General Description
The MAX5865 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested circuit board that contains all the components
necessary to evaluate the performance of the MAX5865
40Msps analog front end. The MAX5865 integrates a
dual-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a dualchannel digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and a 1.024V
internal voltage reference. The EV kit board accepts
AC- or DC-coupled, differential or single-ended analog
inputs for the receive ADC and includes circuitry that
converts the transmit DAC differential output signals to
single-ended analog outputs. The EV kit includes circuitry that generates a clock signal from an AC sine
wave input signal. The EV kit operates from a +3.0V
analog power supply, +3.0V digital power supply, and
±5V bipolar power supply.
The EV kit comes with Windows98/2000/XP-compatible
software that provides an interface to exercise the features of the MAX5865. The program is menu driven and
offers a graphical user interface (GUI) with control buttons and status displays. The GUI is used to control the
MAX5865 SPI-compatible serial interface.
The MAX5865 EV kit evaluates the 22Msps MAX5864 or
the 7.5Msps MAX5863 analog front end (IC replacement is required).

Procedure
The MAX5865 EV kit is a fully assembled and tested
surface-mount board. Follow the steps below for proper
board operation. Do not turn on power supplies or
enable signal generators until all connections are
completed:
1) Verify that shunts are installed across pins 1 and 2
of jumpers JU1, JU2, JU3, and JU4 (single-ended
analog signals IA and QA converted to differential
input signals with transformers T1 and T2).
2) Verify that shunts are installed across pins 2 and 3
of jumpers JU5, JU6, JU7, and JU8 (differential
analog output signals converted to single-ended
signals ID and QD with operational-amplifier circuits
U3 and U4).
3) Verify that no shunts are installed across jumpers
JU9 and JU10.
4) Verify that a shunt is installed across jumper JU11
(internal reference).
5) Connect the 25-pin I/O extension cable from the
computer’s parallel port to the MAX5865 EV kit
board DB25 right-angle male plug J4. The EV kit
software uses a loopback connection to confirm
that the correct port has been selected.
6) Install the evaluation software on your computer by
running the INSTALL.EXE program on the CD-ROM.
The program files are copied and icons are created
for them in the Start menu.
7) Connect the clock-function signal generator (HP
8662A) to the CLOCK SMA connectors on the
EV kit.
8) Connect the two function generators to SMA connectors IA and QA.
9) Synchronize the two function generators to the
clock function generator.
10) Connect the logic analyzer to the 2 x 10 square pin
header J1. The CLOCK signal is available on pin
J1-2 and bits DA0–DA7 are available on the even
pins J1-4 to J1-18. All other header J1 pins are connected to ground. The clock pin and data pins are
labeled CLK and DA0–DA7 on the EV board.
11) Verify that the logic analyzer is programmed for an
8-bit input at CMOS voltage levels.
12) Verify that the 10-bit digital pattern generator is programmed for valid CMOS output voltage levels.
13) Connect the digital pattern generator DG2020A output to the J3 input header connector on the EV kit
board. The input header pins are labeled for proper
connection with the digital pattern generator (i.e.,
connect bit 0 to the J3-19 header pin labeled DD0,
connect bit 1 to the J3-17 header pin labeled DD1,
etc. Input data pins are the odd pins of header J3.
All other pins are connected to ground).
14) Synchronize the digital pattern generator with the
clock function generator.
15) Connect a +3.0V power supply to the VDD pad.
Connect the ground terminal of this supply to the
GND pad.
16) Connect a +3.0V power supply to the VCLK pad.
Connect the ground terminal of this supply to the
GND pad.
17) Connect a +2.0V power supply to the OVDD pad.
Connect the ground terminal of this supply to the
OGND pad.
18) Connect a +2.0V power supply to the VDDRV pad.
Connect the ground terminal of this supply to the
OGND pad.
19) Connect the +5.0V terminal of the bipolar power
supply to the VCC pad. Connect the ground terminal of this supply to the GND pad.
20) Connect the -5.0V terminal of the bipolar power
supply to the VEE pad.
21) Turn on the five power supplies.
22) Probe resistor pad R28 with an oscilloscope and
adjust potentiometer R13 to set the clock duty cycle
to 50%.
23) Start the MAX5865 program by opening its icon in
the Start menu.
24) Click on the Xcvr control command to set the
MAX5865 in receive/transmit (transceiver) operational mode.
25) Enable the clock function generator (HP 8662A).
Set the clock function generator output power to
2.4V
P-P
(11.6dBm) and the frequency (f
CLK
) to
greater than 22MHz but less than or equal
to 40MHz.
26) Enable the function generators.
27) Set the IA function-generator output signal to
1.024V
P-P
and the frequency to ≤ f
CLK
/2.
28) Set the QA function-generator output signal to
1.024V
P-P
and and the frequency to ≤ f
CLK
/2.
29) Use the logic analyzer to analyze the 8-bit ADC digital output. The IA channel digital data is available
on the falling edge of the clock. The QA digital data
is available on the rising edge of the clock. Ensure
that the ADC input is not overdriven by observing
the output digital codes and adjusting the input signal level for code of -0.5dB full scale.
30) Enable the digital pattern generator. Program the
digital pattern generator to transmit the digital data
for the DAC I channel on the falling edge of the
clock and transmit the digital data for the Q channel
on the rising edge of the clock.
31) Connect the spectrum analyzers to the ID and QD
SMA connectors to analyze the analog outputs.
32) Use the spectrum analyzer to analyze the analog
output spectrum or view the analog output waveforms using an oscilloscope.
Detailed Description of Software
The evaluation software’s main window (shown in
Figure 1) can be used to program the MAX5865 to one
of the six operational modes: shutdown, idle, receive
(Rx), transmit (Tx), transceiver (Xcvr), and standby.
Click one of the buttons to program the MAX5865 to the
desired operational mode after power has been
applied to the EV kit. Use the keyboard arrow keys to
cycle through the control commands. See Table 1 for
the description of each operational mode.
The MAX5865 evaluation software uses a 3-wire bit-banging interface that is compatible with SPITM/ QSPITM/
MICROWIRETM/DSP interfaces to program the MAX5865
through the parallel port on the computer. Table 1 lists the
byte command for each operational mode.

MAX5863 analog front end. The MAX5863/MAX5864/
MAX5865 integrate a 1.024V temperature-stable voltage
reference, a dual-input 8-bit parallel-output receive
ADC, and a 10-bit parallel-input dual-output transmit
DAC. The MAX5863/MAX5864/MAX5865 accept ACcoupled or DC-coupled, differential, or single-ended
analog inputs at the receive ADC. The digital output
produced by the ADC can be easily captured with a
high-speed logic analyzer or data-acquisition system.
The MAX5863/MAX5864/MAX5865 digital inputs at the
transmit DAC are designed for CMOS-compatible voltage levels. The DAC produces differential analog outputs with 1.4VDC common mode.
The EV kit comes with the MAX5865 installed, which
operates at speeds of up to 40Msps. The EV kit operates from a +3.0V analog power supply, +3.0V digital
power supply, and ±5V bipolar operational amplifier
power supply. For best dynamic performance, set the
digital power supply to +2V. The EV kit includes circuitry that generates a clock signal from an AC sine wave
provided by the user. Other features include: circuitry
to convert single-ended inputs to differential input analog signals and circuitry to convert the differential outputs of the DAC to single-ended analog signals. The
MAX5865 EV kit can be used to evaluate the 22Msps
MAX5864 or the 7.5Msps MAX5863 after replacing the
MAX5865.
Power Supplies
The MAX5865 EV kit can operate from a single +3.0V
power supply connected to the VDD, OVDD, VCLK,
and VDDRV input power pads and their respective
ground pads for simple board operation. An additional
ended output circuitry (U3 and U4) is used. See the
Transmit Dual DAC Outputs section for further details.
However, two +3.0V (VDD and VCLK) and two +2V
(OVDD and VDDRV) power supplies are recommended
for best dynamic performance. The EV kit PC board
ground layer is divided into two sections: digital
(OGND) and analog (GND). The EV kit PC board power
plane is divided into four sections: VDD (MAX5865 analog circuit), OVDD (MAX5865 output driver circuit),
VCLK (clock-shaping circuit U2), and VDDRV (digital
components U5 and U6). VDD, VCLK, VCC, and VEE
inputs are referenced to analog ground GND. OVDD
and VDDRV inputs are referenced to the OGND
ground. Using separate power supplies for each input
section reduces crosstalk noise and improves the integrity of the output signals. Another advantage of using separate power supplies is that the input power sources do
not have to be at the same voltage level for the EV kit circuit to operate normally. VDD has a +2.7V to +3.3V input
range, OVDD has a +1.8V to VDD input range, VCLK has
a +2.7V to +3.3V input range , and VDDRV has a +2.0V
to +3.3V input range.

Clock Signal
An on-board clock-shaping circuit generates a clock
signal from an AC sine wave signal applied to the
CLOCK SMA connector. The input clock signal should
not exceed a magnitude of 2.6V
P-P
. The frequency of the
signal determines the sampling frequency (f
CLK
) of the
MAX5865 EV kit circuit and should not exceed 40MHz.
The differential line receiver (U2) processes the input
signal to generate the CMOS clock signal. The clock signal’s duty cycle can be adjusted with potentiometer R13.
A 50% duty cycle is recommended. The clock signal is
available at the J1-2 header pin (CLK) and can be used
as the external clock for the logic analyzer.
Transmit Dual 10-Bit DAC Input
The MAX5865 integrates a dual 10-bit DAC capable of
operating with clock speeds up to 40Msps. The digital
data for the I and Q channels are alternately clocked
onto the DAC’s bus DD0–DD9. Data for the I channel is
latched on the falling edge of the clock signal and data
for the Q channel is latched on the rising edge of the
clock signal. The MAX5865 EV kit provides a 0.1in 2 x
10 header (J3) to interface a 10-bit CMOS pattern generator to the EV kit. The header data pins are labeled
on the board with the appropriate data bits designation.
Use the labels on the EV kit to match the data bits from
the pattern generator to the corresponding data pins on
header J3. Header pins J3-1 through J3-19 (odd pins)
are data pins DD0–DD9. All other header pins are connected to digital ground OGND.
Transmit Dual DAC Outputs
The MAX5865 transmit DAC outputs are ±400mV
P-P
full-
scale differential analog signals and are biased to
1.4VDC common mode. The full-scale output and DC
common-mode level are set by the internal voltage reference. A variation in the reference voltage results in proportional changes to the DAC full-scale output and the
DC common-mode level. The ID and QD outputs are
simultaneously updated on the rising edge of the clock
signal. The differential ID and QD output signals can be
sampled at the IDP, IDN, QDP, and QDN PC pads or
converted to single-ended signals using on-board operational-amplifier circuits. Configure jumpers JU5, JU6,
JU7, and JU8 to select the output signal format. See
Tables 2 and 3 to configure jumpers JU5–JU8. When
jumpers JU5–JU8 are configured for operational-amplifier
conversion, the differential signals are converted into a
50Ω single-ended signal with operational amplifiers U3
and U4. The single-ended output signals can be sampled at the ID SMA connector for the ID channel and QD
SMA connector for the QD channel. When jumpers
JU5–JU8 are configured for DC-coupled differential outputs, the DC-coupled differential signals can be sampled
at the IDP and IDN PC pads for the ID channel. The QD
channel can be probed at the QDP and QDN PC pads.

Receive Dual ADC Analog Inputs
The MAX5865 integrates a dual 8-bit ADC that accepts
differential or single-ended analog input signals. The
inputs are simultaneously sampled on the rising edge
of the clock. The EV kit is designed to accept differential or single-ended, AC- or DC-coupled input signals
with full-scale amplitude of less than 1.024V
P-P
(+4dBm). Ensure that the ADC input is not overdriven
by observing the output digital codes and adjusting the
input signal level for code of -0.5dB full scale. See
Table 4 for instructions to configure jumpers JU1, JU2,
JU3, JU4, JU9, and JU10 for the desired analog input.
During single-ended operation the signal is applied
directly to the ADC input. While in differential mode, an
on-board transformer uses the single-ended analog
input to generate a differential analog signal that is
applied at the ADC’s differential input pins.
The EV kit does not include analog input filters for the
ADC channels. Note that function generators exhibit
high harmonic distortions that could degrade the true
performance of the ADC. Select appropriate filters per
specific applications, test tones, and improve the signal
integrity of the function generators.
Note: When a differential signal is applied to the ADC,
the positive and negative input pins of the ADC each
receive half of the input signal supplied at SMA connectors IA and QA with an offset voltage of VDD/2.
Receive Dual 8-Bit ADC Output
The 8-bit digital output data for the IA and QA channels
are multiplexed at output data bus DA0–DA7. The IA
channel data is available on the falling edge of the clock.
The QA channel data is available on the rising edge of
the clock. The MAX5865 EV kit provides a 0.1in 2 x 10
header (J1) to interface with a logic-analyzer or dataacquisition system. The header data pins are labeled on
the board with the appropriate data bit designations. Use
the labels on the EV kit to match the output data bits to
nected to digital ground OGND.
Reference Voltage Options
tion that can be selected by applying a voltage input to
the REFIN pin. The reference voltage sets the full-scale
input voltage of the ADC and the full-scale output voltage of the DAC. The MAX5865 EV kit provides jumper
JU11 and the REFIN PC board pad that allows access
to the input pin and selects one of the two reference
modes: internal reference mode or buffered external
reference mode. See Table 5 for instructions to select
the voltage reference mode. Using an external reference enhances accuracy and drift performance or can
be used for gain control.

Table 5. Voltage Reference Modes
REFIN VOLTAGE REFERENCE MODE
VDD
(shunt across jumper JU11)
Internal reference mode. Internal reference voltage equal to 0.512V. Sets
the full-scale ADC input to 1.024V
P-P
and DAC output voltage to 400mV
P-P
.
External 1.024V
(remove shunt from jumper JU11)
Buffered external reference mode. ADC full-scale input voltage set to
REFIN. DAC full-scale output voltage proportional to REFIN.
Loopback Test
The MAX5865 EV kit circuit provides header J2 that,
when configured, connects the ADC digital output bus
to the DAC digital input. This allows a preliminary evaluation of the MAX5865 using analog input signals only.
Note: Configuring header J2 supplies an 8-bit output
pattern to the 10-bit input, resulting in a loss of the DAC
performance. Install shunts across the J2 pin headers
to connect the DA7 output bit to the DD9 input bit, DA6
output bit to the DD8 input bit, etc. The maximum frequency for the ADC output loopback to DAC input is
25MHz. The maximum frequency for the ADC output
loopback DAC input can be increased to 30MHz by
changing resistors R37 through R44 to 25Ω.
TDD Mode
A time-division duplex (TDD) operating mode can also
be implemented by connecting the ADC digital output
to the DAC digital input bus. Use the MAX5865 EV kit
software to switch between receive and transmit mode
to implement TDD mode. Operating in this configuration, the ADC digital buffer (U5) is bypassed. Avoid
excessive digital ground currents by keeping the digital
bus capacitance to a minimum in this mode. Refer to
the FDD and TDD Modes section in the MAX5865 data
sheet for further details.
Evaluating the MAX5864 or MAX5863
The MAX5865 EV kit can be used to evaluate the
MAX5864 or MAX5863, which are pin and function
compatible with the MAX5865. The MAX5863 operates
at clock frequencies of >2MHz, but ≤7.5MHz. The
MAX5864 operates at clock frequencies >7.5MHz, but
≤22MHz. Replace the MAX5865 (U1) with the MAX5864
or the MAX5863 and refer to the respective data sheet
for detailed technical information.
Board Layout
The MAX5865 EV kit is a four-layer board design optimized for high-speed signals. All high-speed signal
lines are routed through 50Ω impedance-matched
transmission lines. The length of these 50Ω transmis-
sion lines is matched to within 40 mils (1mm) to minimize layout-dependent data skew. The board layout
separates the digital and analog ground plane of the
circuit for optimum performance.
