OVERVIEW
This unit is a 4.5 by 5.0 inch circuit board that simplifies the
evaluation of the XR-T3590 Single Chip V.35 Transceiver
in a CCITT V.35 application. Its features include dip
switch selection of all chip options, and provisions for
applying the ground potential offset voltage specified by
the V.35 test procedure to the receiver inputs. Figure 1.,
Figure 2.and Table 2.show the demo board component
layout, circuit diagram, and list of components
respectively.
POWER REQUIREMENTS
Supply voltages of +5.0 Volts

are applied to the board through
banana jacks. Both power sources should be
well-regulated, and each be capable of supplying 250 mA
minimum. During normal operation jumper E-1 must be
installed, and nothing is connected to the banana jack
labeled OFFSET.

DIGITAL INPUT DIGITAL OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
The TTL compatible transmitter inputs are the BNC
connectors mounted on the left side of the board that are
labeled TX1IN, TX2IN and TX3IN. Provisions are
included for installing input termination resistors R1, R2,
and R3 if required. These resistors (50 or 75
) are
needed only if a pulse generator with a low impedance
output and a fast rise time is used as a test signal source.
They are not required for TTL signals applied to the board
through short cables.
Likewise, the TTL compatible receiver outputs are the
BNC connectors labeled RX1OUT, RX2OUT, and
RX3OUT.
TRANSMITTER LINE OUTPUT AND RECEIVER LINE
INPUT CONNECTIONS
The line connections are made to the six RJ-11
connectors or to the corresponding test point pairs that
are located on the right side of the board. The RJ-11s are
for connecting twisted pair cables, and the test points
provide a convenient means for viewing the output and
input signals differentially on an oscilloscope. From top to
bottom, the three transmitter outputs are labeled
TX1OUT, TX2OUT, and TX3OUT, and the three receiver
inputs are labeled RX1IN, RX2IN, and RX3IN. Note that
connectors are wired so that the “A” and “B” XR-T3588
output pins and the “A” and “B” XR-T3589 input pins go to
the same pin numbers on the RJ-11 connectors.
Therefore, a test cable must be wired in the same manner
to prevent a data inversion between the transmitter digital
input and the receiver digital output. (Telephone cables
typically contain a “twist” between modular connectors,
and will therefore give a data inversion.)
TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER FUNCTION
SELECTION
The DIP switch located in the center of the board selects
the logic state applied to the XR-T3590 function control
pins SL2, SL1, and SL0. Table 1.shows the function for
each switch setting. Note that when a DIP switch section
is “OFF,” a logic 1 is applied to the corresponding IC pin.
