Preliminary Technical Data
SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
The ADF7020 and ADF7020-1 software applications can be
downloaded from the Analog Devices Website at

will run the Installshield setup utility that will install all
information and software relevant to the ADF70XX Devices.
Note, it is recommended to turn off your anti-virus software
during install as this can interfere with the install process.
Choose the directory you wish to install into and proceed. Once
the program is setup, run ADF7020RevX.X.exe to launch the
program for the ADF7020 or ADF7020-1RevX.X.exe for the
ADF7020-1. The window shown below should appear – you
will need a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 to use the program.
This is the main window and is divided up into several sections
some of which have their own sub-windows which are
indicated by a raised button. For example in the PLL Options
section, you enter the sub-window by clicking on the “Synth
Settings” button.The green and red toggle buttons turn a
feature on or off.
After selecting Tx or Rx mode, you can select the required

modulation scheme by clicking on the drop-down box in the
Modulation Options section. In the FSK panel you should
enter the deviation frequency, data-rate, demodulation type
and IF Bandwidth. In Rx mode all the appropriate clock
frequencies are chosen for you based on these inputs. You will
need to click on the AFC/Advanced button to force the
software to auto-calculate these clock frequencies which will be
displayed on the AFC/Advanced sub-window. This window
also contains the AFC function and ability to select the various
demod locking features(See Register4 Description in Datasheet)
Another feature of the software is to display the output of the
Readback pin on the ADF7020 (see Readback section in
ADF7020 Datasheet for more details). This can display the
battery voltage, temperature, external ADC input or frequency
error on the screen.
For direct programming of the ADF7020/ADF7020-1 , click on
the Registers button. This allows you to enter Hex values into
individual registers. This is useful for de-bugging the register
settings that you will use in your embedded microcontroller
