Evaluation Board User Guide
EVALUATION BOARD SETUP PROCEDURE
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
The control software and USB drivers for EVAL-ADF4351EB1Z
are on the CD, which accompanies the board. If the user runs
ADF435x_Setup.msi, then the install wizard guides the user
through the install process. Simply follow the on-screen
instructions. The software and USB drivers will be installed
in the default directory called C:\Program Files\Analog
Devices\ADF435x. The software requires Microsoft’s .NET
framework version 3.5 or later to be installed on your machine.
The installer will automatically download the framework from
the Microsoft website if you do not have this installed. If you do
not have an internet connection or a slow connection on the
PC, then you can install the .NET framework directly from the
CD. Do this by double-clicking dotnetfx35.exe. Once installed,
run the ADF435x_Setup.msi again. Note that to install the
dotnetfx35.exe, you need to have Windows Installer 3.1 or later
installed.
1. Install the Analog Devices ADF435x PLL software by
double-clicking ADF435x_Setup.msi.
If you are using Windows XP, follow the instructions in
the Windows XP Software Installation Guide section (see
Figure 4 to Figure 8).
If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, follow the
instructions in the Windows Vista/7 Software Installation
Guide section (see Figure 9 to Figure 13).
Note that the software requires Microsoft Windows
Installer and Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 (or higher).
The installer connects to the Internet and downloads
Microsoft .NET Framework automatically. Alternatively,
before running ADF435x_Setup.msi, both the installer
and .NET Framework can be installed from the CD
provided.
2. Connect your SDP board (black) or USB adapter board
(green) by USB. If you are using an SDP board, the drivers
install automatically, and you are ready to run the software.
If you are using an USB adapter board on Windows XP,
follow the steps in the Windows XP Driver Installation
Guide section (see Figure 14 to Figure 17).
On Windows Vista or Windows 7, the drivers install
automatically.
