Quick View of Evaluation Setup
shows an overview of the evaluation setup that includes the ADS5294EVM evaluation module
(EVM), TSW1400EVM, external equipment, personal computer (PC), and software requirements.
Figure 1. Evaluation Setup
TSW1400EVM:
The high-speed LVDS deserializer board is required for capturing data from the
ADS5294EVM and its analysis using the TSW1400 graphical user interface (GUI).
For more information pertaining to be TSW1400EVM, see:

Equipment:
Signal generators (with low-phase noise) must be used as source of input signal and clock
(optional) in order to get the desired performance. Additionally, band-pass filters (BPF) are required in
signal and clock (optional) paths to attenuate the harmonics and noise from the generators.
Power Supply:
A 5-V supply powers the ADS5294EVM. The supplies for the ADS5294 device are
derived from the +5-V supply. The power supply must be able to source up to 1.5 A. A +6-V supply can
power the TSW1400EVM using a wall adapter.
USB Interface to PC:
The USB connection from the ADS5294EVM and TSW1400EVM to the personal
computer (PC) must be set up;
