1.1 Introduction

The ADC3669EVM-DC allows for evaluation of all the devices in the ADC3669 family, as the devices are all pin-to-pin compatible. The ADC3669EVM-DC is populated with an ADC3669, which can be configured to emulate the other variants in the device family. These devices include:

  • ADC3669 (dual channel, 16-bit, 500MSPS)
  • ADC3668 (dual channel, 16-bit, 250MSPS)
  • ADC3649 (dual channel, 14-bit, 500MSPS)
  • ADC3648 (dual channel, 14-bit, 250MSPS)
  • ADC3569 (single channel, 16-bit, 500MSPS)
  • ADC3568 (single channel, 16-bit, 250MSPS)
  • ADC3549 (single channel, 14-bit, 500MSPS)
  • ADC3548 (single channel, 14-bit, 250MSPS)

The EVM is configured to receive external single-ended analog inputs, or differential analog inputs as the EVM includes frontend circuitry with the LMH5401 fully differential amplifier. The sample clock is sourced externally and is single-ended.

For data capture, the ADC3669EVM-DC is paired with the TSWDC155EVM. The TSWDC155EVM is an FPGA data capture card which features the AMD Artix-7 FPGA. The ADC data, captured by the FPGA, is then transferred to the PC and displayed in the HSDC Pro capture software.
