ADS5463EVM

EVALUATION MODULE, ADC.

The ADS5463 EVM provides a flexible means of evaluating the ADS5463 in a number of modes of operation. The ADS5463 device is a 12bit, 500/550MSPS analog to digital converter (ADC) that operates from both a 5V supply and 3.3V supply, while providing LVDS compatible digital outputs. The ADS5463 input buffer isolates the internal switching of the on board track and hold (T&H) from disturbing the signal source while providing a high impedance input. Two analog inputs to the ADC are provided via external SMA connectors. One input path uses a pair of THS9001 amplifiers, while the other input is ac coupled. In both cases, the user supplies a single ended input, which is converted into a differential signal. With the supplied Logic analyzer breakout board, the ADC LVDS output can be directly captured using either an Agilent E5405A or Tektronix P6980 touchless probe.
