Setup
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well as how to properly connect, set
up, and use the DS125DF111EVM.
The DS125DF111EVM can be used in three different modes:
1. Pin Control Mode – provides access to selected signal integrity settings.
2. SMBus Slave Mode – provides full access to signal integrity and control settings.
3. EEPROM Mode – provides full access to signal integrity and control settings. EEPROM mode is a
convenient method of programming one or more DS125DF111 devices on system power up when an
SMBus master (microcontroller or similar) is unavailable in the design.
This EVM and documentation focus on Pin Control and SMBus Slave Mode to highlight the ease-of-use
and excellent low-jitter performance of the DS125DF111.
5.1
Pin Control Mode
In Pin Control Mode, the external control pins on the DS125DF111 are used to configure the signal
integrity and control settings of the device. In this mode, only a subset of the VOD and de-emphasis
(DEMA/B) levels are available. Due to the limited number of control pins, a limited bandwidth 4-level input
scheme has been implemented across the control pin interface. This allows for improved DE and VOD
control with fewer physical pins.
The four levels are defined below:
Table 1. Four-Level Logic Settings
Level
Input Pin Setting
Low - 0
1 kΩ to GND
Resistor - R
20 kΩ to GND
Float - F
Open
High - 1
1 kΩ to VDD
The EVM interfaces to this 4-level I/O using the setup in Figure 2. Only one shunt connection is required
to access any of the four levels. This methodology minimizes the risk of improper connections that could
damage the board or board power supply.

5.1.1
Pin Control Mode Configuration
The DS125DF111EVM is shipped ready-to-use in pin control mode. The EVM requires the following power
supply inputs and jumper settings:
1. J17 – GND
2. J19 – VIN to VIH: 3.3 V supply operation (2.5 V internal regulator is enabled)
3. J15 – VIN = 3.3 V: Use internal regulator to convert 3.3V supply to internal supply level of 2.5 V
NOTE: The 2.5 V level may be observed on J18 (VDD) or the device VDD pins. While in 3.3 V mode,
J18 (VDD) is a regulated output voltage. Do not connect a 2.5 V supply to this pin.
4. J3 – ENSMB = 1 kΩ to GND (L): Pin Control Mode
5. J6 – LBK = 1 kΩ to VIN (H): Normal operation, INA - to - OUTA and INB - to - OUTB
6. J91 – VODA = 1 kΩ to GND (L): 600 mV output VOD on OUTA
7. J10 – VODB = 1 kΩ to GND (L): 600 mV output VOD on OUTB
8. J41 – DEMA = 1 kΩ to GND (L): 0 dB de-emphasis on OUTA
9. J51 – DEMB = 1 kΩ to GND (L): 0 dB de-emphasis on OUTB
10. J161 – LOCK: With shunt installed, LOCK LED will light Green when DS125DF111 CDR is in the
locked state
5.1.2
VOD and De-Emphasis
The DS125DF111EVM uses pin strapping to define the VOD and DE level of the outputs. These are set
by the following jumpers on the DS125DF111EVM:
• VODA – J9 / J91
• VODB – J10
• DEMA – J4 / J41
• DEMB – J5 / J51
See Table 2 and Table 3 for a complete list of VOD and DE settings.

5.2
SMBus Slave Mode
The SMBus can also be used to control DS125DF111 devices. This method has the advantage of
independent channel control and finer signal conditioning granularity.
1. J17 – GND
2. J19 – VIN to VIH: 3.3 V supply operation (2.5 V internal regulator is enabled)
3. J15 – VIN = 3.3 V: Use internal regulator to convert 3.3 V supply to internal supply level of 2.5 V
NOTE: The 2.5V level may be observed on J18 (VDD) or the device VDD pins. While in 3.3 V mode,
J18 (VDD) is a regulated output voltage. Do not connect a 2.5 V supply to this pin.
4. Floating the AD[1:0] inputs will result in an SMBus address = 00 = 30’h
5. J3 – ENSMB = H: SMBus Slave Mode
6. Connect the board signals SDA, SCL, and GND on J20 to a DPS-DONGLE-EVM or an equivalent
USB2ANY device. A pull-up resistor is needed on the SMBus clock and data signals; place jumpers on
pins 1-2 of J4 and J5 to connect a 1 kΩ pull-up resistor to SCL and SDA. The address line settings on
J16 (ADR0) and J10 (ADR1) are pin strap settings which get latched on power up and retain their
value until the DS125DF111 is power cycled.
7. The DS125DF111's control and signal integrity settings are programmable with SigCon Architect, a
GUI which supports full register access through SMBus communication. An example of a
DS1xxDF111EVM connected to a PC through a DPS-DONGLE-EVM is shown in Figure 3 and
Figure 4. The possible SMBus address settings are shown in Table 5. For more information about
SigCon Architect, reference the "SigCon Architect: Installation and Starter's Guide" (SNLU178).

Register Architecture and Bit Fields
There are two types of device registers in the DS125DF111. These are the Control/Share Registers and
the Channel Registers. The Control/Share Registers control or allow observation of settings which affect
the operation of all channels of the DS125DF111. They are also used to select which channel of the
device is to be the target channel for reads from and writes to the Channel Registers.
The Channel Registers are used to set all the configuration settings of the DS125DF111. They provide
independent control for each channel of the DS125DF111 for all the configurable device characteristics.
Any registers not described in the datasheet tables should be treated as Reserved. The user should not
try to write new values to these registers. The user-accessible registers described in the datasheet provide
a complete capability for customizing the operation of the DS125DF111 on a channel-by-channel basis.
Many of the registers in the DS125DF111 are divided into bit fields. This allows a single register to serve
multiple purposes, which may be unrelated. Often configuring the DS125DF111 requires writing a bit field
that makes up only part of a register value while leaving the remainder of the register value unchanged.
5.2.2
Using SigCon Architect
SigCon Architect can be used to program the DS125DF111EVM. In order to use SigCon Architect for
SMBus Slave Mode access control, a DPS-DONGLE-EVM (see SNLU184) or USB2ANY equivalent
adapter board must be used. This adapter board serves as an interface board to allow SMBus
communication between the PC and the DS125DF111 retimer. The SigCon Architect GUI features high
level control, low level register bit level control, and an Eye Monitor page to program the device. Examples
of these pages are shown in the following figures.

EEPROM Mode
A serial EEPROM may also be used to configure one or more DS125DF111 devices. This configuration
mode is accessed by setting ENSMB = FLOAT. When the DS125DF111 is placed in EEPROM Mode, the
DS125DF111 will attempt to load its startup settings from a programmed EEPROM in the 8-pin DIP socket
(U2). SigCon Architect can be used to generate an EEPROM Hex file by configuring the EEPROM page
settings.
Figure 8. DS125DF111 EEPROM Hex File Generation Page
SigCon Architect cannot directly program the EEPROM. A third-party tool must be used to write the
EEPROM hex file into a valid EEPROM. For details about EEPROM hex file generation, please reference
"Understanding EEPROM Programming for 10G to 12.5G Retimers" (SNLA245) and the
"DS110DF410EVK, DS110DF410EVK, and DS125DF410EVM Evaluation Board Software Installation,
Setup, and Operating Guide" (SNLU126).

EVM Layout
Figure 9 and Figure 10 show the board layout for the DS125DF111EVM. The EVM uses simple 100 mil
headers to control the output signal integrity functions. The DS125DF111EVM is very compact and low
power. The board traces have been designed for connection to standard 50 Ω test equipment and cables.
The QFN package offers an exposed thermal pad to enhance electrical and thermal performance (this pad
must be soldered to the copper landing on the PCB).
