Either download both, or just download the EVM GUI; the run-time file can be downloaded through the EVM GUI during installation. The software can also be run online by clicking;...
C pullups. The IO ports of the Analog EVM Controller and level translators used on the BOOSTXL-DAC-PORT and DAC53204EVM can withstand a maximum of 3.6-V IO levels. The TI Launchpad also generates digital signals used to communicate with the EVM board.
Figure 2-6. Hardware Setup Guidelines 2.2.3 Electrostatic Discharge Warning Many of the components on the DAC53204EVM are susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Observe proper ESD handling precautions when unpacking and handling the EVM, including the use of a grounded wrist strap at an approved ESD workstation.
Figure 3-1. BOOSTXL-DAC-PORT Hardware Block Diagram 3.1.1.1 Signal Definition of the BOOSTXL-DAC-PORT The BOOSTXL-DAC-PORT provides hardware connectors for the TI Launchpad (J13, J14), external power (J12), the DAC53204EVM (J1, J2), and the external function extender (J4, J5). The descriptions are provided in Table 3-1 through Table 3-5.
Detailed Description www.ti.com 3.1.2 Theory of Operation for the DAC53204EVM Hardware The block diagram of the DAC53204EVM board is displayed in Figure 3-2. The EVM board connects to BOOSTXL-DAC-PORT with two 16-pin connectors. These headers provide access to all DAC pins.
