  • Data pattern generator and SPI software interfaces

Product Details

The AD9139-EBZ connects to a ADS7-V2EBZ or SDP-H1 for quick evaluation of the AD9139, a high-speed, signal processing Digital to Analog Converter. The ADS7-V2EBZ or SDP-H1 automatically formats the data and sends it to the AD9139-EBZ, simplifying evaluation of the device. The Evaluation Board (EVB) runs from a +5V supply. A clock distribution chip AD9516 is included on this EVB as a clock fan-out and frequency divider for the DACCLK, REFCLK and ADS7-V2EBZ or SDP-H1 input clock.

The AD9139-DUAL-EBZ connects to a ADS7-V2EBZ or SDP-H1 for quick evaluation of the AD9139, a high-speed, signal processing Digital to Analog Converter. The ADS7-V2EBZ or SDP-H1 automatically formats the data and sends it to the AD9139-DUAL-EBZ, simplifying evaluation of the device. The Evaluation Board (EVB) runs from a +5V supply. A clock distribution chip AD9516 is included on this EVB as a clock fan-out and frequency divider for the DACCLK, REFCLK, Frame, and ADS7-V2EBZ or SDP-H1 input clock. Also included is a quadrature modulator ADL5375 for quick DAC+IQMOD evaluation. Since AD9139 is a single channel converter, dual AD9139s are used on the board to work as I and Q, which typically applies to the case of wideband applications.
