When new TI high-speed data converter EVMs or JESD204B interface modes become available that are not
currently supported by the latest release of HSDC Pro GUI, the HSDCProv_xpxx_Patch_setup executable,
available on the TI website under the High-Speed Data Converter Pro (HSDCP) Software product folder (
www.ti.com/tool/dataconverterpro-sw
), will allow the user to add these to the GUI device list. After the patch has
been downloaded, follow the on-screen instructions to run the patch. The software displays the files that will be
added. After running the patch, open HSDC Pro and the new parts and modes will appear in the ADC and DAC
device drop-down selection box. The patch is always specific to a core GUI version and will not work for a GUI
version for which the patch was not explicitly created.
