Evaluation Board for the AD5570
16-Bit ±12 V/±15 V Serial Input Voltage Output DAC
FEATURES
EVALUATION BOARD DESCRIPTION
Full-featured evaluation board for the AD5570
Link options
PC control in conjunction with the Analog Devices, Inc.,
system demonstration platform
PC software for control
The EVAL-AD5570SDZ is a full-featured evaluation board that
is designed to allow the user to easily evaluate all features of the
AD5570 voltage output, 16-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC).
Components on the AD5570 evaluation board include SMB
connectors for interfacing to other equipment, a 5 V voltage
reference, and a ground force sense. Testpoints are provided on
all of the digital interface signal lines for ease of monitoring.
The user has the option of inserting both a resistive and
capacitive load on the output of the AD5570 at C1 and R1.
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The AD5570 is a single 16-bit serial input, voltage output DAC
that operates from supply voltages of ±11.4 V up to ±16.5 V.
INL and DNL are accurate to 1 LSB (maximum).
The board can be controlled by the system demonstration
platform (SDP) connector (J1). The SDP board allows the
evaluation board to be controlled through the USB port of a
Windows® XP (SP2 or later) or more recent 32-bit or 64-bit
(Vista, Windows 7) PC using the AD5570 evaluation software.
Complete specifications for the AD5570 are provided in the
AD5570 data sheet, available from Analog Devices, and should
be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when using the
evaluation board.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
POWER SUPPLIES
Default Link Option Setup
The following external supplies must be provided:
The default link options are listed in Table 1.
•
Table 1. Default Link Options
•
+11.4 V to +16.5 V between the VDD and AGND inputs for
the positive analog supply of the AD5570.
−11.4 V to −16.5 V between the VSS and AGND inputs for
the negative analog supply of the AD5570.
The analog and digital planes are connected at one location,
close to the AD5570. To avoid ground loop problems, it is
recommended AGND and DGND not be connected elsewhere
in the system.
Each supply is decoupled to the relevant ground plane with
10 µF and 0.1 µF capacitors. Each device supply pin is also
decoupled with a 10 µF and 0.1 µF capacitor pair to the
relevant ground plane.

Description
LK1 is used in conjunction with LK2 to select whether the on-board ground force sense buffer is used.
When LK1 and LK2 are inserted, the ground force sense buffer is not used, the ground pins are connected directly to 0 V, and
the buffer is removed from the ground loop.
When LK1 and LK2 are removed, the ground force sense buffer is used.
This link is used to select the internal or the external reference.
When LK3 is inserted, the on-board reference is selected as the voltage reference source for the AD5570.
When LK3 is removed, an external voltage reference can be applied to Connector VREF.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
SOFTWARE OPERATION
The AD5570 evaluation kit includes self-installing software on
a CD. The software is compatible with Windows XP (SP2), Vista,
and Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit). If the setup file does not run
automatically, you can run the setup.exe file from the CD.
To launch the software, complete the following steps:
Install the evaluation software before connecting the evaluation
board and SDP board to the USB port of the PC to ensure that
the evaluation system is correctly recognized when connected
to the PC.
2.
1.
After installation from the CD is complete,
10579-002
2.
Power up the AD5570 evaluation board as described in the
Power Supplies section. Connect the SDP board (via either
Connector A or Connector B) to the AD5570 evaluation
board and then to the USB port of your PC using the
supplied cable.
When the evaluation system is detected, proceed through any
dialog boxes that appear. This completes the installation.

1.
From the Start menu, select Analog Devices > AD5570 >
AD5570 Evaluation Software. The main window of the
software opens (see Figure 3).
If the evaluation system is not connected to the USB port
when the software is launched, a connectivity error is
displayed (see Figure 2). Connect the evaluation board to
the USB port of the PC, wait a few seconds, click Rescan,
and follow the instructions.

FEATURES OF THE AD5570 EVALUATION BOARD
SOFTWARE
The software allows the user to control all the functionality of
the AD5570. The main features are as follows:
•
•
•
•
Load DAC register with a 16-bit word and update the
AD5570 output.
Data readback of the contents of the input shift register.
Power down/power up the AD5570.
Clear the AD5570 output to 0 V.
Data Readback
Clicking the READ REGISTER button reads back and displays
the current contents of the DAC register.
Power Down/Power Up
Each of these features is described in the following sections.
Load DAC
In the Input Data field, the user types the 16-bit word to be
programmed to the AD5570 and clicks the WRITE TO DAC
button.
In LDAC synchronous loading mode, the WRITE TO DAC
button writes the required data to the input shift register and
toggles the LDAC signal, which then loads the DAC register
and updates the output voltage.
In LDAC asynchronous loading mode, the WRITE TO DAC
button writes the required data to the input shift register, but
the user toggles the LDAC signal by clicking the LDAC switch
to load the DAC register and update the output voltage.
This function allows the user to place the AD5570 in powerdown mode and to remove the AD5570 from power-down
mode. Clicking the POWER DOWN switch places the AD5570
in power-down mode, at the same time the text on the button
changes to POWER UP, indicating that clicking the button
again removes the AD5570 from power-down mode.
Clear
Clicking the CLEAR switch causes the CLR signal of the
AD5570 to be pulsed low, which has the effect of setting the
output voltage to 0 V.
