ADS1256EVM and ADS1256EVM-PDK
This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the ADS1256EVM, both by itself and
as part of the ADS1256EVM-PDK. This EVM is an evaluation fixture for the
(ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It also serves as an evaluation platform for the ADS1255, which is
a proper subset of the ADS1256. It allows evaluation of all aspects of the ADS1256 device. A complete
circuit description, schematic diagram, and bill of materials are included.
