Product Details

The ADXBAND16EBZ contains four AD9084 mixed‑signal front‑end devices, including the RF front end, clocking, and power circuitry. The ADXBAND16EBZ serves as a complete system solution targeting common applications such as phased‑array radars, wideband systems, and ground‑based SATCOM. Its primary target application is a 16‑Tx/16‑Rx direct X‑band sampling phased array.

The platform is intended as a testbed for demonstrating multi‑chip synchronization, as well as implementing system‑level calibrations, beamforming algorithms, and other signal‑processing techniques. The system is designed to interface with the VCU118 Evaluation Board from Xilinx®, which features the Virtex® UltraScale+™ XCVU9P FPGA, along with provided reference software, HDL code, and MATLAB system‑level interfaces.

A 16‑Tx/16‑Rx Calibration Board can be used to develop system‑level calibration algorithms, including demonstrations of power‑up phase determinism. The Calibration Board provides improvements in combined‑channel dynamic range, spurious performance, and phase noise, and can be controlled via a MATLAB add‑on when connected to the PMOD interface of the VCU118.

  • Self-contained evaluation board, including the ADF4382 frequency synthesizer with integrated VCO, loop filter, USB interface, onboard reference oscillator, propagation delay calibration paths, and voltage regulators
  • Windows®-based software allows control of synthesizer functions from a PC
  • Externally powered by 6 V

Product Details

The EV-ADF4382SD1Z evaluates the performance of the ADF4382 frequency synthesizer with an integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) for phase-locked loops (PLLs). A photograph of the evaluation board is shown in Figure 1 in user guide. The EV-ADF4382SD1Z contains the ADF4382 frequency synthesizer with an integrated VCO, a USB interface, power supply connectors, on-board reference oscillator, propagation delay calibration paths, and Subminiature Version A (SMA) connectors. The outputs of the EV-ADF4382SD1Z are AC-coupled with 50 Ω transmission lines, making these outputs suitable to drive 50 Ω impedance instruments.

The EV-ADF4382SD1Z requires an SDP-S controller board, which is not supplied with the evaluation board kit). The SDP-S allows software programming of the EV-ADF4382SD1Z with Analog Devices, Inc., ACE software.

Full specifications for the ADF4382 frequency synthesizer are available in the ADF4382 data sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when working with the EVADF4382SD1Z.
