INSTALLING ADC ANALYZER WITH ADIsimADC
ADC Analyzer is useful also as an evaluation tool for simulated
ADCs using ADIsimADC.
INSTALLATION
The simulation tools are installed as part of the regular
installation of ADC Analyzer (for instructions, see the Installing
ADC Analyzer section). Before using these features, the desired
model files must be installed. Locate the available models on the
Analog Devices website
locating the desired converter product and going to the Design
Tools area for that product.

CONFIGURATION FILE
As with using an ADC evaluation board, a corresponding
configuration file must be loaded before simulations can occur.
This file provides the software with important information
about the format in which the data is generated, and other
information, such as the number of bits, speed of the clock, and
format of the data bits (binary or twos complement).
Configuration files for some of the evaluation boards are
included with the ADC Analyzer files. Each time ADC Analyzer
is launched, a window opens in which a configuration file can
be specified. Click Yes to specify a configuration file and choose
the file corresponding to the ADC evaluation board being used.
For more details, see the Configuring an Evaluation Board
section.
CONFIGURING A MODEL
To configure the software for use with ADIsimADC virtual
evaluation board, follow Steps 1 through 8.
1.
Download the desired model file to the models directory.
The default is c:\program files\adc_analyzer\models.
Although the software is provided with the evaluation
board, no hardware is required to use the modeling
software. Updates to the software are posted periodically to
www.analog.com
Check the website frequently to ensure that you have the
latest for both files.
Once the software and models are installed, run the
executable file (the default location is in c:\program
files\adc_analyzer\adc_analyzer.exe.
Choose Config > FFT from the pull-down menus or right-
click on any of the analysis buttons to bring up the FFT
Configuration menu. In this window, set the encode rate to
the desired rate that the converter can support. If an
encode rate is specified outside the operating range of the
converter, the model will not function as expected and
erroneous results will be obtained. Make any other
adjustments necessary. If you have questions, see the
Configuring an Evaluation Board. Click OK when finished.

From the menu, select Config > Buffer. From the drop
down list, select Model. Then click OK. In effect, the model
functions in place of the ADC and data capture hardware.
After selecting the Model, a small button, Model, is
displayed next to the Stop button. Click Model to open the
model selection form.
The ADC Modeling form lets you select the device to
model and configure the analog input to the model.
From the ADC Modeling form, select the Device tab
