TEXAS INSTRUMENTS DAC3162EVM Evaluation Module, Digital to Analog Converter, 500MSPS, 12Bit, DAC3162
The is a circuit board that allows designers to evaluate the performance of Texas Instruments dual channel 12bit 500MSPS DAC3162 digital to analog converter DAC with 12byte wide DDR LVDS data input, very low power, size and latency. The evaluation module provides a flexible environment to test the DAC3162 with or without a direct RF TRF370333, a 350MHz to 4GHz quadrature modulator, for upconverting I/Q outputs from the DAC to RF. The The evaluation module can be used along with the TSW3100 pattern generator card to perform a wide range of tests. The TSW3100 generates the test patterns which are fed to the DAC3162 through an LVDS port. The evaluation module has a clock chip, the CDCP1803, which can be used to synchronize the TSW3100 board to evaluation module.
