ADSxx53EVM-PDK Kit Operation
This section describes how to use ADSxx53EVM-PDK and the ADSxx53EVM software to configure the
EVM and acquire data.
6.1
About the Simple Capture Card Controller Board
The simple capture card controller board provides the USB interface between the PC and the
ADSxx53EVM. The controller board is designed around the AM335x processor, a USB 2.0 high-speed
capability, 32-bit ARM core. The simple capture card controller board incorporates an onboard FPGA
subsystem and 256 MB of onboard DDR SRAM memory.
The simple capture card controller board is not sold as a development board, and it is not available
separately. TI cannot offer support for the simple capture card controller board except as part of this EVM
kit.

Loading the ADSxx53EVM-PDK Software
The ADS835x EVM software (this software also supports the ADSxx53EVM-PDK) provides control over
the settings of the ADSxx53. Adjust the ADSxx53EVM settings when the EVM is not acquiring data.
During acquisition, all controls are disabled and settings cannot be changed.
Settings on the ADSxx53EVM correspond to settings described in the

Step 2. Start the ADS835x EVM software. Go to Start → All Programs →Texas Instruments →
ADS835x EVM and click ADS835x EVM to load the software.
Step 3. Verify that the software detects the ADSxx53EVM. The GUI identifies the EVM hardware that
is connected to the controller board and displays either Loading the ADSxx53evm Settings or
Loading the ADS7854evm Settings. After the settings are loaded, ADSxx53EVM GUI or
ADS7854 EVM GUI displays at the top of the GUI screen, as shown in
