Test ADS5295
•
Connect Channel 1 of the ADS5295EVM to a signal generator through a band-pass filter (BPF). If no
BPF is present, the results are not good.
•
The amplitude of the input signal is dependent on the insertion loss of the filter and cables used as
well as the desired backoff from full-scale. An iterative approach is used to determine the amplitude
setting required to operate at approximately -1.0 dBFS. In this test setup, the amplitude was set to
+18.4 dBm.
•
Set the frequency of the signal generator to that shown in the ADC Input Target Frequency box
(1.00219727M).
•
Change the window option to Hanning, due to the fact that input signal and onboard CMOS clock are
non-coherent.
•
Pressing the Capture button returns the test result.
•
Repeat for Channels 2 through 8.
