generators can not provide a level of distortion low enough to Adjust the signal source at Analog Input J1 for a signal evaluate high resolution ADCs. amplitude of approximately 2V P-P , centered at ground. Scope the signals at TP12 and TP13 to be sure they 4.1 Software Installation are present at a 2V P-P level between ground and +2V.
If the displayed waveform appears to be garbage, or if the 5.1.1 Evaluating a Sine Wave FFT plot shows nothing but noise with no apparent signal, Set the ADC clock frequency to 7MSPS as follows: reset the evaluation board by pressing button S1 and try Be sure that a 14MHz oscillator (Y1) is in its socket, or again.
6.0 Computer-Board Communications Communication between the board and computer is through a parallel port connection at connector P1. The board responds to commands from the computer and uploads data requested by the computer. The RAM address is incremented by PLD U6, which clocks the ADC14071 output data into RAM.
