AD9172-FMC-EBZ

AD9172 evaluation board is FMC form-factor board with FMC connectors that comply to the Vita 57.1 standard. Analog Devices produces an FPGA carrier called the ADS7-V2, which serves as a digital pattern generator or data source as well as the power supply for the boards. The user must be able to observe the DAC output on a spectrum analyser. A low noise clock source is provided on the evaluations boards, the HMC7044 clock synthesizer, and an option exists for the user to supply a low jitter external sine or square wave clock as a clock source instead. The evaluation board comes with software, called ACE, which allows the user to program the SPI port. Via the SPI port, the DUT (and clock circuitry) can be programmed into any of its various operating modes. It also comes with the DAC software suite which includes the DPGDownloader for vector generation, download and transmission to the evaluation board when using the ADS7-V2.

• FMC board use a mini-circuits balun on the DAC output
• AD9172 board has an option to be powered from lab power supply when used in a special NCO-only mode
