ADCPro is a program for collecting, recording, and analyzing data from ADC evaluation boards. It is based on a number of plug-in programs, so it can be expanded easily with new test and data collection plug-ins. The ADS1256EVM-PDK is controlled by a plug-in that runs in ADCPro. For more information about ADCPro, see the ADCPro™...

It can be connected to any Modular EVM System interface card. The ADS1256EVM is available as a stand-alone printed circuit board (PCB) or as part of the ADS1256EVM-PDK, which includes an MMB0 motherboard and software. As a stand-alone PCB, the ADS1256EVM is useful for prototyping designs and firmware.
HPA-MCU Interface boards available from Texas Instruments, or the MMB0 if purchased as part of the ADS1256EVM-PDK. For a list of compatible interface and/or accessory boards for the EVM or the ADS1256, see the relevant product folder on the TI web site.
ADS1256EVM-PDK Kit Operation This section provides information on using the ADS1256EVM-PDK, including setup, program installation, and program usage. To prepare to evaluate the ADS1256 with the ADS1256EVM-PDK, complete the following steps: Step 1. Install the ADCPro software (if not already installed).
Software and Completing Driver Installation. Setting Up the ADS1256EVM-PDK The ADS1256EVM-PDK contains both the ADS1256EVM and the MMB0 motherboard; however, these devices are shipped unconnected. Follow these steps to set up the ADS1256EVM-PDK: Step 1. Unpack the ADS1256EVM-PDK kit.
The ADS1256EVM-PDK can be operated with a unipolar +5V supply or a bipolar ±5V supply. If the ADS1256EVM-PDK is to be operated in unipolar mode only, either an ac adapter or a lab power supply can be used. If the ADS1256EVM-PDK is to be operated in bipolar mode, a ±5V power supply must be connected;...
The program for evaluating the ADS1256EVM-PDK is called ADCPro. This program uses plug-ins to communicate with the EVM. The ADS1256EVM-PDK plug-in is included in the ADS1256EVM-PDK package.
Figure 22. ADS1256EVM-PDK Plug-In Display Window 3. The ADS1256EVM-PDK plug-in window has a status area at the top of the screen. When the plug-in is first loaded, the plug-in searches for the board. You will see a series of messages in the status area indicating this action.
Only one of each kind of plug-in can be loaded at a time. If you select a different plug-in, the previous plug-in is unloaded. Using the ADS1256EVM-PDK Plug-in The ADS1256EVM-PDK plug-in for ADCPro provides complete control over all settings of the ADS1256. It consists of a tabbed interface (see Figure 22), with different functions available on different tabs.
Once you have configured the ADS1256 for your test scenario, pressing the ADCPro Acquire button starts the collection of the number of datapoints specified in the Test plug-in Block Size control. The ADS1256EVM-PDK plug-in disables all the front panel controls while acquiring, and displays a progress bar as shown in Figure Figure 36.
