EVM Operation

 

EVM Operation

This chapter covers the detailed operation of the EVM to provide guidance to
the user in evaluating the onboard DAC. It describes how to interface the EVM
to a specific host processor.

Refer to the DAC7731 data sheet SBAS249 for information about its serial
interface and other related topics.

The EVM board is factory tested and configured to operate in the bipolar output
mode.
