Description

ADS54Jxx

Enables control of the ADS54Jxx features. None of these controls need to be touched for basic operation.
Instead, use the Low Level View tab to load configuration files.

LMK04828

Enables control of many of the LMK04828 features. Configuration files can be used to setup the
LMK04828 in known working configurations, however this tab can be used to setup more advanced
clocking schemes.

Low Level View

Allows write and read access to all device registers. Also allows loading and saving of configuration files.
The device configurations can be saved from this tab for use in the user’s system. See

Section 4.2

for

more information.
