Product Details

The EVAL-AD7386-4FMCZ is a full featured evaluation board that evaluates all features of the AD7386-4 analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The evaluation board can be controlled by the EVAL-SDPCH1Z via the 160-way system demonstration platform (SDP) connector, J4. The EVAL-SDP-CH1Z board controls the evaluation board through the USB port of a PC using the analysis, control, evaluation (ACE) software, which is available for download from the ACE software page.

Complete specifications for the AD7386-4 is provided in the AD7386-4 data sheet. Consult these specifications in conjunction with this user guide when using the evaluation board. Full details on the EVAL-SDP-CH1Z are available on the SDP-H1 product page. The comprehensive ACE user guide is available on the ACE software page.

The EVAL-AD7386-4FMCZ can evaluate the AD7387-4 and the AD7388-4 by using the AD738x-4 ACE plugin found on the EVALAD7386- 4FMCZ product page. The only difference is the number of SCLKs that clock out the conversion results, which is dependent on the resolution and throughput rate for each generic.

Figure 1 shows the typical setup of the EVAL-AD7386-4FMCZ board. The setup for the EVAL-AD7386-4FMCZ board is the same as the EVAL-AD7380-4FMCZ setup.
