Required Equipment
The following equipment and documents are included in the EVM evaluation kit:
•
Evaluation board (EVM)
•
Mini-USB cable
•
Power cable
The following equipment is
not
included in the EVM evaluation kit, but is required for evaluation of this
product:
•
TSW14J57EVM or TSW14J56EVM data capture board and related items
•
High-Speed Data Converter Pro software
•
PC computer running Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP, 7, or 8
•
One low-noise signal generator for analog input. TI recommends the following generators:
–
Keysight E8663D
–
Rohde & Schwarz
®
SMA100A
•
Bandpass filter for analog input signal (1910 MHz or desired frequency). The following filters are
recommended:
–
Bandpass filter, greater than or equal to 60-dB harmonic attenuation, less than or equal to 5%
bandwidth, greater than 18-dBm power, less than 5-dB insertion loss
–
Trilithic™ 5VH-series tunable BPF
–
K&L Microwave™ BT-series tunable BPF
–
TTE KC6 or KC7-series fixed BPF
•
Signal-path cables, SMA or BNC (or both SMA and BNC)
By default, the ADCxxDJxx00EVM has an onboard clocking solution. A few small board modifications
enable external clocking. If external clocking is used, the following equipment is recommended.
•
Two low-noise signal generators. TI recommends similar models to the analog input source.
•
A bandpass filter for the DEVCLK input. TI recommends a filter similar to the analog-input path filter.
NOTE:
The clock source used to drive the LMK04828 (labeled LMKCLK) must be equal in frequency
to the ADC sampling clock (labeled DEVCLK). The clock generators must be frequency-
locked using a common 10-MHz reference.
