The SDP-S controller board is part of the Analog Devices system demonstration platform (SDP). The SDP consists of a series of controller boards, interposer boards, and daughter boards. SDP controller boards provide a means of communicating with the system under evaluation from the PC. Interposer boards route signals between two connectors. Daughter boards are a collection of product evaluation boards and Circuits from the Lab™ reference circuit boards. The SDP-S is used as part of the evaluation system for many Analog Devices components and reference circuits. The primary audience for this user guide is the system engineer who seeks to understand how to set up the SDP-S board and begin USB communications to the PC. The SDP-S board is designed to be used in conjunction with various Analog Devices component evaluation boards and Circuits from the Lab reference circuits as part of a customer evaluation environment. The SDP-S provides USB connectivity through a USB 2.0 high speed connection to the computer, allowing users to evaluate components on this platform from a PC application. The SDP-S is based on a USB-to-serial engine, which has SPI, I2C, and GPIO lines available, with a 120-pin small footprint connector. This user guide provides instructions for installing the SDP-S hardware (EVAL-SDP-CS1Z board) and software onto a computer. The necessary installation files are provided with the evaluation daughter board package. The Getting Started section provides software and hardware installation procedures, PC system requirements, and basic board information. The Evaluation Board Hardware section provides information on the EVAL- SDP-CS1Z components. The EVAL-SDP-CS1Z schematics are provided in the Evaluation Board Schematics section.
