MAX5318 Evaluation System Evaluates: MAX5318 General Description Features The MAX5318 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a proven S On-Board Direct Digital Synthesis (Xilinx design to evaluate the MAX5318 18-bit high-accuracy volt- Spartan -3A FPGA) age output DAC with digital gain and offset control. The S On-Board Waveform Memory (1M x 24-Bit SRAM) EV kit also includes Windows XP -, Windows Vista -, and S On-Board +4.096V Ultra-High-Precision Voltage Windows 7-compatible software that provides a simple Reference (MAX6126) graphical user interface (GUI) for exercising the features of the IC. S SMA Connectors for Waveform Synchronization The MAX5318 evaluation system (EV system) consists of and DAC Output the EV kit and a companion MAXUSB2XILINXMB serial S Proven High-Performance 18-Bit DAC PCB Layout interface board. The MAXUSB2XILINXMB interface board S Stand-Alone and GUI Operation Modes allows a PC to control the SPI interface and GPIOs using its USB port. Order the EV system for a complete PC-based S Eight Diagnostic LEDs evaluation of the IC. S Five Pushbuttons For Functionality Tests The EV system includes an on-board direct digital syn- S High-Speed SPI Interface thesizer (DDS) that generates precision waveforms (sine, triangle, rising ramp, falling ramp, square, and arbitrary). S High-Speed USB 2.0 USB-PC Connection The DDS clock can be selected from 375kHz to 10kHz. (Cable Included) Waveform amplitude and offset can be controlled by the S Windows XP-, Windows Vista-, and Windows DDS or the internal controls of the IC. Arbitrary waveforms 7-Compatible Software are defined by a simple CSV file that can easily be created S RoHS Compliant from Excel or many other software programs. A synchro- nization output is also provided that indicates when a new S Fully Assembled and Tested cycle starts. In addition, all waveforms can be synchro- nized to an external signal. Ordering Information appears at end of data sheet. The EV kit comes with an 18-bit MAX5318GTG+ precision DAC installed.
