ADS5401EVM

The ADS5401EVM is an evaluation board for ADS5401, a high linearity single channel 12bit, 800Msps analog to digital converter (ADC) easing front end filter design for wide bandwidth receivers. The analog input buffer isolates the internal switching of the on chip track and hold from disturbing the signal source as well as providing a high impedance input. Optionally the output data can be decimated by two. Designed for high SFDR, the ADC has low noise performance and outstanding spurious free dynamic range over a large input frequency range. This EVM is ideally suited for mating with the TSW1400 or TSW1405 capture card for performing a data capture into a capture buffer, uploading the sample data to a PC, performing a fast Fourier transform (FFT), and reporting on signal to noise ratio (SNR), spurious free dynamic range (SFDR), and other performance metrics.
