Additionally, there is an option to drive two of the ADCs with an external source. This source can be single-ended (board default through a transformer) or a differential signal (from a TRF3711xxEVM, for example). There also is an option to bypass the onboard oscillator with an external source. The EVM contains a TRF371125, an ADS5282 for data conversion, an FPGA for digital processing, a CDCE62005 for system clocks, and a DAC5672A to allow for data evaluation using just a spectrum analyzer. 1.1 EVM Frequency Configuration Options The TR371125 device is inherently broadband; however, the radio frequency (RF) and local oscillator (LO) inputs require differential signals which are achieved with the use of RF baluns. This EVM can be configured with a different balun to facilitate operation in the desired band. The default configuration includes 2-GHz baluns for both inputs. Table 1 summarizes the TRF3711xx device frequency options and lists the recommended balun for each device. Table 1.

TSW6011EVM System Block Diagram 1.3 Digital Processing Block Functions The FPGA receives the digital data from the ADC and converts it from serial to parallel format. The data then are split into two paths. One path converts the data back to unsigned serial data and determines which ADC output to route to the LVDS connector. The other path either bypasses or goes through the IQ Correction block. After IQ Correction processing, the data are interpolated by 2, processed through a finite impulse response (FIR) and then mixed to fs/4 (30.72 MHz). DAC sample rate is 122.88 MHz, and ADC sample rate is 61.44 MHz. The FPGA allows the user to perform the following functions. • Select the processing path between TRF3711 and SMA • Enable or disable the LVDS and CMOS data outputs • Enable or disable the IQ Correction algorithm • Digital gain control by 0.5dB step • Program ADC, PLL, and TRF371125 registers • Enable or disable the DC offset compensation algorithm • Set the LNA gain • Provide attenuation setting for TRF371125 SLWU070D – February 2010 – Revised August 2016 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2010–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated TSW6011EVM 3 Overview www.ti.com The FPGA digital processing block diagram is shown in Figure 2.

Digital gain can be controlled in 0.5 dB steps from -3 dB to 18 dB. For better signal quality such as EVM improvement, increase the digital dynamic range of the input signal to DAC5672. 11.5 dB of digital gain is recommended to avoid the input signal saturated to DAC5672. OFFSET When selected, the DC offset compensation is enabled. When disabled, the Compensation: DC offset compensation block is bypassed. IQ Correction Tap Shift Initial value is 13, which is coarse adaption. Users can choose the value of 18, Avg: which slows the adaption algorithm. Manual Tap Shift: This option is not recommended; however, it allows selection of a tap shift value ranging from 10 to 18. The tap shift value is automatically chosen inside the FPGA firmware based on input digital power.
