TNETE2201 EVM Kit Setup and Usage
Boyd Barrie MSDS Applications Group
Abstract
The Texas Instruments (TI ) TNETE2201 EVM (evaluation module) kit is a tool used to
evaluate and design high-speed prototypes using the TNETE2201 Ethernet Transceiver
IC (10 mm x 10 mm TQFP plastic package). The EVM kit is used to evaluate device
parameters while acting as a guide for high-speed board layout. The high-speed
interface is selectable between a 50- W SMA connector and a GBI

Application Report SLLA032 Board Layout and Configuration The TNETE2201 EVM kit is designed to give the developer many options for operation. Many of these options are selectable by DIP switch and others may require board component removal or additions. The following sections provide guidelines to configure the EVM kit for different modes of operation. The EVM kit is normally delivered in a default configuration that requires external clock and data inputs. The high-speed serial input and outpu

The GBIC Configuration requires a modification of the steering capacitors C23 through C30. This requires removing C24, C26, C27, and C30 and soldering these capacitors in locations C23, C25, C28, and C29 (see Figure 1). Figure 1. GBIC Setup Modifications GBIC INSTALLED CAPACITORS

Application Report SLLA032 Both the pulse generator and the BERT are synchronized with an external clock source. The operator adjusts the variable phase delay to ensure that the clock meets the setup and hold time of the data. The parallel data along with the clock is routed to the transmitter where the data is serialized and captured by the oscilloscope. Figure 3 shows an example eye diagram taken using this technique.
