3.2.4 Clock Outputs

LMKDB1108 has eight differential clock outputs (CLK[0:7]_P/N).

All the outputs are DC coupled with a capacitive load of 2pF. CLK0_P/N and CLK4_P/N have SMA ports populated on the EVM for measurements. To evaluate all other outputs, SMA ports need to be soldered to connect outputs to the measurement instrument.

WARNING: DC-coupled clocks must not be directly connected to RF equipment, which cannot accept DC voltages greater than 0V, such as spectrum analyzers and phase noise analyzers.
