Installation Instructions
Download the latest version of the HSDC Pro GUI (slwc107x.zip) to a local location on a host PC. Visit
www.ti.com
and find the install link on the
TSW14J50EVM
page.
Unzipping the software package generates a folder called “High Speed Data Converter Pro - Installer
vx.xx.exe", where x.xx is the version number. Run this program to start the installation.
Follow the on-screen instructions during installation.
NOTE:
If an older version of the GUI has already been installed, make sure to uninstall it before
loading a newer version.
Figure 3. GUI Installation

Accept the license agreement. Click the

USB Interface and Drivers
•
Connect a USB cable between J9 of the TSW14J50EVM and a host PC.
•
Connect the pr5 VDC source to the EVM and 100-240 VAC, 50 to 60-Hz source.
Click on the High-Speed Data Converter Pro icon that was created on the desktop panel, or go to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\High Speed Data Converter Pro and double click on the
executable called
High Speed Data Converter Pro.exe
to start the GUI.
The GUI first attempts to connect to the EVM USB interface. If the GUI identifies a valid board serial
number, a pop-up opens displaying this value, as shown in
Figure 4
. Several TSW14J50 EVMs can
connect to one host PC, but the GUI can only connect to one at a time. When multiple boards are
connected to the PC, the pop-up displays all of the serial numbers found. The user then selects which
board to associate the GUI with.
