GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

The 

EVAL-AD7177-2SDZ

 evaluation kit features the 

AD7177-2

a 32-bit, 10 kSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with 
integrated rail-to rail-analog input buffers, on-board power 
supply regulation, and an external amplifier section for amplifier 
evaluation. A 7 V to 9 V ac-to-dc adapter is regulated to 5 V 
and 3.3 V, which supply the 

AD7177-2

 and support components. 

The 

EVAL-AD7177-2SDZ

 evaluation board connects to the USB 

port of a PC via the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 SDP controller board.  

The 

AD7177-2

 evaluation software fully configures the 

AD7177-2

 

device functionality via a user accessible register interface and 
provides dc time domain analysis in the form of waveform graphs, 
histograms, and associated noise analysis for ADC performance 
evaluation. 
Full specifications for the 

AD7177-2

 are available in the product 

data sheet, which should be consulted in conjunction with this 
user guide when using the evaluation board.
