The ADRF6720 LO signal can be generated internally via the
on-chip integer-N and fractional-N synthesizers, or externally
via a high frequency, low phase noise LO signal. The internal
integrated synthesizer enables LO coverage from 356.25 MHz to
2855 MHz using the multi-core VCOs. In the case of internal
LO generation or external LO input, quadrature signals are
generated with a divide-by-2 phase splitter. When the
ADRF6720 is operated with an external 1 × LO input, a
polyphase filter generates the quadrature inputs to the mixer.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
routed off chip to the SMA connector labeled LO_OUT+ and
LO_OUT−.
INTRODUCTION
The ADRF6720 evaluation board provides all of the support
circuitry required to operate the ADRF6720 in its various
modes and configurations. Figure 2 shows the typical bench
setup used to evaluate the performance of the ADRF6720.
For internal LO configuration using the on-chip fractional-N
synthesizer, apply a low phase noise reference signal to the
REFIN connector. The PLL reference input can support a wide
frequency range since the divide or multiplication blocks can
be used to increase or decrease the reference frequency to the
desired value before it is passed to the phase frequency detector
(PFD). The integrated synthesizer enables continuous LO
coverage from 356.25 MHz to 2855 MHz.
POWER SUPPLY
The ADRF6720 evaluation board requires a 3.3 V power supply.
Connect the 3.3 V power terminals as like Figure 2.
BASEBAND INPUTS
For optimum performance using an external LO source, drive
the LO inputs LOIN and LOIP differentially. The ADRF6720
evaluation board integrates footprints for both the Mini-Circuits
TC1-1-43A+ balun and the Johanson 2500BL14M050T to
satisfy the wide input frequency range of the external LO inputs.
Unless an ac-coupled balun/transformer is used to generate the
differential LO, the inputs must be ac-coupled. The input
impedance of the differential LO signals is 50 Ω.
Drive the baseband inputs (I+, I−, Q+, and Q−) from a
differential source. Place a shunt 125 Ω external resistor across
the I and Q inputs to match the differential 100 Ω impedance
interface. The nominal drive level used in the evaluation of the
ADRF6720 is 1 V p-p differential (or 500 mV p-p on each pin).
All the baseband inputs must be externally dc biased at 0.5 V.
LO INPUT/OUTPUT
The ADRF6720 offers two alternatives for generating the
differential LO input signal: externally via a high frequency low
phase noise LO signal or internally via the on-chip fractional-N
synthesizer. In either case, the differential LO signal can be
RF (MODULATOR) OUTPUT
The RF output is available at the RF_OUT SMA connector,
which can drive a 50 Ω load.

EVALUATION BOARD CONTROL SOFTWARE
The ADRF6720 evaluation board is configured with a USB
friendly interface to allow programmability of the ADRF6720
registers.
INSTALLING EVALUATION SOFTWARE AND THE
DRIVER
The following instructions describe how to install the
ADRF6720 control software, as well as the Cypress Generic
USB driver, onto a Windows computer running either a 32 or
64-bit operating system. Install the necessary software before
plugging the USB cable to the computer. (The following
instructions are specific for Windows XP, Windows Vista, and
Windows 7. However, the software is compatible with Windows
98, Windows 2000, and Windows ME.)
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Extract the ADRF6720_Control_SW_Rev0_0_3.zip file.
Next, run the file ADRF6720_Rev0_0_3_install.exe from
the extracted .zip file. An icon should appear on your
desktop with the Analog Devices, Inc., logo, titled
ADRF6720_Rev0_0_3.
Once the installer is finished, install the USB driver. Plug
the RFG USB adapter into the PC using a USB cable.
In Windows XP, right click My Computer and select
Properties > Device Manager. Then select the Hardware
tab and Device Manager.
In Windows Vista, right click My Computer and select
Device Manager.
In Windows 7, select Device Manager.
In Device Manager, select the last category, Universal
Serial Bus Controllers. There will be an entry that either
has a yellow flag on it (for unknown device) or is labeled
ADF4xxx USB Driver (if you have installed the previous
ADRF6x0x or Analog Devices, Inc., Limerick PLL
software). Right click this device and select update driver.
Browse to select the directory where you unzip. Click Next
to complete the driver installation successfully.
In Windows 7, install the USB signed driver. Run
ADI_RFG_Drivers_Win7.exe in the attached zip file.
Windows 7 will then recognize the CyUSB driver as a
signed driver.
USING ADRF6720 EVALUATION SOFTWARE
The ADRF6720 evaluation software offers a block diagram view
of how the registers affect the major functional blocks of the
ADRF6720. The main screen of the evaluation software is
shown in Figure 3. Table 1 shows the functionality of the
software main screen.
Before reading or writing to the registers, validate the USB
connection by reading the USB indicators at the lower left
corner of the software. The DUT to GUI button reads the
register values from the device and updates the user interface.
An automatic write to the chip is initiated every time a register
value is changed from the user interface.
The PLL synthesizer blocks have some behind the scenes
calculations where the user only needs to specify the PLL
reference and desired LO frequency and the software calculates
and sets the INT, FRAC, and MOD values accordingly. The green
boxes require user input while the yellow boxes are read only.
The Engineering tab as shown in Figure 4 allows specific reads
and writes to the individual registers. The address and data
fields must be input in decimal format.
