EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
Using an External Digital Interface
The EVAL-ADA4570SDZ facilitates a configuration option where
the user can connect an external microcontroller or field program-
mable gate array (FPGA) to the on-board

to power the AD7266 ADC and the
interface to the AD7266 ADC. This configuration allows users to
monitor the digitized output of the ADA4570 with a user preferred
embedded hardware platform. The pinout of Connector P2 is listed
in
Table
2. The SDP controller board supports a maximum SPI
speed of 10 MHz, which limits the sampling rate of the AD7266
ADC to 625 kSPS. This configuration can be used to facilitate data
acquisition with a faster sampling rate up to 2 MSPS.

Direct Analog Interface with the ADA4570
The EVAL-ADA4570SDZ facilitates a configuration option where
the user can connect an external ADC to the
signals (see
