Output Signals

The default setup uses the Analog Devices high speed converter evaluation platform (

HSC-ADC-EVALDZ

) for data capture. The serial LVDS outputs from the ADC are routed to J1 and J2

using 100Ω differential traces. For more information on the data capture board and its optional
settings, visit

.

Jumper Settings

Set the jumper settings/link options on the evaluation board for the required operating modes before
powering on the board. The functions of the jumpers are described in Table 1. Figure 2 shows the
default jumper settings.

Table 1. Jumper Settings

Jumper Description

J204

Use this jumper to power down the ADC. Using the SPI, the PDWN pin can be configured to
invoke the STBY (standby) function instead of power down.

P1

This jumper sets the ADC for SPI communications with the 

HSC-ADC-EVALDZ

.

Connect Pin 1 to Pin 2 for SDIO, Pin 4 to Pin 5 for SCLK, Pin 8 to Pin 9 for CSB1 and Pin 11 to
Pin 12 for CSB2.

J804

This jumper enables the on-board crystal oscillator. Remove this jumper (and optimally C810)
if an external off-board clock source is used.

J202

This jumper selects between internal V

REF

 and external V

REF

.

To choose the ADC's internal 1V reference, connect Pin 3 (DUT_SENSE) to Pin 5 (GND) as
shown in Figure 2.
To use the on-board 

AD822

 buffered reference, connect Pin 2 (DUT_SENSE) to Pin 1 (AVDD),

and connect Pin 4 (DUT_VREF) to Pin 6 (EXT_REF). Adjust external VREF to be 1.0V using
potentiometer R202.
To apply a reference voltage from an external off-board source, connect Pin 2 (DUT_SENSE)
to Pin 1 (AVDD) and apply the reference voltage to Pin 4 (DUT_VREF). The AD9681 reference
voltage is specified to be 1.0 V.
