EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The EVAL-AD7280AEDZ evaluation kit includes self-installing
software on a CD ROM for controlling and evaluating the
performance of the AD7280A when it is operated with the
EVAL-CED1Z board. If the setup file does not run
automatically, setup.exe can be run from the CD-ROM.
When the CD is inserted into the PC, an installation program
automatically begins. This program installs the evaluation
software. The user interface on the PC is a dedicated program
written especially for the AD7280A when operating with the
EVAL-CED1Z board.
The software should be installed before the USB cable is
connected between the EVAL-CED1Z and the PC. This ensures
that the appropriate USB driver files have been properly
installed before the EVAL-CED1Z is connected to the PC.
When the software is run for the first time with the EVAL-
CED1Z board connected to the PC, the PC automatically finds
the new device and identifies it.
Follow the on-screen instructions that appear automatically to
install the drivers for the EVAL-CED1Z board on the PC. If an
error appears when the software is opened, the PC does not
recognize the USB device. This error is corrected by

SETTING UP THE EVAL-CED1Z
This section describes how the evaluation board, the EVAL-
CED1Z board, and the software should be set up to begin using
the complete system.

When completing conversions on the
board using the EVAL-CED1Z board, the red LED, D14, on the
EVAL-CED1Z lights up to indicate that the conversions are
occurring.
Install the AD7280A evaluation board software.
Connect the AD7280A evaluation board to the battery via
connectors J2 and J3.
Connect the EVAL-CED1Z board and the evaluation board
together via the 96-way connector. Apply power to the
EVAL-CED1Z via the +7 V, 15 W power supply provided.
At this stage, the green LED labeled Power on the EVAL-
CED1Z should be lit, which indicates that the EVAL-
CED1Z is receiving power.
Connect the USB cable between the PC and the EVAL-
CED1Z. A green LED positioned beside the USB
connector on the EVAL-CED1Z board lights up, indicating
that the USB connection has been established.
The EVAL-AD7280AEDZ is detected. Proceed through
any dialog boxes that may appear (use the recommended
options) to finalize the installation.
Start the EVAL-AD7280AEDZ software. The FPGA code
is automatically downloaded to the EVAL-CED1Z. The
red LED, D14, on the EVAL-CED1Z is now lit. This
indicates that the EVAL-CED1Z is functional and ready to
receive instructions.
The software can now be operated.
