EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
POWER SUPPLIES
The EVAL-MB-LV-SDZ motherboard supports using single and
dual power supplies.
The
EVAL-AD5142DBZ
evaluation board can be powered either
from the SDP port or externally by the J1 and J2 connectors, as
described in Table 1.
All supplies are decoupled to ground using 10 µF tantalum and
0.1 µF ceramic capacitors.

Link Options
Several link and switch options are incorporated in the EVAL-
MB-LV-SDZ motherboard and should be set up before using
the board. Table 2 describes the positions of the links to control
the evaluation board via the SDP board using a PC. The
functions of these link options are described in detail in Table 3
through Table 6.
