h1. osmo-clock-conv
The osmo-clock-conv is a small board for low-jitter conversion of a sine clock into a square clock, based around the "LTC6957-4":https://www.analog.com/en/products/ltc6957-1.html.

h2. LEDs
h3. LED1 - bottom
indicator vor V+ supply voltage rail
h3. LED2 - top
indicator for VDD voltage rail
h2. Jumpers
h3. JP6 - VDD selection
There are three potential sources for the VDD voltage:
* *VDD uses V+ rail* (output of internal LDO): JP6 on pins 2-3
* *external VDD source*: voltage can be supplied on pin 3
* *external LDO*: can be placed between JP6 pin 1 (V_IN supply) and 3 (regulated VDD output)
h3. FILTA, FILTB
Please see the LTC6957 data sheet
h3. D1, SD2
Please see the LTC6957 data sheet
h3. JP7 - single-ended vs. differential input
If JP7 is closed, it disables the inverting clock input (IN-) of the LTC6957. X6/X2 can no longer be used.
h2. Connectors
h3. K1 - External 5V DC input
This is the power input for an external 5V DC power supply.
*Use only either K1 or JP5!*
h3. JP5 - Internal 5V DC input
In case *osmo-clock-conv* is part of a larger assembly/device, you may already have a 5V DC supply internally.
*Use only either K1 or JP5!*
h3. X5/X1
* if you use differential input (JP7 open): non-inverting clock input
* if you use single-ended input (JP7 closed): clock input
h3. X6/X2
* if you use differential input (JP7 open): inverting clock input
* if you use single-ended input (JP7 closed): unused
h3. X7/X3
Clock output "OUT1", AC-coupled
h3. X8/X4
Clock output "OUT2", AC-coupled

h2. Design Files
The design files can be found in the @osmo-small-hardware.git@ repository. Web access is provided via https://git.osmocom.org/osmo-small-hardware/tree/clock-converter
h2. Availability
This project is currently in the design verification stage. Once the verification has completed, it is expected that osmo-clock-conv boards will be made available via the "sysmocom webshop":https://shop.sysmocom.de/.
