ADS61x9/55xxEVM
This evaluation module (EVM) user's guide gives an overview of the EVM and provides a general
description of the features and functions to be considered while using this module.
This EVM user's guide applies to multiple EVMs:
• ADS61x9 family:
– ADS6128, ADS6148, ADS6129, ADS6149, ADS61B29, ADS61B49
• ADS556x family:
– ADS5560, AD5562
• ADS55xx family:
– ADS5517, ADS5525, ADS5527, ADS5545, ADS5546, ADS5547.
The ADS61x9/55xx EVM provides a platform for evaluating the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) under
various signal, clock, reference, and power supply conditions. Use this document in combination with the
EVM schematic diagram supplied.
The ADS61x9/55xx EVM provides numerous options for providing clock, input frequency and power to the
ADC under evaluation. The quick start procedure describes how to quickly get initial results using the
default configuration of the EVM as it was shipped. The EVM can be put back to default configuration by
setting all jumpers the default values as described in Table 1 . The default configuration of the EVM is for
the Input Frequency (IF) and the clock input is for each to be a single-ended input that is
transformer-coupled to the ADC. The default configuration for the power supply is to provide a single 5V
supply to the red banana jack J7, PWR_IN. The default configuration for the EVM is to control the modes
of operation by jumper settings for parallel input control pins rather than serial SPI control of the register
space. The other modes of operation of the EVM are described in the latter sections of this document.
CAUTION
Voltage Limits: Exceeding the maximum input voltages can damage EVM
components. Undervoltage can cause improper operation of some or all of the
EVM components.
A quick-setup procedure for the default configuration of the ADS61x9/55xxEVM follows:.
1. Verify all jumper settings against the schematic jumper list in Table 1 .
