GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This user guide describes the AD9644 and AD9641 evaluation
boards (AD9644-155KITZ, AD9644-80KITZ, AD9641-80KITZ),
which provide all of the support circuitry required to operate the
AD9644 and AD9641 in the available modes and configurations.
The application software used to interface with the device is
also described.
The AD9644 and AD9641 data sheets provide additional infor-
mation and should be consulted when using the evaluation
board. For additional information or questions, send an email
to highspeed.converters@analog.com.
The JESD204A specification can be downloaded from the JEDEC
website. The download is free, but registration is required.
