Hello,
No, SMA-to-SMA cables are not included with the ADS8900BEVM-PDK kit. However, if you order the optional PSIEVM to use with the ADS8900BEVM, this kit does include 2 SMA-to-SMA cables.

For testing the ADC I recommend using the following signal injector EVM from TI http://www.ti.com/tool/PSIEVM I have used this to replicate the DS numbers for both 12-bit and 16-bit modes of this ADC.
The output of the PSIEVM is SMA which is…
Part Number: ADS8320 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: PSIEVM , LMP7716 , OPA354 Hi, All:
We are planning to use ADS8320 in our project, and we bought an ADS8320EVM and are evaluating the baisc features.
Now we met an issue of SNR.
We tested your…
Hi Taeyeong,
Is the sampling coherent or are you using a windowing function? If you are using a windowing function, you may need to center the signal before passing it to the windowing function (so that the mean sampled value is 0). Note that even after…
Hi TI Team,
Sorry, I was not read the datasheet of PSIEVM . Just now I read it and I get to know this kit can be used for SAR based ADC's. It can be used to give Single ended as well as Differential signals.
Correct me if I wrongly understood
Thanks…
Mike,
Just for clarity sake my understanding of the problem is:
Q1)Can TI suggest a clean voltage source for the ADC to sample to see the performance of the ADC.
Assuming this is true, the TI data converter group has this EVM http://www.ti.com/tool…
Hi Daniel,
How is the sampled waveform reconstructed?
Do you have a spectrum plot of both the input waveform and the reconstructed waveform?
What do the signal conditioning circuits look like in this case?: What is the driving buffer and topology…
Hi Venkatesh,
There is nothing different in the chip about ADC-D. You can use ADC-D in single-ended mode and you can use ADC-A, B, or C in differential mode.
If you want to use ADC-D to sample a single-ended signal, just hook your signal up to one…
Hi Benjamin,
Note that 16-bit ADC noise/distortion specifications are given with the condition fin = 10kHz. Frequencies higher than this (e.g. 100kHz) will have lower performance.
Note also that at 100kHz fin and 164kHz sampling rate, you have crossed…
