AD9371 & AD9375 Prototyping Platform User Guide

The ADRV9371-W/PRBZ, ADRV9371-N/PCBZ and ADRV9375-N/PCBZ are FMC radio cards for the AD9371 respectively AD9375, a highly integrated RF Transceiver™. While the complete chip level design package can be found on the the the ADI web site, information on the card and how to use it, the design package that surrounds it, and the software which can make it work can be found here.
