Q
How could a University order the EVAL Boards for the ADN2531?Nothing in stock and it says “contact ADI”
A
In general, we do not offer “free bean” samples now. You might need to talk toDoug and get his approval for a loaner board.
If this University customer wants to buy one cheap laser source, they need to
buy EVAL-ADN2531-NPZ
(we need a lot of lab optimization work to get an optimal eye from the board so
we only supply/recommend it to tier one customers).
If the University customer wants to use their own lasers, they better buy one
EVAL-ADN2531-NTZ (without laser populated).
A new lot EVAL-ADN2531-NTZ EVB would take about 4~6 weeks to build when we have
a real order in place.
Or we will build the new EVB inventory per pipe capacity and the market demand
priorities.
