Quick View of Evaluation Setup
shows an overview of the evaluation setup that includes the ADS5295EVM evaluation module
(EVM), TSW1400EVM, external equipment, personal computer (PC), and software requirements.
Figure 1. Evaluation Setup
TSW1400EVM/GUI: The high-speed LVDS deserializer board, TSW1400EVM, is required for capturing
data from the EVM. The capture analysis uses the TSW1400 High Speed Data Converter Pro graphical
user interface (GUI). For more information pertaining to the TSW1400EVM, see:

Equipment: Signal generators (with low-phase noise) must be used as the 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 EVM. The supplies for the ADS5295 device are derived
from the +5-V supply. The power supply must be able to source up to 1.5 A. A +5-V wall adapter supply
powers the TSW1400EVM.
USB Interface to PC: The USB connection from the EVM and TSW1400EVM to the personal computer
(PC) must be set up.
