EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
The AD5570 evaluation kit includes self-installing software on
a CD. The software is compatible with Windows XP (SP2), Vista,
and Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit). If the setup file does not run
automatically, you can run the setup.exe file from the CD.
Install the evaluation software before connecting the evaluation
board and SDP board to the USB port of the PC to ensure that
the evaluation system is correctly recognized when connected
to the PC.
After installation from the CD is complete,
1. Power up the AD5570 evaluation board as described in the
Power Supplies section. Connect the SDP board (via either
Connector A or Connector B) to the AD5570 evaluation
board and then to the USB port of your PC using the
supplied cable.
2. When the evaluation system is detected, proceed through any
dialog boxes that appear. This completes the installation.
SOFTWARE OPERATION
To launch the software, complete the following steps:
1. From the Start menu, select Analog Devices > AD5570 >

software opens (see Figure 3).
2. If the evaluation system is not connected to the USB port
when the software is launched, a connectivity error is
displayed (see Figure 2). Connect the evaluation board to
the USB port of the PC, wait a few seconds, click Rescan,
