POWER SUPPLY

The J5, a wire screw terminal, provides the VDD and GND supplies

to the board. The VDD and GND supplies can be selected for each

device pin by setting the link headers to either VDD or GND. When a

VSS supply is needed, apply the voltage directly to the VSS or GND

pin of the device by removing the corresponding link.

LINK HEADERS

The link headers supply the DUT with either VDD or GND. The

headers are designated K1 to K16 with the number corresponding

to the pin number of the device. Table 1 summarizes the link

headers and how they function on the EVAL-16LFCSPEBZ.

SMB CONNECTORS

There are four SMB connectors on the EVAL-16LFCSPEBZ, J1

to J4, with each having an adjacent gold pin connector. When

an SMB cable is connected to one of these SMB connectors,

the input signal becomes available on the corresponding gold pin

connector. Apply this input signal to the relevant device pin by

forming a connection from the SMB gold pin connector to a gold pin

connector found on the relevant trace.

INPUT SIGNAL TRACES

Each trace includes three sets of gold pin connectors with 0805-

and 0603-compatible pads (two sets that can place a load on the

signal path to ground, and another set that is in series with the

signal path). The three sets of gold pin connectors can create a

simple RC filter.
