GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

The EVAL-AD7175-2SDZ evaluation kit features the  

AD7175-2

a 24-bit, 250 kSPS analog-to-digital converter 

(ADC) with integrated rail to rail analog input buffers, on-
board power supply regulation, and an external amplifier 
section for amplifier evaluation. A 7 V to 9 V ac-to-dc adapter 
is regulated to 5 V and 3.3 V; this supplies the 

AD7175-2

 an

support components. The 

EVAL-AD7175-2SDZ

 board connects 

to a USB port via the system demonstration platform (SDP) 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 controller board.  

The 

EVAL-AD7175-2SDZ

 evaluation software fully configures 

the 

AD7175-2

 device functionality via a user accessible register 

interface and provides dc time domain analysis in the form of 
waveform graphs, histograms, and associated noise analysis for 
ADC performance evaluation.
