Hardware involved.
The SMT8090 is built around two main modules but also involves a carrier board and
some cables to interconnect them and allow them to communicate with each other
and to access the PC.
⇒ 1x SMT310Q: PCI carrier
⇒ 1x SMT374: Dual-C6713 based module; to be plugged on site 1 of
SMT310Q.
⇒ 1x SMT390: Dual-ADC module; to be plugged on site 2 of SMT310Q.
⇒ 1x FMS cable (20cm): to connect T1C0 to T2C3 at the back of the
SMT310Q.
⇒ 1x SMT516 (SHB to SHB PCB): to connect SHBA (SMT374) to SHBA
(SMT390).
⇒ 4x MMCX to BNC cables to connect an external analogue signal source to
J1 to J4 and an external clock source (when using external sampling clock) to J5 and
J6.
Hardware installation.
Here are the steps to follow to install the SMT8090 system.
1 – Place the SMT374 on TIM site 1 of the carrier board (SMT310Q).
2 – Place the SMT390 on TIM site 2 of the carrier board (SMT310Q).
3 – Make sure that the boards are firmly seated, then provide the 3.3V to the boards
by screwing in the bolts and screws through one of the mounting holes on the
SMT374 and SMT390.
4 – Connect CommPort 0 of the SMT374 to CommPort 3 of the SMT390 (T1C0 to
T2C3) via an FMS cable at the back of the SMT310Q.
5 – Connect SHBA on the SMT374 to SHBA on the SMT390 via the SMT516.
6 – Connect external sources to J1, J4, J5 and J6 via MMCX-BNC cables. Make sure
that the external signal meet the input characteristics of the SMT390 described in the
SMT390 User Manual.
7 – Place the carrier board in the host system.
