MAX555 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX555 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the o p e r a t i o n of the MAX555 12-bit, 300MHz DAC with ECL-compatible data and clock inputs. By supplying power, digital bit inputs, and a differential clock, the kit allows for quick evaluation of the MAX555's AC performance. The EV kit includes a MAX555. o Fast and Easy Performance Testing o Optimized PC Board Layout o SMA Connectors for All Digital Input and Output Voltages o Includes 50 Termination Resistors o On-Board Voltage Reference and VTT Generators

Quick Start
1) Connect the power supply to the MAX555 EV kit. The power-supply input pads are located along the top edge of the board. The board requires a power supply that provides +5V and -5.2V with a common ground. 2) Connect 50 cables to the VOUT and VOUT outputs with proper terminations. 3) Connect a word generator to the data inputs (D0D11) and the clock inputs. All of these inputs are 100k ECL compatible. 4) Turn on the power-supply and signal sources. 5) Observe the output waveforms on VOUT and VOUT.

Detailed Description
Digital Inputs
T h e MAX555 EV kit board has high-frequency SMA c o n n e c t o r s for the differential-clock and DAC data inputs. Each of these inputs has on-board 50 pulldown resistors terminated to -2V. The -2V supply is regulated down from the -5.2V power supply, as shown in F i g u r e 1. The MAX555 is set up in clocked mode (BYPASS = logic 0) on the EV kit board, with a 50 resistor (R13) connected to -2V. Clocked-mode operation is recommended for all high-speed applications. Removing R13 and connecting the BYPASS pin of the MAX555 to ground selects transparent data mode, as described in the MAX555 data sheet.
Power Supplies
The EV kit requires a -5.2V supply (at 425mA nominal) for the DAC and 50 terminations, and a +5V supply (at 12mA nominal) for the on-board reference circuit, and ground.
DAC Reference Options
The MAX555 uses an external +1V reference, which is supplied on the EV kit board using the circuit shown in Figure 1. This reference voltage can be adjusted to different values between 1.2V and 0.4V using potentiometer R 1 9 . V R E F c a n be measured at the V R E F p a d . The MAX555 typically achieves its best spurious performance with VREF values in the 0.6V to 0.8V range, as described in the MAX555 data sheet. Experimentation with different VREF values is recommended to optimize the AC performance in your application.
DAC Outputs
T h e MAX555 has complementary voltage outputs, VOUTand VOUT. Both have 50 output impedances and must be terminated correctly to achieve the best performance. Applications requiring a single-ended output should use VOUT, since it is trimmed to higher accuracy than VOUT. Both VOUT and VOUT should always be terminated with 50 to ground for best performance. An alternative way to achieve a single-ended output is to drive a balun transformer with both VOUT and VOUT. This reduces even-order harmonics in the output.
