Product Details
The MAX3873A evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies evaluation of the MAX3873A, a low-power 2.488Gbps/2.67Gbps clock recovery and data retiming IC. The EV kit enables testing of all the MAX3873A functions. SMA connectors are provided for the differential CML-compatible data and clock outputs. The differential data and clock outputs have on-board AC-coupling capacitors to allow direct connection to a high-speed oscilloscope. The MAX3873A EV kit is configured for 3.3V operation and consumes up to 150mA.
Applications
- Add/Drop Multiplexers
- DWDM Transmission Systems
- SDH/SONET Receivers and Regenerators
