Using the ADS1178EVM-PDK/ADS1278EVM-PDK Plug-in ADCPro
The ADS1278EVM-PDK plug-in for ADCPro provides complete control over all settings of the ADS1278. It
consists of a tabbed interface (see Figure 2) with different functions available on different tabs. The tabs
are:
• Channel Enable
• Settings
• About
The user can adjust the ADS1178EVM/ADS1278EVM settings when not acquiring data. During
acquisition, all controls are disabled and settings may not be changed. When a setting is changed on the
ADS1178EVM/ADS1278EVM plug-in, the setting immediately updates on the board.
Settings on the ADS1178EVM/ADS1278EVM correspond to settings described in the ADS1278 product
data sheet product data sheet.
4.1
Top Level Controls
You can adjust the ADS1278EVM settings when you are not acquiring data. During acquisition, all
controls are disabled and settings may not be changed.
The effective data rate of the ADS1278 depends upon settings of the Clock Freq and Operating Mode.
The Data Rate indicator in the upper right corner of the plug-in interface (see Figure 2) is always visible
and updates whenever a setting changes that affects the data rate.
4.2
Channel Enable Tab
The ADS1278 can acquire data from one to eight channels simultaneously. The Channel Enable tab (as
shown in Figure 2) provides the control to power on or off each channel.

Figure 3. Clock Settings and Mode
The Clock Source control selects the input clock source for the ADS1278. The clock can be selected
from the MMB0 PLL, an External source, or use the On-board oscillator.
The Modulator Frequency indicator shows the ADS1278 modulator frequency based on the clock
source.
The Clock Frequency control allows the user to input the desired clock frequency when the PLL clock
source is selected. Once the frequency is entered, the software finds the closest frequency for the PLL to
synthesize (and which is within the maximum allowable frequency for the mode selected). This clock
frequency is configured in the PLL and overwrites the user entered value in the Clock Frequency
indicator.
The Operating Mode control allows selection of the converter operating mode: High-Speed, HighResolution, Low-Power, or Low-Speed.
The CLKDIV control can be set to 0 or 1.
The Data Output Format allows selection of the data output formats. For the ADS1278EVM software, the
formats are limited to the Frame-Sync, TDM Format. The available options select whether the software
collects data for all channels Fixed Mode or only channels that are powered up Dynamic Mode.
The Vref control allows the user to input the current Vref value being used by the data converter. This
control does not change the actual reference voltage, but is required for the software to process the data
correctly for display.
The maximum clock frequency is shown for the different converter options in Table 4.

Power-Down, MODE, and FORMAT Control
The ADS1278 has several pins to control the power-down of individual channels, and select the mode and
format for the digital interface.
For users of the ADS1278EVM as a standalone module, these pins may be pulled high or low through DIP
switches S1 and S2 (see Table 5). Refer to the ADS1278 product data sheet for complete details on these
pins and which state sets which options.
For use in the ADS1x7xEVM-PDK, the state of these pins is controlled by software, using the I2C port
expanders (U7 and U8) on the EVM. When using the EVM with the EVM-PDK, the DIP switches S1 and
S2 must all be switched down (toward the center of the board). The ADS1278EVM-PDK software checks
at startup to verify that these switches are set correctly, and generates an error message for incorrect
settings. The software cannot detect if the switches are changed after startup.
CAUTION
When using the ADS1x7xEVM-PDK, the DIP switches S1 and S2 must all be
switched down (toward the center of the board). Failure to do so may damage
the EVM.
5.3
Clock Source
The ADS1278 clock can come from one of several sources: the onboard 27MHz crystal oscillator, a clock
supplied by a processor on the TOUT pin (J4.17), or an external clock source connected between J4.17
(TOUT) and J4.18 (DGND).
If the onboard 27MHz oscillator is selected, the device can be run in high-speed mode, high-resolution
mode, low-power mode, or low-speed modes with CLKDIV set to 1.
If the performance of the device must be explored with CLKDIV set to 0 in the low-power and low-speed
modes, an external clock must be provided to the board, either using the TOUT connection or having an
external clock source connected to J4.17. The same condition is true if frequencies other than the 27MHz
provided by the onboard oscillator must be investigated.
5.4
Analog Headers, J1 and J3
For maximum flexibility, the ADS1278EVM is designed for easy interfacing to multiple analog sources.
These headers/socket provide access to the analog input pins of the ADS1278.
Four of the analog input sources (Channels 1–4) connect directly to J3 (top or bottom side) or through
signal-conditioning modules available for the modular EVM system. These inputs have provisions to buffer
the inputs using THS4521 before connecting to the converter. Switches S4, S5, S7, and S8 provide the
capability to connect either the header directly or through a buffer. When the buffers are not selected, the
op-amps used for buffering can be powered down by shorting JP3.

Analog input sources (Channels 5-8) are connected directly to J1. These inputs can be filtered by
installing passive components in the option filter circuitry. By default, the resistors are populated with 0-Ω
resistors and the capacitors are not installed. No circuitry is provided to buffer these signals before
connecting to the converter.

Digital Interface
The digital signals are controlled via DSP interface or I2C ICs on the EVM. Some of the digital control pins
allow control via hardware or software methods. See Section 5.2 for details on these pins and their
operation. The digital control signals can be applied directly to the EVM or by connecting the EVM to a
DSP or micro controller interface board, such as the MMB0 if purchased as part of the ADS1278EVMPDK, the 5-6K Interface or HPA-MCUInterface boards which are available from Texas Instruments. For a
list of compatible interface and/or accessory boards for the EVM or the ADS1278, see the relevant product
folder on the TI web site.
5.5.1
Digital Format Control
The ADS1278 allows the serial interface to be used in two different formats: an SPI-compatible mode and
a frame-sync format. Switch S6 is populated with jumpers to select between these two formats:
• SPI format configures the signals as follows:

– The SCLK input of the converter is driven by the serial port signal CLKX, pin J4.3.
– The signal from the selected source for the clock (see Section 5.3, Clock Source) is connected to
the CLKR pin (J4.5) allowing the serial port of a processor to be synchronized to the converters
master clock.
– The signal from the selected clock source is routed to the CLK input of the converter.
– Port P10 of the I2C port expander U8 is connected to a logic high level, so that the position of
switch S12 can be read back by software.
FS format configures the signals as follows:
– The SCLK input of the converter is driven by the serial port signal CLKR, pin J4.5.
– The signal from the selected clock source is connected to the CLKX pin (J4.3), allowing the serial
port of a processor to be synchronized to the converter's master clock.
– The CLK input of the converter is driven by the CLKR signal (J4.5). This ensures that the CLK and
SCLK signals have the same phase and the correct ratio as outlined in the data sheet of the
device.
– Port P10 of the I2C port expander U8 is connected to a logic low level, so that the position of S6
can be read back by software.
•
For use in the ADS1278EVM-PDK, the jumpers on S6 must be installed in the FS positions, which is the
factory default setting. See Figure 1.
Switching to SPI format will allow users to connect the EVM to any SPI-compatible processor not
supporting the frame-sync mode. If this format is selected, keep in mind that the high-speed mode will not
operate at full speed (32.768MHz) because of the limitations outlined in the device product data sheet.
5.5.2
Serial Data Interface, J4
This header/socket provides access to the digital control and serial data pins of the ADC.
All logic levels on J4 are 3.3V CMOS, except for the I2C™ pins. These pins conform to 3.3V I2C rules.

ADS1278EVM Hardware Details
www.ti.com
Some pins on J5 have weak pull-up/down resistors. These resistors provide default settings for many of
the control pins. Many pins on J5 correspond directly to ADS1278 pins. See the ADS1278 product data
sheet for complete details on these pins.
5.5.3
Data Output Signals
5.5.3.1
DOUT on Digital Interface J4
In TDM mode, the data from all eight channels can be observed on the DOUT1 pin of the converter. The
DOUT1 signal is used by the ADS1x7xEVM-PDK to read back and display all the channels. The digital
data output pin on the digital interface header J4 is connected to DOUT1 signal via a D flip-flop. The D
flip-flop provides a half cycle delay in order to align the data correctly to reach the higher speeds of the
device. Otherwise, the propagation delay from the MSB in Frame Sync mode may result in missing the
MSB out of the data word.
5.5.3.2
DOUTx Header, J2
All the data output signals (DOUT1 to DOUT8) can be monitored on J2. Table 9 illustrates the pinout for
J2.

Power Supply Header, J5
J5 is the power-supply input connector. Table 10 lists the configuration details for J5. Supplies of 1.8V,
3.3V, and 5.0V are required for operation of the EVM. When using the EVM as part of the EVM-PDK,
these voltages are generated by the MMB0 and no external supplies are required. For operation as a
stand-alone EVM, the power supplies should be connected as shown below.

Pin 1 is bottom left-hand corner, located next to reference designator.
NOTE: For monitoring the current from each supply, CM1, CM2, and CM3 (0Ω resistors) can be
removed and replaced with sense resistors or ammeters.
The ADS1278 digital supplies are connected as follows:
• IOVDD supply is connected to the +1.8VD pin of the J3 header.
• DVDD supply is connected to the +3.3VD pin of the J3 header.
The ADS1278 analog supply, AVDD, is connected to the +5VA pin of the J5 header.
