1.1 ADS8900EVM-PDK Kit Features

The ADS8900BEVM-PDK includes the following features:

  • Hardware and software required for diagnostic testing as well as accurate performance evaluation of the ADS8900B ADC. The ability to emulate the ADS8910B and ADS8920B ADCs is also available. This feature allows for diagnostic testing and accurate performance evaluation of these two devices using the ADS8900B.
  • USB powered: no external power supply is required.
  • The PHI controller that provides a convenient communication interface to the ADS8900B ADC over a USB 2.0 (or higher) for power delivery as well as digital input and output.
  • Easy-to-use evaluation software for Microsoft®Windows® 7, Windows® 8, and Windows® 10 operating systems.
  • The software suite includes graphical tools for data capture, histogram analysis, spectral analysis, and linearity analysis. This suite also has a provision for exporting data to a text file for post-processing.
