The evaluation kit is comprised of the DS25CP104 with its associated input and output SMA connectors and jumpers to manually select the desired pre-emphasis or equalization, a USB to SMBus conversion circuit to control the SMBus with a PC, and three FR4 striplines (15” (38.1cm), 30” (76.2cm), and 60” (152.4cm) ) to exercise the devices’ signal conditioning features (pre-emphasis and equalization). The purpose of this document is to familiarize the user with the DS25CP104EVK, to suggest test setup procedures and instrumentation to test the device optimally, and to guide the user through some typical measurements that demonstrate the performance of the DS25CP104 in typical applications.

The 4.5 by 4.5 inch, eight-layer PCB is designed to evaluate the functions of the DS25CP104. Figure 2. Top Layer DS25CP104EVK Page 4 of 17 DS25CP104EVK User Manual For descriptive purposes the DS25CP104EVK can be broken into three parts: 1. The DS25CP104 IC with associated connectors and jumpers is the main part of the board. The block diagram of the DS25CP104 is shown in Figure 3. The receive buffers can be set to Off and Low equalization by the external pins EQ0 – EQ3; the transmit buffers can be set to Off and Med. levels of pre-emphasis by the external pins PE0 – PE3. Since data capabilities are 3.125 Gbps, SMA connectors are used to ensure minimal loss. More information can be found about the DS25CP104 on the data sheets. 2. A USB to SMBus converter has been added to the evaluation kit to implement SMBus switch configuration to control the signal conditioning. Through the SMBus the DS25CP104 currently features four levels (Off, Low, Medium, and High) of preemphasis and two levels (Off, Low) of equalization. ADDRn SCL SDA EN_smb 3. Three channels of stripline have been added to the evaluation kit to test the preemphasis and equalization functions (15” (38.1cm), 30” (76.2cm), and 60” (152.4cm) ). In practical applications, devices often drive long backplanes or cables. To help reduce jitter caused from long backplanes or cables, pre-emphasis can be used for the drivers and equalization for the receivers. Figure 3.

The following section describes how to load and run the Analog Launch Pad from National Semiconductor, a proprietary interface, used to access the SMBus registers of the CP104. The 1st time the application is run on a PC, and only the 1st time, the application file needs to be downloaded, extracted, and then the appropriate driver needs to be enabled. Any time after that, on the same PC, you need only to setup the CP104EVK and then proceed to using the Analog Launch Pad. Loading and running the application file • • • • Download the application file from http://www.national.com/appinfo/lvds/ds25cp104evk.html Place in any folder on your PC, and run the file by double clicking on the file from Windows Explorer (or My Computer); this will extract the file and place it in C:\Program Files\National Semiconductor Corp folder. The Analog Launch Pad will now function only in the Demo mode. The Analog Launch Pad is designed to function on Windows 98/2000/xp Setup the CP104EVK (When using the USB, power should be off to the CP104 and USB unplugged when changing cables or changing the jumper pins.) 1. Install jumper pins as follows: J21, SMBus Enable J4 J3 J15, J16 J18, J19 J24, J22 J20, J23 H inserted removed removed L H L Enables the SMBus USB Controller Reset EEPROM write protect S00 (SCL), S01 (SDA) Address Address Table 8. Jumpers on the CP104EVK for SMBus use 2. Configure the test setup as desired, examples are fig. 4 – fig. 7. 3. Supply 3.3 V Power to board. Page 12 of 17 DS25CP104EVK User Manual Load the driver This needs to be done only once for a particular PC. • • Plug in the USB cable from the PC to the CP104 EVK; a small window should appear in the lower right corner of the PC recognizing new hardware. If the bubble says “USB device not recognized”, or nothing happens, check the jumper configuration, if still does not work remove jumper on J4 for 5 sec, and then replace. The USB controller is now reset and should be in communication with the PC; this can be known by “Hi speed USB device plugged into non Hi Speed USB hub” appearing in the window. Follow the instructions for New Hardware Wizard, which may take up to one minute to run. a. select “Install from a list or specific location” b. select “Don’t search I will choose the driver to install” c. select “Have disk” d. Browse to “C:\Program Files\National Semiconductor Corp\Analog LaunchPAD v1.07\Drivers” e. select “NSC ALP Nano” from the list f. install the driver g. hit “Continue Anyway” if windows compatibility window is displayed h. finish, you are now ready to run the Analog Launch Pad Page 13 of 17 DS25CP104EVK User Manual Page 14 of 17 DS25CP104EVK User Manual Using the Analog Launch Pad for the CP104EVK The Analog Launch Pad from National Semiconductor is a proprietary interface created to assist developers to test their designs and systems using National’s evaluation boards; the CP104EVK interface has been designed into the Analog Launch Pad. The registers of the CP104 can be accessed through this interface enabling all the functions accessed through the SMBus. Below is a picture of the Analog Launch Pad, CP104 interface: Figure 8. Analog Launch Pad, CP104 interface Page 15 of 17 DS25CP104EVK User Manual To use the interface: • Run the application Analog Launch Pad and select CP104 Nano. For the Analog Launch Pad to connect, the board must be powered with the appropriate jumper selections and the USB driver must be functioning. Otherwise it will open into the Demo mode. • Select the “Register” folder and enter the register that you want to change, make the appropriate changes, and then hit Apply. Register descriptions can be found in the DS25CP104 datasheets. Use only Apply to make changes; Refresh, Refresh All, Display, Load, and Save bubbles should not be used. • • A selected square corresponds to a ‘1’ while a blank square corresponds to a ‘0’. • To change the levels of Pre Emphasis or Equalization, you must first go to “Control” register and enable “Ignore External PE” and “Ignore External EQ” before adjusting the signal conditioning through the SMBus. • To use the “Loss of Signal”, you must first go to “Control” register and enable “LOS”. • The Verbose Description square switches to a more descriptive text.
