MAX19505–MAX19507/
MAX19515–MAX19517 Evaluation Kits
General Description
The MAX19505–MAX19507/MAX19515–MAX19517 eval-
uation kits (EV kits) are fully assembled and tested cir-
cuit boards that contain all the components necessary to
evaluate the performance of this family of 8-bit and 10-
bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The EV kits also
include Windows
®
2000-, Windows XP
®
-, and Windows
Vista
®
-compatible software that provides a simple
graphical user interface (GUI) for exercising the pro-
grammable features of the MAX19505–MAX19507/
MAX19515–MAX19517.
The MAX19505–MAX19507/MAX19515–MAX19517 EV
kits accept a single-ended analog input from an analog
signal source. The EV kits provide an on-board circuit
that transforms this analog single-ended signal into a
differential signal. The ADC digital output can be cap-
tured easily with Maxim’s data converter evaluation
platform (DCEP). The EV kits operate from a single 5V
power supply and provide on-board regulation for the
analog, clock, digital, and logic circuitry.

MAX19515–MAX19517 Evaluation Kits
Quick Start
Recommended Equipment
•
•
•
•
•
•
Single 5V, 1A DC power supply
Signal generator with low phase noise and low jitter
for clock input (e.g., HP 8644B)
Signal generator for analog signal input (e.g., HP
8644B)
Maxim DCEP (Data Converter Evaluation Platform)
Analog bandpass filters (e.g., K&L Microwave) for
input and clock signal
User-supplied Windows 2000, Windows XP, or
Windows Vista PC with two spare USB ports
9) Connect the output of the signal bandpass filter to
the VINA SMA connector. Note: It is recommended
that a 3dB or 6dB attenuation pad be used to reduce
reflections and distortion from the bandpass filter.
10) Apply power to the DCEP at J4 using the provided
supply connector.
11) Carefully connect the boards by aligning J5 on the
DCEP to J5 on the EV kit. Gently press them together.
12) Connect the USB cable from the computer’s type-A
USB port to the DCEP board’s type-B USB port.
13) Connect the 5V, 1A power supply to VIN. Connect
the ground terminal of this supply to the corre-
sponding GND pad.
14) Connect the USB cable from the computer’s type-A
USB port to the EV kit board’s type-B USB port.
15) Visit
www.maxim-ic.com/evkitsoftware
to down-
load the latest version of the MAX19517 EV kit soft-
ware and install it on your computer by running the
INSTALL.EXE program. The program files are copied
and icons are created in the Windows
Start
menu.
16) Start the MAX19517 program by opening its icon in
the
Start
menu.
17) Turn on the 5V power supply.
18) Enable the signal generators.
19) Set the clock signal generator for an output ampli-
tude of 2V
P-P
or higher (recommended +16dBm to
+19dBm for optimum AC performance for input fre-
quencies > 100MHz) and the frequency (f
CLK
) as
appropriate.
20) Set the analog input signal generators for an output
amplitude of less than or equal to 2V
P-P
and to the
desired frequency.
21) Verify that the two signal generators are phase
locked to each other. Adjust the output power level
of the signal generators to overcome cable, band-
pass filter, and attenuation pad losses at the input.
22) Download the DCEP software from the included
CD-ROM and install it on your computer by running
the DCEP Installation XX MMM YY.EXE file. Note
that XX MMM YY indicates the day, month, and year
of the available software build. The program files
are copied and icons are created in the Windows
Start
menu.
23) Start the DCEP program by opening its icon in the
Start
menu.
24) Collect data using the DCEP software.

Note:
In the following sections, software-related items
are identified by bolding. Text in

refers to items from the Windows operating system.
Procedure
The MAX19505–MAX19507/MAX19515–MAX19517 EV
kits are fully assembled and tested surface-mount
boards. Follow the steps below to verify board operation.
Caution: Do not turn on power supplies or enable
signal generators until all connections are completed.
1) Verify that shunts are installed across pins 1-3 of
jumpers JU1, JU2, and JU3 (SPI connected).
2) Verify that no shunts are installed across jumpers
JU6 (device enabled) and JU7 (SPI enabled).
3) Verify that shunts are installed across jumpers JU9
(AVDD connected) and JU10 (OVDD connected).
4) Set SW1 (1, 4) to the on position and SW1 (2, 3) to
the off position (AVDD = 1.8V).
5) Set SW2 (1, 4) to the on position and SW2 (2, 3) to
the off position (OVDD = 1.8V).
6) Connect the clock generator output to the clock
bandpass filter input.
7) Connect the output of the clock bandpass filter to
the CLK SMA connector.
8) Connect the output of the analog signal generator
to the input of the signal bandpass filter. Keep the
cable connection between the signal generators, fil-
ters, and EV kit board as short as possible for opti-
mum dynamic performance.
