Overview
The ADS54J69EVM is an evaluation module (EVM) designed to evaluate the ADS54J69 high-speed,
JESD204B interface ADCs. The EVM includes an onboard clocking solution (LMK04828), transformer-
coupled inputs, full power solution, and easy-to-use software GUI and USB interface.
The following features apply to this EVM:
•
Transformer-coupled signal input network allowing a single-ended signal source from 0.4 MHz to 800
MHz
•
LMK04828 system clock generator that generates field-programmable gate array (FPGA) reference
clocks for the high-speed serial interface and may be used to generate the ADC sampling clock
(default setting)
•
Transformer-coupled clock input network to test the ADC performance with a very low-noise clock
source
•
High-speed serial data output over a standard FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) interface connector
The ADS54J69EVM is designed to work seamlessly with the TSW14J56EVM, Texas Instruments’
JESD204B data capture/pattern generator card, through the High Speed Data Converter Pro (HSDC Pro)
software tool for high-speed data converter evaluation. The ADS54J69EVM was also designed to work
with many of the development kits from leading FPGA vendors that contain an FMC connector.
