Install Required Hardware

The ADRV9371 Evaluation Platform is comprised of three (3) components:

Analog Devices ADRV9371-W/PCBZ data converter board
Critical Link MitySOM®-A10S development kit p/n: 80-001201 (includes MitySOM-A10S SOM p/n: 80-001124, Fansink, Ethernet cable, and AC/DC 12V@5A Power Supply)
(2) 9" RG316 SMA RF Cable

Remove the backing from the underside of the heatsink to expose the thermal pad.
Position the fansink on the Arria® 10 with the 2-clip side closest to J3, the fan header. Make sure the 2-clip feet are under the FPGA.

Insert the 2-tab side of the provided fansink tool into the available slots on the clip and pull the handle up while pressing the clip down until it clicks under the FPGA.

● Plug the ADRV9371 board into the FMC (J300) connector on the Critical Link carrier card.

● Make sure the POWER switch is in the OFF position.

● Connect the 12VDC power source to P700 of the Critical Link Carrier board

● Connect the Ethernet cable between J400 and a PC

● Connect the microUSB cable between J600 and a PC

● Connect an RG316 SMA RF Cable between J306 and J201 of the ADRV9371® board.

● Connect an RG316 SMA RF Cable between J305 and J200 of the ADRV9371® board.

● Ensure that the BOOT MEDIA slide switch S200 is in the uSD position.

● Prepare the microSD card containing the software image and plug it into the slot on the bottom side of the SOM board

● Slide the POWER switch to the ON position.
