Product Details
The EV-ADuM7801-8FMCZ is a fully-featured evaluation board that allows the user to evaluate all features of the ADuM7801 isolated ADC with Σ-Δ modulated bit stream output. The ZedBoard Zynq-7000 controller board controls the EV-ADuM7801-8FMCZ by the J9 connector and through the USB port of a PC using the ACE Software. The ACE Software is available to download on the ACE Software page.
On-board components include an isolated, 5kV, isoPower® DC-to- DC converter (the ADuM6028-5), a 5V, low noise, low dropout (LDO) regulator (the ADP7104), and a 200mA, 40V, low noise, LDO regulator (the ADP7142).
This user guide explains how to use the EV-ADuM7801-8FMCZ to evaluate the ADuM7801. The ADuM7801 is a high-performance isolated analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a second-order Σ-Δ modulator that converts an analog input signal into a high speed, single-bit data stream, with on-chip digital isolation based on Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology. The device operates from a 4.0V to 5.5V power supply range (high-side supply voltage, VDD1) and accepts a pseudodifferential input signal of ±250mV (±320mV full-scale). The pseudodifferential input is ideally suited for shunt-resistor current monitoring in high voltage applications where galvanic isolation is required.
The analog input is continuously sampled by a high-performance analog modulator and converted to a pulse density modulation digital output stream with a data rate of up to 25MHz. The analog input can be reconstructed with an appropriate sinc3 digital filter to achieve an 88dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at 97.6kSPS with a 256 decimation rate and a 25MHz input clock. The serial input and output operates from a 3V to a 5.5V supply (controller-side supply voltage, VDD2).
The serial interface is digitally isolated. The on-chip isolation provides performance characteristics superior to alternatives, such as optocoupler devices, due to high speed CMOS technology combined with monolithic transformer technology. The ADuM7801
Full specifications on the ADuM7801 are available in the ADuM7801 has an operating temperature range of −40°C to +125°C.
