Introduction
The Lime Development System is a comprehensive hardware and software combination that
allows users to evolve and refine a wireless sub-system. It can be combined with a baseband
processor such as an FPGA or DSP processor to develop a comprehensive wireless solution.
The EVB7 module is a high-speed wireless communication module, based on the LMS7002M
fully programmable RF transceiver. It is designed to support 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE radio systems
with both time-division duplex (TDD) and frequency-division duplex (FDD) applications, M2M
and software defined radios. The wireless communication module covers the frequency range of
100 kHz to 3.8 GHz, including licensed and unlicensed bands. The channel bandwidth is
programmable from less than 100 kHz to 108 MHz through a combination of analog and digital
filtering via the easy-to-use GUI software.
The EVB7 provides system designers with the ability to connect the board to any type of
baseband, FPGA or CPU and allow them to implement their ideas for various wireless
communication applications.
This document describes how to make a quick start with the LMS7002M using the EVB7
module. Section 2 begins by listing the contents of the Quick Start kit. Section 3 gives a general
description of the evaluation board features. Section 4 describes the procedure for obtaining and
installing the LMS7002M control software “Control LMS7002M” for both Windows and Linux
platforms. Section 5 describes how to connect and use the EVB and LMS7002M control
software “Control LMS7002M” for the Quick Start example configurations. Section 6 describes
in detail the EVB connectors and hardware options. Section 7 describes in detail how to use the
LMS7002M control software “Control LMS7002M”. Section

describes the calibration procedure. Appendix 1 details the recommended test and
measurement equipment, and how to set up the test equipment to work with EVB7 and the
LMS7002M.
