AD796x no-OS Example Project

Overview

The EVAL-AD7960FMCZ is a fully featured evaluation Kit designed to demonstrate the performance of the low power 18-bit,5 MSPS PulSAR® Differential ADC AD7960.

This board operates in conjunction with the Zedboard. The evaluation software is provided to enable the user to perform detailed analysis of the AD7960’s performance. The technical user guide includes the detailed description of the operation and set up of the evaluation board and software when operated with the System Demonstration Platform board.

No-OS Build Setup

Please see: https://wiki.analog.com/resources/no-os/build

No-OS Supported Examples

The initialization data used in the examples is taken out from: Project Common Data Path

The macros used in Common Data are defined in platform specific files found in: Project Platform Configuration Path

Basic example

This is a simple example that initializes the AD796x, collects a numer of samples and prints the result on the uart.

In order to build the basic example make sure you have the following configuration in the Makefile Makefile

# Select the example you want to enable by choosing y for enabling and n for disabling
BASIC_EXAMPLE = y
IIO_EXAMPLE = n

IIO example

This project is actually a IIOD demo for EVAL-AD7960FMCZ evaluation board. The project launches a IIOD server on the board so that the user may connect to it via an IIO client. Using IIO-Oscilloscope, the user can configure the IMU and view the measured data on a plot.

If you are not familiar with ADI IIO Application, please take a look at: IIO No-OS

If you are not familiar with ADI IIO-Oscilloscope Client, please take a look at: IIO Oscilloscope

The No-OS IIO Application together with the No-OS IIO AD796x driver take care of all the back-end logic needed to setup the IIO server.

This example initializes the IIO device and calls the IIO app as shown in: IIO Example

In order to build the IIO project make sure you have the following configuration in the Makefile

# Select the example you want to enable by choosing y for enabling and n for disabling
BASIC_EXAMPLE = n
IIO__EXAMPLE = y
