2 Hardware

Two bench power supplies are required to power the AFE79xxEVM and the TSW14J58 EVM. A PC to program the EVM and capture card is required. See Section 2.1 for more information. All lab equipment requirements (such as signal source, signal analyzer, and so forth) are left to the users' discretion.

Note: Typically, the bench power supply with rating of 5.5V powers the AFE79xx EVM. The nominal EVM power supply voltage is 5V. The additional 0.5V overhead is added to compensate for the power cable loss as the AFE79xx EVM and the TSW14J58 to be configured to full operating mode to accommodate the voltage drop associated with power cable loss.
