THE SSM2167 EVALUATION BOARD
The evaluation board is a convenient means to evaluate and
understand the operation of the SSM2167. This application note
provides a basic explanation of how the board is set up and how
to use it to evaluate the SSM2167. This document is only a
supplement and refers to figures contained in the product data
sheet. The current SSM2167 data sheet is available online at
www.analog.com.
This application note also contains the schematics and layout for
the evaluation board to allow easy modification and experimenta-
tion. Applications support is available from Analog Devices,
Inc., online at
1-800-ANALOGD or 1-800-262-5643.
BASIC CONNECTIONS AND SETUP
The board features simple, easy-to-use connections that allow
for a broad range of experimentation. The evaluation board is
available only with the SSM2167-1.
Power and Ground
The SSM2167 is optimized for operation at 3 V; however, it can
operate from a wide range of supplies. Refer to the product data
sheet for the maximum limits. The SSM2167 board can be con-
nected to a bench power supply or two AA batteries. Power leads
need to be soldered into place at JP3. Alternatively, a header
jack can be soldered to the board to allow easy disconnection.
The power and ground connections are critical to the perfor-
mance of the board, so take care to ensure proper connection.
Shutdown Connection
Located at JP3, along with the power and ground, is the low
current shutdown connection. The board has a pull-up resistor
installed so that if no connection is made at that point, the part
operates in active mode. To enable the shutdown feature,
connect the SD (Pin 1) on JP3 to ground. To perform an in-
depth analysis on the shutdown current, the pull-up resistor, R5,
can be removed. The shutdown pin should not be left floating.
If R5 is removed, be sure to connect the SD (Pin 2) directly to
the supply or ground.

Signal Connections, Input, and Output
Signal sources can be connected to the evaluation board with
standard 3.5 mm jacks or leads which can be soldered directly
to the board at JP2 and JP3. The board uses 3.5 mm stereo
sockets with the signal on the tip and the sleeve connected to
the board ground; the ring is left floating. At both jumper
connections, a ground point is available to prevent noise.
The input jack is configured for maximum versatility. By
default, it is designed for use with an electret microphone
or input source. It can be changed easily to accommodate
dynamic microphones.
ELECTRET MICROPHONES
The evaluation board is configured with a 2.2 kΩ resistor (R4)
to the supply for use as a biasing resistor. It is connected directly
to the signal path so that both the jack and the jumper (JP2) can
be used as input connections. Standard computer electret micro-
phones can be used without modification because the ring and
tip are connected internally in the microphone. The input jack and
JP2 are decoupled from the input pin via a 0.1 μF capacitor (C1).
DYNAMIC MICROPHONES
If the board is to be used with a dynamic or self-powered
microphone, remove R4.
OUTPUT SIGNAL
The output jack is decoupled from the circuit via a 10 μF
capacitor (C2). The connection can be made at either JP1 or the
standard 3.5 mm jack, with the signal connection to the tip of
the plug. For listening tests, the output signal can be connected
directly from the 3.5 mm jack to an RCA input on a normal
audio amplifier using a standard stereo adapter cable. In this
case, use the left (white or black) RCA connection because it
corresponds with the tip of the 3.5 mm jack. The output of the
SSM2167 is not sufficient to drive headphones or other output
transducers without external amplification.
