This document presents the steps to setup an environment for using the EVAL-AD7492SDZ evaluation board together with the Xilinx KC705 FPGA board and the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit (EDK). Below is presented a picture of the EVAL-AD7492SDZ Evaluation Board with the Xilinx KC705 board.
For component evaluation and performance purposes, as opposed to quick prototyping, the user is directed to use the part evaluation setup. This consists of:
The SDP-B controller board is part of Analog Devices System Demonstration Platform (SDP). It provides a high speed USB 2.0 connection from the PC to the component evaluation board. The PC runs the evaluation software. Each evaluation board, which is an SDP compatible daughter board, includes the necessary installation file required for performance testing.
Note: it is expected that the analog performance on the two platforms may differ.
Below is presented a picture of SDP-B Controller Board with the EVAL-AD7492SDZ Evaluation Board.
The EVAL-AD7492SDZ evaluation board is a full-featured evaluation board,designed to allow the user to easily evaluate all features of the AD7492. On-board components include the AD8597 ultralow noise operational amplifier, the AD8021 low noise, high speed amplifier, the ADP1613 Step-Up PWM DC-to-DC Switching Converter, the ADP3303-5 High Accuracy anyCAP™ 200 mA Low Dropout Linear Regulator and the ADP2301 1.2 A, 20 V, 1.4 MHz non-synchronous step-down switching regulator.
The AD7492, AD7492-4, AD7492-5 are 12-bit high speed, low power, successive approximation ADCs. The parts operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.25 V power supply and feature throughput rates up to 1.25 MSPS. They contain a low noise, wide bandwidth track/hold amplifier that can handle bandwidths up to 10 MHz.
The first objective is to ensure that you have all of the items needed and to install the software tools so that you are ready to create and run the evaluation project.
The following table presents a short description the reference design archive contents.
Folder | Description |
---|---|
Bit | Contains the KC705 configuration file that can be used to program the system for quick evaluation. |
DataCapture | Contains the script used to read data from the ADC and save it into a file on the PC. |
Hdl | Contains the HDL driver for the AD7492 ADC. |
Microblaze | Contains the EDK 13.2 project for the Microblaze softcore that will be implemented in the KC705 FPGA. |
Software | Contains the source files of the software project that will be run by the Microblaze processor. |
Before connecting the ADI evaluation board to the Xilinx KC705 make sure that the VADJ_FPGA voltage of the KC705 is set to 3.3V. For more details on how to change the setting for VADJ_FPGA visit the Xilinx KC705 product page.
At this point everything is set up and it is possible to start the evaluation of the ADI hardware. To capture data from the ADC run the data_capture.bat script located in the DataCapture folder from the reference design .zip file. Every time the script is run a new batch of 8192 samples are read from the ADC at the ADC's maximum sampling rate and saved into the Acquisition.csv file located in the same folder as the data capture script. On the UART terminal messages will be displayed to show the status of the program running on the FPGA as shown in the picture below.
The first time the data capture script is run it is possible that an error will occur while the script is trying to connect to the system. Just run the script again and the error shouldn't appear anymore.
