SETUP AND USING THE DA9026 LIGHTSHOW
PROCESSOR EVALUATION BOARD
The DA9026 lightshow processor evaluation board
Summary
The DA9026 Evaluation Board has been
produced
to
demonstrate
solution meeting the needs of LED 'lightshow',
solutions
in
cellular
phones
consumer applications.
The evaluation board enables users to view
existing LED light sequences and to be able to
generate new sequences to explore the
possibilities of the DA9026 device.
The evaluation PCB is supplied together with
a CD ROM containing documentation and
driver files.
The driver software uses a simple graphical
interface,
allowing
the
DA9026
controlled via the USB port of a PC.
This document describes the hardware and
software used by Dialog Semiconductor to
test and evaluate the DA9026 lightshow
processor.
The hardware solution is based upon PCB
numbered 44-179-62-03-A.

The DA9026 device plus the USB interface
consume approximately 120mA in the standby
state, and up to 200mA in the active state.
The USB cable must therefore be plugged
directly into a capable USB port. It is not
guaranteed to operate in a hub. (See the
section on power supplies).
The main software interface provides a
straightforward demonstration panel, but an
alternative interface allows control of all the
