EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE 

The 

EVAL-ADE7903EBZ

 evaluation board is supported by 

Windows®-based software that allows the user to access all the 
functionality of the 

ADE7903

.  

The software communicates with the SDP-B Blackfin board 
using the USB. The microcontroller communicates with the 

ADE7903

 ADC on the evaluation board to process the requests 

sent from the PC.  

INSTALLING THE DRIVERS 

When using the 

ADE7903

 evaluation tools for the first time, a 

driver must be installed to allow successful communication. 
The driver 

SDPDriversNET.exe

 can be found in the evaluation 

software package in the 

SDP drivers

 folder.

 

 

To install the driver, follow this procedure: 

1.

When the Setup Wizard appears, click 

Next

, and follow the

installation instructions.

Figure 10. SDP Drivers Setup 

2.

When the installation is complete, click 

Finish

 to close the

window.

Connect the USB cable from the PC to the SDP-B Blackfin 
board. Windows detects the device and locates the correct 
driver automatically.

EVALUATION SOFTWARE 

The 

ADE7903

 evaluation software is supplied with the 

evaluation software package. It contains the LabVIEW-based 
program that runs on the PC. This program must be installed. 

Before using the evaluation software on the PC for the first time, 
run the installer. This installer is available in the 

installation_files 

folder. If a copy of LabVIEW 2010 is available on the PC, the 
executable is provided in the 

executable

 folder. The LabVIEW 

source files are provided in the 

LabView_project\source 

folder. 

1.

To install the ADE7903 evaluation software, double-click

installation_files\setup.exe

 to launch the setup program

that automatically installs all the software components,
including the uninstall program, and creates the required
directories.
