A | Page 2 of 13 EV-ADF4356SD1Z User Guide UG-1062 GETTING STARTED SOFTWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES EVALUATION BOARD SETUP PROCEDURES See the ADF4356 product page for the EV-ADF4356SD1Z control software. For the software installation procedure, see the PLL Software Installation Guide. To run the software, 1. 2. 3. Click the ADF4356 file on the desktop or from the Start menu. On the Select Device and Connection tab, choose ADF4356 and SDP board (black), and then click Connect (see Figure 2). When connecting the board, allow 5 sec to 10 sec for the label on the status bar to change. 15087-002 Under the File menu, the current settings can be saved to, and loaded from, a text file. Figure 2. Software Front Panel Display--Select Device and Connection Rev. A | Page 3 of 13 UG-1062 EV-ADF4356SD1Z User Guide EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE The EV-ADF4356SD1Z requires the SDP-S platform that uses the EVAL-SDP-CS1Z (SDP-B is not recommended). The EV-ADF4356SD1Z schematics are shown in Figure 6, and Figure 7. The evaluation board silkscreen is shown in Figure 8. POWER SUPPLIES The board is powered by a 5.5 V power supply connected to the red and black banana connectors. Connect the red connector to a 5.5 V power supply and the black connector to ground. Reversal of the connections to the red and black banana connectors can cause catastrophic failure of the HMC1060 low noise regulator. The HMC1060 low noise regulator is configured to supply 5 V for the charge pump and VCO supply pins, and 3.3 V for the remaining supply pins. REFERENCE SOURCE The evaluation board contains a 122.88 MHz differential output TCXO from Vectron International. If preferred, the user may supply either a single-ended or differential reference input to REFINA/REFINB SMA connectors. When using an external reference, remove R7 to disconnect the power rail to the TCXO. To use a single-ended REFINx, connect a low noise, 122.88 MHz reference source to the REFINA SMA connector. Remove Resistor R6 (100 ) and insert R10 (50 ) and R15 (50 ). To use a differential REFINx, connect the differential signal to the REFINA and the REFINB SMA connectors. The differential REFINA/REFINB SMA connectors can operate to a 500 MHz input frequency. RF OUTPUT DEFAULT CONFIGURATION The EV-ADF4356SD1Z has two pairs of SMA output connectors: RFOUTA+/RFOUTA- and RFOUTB+/RFOUTB- (differential outputs). Because they are sensitive to impedance mismatch, connect the RF outputs to equal load impedances. If only one port of a differential pair is used, terminate the complementary port with an equal load terminator (in general, a 50 terminator). All components necessary for local oscillator (LO) or clock generation are inserted on the board. This board is shipped with the ADF4356 synthesizer with an integrated VCO, a differential 122.88 MHz reference TCXO, and a 80 kHz loop filter (ICP = 0.9 mA). LOOP FILTER The loop filter schematic is included in the board schematic in Figure 6. For lowest rms phase noise, use the following components (that are inserted on the evaluation board) with a 0.9 mA charge pump current: * * C22 = 120 pF, C29 = 2700 pF, C33 = 22 pF R33 = 2.7 k, R34 = 10 k Narrower loop filter bandwidths have lower spurious signals.

Evaluation Setup Block Diagram Rev. A | Page 5 of 13 UG-1062 EV-ADF4356SD1Z User Guide EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE MAIN CONTROLS The Main Controls tab (see Figure 4) selects the RF and user configurable register settings. Consult the register descriptions of the ADF4356 data sheet for details. Default settings are recommended for most registers. In the Register 4 section, program the CP current dropdown menu to match the value used for the loop filter design. 15087-005 In the RF Settings section, ensure that the VCOout (MHz) box equals the VCO frequency. Set the Output divider dropdown menu to give the required RFoutA (MHz). Ensure that the Reference freq. value equals the applied reference signal. The PFD frequency is calculated from the reference frequency, the R counter, the reference doubler, and the reference divide by 2. Ensure that the value in PFD (MHz) matches the value specified in the loop filter design. Figure 4. Software Front Panel Display--Main Controls Rev. A | Page 6 of 13 EV-ADF4356SD1Z User Guide UG-1062 EVALUATION AND TEST Install the ADF4356 software (see the PLL Software Installation Guide). 2. Follow the hardware driver installation procedure (Windows XP only). 3. Connect a 50 terminator to RFOUTA-. 4. Connect the EV-ADF4356SD1Z board to the SDP-S board. 5. Connect the 5.5 V power supply to the banana connectors and power on the board. 6. Connect the USB cable from the SDP-S board to the PC. 7. Run the ADF4356 software. 8. Select ADF4356 and SDP board (black) in the Select Device and Connection tab of the software front panel display window (see Figure 2). 9. Click the Main Controls tab, and set the VCOout (MHz) to a frequency of 5000 MHz. 10. Click Write Init. Seq. 11. Connect the spectrum analyzer to SMA connector RFOUTA+, see Figure 3 for a typical evaluation setup. 12. Measure the output spectrum and single-sideband phase noise. Figure 5 shows a phase noise plot of the SMA RFOUTA+ equal to 5 GHz. 1. -80 -90 M1 PHASE NOISE (dBc/Hz) -100 Rev.
