EVALUATION BOARD SETUP PROCEDURES 

The 

AD7276

 evaluation board connects to the 

EVAL-SDP-

CB1Z

 system demonstration board. The 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 

board is the controller board, which is the communication link 
between the PC and the main evaluation board. Figure 2 shows 
a photograph of the connections made between the 

AD7276

 

daughter board and the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 board.  

After following the instructions in the Software Installation 
Procedures section, set up the evaluation and SDP boards as 

detailed in this section.  

Warning 

The evaluation software and drivers must be installed before con-
necting the evaluation board and 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 board to 

the USB port of the PC to ensure that the evaluation system is 

correctly recognized when it is connected to the PC. 

Configuring the Evaluation and SDP Boards 

1.

 

Connect the 

EVAL-AD7276SDZ

 board to Connector A or 

Connector B of the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 board (see Figure 2). 

a.

 

Screw the two boards together using the nylon screw-
nut set included in the evaluation board kit to ensure 
that the boards are connected firmly together. 

2.

 

Connect the 9 V power supply adapter included in the evalu-
ation board kit to Connector J1 of the 

EVAL-AD7276SDZ

 

board. (Alternatively, a bench power supply can be used to 
power the 

EVAL-AD7276SDZ

 via Connector J2. See Table 1 

for more information about the connections and options 
for the required power supplies.) 

3.

 

Connect the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 board to the PC using the 

supplied USB cable.
