Download, read, and carefully follow each step in the appropriate Petaluma (MAXREFDES30#) ZedBoard Quick Start Guide.

Lab Measurements

Equipment used:

Voltage calibrator DVC-8500

Windows PC with two USB ports

Petaluma (MAXREFDES30#) board

ZedBoard kit

Take special care and use proper equipment when testing the Petaluma design. Duplication of the presented test data requires a

signal source with higher accuracy than the design being tested. A low distortion signal source is absolutely required to duplicate

the presented results. The input signal was generated using the Audio Precision SYS-2722. The FFTs were created using the FFT

control in SignalLab from Mitov Software.

rate, and a Blackman-Harris window at room temperature.
