Supply Voltage The dc power supply requirement for this DAC7554 EVM (VDD) is selectable between 3.3 V and 5 V via W1 jumper header. The 3.3 V comes from J6-8 or J5-1 (if installed), and the 5 V comes from J6-3 or J5-3 terminals (if installed), when plugged in via 5-6k interface card or the HPA449.
The headers J2 and P2 are the connectors provided to allow the control signals and data required to interface a host processor or waveform generator to the DAC7554 EVM using a custom built cable. An adapter interface card (5-6k adapter interface) is also available to fit and mate with TI’s TMS320C5000™...
EVM. The list of components used on the module is also included in this section. PCB Layout The DAC7554 EVM is designed to preserve the performance quality of the DAC, device under test, as specified in the data sheet. Carefully analyzing the EVM’s physical restrictions and the given or known elements that contributes to the EVM’s performance degradation is the key to a successful design...
PCB Design and Performance The DAC7554 EVM board is constructed on a two-layer printed-circuit board using a copper-clad FR-4 laminate material. The printed-circuit board has a dimension of 43,1800 mm (1.7000 inch) × 81,2800 mm (3.200 inch), and the board thickness is 1,5748 mm (0.0620 inch). Figures 2 through 6 show the individual artwork layers.

This section covers in detail the operation of the EVM to provide guidance to the user in evaluating the onboard DAC and how to interface the EVM to a specific host processor. Refer to the DAC7554 data sheet, SLAS399A, for information about its serial interface and other related topics.
EVM Stacking The stacking of EVM is possible if there is a need to evaluate two DAC7554 to yield a total of eight channel output. A maximum of two EVMs are allowed since the output terminal, J4, dictates the number of DAC channels that can be connected without colliding.
This is the default configuration that the EVM is set to from the factory. The buffered output configuration can be used to prevent loading the DAC7554 though it may present some slight distortion because of the feedback resistor and capacitor. The user can tailor the feedback circuit to closely match their desired wave shape by simply desoldering R7 and C11 and replacing it with the desired values.
Negative supply rail of the output operational-amplifier, U2, is tied to AGND for unipolar operation. FSX signal from J2-7 is routed through to control the SYNC function of the DAC7554. Normally used for DSP operation. CS signal from J2-1 is routed through to control the SYNC function of the DAC7554. Normally used for µC operation.
