EVAL-AD5933EBZ Datasheet, PDF (9/32 Pages) Analog Devices – Evaluation Board for the 1 MSPS 12-Bit Impedance Converter Network Analyzer

Preliminary Technical Data
Choose the Analog Devices directory (see Figure 7). If the
Analog Devices folder does not exist yet, create a folder called
Analog Devices and add the program icon to this new folder.
EVAL-AD5933EB
STEP 2—CONNECT THE USB CABLE
Plug one end of the USB cable into the computer USB hub and
connect the other end to the AD5933 evaluation board USB socket
(see J1 in Figure 37). A message may appear informing you that
a USB device has been detected on the host computer and that
new hardware has been found (see Figure 10).
Figure 7. Evaluation Software Installation
After installing the software, remove the CD from the disc
drive. You may be asked to reboot the computer.
Go to Start > All Programs > Analog Devices > AD5933 >
AD5933 (see Figure 8).
Figure 10. USB Device Detected by Host Computer
The Found New Hardware Wizard dialog box appears (see
Figure 11). This wizard locates and installs the appropriate
driver files for the AD5933 evaluation kit in the operating
system registry. Select the Install the software automatically
(Recommended) option in the main dialog box of the software
(see Figure 11). Click Next to continue.
Figure 8. Opening the Evaluation Software
The message shown in Figure 9 will appear. This error message
is to be expected because there is no USB connection between
the computer and the AD5933 evaluation board at this stage.
Therefore, the firmware code that the evaluation software operates
from, and which needs to be downloaded to the evaluation board
USB microcontroller memory each time the interface software
program is opened, cannot be successfully downloaded to the
evaluation board. Click Cancel and proceed to Step 2.
Figure 9. Expected Error Message
Figure 11. Hardware Installation Wizard
A standard Windows operating system warning message
appears, as shown in Figure 12. This indicates that the new
hardware (the AD5933 evaluation kit) being installed on the
Windows operating system has not passed the Windows logo
testing to verify compatibility with Windows XP. This warning
appears because the installation is an evaluation setup
installation and is not intended to be used in a production
environment. Click Continue Anyway and then click Finish.
