EVALUATING THE
AD9266/AD9649/AD9629/AD9609
ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTERS

Preface

This QuickStart user guide describes the evaluation boards, 

AD9266-80EBZ

AD9649-80EBZ

,

AD9629-80EBZ

, and 

AD9609-80EBZ

 that are used to evaluate the following Analog Devices, Inc.,

products: 

AD9266

AD9649

AD9629

, and 

AD9609

. These evaluation boards provide the support

circuitry required to operate these devices in their various modes and configurations. The application
software used to interface with the devices is also described.

The 

AD9266

 , 

AD9649

AD9629

, and 

AD9609

 data sheets provide additional information and should

be consulted when using the evaluation board. All documents and software tools are available at

www.analog.com/hsadcevalboard

. For additional information or questions, send an email to

highspeed.converters@analog.com.

Note that, though the 80 MSPS speed grade ADCs and boards are referred to in this document, this
user guide is applicable to the other speed grades, as well.

The 

AD9266

/

AD9649

/

AD9629

/

AD9609

 share ADC core characteristics with the 

AD9269

 family of dual

ADCs. Additional application information can be found in the 

Evaluation Board User Guide for Dual

ADCs of this family

.
