Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-ADN4680E Evaluation Kit

Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-ADN4680E Evaluation Kit is designed to quickly and easily demonstrate the ADN4680E Quad M-LVDS Transceivers. The ADN4680E Quad M-LVDS Transceivers are driver and receiver pairs that can operate at up to 125MHz or 250Mbps nonreturn to zero (NRZ). The driver and receiver of each transceiver are connected in a half-duplex configuration. This configuration enables each transceiver to be configured via independent enable pins for either sending or receiving data. The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ is optimized for high-speed signaling.

The ADI EVAL-ADN4680E Evaluation Kit offers differential M-LVDS signal traces on the board routed as a length-matched 100Ω differential pair. The DIx digital input and ROx receiver output are length matched and routed with a controlled 50Ω impedance ground. The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ provides a solid ground and power plane for optimum power integrity.

The EVAL-ADN4680EEBZ has a footprint for the ADN4680E transceivers in a 7mm × 7mm, 48-lead LFCSP.
