GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This user guide details the operation of the evaluation boards
for the AD5040/AD5060, AD5061 and AD5062 14-/16-bit, voltage
output nanoDACs. The evaluation boards are identical apart from
the DAC being evaluated, which is determined by the order
code. For the purpose of this user guide, the AD5040/AD5060,
AD5061, or AD5062 is referred to as the device being evaluated.
The evaluation board helps users quickly prototype new circuits
for the AD5040/AD5060, AD5061, or AD5062 and reduce design
time. The AD5040/AD5060, AD5061, and AD5062 operate from
a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply. An ADR444 is provided on-board
as a 4.096 V reference source.
Full data on the AD5040/AD5060, AD5061, and AD5062 is avail-
able in the appropriate data sheet, which should be consulted in
conjunction with this user guide when using the evaluation board.
The evaluation board interfaces to the USB port of a PC via the
SDP board. Software is supplied with the evaluation board to
allow the user to program the AD5040/AD5060, AD5061, or
the AD5062.
The evaluation boards are compatible with the E VA L-SDP-CB1Z
Blackfin® SDP controller board (SDP-B).

GETTING STARTED
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The evaluation kit for the device being evaluated includes self-
installing software on the provided CD. The software is compatible
with Windows Vista (32-bit), Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit), and
Windows 8 (32-bit and 64-bit).
Install the software before connecting the SDP-B board to the
USB port of the PC to ensure the SDP-B board is recognized
when it connects to the PC.
To install the software, take the following steps:
1. Start the Windows operating system and insert the CD.
2. The installation software opens automatically. If it does not
open automatically, run the setup.exe file from the CD.
3. After installation is complete, power up the evaluation
board as described in the Power Supplies section.
4. Connect the evaluation board to the SDP-B board and
connect the SDP-B board to the PC using the USB cable
included in the kit.
5. When the software detects the evaluation board, proceed
through any dialog boxes that appear to finalize the
installation.
EVALUATION BOARD SETUP PROCEDURES
To set up the evaluation board, take the following steps:
1. Connect the evaluation board to the SDP-B board and
connect the USB cable between the SDP-B board and the PC.
2. Power the SDP-B and evaluation boards by connecting a
6 V dc to the J6 connector.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
POWER SUPPLIES
To power the evaluation board, supply 6 V to connector J6. This
creates a 5 V supply for the device being evaluated and a 3.3 V
supply to power the SDP-B board. Alternatively, if the SDP-B board
is not being used, a 2.7 V to 5.5 V can connect to Connector J5.
An external reference voltage may be required so the reference
voltage does not exceed VDD.
All supplies are decoupled to ground with 10 µF tantalum and
0.1 µF ceramic capacitors.
INPUT SIGNALS
When the SDP-B board controls the evaluation board, the
digital input signals are applied to Connector J1. When the
SDP-B board is not used, apply the digital signals Connector J7.
OUTPUT SIGNALS
The DAC output voltage is available on the J2 SMB connector.

LINK CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
There are two link options (LK1 and LK2) that must be set
correctly to select the appropriate operating setup before using
the evaluation board. The functions of these options are
described in Table 2.
SETUP CONDITIONS
Before applying power and signals to the evaluation board,
ensure that all link positions are as required by the operating
mode.
There are two modes in which to operate the evaluation board:
SDP-B controlled mode, used with the SDP-B board, or the
evaluation board used in standalone mode.
Table 2 also shows the default positions where the links are set
when the evaluation board is packaged. When the board is
shipped, it is set up to operate with the SDP-B board in the SDP
controlled mode.
Table 2. Link Functions
Link No. Function Default Position
LK1 This link selects the VDD source for the device being evaluated. A
Position A selects the output of the ADP7102 voltage regulator (U4) as the VDD source.
Position B selects connector J5 as the VDD source.
LK2 This link selects the reference source for the device being evaluated. B
Position A selects an external reference voltage applied to Connector J4.
Position B selects the on-board ADR444, 4.096 V reference.

EVALUATION BOARD CIRCUITRY
Control of the device is typically performed by the SDP-B
board, which is attached to Connector J1. The SDP-B board
allows the software provided with the kit to load register values
and set the voltage of the DAC output.
When the SDP-B board is not required, the control signals can
be applied to the device by connecting them to the relevant pins
on Connector J7.
The DAC output voltage is available on the J2 SMB Connector.

HOW TO USE THE SOFTWARE
STARTING THE SOFTWARE
To run the software, take the following steps:
1. Connect the evaluation board to the SDP-B board and
connect the USB cable between the SDP-B board and
the PC.
2. Power the SDP-B board and the evaluation board by
connecting 5 V to Connector J2.
3. Click Start > All Programs > Analog Devices > AD506x
Evaluation Software The software will identify the board
connected to the SDP-B and display the board name, as
shown in Figure 3.
14140-003
Figure 3. Connection Message
If the SDP-B board is not connected to the USB port when the
software is launched, a connectivity error displays (see Figure 4).
Connect the evaluation board to the USB port of the PC, wait a
few seconds, click Rescan, and follow the instructions.
14140-004
Figure 4. Connectivity Error
When the software connects to the SDP-B and evaluation board,
the main window of the evaluation software opens, as shown in
Figure 5.

SOFTWARE OPERATION
The evaluation software allows the user to program values to
the input register of the DAC. The value that is written and the
value of the reference voltage calculates the output voltage.
Power-Down Menu
The device has three power down modes. These can be accessed
by clicking the blue box on the Power-Down Control Logic
section of the block diagram (Figure 5). The Powerdown
Configuration window, shown in Figure 6, then appears to
select the required operating mode.
The input register can still be loaded while the device is in
power down mode, but the output voltage is determined by the
power down condition.
