ADC117x Evaluation Module
1
Overview
The ADC117xEVM is designed to evaluate the ADC1173, ADC1175, and ADC1175-50. The EVM
provides simple and minimal external components to reduce system cost and power consumption.
The following features apply to this EVM:
•
8-bit, low-cost, low-power, high-speed CMOS interface ADC117x data converter
•
Onboard oscillator or external source for sampling clock
•
User-programmable, low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator
•
Level-shifting data buffer for ADC CMOS output
The ADC117xEVM is designed to work seamlessly with the TSW1400EVM, TI's CMOS and LVDS pattern
generator and data-capture board.
