PGA450Q1EVM-S User's Guide and TIDA-00151 UART
The Texas Instruments PGA450-Q1 small form-factor evaluation module (EVM) allows users to evaluate
the operation and performance of the PGA450-Q1 fully integrated system-on-chip analog front-end for
ultrasonic sensing. The small form-factor layout of this EVM is equivalent to that of an end-product form
factor, allowing users to easily integrate this PGA450-Q1-based sensor module into a real system without
the need for additional prototypes.

  • Page 2: Introduction

    PGA450Q1EVM before transitioning to evaluation with the PGA450Q1EVM-S. Setup and Operation This section describes how to setup and configure the PGA450Q1EVM-S for basic operation. A detailed description of connectors, jumpers, and test points are provided in addition to the typical operation setup of the EVM.
  • Page 3 The TI GER (Texas Instruments general equipment resource) USB interface board is included with the purchase of the PGA450Q1EVM, and cannot be purchased separately. Purchase the PGA450Q1EVM or develop a custom USB interface tool to program or evaluate the PGA450-Q1 device on the PGA450Q1EVM-S platform.

  • Page 5 Setup and Operation www.ti.com 2.2.2 Programming the PGA450-Q1 EEPROM The PGA450Q1EVM-S is preloaded with the EEPROM values listed in Table 2. These instructions are provided in the event that the user prefers to modify the EEPROM using the PGA450Q1EVM GUI, rather than the corresponding UART command.
  • Page 6 (2) The Reload EEPROM button copies the EEPROM memory into the EEPROM cache. The values in the GUI are then updated. Figure 3.

  • Page 10 [3] 0x00: ignored but required checksum Software To modify the source-code made available through the PGA450Q1EVM-S firmware installer, download the Keil C51 Development Tool for all 8051 devices, which includes the uVision IDE required to open and edit the PGA450-Q1 project file. Keil products use a license management system. Without a current license, the product runs as an evaluation or lite edition which has a few limitations.
  • Page 11 The FIFO RAM data can be read over SPI, allowing an external microprocessor to process the data. To provide a quick evaluation of the performance of the PGA450-Q1 device using the PGA450Q1EVM-S and GUI without having to develop sophisticated 8051 μP software, the GUI provides an intuitive interface tab, the Evaluation Tab, that collects all required information regarding the transducer drive and receive.
