2.2 Power Supplies

The EVM requires two separate power rails, VDD1 & VDD2 or AVDD & DVDD. VDD1 is on the high-voltage side of the amplifier coupons and VDD2 is on the low-voltage side of the amplifier coupons. Similarly, AVDD is on the high-voltage side of the modulator coupons and DVDD is on the low-voltage side of the modulator coupons. Effectively, the high-voltage power rails (VDD1 and AVDD) function alike and the low-voltage power rails (VDD2 and DVDD) function alike.
