1.1 Introduction

The EVM can be configured through an on-board USB microcontroller (MCU) interface using a PC with TI's TICS Pro Software GUI. TICSPro can also be used to import and export register data for flexible programming of device. Input and outputs of LMKDB1108 can be interfaced with external system for evaluating compatibility and performance through coaxial cable. On-board LDOs give user an option to use the USB as power supply to minimize the number of test equipment needed. Side Band Interface (SBI) header pins can be used to daisy chain or control the outputs of LMKDB1108 for fast switching.
