2.1 MCP37X1X-200 12-BIT EVALUATION KIT FEATURES
This MCP37X1X-200 12-Bit Evaluation Kit is a fully assembled, programmed and
tested solution (with the exception of a clock source) to evaluate and demonstrate the
MCP37X1X-200 operating performance.
The evaluation kit has the following features:
• Programmable Full-Scale Analog Input Range
• Dynamic Performance Monitoring
• Evaluation of Performance Metrics, such as: SNR, SFDR, INL, DNL, etc.
• User-Programmable Registers
• Real-Time Monitoring of Power Consumption
• Digital Post Processing Options: Decimation Filter, Digital Down-Conversion, CW
Beamforming, Noise-Shaping Requantizer, etc.
• Ability to Save and Load Software Configurations
• Ability to Save and Load Raw Data for User Post-Processing
The evaluation kit features a sample rate of up to 200 Msps. Since the device can
support up to eight input channels, the effective sample rate per channel is a function
of the number of channels enabled. Refer to
Table 2-1 for a detailed list of the input
sample rate per channel.
For information about the device features, refer to the MCP37211-200/MCP37D11-200
Data Sheet – “200 Msps, 12-Bit Low-Power ADC with 8-Channel MUX”
(DS20005355).
