EVALUATION BOARD GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9260 Evaluation Board is designed to provide an easy
and flexible method of exercising the AD9260 and demonstrate
its performance to data sheet specifications. The evaluation
board is fabricated in four layers: the component layer, the
ground layer, the power layer, and the solder layer. The board is
clearly labeled to provide easy identification of components.
Ample space is provided near the analog and clock inputs to
provide additional or alternate signal conditioning.
FEATURES AND USER CONTROLS
Jumper Controlled Mode/OSR Selection
The choice of Mode/OSR can easily be varied by jumping either
JP1, JP2, JP3, or JP4 as illustrated in Figure 78 within the
Mode/OSR Control Block. To obtain the desired mode, refer to
Table 16.

Selectable Power Bias
The power consumption of the AD9260 can be scaled down if
the user is able to operate the device at a lower clock frequency.
As illustrated in Figure 78, pin cups are provided for the
external resistor (R2) tied to the BIAS pin of the AD9260.
Table 17 defines the recommended resistance for a given clock
speed to obtain the desired power consumption.
Table 17. Evaluation Board Recommended Resistance Value
for External Bias Resistor
Resistor Value Clock Speed (max) Power Consumption
2 kΩ 20 MHz 585 mW
4 kΩ 10 MHz 325 mW
8 kΩ 5 MHz 200 mW
16 kΩ 2.5 MHz 150 mW
Data Interfacing Controls
The data interfacing controls (RESETB, CSB, READ, DAV) are
all accessible via SMA connectors (J2–J5) as illustrated in
Figure 78 within the data interfacing control block. The
RESETB, CSB, and READ connections are each supplied with
two sets or resistor pin cups to allow the user to pull-up or pull-
down each signal to a fixed state. R5, R6, and R30 will terminate
to ground, while R7, R28, and R29 terminate to DRVDD. The
DAV and OTR signals are also directly connected to the data
output connector P1. All interfacing controls are buffered
through the CMOS line driver 74HC541.
Buffered Output Data
The twos complement output data is buffered through two
CMOS noninverting bus transceivers (U2 and U3) and made
available at pin connector P1 as illustrated in Figure 78 within
the data output block.
Jumper Controlled Reference Source
The choice of reference for the AD9260 can easily be varied
between 1.0 V, 2.5 V or external by using jumpers JP5, JP6, JP7,
and JP9 as illustrated in Figure 78 within the reference
configuration block. To obtain the desired reference, see
Table 18.
