 +===== General Description =====
 +The [[ADI>ADSKPMB10-EV-FMCZ]] signal chain kit (Figure 1) is part of the [[adi>en/applications/technology/precision-technology/precision-medium-bandwidth.html | Precision Medium Bandwidth]] evaluation board plus series. It is a two-board solution consist of a Precision Medium Bandwidth Data Acquisition Solution on a PMOD form factor and a Fully Isolated PMOD-to-FMC interposer board.  
 +
 +The Precision Medium Bandwidth Data Acquisition Solution features a discrete programmable gain instrumentation amplifier (PGIA) that was built using a 30V, High Speed, Low Noise, Low Bias Current, JFET Operational Amplifier, the [[adi>ADA4627-1]], a Precision Quad Matched Resistor Network, the [[adi>LT5400]], a Low Capacitance, 4-Channel, ±15 V/+12 V iCMOS™ Multiplexer, the [[adi>ADG1209]] and the internal Fully Differential Amplifier (FDA) ADC driver of the [[adi>ADAQ4003]]. The PGIA in thru front-end offers high input impedance that allows direct interface with a variety of sensors. A programmable gain is often needed to adapt the circuit to different input signal amplitudes—unipolar or bipolar and single-ended or differential with varying common-mode voltages. The PGIA works with the [[adi>ADAQ4003]], an 18-Bit, 2 MSPS, µModule® Data Acquisition Solution.
 +
 +The Fully Isolated PMOD-to-FMC interposer board was designed using a Low Noise, 1A, 1MHz Push-Pull DC/DC Driver with Duty Cycle Control, the [[adi>LT3999]], a Robust 3.0kVrms Digital Isolators w/ Fail-Safe for the SPI lines and PGIA gain control pins, the  [[adi>ADuM152N]]  and the [[adi>ADuM120N]], and a Low noise and ultra-low noise LDO regulators the [[adi>ADP7105]] and the [[adi>ADP150N]] respectively.

 +===== Hardware Description and Performance =====
 +{{ :resources:eval:user-guide:adskpmb10-ev-fmcz:simplified_block_diagram.svg?545 |}}
 +
 +<WRAP centeralign> //Figure 19. Simplified Evaluation Board Block Diagram// </WRAP>
 +
 +Figure 19 shows the simplified block diagram of the [[adi> ADSKPMB10-EV-FMCZ]], which is composed of the two boards: the PMOD-to-FMC interposer board and the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board.
 +
 +The PMOD-to-FMC interposer board consists of the digital isolators, [[adi> ADuM152N]] (U1) and [[adi> ADuM120N]] (U7), the DC/DC regulator [[adi> LT3999]] (U6), and lastly, the LDO regulators, [[adi> ADP7105]] (U2) and [[adi> ADP150N]] (U4). 
 +
 +The PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board consists of the [[adi>ADAQ4003]] µModule (U2), a 5.0 V reference (U1, [[adi>ADR4550]]), the analog front-end circuitry — with the discrete PGIA (A1 and A2, [[adi>ADA4627-1]]), the [[adi>ADG1209]] (U5) multiplexer, the precision quad matched resistor network (RN1, RN2, and RN3, [[adi>LT5400]]) — and lastly, the on-board power supplies to derive the necessary supply rails, namely, the (U3, [[adi> ADP5070]]), (U2, [[adi> LT3032]]), and (U6, [[adi> LT3023]]).
 +
 +==== Power Supplies ====
 +
 +=== Fully Isolated PMOD-to-FMC Interposer Board ===
 +The Fully Isolated PMOD-to-FMC interposer board was designed using a Low Noise, 1A, 1MHz Push-Pull DC/DC Driver with Duty Cycle Control, the [[adi>LT3999]], a Robust 3.0 kVrms Digital Isolators w/ Fail-Safe for the SPI lines and PGIA gain control pins, the  [[adi>ADuM152N]]  and the [[adi>ADuM120N]], and a Low noise and ultra low noise LDO regulators the [[adi>ADP7105]] and the [[adi>ADP150N]] respectively. 
 +
 +The interposer board was designed to cater multiple VIO voltage levels. The user has 3 options on the FMC VIO side and by default, the VIO is connected or set by FMC's VADJ pin. 3.3 V and 1.8 V is also available in case other VIO voltage level is needed as shown in Figure 20 below. <WRAP centeralign> {{:resources:eval:user-guide:adskpmb10-ev-fmcz:option_fmc_side_vio.png?nolink |}}//Figure 20. FMC side VIO Options// </WRAP>
 +
 +On the PMOD side, the user has an option to connect the VCC pin of the PMOD Data Acquisition device directly to LT3999's push-pull transformer output or to provide a regulated 3.3 V output using the ADP7105. By default, the PMOD VCC is powered directly from the LT3999's push-pull transformer output as shown in Figure 21 below. 
 +<WRAP centeralign> {{:resources:eval:user-guide:adskpmb10-ev-fmcz:option_pmod_vcc.png?nolink |}}// Figure 21. PMOD VCC Options// </WRAP>
 +
 +=== PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board ===
 +The SDP-H1 supplies 3.3 V to power the rails for the different components on the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board. The ADAQ4003 µModule use four power supply pins: the ADC driver positive supply (VS+), the ADC driver negative supply (VS−), the core ADC supply (VDD), and the digital input and output interface supply (VIO). The VIO pin allows the direct interface with any logic between 1.8 V and 5.5 V. A combination of the ADP5070 (dual, high-performance dc-to-dc switching regulator), the LT3032 (dual, low noise, positive and negative low dropout voltage linear regulator), and the LT3023 (dual, micropower, low noise, low dropout regulator) can generate independently regulated positive and negative rails for all four power supply pins, including ±15 V rails for any additional signal conditioning.
 +
 +
 +<WRAP centeralign> //Table 1. Default Power Supplies// </WRAP>
 +{{ :resources:eval:user-guide:adskpmb10-ev-fmcz:power_supplies.svg?600 |}}
 +
 +
 +Each supply is decoupled at the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board entrance and device connection. A single, on-board ground plane minimizes the effect of the high frequency noise interference.
 +
 +In addition, the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board can be powered from a benchtop power supply of ±16 V. The +16 V, −16 V, and GND test points are available on board to support this function. When bench power is used, the on-board power supplies are no longer required, and the link between the output pin of the ADP5070 must be removed, that is, uninstall R65 and R66.
 +
 +Take the following steps to set up the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board when using a benchtop power supply of ±16 V:
 +  - Connect the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board to the Isolated PMOD-to-FMC interposer board at the P1 header (see Figure 17).
 +  - Connect the Isolated PMOD-to-FMC interposer board to the SDP-H1 via the 160-pin FMC connector.
 +  - Connect the USB and a 12 V power adapter to the SDP-H1. Ensure that the software and drivers are installed.
 +  - Connect the +16 V and −16 V bench supplies to the +16 V and −16 V test points on the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board. Connect also the bench supply ground to the GND test point (see Figure 22).
 +  - Power up the benchtop supply. The +16 V supply rail draws approximately 25 mA, and the −16 V supply rail draws approximately 20 mA. <WRAP centeralign> {{:resources:eval:user-guide:adskpmb10-ev-fmcz:external_supply.png?nolink |}} //Figure 22. External Supply Optional Connections// </WRAP>
 +
 +The evaluation kit is now ready to use. Note that by default, the PGIA + ADAQ4003 Data Acquisition Board are set up to accept a differential input with a 22 V range.
 +
 +
 +
 +==== SDP-H1 Controller Board ====
 +The [[adi>ADSKPMB10-EV-FMCZ]] evaluation board uses the serial peripheral interface (SPI) and is connected to the high speed controller board for the system demonstration platform (SDP-H1) controller board. The SDP-H1 board requires power from a 12 V wall adapter. The SDP-H1 has the Xilinx® Spartan 6 and [[adi>ADSP-BF527]] processor with connectivity to the PC through a USB 2.0 high speed port. The controller boards configure and capture data on the daughter boards from the PC through a USB.
 +
 +The SDP-H1 has an FMC low pin count (LPC) connector with full differential LVDS and singled-ended LVCMOS support. It also features the 160-pin connector, found on the [[adi>SDP-B]], which exposes the Blackfin® processor peripherals. This connector provides a configurable serial, parallel I²C and SPI, and general-purpose input/output (GPIO) communication lines to the attached daughter board for the functional description of the on-board power supplies.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +==== Analog Inputs ====
 +The analog input signals of the board are the Subminiature Version A (SMA) connectors, J3 and J4, by default. Similarly, an option for the Subminiature Version B (SMB) connectors, J1 and J2 are also available. These analog inputs are fed to the dedicated amplifier circuitry, [[adi>ADA4627-1]] (A1 and A2), and are set as unity-gain buffers at the factory. 
 +
 +The analog inputs are fully differential by default, with both inputs floating with high impedance. Thus, ensure the signal source is properly biased to a common-mode voltage. See Table 2 for input range configuration and control.
 +
 +Measure the true dynamic range of the board by connecting the two inputs to the board’s ground reference by using SMA terminators (see Figure 23).
 +
 +<WRAP centeralign> {{ :resources:eval:user-guide:adskpmb10-ev-fmcz:terminator.png?nolink |}} //Figure 23. Short the inputs to ground using SMA terminators to measure the Signal Chain Dynamic Range// </WRAP>
 +
 +For dynamic performance, a fast Fourier transform (FFT) test can be performed by applying a low distortion AC source. For low frequency testing, the audio precision source, such as the APx500 series, can be used directly with the evaluation boards. Different precision sources can be used with additional filtering.
 +
 +==== Hardware Link Options ====
 +Set the multiple link options correctly for the appropriate operating setup before applying the power and signal to the ADSKPMB10-EV-FMCZ. Table 1 shows the default link positions for the ADSKPMB10-EV-FMCZ.

 +
 +
 +
 +
 +==== Precision Medium Bandwidth Data Acquisition Solution ====
 +This Data Acquisition Solution has 4 gain options, as shown in Table 2. The gain of the signal chain can be controlled by changing the logic levels of the ADG1209 A0 and A1 pins. This can be done through the software or by adjusting the jumpers JA0 and JA1.

 +=== Configure Tab View===
 +
 +
 +Figure 29 shows the **Configure** tab view. The **Configure** tab provides controls for configuring the connected device and software settings. The Configure tab view contains the following controls and indicators:
 +
 +  * **Eval Board Connected** (Label 6 in Figure 29): indicates that the evaluation board is connected to the software.
 +  * **Oversampling Ratio** (Label 7 in Figure 29): sets the oversampling ratio applied to the captured data. After this control is set to any value other than **None**, the software sums up the consecutive conversion results together to increase effective resolution. The number of conversions summed together is set by the **Oversampling Ratio** control.
 +  * **Throughput (kSPS)** (Label 8 in Figure 29): sets the throughput of the connected device. The maximum value of this control is automatically set to reflect the maximum achievable throughput of the connected device, given the state of the **Status Bits** and **Turbo Mode** controls. See the relevant [[adi>ADAQ4003]] device data sheet for more information on maximum achievable throughput.
 +  * **Gain Control** (Label 8 in Figure 29): sets the PGIA Front-end Gain of the device. The user can choose from 1, 2, 5, or 10.
 +  * **Voltage Reference (VREF)** (Label 10 in Figure 29): sets the VREF used in data analysis such as when calculating LSB Size (see Label 2 in Figure 30), or measured voltage in the waveform graph (see the Waveform Tab View section. This control must be set to match the VREF used on the connected evaluation board.
 +  * **Device Config Settings** (Label 11 in Figure 29): configures the connected device user configuration register settings. See the relevant ADAQ4003 device data sheet for a detailed description of the user configuration register and the device features.
 +    * **Status Bits:** enables or disables the status bits for the connected device.
 +    * **Span Compression:** enables or disables span compression for the connected device.
 +    * **High-Z Mode:** enables or disables high-Z mode.
 +    * **Turbo Mode:** enables or disables turbo mode for the connected device.
 +  * **Read Register** (Label 12 in Figure 29): reads the device user register. When **Read Register** is clicked, the contents of the connected device register are read to update the **Device Config Settings** items accordingly.
 +  * Device configuration settings display (Label 13 in Figure 29): displays the status of the user register when **Read Register** is clicked. Each of the following indicators displays the state of the corresponding settings:
 +    * **Status Bits, Span Compression, High-Z Mode,** and **Turbo Mode** status indicators indicate whether the corresponding device are reported as enabled or disabled in the user configuration register.
 +    * **Overvoltage Clamp Flag:** indicates the status of the OV clamp flag in the user configuration register of the connected device. When this indicator is red, the OV flag is low, indicating the presence of an overvoltage event.
 +  * **Status Bits Indicators** (Label 14 in Figure 29): displays the configuration settings of the device as indicated by the status bits. The status bits are enabled with the **Status Bits** control in the **Device Config Settings** pane (Label 11 in Figure 29). The **Status Bits Indicators** are only updated after conversions are performed with the **Single Capture** or **Continuous Capture** controls when the status bits are enabled on the connected device. The status bit functionality is described in the relevant ADAQ4003 device data sheet. 
 +  * The **Span Compression, High-Z Mode,** and **Turbo Mode** status indicators indicate whether features of the corresponding device are reported as enabled or disabled by the status bits.
 +  * **Overvoltage Clamp Flag:** displays whether the OV clamp flag in the status bits indicated an overvoltage event in any of the conversions in the most recently displayed results. When this indicator is red, the OV flag is low, indicating the presence of an overvoltage event. See the ADAQ4003 datasheet for more details on the OV clamp flag.

 +===== Troubleshooting =====
 +==== Software ====
 +To troubleshoot the software, take the following steps:
 +  - Always install the software before connecting the hardware to the PC.
 +  - Make sure to completely finish the installation (the software is a two-part installation, the evaluation software and the SDP-H1 drivers). A restart is recommended after installation is finished.
 +  - When the user initially plugs in the SDP-H1 via the provided USB cable, allow the Found New Hardware Wizard to run, which can take several seconds. Allow this to happen first before starting the software.
 +  - If the ADSKPMB10-EV-FMCZ or SDP-H1 board are connected to the PC via the USB port, but are not detected by the software, ensure that the board is being recognized in the Device Manager, as shown in Figure 18.
 +  - If connected to a slower USB port where the SDP-H1 cannot read as quickly as it needs to, a timeout error can result. In this case, it is advised not to read continuously, or alternatively, to lower the number of samples taken.
 +
 +
 +==== Hardware ====
 +To troubleshoot the hardware, take the following steps:
 +  - If the software does not read back any data, do the following:
 +    * Check that the power is applied within the power ranges described in the Power Supplies section.
 +    * Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage present at each of the test points: P15V, N15V, N1V, 1V8, and 5V5. Note that the LED1 on the SDP-H1 must be lit.
 +    * Launch the software and read the data. If nothing happens, exit the software.
 +    * Power down the board and relaunch the software.
 +    * If no data is read back, confirm that the evaluation board is connected to the SDP-H1, and that the SDP-H1 is being recognized in the Device Manager, as shown in Figure 18.
 +  - When the user is working with the software in standalone/offline mode (no hardware connected) and later chooses to connect hardware, close and relaunch the software.
