Using the EVM
As a prototype board, the buffer circuit has resistor pads for configuring the input as either single-ended or
fully differential input. The input circuit can be modified to accommodate user prototype needs, whether it
be evaluating another differential amplifier or limiting noise for best performance. The analog, power, and
digital connectors can be made to plug into a standard 0.1” breadboard or ribbon cables to interface
directly to FPGAs or processors.
As a software test platform, connectors P1 and P2 plug into the serial interface connectors of the 5-6K
interface card. The 5-6K interface card plugs into the C5000 and C6000 Digital Signal Processor starter
kits (DSK). Refer to the 5-6K Interface Card User’s Guide (
SLAU104
) for more information.
