EVALUATION BOARD
Figure 19 shows the schematic for the ADL5531 evaluation
board. The board is powered by a single 5 V supply.
The components used on the board are listed in Table 5. Power
can be applied to the board through clip-on leads or through
Jumper W1. Note that C4, C7, C8, L3, L4, L5, R1, and R2 have
no function.
