GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The EV-ADF5355SD1Z evaluates the performance of the ADF5355
frequency synthesizer with integrated VCO for phase-locked
loops (PLLs). A photograph of the evaluation board is shown in
Figure 1. The evaluation board contains the ADF5355 synthesizer
with integrated VCO, a differential 122.88 MHz reference TCXO, a
loop filter, a USB interface, power supply connectors, and sub-
miniature Version A (SMA) connectors. A USB cable is included to
connect the board to a PC USB port.
For easy programming of the synthesizer, download the
Windows®-based software from www.analog.com/ADF5355.
This board requires an SDP-S (shown in Figure 1, but not supplied
with the kit). The SDP-S allows software programming of the
ADF5355 device.
