SP508 EVALUATION BOARD
BOARD LAYOUT
1. The SP3508 Evaluation Board has been
designed to easily and conveniently provide
access to all inputs and outputs under test.

board. The schematic shows the location of
the driver and receiver access points as well
as the Jumpers,

4. I/O Pinouts
The SP3508 Evaluation Board has been
designed to easily and conveniently provide
access to all inputs and outputs to the device
under test. Each Driver has probe points for
the inputs and outputs. Each Receiver has
probe points for the inputs and outputs.
5. At the left of the board is a set of jumpers.
Each driver and receiver has its own indi-
vidual enable pin. This set of jumpers con-
trols the enabling and disabling of each
driver of receiver. Another set of jumpers is
to configure the 3 bit decoder, to enable/
disable loopback, to enable/disable latch
and to enable/disable term_off functions. In
addition, JP1 - JP4 allow the user to choose
which signals the user can access through
the DB-25 connector. JP5 allows the user to
set the driver
