The DS21448DK is an easy-to-use evaluation board
for the DS21448 quad E1/T1/J1 LIU. It is intended to
be used as a daughter card with the DK101
motherboard or the DK2000 motherboard. A surfacemounted DS21448 and careful layout of the analog
signal traces provide maximum signal integrity to
demonstrate the transmit and receive capabilities of
the DS21448. The DK101/DK2000 motherboard and
Dallas’ ChipView software give point-and-click
access to configuration and status registers from a
Windowsâ-based PC. On-board LEDs indicate
interrupt status and receive-carrier loss for all four
ports. The evaluation board provides both RJ45 and
BNC connectors for the line-side transmit and receive
differential pairs on all four ports.
Each DS21448DK is shipped with a free DK101
motherboard. For complex applications, the DK2000
high-performance demo kit motherboard can be
purchased separately.

· Connect the daughter card to the DK101 processor board.
· Supply 3.3V to the banana-plug receptacles marked GND and VCC_3.3V. (The external 5V connector is
unused. Additionally, the TIM 5V supply headers are unused.)
· All processor-board DIP switch settings should be in the ON position with the exception of the flashprogramming switch, which should be OFF.
· From the Programs menu, launch the host application named ChipView.EXE. Run the ChipView application. If
the default installation options were used, click the Start button on the Windows toolbar and select Programs ®
ChipView ® ChipView.
Using the DK2000 Processor Board
· Connect the daughter card to the DK2000 processor board.
· Connect J1 to the power supply that is delivered with the kit. Alternately, a PC power supply can be connected
to connector J2.
· From the Programs menu, launch the host application named ChipView.EXE. Run the ChipView application. If
the default installation options were used, click the Start button on the Windows toolbar and select Programs ®
ChipView ® ChipView.

General
· Upon power-up, the RCL LEDs are lit, and the INT LED is off.
· After power-up, the RCL LEDs extinguish upon external loopback.
· Due to the dual winding transformer, only the 120W line build-out (LBO) configuration setting is needed to cover both 75W E1 and 120W E1.
Miscellaneous
· Clock frequencies are provided by a register-mapped CPLD, which is on the DS21448 daughter card.
· The definition file for this CPLD is named DS21448DK02A0_CPLD.def. See the CPLD Register Map
definitions.
Quick Setup (Register View)
· The PC loads the program, offering a choice between DEMO MODE, REGISTER VIEW, and TERMINAL
MODE. Select Register View.
· The program requests a definition file. Select DS21448DK02A0_CPLD.DEF.
· The Register View Screen appears, showing the register names, acronyms, and values. Note the CPLD def file
contains a link such that the def file for the DS21448 is also loaded. Selection among the def files is
accomplished using the drop-down box on the right-hand side of the program window.
· From the drop-down box, select the DS21448 def file and configure register CCR3 of ports 1 through 4 with a
90h.
– The device begins transmitting a pseudo-random bit sequence. Upon external loopback, the RCL LED
extinguishes, denoting that the device has found a carrier and has successfully decoded the
pseudorandom bit sequence. For more advanced configurations, please refer to the DS21448 data sheet.
