INTRODUCTION
This Technical Note describes the evaluation board for the
AD7899 high speed, low power, 14-bit A/D converter that
operates from a single 5 V supply. Full data on the AD7899
is available in the AD7899 data sheet available from Analog
Devices and should be consulted in conjunction with this
Technical Note when using the Evaluation Board.
On-board components include an AD780 which is a +2.5V
ultra high precision bandgap reference and an op-amp for the
analog inputs. There are various link options which are
explained in detail on page 2.
Interfacing to this board is through a 96-way connector. This
96-way connector is compatible with the EVAL-BOARD
CONTROLLER which is also available from Analog De-
vices. External sockets are provided for the optional, exter-
nal, CONVST and CLKIN and VDRIVE inputs and the
VIN1-VIN4 inputs.
OPERATING THE AD7899 EVALUATION BOARD
Power Supplies
When using this evaluation board with the EVAL-BOARD
CONTROLLER all supplies are provided from the EVAL-
BOARD CONTROLLER through the 96 way connector.
When using the board as a stand alone unit external supplies
must be provided. This evaluation board has seven power
supply inputs: VDD, AGND, +12V, -12V, AGND, VDRIVE and
DGND. If the evaluation board is used in stand-alone mode
+5V must be connected to the VDD input to supply the
AD7899 VDD pin and the AD780 voltage reference. +12V and
-12V are used to supply the op-amps. The VDRIVE pin can be
driven by a voltage between +3V and +5V allowing the
evaluation board to be connected to both +3V and +5V
systems. The supplies are decoupled to the relevant ground
plane with 10µF tantalum and 0.1µF multilayer ceramic
capacitors at the point where they enter the board. The supply
pins of all the op-amps and reference are also decoupled to
AGND with 10µF tantalum and a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. The
AD7899 AVDD supply pin is decoupled to AGND with 47uF
tantalum and 0.1µF multilayer ceramic capacitors.
Extensive ground planes are used on this board to minimize
the effect of high frequency noise interference. There are two
ground planes, AGND and DGND. These are connected at one
location close to the AD7899.
