3.1 Inductive Sensing GUI Overview
The inductive sensing GUI provides graphical configuration and streaming support for the LDC10xx. The
GUI package includes drivers for use with the LDC10xx Evaluation Modules (EVM). The EVM
provides a device abstraction layer for the GUI to communicate with the LDC10xx through SPI, and
includes other extended functionality.
3.2 Host Platform Requirements
The Inductive Sensing GUI supports:
• 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7
• 32-bit and 64-bit Windows XP
The host machine is required for device configuration and data streaming. Below are the steps which are
necessary to prepare the EVM for the GUI:
• The GUI must be installed on the host.
• The EVM driver must be installed on the host.
• The EVM must be connected to a full speed USB port (USB 1.0 or above).
3.3 EVM Information
For the TI LDC10xx EVM:
