Program the HSC-ADC-EVALCZ board’s FPGA to a setting
other than the default setting as described in Step 3. Then
expand the VisualAnalog display and click the
Settings
button in the
ADC Data Capture
block (see Figure 6). The

Select the
Board Settings
tab and browse to the appropriate
programming file. If you are using an encode rate <28 MSPS,
select
Octal_Low_Speed.bin
. If you are using an encode
rate >28 MSPS, select
Octal_High_Speed.bin
. Next, click
Program
; the
DONE
LED in the HSC-ADC-EVALCZ board
should then turn on. If more than two channels are required
to be displayed, select
Octal_High_8-Channel_synchronous
Capture.bin
. This canvas allows the user to display all the
channels at once. The drawback is that each FFT display is
only 8k points.
Exit the
ADC Data Capture Settings
box by clicking
OK
.
Setting Up the SPI Controller
After the ADC data capture board setup is completed, set up the
SPI Controller using the following procedure:
1.
Open the SPI Controller software by going to the
Start
menu or double-clicking the SPI Controller software
desktop icon. If prompted for a configuration file, select
the appropriate one. If not, check the title bar of the
window to determine which configuration is loaded. If
necessary, choose
Cfg Open
from the
File
menu and select
the appropriate one. Note that the
CHIP ID(1)
field should
be filled to indicate whether the correct SPI Controller
configuration file is loaded or not (see Figure 8).
