Many pins on J5 have weak pull-up/down resistors. These resistors provide default settings for many ofthe control pins. Many pins on J5 correspond directly to ADS1278 pins. See the ADS1278 product datasheet for complete details on these pins.

Most data communications are directed through DOUT1. The data from all eight channels can beobserved on the DOUT1 pin using the TDM mode. That is the signal that is used by theADS1278EVM-PDK to read back and display all the channels. All the data output signals (DOUT1 toDOUT8) can be monitored on J2. Figure 1 illustrates the pinout for J2.

Power Supplies

Figure 1. Connector J2

J3 is the power-supply input connector. Table 4 lists the configuration details for J3. Analog inputs to theADC can be applied directly to the device (see Section 8.1 ,Analog Input), bypassing the onboardamplifiers, and in this case only +5V and +3.3V are required to power the EVM. If the amplifiers are used,an additional bipolar supply is needed to power them. The EVM includes a switching power supply togenerate a +10V and –10V supply. For optimum noise performance, the external supplies (+VA and –VA)should be used.

Pin No. Pin Name Function Required

J3.1 +VA +10V to +15V Yes, unless onboard +10V isused.J3.2 –VA -10V to –15V Yes, unless onboard –10V isused.J3.3 +5VA +5V analog supply AlwaysJ3.4 –5VA –5V analog supply NoJ3.5 DGND Digital ground input YesJ3.6 AGND Analog ground input YesJ3.7 +1.8VD 1.8V digital supply NoJ3.8 +3.3VD 3.3V digital supply AlwaysJ3.9 VD1 Not used NoJ3.10 +5VD +5V Used to generate +10V/–10V

The 1.8V for DVDD comes from the voltage regulator U16 using 3.3V as the source voltage input.

All of the power supplies AVDD (+5V), DVDD (1.8V), and IOVDD (3.3V) have corresponding jumpers J10,J11 (AVDD), J13 (DVDD) and J14 (IOVDD) that can be replaced with a current meter to measure therespective supply currents.

J15 and J16 require a jumper to select the voltage used by the onboard amplifiers. The external voltagescan range from 10V to 15V. The onboard voltage is always 10V. Table 5 and Table 6 list the options forJ15 and J16, respectively. Figure 2 shows the pinout for connectors J15 and J16.

Power-Down, Mode, and Format Control

Figure 4. Switch S1

The ADS1278 has several pins to control the power-down of individual channels, and mode and format forthe digital interface. These pins are controlled on the EVM either through software or hardware (usingswitches S10 and S11).

For users of the ADS1278EVM as a stand-alone module, these pins may be pulled high or low throughDIP switches S10 and S11. Refer to the ADS1278 product data sheet for complete details on these pinsand which state sets which options.

For use in the ADS1278EVM-PDK, the state of these pins is controlled by software, using the I

C portexpander on the EVM. When used in the ADS1278EVM-PDK, the DIP switches S10 and S11 must all beswitched so that they are down, toward the center of the board. The ADS1278EVM-PDK software willcheck at startup to verify that these switches are set correctly, and will generate an error message if theyare not. However, it cannot detect if the switches are changed after startup.

CAUTION

When using the EVM as part of the ADS1278EVM-PDK, the DIP switches S10and S11 must all be switched so that they are down, toward the center of theboard. Failure to do so may damage the EVM.

The ADS1278 clock can come from one of several sources: the onboard 27MHz crystal oscillator, a clocksupplied by a processor on the TOUT pin (J5.17), or an external clock source connected to J18.1 (ground)and J18.2 (signal).

If the onboard 27MHz oscillator is selected, the device can be run in the high-speed mode, thehigh-resolution mode, the low-power mode, or low-speed modes with CLKDIV set to 1. If the performanceof the device must be explored with CLKDIV set to 0 in the low-power and low-speed modes, an externalclock must be provided to the board, either using the TOUT connection or having an external clock sourceconnected to J18. The same condition is true if frequencies other than the 27MHz provided by theonboard oscillator must be investigated.

EVM Operation

www.ti.com

If using the ADS1278EVM as part of the ADS1278EVM-PDK, J19 should not have any pins shorted.Remove any shorting blocks on jumper J19. The ADS1278EVM-PDK software will allow selection of theclock source under software control (this is accomplished by using port 05 of the I

C expander U17). Thesoftware allows selection of the onboard 27MHz oscillator, or a clock provided by a PLL on the MMB0 thatdirectly drives the appropriate CLK pins of the interface, or an external, customer-supplied clock. If anexternal clock is selected with the software, this clock must be provided on J18. Note that if the externalclock is selected and no clock is provided, the software may hang waiting for data from the converter.

If using the EVM in your own system and not with the PDK hardware and software, observe the followingrecommendations:

•J17 should be removed if the external clock source is used and the TOUT pin is still driven by aprocessor in order to avoid conflicts.•Jumper J19 can be used to always select the 27MHz crystal (IOVDD position) or allow theonboard/external clock selection to be controlled by GPIO5 (J5.19), as shown in Figure 5 .

Figure 5. Jumper J19

The following section provides information on the analog input, digital control, and general operatingconditions of the ADS1278EVM.

Four of the analog input sources (channels 1–4) can be applied directly to J9 (top or bottom side) orthrough signal-conditioning modules available for the the modular EVM system. Terminal block J7 isconnected in parallel with the analog signal connections to J9. The additional four channel sources (5-8)can be applied to the terminal block J8.

Each input signal can be selected to connect directly to the analog inputs of the ADS1278 or they can usethe OPA1632 buffers that are provided. Switches S2–9 can be switched away from the ADS1278 to selectthe Terminal Block (TBK) or towards the ADS1278 to select the Amplifier (AMP) for the analog inputs 1through 8, as shown in Figure 6 .
