Subject: [HBTE] Interest in ADF4351 evaluation SW from AD for Arduino interface?
AD has create a nice open source SW package for evaluation of the ADF4351.
It is intended for use with the AD ADF4351 evaluation board but these boards are very expensive and use a complex FPGA to interface between USB and the ADF4351.
I modified the ADF4351 evaluation SW to make use of an Arduino based interface between USB and the AD4351 so you can test the chinese ADF4351 boards
As Arduino you can use a 5 volt version such as a nano or uno with level shift resistors or a 3.3 volt Arduino such as the zero without level shifters
If there is interest I can make the modified evaluation SW and the Arduino SW available to this group.

I'm not going to "support" this SW. If you are not able to find your own way this SW is NOT for you......
I'd like to have a copy and details relating to the mod since seems interesting from a programming exercise and for use also once I have the ADF4351 and other modules as I assume will function with other ADF modules.
Great to read and see you worked on as I was wondering about the ADF4371 capabilities to create a simpler evaluation like cost effective board. Awesome man!
