2.2 Hardware Setup
This section describes the overall system setup for the EVM. A local machine runs the software that provides an
interface to the DAC82002EVM through the onboard controller.
The USB connection generates 5 V of power for use as the DAC supply voltage (VDD). The onboard controller
generates 3.3 V of power for the input/output (I/O) signals generated by the controller. These I/O signals are
level-translated to the VDD voltage of the DAC.

2.2.1 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
CAUTION
Many of the components on the DAC82002EVM are susceptible to damage by electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Observe proper ESD handling precautions when unpacking and handling the
EVM, including the use of a grounded wrist strap at an approved ESD workstation.
2.2.2 Power Configurations and Jumper Settings
The DAC82002EVM provides electrical connections to the device supply pins.

If an external supply is applied to the DAC VDD input, remove jumper J3 to disconnect the 5-V USB supply from
the DAC VDD pin. For SPI communication to operate, J13 must be open.
For J9 and J11, use only one short at a time for each. Short the J10 and J12 SMA connectors to output VOUTA
and VOUTB, respectively.
2.2.3 Connecting the Hardware
After the power and jumper configurations are set up per
, connect the USB cable from the
DAC82002EVM USB port to the local machine.
