GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ allows quick and easy evaluation of
the ADN4680E 250 Mbps, half-duplex, quad multipoint, low
voltage differential signaling (M-LVDS) transceivers. The EVAL-
ADN4680EEBZ allows the input and output functions of each trans-
ceiver to be exercised without the need for external components.
Subminiature A (SMA) connectors provide convenient connections
for high speed logic and the M-LVDS bus signals. Screw terminal
blocks are available to access power, ground, and digital signals.
Jumper options allow control of each transceivers driver and receiv-
er enable pins, each transceivers fail-safe functionality, and the
global power-down mode.
The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ is optimized for high speed signaling.
The differential M-LVDS signal traces on the board are routed as
a length matched 100 Ω differential pair. The DIx digital input and
ROx receiver output are also length matched and routed with a
controlled 50 Ω impedance to ground. The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ
features a solid ground and power plane for optimum power
integrity.
The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ has a footprint for the ADN4680E trans-
ceivers in a 7 mm × 7 mm, 48-lead LFCSP.
For full details on the ADN4680E, see the ADN4680E data sheet,
which must be used in conjunction with this user guide when using
the EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ.

Jumper Configurations Jumper Position Description Connects the ENP pin of the ADN4680E to VCC, which enables global power-up for the device. The state of each transceiver is determined by the DE1 to DE4 and RE1 to RE4 pins.

Jumper Configurations Jumper Position Description Disconnected Disconnects the DE1 pin from VCC or GND, which allows the DE1 pin to be controlled from the DE1 connection on the P3 screw terminal block. Connects the DE2 pin of the ADN4680E to VCC, which enables the A2 and B2 transmitter if the ENP jumper is connected to VCC.
