Note: Si5xx samples must be ordered separately from the Si5xx-EVB.
1.1. Quick Start
1. Install an Si5xx device on the board.
2. Verify the jumper settings are correct.
3. Connect external power cable to the EVB (set voltage according to how the part was ordered).

3. Functional Description
The Si5xx-EVB is the evaluation board assembly for the Si5xx single/dual frequency XO/VCO. This evaluation
board assembly provides access to all signals for operating the device. The Si5xx-EVB schematics, bill of material,
and PCB layouts are included as sections 4, 5, and 6, respectively. Figure 2 provides a block diagram for the
board.

3.1. Power Supply
The Si5xx-EVB accepts either an external supply of 1.8, 2.5, or 3.3 V at connector J1. (Insure the voltage range of
the DUT is obeyed, and it is also good practice to set a current limit on the power supply).
3.2. Jumpers
There are two jumpers on the Si5xx-EVB as listed in Table 2. The board default is to have no jumpers.

3.3. Si5xx-EVB Voltage Control Signal
An external voltage control signal may be applied to the control voltage modulation input at the J12 header (VC).
This voltage supplies the control voltage or voltage modulation input to the DUT. See Section 3.2 on how to
configure the jumpers and VC enable resistors (R6 and R7).
3.4. Output Terminations
The Si5xx-EVB can support four different output formats: CMOS, LVPECL, LVDS, and HCSL. There are output
resistors that are needed to accompany each format. Table 3 shows which resistors are needed for each output:
