GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

This user guide describes the 

EVAL-ADGM1004EBZ

 evaluation 

board for the 

ADGM1004

, a dual-chip, radio frequency (RF) 

switching solution containing a single-pole, four-throw (SP4T), 
microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) switch, and a control 
chip copackaged in a compact, 5 mm × 4 mm, LFCSP package. 
The SP4T switch uses Analog Devices, Inc., MEMS switch tech-
nology, providing optimum performance in terms of bandwidth, 
power handling capability, and linearity for RF applications. The 
control chip generates the high voltage signals needed for the 
MEMS switch and allows the user to control its operation through 
a simple and flexible complementary metal-oxide semiconductor 
(CMOS)/low voltage transistor-transistor logic (LVTTL) compliant 
parallel interface. 
The 

EVAL-ADGM1004EBZ

 comes fitted with connectors for RF 

and control signals as well as links to control the operation of the 
switch and evaluate its performance. 
For full details on the 

ADGM1004

 data sheet,
