Access the digital signals of the device via J3. This header allows for the connection to a logic analyzer or when the EVM is used in a stand-alone configuration for connections to the microprocessor or microcontroller. If controlling the ADS131A04 with an external processor is desired, power down the onboard TM4C1294NCPDT by placing a jumper on JP1. Clock By default, a clock is supplied to the ADC via an external 16.384-MHz crystal.
The EVM is only powered by the USB connection at J1. Powering the ADS131A04 The ADS131A04 analog supply is provided by AVDD and AVSS connections. The ADC is designed to be operated by either via single or bipolar supply. 6.2.1 Single-Supply Configuration To connect the ADC in a single-supply configuration, install a jumper on JP11, pins 1-2.
