EVAL-ADGM3144

製品概要

The user guide describes the EVAL-ADGM3144SDZ for the ADGM3144, a dual-chip, RF switching solution containing a single-pole, four-throw (SP4T), microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) switch, and a control chip co-packaged in a compact, 3.00mm × 3.00mm × 1.50mm, LGA package.

The SP4T switch uses Analog Devices, Inc., MEMS switch technology, providing optimum performance in terms of bandwidth, power handling capability, and linearity for RF applications. The control chip generates the high-voltage signals needed for the MEMS switch and allows the user to control its operation through a simple and flexible complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)/low voltage transistor to transistor logic (LVTTL)-compliant parallel-interface as well as through a serial-peripheral interface (SPI). It is possible to daisy-chain multiple ADGM3144 devices together to enable the configuration of multiple devices with a minimal number of digital lines.

For SPI, the EVAL-ADGM3144SDZ connects to the USB port of a PC through the system demonstration platform (SDP) board. The EVAL-SDP-CB1Z board (SDP-B controller board) is available to order at the Analog Devices website.

The ADGM3144 comes fitted with connectors for RF and control signals as well as links to control the operation of the switch and evaluate its performance.
