The MAX1002/MAX1003 evaluation kits (EV kits) simplify evaluation of the 60Msps MAX1002 and 90Msps MAX1003 dual, 6-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The kits include the basic components necessary to operate the on-chip oscillator as a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). Each board can also be easily modified to accommodate an external clocking source. Connectors for power supplies, analog inputs, and digital outputs simplify connections to the device. The PC board features an optimized layout to ensure the best possible dynamic performance. The EV kits include a MAX1002 or MAX1003.
The document serves as a quick start guide for the MAX1002/MAX1003 Evaluation Kits (EV kits). These fully assembled and tested kits are designed to simplify the evaluation of the 60Msps MAX1002 and 90Msps MAX1003 dual, 6-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The guide outlines the necessary steps for connecting power supplies, configuring jumpers for gain selection, and setting up analog inputs.
| Resolution | 6-bit |
|---|---|
| Analog Input Frequency | 20MHz |
| VCC Supply Requirement | +5V at about 65mA |
| MAX1003 Digital Output Supply | +3.3V |
| MAX1002 Digital Output Supply | +5V |
For DC-coupled applications, install shorting blocks on jumpers JU3, JU4 for the I channel and JU8, JU9 for the Q channel.
A nominal VTUNE control voltage of about 4V sets the ADC sampling rate to either 60Msps or 90Msps.
