+Overview
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The EVAL-AD4630-24FMCZ, EVAL-AD4030-24FMCZ and EVAL-AD4630-16FMCZ evaluation
+boards enable quick and easy evaluation of the AD4X3X family of 24-bit and
+16-bit precision successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital
+converters (ADCs).
+The :adi:`AD4630-24 <en/products/AD4630-24.html>` and
+:adi:`AD4630-16 <en/products/AD4630-16.html>` are 2 MSPS per channel, low power,
+dual channel 24-bit or 16-bit SAR ADCs while the
+:adi:`AD4030-24 <en/products/AD4030-24.html>` is a single channel 24-bit
+precision SAR ADC that supports up to 2 MSPS per channel. The evaluation boards
+demonstrate the performance of either the AD4630-24, AD4030-24 or AD4630-16 and
+provide a configurable analog front end (AFE) for a variety of system
+applications.
+
+Features:
+
+-  2 MSPS per channel, 24-bit or 16-bit resolution with no missing codes
+-  Guaranteed maximum +/-0.9 ppm INL
+-  Low noise performance
+-  On-board voltage reference, clock source, and ADC drivers
+-  Versatile analog signal conditioning circuitry
+-  Flexi-SPI serial interface with multiple SDO lanes
+   (1, 2, or 4 per channel)
+-  Optional DDR data clocking
+-  On-chip sample averaging (power of 2, up to 65536 samples)
+-  FMC-LPC system board connector
+-  ACE PC software for configuration and data analysis (time and frequency
+   domain)
+-  Compatible with other off-the-shelf controller boards
+
+Applications:
+
+-  Automatic test equipment (ATE)
+-  Precision data acquisition systems
+-  Power quality analysis and grid monitoring
+-  Vibration analysis and condition monitoring
+-  Medical and scientific instrumentation
+-  Industrial process control
