Product Details

The EVAL-AD4857FMCZ is designed to demonstrate the performance of the AD4857 and to provide access to many included configuration options that are accessed via a simple ACE plug-in graphical user interface (GUI). The AD4857 is a fully buffered, 8-channel simultaneous sampling, 16-bit, 1 MSPS data acquisition system (DAS) with differential, wide common-mode range inputs.

The EVAL-AD4857FMCZ on-board components include the following:

  • The LTC6655 high precision, low drift, 4.096 V voltage reference (not used by default)
  • The LT1761, low noise, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 5 V low dropout (LDO) regulators
  • The LT8330 low quiescent current (IQ) boost converter

For full details on the AD4857, see the AD4857 data sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when using the EVAL-AD4857FMCZ evaluation board.

This evaluation board can also be used to evaluate the performance of the AD4855.
