- | ===== INTRODUCTION ===== | + | |
- | The AD9747 Evaluation Board connects to the Analog Devices Digital Pattern Generator (DPG2, PN: ADI HSC-DAC-DPG-BZ; or DPG3, PN: AD –DPG3) or System Demonstration Platform (SDP-H1, PN: EVAL-SDP-CH1Z) to allow for quick evaluation of the AD9747. The DPG2 or SDP-H1 allows the user to create many types of digital vectors and transmit these at speed to the AD9747 in any of the AD9747 operating modes. The AD9747 | + | |

- | ===== HARDWARE SETUP (DAC OUTPUT) ===== | + | |
- | Once the DPGDownloader software is installed, the hardware can be connected . A single 5V power supply powers the evaluation board. The power supply should be able to source up to 1A to cover all the board’s operating conditions. A low jitter clock source (< 0.5psec RMS) should be used for the DACCLK. A sinusoidal clock output level of 0 to 4dBm is optimal. By default, the DAC outputs are connected to SMA connectors for evaluation. Both DAC outputs are available. Later in the document, the modifications for observing the modulator output and different clocking options will be shown. | + | |

- | Once the DPGDownloader software is installed, the hardware can be connected as shown below. A single 5V power supply powers the evaluation board. The power supply should be able to source up to 2A to cover all the board’s operating conditions. A low jitter clock source (< 0.5psec RMS) should be used for the DACCLK. A sinusoidal clock output level of 0 to 4dBm is optimal. By default, the DAC outputs are connected to SMA connectors for evaluation. Both DAC outputs are available.

- | There are 6 pin jumpers on the evaluation board corresponding to the 6 supplies on the board. They serve as ‘switches’ that determine if the on board LDOs or external supplies are used for each individual supply. They are shunted by default, which means on board LDOs are used.
