AD-FMCDAQ3-EBZ

Dual 14-bit, 1.25 GSPS JESD204B ADC and dual 16-bit, 2.5 GSPS JESD204B DAC FMC Board.

AD9680 chip

Overview

The AD-FMCDAQ3-EBZ is an FMC board featuring the AD9680 dual, 14-bit, 1.25 GSPS, JESD204B ADC, the AD9152 dual, 16-bit, 2.5 GSPS, JESD204B DAC, the AD9528 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. In an FMC footprint (84 mm × 69 mm), the module’s combination of wideband data conversion, clocking, and power closely approximates real-world hardware and software for system prototyping and design, with no compromise in signal chain performance.

Features:

  • FMC-compatible form factor, powered from a single FMC connector

  • Provides two channels of ADC and two channels of DAC with full synchronization capabilities

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

  • AD9680: JESD204B (subclass 1) 4-lane coded serial digital outputs, SFDR: 80 dBc at 1.0 GHz AIN, 2 GHz usable analog input full power bandwidth

  • AD9152: JESD204B (subclass 1), supports complex signal bandwidths up to 800 MHz, selectable 2×, 4×, 8× interpolation filters

Applications:

  • Electronic test and measurement equipment

  • General-purpose software radios

  • Radar systems

  • Ultra wideband satellite receivers

  • Signals intelligence (SIGINT)

  • Point-to-point communication systems

  • Multiple input/multiple output (MIMO) radios

  • Automated test equipment

Recommendations

People who follow the flow that is outlined, have a much better experience with things. 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 AD9680 / AD9152, we recommend using the AD-FMCDAQ3-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.
