Product Details

The EVAL-AD3552RFMCZ is an evaluation board for the AD3552R, a dual-channel, 16-bit fast precision digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Each channel of the AD3552R is equipped with a different transimpedance amplifier: Channel 0 has a fast amplifier that achieves the optimal dynamic performance and Channel 1 has a precision amplifier that guarantees the optimal DC precision over temperature.

The board allows testing all the output ranges of the DAC, waveform generation, power supply and reference options.

The EVAL-AD3552RFMCZ interfaces to the USB port of a PC via a system demonstration platform (SDP-H1 board). It can also be connected to the ZedBoard or a different controller board.

Getting Started

Hardware Required

The evaluation board can be used with one of the following controllers, that must be purchased separately:

  • Oscilloscope or digitizer
  • SDP-H1 board
  • Digilent ZedBoard

Software Required

  • ACE software
  • Board.AD35X2R ACE plugin (automatically downloaded within ACE)

If using the Digilent ZedBoard as controller (see EVAL-AD3552R Wiki):

  • Kuiper Linux Image
  • IIO Scope tool
  • UART terminal tool
