NOTE: IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH HIGH SPEED SERIAL DATA
TRANSMISSION:
Please be aware that the prototyping environment
does not meet full specifications for most
high speed serial data
transfer. However, it is possible to trade range and/or
bandwidth
for basic functionality in a prototyping environment.
Your data rate and range will vary
according to the
characteristics of your particular setup.
Tips for the
student or novice:
1)
Shorting some leads will
likely damage your project. UNDERSTAND before wiring.
2) Keep connections short, signal pairs
close, and avoid making Y’s, even with test
leads.
3)
Keep connector-to-receptacle connections at a minimum.
4)
Learning serial communications? EIA-232 (RS-232) is a good start.
Otherwise, P506 patterns
with a ’smile’
in the silk screen may easily yield good
results with their typical applications.
'Sharp teeth’ indicate
that engineering experience or quite a bit of luck is
required.
Notes for the professional
engineer:
1) Adapting to .100" spacing typically
violates impedance specifications of the wire pairs.
2) At
.100" spacing, impedance mismatch and the chance of oscillations and/or
reflections
will quickly increase with circuit complexity.
Terminate properly, decouple active components
thoroughly and
minimize 90 degree turns. If Y's in the signal path are required, keep all
lengths
very short to keep signal reflection frequency as high
above your operating frequency as you can.
3) Working
with a network analyzer will give you a good idea of your maximum
bandwidth right
away, allowing you to rapidly get a feel for what
is possible with prototyping adapters.
