This gizmo accepts a 10 or 20MHz reference clock and provides two sets of (4) ECL-level differential programmable outputs. The output frequency is set according to the table below.

JP1/JP3 JP2/JP4 Mult Out/10MHz Out/20MHz
L L 4X 40MHz 80MHz
L - 5.3125X 53.125MHz N/A
L H 5X 50MHz N/A
- L 6.25X 62.5MHz N/A
- - 2X 20MHz 40MHz
- J 3.125X 31.25MHz 62.5MHz
H L 6X 60MHz N/A
H - 3X 30MHz 60MHz
H H 8X 80MHz N/A

Notes:

The jumper set JP1/JP2 controls the outputs J1-J4. The jumper set JP3/JP4 controls the outputs J5-J8.

"L" or "H" means install a jumper between the middle pin and the upper or lower pin. "-" means do not install any jumper (or "park" the jumper so it doesn't connect any pins).

Both sets of outputs are fed by the common BNC input, which requires a 1-3V peak-to-peak square or sine wave input with approximately 50% duty cycle.

PCB Documentation

The PCB layout was done with ExpressPCB

Here is the specification we were given:

We have the following CAEn units that need either 40 or 50 MHz:

WFD (all need 50 MHz driver frequency, I think ECL of some form)
DT5730, 500 MHz, desk top   3-102203-4 connector, LVDS/ECL/PECL/LVPECL (100 ohms ac-coupled)
DT5720, 250 MHz, desk top   (same)
V1724, 16 MHz, VME          (same)
V1720, VME, not sure of frequency  (same)

TDC (needs 50 MHz driver frequency, I think ECL of some form)
V1290N  two 3M 3408-5202  Not clear if Ac- or Dc- coupled
