DESCRIPTION
The DS3150DK is a small, self-contained evaluation kit for the DS3150 DS3/E3/STS-1 LIU. A soldered
DS3150 and careful layout of the analog-signal traces ensure maximum signal integrity. Jumpers on the
board allow the user to configure the DS3150 in any mode. LEDs indicate V
CC
present, loss of signal,
transmit driver failure, and PRBS sync. The board provides BNC connectors for the line-side transmit and
receive differential pairs and a header for various system-side signals. On-board oscillators serve as local
timing sources for DS3 and E3 operation. All jumpers, LEDs, and connectors are clearly labeled to make
the board as easy as possible to use.

BOARD FLOOR PLAN
Figure 1 shows the floor plan of the DS3150DK. The DS3150 is in the center of the board. The line-side
BNC connectors for the Tx and Rx differential pairs are at the bottom of the board, while the system
connector and configuration jumpers are at the top. The LEDs for DM*, LOS*, and PRBS are in the
upper left-hand corner; the power supply connectors and power indicator LED are in the upper right. The
T3 and E3 oscillators sit to the right of the DS3150. All analog signal traces were carefully designed to
ensure signal integrity.

JUMPERS
Configuration Inputs. The jumpers on the DS3150DK allow the user to configure the DS3150 in any of
its operating modes (Figure 2). Each configuration input pin on the DS3150 has a corresponding jumper
to connect the pin to V
DD
or GND (or leave it floating). Silk-screen labels around the jumpers show that
the DS3150 configuration pins are wired to the center posts of the jumper sites. Additional board
markings indicate that a V
CC
rail is connected to the top post of each jumper site while a GND rail is
connected to the bottom posts. Jumpers JP3, JP5, JP7, JP8, JP9, JP10, JP11, JP12, JP13, and JP14 control
configuration input pins on the DS3150.
TCLK. On the right side of the board, jumper JP1 connects either the T3 oscillator output or the E3
oscillator output to the intermediate node OSC. Install JP1 between top and middle posts for an E3 clock
or between the middle and bottom posts for a T3 clock. Install jumper JP2 to connect the DS3150 TCLK
pin to the OSC node. Leave JP2 uninstalled to source TCLK from the System Connector.
MCLK. Jumpers JP4 and JP6 control the DS3150 MCLK pin. Install jumper JP4 (and not JP6) to
connect the DS3150 MCLK pin to the OSC node. Install jumper JP6 (and not JP4) to connect the MCLK
pin to V
CC
or GND. Leave both JP4 and JP6 uninstalled to source MCLK from the System Connector.
