MAX19527 Evaluation Kit

19-5522; Rev 0; 9/10

General Description

The MAX19527 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled

and tested circuit board that contains all the components

necessary to evaluate the performance of the MAX19527

50Msps octal, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC).

provides a simple graphical user interface (GUI) for exer-

cising the features of the ADC.

The EV kit accepts single-ended analog inputs from

an analog signal source and provides an on-board

circuit that transforms the analog single-ended signal

into a differential signal. The ADC digital LVDS outputs

can be captured easily with Maxim’s data converter

evaluation platform (DCEP). The EV kit operates from

a single 3.3V power supply and provides on-board

regulation for the analog, digital, and logic circuitries.
