EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
The AD9166-FMC-EBZ evaluation board is configured using
an easy to use graphical user interface called analysis, control,
evaluation (
ACE ). ACE is available for download at
www.analog.com/ACE .
The user can also install the AD9166 ACE serial peripheral
interface (SPI) programmer application. The ACE SPI
programmer application enables full access to the register map
of the
AD9166 and has additional functionality, such as the
ability to record, load, and save macros or register sequences, to
ease programming of the device.
Use the DPGDownloader program for loading signal vectors
into the ADS7-V2EBZ , to be played by the AD9166 across a
JESD204B link.
The ADF4372 and HMC7044 are also configured by ACE .
Several macros or register sequences are included in this user
guide to demonstrate how to set up these devices, based on the
desired clock configuration. For some clock configurations,
ACE reprograms the ADF4372 and HMC7044 without any
physical changes to the AD9166-FMC-EBZ evaluation board.
