Powering Up the ADS794xEVM-PDK
Once the ADS794xEVM-PDK kit is configured, power can be applied to the MMB0. This power comes
from an external supply that de6 VDC to the MMB0 using the included CA-2186 cable via J2 on
the MMB0 motherboard. No wall power supply is included with the PDK; an external power supply should
be connected via the included CA-2186 cable where
indicates.
Figure 8. Powering Up ADS794xEVM-PDK
After the power supply is connected, four green LEDs in the bottom right-hand corner of the MMB0
motherboard should light up. If these LEDs do not light up, disconnect the power and verify that J12 is
closed.

First-Time Connection: ADS794xEVM-PDK to PC, Completing Driver Installation
The first time that the ADS794xEVM-PDK kit is connected to the PC via USB, the PC prompts the user for
two drivers. At this point, it is presumed that the ADCPro software and the ADS794xEVM plug-in have
been installed, and that the ADS794xEVM-PDK kit is properly configured and powered up (refer to
through
). The following sections show how to install these drivers.
NOTE:
Driver prompts may not appear if another PDK kit has been used on the PC before.
