User's Guide SLAU237A – May 2008 – Revised April 2009 ADS62PXXEVM Overview This user’s guide gives a general overview of the evaluation module (EVM) and provides a general description of the features and functions to be considered while using this module. This manual is applicable to the ADS62P42/43/44/45/48/49, ADS62P22/23/24/25/28/29 and ADS62C15/17 analog to digital converters (ADC), which will be collectively referred to as ADS62PXX.
Circuit Description www.ti.com Circuit Description Schematic Diagram The schematic diagram for the this EVM is attached at the end of this document. See the schematic or relevant section of this user's guide before changing any jumpers. ADC Circuit Function Selection of various modes of operation of the ADS62PXX EVM is most often controlled by jumpers on the EVM, either by placing shunts on 0.025-inch square jumper posts or by installation of surface mount 0Ω...
Circuit Description www.ti.com Figure 2. ADS62PXX Surface Jumpers 2.2.1 ADC Operational Mode By default, the ADC is configured to operate in parallel-mode operation, since jumper (JP11) asserts a 3.3V state to the ADC reset pin. Consequently, the SW1 reset pushbutton must be pressed only when the device is configured in serial operation mode.
Circuit Description www.ti.com Figure 3. ADS62PXXEVM Power Distribution 2.2.2 EVM Power Connections Power is supplied to the EVM through banana jacks. From this input power, several different ways of delivering power to the ADC and other EVM functions are available. Figure 3 shows a simplified representation of the power options available for the ADS62PXXEVM.
Circuit Description www.ti.com 2.2.2.3 Power Supply Option 3 Option 3 is used to evaluate ADC performance using an isolated AVDD and DVDD power supply for current-consumption measurements. This option must be used with caution, because reversing the power supply or connecting to the wrong connector can damage the EVM. One common use of this option is to measure the separate current consumption of the relative supplies under particular operating conditions.

Circuit Description www.ti.com Alternatively, the clock may be supplied by an onboard VCXO and CDCE72010 clock buffer. The CDCE72010 Clock Buffer has been factory programmed to output a clock to the ADC that is 1/4 the rate of the on-board VCXO. While using this clock option, a separate 20MHz reference clock must be supplied to the CDCE72010 by way of the Clock Input SMA connector J19 (Surface jumper SJP4 should be shorted to position 2-3 for this case).
Circuit Description www.ti.com Figure 4. CDCE72010 EEPROM Configuration Block Diagram 2.2.4.3 Clock Option 3 Option 3 is used for a differential LVPECL clock. This configuration eliminates the need for a crystal filter. It uses the same EEPROM configuration as Option 2, but in this case, the ADC clock pins are connected to Y1N and Y1P.
TI ADC SPI Control Interface www.ti.com TI ADC SPI Control Interface This section describes the software features of the EVM kit. The TI ADC SPI control software provides full control of the SPI interface, allowing users to write to any of the ADC registers found in the data sheet. For most ADS62PXX performance evaluations, users do not need to use the TI SPI control software.
TI ADC SPI Control Interface www.ti.com Figure 6. Window Logo Testing Figure 7. Hardware Device Manager Setting Up the EVM for ADC SPI Control Users who wish to use the ADC SPI interface must supply 5 VDC to P5, which provides power to the USB circuit.
TI ADC SPI Control Interface www.ti.com Using the TI ADC SPI Interface Software Once the software is installed and the USB cable is connected, three primary modes of operating the software are available: SPI Register Writes, SPI Register Write Using a Script File, and ADS62PXX Frequently Used Registers.
TI ADC SPI Control Interface www.ti.com 3.3.1 SPI Register Writes The most basic mode of operation allows full control of writing to individual register addresses. From the tabs at the top of the interface screen (Figure 8), select the ADS62PXX ADC. Next, type the Address Bytes(s) in hexadecimal (hex) and Data Byte(s) in hex, which can be found in the device data sheet.
Connecting to FPGA Platforms www.ti.com Connecting to FPGA Platforms The ADS62PXX EVM provides several connection options to use the EVM with various FPGA development platforms and FPGA-based capture boards. The ADC features two output options, a DDR LVDS which interfaces with a TSW1200 capture card, and a CMOS output which interfaces with a TSW1100 capture card.
Connecting to FPGA Platforms www.ti.com 4.1.1 Quick-Test Results The user can make the jumper setting as mentioned in Table 1. In this configuration, the EVM uses an external clock source from J19 and a direct input signal J6 (Channel A) or J3 (Channel B) to the ADC. This setup uses Power Option 2 (Table 3), Analog Input Option 1...
Connecting to FPGA Platforms www.ti.com 4.1.2 Test Result With Onboard VCXO and Clock Through Crystal Filter This test uses the VCXO of frequency 983.04 MHz. This setup uses the Power Option 2 (Table 3), Analog Input Option 1 (Table 5), and Clock Option 2 (Table 7).
Connecting to FPGA Platforms www.ti.com 4.1.3 Test Result With Onboard VCXO and Differential LVPECL Clock For the same setup as explained in the previous section, when Clock Option 3 (Table 7) was used, the FFT was captured as shown in Figure 12.
ADC Evaluation www.ti.com ADC Evaluation This section describes how to set up a typical ADC evaluation system that is similar to what TI uses to perform testing for data-sheet generation. Consequently, the information in this section is generic in nature and is applicable to all high-speed, high-resolution ADC evaluations.
ADC Evaluation www.ti.com Coherent Input Frequency Selection Typical ADC analysis requires users to collect the resulting time-domain data and perform a Fourier transform to analyze the data in the frequency domain. A stipulation of the Fourier transform is that the signal must be continuous-time;...
Physical Description www.ti.com Physical Description This section describes the physical characteristics and PCB layout of the EVM. PCB Layout The EVM is constructed on a four-layer, 0.062-inch thick PCB using FR-4 material. The individual layers are shown in Figure 13 through Figure 18.
