Board eases evaluation of the ADF5904 4-channel 24GHz receiver down-converter

The Analog Devices EV-ADF5904SD2Z evaluation board is now stocked by Mouser. It is designed to enable designers to easily evaluate the performance of the ADF5904 4-channel, 24GHz receiver down-converter. Each channel of the ADF5904 receiver downconverter includes a single-ended RF input with an on-chip balun followed by a differential low noise amplifier (LNA), and a downconverter mixer with differential output buffers. The EV-ADF5904SD2Z evaluation board includes the ADF5904, five high frequency SMA connectors for the local oscillator (LO) input, four receiver (Rx) inputs, eight SMA connectors for the baseband outputs, banana connectors for power supply, and a connector for serial interface.
