EVAL-AD9088

Product Details

This user guide describes the evaluation hardware and software used to test the AD9084 and AD9088 (Apollo MxFE™).

The evaluation hardware consists of the AD9084-FMCA-EBZ or AD9088-FMCC-EBZ that connects to the ADS10-V1EBZ FPGA data capture and transmit board.

The evaluation software suite includes the Apollo MxFE evaluation software, PyApp (a Python scripting library), and API example code. These tools allow users to configure the Apollo MxFE evaluation platform in predefined or custom use cases, capture analog‑to‑digital converter (ADC) data samples, and transmit digital‑to‑analog converter (DAC) data samples. Each software tool includes a set of predefined use cases for quick initial bring‑up. ADC and DAC sample data are transferred over JESD links between the Apollo MxFE and the field‑programmable gate array (FPGA) on the ADS10‑V1EBZ. Captured ADC data can be viewed in the Apollo MxFE evaluation software, PyApp, or saved as finite‑length signal vectors for analysis with external tools. DAC transmit signals can be generated within the evaluation software or loaded from a file.

The Apollo MxFE evaluation software can generate and save new custom use cases for both the AD9084 and the AD9088.
