QUICK START GUIDE
Use the following steps to evaluate the ADF4108 device:
1. Install the Int-N software.
2. Follow the hardware driver installation procedure.
3. Connect the power supplies to the EV-ADF4108EB1Z:
a. The 5.5 V power supply to the on-board banana connectors.
b. The 15 V power supply to test points labeled +15 V and AGND1.
4. Connect the USB cable to the PC and to the EV-ADF4108EB1Z.
5. Run the Int-N software.
6. Select the ADF4108 device and the USB board in the Select Device and Connection tab of the software front panel window.
7. Ensure that the message “board connected” appears on front panel.
8. Connect the reference frequency to REFIN (SMA).
9. Click the Main Controls tab to input RF Settings and Settings.
10. Note that the Phase Detector Polarity drop-down list in the Settings section should be set to Negative to suit the active loop filter in
inverting mode.
11. Update all registers.
12. Connect the output to a signal source analyzer. The board offers two outputs.
a. VCO/2 via SMA labeled VCO/2
b. VCO via SMA labeled EXT_VCOOUT

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
The evaluation board comes with a mini-USB cable to connect to
the USB port of a PC. The evaluation board silkscreen is shown
in Figure 2. The EV-ADF4108EB1Z schematics are shown in
Figure 21, Figure 22, Figure 23, and Figure 24.
POWER SUPPLIES
The board is powered via two external supplies, 5.5 V and 15 V,
and connected as described in the Quick Start Guide Section on
page 3.
INPUT SIGNALS
The necessary reference input can be from an external
generator. A low noise, high slew rate reference source is best
for achieving the stated performance of the ADF4108. This
reference source is connected to the SMA connector REFIN. A
second option is to solder a footprint-compatible TCXO to
Footprint Y1.
OUTPUT SIGNALS
The VCO output is available at EXT_VCOOUT through a
standard SMA connector. A divide by 2 option is also available
at the SMA connector VCO/2. To use an alternate loop filter
and VCO, the charge pump output CPOUT and the VCO tune
voltage VTUNE are available as outputs via standard SMA
connectors.
DEFAULT OPERATION
All components necessary for LO generation can be inserted on
the board. The board is shipped with the ADF4108 synthesizer,
an active loop filter, and the VCO.
An active loop filter using standard feedback is inserted
between the charge pump output and the VCO input. The
design parameters for the loop filter are for a center frequency of
7500 MHz, a PFD frequency of 2500 kHz, and an active loop filter
bandwidth of 17 kHz. To design a filter for different frequency
setups, use the ADIsimPLL simulation software to generate
filter component values and evaluate results.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
The control software for the EV-ADF4108EB1Z accompanies
the EV-ADF4108EB1Z on a CD. To install the software, see the
Software Installation section.
To run the software, click the Int-N v7 file on the desktop or in
the Start menu.
On the Select Device and Connection tab, choose your device
and your connection method, and then click Connect.
Confirm that “Analog Devices RFG.L Eval Board connected” is
displayed at the bottom left of the window (see Figure 17).
Otherwise, the software has no connection to the evaluation board.
Note that, when connecting the board, it takes about 5 to 10
seconds for the status label to change.
Under the File menu, the current settings can be saved to, and
loaded from, a text file.
Figure 17. Software Front Panel Display—Select Device and Connection
Rev. A | Page 8 of 20
Evaluation Board User Guide UG-160
09145-018
The Main Controls tab controls the PLL settings (see Figure 18).
Use the RF Settings section to control the output frequency. You
can type the desired output frequency in the RF VCO Output
Frequency text box (in MHz).
Use the Reference Frequency text box to set the correct
reference frequency and the reference frequency divider. The
default reference on the software window is at 100 MHz.
The Settings section lets you select general options available for
the PLL, including the charge pump current settings and phase
detector polarity. The EV-ADF4108EB1Z uses a charge pump
setting of 5 mA and a negative Phase Detector Polarity.
In the Registers tab, you can manually input the desired value
to be written to the registers.
In the Sweep and Hop tab, you can make the device sweep a
range of frequencies or hop between two set frequencies.
In the Latches/Registers section at the bottom of the window,
the values to be written to each register are displayed. If the
background on the text box is green, the value displayed is
different from the value actually on the device. Click Wr it e R
Counter Latch or Write N Counter Latch to write that value
to the device. To update all Latches in the correct order, click
Write all Latches.

EVALUATION AND TEST
To evaluate and test the performance of the ADF4108, use the
following steps:
1. Install the Analog Devices Int-N software
2. Use ADIsimPLL to generate the loop filter component
values if a different loop filter is required.
3. Solder new filter components specified by ADIsimPLL.
4. Install the USB software drivers. Connect the evaluation
board to a PC using the supplied USB cable. Follow the
hardware driver installation procedure that appears.
5. Connect the USB connector to the EV-ADF4108EB1Z.
6. Connect a Reference signal to REFIN.
7. Connect a spectrum analyzer to EXT_VCOOUT OR
VCO/2.
8. Run the Int-N software.
9. Select the USB board and the ADF4108 device in the
Select Device and Connection tab of the software front
panel window.
10. On the Main Controls tab, set the VCO center frequency
(Figure 19 uses a 7.5 GHz VCO). Set the PFD frequency as
specified in ADIsimPLL, and program the Reference
frequency to match Reference connected to SMA
Connector REFIN (or the TCXO). See Figure 20 for the
suggested setup.
11. Measure the output spectrum. Figure 19 shows a 7.5 GHz
output.
