GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The evaluation board incorporates the ADMV4630, low dropout
(LDO) regulators, and the
board to allow simplified, efficient evaluation of the ADMV4630. The
SDP-S
controller board allows the configuration of the ADMV4630
register map through the
ware. The LDO regulators allow the EVAL-ADMV4630Z to be pow-
ered by a 5 V single supply.
The ADMV4630 is a Ku-band upconverter optimized for various
satellite communication (SATCOM) user terminals operating in the
14.0 GHz to 14.5 GHz frequency range. The ADMV4630 upconvert-
er comes in a compact, thermally enhanced, 6 mm × 6 mm, 40-lead
frame chip scale package (LFCSP). The ADMV4630 operates over
the −40°C to +85°C case temperature range.
For full details on the ADMV4630, see the
which must be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when
using the EVAL-ADMV4630Z.
