Prerequisites

What you need depends on what you are trying to do. As a minimum, you need to start out with:

Hardware prerequisites

The AD4110-1 evaluation board: EVAL-AD4110-1SDZ
The SDP-B controller board
- Acts as the USB communication link between the PC and the evaluation board.
A USB cable
An external ±12 V to ±20 V power supply
- A ±15 V supply is recommended and must be connected to J14 on the evaluation board.
- GND must be connected to the GND pin on J14.
A signal source appropriate for the desired demo mode
- Voltage mode: ±10 V signal
- Current mode: ±20 mA signal
- Thermocouple: Type-K or similar thermocouple
- RTD: 3-wire PT100 or similar RTD sensor

The following must be available before programming the ZedBoard:

HDL hardware platform export (system_top.xsa), built from the Build an HDL project
No-OS AD4110-1 project: projects/ad4110
Xilinx Vitis

The following must be installed on a PC running Windows before connecting the evaluation board:

AD4110-1 evaluation software
- Provides the graphical interface for configuring and evaluating the device.
- Must be installed before connecting the SDP-B board to the PC.
SDP-B board drivers (ADI SDP Drivers)
- Installed as part of the evaluation software setup.
- The PC must be restarted after driver installation.

Refer to SDP-B Quick Start for step-by-step installation instructions.

The AD4110-1 evaluation board: EVAL-AD4110-1SDZ
An SDP-K1 controller board
A USB cable for connecting SDP-K1 to the PC
On the host PC:
- Keil Studio for building and flashing the firmware
- Libiio Windows installer
- IIO Oscilloscope Windows installer

Note

ADI does not offer FPGA carrier boards or SDP-K1 boards for sale or loan; obtaining the hardware is the normal part of development and evaluation.
