AD ADF5904 Downconverter Module and Eval Board from Mouser

Each of the four identical channels on the Analog Devices ADF5904 contains a single-ended RF input with an on-chip balun followed by a differential low noise amplifier (LNA) and a downconverter mixer with differential output buffers. The module provides a receiver (Rx) channel gain of 22dB, 10dB noise figure, −8dBm to +5dBm LO input range, 30dB Rx to IF isolation, and 250MHz RF signal bandwidth. A simple three-wire interface controls the on-chip registers.

The EV-ADF5904SD2Z evaluation board includes the ADF5904 module, five high-frequency SMA connectors for the local oscillator input, four receiver inputs, eight SMA connectors for the baseband outputs, banana connectors for power supply, and a connector for serial interface. The kit also contains Windows-compatible software that allows designers to program the ADF5904 module. The evaluation board requires an Analog Devices EVAL-SDP-CS1Z controller board, also available from Mouser Electronics, to program the ADF5904 module. This SDP-S board provides a USB 2.0 high speed connection to the computer, allowing designers work with the EV-ADF5904SD2Z software. The SDP-S board is based on a USB-to-serial engine, which has SPI, I2C, and GPIO lines available, with a 120-pin small footprint connector.
