1.1 Introduction

The DEM-FDA-RUN-EVM evaluation module is designed to evaluate the performance of a fully-differential amplifier (FDA). The EVM interfaces with bench equipment through SMA connectors and banana jacks. The EVM supports a range of supply configurations, including the common TI supply range of 2.7V to 5.5V for FDAs. For higher voltage supplies, please confirm passive component voltage ratings and the absolute maximum supply voltage of the FDA. The PCB is designed for high-speed signals and can accommodate various lab bench measurements for observation and evaluation. The EVM SMA outputs can be connected to a subsequent data converter EVM for system-level evaluation.
