\section e1x0_imgs Specify a Non-standard Image
UHD software will automatically select the USRP-Embedded FPGA image from
the installed images package. The FPGA image selection can be overridden
with the `fpga` device address parameter.
Example device address string representations to specify non-standard
FPGA image:
fpga=usrp_e100_custom.bin
\section e1x0_mcr Changing the Master Clock Rate
The master clock rate of the USRP-Embedded feeds both the FPGA DSP and
the codec chip. Hundreds of rates between 32 MHz and 64 MHz are
available. A few notable rates are:
- **64 MHz:** maximum rate of the codec chip
- **61.44 MHz:** good for UMTS/WCDMA applications
- **52 MHz:** good for GSM applications
\subsection e1x0_mcr_extvcxo Set 61.44MHz - uses external VCXO
To use the 61.44 MHz clock rate with the USRP-Embedded, two jumpers must
be moved on the device.
- **J16** is a two pin header; remove the jumper (or leave it on pin1
only).
- **J15** is a three pin header; move the jumper to (pin1, pin2).
**Note:** See instructions below to communicate the desired clock rate
to UHD software.
\subsection e1x0_intvco Set other rates - uses internal VCO
To use other clock rates, the jumpers will need to be in the default
position.
- **J16** is a two pin header; move the jumper to (pin1, pin2).
- **J15** is a three pin header; move the jumper to (pin2, pin3).
To communicate the desired clock rate into UHD software, specify the a
special device address argument, where the key is
`master_clock_rate` and the value is a rate in Hz. Example:
uhd_usrp_probe --args="master_clock_rate=52e6"
\section e1x0_clksync Clock Synchronization
\subsection e1x0_clksync_ref Ref Clock - 10MHz
The E1xx has a 10MHz TCXO which can be used to discipline the flexible
clocking by selecting `REF_INT` for the uhd::clock_config_t.
Alternately, an external 10MHz reference clock can be supplied by
soldering a connector.
- Connector **J10** (REF_IN) needs MCX connector **WM5541-ND** or
similar.
- Square wave will offer the best phase noise performance, but
sinusoid is acceptable.
- **Power level:** 0 to 15dBm
- Select `REF_SMA` in uhd::clock_config_t.
\subsection e1x0_clksync_pps PPS - Pulse Per Second
An external PPS signal for timestamp synchronization can be supplied by
soldering a connector.
- Connector **J13** (PPS) needs MCX connector **WM5541-ND** or
similar.
- Requires a square wave signal.
- **Amplitude:** 3.3 to 5 Vpp
Test the PPS input with the following app (`` are device
address arguments, optional if only one USRP device is on your machine):
cd /lib/uhd/examples
./test_pps_input --args=
\subsection e1x0_clksync_gpsdo Internal GPSDO
Please see the \subpage page_gpsdo for
information on configuring and using the internal GPSDO.
UHD software will always try to detect an installed GPSDO at runtime. It
is not necessary to burn a special EEPROM value for GPSDO detection.
\section e1x0_hw Hardware Setup Notes
\subsection e1x0_hw_leds Front panel LEDs
The LEDs on the front panel can be useful in debugging hardware and
software issues. The LEDs reveal the following about the state of the
device:
- **LED A:** transmitting
- **LED B:** PPS signal
- **LED C:** receiving
- **LED D:** FPGA loaded
- **LED E:** reference lock
- **LED F:** board power
\section e1x0_misc Miscellaneous
\subsection e1x0_misc_sensors Available Sensors
The following sensors are available; they can be queried through the
API.
- **ref_locked:** clock reference locked (internal/external)
- other sensors are added when the GPSDO is enabled
