GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

The 

EVAL-AD7450ASDZ

/

EVAL-AD7451SDZ

 is a full-featured 

evaluation board designed to allow the user to easily evaluate all 
features of the 

AD7450A

 and 

AD7451

. The evaluation board 

can be controlled via the system demonstration platform  
(SDP) connector (J8). The 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z 

board allows  

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

AD7450A

/

AD7451

 evaluation software. 

The 

EVAL-AD7450ASDZ

/

EVAL-AD7451SDZ

 generates all 

required power supplies on board and supplies power to the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 controller board. On-board components 

include the following: 

 

AD8599

: Ultralow distortion, ultralow noise op amp (dual) 

 

ADP1613

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

 

ADP3303-5

: High accuracy anyCAP™ 200 mA low dropout 

linear regulator  

 

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 

 

ADR431

: Ultralow noise XFET® voltage reference with 

current sink and source capability  

Various link options are described in the Evaluation Board 
Hardware section.
