Summary of Contents for Texas Instruments ADC364xEVM

  • Page 1: Table Of Contents

    Throughout this document, the terms evaluation board, evaluation module, and EVM are synonymous with the ADC364xEVM. In the following sections of this document, the ADC364x evaluation board is referred to as the EVM and the ADC364x device is referred to as the ADC device.
  • Page 2: Introduction

    The ADC364xEVM is an evaluation board used to evaluate the ADC364x analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Texas Instruments. The ADC364xEVM is a dual-channel, 14-bit ADC that can operate up to 125 Mega-samples per second (MSPS). The ADC364x uses a parallel or serial CMOS interface to output the digital data. The serialized CMOS interface supports output rates to 250 Mbps which translates to ~ 30 MSPS (2-wire) to ~ 10 MSPS (0.5-wire) output rates after complex decimation.
