Product Details

Analog Devices offers two board architectures for evaluation of the ADAF1080.

  • The EVAL-ADAF1080SDZ enables the user to simply and quickly achieve precise measurement of magnetic flux density using the high performance of the ADAF1080 and is compatible with the SDP-B controller board. The EVAL-ADAF1080SDZ features the ADAF1080 as a precision field sensor and a graphical user interface (GUI) is available to the user for quick evaluation.
  • The EVAL-ADAF1080-3EBZ or EVAL-ADAF1080-6EBZ includes an on-board low dropout (LDO) regulator, multiple ADAF1080 devices, and a summing amplifier to output a single analog voltage. Analog Devices, Inc., offer two versions of this evaluation board. The EVAL-ADAF1080-3EBZ has three sensors for a cost-effective, current-measurement solution, and the EVAL-ADAF1080-6EBZ has six sensors for cases where higher accuracy and resistance to interference is required.

The ADAF1080 is a single-axis, high-precision, low-field magnetic sensor with integrated signal conditioning. The device incorporates a low-field anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor with an integrated signal conditioning amplifier, a flip coil with a driver and a calibration coil with a driver for measuring magnetic fields precisely. The ADAF1080 enables, low-noise, wide dynamic range measurement with zero electrical offset, wide bandwidth, and low harmonic distortions with integrated functions.
