INTRODUCTION
This Technical Note describes the evaluation board for the
AD5532 and AD5533. These devices combine a 32 channel
voltage translation function with an infinite output hold
capability. An analog input voltage on the common input pin,
Vin, is sampled and its digital representation transferred to a
chosen DAC register. The output of this DAC is then
updated to reflect the new contents of the DAC register.
Channel selection is accomplished via the parallel address
inputs A0-A5 or via the serial input port. The AD5532 is
operated with AVcc= +5V+/-5%, DVcc= 2.5V to 5.25V,
Vss= -4.75V to -16.5V, Vdd= 10V to 16V and requires a
stable +3V reference on the REF_IN pin as well as an offset
voltage on OFFS_IN. These devices are available in a 74-
lead LFBGA package. Full datails are available in the
AD5532 and AD5533 datasheets from Analog Devices and
should be consulted in conjunction with this Technical Note
when using the Evaluation Board.
On-board components include an AD780 which is a pin
programmable +3V ultra high precision bandgap reference
and an AD5541 which is a 16-bit DAC that can be used to
provide an analog input voltage to the AD5532/AD5533.
There are various link and switch options which are ex-
plained in detail on page 2.
Interfacing to this board from a PC is through a 36-way
Centronics connector. This 36-way connector is compatible
with most printer cables and is usually connected to the
parallel printer port on a standard PC via a standard printer
cable.
OPERATING THE AD5532 EVALUATION BOARD
Power Supplies
The following external supplies must be provided: +5V
between the DVCC and DGND inputs which supplies the
DVCC pins on the AD5532. +5V between the AVCC and the
AGND inputs to supply the AD780, the AD5541, the AD820
and the AVCC pins on the AD5532. -15V to the VSS input
to supply the AD5532 AVSS pins. +15V to the VDD input
to supply the AD5532 AVDD pins.
Each supply is decoupled to the relevant ground plane with
a 47uF and a 0.1uF capacitor pair as it enters the board. Each
device supply pin is again decoupled with a 10uF and a 0.1uF
capacitor pair to the relevant ground plane.
There are 2 ground planes on the board, AGND and DGND.
These are connected together at one location close to the
AD5532. It is recommended not to connect these anywhere
else to avoid ground loop problems.
