Abstract
A system includes a control board, a controlled board, and a connector connecting the control board to the controlled board. The control board includes a processing unit that configures the reference voltage signals, a non-volatile memory that stores information about the reference voltage signals, and a DAC that outputs the reference voltage signals in accordance with instructions from the processing unit. The controlled board includes: first and second voltage reference devices that receive first and second reference voltage signals, respectively, and a radio-frequency device that receives a first frequency signal and a second frequency signal and outputs a third frequency signal based on one of the first and second reference voltage signals. The connector includes an analog line for providing reference voltage signals to the first and second voltage reference devices and a digital line for providing control signals to activate one of the first and second voltage reference devices.
