GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This user guide describes the evaluation boards for evaluating the

AD5161, a 256-position SPI-/I2C-selectable digital potentiometer.

The AD5161 supports single-supply 2.7 V to 5.5 V operation,

making the device suitable for battery-powered applications and

many applications requiring superior low temperature coefficient

performance.

In addition, the AD5161 has a pin-selectable SPI- or I2C-

compatible digital interface, which can be used to control the

wiper settings or to read back the wiper register content. In SPI

mode, the device can be daisy-chained (SDO to SDI), allowing

several parts to share the same control lines. In I2C mode,

Address Pin AD0 can be used to place up to two devices on the

same bus. In this same mode, command bits are available to reset

the wiper position to midscale or to shut down the device into a

state of zero power consumption.

The E VA L -AD5161DBZ daughter board and the E VA L -MB-

LV-SDZ motherboard can operate in single-supply mode and

incorporate an internal power supply from the USB.

Complete specifications for the AD5161 can be found in the

AD5161 data sheet, which is available from www.analog.com

and should be consulted in conjunction with this user guide

when using the evaluation board.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE

POWER SUPPLIES

The EVAL-MB-LV-SDZ supports using single power supplies.

The evaluation board can be powered either from the SDP port

or externally by the J1 and J2 connectors, as described in Table 1.

All supplies are decoupled to ground using 10 µF and 0.1 µF

ceramic capacitors.

LINK OPTIONS

Several link and switch options are incorporated on the EVAL-

MB-LV-SDZ and E VA L -AD5161DBZ boards and must be set

up before using the evaluation system. The functions of these

link options are described in detail in Table 2 through Table 6.

By default, the evaluation system is set up to be controlled by a

PC via the SDP board.

DIGITAL INTERFACE

The E VA L -AD5161DBZ can be configured as an I2C or SPI

digital interface, depending on the position of the P9 jumper. If

the device is configured in I2C mode, the P10 jumper selects the

I2C address. See Table 3 for further details.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE

INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE

The E VA L -AD5161DBZ kit includes evaluation board software

provided on a CD. The software is compatible with Windows® X P,

Windows Vista, and Windows 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions).

Install the software before connecting the SDP board to the

USB port of the PC to ensure that the SDP board is recognized

when it is connected to the PC.

1. Start the Windows operating system and insert the CD.

2. The installation software opens automatically. If it does

not, run the setup.exe file from the CD.

3. After the installation is complete, power up the evaluation

board as described in the Power Supplies section.

4. Connect the E VA L -AD5161DBZ and E VA L -MB-LV-SDZ to

the SDP board and the SDP board to the PC.

5. When the software detects the evaluation board, follow the

instructions that appear to finalize the installation.

RUNNING THE SOFTWARE

To run the program, do the following:

1. Click Start > All Programs > Analog Devices > AD5161

> AD5161 Eval Board. (To uninstall the program, click

Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs >

AD5161 Eval Board.)

2. If the SDP board is not connected to the USB port when

the software is launched, a connectivity error displays (see

Figure 7). If a connectivity error is displayed, connect the

evaluation board to the USB port of the PC and wait a few

seconds, and then click Rescan and follow the instructions

that appear on-screen.

OPERATING THE SOFTWARE

The main window of the E VA L -AD5161DBZ software is

divided into two tabs: Visual Control and Manual Control.

Visual Control Tab

The Visual Control tab, as shown in Figure 8, contains a block

diagram that allows inputting data in hexadecimal format to be

written to or read from the device. To write data to the device, type

a hexadecimal value into the Data to write box and click Wr ite .

To read data from the device, click Read; the data is displayed

in hexadecimal format in the Data read box. A slider control,

located on the right side of the window, allows changing the

wiper setting.

Manual Control Tab

The Manual Control tab, as shown in Figure 9, allows customizing

an I2C or SPI data-word by manually switching each serial data-

word from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 0, as desired, and then clicking

I2C Write or SPI Write/Read. Similarly, data can also be read

from either I2C or SPI using the corresponding controls.

The I2C Data Written or SPI Data Written box shows the

value that is written to the evaluation board. It is set using the

sliders in the I2C – Wr ite or SPI – Write / Read section.

Exiting the window closes the program.
