EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
POWER SUPPLIES
The EVAL-AD5341DBZ evaluation board can be powered
either from the SDP-B port or externally by the J5 and J6
connectors, as described in Table 1.
The nanoDAC® EVAL-MBnanoDAC-SDZ motherboard supports
single and dual power supplies.
Both AGND and DGND inputs are provided on the EVAL-
AD5341DBZ evaluation board. The AGND and DGND planes
are connected at one location on the EVAL-MBnanoDAC-SDZ. It
is recommended that AGND and DGND not be connected
elsewhere in the system to avoid ground loop problems.
All supplies are decoupled to ground with 10 μF tantalum and
0.1 μF ceramic capacitors.
Table 1. Power Supply Connectors
Connector No. Label Voltage
J5, Pin 1 (J5-1) VDD Analog positive power supply, VDD;
5.5 V single and dual supply
J5, Pin 2 (J5-2) AGND Analog ground
J5, Pin 3 (J5-3) VSS Analog negative power supply, VSS;
−5.5 V dual supply
J6, Pin 1 (J6-1) VLOGIC Digital supply from 1.8 V to VDD
J6, Pin 2 (J6-2) DGND Digital ground
LINK OPTIONS
Various link options are incorporated in the EVAL-MBnanoDAC-
SDZ and must be set for the required operating conditions before
using the EVAL-AD5341DBZ. Table 2 describes the positions of
the links to control the EVAL-AD5341DBZ via the SDP-B board
using a PC and external power supplies. The functions of these link
options are described in detail in Table 4. The positions listed in
Table 2 to Table 4 match the e valuation board imprints (se e
Figure 11).

DAUGHTER BOARD LINK OPTIONS
The EVAL-AD5341DBZ daughter board has two link options. The
links control the settings for the reference BUF and CLR pins.
Table 3 shows how the links are configured.
