GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADMV8052-EVALZ is available for evaluating the
ADMV8052 digitally tunable, band-pass filter (BPF). The
ADMV8052-EVALZ incorporates the ADMV8052 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 generator and LDO
regulators allow the ADMV8052 to be powered by either the
5 V USB supply voltage from the PC via the SDP-S or by using
Figure 1.
two external power supplies.
The ADMV8052 is an IC that features a digitally selectable
frequency of operation. The chip features three BPFs that span
from 30 MHz to 520 MHz. The chip can be programmed using a
4-wire serial port interface (SPI), and the SDP-S controller allows
the user to interface with the SPI of the ADMV8052 through
the Analog Devices, Inc., Analysis | Control | Evaluation (ACE)
software.
For full details on the ADMV8052, see the ADMV8052 data
sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with this user
guide when using the ADMV8052-EVALZ.
