Voltage Reference
The ADS1282EVM has many options for supplying a reference voltage to the ADS1282. Jumper J1 can
select the voltage from the REF5050 (U1) or use ground. The REF5050 supplies 5.0V to the reference for
unipolar mode. If ground is selected, then the voltage reference becomes 2.5V in bipolar mode. This
comes from the voltage difference across the VREFP and VREFN pins on the ADS1282. The voltage is
filtered and buffered by U3 before it is used as a reference for the ADS1282.
The ADS1282 can also be referenced by an external reference voltage using pins J6.18 (REF
–
) and J6.20
(REF+). Switch S1 chooses either the onboard reference or the external reference voltage that is
connected to the pins of J6.

Power-Down, Mode and Format Control
The power-down functionality of the ADS1282 is controlled by GPIO4 (J5.14) on the EVM. The
ADS1282EVM-PDK uses the I
2
C port expander on the EVM to allow the software to control this pin.

Clock Source
The ADS1282 clock can come from one of two sources: the onboard 4.096MHz crystal oscillator, or a
clock supplied by a processor on the TOUT pin (J5.17).
7.1
Usage in PDK
If using the ADS1282EVM as part of the ADS1282EVM-PDK, the J3 jumper should be set to the DVDD
position. Using the onboard 4.096MHz crystal oscillator allows the the ADS1282EVM-PDK software to
recognize the EVM using the software provided.
7.2
Usage as a Stand-Alone EVM
If using the EVM in your own system and not with the PDK hardware and software, the J3 jumper can be
used to select the clock. The jumper can be used to always select the 4.096MHz crystal (DVDD position)
or allow the onboard clock to be controlled by GPIO5 (J5.19), as shown in
. The P05 (U7.6) pin
allows the I
2
C interface to program a clock to GPIO5.
