MAXIM MAX1011 Evaluation Kit User Guide
The document provides a general description and quick start instructions for the MAX1011 EV kit. It details how to connect power supplies (VCC, VCCO, VTUNE) and signal sources to verify proper board operation using a logic analyzer.
Detailed sections cover jumper configurations for gain selection and offset correction, analog input requirements, and voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) operation. The guide also explains how to modify the kit to accept an external clock source instead of the internal VCO.

Questions answered in these manuals
How do I select the ADC full-scale gain range?
Use jumper JU5 to manually select the desired gain range: Low-gain (500mVp-p), Mid-gain (250mVp-p), or High-gain (125mVp-p).
How can I modify the kit for an external clock source?
Remove components like the varactor diode and inductor, replace resistors with 49.9Ω values, add a BNC connector at J2, and connect an external clock signal to the CLOCK OVERDRIVE pad.
What is the maximum sampling rate of the MAX1011?
The MAX1011 operates at sampling rates up to 90Msps.
What are the available input full-scale ranges for the MAX1011?
The device supports user-selectable input full-scale ranges of 125mVp-p, 250mVp-p, or 500mVp-p.
What is the maximum sampling rate of the MAX1011?
The MAX1011 can sample at rates up to 90 Msps.
What supply voltages does the MAX1011 require?
It requires a +5 V analog supply and a +3.3 V digital supply.
