Description
The EV8600 forms a basic evaluation platform for the CMX865/A, CMX867A and CMX868A wireline modems.
The board is populated with a dual-in-line socket to host the desired target IC and other components that are common to the two modems.

Two on-board connectors are provided for signal interfacing. The modem connector provides the analogue signal inputs and outputs plus other relevant signals to allow the addition of custom DAAs or to facilitate the connection of telecom test-measurement equipment.

The C-BUS connector breaks out the full C-BUS serial interface for convenient connection of a host processor card or the CML PE0002 Evaluation Kit Interface Card.  

The EV8600 schematic diagram is available in the support package (see resources above). To allow the EV8600 to facilitate CMX865A evaluation, a header board (HB865A) is available.
