QUICK START GUIDE TO THE AD9523 

The AD9523 can be initialized at startup from either the 
EEPROM or from SPI settings. The AD9523 evaluation board 
ships with initial settings programmed in the EEPROM. It is 
advised that the user first use the preprogrammed EEPROM 
settings before proceeding onto software control. 

To load the values stored in the EEPROM: 

1.

 

Ensure that the EEPROM pin is pulled high by placing the 
P4 EEPROM_SEL jumper of the evaluation board across 
the center and left (high) pin (see Figure 3). 

2.

 

Connect a signal generator to REF A SMA Connector J9. 
By default, the reference inputs on this evaluation board 
are ac-coupled and terminated 50 Ω to ground. An 
amplitude setting of 6 dBm is sufficient and the frequency 
should be 30.72 MHz. 

3.

 

Connect an oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, or other lab 
equipment to OUT1 SMA connector on the right side of 
the board. This output connector is a single-ended output 
of a differential pair.  

4.

 

Connect the 6 V power supply. This automatically loads 
the EEPROM settings into the AD9523 (the EEPROM 
configurations are similar as shown in Figure 6).  

To load the provided setup file: 

1.

 

Follow the instructions provided in the Evaluation Board 
Software Setup secti
on. 

2.

 

Ensure that the EEPROM pin is pulled low by placing the 
P4 EEPROM_SEL jumper of the evaluation board across 
the center and right (low) pin (see Figure 3). 

3.

 

Connect a signal generator to REF A SMA Connector J9. 
By default, the reference inputs on this evaluation board 
are ac-coupled and terminated 50 Ω to ground. An 
amplitude setting of 6 dBm is sufficient and the frequency 
should be 30.72 MHz.  

4.

 

Connect the 6 V power supply.  

5.

 

Provided on the CD is a setup file called 

AD9523_983plan_122p88MHz_VCXO_DoublerON.stp

 

located in the 

Setup Files

 directory. Load this setup file 

using the 

File

 menu from the main software window. The 

main window should appear as shown in Figure 6

6.

 

Click the 

CAL VCO

 button located in the 

PLL 2

 box of 

Figure 6

7.

 

Connect an oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, or other lab 
equipment to OUT1 SMA connector on the right side of 
the board. This output connector is a single-ended output 
of a differential pair. A picture of phase noise profile is 
located in the same directory as the setup file with the 
same file name (with .png extension). 

 

 

 

 

ESD Caution  
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device

. Charged devices and circuit boards can discharge without detection. Although this product features patented or proprietary protection 

circuitry, damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy ESD. Therefore, proper ESD precautions should be taken to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
