Evaluation Kit User Manual for CMX980A
EV9800
1.3 Quick Start
This section provides instructions for users who wish to experiment immediately with the evaluation kit.
A fuller description of the kit and its use appears later in this document.
1.3.1 Fitting the TI DSKplus
There are a set of pads on the PCB which match those of the TI DSKplus. The use of commonly
available sockets and pin headers will raise the DSKplus board above the adjacent circuitry. It is
recommended that the user only fit pins to the pads which are actually used to ease fitting and removal
of the DSKplus board, see circuit schematic.
There is a power rail provided for the DSKplus, therefore it is not necessary to use the PSU supplied by
TI. If however the PSU supplied by TI is to be used the user should remove jumper JP14.
The DSKplus parallel connection should be used as described in the DSKplus user’s guide, TI
document SPRU191.
1.3.2 Software
Copy the files ES9800xx.EXE, EF98Kxx.obj and EF9800xx.obj to a single directory.
1.3.3 Operation
Connect the +/-15 Volt supplies and turn on. Run ES9800xx.EXE. This will reset the TI DSKplus,
before loading the application firmware. Finally, the CMX980A is reset by this firmware. An optional
RESET button allows the manual resetting of the CMX980A.
