EVAL-ADMX6001-EBZ

DC-Coupled 10 GSPS Digitizer Evaluation Board.

Overview

The ADMX6001-EBZ is a dual-path digitizer evaluation board combining a high-speed AD9213 12-bit ADC operating at 10 GSPS with a precision AD4080 20-bit SAR ADC operating at 40 MSPS. This combination enables low-noise signal acquisition from DC to 5 GHz.

The high-speed path uses the ADL5580 differential amplifier driver for the AD9213, while the LTC2664 quad-channel DAC provides programmable DC offset adjustment to maximize the AD9213 input dynamic range. The board connects to an FPGA carrier via an FMC+ HSPC connector.

Features:

• High-speed path: AD9213 12-bit ADC at 10 GSPS with ADL5580 driver

• Precision path: AD4080 a 20-bit, 40MSPS, differential SAR ADC reduces 1/f noise

• Programmable DC offset: LTC2664 DAC output adjusts DC offset to maximize AD9213 input dynamic range

• FMC+ HSPC connector for VCU118 FPGA board connectivity

• Supports IIO Oscilloscope and Python (PyADI-IIO) software interfaces

Applications:

• Time-of-flight mass spectrometry

• Distributed fiber optic sensing

• Digital oscilloscopes

• Wideband signal capture and analysis

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 ADMX6001-EBZ, we recommend using the evaluation board together with the VCU118 FPGA carrier.

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.
