TSW3085EVM capability

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TSW3085EVM, TRF3705, DAC3482

Hello!

Reading the manual for this board it gives the impression it can measure ACPR and %EVM, (no, not EValuation Module).

I can see nowhere in the block diagram, or the schematic of the TSW3085EVM where it can measure anything, the setup does not decode- and measure the signals it generates. 

I know the manual is a bit old, maybe there is more recent one, that includes the TSW1400?

I suggest some changes below ( add omit ) :

Design Description (SLAA509–December 2011)
This reference design discusses the use of the TSW3085EVM with the TSW3100 pattern generator to
test adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) and error vector magnitude (EVM) measurements of LTE
baseband signals. By using the TSW3100 LTE GUI, patterns are loaded into the TSW3085EVM which is
comprised of the DAC3482, TRF3705, and LMK04806B.

Introduction

As a solution for precise signal transmitting and receiving, the LMK04806B clock of the TSW3085EVM
provides a clean clock in order for EVM measurements to remain low, while providing acceptable ACPR
measurements using the DAC3482. Using a Rohde and Schwarz signal analyzer for demodulation of LTE
signals, verification of EVM and ACPR is presented to verify that the TSW3085EVM provides exceptional
testing of receive signal chain hardware.

I'm grasping for words to describe these "misstatements".
