EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

The ADT7x20 evaluation kit includes the evaluation software

on a CD-ROM. The software is compatible with Windows®

2000/XP, Vista, and Windows 7. The evaluation software must

be installed before connecting the evaluation board to the USB

port of the PC to ensure that Windows recognizes it and to

ensure that the driver is installed correctly. To install the

software, run the ADT7x20 Evaluation Software Install.exe

file from the CD-ROM.

After the installation has completed, connect the ADT7x20

evaluation board to the PC USB port using the cable supplied.

When the evaluation board is detected by the operating system,

proceed through any dialog boxes that appear to finalize the

installation.

USING THE ADT7x20 EVALUATION SOFTWARE

During installation, a shortcut to the evaluation software

is installed in the Start menu. From the Start menu, select

All Programs, then Analog Devices, and click ADT7x20

Evaluation Software. You can launch the software using either

this shortcut or by running the ADT7x20 Evaluation

Software.exe file from the installation directory.

DEVICE SELECTION

When the evaluation software is launched, a window appears

prompting you to select the desired device, as shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5. Device Selection Window

The ADT7320 uses the SPI interface whereas the ADT7420 uses

the I2C. Other than the control interface, the two devices are

identical in performance.

BOARD SELECTION

The device selected at the previous step in the Device Selection

section can be located either on the main board or on the

external board.

After the desired device is selected, a window appears

prompting you to select the location of the device (see Figure 6).
