AD-FMCDAQ2-EBZ

Dual 14-bit 1 GSPS ADC and quad 16-bit 2.8 GSPS DAC FMC evaluation board.

AD9144 chip AD9680 chip

Overview

The AD-FMCDAQ2-EBZ module is comprised of the AD9680 dual, 14-bit, 1.0 GSPS, JESD204B ADC, the AD9144 quad, 16-bit, 2.8 GSPS, JESD204B DAC, the AD9523-1 clock, and power management components. It is clocked by an internally generated carrier platform via the FMC connector, comprising a completely self-contained data acquisition and signal synthesis prototyping platform.

Features:

  • Includes schematics, layout, BOM, Gerber files, HDL, Linux® drivers, IIO Oscilloscope, VisualANALOG

  • FMC-compatible form factor

  • Powered from single FMC connector

  • Two channels of ADC and two channels of DAC with full synchronization

Applications:

  • Electronic test and measurement equipment

  • General-purpose software radios

  • Radar systems and signals intelligence (SIGINT)

  • Ultra wideband satellite receivers

  • Point to point and MIMO communication systems

  • Automated test equipment

Recommendations

People who follow the flow that is outlined have a much better experience. However, like many things, documentation is never as complete as it should be. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on our EngineerZone forums, but before that, please make sure you read our documentation thoroughly.

To better understand the AD9144 / AD9680, we recommend using the AD-FMCDAQ2-EBZ evaluation board.

Warning

All the products described on this page include ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive devices. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000V readily accumulate on the human body or test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the boards feature ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality. This includes removing static charge on external equipment, cables, or antennas before connecting to the device.
