Product Details

The EVAL-AD4080-FMCZ is designed to demonstrate the performance of the AD4080 analog‐to‐digital converter (ADC) and provide access to a limited set of features from the chip in the ACE Software environment. The EVAL-AD4080-FMCZ evaluation kit supports the following AD4080 features:

Low voltage digital signaling (LVDS) data output interface.
ADC configuration via serial peripheral interface (SPI).
Internal or external generation of 1.1 V regulated supply rails.
Sampling rate capability between 1.25 MSPS and up to 40 MSPS, depending on the specific ADC.

The EVAL-AD4080-FMCZ evaluation board was designed for use with the Digilent ZedBoard via the field programmable gate array (FPGA) mezzanine card (FMC) connector. The ZedBoard uses a Xilinx Zynq7000 system on chip (SoC) that runs Analog Devices, Inc., Kuiper Linux and LIBIIO included on the SD card supplied in the evaluation board kit to facilitate communication with the EVALAD4080-FMCZ, enabling ADC configuration and data capture. The ZedBoard also provides the communication link to the host PC and the ACE Software plug-in.
