GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This user guide describes the operation and functionality of the AD5501/AD5504 evaluation board. Use this user guide in conjunction with the AD5501 or AD5504 data sheet (as appropriate) to evaluate board the functionality and performance of the AD5501/AD5504. The evaluation board can be used as a standalone board, with control coming from an external DSP or microcontroller, or it can be connected to a PC. Software is provided that can be used to program the registers of
5501/AD5504. Control of the AD5501/AD5504 is via a
the AD USB interface.

FUNCTIONALITY OVERVIEW

The evaluation board for the AD5501/AD5504 allows the user to fully evaluate all the functions and performance of the AD5501/ AD5504 prior to designing it into a system. The evaluation board can be used in a standalone mode with the control signals provided through the 10-pin header, J6, or it can be connected to a PC using the USB cable supplied with the evaluation board kit. Software is provided that allows the user to program the various registers of the AD5501/AD5504 with ease. The operation of the software is described in the Using the USB Software section.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Because the AD5501/AD5504 are capable of producing voltages up to 60 V, the evaluation board is shipped with a perspex cover on the top and bottom. This cover should remain in place to prevent accidental contact with any high voltage components or tracks.

POWER SUPPLIES

To supply V supply. The V supply limit as specified in the AD5501/AD5504 data sheets. Power supply connections are made to the banana sockets of J2 to J5. The USB interface, if used, gets its power supply from the USB port of the PC. This power supply is not used by the AD5501/AD5504 or any of its associated circuitry. When connecting the power supply leads, it is recommended that the supplies be turned off and that the ground leads be connected first.

USB INTERFACE

The software provided with the evaluation board kit allows the user to program the registers of the AD5501/AD5504 via the USB interface. It is important that the software supplied is installed on the PC before the board is connected. The USB circuitry gets its power from the USB port of the PC and gene-

rates the required interface signals:
SYNC
,
, and SCLK to control the AD5501/AD5504. To use the interface Link LK1 should be inserted.

STANDALONE OPERATION

The evaluation board can be used as a standalone device if required. The advantage to this is that it lets the user connect the interface pins of the AD5501/AD5504 to their own DSP or microcontroller, thus allowing them to write code to operate the AD5501/AD5504 as their application requires. To use the board in standalone mode, the connection to the USB interface must be removed. This is achieved by removing LK1, which three-

USING THE USB SOFTWARE

The evaluation board kit is supplied with a CD containing PC software that allows the user to control the evaluation board via the USB interface. Note that the software must be installed before the evaluation board is connected to the USB port. The software installation program usually runs automatically when the CD is inserted in the drive; however, if this doesn’t happen, double­click the setup.exe file in the root directory of the CD. The soft- ware is installed, and shortcuts are placed on the start menu in a folder called Analog Devices. When the software is installed, the evaluation board can be connected to the USB port.
When the software is started, the user is presented with a selection box. The selection box presents a choice of using the AD5501 or AD5504. Click the appropriate button for the board being used.
The main control panel for the AD5504 software is shown in Figure 2. Use this panel to load values to the DACs and set the status of the
LDAC
and
CLR
pins. It should be noted that when power is first applied to the AD5501/AD5504, the DACs are powered down by default. The DACs are powered up by selecting the appropriate options in the control register panel.
