The TSW3XJ8XEVM is an evaluation module (EVM) designed to evaluate the DAC3XJ8X family of high-
speed, JESD204B interface DACs (DAC37J82, DAC37J84, DAC38J82, DAC38J84) with the TRF3705
quadrature modulator and TRF3722 quadrature modulator with integrated RF synthesizer. The EVM
includes an onboard clocking solution (LMK04828), full power solution, and easy-to-use software GUI and
USB interface.
The TSW3XJ8XEVM is designed to work seamlessly with the TSW14J56EVM, Texas Instruments'
JESD204B pattern generator card, through the High Speed Data Converter Pro (HSDCPro) software tool
for high-speed data converter evaluation. The TSW3XJ8XEVM was also designed to work with many of
the development kits from leading FPGA vendors that contain an FMC connector.
