EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE 

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 

The 

AD7175-2

 is a highly accurate, high resolution, multiplexed, 

2-/4-channel (fully differential/single-ended) Σ-Δ ADC. The 

AD7175-2

 has a maximum channel-to-channel scan rate of 

50 kSPS (20 µs) for fully settled data The output data rates range 
from 5 SPS to 250 kSPS. The device includes integrated rail to 
rail analog input and reference input buffers, an integrated 
precision 2.5 V reference, and an integrated oscillator. 
See the 

AD7175-2

 data sheet for complete specifications. 

Consult the data sheet in conjunction with this user guide when 

using the evaluation board. Full details for the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 

are available on the Analog Devices website. 

HARDWARE LINK OPTIONS 

See Table 1 for default link options. By default, the board is 
configured to operate from the supplied 9 V ac-to-dc adapter 
connected to connector J5. The 5 V supply required for the 

AD7175-2

 comes from the on-board low dropout regulator 

(LDO). The 

ADP7118

, with a 5 V output voltage, receives its 

input voltage from J3 or J5 (depending on the position of LK2) 
and generates a 5 V output.

Default Option 

Description 

LK1 

Selects the voltage applied to the power supply sequencer circuit (U3); dependent on AVDD1. Place in 
Position A if using 5 V AVDD1, or Position B if using 2.5 V AVDD1. 

LK2 

Selects the external power supply from Connector J3 (Position A), or J4 (Position B). 

LK5 to LK9 

Inserted 

Inserting these links sets up the on-board noise test. In this mode, all inputs short to the common 
voltage via SL11. 

SL1 

Sets the voltage applied to the AVDD2 pin. Operates using the AVDD1 supply (default). Position B sets 
the AVDD2 voltage to 3.3 V supply from the 

ADP7118

 (3.3 V) (U10) regulator. 

SL2 

Selects between an external or on-board AVDD1 source. Supplies AVDD1 from th

ADP7118

 (5 V) (U7) 

(default). 

SL3 

Selects between an external or on-board AVSS source. Supplies AVSS from th

ADP7182

 (-2.5 V) (U4) (default). 

SL4 

Connects AIN4 to: A4 / J6 (Position A), REFOUT pin on th

AD7175-2

 (Position B) or AVSS (Position C). 

Positions B and C are used to simplify using a single ended input source. 

SL5 

Selects between an external or on-board IOVDD source. Supplies IOVDD from the

 ADP7118

 (3.3 V) (U10) 

(default). The evaluation board operates with a 3.3 V logic. 

SL8 

Routes A0 to: AIN0 pin on the 

AD7175-2

 (Position A), Buffer/Inamp U8 (Position B), Funnel Amp U9 with 

gain of 0.8x (Position C) or J10-1 (Position D). 

SL9 

Routes A2 to: AIN2 pin on th

AD7175-2

 (Position A), Buffer U12 (Position B) or Funnel Amp U9 gain of 

0.4x (Position C). 

SL10

Routes A3 to: AIN3 pin on th

AD7175-2

 (Position A), Buffer U12 (Position B) or Funnel Amp U9 gain of 

0.4x (Position C). 

SL11 

Routes A1 to: AIN1 pin on the 

AD7175-2

 (Position A), Buffer/Inamp U8 (Position B), Funnel Amp U9 with 

gain of 0.8x (Position C) or J10-7 (Position D). 

R49 to R51 

Inserted 

Connects AVSS and AGND for single-supply operation. To operate in split supply mode, remove these links.
