... EVAL-ADF7020-XDBX HARDWARE DESCRIPTION The RF module, which is plugged into the mother board, consists of the ADF7020 or ADF7020-1 device, output matching circuit optimized for operation in a certain frequency band, harmonic filter, PLL loop filter, de-coupling and xtal. This RF module provides a low-cost, optimally matched RF reference design which you can use as a starting point for your design ...

... EVAL-ADF7020- 1DBX boards is shown in Figure7. If you are using a different length of PCB track to the ADI Evaluation boards you need to take this into consideration. ADIsimPLL will give you the total external inductance (chip inductor + PCB track) needed for a given frequency range so that your desired frequency band lies in the middle of the range where possible ...

... For direct programming of the ADF7020/ADF7020-1 , click on the Registers button. This allows you to enter Hex values into individual registers. This is useful for de-bugging the register settings that you will use in your embedded microcontroller Figure 11. Software Front Panel Display Rev Page EVAL-ADF7020DBX ...

... ADF7020/ADF7020-1. Initial Setup As described in the Hardware Description section, the evaluation board is divided into two module containing the ADF7020 and a mother-board which accepts the RF module and contains the power supply block and some I/O pins. You need to mount the RF module onto the mother- board, ensuring correct alignment by having the drill-holes in the module above the screw-holders on the mother board ...

... Test Procedure for the ADF7020/ADF7020 mode Figure 13. Evaluation board setup for Rx mode Use a supply of 3V and the setup as shown in Figure 13 important to note that the ADF7020/ADF7020-1 uses a low-IF architecture where the IF is operating at 200kHz. This means the LO frequency should be set to 200kHz below the incoming RF frequency ...

... EVAL-ADF7020-XDBX 13. If you don’t have a built-in BER tester you can estimate the sensitivity point, by reducing the level on the frequency generator until you see the RxTxData waveform ‘flickering’ which corresponds to errors in the recevied data. Typically if you see a flicker/error once per second you can roughly estimate this to be the sensitivity point ...

... OR ADF7020-1DBX The EVAL-ADF70XXMB2 boards which contain an embedded microcontroller running a wireless network protocol is the simplest way to setup and RF Link. If you are using the EVAL- ADF70XXMB boards it is still possible to setup a basic link using the antennas and software provided. The most straight- forward way to do this is to have one board acting as a dedicated Transmitter and one board as the dedicated Receiver ...
