REQUIRED SOFTWARE Analog Devices ADF5904 Software

GENERAL DESCRIPTION The EV-ADF5904SD2Z evaluation board allows the user to evaluate the performance of the ADF5904 24 GHz receiver downconverter. Figure 1 shows the board, which contains the ADF5904, five high frequency SMA connectors for the local oscillator (LO) input, four receiver (Rx) inputs, eight SMA connectors for the baseband outputs, banana connectors for power supply, and a connector for serial interface.

The evaluation kit also contains software that is compatible with Windows® XP and later versions to allow easy programming of the device.

This evaluation board requires an EVAL-SDP-CS1Z SDP-S board (not supplied with the kit). The SDP-S board allows software programming of the ADF5904 device.

Full specifications on the ADF5904 are available in the product data sheet, which should be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when working with the evaluation board.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE The evaluation board requires an SDP-S motherboard to program the device. The SDP-S board is not included and must be purchased separately. The EV-ADF5904SD2Z schematics are shown in Figure 5 to Figure 9. The top layer and assembly layout are shown in Figure 10.

POWER SUPPLIES The evaluation board is powered via one external supply, 5 V connected as described in the Quick Start Guide section.

INPUT SIGNALS The LO input pin and the Rx input pins on the ADF5904 contain a dc bias voltage; the inputs must be ac-coupled to the evaluation board.

OUTPUT SIGNALS The baseband outputs from the ADF5904 contain dc bias voltages and are available on the J3 to J11 output SMAs.

Table 1. Baseband Output Mapping Rx Input Baseband Outputs RF1IN J3, J4 RF2IN J6, J7 RF3IN J8, J9 RF4IN J10, J11

DEFAULT OPERATION All components necessary for ADF5904 operation are inserted on the board.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE The control software for the EV-ADF5904SD2Z is included in the evaluation kit on a CD. To install the software, follow the on-screen instructions.

To run the software, click the ADF5904 file on the desktop or from the Start menu.

In the Select Device and Connection tab, select the device and the connection method, and click Connect.

Confirm that Analog Devices Eval Board connected is displayed at the bottom left of the window (see Figure 2). Otherwise, the software has no connection to the evaluation board.

Note that, when connecting the board, it takes approximately 5 sec to 10 sec for the status label to change.
