Analog Devices Inc. EV-AD74416H-ARDZ Evaluation Board

Analog Devices Inc. EV-AD74416H-ARDZ Evaluation Board is a comprehensive tool designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the AD74416H quad-channel, software-configurable input/output device tailored for industrial control applications. The Analog Devices EV-AD74416H-ARDZ board integrates a custom power solution using the MAX17691B isolated flyback converter and provides digital isolation through ADuM341E and ADuM342E isolators. The board supports a wide range of analog and digital I/O configurations, including voltage/current input/output, digital input/output, thermocouple, and RTD measurements. The board interfaces with a PC via the EVAL-SDP-CK1Z (SDP-K1) controller board and is managed through Analog Devices’ PC-based Analysis | Control | Evaluation (ACE ) software, enabling full control and data acquisition over SPI. With a robust design and flexible configuration, the EV-AD74416H-ARDZ serves as a powerful platform for evaluating the AD74416H in real-world industrial and automation scenarios.
