Overview

Description

This ISLA214P50-55210EV1Z is an evaluation platform featuring Renesas' ultra-high, dynamic range, fully differential amplifier (FDA), the ISL55210, and the high-speed, high-performance, 14-bit, 500MSPS ADC, the ISLA214P50. In the delivered configuration, it offers a full signal path reference design providing a 100MHz flat channel bandwidth that achieves typically <-85dBc distortion terms with -2dBFS at the ADC inputs from a -7dBm single-ended input. The channel characteristics (passband location, stop-band attenuation, gain, etc.), can be easily altered to suit your needs by modifying the 3rd order RLC filter between the amplifier and analog-to-digital converter. To facilitate immediate performance measurement and analysis, this PCB daughterboard pairs to Renesas' existing high-speed ADC evaluation platform.

Features

  • Sample rate: 80MSPS to 500MSPS
  • Input signal passband: 100kHz to 100MHz (+/- 0.8dB flat)
  • Full-scale input: -5.0dBm (355mVpp)
  • SNR: 71.8 dBFS (Fin = 30MHz, Fs = 500MSPS, ADC only = 72.6dBFS)
  • SFDR: 85dBc (Fin = 30MHz, Fs = 500MSPS, ADC only = 84dBc)
  • Power consumption: 1.0W (FDA + ADC)
  • IM3: <-90dBc @ 70MHz (1MHz spacing)
