2.1 Required Equipment

The following equipments are not included in the TRF1108-DAC39RFEVM kit, but are required for evaluation of this product:

  • TSW14J59EVM data capture board and related items
  • High-Speed Data Converter Pro software.
  • PC computer running Microsoft®Windows® 10
  • Low-noise signal generator for DEVCLK (sampling clock). TI recommends the following generators:
    • Rohde & Schwarz® SMA100B
  • Signal-path cables, SMA or BNC (or both SMA and BNC)

By default, the TRF1108-DAC39RFEVM uses LMX1204 clocking chip to distribute the external clock signal to DAC39RF10 and also to LMK04828 to generate necessary clocks needed for the TSW14J59EVM. A few board modifications enables user to test the DAC39RF10 with other clocking options.
