Overview

Product Details

INTRODUCTION

The ADRV904x family evaluation system enables customers to evaluate an ADRV904x device without having to develop custom hardware or software. The system is comprised of an ADRV904x customer evaluation (CE) board and an ADS10-V1EBZ motherboard with accompanying wall adapter power supplies for both. The evaluation software uses the Analysis, Control, Evaluation (ACE) software developed by Analog Devices, Inc., extended by an ADRV904x specific board plugin. This plugin can be run with ACE on a Windows host PC communicating with the ADS10-V1EBZ motherboard using Ethernet. The ADS10-V1EBZ functions as a baseband processor running an application (ADRV904x command server) for controlling and communicating with the ADRV904x device.

This document also serves as a quick startup guide for the ADRV904x configurator, which is built into the ADRV9040 board plugin for ACE. The ADRV904x configurator allows the user to explore various configurations of an ADRV904x device to arrive at a desired use case configuration. The ADRV904x configurator also provides an overview of the frequency responses of the receiver (Rx), transmitter (Tx), and the observation receiver (ORx) datapaths for a chosen configuration.

This user guide details the steps required to install the ADRV904x evaluation software, program an existing use case, and evaluate the ADRV904x transmitter, receiver, and observation receiver datapaths. The configurator sections of this user guide enable the user to generate a new use case and view its corresponding datapath configurations and filter graphs for the ADRV904x. Note that this document updates as the configurator development progresses and as additional functionalities are added to the tool.
