GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADMV8513-EVALZ is available for evaluating the ADMV8513
digitally tunable, band-pass filter (BPF). The ADMV8513-EVALZ
incorporates the ADMV8513 chip, as well as a negative voltage
generator, low dropout (LDO) regulators, and an interface to the
EVAL-SDP-CS1Z (SDP-S) system demonstration platform (SDP) to
allow simple and efficient evaluation. The negative voltage genera-
tor and LDO regulators allow the ADMV8513 to be powered by
either the 5 V USB supply voltage from the PC via the SDP-S or by
using two external power supplies.
The ADMV8513 is an IC that features a digitally selectable frequen-
cy of operation. The chip can be programmed using a 4-wire serial
peripheral interface (SPI), and the SDP-S controller allows the user
to interface with the SPI of the ADMV8513 through the Analog
Devices, Inc.,
Analysis, Control Evaluation
For full details on the ADMV8513, see the ADMV8513 data sheet,
which must be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when
using the ADMV8513-EVALZ.

    User Guide EVAL-ADMV8513 EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE INSTALLING THE ACE SOFTWARE, ADMV8513 PLUG-INS, AND DRIVERS The ADMV8513-EVALZ uses the Analog Devices Analysis|Con- trol|Evaluation (ACE) software. For instructions on how to install and use the ACE software, go to www.analog.com/ACE. If the ACE software is already installed on the PC, ensure that the installed ACE software is the latest version, as listed on the ACE software page.

    Label Function Use the CONFIGURATION section to initialize the ADMV8513-EVALZ. Load Settings from CSV: click the … button to select which .csv file to load into the CONFIGURATION section. Check to Load Settings: once a file is selected, select this check box to load the .csv file contents into the CONFIGURATION section. Note that a check mark does not appear when the check box is selected.
  • Page 7 CSB_AUX: this pin is only available in SFL mode. Selecting the check box brings the CSB_AUX pin high, which advances the internal state machine pointer to the next LUT. If an external waveform generator is connected to the CSB_EXT port on the ADMV8513-EVALZ, the CSB_AUX pin has no effect, and the CSB_EXT port takes precedence.
