GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This user guide describes the EVAL-SDP-CS1Z system demonstration platform-serial (SDP-S) controller board from Analog Devices, Inc. The SDP-S controller board is part of the Analog Devices system demonstration platform (SDP). The SDP consists of a series of controller boards, interposer boards, and daughter boards. SDP controller boards provide a means of communicating with the system under evaluation from the PC. Interposer boards route signals between two connectors. Daughter boards are a collection of product evaluation boards and Circuits from the Lab™ reference circuit boards. The SDP-S is used as part of the evaluation system for many Analog Devices components and reference circuits. The primary audience for this user guide is the system engineer who seeks to understand

how to set up the SDP-S board and begin USB communications to the PC.

The SDP-S board is designed to be used in conjunction with various Analog Devices component evaluation boards and Circuits from the Lab reference circuits as part of a customer evaluation environment. The SDP-S provides USB connectivity through a USB 2.0 high speed connection to the computer, allowing users to evaluate components on this platform from a PC application. The SDP-S is based on a USB-to-serial engine, which has SPI, I2C, and GPIO lines available, with a 120-pin small footprint connector.

This user guide provides instructions for installing the SDP-S hardware (EVAL-SDP-CS1Z board) and software onto a computer. The necessary installation files are provided with the evaluation daughter board package. The Getting Started section provides software and hardware installation procedures, PC system requirements, and basic board information. The Evaluation Board Hardware section provides information on the EVAL- SDP-CS1Z components. The EVAL-SDP-CS1Z schematics are provided in the Evaluation Board Schematics section.

For more information about the SDP-S board, go to www.analog.com/sdp.

GETTING STARTED

This section provides specific information to assist with using the SDP-S board as part of the user’s evaluation system.

The following topics are covered:

•PC configuration

•USB installation

•Powering up/powering down the SDP-S

PC CONFIGURATION

For correct operation of the SDP board, the user’s computer must have the following minimum configuration:

•Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista®

•USB 2.0 port

When removing the SDP-S board from the package, handle the board carefully to avoid the discharge of static electricity, which can damage some components.

USB INSTALLATION

Perform the following tasks to safely install the SDP-S board onto the computer. There are two stages in the software application installation procedure. The first stage installs the application software. The second stage installs the .NET Framework 3.5 and the necessary drivers.

Installing the Software

1.Run the application installation file provided. The first stage installs the application GUI and the necessary support files onto the computer.

2.Immediately following the application installation, the

.NET Framework 3.5 and the driver package for the SDP board are installed. If the .NET Framework 3.5 is already preinstalled on the computer, this stage is skipped and Step 2 consists of a driver package installation only.

Connecting the SDP-S Board to the PC

Attach the SDP-S board to a USB 2.0 port on the computer via the Standard-A-to-Mini-B cable provided.

Verifying Driver Installation

Before using the SDP-S board, verify the driver software has installed properly.

Open the Windows Device Manager and verify the SDP-S board appears under ADI Development Tools, as shown in Figure 2.
