DS25BR204EVK User Manual
Overview
The DS25BR204EVK is an evaluation kit designed for demonstrating performance of the
DS25BR204, a 3.125 Gbps 1:4 LVDS Buffer/Repeater with transmit pre-emphasis and receive
equalization. The evaluation kit is comprised of the DS25BR204 with its associated input and
output SMA connectors and jumpers to manually configure the switch. In addition, the EVK
features three FR4 striplines (15 (~38), 30 (~76) and 60 (~152) inches (cm) in length) for
exercising device’s signal conditioning features (pre-emphasis and equalization).
The purpose of this document is to familiarize the user with the DS25BR204EVK, to suggest test
setup procedures and instrumentation to test the device optimally, and to guide the user through
some typical measurements that demonstrate the performance of the DS25BR204 in typical
applications.
