INTRODUCTION
AD9106 EVALUATION BOARD
The AD9106 is a Quad Digital to Analog converter and Waveform Generator. The AD9106-EBZ evaluation board includes a PIC
18F4550 processor programmed to function as a PC USB interface to the SPI port of the device. And an AD9514 clock chip that takes in a
1440Mhz signal from the clock source and provides the CLKP/N input to the AD9106. The EVB runs from a single 5 volt supply. Figure
12 is a photo of the top side of the AD9106 EVB.
AD9106 EVALUATION SOFTWARE GUI
The AD9106 Evaluation Board GUI software (Figure 1 and Figure 2) has a number of tabs. Each tab allows the user to view or manually
program a subset of AD9106 registers and on-chip data RAM. The RAM tab lets the user download vectors to the RAM. The AD9106
evaluation board CD includes RAM vectors for use with example files described below where appropriate. There is a DAC tab for each of
the four AD9106 DACs. The DAC tabs depict the waveform generation signal chain for each DAC. The Register Write Sequence tab is
used to select and write register configuration files to the AD9106. Further details on the evaluation software can be found in AD9106
Evaluation System Notes below.
CONFIGRATION EXAMPLE FILES
This quick start guide describes how to set up and run six configuration examples using the AD9106 control panel GUI software. The
AD9106 evaluation board CD includes the configuration files shown in Table 1
for each example. Configuring and running the examples
is accomplished by downloading these files using the control panel GUI, by following the method described in the Quick Start Procedure
below.
