LINK CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
There are multiple link options that must be set correctly to
select the appropriate operating setup before you begin using
the evaluation board. The functions of these options are
outlined in Table 2.
SETUP CONDITIONS
Care should be taken before
applying power and signals to the
evaluation board to ensure that all link positions are as required
by the operating mode. There are two modes in which to operate
the evaluation board. The evaluation board can be operated in
SDP-H1 controlled mode to be used with the the
EVAL-SDP-CH1Z
board, or the evaluation board can be used in standalone mode.
The Default Position column of Table 2 shows the default
positions in which the links are set when the evaluation board is
packaged. When the board is shipped, it is set up to operate in
SDP-H1 controlled mode, with the power supplied from the
EVAL-SDP-CH1Z
board and the analog supply rail (V
DD1
) being
supplied via the on-board
iso
Power®
ADuM6000
dc-to-dc converter.

on-board device.
Position B: V
DD1
is supplied externally via Connector J5.

DD1
is supplied via a step-down dc-to-dc regulator via J7. Remove LK5 if V
DD1
is
supplied via LK1.

supply source.
Position A: V
DD2
is supplied from the
EVAL-SDP-CH1Z
board.
Position B: V
DD2
is supplied from the on-board 5 V regulator.
Position C: V
DD2
is supplied externally via Connector J6.
Analog Input
LK7
Removed When LK7 is inserted, AIN+ is shorted to ground. Remove LK7 if a signal is applied to AIN+.
LK8

When LK8 is inserted, AIN− is shorted to ground. Remove LK8 if a signal is applied to AIN−.
Serial Interface
LK3
A
This link is used to select the MCLK source for the serial interface.
Position A: MCLK is sourced from the
EVAL-SDP-CH1Z
board.
Position B: Do not use.
Position C: MCLK is sourced from the J3 SMB jack. (Standalone mode.)
LK4
A
This link is used to route the MDAT output for the serial interface.
Position A: MDAT is sent to the
EVAL-SDP-CH1Z
board.
Position B: MDAT is sent to the J4 SMB jack. (Standalone mode.)
