This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the ADS8900B evaluation module
(EVM) performance demonstration kit (PDK). This kit is an evaluation platform for the ADS8900B, which is
a 20-bit, 1-MSPS, fully-differential input, successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) that features an enhanced serial multiSPI™ digital interface. The EVM-PDK eases the
evaluation of the ADS8900B device with hardware, software, and computer connectivity through the
universal serial bus (USB) interface. This user's guide includes complete circuit descriptions, schematic
diagrams, and a bill of materials.

  • Page 4: Overview

    Overview The ADS8900BEVM-PDK is a platform for evaluating the performance of the ADS8900B SAR ADC, which is a fully-differential input, 20-bit, 1-MSPS device. The evaluation kit includes the ADS8900BEVM board and the precision host interface (PHI) controller board that enables the accompanying computer software to communicate with the ADC over USB for data capture and analysis.

    ADC inputs dynamically low impedance. Thus, the evaluation board has low impedance on board drivers that maintain ADC performance with maximum loading at the full device throughput of 1-MSPS for signal.
