Quick Start
This section will aid in bringing up the board for the first time as well as a brief tutorial on the WaveVision
5 (WV5) software. Further description of the Reference Board is in subsequent sections of this document.
The software is further described in the WaveVision 5 Users' Guide or the HELP function within the
software. The ADC1xDxxxx(RF) and LMX2541 data sheets should be consulted for detailed
understanding of device functionality.
The user is advised to construct a lab setup as close to the one shown in
as possible. This setup,
along with the board and software configuration described below, is what was used to test the reference
board at Texas Instruments lab. This set of conditions produces the stated reference performance – which
is normally included with each board shipped to customers. The objective is to assure that the user can
achieve the same performance as that recorded at Texas Instruments lab prior to board shipment.

clean (beyond –80dBm SFDR).
