LMK00338EVM

Evaluation and Demonstration Boards and Kits are optimized to simplify the development of embedded systems. They provide users with the hardware and software needed to verify the system functions that will be integrated into the end product. The LMK00338EVM is an example of such a board. It is a complete low phase noise clock generator evaluation module that can generate a wide variety of clock signals from multiple reference sources. This paper will discuss the application field, as well as the working principle of the LMK00338EVM.

Application field

The LMK00338EVM is designed for use in communications and consumer applications, such as wireless and wireline base stations, optical modules, DSL modems, set-top boxes, and so on. It can be used to generate clock frequencies from both AC line and sine wave sources. The board is capable of synthesizing a wide variety of multi-phase clock signals from multiple signal inputs, allowing the user to take full advantage of the module’s low jitter and low phase noise characteristics. It is also compatible with the popular PLL devices used in many of these applications.

Working principle

The LMK00338EVM board works by converting the AC voltage from the signal input into a DC voltage that is then processed by circuit components, such as ICs, resistors, capacitors and inductors. These components are connected to the board’s two-channel signal multiplexer, which allows the user to select from a combination of two reference signals. These signals are filtered to remove any noise or jitter, and then applied to the PLL, which is used to synthesize the desired clock signal. The PLL then sends the clock signal to the board’s output, which is then passed through a low pass filter to ensure that the desired frequency is maintained. This signal is then passed to the board’s clock output.

In addition to generating clock signals, the board also offers an adjustable voltage output for use in applications that require a higher voltage level. This output is adjustable, allowing the user to select the appropriate voltage for the application. The board’s features are also designed to reduce emission levels that could interfere with other signals in the vicinity.

The LMK00338EVM board is a great example of an Evaluation and Demonstration Board and Kit that offers users a complete solution for their embedded systems development needs. Its low noise and jitter characteristics, along with its ability to synthesize multiple clock signals, make it an ideal solution for a variety of applications. With its adjustable voltage output and low emission levels, it is sure to meet the requirements of most applications.
