EVAL-AD7276SDZ

 evaluation software 

GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

The 

EVAL-AD7276SDZ

 is a full featured evaluation board that can 

be used to easily evaluate all features of the 

AD7276

. The 

AD7276

 

is a 12-bit, high speed, low power successive approximation ADC. 
The part operates from a single 2.35 V to 3.6 V power supply and 
features throughput rates of up to 3 MSPS. The part contains a 
low noise, wide bandwidth track-and-hold amplifier that can 

handle input frequencies greater than 55 MHz. 
The evaluation board can be controlled via the system demon-
stration platform (SDP). The 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 board allows 

the evaluation board to be controlled via the USB port of a PC 
using the 

AD7276

 evaluation software. The 

EVAL-AD7276SDZ

 

generates all required power supplies on board and supplies power 
to the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 controller board. On-board components 

include the following: 

AD8022

: dual high speed, low noise op amp 

ADA4000-1

: single, low cost, precision JFET input operational 

amplifier 

AD780

: 2.5 V/3.0 V ultrahigh precision band gap voltage 

reference 

ADP1613

: step-up PWM dc-to-dc switching converter 

ADP1720

: 50 mA, high voltage, micropower linear regulator 

ADP7104

: 20 V, 500 mA, low noise, CMOS LDO  

ADM1185

: quad voltage monitor and sequencer 

ADG3308

: low voltage, 1.15 V to 5.5 V, 8-channel bidirectional 

logic level translator
