ADC3669 Evaluation Module
Description
The ADC3669EVM is an evaluation module (EVM)
designed to evaluate the ADC3669 family of high-
speed ADCs. The ADC3669EVM is populated with
an ADC3669. The ADC3669 is a 16-bit ADC, dual-
channel ADC with an LVDS interface, and can
operate at samples rates up to 500 MSPS. The
ADC3669EVM allows for evaluation of all device
speed grades, and number of channels.
Get Started
1. Order the EVM from ti.com (ADC3669EVM).
2. Download the latest revision of the data sheet
(SBASAL3).
3. Download the latest software.
4. Download the comprehensive reference design
files from the tools page of the EVM
(ADC3669EVM).

    The specifications for the ADC3669 can be found in the device’s data sheet (SBASAL3). 1.4 Device Information The ADC3669 can also be configured to disable the channel B input to simulate the single channel device. The EVM is configured to receive external single-ended analog inputs as the EVM includes baluns for single-ended to differential conversion.
