SERDES Evaluation Kit DS90UR241/124 USB Version 0.1 User Manual
Introduction:
National Semiconductor’s SERDES evaluation kit contains one (1) DS90UR241
Serializer (Tx) board, one (1) DS90UR124 De-serializer (Rx) board, and one (1) generic two (2) meter USB 2.0 Hi-SPEED cable assembly. National is not recommending using the USB 2.0 Hi-SPEED cable assembly but is provided in this kit as a generic solution to show the robustness of the chipset .
Note: the demo boards are not for EMI testing. The demo boards were designed for easy accessibility to device pins with tap points for monitoring or applying signals, additional pads for termination, and multiple connector options.
The DS90UR241/124 chipset supports a variety of display applications. The single
LVDS interface is well-suited for any display system interface. Typical applications include: navigation displays, automated teller machines (ATMs), POS, video cameras, global positioning systems (GPS), portable equipment/instruments, factory automation, etc.
The DS90UR241 and DS90UR124 can be used as a 24-bit general purpose LVDS
Serializer and De-serializer chipset designed to transmit data at clocks speeds ranging from 5 to 43 MHz.
The DS90UR241 serializer board accepts LVCMOS input signals. The LVDS Serializer converts the LVCMOS parallel lines into a single serialized LVDS data pair with an embedded LVDS clock. The serial data stream toggles at 28 times the base clock rate.
With an input clock at 43 MHz, the transmission rate for the LVDS line is 1.204Gbps.
The DS90UR124 de-serializer board accepts the LVDS serialized data stream with embedded clock and converts the data back into parallel LVCMOS signals and clock.
Note that NO reference clock is needed to prevent harmonic lock as with other devices currently on the market.
Suggested equipment to evaluate the chipset, an LVCMOS signal source such as a video generator or word generator or pulse generator and oscilloscope with a bandwidth of at least 43 MHz will be needed.
The user needs to provide the proper LVCMOS/RGB inputs and LVCMOS/clock to the serializer and also provide a proper interface from the de-serializer output to an LCD panel or test equipment. The serializer and de-serializer boards can also be used to evaluate device parameters. A cable conversion board or harness scramble may be necessary depending on type of cable/connector interface used on the input to the
DS90UR241 and to the output of the DS90UR124.
Example of suggested display setup:
1) video generator with LVCMOS output
2) 6-bit LCD panel with a LVCMOS input interface.

How to set up the Evaluation Kit:
The PCB routing for the serializer input pins (DIN) have been laid out to accept incoming LVCMOS signals from a 50-pin IDC connector. The TxOUT/RxIN (DOUT/RIN) interface uses a USB connector/cable assembly (provided). The PCB routing for the Rx output pins (ROUT) are accessed through a 50-pin IDC connector. Please follow these steps to set up the evaluation kit for bench testing and performance measurements:
1) A two (2) meter USB connector
/ cable assembly has been included in the kit.

to the de-serializer board. This
NOTE: The DS90C241 and DS90C124 are NOT USB compliant and should not be plugged into a USB device nor should a USB device be plugged into the demo boards.
2) Jumpers and switches have been configured at the factory; they should not require any changes for immediate operation of the chipset. See text on Configuration settings for more details. From the Video Decoder board, connect a flat cable (not supplied) to the Serializer board and connect another flat cable (not supplied) from the De-serializer board to the panel. Caution: The LVCMOS input levels should be within the specified range for optimal performance, not to exceed the absolute maximum rating of -0.3V to (VCC +0.3V).
Note: For 50 ohm LVCMOS input signal sources, add 50 ohm parallel termination resistors R1-R25 on the DS90UR241 Serializer board and provide appropriate 3.3V
LVCMOS input signal levels into DIN[23:0] and TCLK.
3) Power for the Tx and Rx boards must be supplied externally through Power Jack
(VDD). Grounds for both boards are connected through Power Jack (VSS) (see section below).
Power Connection:
The serializer and de-serializer boards must be powered by supplying power externally through J4 (VDD) and J5 (VSS) on serializer Board and J4 (VDD) and J5 (VSS) on deserializer board. Note +4V is the absolute MAXIMUM voltage (not operating voltage) that should ever be applied to the SERDES serializer (DS90UR241) or de-serializer
(DS90UR124) VDD terminal. Damage to the device(s) can result if the voltage maximum is exceeded.

SERDES Serializer Board Description:
The 50-pin IDC connector J1 accepts 24 bits of LVCMOS RGB data (DIN0-DIN23) along with the clock input (TCLK).
The SERDES serializer board is powered externally from the J4 (VDD) and J5 (VSS) connectors shown below. For the serializer to be operational, the Power Down (S1-
TPWDNB) and Data Enable (S1-DEN) switches on S1 must be set HIGH. Rising or falling edge reference clock is also selected on S1-TRFB: HIGH (rising) or LOW
(falling). FPD_LINKII is an AC coupled LVDS (series 0.1
µF capacitors on each side of the LVDS serializer outputs and de-serializer inputs). JP1 and JP2 are configured from the factory to be shorted to VSS; these are the unused power wires in the cable harness.
The USB connector P2 (on the backside of the board) provides the interface connection to the LVDS signals to the de-serializer board. f

Pre-emphasis user note:
Pre-emphasis must be adjusted correctly based on application frequency, cable quality, cable length, and connector quality. Maximum pre-emphasis should only be used under extreme worse case conditions; for example at the upper frequency specification of the part and/or low grade cables at maximum cable lengths. Typically all that is needed is minimum pre-emphasis. Users should start with no pre-emphasis first and gradually apply pre-emphasis until there is clock lock and no data errors. The best way to monitor the pre-emphasis effect is to hook up a differential probe to the 100
Ω termination resistor (R1) on the
DS90UR124 Rx demo board (NOT to R27 on the DS90UR241 Tx demo board). The reason for monitoring R1 on the Rx side is because you want to see what the receiver will see the attenuation signal AFTER the cable/connector.

Troubleshooting
If the demo boards are not performing properly, use the following as a guide for quick solutions to potential problems. If the problem persists, please contact the local Sales
Representative for assistance.
QUICK CHECKS:
1. Check that Power and Ground are connected to both Tx AND Rx boards.
2. Check the supply voltage (typical 3.3V) and also current draw with both Tx and Rx boards. The Serializer board should draw about 55-65mA with clock and all data bits switching at 43MHz, (R
PRE
=9K
Ω). The De-serializer board should draw about
75-85mA with clock and all data bits switching at 43MHz, (minimum ROUT loading).
3. Verify input clock and input data signals meet requirements for VILmin, VILmax,
VIHmin, VIHmax, tset, thold), also verify that data is strobed on the selected rising/falling (RFB pin) edge of the clock.
4. Check that the Jumpers and Switches are set correctly.
5. Check that the cable is properly connected.

Check the Power Down pins of both Serializer and
De-serializer boards to make sure that the devices are enabled (/PD=Vcc) for operation. Also check
DEN on the Serializer board and REN on the
Deserializer board is set HIGH.
Check for shorts in the cables connecting the TX and
RX boards.
After powering up the demo boards, the power supply reads less than 3V when it is set to 3.3V.
Use a larger power supply that will provide enough current for the demo boards, a 500mA minimum power supply is recommended.
