1 Overview The ADS8332EVMV2-PDK is a platform for evaluating the performance of the ADS8332 SAR ADC, which is an 8-channel, 16-bit, 4.096-V, multiplexed input ADC device. The evaluation kit includes the ADS8332EVMV2 board and the precision host interface (PHI) controller board that enables the accompanying computer software to communicate with the ADC over USB for data capture and analysis.
There are two devices on the EVM with which the PHI communicates: the ADS8332 ADC (over serial interface) and the EEPROM (over I C). The EEPROM comes preprogrammed with the information required to configure and initialize the ADS8332EVMV2-PDK platform. After the hardware is initialized, the EEPROM is no longer used. 3.1 ADS8332 Digital Interface The ADS8332EVMV2-PDK communicates with the PHI controller through SPI connections.
Download the latest version of the EVM GUI installer from the Tools and Software folder of the ADS8332EVMV2-PDK, and run the GUI installer to install the EVM GUI software. Administrator privileges on the PC are required in order to install the EVM software. Accept the license agreements and follow the on-screen...
LEDs D1 and D2 on the PHI starts blinking to indicate that the PHI is booted up and communicating with the PC. The resulting LED indicators are shown in Figure 6-1. Figure 6-1.
