Texas Instruments CDCF5801 Evaluation Module User'

Summary

This user guide details an engineering evaluation board kit designed for developing, demonstrating, or testing high-performance analog and CDC circuits. It provides comprehensive instructions on establishing signal control for DLYCTRL and LEADLAG pins by connecting inputs from sources like clock outputs, external SMAs, or an included MSP430 microcontroller. The manual guides users through setting up biasing resistors, selecting signal pathways using jumper switches (J7, J10), and programming the featured chip via dip switch settings (SW1). Ideal for electronics engineers needing a functional platform for rapid component prototyping and detailed system evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this evaluation board kit intended for commercial sale?

No, it is strictly intended for ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT, DEMONSTRATION, or EVALUATION PURPOSES ONLY and is not considered a finished end-product.

What do resistors R10, R16, R24, and R26 accomplish on the EVM?

They are used both for termination and for DC biasing the respective pins at half the VCC in the EVM.

How can I change the clock frequency when programming the CDCF5801 using MSP430?

The DIP Switch SW1 controls this; setting it to OFF typically yields 4 MHz, while ON gives 384 Hz for DLYCTRL.

What sources are available for the signals of the DLYCTRL and LEADLAG pins?

Signals can be received from the input/output clock, SMA, MSP430, or connected directly to GND or VDD using J7 and J10 switches.
