The following instructions are a step-by-step guide to connecting the ADS9219EVM to the computer and evaluating the performance of the ADS9219.
- Review the default jumper settings and power
guidelines in Figure 3-1 below.
- Physically connect J1 of the TSWDC155EVM to J9 of
the ADS9219EVM. This component is the digital communications and power signal
connection in default configuration.
- Set jumper JP3 to the FMC_PWR [1-2] position so that the TSWDC155EVM provides power to the on-board DC/DC and LDO circuits. Otherwise, set JP3 to EXT_PWR [2-3] and connect an external 5.2V to 5.5V supply on screw terminal connection J4.
- Bypass any external USB hub and connect the USB on the TSWDC155EVM directly to the computer.
- Install the GUI as described in Section 3.2.1.
- Install the necessary USB drivers as described in
Section 3.2.2.
- Launch the GUI.
- Press the Initialize USB, Power Up, Program FPGA,
and Initialize ADS92xx buttons, in order from top to bottom, on the Config tab
to power up and configure the EVM. (See Section 3.2.3 for details.)
- Connect a 1 VPP, single-ended sine wave signal from a function generator to any AINxP SMA input connector.
- Select the number of samples to be at least 128k
points, and choose the Hanning window type for best frequency domain
results.
- Press the Start Capture button to collect
and analyze the data displayed on the appropriate CHx tab; see Section 3.2.4.
