EVALUATION KIT SETUP PROCEDURE
In order to start using the evaluation kit, simply plug the SWI Socket Board into the
USB Base Board using the H1 and J1 headers. See
for illustration.

DM160232 USB BASE BOARD AND SWI SOCKET BOARD
Once both the boards are connected, verify that there is a device correctly installed in
the SOT23 socket on the SWI Socket Board. If there is not a device installed, the user
must install a device from the supported device list into the SOT23 socket. To ensure
robust GUI and hardware operation, it is recommended that when installing a
supported device, the USB Base Board be disconnected from the user’s PC.

Once the device is seated properly, close the socket lid to finish installing the supported
device.

Once a supported device is installed in the SOT23 socket, the user can then plug in the
USB Base Board into one of their computer’s USB ports. Once the USB Base Board
enumerates on the user’s PC, open the GUI by selecting either the desktop icon (SWI
GUI) or navigating to the Start Menu folder that was created when the DM160232 SWI
Evaluation Kit GUI software was installed.
Note:
Due to the small size of the 3-lead SOT23 package, it is recommended to
use tweezers in order to properly install the supported device into the SWI
Socket Board socket.
