 Currently there is no software available for the EV1HMC8362LP6G and EV1HMC8364LP6G because they can be evaluated without the use of software. However, the EV1HMC8362LP6G and EV1HMC8364LP6G are configured in a manner that allows use of a Linduino, Arduino Uno, or similar microcontroller board, which may be beneficial for users needing to develop and test switching algorithms for their application.  Currently there is no software available for the EV1HMC8362LP6G and EV1HMC8364LP6G because they can be evaluated without the use of software.

 To connect the Arduino Uno microcontroller to the EV1HMC8362LP6G or EV1HMC8364LP6G, flip the Arduino Uno board over so that the digital input/output pins (Pin 8 through Pin 14) line up with Pin 3 to Pin 15 of Connector P3, respectively. To connect the Arduino Uno microcontroller to the EV1HMC8362LP6G or EV1HMC8364LP6G, flip the Arduino Uno board over so that the digital input/output pins (Pin 8 through Pin 14) line up with Pin 3 to Pin 15 of Connector P3, respectively.

 The frequency vs. tune voltage listed in the following steps are specific to the EV1HMC8362LP6G, but the same process is applicable to the EV1HMC8364LP6G. The frequency range and performance are different.  The frequency vs. tune voltage listed in the following steps are specific to the EV1HMC8362LP6G, but the same process is applicable to the EV1HMC8364LP6G.
