Internal Clock

DIYAMC-0-EVM Internal Clock CircuitFigure 2-6 Internal Clock Circuit

Figure 3-6 shows the example internal clock modulator output circuit for the DIYAMC-0-EVM.

Row 4 of the EVM provides a digital output with internal clock configurations. Using Coupon A4 as an example, the output is accessible to the user by connector J8. The passive components of the output are comprised of R14, R16, C35, and C36 to form two RC filters. The output filter from pin 6 of the device has a cutoff frequency of 159MHz. C30 and C31 serve as decoupling capacitors for noise reduction and low-side supply (DVDD) stability.

Using an oscilloscope, the user can observe the output signal at J8.3 (DOUT). R14 and C35 filter the internal clock output of the device to connection J8.2 (CLKOUT) while R16 and C36 filter the digital output of the device to connection J8.3.
