1 Introduction

The ADC354xEVM is an evaluation board used to evaluate the ADC354x analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Texas Instruments. The ADC354xEVM is a single-channel, 14-bit ADC that can operate up to 10, 25, 65, or 125 Mega-samples per second (MSPS) for the ADC3541, ADC3542, ADC3543, and ADC3544 respectively. The output data is transmitted over 1.8-V CMOS logic.

  • Transformer and FDA coupled analog inputs
  • Transformer coupled or singled ended clock inputs
  • INA226 current shunt monitors for evaluating power consumption
  • FMC connector to easily interface with popular FPGA evaluation boards
  • Device register programming through USB connector and FTDI USB-to-SPI translator

The TSW1400EVM captures the CMOS output data, and uploads to a connected PV through a USB interface for analysis. The High-Speed Data Converter Pro (HSDC Pro) software on the PC communicates with the hardware and processes the data.
