AD9162-FMCB-EBZ

16-Bit, 12 GSPS, RF Digital-to-Analog Converter evaluation board with the FMC connector

The AD9161, AD9162, AD9163, and AD9164 evaluation boards are all FMC form-factor boards with FMC connector that complies to the Vita 57.1 standard. There are three variants of the board (-FMC, -FMCB, -FMCC) that accommodate slightly different Bills of Material (BOMs).

• The -FMC boards are designed for the 8x8mm package variant of the AD9162 and AD9164 and use a Marki Microwave wideband balun on the DAC output.

• The -FMCB boards are designed for the same 8x8mm package variant of the AD9162 and AD9164 and use a Mini-Circuits balun on the DAC output.

• The -FMCC boards are designed for the 11x11mm package variant and accommodates all four of the AD9161, AD9162, AD9163, and AD9164. It also uses a Mini-Circuits balun on the DAC output.
