Giga-Sample A/D Converter (ADC) Evaluation Boards & Development Systems

Introduction:
National's Ultra High Speed ADC evaluation boards and development systems are designed to help ease the evaluation and design-in of National's Ultra High Speed A/D Converters. There are two types of systems available for the ultra high speed ADCs: evaluation boards (with a suffix of "EVAL") and development systems and reference boards (with a suffix of "DEV" or "RB").

 

The Ultra High Speed A/D converter development systems and reference boards are self-contained and operate with proprietary software to set the operating parameters of the converter, then capture and analyze the data from the converter.

How to find the right evaluation board:
Select the type of A/D Converter or D/A Converter from the table above to find links to order an evaluation board or data capture board, download the users' guide, view product folders, and download the appropriate version of the WaveVision software. All Development Systems and Reference Boards capture data with the aid of a Xilinx FPGA.
