Silicon Labs UG467 User Manual

UG467: Si5396C/L Evaluation Board User's Guide
The Si5396C/L -EVB is used for evaluating the Si5396C/L Any-Frequency, Any-Out­put, Jitter-Attenuating Clock Multiplier. The Grade C board requires an external refer­ence. The Grade L board does not require a reference because it is internal to the chip. This user guide is intended for both the Si5396C and Si5396L EVBs. The device grade and revision is distinguished by a white 1 x 0.187 inch label installed in the low­er left corner of the board. In the example below, the label, "SI5396C-A-EB", indicates the evaluation board has been assembled with an Si5396 device, Grade C, Revision A, installed. (For ordering purposes only, the terms “EB” and “EVB” refer to the board and the kit respectively. For the purpose of this document, the terms are synonymous in context.). Note that the Si5396A/B/J/K are all 4-output, 2 PLL devices in a 44-pin package, while the Si5396C/D/L/M are 12-output devices in a 64-pin package. This user guide is for the Si5396C/D/L/M grade 12-output, 2 PLL devices.

External Reference Input (XA/XB)

6. External Reference Input (XA/XB)

An external reference (XTAL) is required in grade C in combination with the internal oscillator to produce an ultra-low-jitter reference clock for the DSPLL and to provide a stable reference for the free-run and holdover modes. To evaluate the device with a REFCLK, C111 and C113 must be populated and the XTAL removed (see the figure below). Also, R197 and R202 must be populated. The REFCLK can then be supplied to J39 and J40.
Note: For the Si5396L-A, which is the grade with the XTAL internal to the device, there will be no external XTAL supplied on the board and no input from Ref_XA and Ref_XB. In this case, it is advised that R197 and R202 are removed.

Clock Input Circuits (INx/INxB)

7. Clock Input Circuits (INx/INxB)

The Si5396C/L EVB has eight SMA connectors (IN0, IN0B – IN3, IN3B) for receiving external clock signals. All input clocks are termina­ted as shown below. Note that input clocks are ac-coupled and 50 Ω terminated. This represents four differential input clock pairs. Sin­gle-ended clocks can be used by appropriately driving one side of the differential pair with a single-ended clock. For details on how to configure inputs as single-ended, refer to the Si5396 reference manual.

Clock Output Circuits (OUTx/OUTxB)

8. Clock Output Circuits (OUTx/OUTxB)

Each of the 24 output drivers (12 differential pairs) is ac-coupled to its respective SMA connector. The output clock termination circuit is shown below. The output signal will have no dc bias. If dc coupling is required, the ac coupling capacitors can be replaced with a resis­tor of appropriate value. The Si5396C/L EVB provides pads for optional output termination resistors and/or low-frequency capacitors. Note that components with the schematic “NI” designation are not normally populated on the Si5396C/L EVB and provide locations on the PCB for optional dc/ac terminations by the end user.

10. Using the Si5396C/L EVB

10.1 Connecting the EVB to Your Host PC

Once ClockBuilder Pro software is installed, connect to the EVB with a USB cable as shown in the figure below:
Figure 10.1. EVB Connection Diagram
silabs.com | Building a more connected world. Rev. 1.0 | 12

10.2 Additional Power Supplies

UG467: Si5396C/L Evaluation Board User's Guide
Using the Si5396C/L EVB
Although additional power
(besides the power supplied by the host PC’s USB port) is not needed for most configurations, two additional +5 VDC power supplies (MAIN and AUX) can be connected to J33 and J34 (located on the bottom of the board, near the USB connec­tor). Refer to the Si5396C/L EVB schematic for details.
The Si5396C/L EVB comes pre-configured with jumpers installed at JP15 and JP16 (pins 1–2 in both cases) to select “USB”. These jumpers, together with the components installed, configure the evaluation board to obtain all +5 V power solely through the main USB connector at J37. This setup is the default configuration and should normally be sufficient.
The following figure shows the correct installation of the jumper shunts at JP15 and JP16 for default or standard operation.
Figure 10.2. JP15–JP16 Standard Jumper Shunt Installation
The general guidelines for single USB power supply operation are as follows:
• Use either a USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 port. These ports are specified to supply 900 mA and 500 mA, respectively, at +5 V.
you are working with a USB 2.0 port and you are current limited, turn off enough DUT output voltage regulators to drop the total
• If DUT current ≤470 mA. (Note: USB 2.0 ports may supply > 500 mA. Provided the nominal +5 V drops gracefully by less than 10%, the EVB will still work.)
• If you are working with a USB 2.0 and you are current-limited and need all output clock drivers enabled, reconfigure the EVB to drive the DUT output voltage regulators from an external +5 V power supply as follows:
• Connect an external +5 V power supply to terminal block J33 on the back side of the PCB.
• Move the jumper at JP15 from pins 1–2 USB to pins 2–3 EXT.

10.3 Overview of ClockBuilder Pro Applications

10.5.1 Verify Free-Run Mode Operation

UG467: Si5396C/L Evaluation Board User's Guide
Using the Si5396C/L EVB
Assuming no external
clocks have been connected to the INPUT CLOCK differential SMA connectors (labeled “INx/INxB”) located around the perimeter of the EVB, the DUT should now be operating in free-run mode, as the DUT will be locked to the crystal in this case.
You can run a quick check to determine if the device is powered up and generating output clocks (and consuming power) by clicking on the highlighted "Read All" button and then reviewing the voltage, current, and power readings for each VDDx supply.
Note: Switching the VDD and VDDA supplies “Off” and then “On” will power-down and reset the DUT. Each time this is done, you must go back to the Wizard’s main menu and select “Write Design to EVB” to reload the Silicon Labs default plan into the DUT’s register space, as shown below.
Figure 10.11. Write Design to EVB
Failure to perform this step will cause the device to read in a pre-programmed plan from its non-volatile memory (NVM). However, the plan loaded from the NVM may not be the latest plan recommended by Silicon Labs for evaluation.
At this point,
you should verify the presence and frequencies of the output clocks (running to free-run mode from the crystal) using ap­propriate external instrumentation connected to the output clock SMA connectors. To verify that the output clocks are toggling at the correct frequency and signal format, click on View Design Report as highlighted below.

Writing a New Frequency Plan or Device Configuration to Non-Volatile Memory (OTP)

11. Writing a New Frequency Plan or Device Configuration to Non-Volatile Memory (OTP)

Note: Writing to the device non-volatile memory (OTP) is NOT the same as writing a configuration into the Si5396C/L using ClockBuild-
er Pro on the Si5396C/L EVB. Writing a configuration into the EVB from ClockBuilder Pro is done using Si5396C/L RAM space and can be done virtually an unlimited numbers of times. Writing to OTP is limited as described below.
Refer to the Si5397/96 Family Reference Manual and device data sheets for information on how to write a configuration to the EVB DUT’s non-volatile memory (OTP). The OTP can be programmed a maximum of two times only. Care must be taken to ensure the desired configuration is valid when choosing to write to OTP.

UG467: Si5396C/L Evaluation Board User's Guide
Serial Device Communications

12. Serial Device Communications

12.1 Onboard SPI Support

The MCU onboard the Si5396C/L EVB communicates with the Si5396C/L device through a 4-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) link. The MCU is the SPI master and the Si5396C/L device is the SPI slave. The Si5396C/L device can also support a 2-wire I2C serial interface, although the Si5396C/L EVB does NOT support the I2C mode of operation. SPI mode was chosen for the EVB because of the relatively higher speed transfers supported by SPI vs. I2C.

12.2 External I2C Support

I2C can be supported if driven from an external I2C controller. The serial interface signals between the MCU and Si5396C/L pass through shunts loaded on header J36. These jumper shunts must be installed in J36 for normal EVB operation using SPI with CBPro. If
testing of I2C operation via external controller is desired, the shunts in J36 can be removed thereby isolating the onboard MCU from the Si5396C/L device. The shunt at J4 (I2C_SEL) must also be removed to select I2C as Si5396C/L interface type. An external I2C control­ler connected to the Si5396 side of J36 can then communicate to the Si5396C/L device. For more information on I2C signal protocol,
refer to the Si5396 data sheet.
The figure below illustrates the J36 header schematic. J36 even numbered pins (2, 4, 6, etc.) connect to the Si5396C/L device, and the odd numbered pins (1, 3, 5, etc.) connect to the MCU. When the jumper shunts have been removed from J36 and J4, I2C operation should use J36 pin 4 (DUT_SDA_SDIO) as the I2CSDA and J36 pin 8 (DUT_SCLK) as the I2CSCLK. Note that the external I2C con­troller will need to supply its own I2C signal pull-up resistors.
