CONFIGURING THE EVALUATION BOARD
Saving and Loading User Settings
The AD9510 evaluation software allows you to save and load AD9510 configurations. This is accomplished through the
File Menu
and
the
Save
or
Load Setup
commands.
1.
Select
File > Save Setup
.
2.
Select the
directory
and
file name
where you want to save the current user configuration. The default file name is
Settings.stp.
All settings are saved together.
3.
To reload these settings at any time, select
File > Load Setup
. A window appears and opens to the default directory,
C:\Program Files\ADI\AD9510 Eval Software.
From here, you may choose the desired setup.
The AD9510 is shipped with a setup/configuration file to configure the AD9510 to run with the default VCXO and PLL configuration.
This configuration file assumes a REFCLK frequency of 61.44 MHz and a VCXO of 245.76 MHz. The divider values are R = 4, N = 16
(A = 2, B = 7, P = 2/3). This yields a PFD frequency of 15.36 MHz. The REFCLK frequency can be changed as long as the R divider is
altered so that 15.36 MHz is still the input frequency to the PFD.
Serial Control Port Options
The serial control port on the AD9510 has several configuration options. These can be controlled by selecting the
Configure Serial Port
option under the
I/O menu
, which opens the
Serial Port Config
window. (see Figure 14 below).
