Evaluation Board Lab All recent Anadigm boards have a USB serial connection - used to connect the board to a PC running AnadigmDesigner2 thus enabling instant prototyping. Anadigm has used two different serial port drivers (on different boards). Silicon Graphic IC UART and associated PC drivers Microchip PIC Embedded UART and Microsoft generic serial driver. Please read the documentation with your board to discover which driver to use/install and connect the board to you PC running AnadigmDesigner2 AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 19

Test connection to make sure the board is working To Test the board connection. Go to the Settings Menu, the preferences. Then the Port Tab If you have successfully installed the driver and connected a powered board to the PC you will see the appropriate COM Port using the drop down AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 20

Test connection to make sure the board is working To Test the board connection. Go to the target tab at the top of the screen and choose display board information If the board is connected and powered up correctly, you will see a message box similar to that on the left which identifies the device type, ABK version and board. If you see some other message there may be some problem such as a bad power connection or the serial cable might not be connected AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 21

Set up the oscilloscope connection Hook up two pairs of oscilloscope probes here at the output pairs, labeled O3N and O3P, Plus O4N and O4P. If you have limited Scope ability you can connect to O3P and O4P only And hook up scope ground to the gnd pin. Consider soldering in a wire or pin to attach the gnd clip on to. AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 22

Set up the oscilloscope connection, alternate If You enabled the negative 3.3volt supply Close the switches to connect the signal To the Output Amplifier. You can now hook up the oscilloscope probes here at the output after differential to single-ended coversion AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 23

Verify FPAA is producing a proper output Step 1: Load the circuit from the class.zip package named Class III test circuit2.ad2 Can be downloaded from here Http://www.anadigm.com/_doc/Class III test circuit2.ad2 See next page to see what the parameter settings are (they are already set for you) AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 24

Verify FPAA is producing a proper output Sine wave Oscillator Parameter window OscillatorSawSqr Parameter window AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 25

Verify FPAA is producing a proper output Step 1:Click on the down arrow to download to the development board and you should see a output like the trace below: Output 1 will be a 80kHz sine wave. Zoom in time and Notice the stair steps in the output: this stair Step is the 4000 KHz clock. Output 2 will be a 40khz triangle(sawtooth) wave Step 2:Click on the Sim Button AnadigmDesigner2, inbuilt function simulator will show the same results if all went well ` AnadigmApex On Line Customer Seminar Series December 2016 page 26
