  • ACE software interface for SPI control

Product Details

The ADMV8502-EVALZ is available for evaluating the ADMV8502 digitally tunable, band-pass filter (BPF). The ADMV8502-EVALZ incorporates the ADMV8502 chip, as well as a negative voltage generator, low dropout (LDO) regulators, and an interface to the EVAL-SDP-CS1Z (SDP-S) system demonstration platform (SDP) to allow simple and efficient evaluation. The negative voltage generator and LDO regulators allow the ADMV8502 to be powered by either the 5 V USB supply voltage from the PC via the SDP-S or by using two external power supplies.

The ADMV8502 is an IC that features a digitally selectable frequency of operation. The chip can be programmed using a 4-wire serial peripheral interface (SPI), and the SDP-S controller allows the user to interface with the SPI of the ADMV8502 through the Analog Devices, Inc., Analysis, Control Evaluation (ACE) software.

For full details on the ADMV8502, see the ADMV8502 data sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when using the ADMV8502-EVALZ.
