. The Write EEPROM Unlocked or Write EEPROM Locked software buttonmust be used to save the CDCE72010 to its internal EEPROM. After the settings are saved to EEPROM,the USB cable can be removed. Once the cable has been disconnected, JP_3_3 must be in the UsingExternal 3.3V Supply position (as seen in the preceding diagram). The EVM now is ready for use withoutthe USB cable connected. The CDCE72010 always starts from its saved configuration state in this mode.
