BUF08821EVM Software
The BUF08821EVM software is included on the CD that is shipped with the EVM. It is also availablethrough the BUF08821EVM product folder on the TI web site at www.ti.com . To download the software toyour system, insert the disc into an an available CD-ROM drive. Navigate to the drive contents and openthe BUF08821EVM software folder. Locate the compressed file ( BUF08821EVM.zip) and open it. Extractthe BUF08821EVM files into a specific BUF08821 folder on your hard drive.
Once the files are unzipped, navigate to the BUF08821 folder that you created on your hard drive. Locatethe setup.exe file; click the file to start the installation process, as shown in Figure 1 .
Figure 1. BUF08821EVM Software Installation
Follow all on-screen commands to finish installing the software.
The EVM software is controlled through a graphical user interface (GUI). The software communicates withthe EVM through an available COM or other serial port on the PC. Pressing the COM Setting buttonbrings up a panel that allows you to change the serial port number through which the PC communicateswith the BUF08821EVM, as shown in Figure 2 . COM1 is an appropriate choice for most PCs. You canalso set the appropriate baud rate through the same dialog box.

The BKSEL switch (illustrated in Figure 5 ) selects the memory bank to be used when operating the EVM.Bank 1 selects the gamma curve that is stored in Bank_0 of the BUF08821. Bank 2 selects the gammacurve that is stored in Bank_1 of the BUF08821.
The SCL and SDA jumpers must be installed on the EVM in order to allow communication between theboard and the BUF08821. The communications cable must be connected to COM1 or another COM porton your PC.

(logic '1'). Note that thesoftware Change Address button must be as shown in Figure 6 for A0 = '1'.
Figure 6. BUF08821EVM Jumper JP1 Set for Logic '1'
When JP1 is in the position shown in Figure 7 , A0 on the BUF08821 is connected to GND (logic '0'). Notethat the software must be as shown in Figure 7 for an address of A0 = '0'.
Figure 7. BUF08821EVM Jumper JP1 Set for Logic '0'
Note: Pressing the Change Address button (located near the top of the interface) changes the I

The voltage out of each DAC
will be calculated according to
the V value entered.
S
Changing this cell immediately changes
the output of DAC8 to 0.996V.
www.ti.com
Using the BUF08821EVM Software
The interface displays the last power-supply value used for the new address. This feature is helpful whenchanging back to an address that was previously used. Whenever the address is changed, a Read DACcommand is automatically performed so that all the DAC output displays are updated. Red indicates thatthe address is A0 = '0', as Figure 10 shows.
You must measure the power supply (V
S
) value against GND, and then enter it in the Vsup field of thesoftware interface, as shown in Figure 11 . The voltage out of each DAC is calculated according to the V
Svalue entered.

For example, changing the value in the DAC 15 cell immediately changes the output of DAC15 to 0.996V.The calculation is performed according to Equation 1 .
For example:
DAC 15: Code 44 (hexadecimal) = 68 (decimal)
Push the ReadDAC button to read the binary value in the DAC output registers of the BUF08821. Pushingthe Reset button forces an I

C general call reset and causes all registers in the BUF08821 to reset to therespective default values (mid-code or V

/2). Figure 12 illustrates the Reset and Read DAC buttons.
Figure 12. Reset and Read DAC Buttons
The register configurations of the BUF08821 DACs are displayed in both analog voltage and inhexadecimal (see Figure 11 ). The DAC codes (that is, gamma voltages) can be saved into a text file usingthe Save to File button.
