CDB5560-2
1. INTRODUCTION
The CDB5560-2 evaluation board is a platform for evaluating the CS5560 ADC performance. The eval-
uation board is designed to connect to the SPI serial port of a processor or data capture system or will
interface directly to the CapturePlus II data acquisition system available from Cirrus Logic. The
CapturePlus II data acquisition system is a powerful integrated hardware/software tool designed to fully
exercise the CDB5560-2 and other Cirrus Logic evaluation boards.
The CDB5560-2 evaluation board is designed to simplify the hardware setup required to evaluate the
CS5560. Interfacing the CDB5560-2 evaluation board to a user-supplied data capture system can be as
simple as connecting the SPI port and using the CDB5560-2 default hardware configuration. In this con-
figuration simply press the Reset switch on the CDB5560-2 and it will automatically begin transmitting
data to the data capture system.
All evaluation board functionality for evaluating the CS5560 ADC is accessed through the connector in-
terface and board-level options.
The CS5560 delta-sigma ADC produces fully settled conversions to full specified accuracy at 50 kSps.
