From the project

A low-cost alternative to the AD9744 evaulation board

The ersatz evaluation board is a low-cost alternative to the AD9744-FMC-EBZ evaluation board produced by Analog Devices which retails for approximately $500. The full BOM cost for this project including components, the board itself, tax, and shipping is about $100. The area of the PCB is 23 cm2 and it is designed to be built on standard 2-layer FR4 by any PCB fabricator. All components sit on the top of the board and the design is hand-solderable.
