The evaluation board supports 100Ω twisted-pair
T1, 75Ω coax E1, and 120Ω twisted-pair E1 op-
eration. The CDB61534, CDB61535, CDB6158,
CDB61574, and CDB61577 are supplied from
the factory with a 1:2 transmit transformer that
may be used for all T1 and E1 applications. The
CDB61535A, CDB6158A, CDB61574A,
CDB61575, CDB61304A, and CDB61305A are
supplied with a 1:1.15 transmit transformer in-
stalled for T1 applications. An additional 1:1:1.26
transformer for E1 applications is provided with
the board. This transformer requires JP5 to be
jumpered across F-F for 75Ω coax E1 applica-
tions.
The CDB61534, CDB61535, CDB6158,
CDB61574, and CDB61577 require the JP8
jumper to be out for 75Ω coax E1 applications.
This inserts resistor R2 to reduce the transmit
pulse amplitude and meet the 2.37 V nominal
pulse amplitude requirement in CCITT G.703. In
addition, R2 increases the equivalent load imped-
ance across TTIP and TRING.
RECEIVE CIRCUIT
The receive line interface signal is input at the
RTIP and RRING binding posts. The receive sig-
nal is transformer coupled to the line interface de-
vice through a center-tapped 1:2 transformer. The
transformer produces ground referenced pulses of
equal amplitude and opposite polarity on RTIP
and RRING.
The receive line interface is terminated by resis-
tors R9 and R10. The evaluation boards are sup-
plied from the factory with 200Ω resistors for ter-
minating 100Ω T1 twisted-pair lines. Resistors
R9 and R10 should be replaced with 240Ω resis-
tors for terminating 120Ω E1 twisted-pair lines or
150Ω resistors for terminating 75Ω E1 coaxial
lines. Two 243Ω resistors and two 150Ω resist ors
are included with the evaluation board for this
purpose.
The recovered clock and data signals are avail-
able on BNC outputs labeled RCLK,
RPOS(RDATA), and RNEG(BPV). In the Hard-
ware and Host operating modes, data is output on
the RPOS(RDATA) and RNEG(BPV) connectors
in dual NRZ format. In the Extended Hardware
operating mode, data is output in NRZ format on
the RPOS(RDATA) connector and bipolar viola-
tions are reported on the RNEG(BPV) connector.
QUARTZ CRYSTAL
A quartz crystal must be installed in socket Y1 for
all devices except the CS6158 and CS6158A. A
Crystal Semiconductor CXT6176 crystal is rec-
ommended for T1 operation and a CXT8192 is
recommended for E1 operation. The evaluation
board has a CXT6176 installed at the factory and
a CXT8192 is also provided with the board.
The CDB6158 and CDB6158A have resistor R13
installed instead of a crystal. This connects the RT
pin of the device to the +5 Volt supply.
ALTERNATE CLOCK INPUT
The ACLKI BNC input provides the alternate
clock reference for the line interface device
(ACLK for the CS61534) when JP4 is jumpered
across C-C. This clock is required for the
CS61534, CS61535, CS6158, and CS6158A op-
eration but is optional for all other line interface
devices. If ACLKI is provided, it may be desir-
able to connect both C-C and D-D positions on
JP4 to terminate the external clock source provid-
ing ACLKI with the 51Ω resistor R1. If ACLKI is
optional and not used, connector JP4 should be
jumpered across D-D to ground pin 1 of the de-
vice through resistor R1.
