1. Verify the output mode control switches, S1[1:5], match the states shown in Table 1 to reflect the default
output clock interfaces configured on the EVM.

2. Connect a 4 – 6 V power supply to VCC_EXT and GND terminals of the power block labeled J2. This powers
the on-board LDO regulator to supply 3.3 V to the VCC and VCCO rails of the IC. Both VCC & VCCO status
LEDs should be lit green when ON.
3. Set the desired clock input using the input selection control switches, S1[6:7], per Table 2. The onboard 25
MHz crystal (Y1) can be selected, so an external clock source is not required. A differential clock source can
be connected to SMAs labeled CLKin0/0* or CLKin1/1*. By default, these differential inputs are AC coupled
and terminated near the device with 100 ohms differential. To configure the EVM for a single-ended input,
refer to the Clock Inputs section.
