INTRODUCTION
This Technical Note describes the evaluation board for the
AD7472 12-bit, high speed, low power, successive approximation A/D converter that operates from a single 2.7 V to
5.25 V supply. Full data on the AD7472 is available in the
AD7472 data sheet available from Analog Devices and
should be consulted in conjunction with this Technical Note
when using the Evaluation Board.
On-board components include an AD780 which is a pin
programmable +2.5 V or +3 V ultra high precision bandgap
reference, two AD797 op-amps used to buffer the analog
input, and an OP07 op-amp used to buffer the DC bias
voltage applied to the optional analog input bias-up circuit.
There are various link options which are explained in detail
on page 2.
When using the board as a stand alone unit or with the HSCINTERFACE BOARD, external supplies must be provided.
This evaluation board has five power supply inputs: VDD,
AGND, VSS, VDRIVE and DGND. +5 V must be connected to the
VDD input to supply the AVDD and DVDD pins on the AD7472,
the AD780 voltage reference, the positive supply pin of all
three op-amps and the digital control logic. 0 V is connected
to the AGND input. -5 V must be connected to the VSS input to
supply the negative supply pins on all three op-amps. The
VDRIVE input can be used to provide an external voltage for the
output drivers on the AD7472. If an external VDRIVE is
supplied, it is referenced to the DGND input which should be
tied to 0 V. The supplies are decoupled to the relevant ground
plane with 47µF tantalum and 0.1µF multilayer ceramic
capacitors at the point where they enter the board. The supply
pins of the op-amps and reference are also decoupled to AGND
with a 10µF tantalum and a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. The
AD7472 AVDD supply pin is decoupled to AGND with 10uF
tantalum and 0.1µF multilayer ceramic capacitors. The
AD7472 DVDD and VDRIVE pins are decoupled to AGND with
10uF tantalum capacitors and to DGND with 0.1µF multilayer
ceramic capacitors.
Interfacing to this board is through a 96-way connector. This

EVAL-AD7472CB
Analog Input Section
The analog input section of this evaluation board accommodates unipolar and bipolar signals. Unipolar signals within the
AD7472 analog input signal range of 0 V - 2.5 V are connected via SK5. They are then buffered by the on-board buffer before
being applied to the VIN pin of the AD7472. Bipolar signals are connected via SK3 and are biased up by the on-board biasup buffer circuit before being applied to the VIN pin of the AD7472. The input impedence of the bias-up circuit is 50W which
is determined by the value of R7. The input impedence may be modified by removing/changing the value of R7. To obtain
optimum performance from this evaluation board the use of an impedence matched, passive filter is recommended before the
analog signal is applied to the evaluation board. For example, when using a 100KHz input tone, a 100KHz 50W filter from
TTE (part number KC5-100K-15K-50/50-720B) is suitable.
R8 Potentiometer (50Kohm)
This variable resistor is used to trim the DC bias voltage applied to the optional analog input bias-up circuit. This bias voltage
is factory preset to 1.25 V which biases a bipolar signal to swing around the midpoint of the analog input range (0 - 2.5 V).
If any adjustment is required, the user can use the histogram window in the eval-board software to analyze the DC voltage
variation while adjusting the trim pot. To view this properly, an analog input signal should not be applied to the board. Under
normal operation this pot should not be adjusted as it is preset for optimum performance.
LINK AND SWITCH OPTIONS
There are 11 link options which must be set for the required operating setup before using the evaluation board. The functions
of these options are outlined below.

When interfacing directly to the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD,
all power supplies and control signals are generated by the
EVAL-CONTROL BOARD. However, due to the nature of
the DSP interface on the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD,
AD7472 sampling rates greater than 400 KHz are not
supported when interfacing the EVAL-AD7472CB directly
to the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD. To achieve sample rates
greater than 400 KHz, the HSC-INTERFACE BOARD
must be used. The HSC-INTERFACE BOARD is a board
designed to interface between evaluation boards for high
speed analog-to-digital converters and the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD. It can be ordered from Analog Devices
through the normal channels using the part number "HSCINTERFACE BOARD".

SOCKETS
OPERATING WITH THE EVAL-CONTROL BOARD
There are four input sockets relevant to the operation of the
AD7472 on this evaluation board. The function of these
sockets is outlined in Table IV.
The evaluation board can be operated in a stand-alone mode
or operated in conjunction with the EVAL-CONTROL
BOARD (with or without the HSC-INTERFACE BOARD).
This EVAL-CONTROL BOARD is available from Analog
Devices under the order entry "EVAL-CONTROL BOARD".
When interfacing directly to this control board, all supplies
and control signals to operate the AD7472 are provided by
the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD when it is run under control
of the AD7472 software which is provided with the AD7472
evaluation board package. This EVAL-CONTROL BOARD
will also operate with all Analog Devices evaluation boards
which end with the letters CB in their title.

Function
SK1
Sub-Miniature BNC Socket for external clock
input.
SK2
Sub-Miniature BNC Socket for external
CONVST input.
SK3
Sub-Miniature BNC Socket for Bipolar analog input The AD7472 can only accept analog
inputs in the range 0 V to REFIN. Bipolar
analog inputs in the range -1.25 V to +1.25 V
applied to this socket are biased up to the
acceptable AD7472 input range by the onboard bias-up circuit before being applied to
the AD7472 VIN pin.
SK5
Sub-Miniature BNC Socket for unipolar analog input. Analog inputs in the acceptable
AD7472 analog input range (0 V to REFIN)
are applied to this socket. The signal is then
buffered before it is applied to the AD7472
VIN pin.
CONNECTORS
There are four connectors on the AD7472 evaluation board
as outlined in Table V.
Table V.
The 96-way connector on the EVAL-AD7472CB plugs
directly into the 96-way connector on the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD. No power supplies are required in the
system. The EVAL-CONTROL BOARD generates all the
required supplies for itself and the EVAL-AD7472CB. The
EVAL-CONTROL BOARD is powered from a 12 V AC
transformer. This is a standard 12 V AC transformer capable
of supplying 1 A current and is available as an accessory from
Analog Devices under the following part numbers:
EVAL-110VAC-US:
For use in the U.S. or Japan
EVAL-220VAC-UK:
For use in the U.K.
EVAL-220VAC-EU:
For use in Europe
These transformers are also available for other suppliers
including Digikey (U.S.) and Campbell Collins (U.K.).
Connection between the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD and
the serial port of a PC is via a standard RS-232 cable which
is provided as part the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD package. Please refer to the manual which accompanies the

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
Included in the EVAL-AD7472CB evaluation board package is a PC-compatible disk. This disk has two sub-directories called EVAL_CTRL and HSC_INT, each containing
software for controlling and evaluating the performance of
the AD7472 when it is operated with the EVAL-CONTROL
BOARD or the HSC-INTERFACE BOARD. The EVALAD7472CB Demonstration/Evaluation Software runs under
DOS 4.0 or later and requires a minimum of a 386-based
machine with 400kB of base RAM and 500kB of free hard
disk space. The user interface on the PC is a dedicated
program written especially for the AD7472.
The disk which accompanies the EVAL-AD7472CB contains two sub-directories. The user should create a new
directory on the main PC drive and label this "AD7472".
Then, the sub-directories (and all files contained within
them) on the EVAL-AD7472CB disk should be copied into
this directory. The Mouse Driver on the PC should be
enabled before running the software. If this has not been
loaded, the program will not run.
To run the software, simply make the AD7472\EVAL_CTL
directory or the AD7472\HSC_INT directory (depending
on which setup is being used) the current directory and type
"go". When the evaluation program starts, the user sees the
screen shown on Figure 3 (without any FFT or scope
waveforms). This is the main screen and it is divided into
three parts. The top part provides the main control interface
for the AD7472 evaluation software. The middle part of the
main screen functions as a Digital Storage Oscilloscope and
the bottom part of the main screen operates as either a Digital
Spectrum Analyzer or a Histogram analyzer.
Each part of the screen has several buttons that can be pressed
by using the mouse or the keyboard. To press a button using
the mouse, simply use it to move the on-screen pointer to the
button to be activated and click. To use the keyboard, simply
REV. A
press the appropriate key as highlighted on the button. Lower
case letters must be used. When a button is pressed, it is
highlighted on the screen. The next button can be highlighted by using the Tab key or the previous button by
holding down the shift key and the Tab key together. The
highlighted button can also be pressed by pressing the space
bar. Pressing the ESC key halts any operation currently in
progress. In this document, if a button can be activated from
the keyboard then the key used is shown in bold in the button
name. For example, "no prog" has the "p" highlighted in
bold, indicating that the button can be activated by pressing
the p key.
Some buttons have a red indicator. A red indicator on the
button means that the function associated with that button is
on. Absence of the red indicator light means that the function
associated with the button is off. The on/off status of these
buttons is changed simply by selecting the button.
Setting up the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD
When the software is run, the "F2 Setup" button in the top left
of the screen should be selected to pop up the setup menu (see
fig. 4). This menu sets up the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD
for use with the EVAL-AD7472CB.
Firstly, a configuration file must be chosen. The configuration file contains the default configuration information for
the EVAL-CONTROL BOARD, the Digital Spectrum
Analyzer and the Digital Storage Oscilloscope. It also tells
the AD7472.EXE software which .HIP file to download to
the ADSP-2111. The .HIP file contains the DSP code which
is executed by the ADSP-2111. Normally, the "no prog"
button is off, so when the configuration file is loaded, the
.HIP file is automatically downloaded to the ADSP-2111.
However, if the "no prog" button is on, then the .HIP file is
not downloaded to the ADSP-2111.

with a .DAT extension. Only data that was saved as
ints can be loaded and analyzed. A configuration file
must be loaded via the "F2 Setup" menu before the
data file can be analyzed. If there is no EVALCONTROL BOARD connected to the PC, then the
"no prog" button in the "F2 Setup" menu must be on.
Once a configuration file has been loaded, the data
loaded from the .DAT file is analyzed according to
the settings in the "F2 Setup" menu.
Click the OK button to return to the main screen.

returns control to the operating system.
The "Analog in" section shows the analog input range and
DC offset voltage.
The user can then select the required number of samples and
sampling frequency. Note: While the AD7472 data sheet
specifies a maximum clock frequency of 26 MHz, the onboard crystal oscillator outputs a 25MHz clock. Therefore
the max. sampling frequency will be less than that specified
on the data sheet. An external clock frequency (up to the max
specified on the data sheet) can be applied via the external
socket, SK1.
The top left part of the main screen contains eight buttons
which are selected using the mouse or by using the function
keys from the keyboard. These buttons and the actions they
perform are:
F1:
Info. This button shows information on the software.
F2:
Setup.
F3:
Samp. When this key is pressed, the software causes
the AD7472 to perform a number of conversions as
determined by the setup menu (see above). The data
from these conversions is then analyzed by the AD7472
evaluation software. Another set of samples may be
taken by pressing the F3 key again.
F4:
Cont. Pressing this button causes the software to
repeatedly perform conversions and analyze them.
Once the conversions and analysis has been done for
one set of samples, the software automatically repeats
the process. It continues to do this until the ESC key
is pressed.
This button activates the setup menu.
INFORMATION WINDOWS
There are three information windows at the top of the main
screen. The left-hand window is the configuration window
and gives details about part being evaluated. It shows the
name of the program that has been downloaded to the EVALCONTROL BOARD, the sampling frequency, the number
of bits, the analog input range of the part and the output code
format of the part. The right-hand large window is the Status
window. This window provides feedback to the user as to
what operations are currently being performed by the software and also displays error messages.
Test Mode
At the top right of the main screen are the Test Mode buttons.
These buttons determine what sort of testing is done on the
samples captured by the software. Both an ac analysis and dc
analysis can be performed. The function of these buttons are:
fft plot
Choosing this button causes the Digital Spectrum Analyzer to appear at the bottom of the
screen.
Histogram:
Choosing this button causes the Histogram
Analyzer to be displayed at the bottom of the

There is one other button near the top of the screen, beside
the "F10 Quit" button. This is:
blackman-harris:
When performing a Fourier transform
of the sampled data, this button determines whether
or not the data is windowed by a blackman-harris
window before the transform. When this button is
on, the data is windowed. When this button is off,
the data isn't windowed. See the Digital Spectrum
Analyzer section for more details.

DIGITAL STORAGE OSCILLOSCOPE.
When samples of data are captured, they are displayed on the
Digital Storage Oscilloscope. If the blackman-harris button
is turned on then the windowed data is also displayed on the
oscilloscope. The 'scope has been designed to act in a similar
way as a conventional oscilloscope. To the right of the
oscilloscope are several buttons that control the manner in
which data is displayed on the 'scope. The timebase for the
oscilloscope is automatically chosen by the software if the
Time/Div "Auto" button is on. The user can also select the
timebase by clicking in the Time/Div window and scrolling
up and down through the possible timebases. Similarly, the
vertical scale of the oscilloscope is chosen automatically if the

When this button is on, the dc component of the
sampled signal is removed and the signal is displayed. This has the effect of centering the signal
vertically on the oscilloscope screen. When this
button is off, the dc component is not removed and

the signal is displayed with its horizontal axis
corresponding to a code of 0. The ac display option
is useful for zooming in on a low-level signal that
has a large dc offset.
When the "dual" button is on, the oscilloscope
screen is divided into two parts with the sampled
data display centered on one horizontal axis and the
windowed data display centered on another. When
the "dual" button is off, both traces are centered on
the same horizontal axis.
This button toggles the sampled data trace on and
off.
This button toggles the windowed data trace on and
off.
HISTOGRAM ANALYZER
The histogram analyzer counts the number of occurrences of
each code in the captured samples and displays a histogram
of these counts. The most frequently occurring code is
displayed in the center of the histogram. The analyzer is
normally used with a dc input signal and calculates the mean
and the standard deviation of the sampled data. The mean
and standard deviation are displayed in both volts and in units
of the lsb size of the converter. The histogram gives a good
indication of the dc noise performance of the ADC. The
standard deviation shows directly the noise introduced in the
conversion process.
