EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The E VA L-AD5143DBZ kit includes a CD containing the
evaluation board software. The software is compatible with
Windows® XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 (both 32 bits
and 64 bits).
Install the software before connecting the SDP board to the USB
port of the PC to ensure that the SDP board is recognized when
it is connected to the PC.
To install the software,
1. Start the Windows operating system and insert the CD into
the CD-ROM drive.
2. The installation software opens automatically. If it does not
open automatically, run the setup.exe file from the CD.
3. After installation is completed, power up the evaluation
board as described in the Power Supplies section.
4. Connect the E VA L -AD5143DBZ and EVA L-MB-LV-SDZ
to the SDP board, and connect the SDP board to the PC
using the USB cable included with the SDP board.
5. When the software detects the evaluation board, follow the
instructions that appear to finalize the installation.
To run the program, do the following:
1. Click Start > All Programs > Analog Devices > AD5143
> AD5143 Eval Board. To uninstall the program, click
Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs >
AD5143 Eval Board.
2. If the SDP board is not connected to the USB port when
the software is launched, a connectivity error displays (see
Figure 10). Simply connect the evaluation board to the
USB port of the PC, wait a few seconds, click Rescan, and
follow the instructions.
