GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The EVAL-CN0285-EB1Z is the evaluation board described in  
the Circuits From the LabCircuit Note CN-0285, Broadband  
Low EVM Direct Conversion Transmitter. A photo of the board  
is shown in Figure 1. It contains the ADF4351 synthesizer, the  
ADL5375 wideband transmit modulator, and ultralow noise  
LDOs. The board can be controlled using the ADF4351  
programming software. A USB cable is included with the board

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE  
The default loop filter is set to 70 kHz. Using a charge pump  
setting of 2.5 mA is recommended.  
POWER SUPPLIES  
The user must apply 5.5 V to the VSUPPLY power connectors  
(4 mm banana connectors). An LED, D6, indicates when USB  
power is available, and another LED, D5, indicates when the  
main board is powered. Switch SW-EXT is used to switch in the  
5.5 V supply.  
IQ INPUTS  
The ADL5375 has four differential IQ inputs. These are accessi-  
ble from the SMA connectors and should be connected to an  
appropriate analog baseband IQ source such as the Rhode &  
Schwarz AMIQ. Set the dc bias voltage for the IQ inputs at 0.5 V.  
RF/LO OUTPUTS  
The ADL5375 RF output is ac-coupled out to the RFOUT SMA.  
There are also two LO output SMA connectors that can be used  
to view the filtered ADF4351 RF outputs on a spectrum analyzer.  
When connecting to an analyzer, terminate the unused LO  
output with a 50 Ω termination. When measuring EVM or  
adjacent channel leakage current (ACLR), disconnect these LO  
outputs by removing Capacitors C72 and C73 to prevent  
loading the circuit.  
Figure 2. Loop Filter Layout  
REFERENCE SOURCE  
The 25 MHz TCXO from Rakon provides the necessary  
reference signal. An external REFIN can be used if desired.  
In this case, disable the on-board TCXO by removing R59.  
R9 can be populated with 50 Ω to match the impedance of the  
evaluation board to the external reference source.  
LOOP FILTER AND CHARGE PUMP CURRENT  
The loop filter schematic is included in the evaluation board  
and can be found at www.analog.com/CN0285-DesignSupport.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE QUICK START PROCEDURES  
Confirm that Analog Devices RFG.L Eval Board connected is  
displayed in the bottom left corner of the window. Otherwise,  
the software has no connection to the evaluation board. In this  
case, check that the cable connection and USB drivers are  
correctly installed.  
The control software for EVAL-CN0285-EB1Z uses the  
standard ADF4351 programming software. For more details on  
the installation of this software, consult UG-435, Evaluation  
Board for the ADF4351 Fractional-N PLL Frequency Synthesizer.  
After installing the software, run the software by clicking the  
ADI ADF435x file on the desktop or in the Start menu. The  
software front panel opens (see Figure 3).  
Program the RF output frequency in the Main Controls tab of  
the software front panel.
