DS280MB810EVM User’s Guide
The DS280MB810 is an 8 Channel Linear Repeater with the ability to extend the reach and robustness of
high speed serial links for up to 28 Gbps interfaces. Simplified equalization control, low power
consumption, and ultra-low additive jitter make the DS280MB810 ideal for front-port interfaces such as
100G-SR4/LR4/CR4 and backplane applications. The small 8 mm x 13 mm package easily fits behind
numerous standard front-port connectors, including SFP28, QSFP28, CFP2/CFP4, and CDFP, without the
need for a heat sink. The optimized package dimensions, high-speed signal escape, and the pin-
compatible retimer portfolio make the DS280MB810 well-suited for high-density backplane and front port
applications. The DS280MB810 can be configured via the default SMBus slave mode or with an external
EEPROM. With this kit, users can quickly evaluate the linear equalizer’s performance.

4 Setup
This section describes the jumpers and connectors on the EVM as well as how to connect, set up, and
use the DS280MB810EVM.
Figure 2. DS280MB810EVM Block Diagram.
4.1 Modes of Programmable Communication
The DS280MB810EVM can be programmed in one of two modes:
1. SMBus Mode – Provides full access to the DS280MB810 status and control settings via the on-board
USB2ANY. ADDR0 and ADDR1 pins are used to set the SMBus slave address.
2. External EEPROM – Provides access to the DS280MB810’s EEPROM programmable control settings
via an 8 pin EEPROM. Only a subset of SMBus slave register bits is written to EEPROM. The
EEPROM can program up to 16 slave devices.
For convenient use, a USB-to-Mini cable provides a direct connection via J27.

Figure 3. Repeater Profile Updater Installers.
Choose the Updater.exe profile for the relevant device. In this case, install “DS280MB810
Updater.exe.” Follow the prompts to install.
Once SigCon Architect and the correct updater profiles are installed, close any existing instance of
SigCon Architect again.
3. Connect 2.5 V power via banana plugs to VIN on J208 and GND to GND on J13, or connect 3.3 V
power via banana plugs to VIN on J14 and GND to GND on J13.
• For VDD = 2.5 V: Tie J198 jumper pins 1-2.
• For VDD = 3.3 V: Remove jumper shunt between pins 1 and 2 on J198. Tie J207 jumper pins 10-
9, 8-7, 6-5, 4-3, and 2-1.
4. Install the appropriate jumper shunt to operate with an internal or external calibration clock.
NOTE: The Reference Clock is not required for DS280MB810 operation.
5. Install the appropriate jumper shunts to operate in default configuration with VDD = 2.5 V in SMBus
Slave Mode or EEPROM Master Mode. The default configuration for the DS280MB810EVM operates
in SMBus Slave Mode, as shown below in Figure 4.
• J6 and J11: Tie jumper pins 10-9 in order to set the device slave address = 0x30. For all other
SMBus slave addresses, reference the DS280MB810 data sheet.
• J25: Tie jumper pins 3-1 and 4-2 in order to connect the SMBUS signals.
• J10: Tie jumper pins 3-1 and 4-2.
• J8: Tie jumper pins 2-1 and 4-3.
•(SMBus Only) J209: Tie jumper pins 6-5 to set ENSMB = 1 (1 kΩto VDD).
•(EEPROM Only) J209: Float the jumper shunt to set ENSMB=F.

column. Choose “Slave Address” “0x30” from the drop down menu. Verify the “USB2ANY Details”
specify “USB2ANY 0," and click “Apply." Successful connection is indicated by the green
“CONNECTED” indicator on the bottom of the application, as seen below in Figure 5. Once connection
is successfully established, users can read and write various settings to the device in real-time, as
described in the following steps.

9. In order to view a high level summary of the device status and control settings, navigate to the “High
Level Page," and remain on the “Device Status tab” as shown below in Figure 7. Click “Refresh From
Device” to ensure the settings shown are from the device. The settings on this page are not editable.
•Signal Detect Status: For each channel the device status is displayed as “Signal Not Detected” if
there is not a signal present at the RX side of this channel or “Signal Detected” if there is a signal
present at the RX side of this channel.
•Driver Power: The Driver Power can be turned on or off and the current status is displayed on the
Device Status page. The Driver Power is detected at the TX side of each channel.
•Control Settings: The remaining control settings are programmable through SigCon Architect.
The displayed values are the current settings programmed on the device. Step 10 describes how
to edit these settings.

10. In order to program high level settings, navigate to the “Block Diagram” tab on the “High Level Page”
as shown below in Figure 8. The EQ Settings and Output Configurations are programmable from this
page. In order to navigate to specific channels use the “Channel Select” drop down menu. Click
“Refresh from Device” to apply the device’s current settings to the control setting boxes. Click “Apply to
Channel” to program the device from the “Block Diagram” page. After programming the device, the
changed settings can be verified on the “Device Status” page, Figure 7. The CAL_CLK Detected
indicator provides a visual representation of whether a calibration clock is active.
•EQ Settings:
– The Equalizer works as a high pass filter compensating for input channel loss.
– The EQ Boost 1, EQ Boost 2, and EQ Boost BW values respectively apply boost to their
respective segments as shown below on the block diagram.
– The EQ DC Gain setting can be either Low or High Gain.
•Driver Output:
– A linear equalizer does not utilize a limiting amplifier. Linear equalizers are necessary for an
application with link training or end to end equalization.
– Driver VOD and EQ DC Gain settings can be changed on this page. The Approximate DC gain
in dB ranges from -4.5 to +5.0 dB.
