CONTROL DIALOG BOX 

Use the 

Control

 dialog box to enable and disable individual 

device functions, program the input clock speed, and toggle 
various other options. Figure 3 shows the sections of the 

Control

 dialog box: 

Clock

Output Waveform

Linear Sweep

Power Down

Accumulator Control

, and 

Sync Multi DUT’s

.  

Click 

Charge Pump/Clock Driver Window

I/O Interface 

Window,

 or 

DUT Signals Window

 to access these dialog 

boxes.  

LOAD and READ 

At the bottom right of the dialog box are the 

LOAD

 and 

READ

 

buttons.  

After you have made changes to the evaluation software, click 

LOAD

 to send the data to the device. In addition to sending 

data, you can also configure 

LOAD

 to automatically send an 

I/O update signal to the DUT when the software finishes 
sending data. See the DUT Signals Dialog Box section for 
details.  When new data is ready to be sent, 

LOAD

 flashes 

green, indicating that a you need to issue a 

LOAD

.   

Click 

READ

 to perform a readback of the currently program-

med status of the device and to update the GUI with the current 
settings.

Figure 3. Control Dialog Box 

Clock  

To program the reference clock and the RF prescalar values: 

1.

 

In the 

Ref Clock

 box, type the operating frequency of the 

external reference clock. The maximum is 2.7 GHz.  

2.

 

In the 

Divider Ratio

 box, select a divider value for the RF 

prescalar. The value must be in the range of 1 and 8. 

3.

 

Click 

LOAD

.  

To bypass the RF divider and pipe the REFCLK input directly to 
the DDS core, select 

RF Divider RefClk Mux

. Even though the 

divider operates at /1, /2, /4, or /8, and this divided signal can be 
ported to the PECL driver, the raw, undivided REFCLK is used 
as the internal system clock when this box is checked. Do 

not

 

select this box, if the REFCLK input is greater than 400 MHz. 

Output Waveform 

In the 

Output Waveform

 box, select either a cosine(x) or a 

sine(x) function for the angle-to-amplitude conversion. 

Linear Sweep  

Use the 

Linear Sweep 

section to enable the linear sweep 

functions of the DDS. See the AD9956 data sheet for a detailed 
explanation of these modes of operation.  

Select 

Enable

 to turn on the frequency accumulator. If the 

No 

Dwell

 box is not checked, the part is set in ordinary linear 

sweep mode.  

Select both 

Enable

 and 

No Dwell

 to put the part into linear 

sweep no-dwell mode.  

When you select 

Load SRR @ I/O Updat

e, the current 

countdown of the sweep ramp rate is cleared every time an 
I/O_UPDATE signal is sent to the part. When using manual 
programming through the GUI, it is almost impossible to notice 
the effect of this function because the sweep ramp rates cycle 
through their countdown timers in less than 655 µs, even when 
programmed to a maximum value. 

The linear sweep parameters (delta frequencies and ramp rates) 
are controlled in the 

Linear Sweep

 section (see Figure 3). The 

sweep itself, however, is controlled by the 

Ramp Up

 and 

Ramp 

Down

 buttons, which appear at the bottom of the 

Profile

 dialog 

box when the 

Linear Sweep Enable

 box is checked.  See the 

Profile Dialog Box section for details. 

Power Down  

In the 

Power Down

 section, select the check boxes for the 

circuit blocks that you want to power down. 

Accumulator Control  

This section controls the clear functions for the phase and 
frequency accumulators.  

Select 

Auto Clear Frequency Accum.

 or 

Auto Clear Phase 

Accum.

 to clear and release the corresponding accumulator. 

The auto clear function sets the accumulator to a known value 
of 0 and then begins accumulating.
