Product Details

The EVAL-ADG5401FEBZ evaluation board for the ADG5401F features one SPST switch channel and one feedback switch channel. The ADG5401F SPST switch has overvoltage detection and protection circuitry on the source pins (S and SFB) on Terminal J2 and is protected against signals up to ±60 V in the powered state and unpowered state.

Figure 1 shows the EVAL-ADG5401FEBZ in a typical evaluation setup. The ADG5401F is soldered to the center of the EVALADG5401FEBZ, and two wire screw terminals (J2 and J3) are provided to connect to each device source pin (S and SFB) and drain pin (D and DFB). The J1 screw terminal powers the device through three EVAL-ADG5401FEBZ supply pins (VDD, GND and VSS), and a fourth pin (EXT_VL) provides a user defined digital voltage of 1.8 V to 5 V, if required. Alternatively, a low dropout (LDO) regulator (ADP7142) is provided for 5 V digital voltage control and to supply both light emitting diodes (LEDs) LED1 and LED2, which are mounted to provide visual indication of the fault status of the switch.

For full specifications on the ADG5401F, see the ADG5401F data sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with the user guide when using the EVAL-ADG5401FEBZ.
