Analog Devices Inc. AD9656EBZ Evaluation Board

Analog Devices Inc. AD9656EBZ Evaluation Board demonstrates the capabilities of the AD9656 Quad 16-bit ADC. AD9656EBZ provides all of the support circuitry required to operate the devices in their various modes and configurations. It is designed to interface directly with the HSC-ADC-EVALEZ data capture card, allowing designers to download captured data for analysis. The Visual Analog software package, which is used to interface with the device's hardware, allows designers to download captured data for analysis with a user-friendly graphical interface. The SPI Controller software package is also compatible with this hardware, and allows the user to access the SPI programmable features of the AD9656.
