Overview
This document is intended to guide users step-by-step through the AFE5803EVM Evaluation Module
(EVM) setup and test . The EVM is shipped with a default configuration from the manufacturer. With this
configuration, the onboard CMOS clock is used for a analog-to-digital converter sampling clock. No
external clock generator is required. Users need to provide the input signal for measurement from a signal
generator.
Detail explanation regarding the jumpers, connectors, and test points appear in Section 11. The graphical
user interface (GUI) can be downloaded from the TI Web site.

Default Configuration
Figure 1 shows the default configuration of the EVM from the factory. The accompanying list identifies the
basic components on the EVM board.

Test Setup
Two EVMs are required to evaluate the AFE5803 device. The following illustration shows the exact setup
of these two boards and external connectors. For the default configuration as shown in Figure 1, it is
unnecessary to have an external sampling clock and external Vcntl supply. The onboard CMOS clock and
onboard Vcntl are used.

Launch the TSW1400 GUI. For information on how to download this GUI see . The Message window
displays the following message to indicate that the setup of the TSW1400EVM and AFE5803EVM is
working properly. If a different message or an error message appears, contact TI FAE.
Select AFE5803, 14 bits, MSB first from the GUI.
ADC Sampling Rate is fixed at 40 MHz; this is the onboard CMOS clock frequency.
ADC Input Frequency – enter 2M, and the GUI calculates the real coherent frequency to 2.00439453M.

Select the Single Tone FFT page at the TSW1400 GUI.
Connect Channel 1 of the AFE5803EVM to a signal generator through an LP filter. If an LP filter is not
present, the result will not be good.
Set the amplitude of the signal generator to -25dBm.
Set the frequency of the signal generator to 2.00439453M to match the GUI.
Change the window option to Hanning. This is because the input signal and the onboard CMOS clock
are noncoherent.
Press the Capture button to get the test result.
Repeat for Channel 2 through Channel 8.
