TSW38J84EVM

DAC38J84 DAC Evaluation Board 2.5GSPS High Speed Data Converter Pro IDE

The Evaluation Module is an evaluation board that allows system designers to evaluate the performance of Texas Instruments" dual transmit signal chain consisting of the DAC38J84, TRF3722, TRF3705, and the LMK04828. For ease of use as a complete dual RF transmit solution the TSW38J84EVM includes the LMK04828 to clock the DAC38J84 digital-to-analog converter DAC and the TRF3722 integrated RF synthesizer and modulator. The TRF3722 is also used as the local oscillator LO source for a second modulator, the TRF3705, to create a compact dual transmit solution. The 4 channels of the DAC38J84 are up-converted using the TRF3722 and TRF3705 to the RF frequency.

The TSW38J84EVM 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 TSW38J84EVM was also designed to work with many of the development kits from leading FPGA vendors that contain an FMC connector.
