FEATURES
Enables quick breadboarding/prototyping
User-defined circuit configuration
Edge-mounted SMA connector provisions
Easy connection to test equipment and other circuits
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 8-lead standard small outline package (SOIC), with a
dedicated feedback pin and an exposed paddle, evaluation
board is designed to aid in the evaluation of single, high speed
operational amplifiers. The evaluation board is a bare board
(that is, there are no components soldered to the board) that
enables users to quickly prototype a variety of operational
amplifier circuits, which minimizes risk and reduces time to
market. The evaluation board supports any of the Analog Devices,
Inc., single, high speed operational amplifiers in an 8-lead SOIC
package with a dedicated feedback pin and an exposed paddle.
Figure 1 shows the component side of the evaluation board, and
Figure 2 shows the circuit side of the evaluation board. Figure 3
shows the evaluation board schematic.
The 4-layer evaluation board accepts edge-mounted Subminiature
Version A (SMA) connectors on both inputs and outputs, which
allows efficient and quick connection to test equipment or other
circuitry.
The board ground plane, component placement, and power
supply bypassing are optimized for maximum circuit flexibility
and performance. The evaluation board uses a variety of surface-
mount technology (SMT) component case sizes: 0402, 0508,
0603, and 7343.
Figure 4 and Figure 6 show the evaluation board assembly
drawings. The metal layout pattern for connecting the board to
the op amp and to the supporting circuitry is shown in Figure 5
and Figure 7.
