The LMK3H102 has one VDD (analog/digital core) supply pin that operates from 1.8 V to 3.3 V (± 5%) and two VDDO (output) supply pins that operate from 1.8 V to 3.3 V (± 5%). The VDD and VDDO power planes on the EVM can be powered from a single supply or dual supplies. Each plane can be powered directly from an external supply, an on-board DC/DC converter, or an on-board LDO. Though the LMK3H0102 already has integrated LDO regulators for excellent Power Supply Ripple Rejection (PSRR), the EVM's on-board regulators (U3 & U4) allows the user to power the EVM using a higher supply voltage, such as 5 V, and enable jumper selection of the VDDO voltage. TheLMK3H0102EVM can be powered from USB without the need for an external supply, as the 5 V supply to the on-board regulators can be powered by the USB port. Figure 3-2 shows how the external supply or the on-board regulators can be independently routed to the VDD and VDDO planes by configuring the power terminals and jumpers.
Power SMA port J18 is the main power terminal block for the EVM for connecting power from an external power supply and GND. J14 provides an alternative connector style for applying external power to the LMK3H0102EVM.
Table 3-1 summarizes the EVM power configurations to connect and route power to the VDD and VDDO supply domains of the LMK3H0102. Refer to Schematics for more details.
