System Setup
presents a block diagram of the PGA112_Test_Board. The functionality of this PCB is relatively
simple. It provides connections to the I
2
C™ and general-purpose input/outputs (GPIO) on the USB DAQ
Platform board. It also provides connection points for external connections of the shunt voltage, bus
voltage, and GND.
Figure 3. PGA112_Test_Board Block Diagram
See
for an illustration of the PGA112_Test_Board schematic. The J1 connector ports the
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), digital-to analog converters (DACs), and SPI™ control. The J2
connector ports the control bits for the input and output switches.
