-For component evaluation and performance purposes, as opposed to quick prototyping, the user is directed to Analog Devices [[/resources/eval/sdp|System Demonstration Platform]] (**SDP**). The **SDP** consists of a: +{{page>common_sdp}}
-  * a controller board, like the **[[resources/eval/sdp/sdp-b|EVAL-SDP-CB1Z]] (SDP-B)** +
-  * a compatible Analog Devices SDP [[adi>sdp#exallist|product evaluation board]] +
-  * corresponding PC software +
-The EVAL-SDP-CB1Z controller board is part of Analog Devices SDP providing USB 2.0 high-speed connectivity to a PC computer running specific component evaluation software.  Each SDP evaluation daughter board includes the necessary installation files needed for this performance testing. It's expected that the analog performance on the two platforms may differ.+

-The following figure presents the **uC-Probe** interface that can be used for monitoring and controlling the operation of the **EVAL-AD5755SDZ** evaluation board.+This section presents the UART Terminal Interface, which helps the user to interact with the software application, that will run on the **Xilinx KC705** FPGA board.
  
-{{ :resources:fpga:altera:bemicro:ad5755_interface.png?700 }}+To use this interface, a terminal emulator software is needed, in this case the **Tera Term** is used.
  
-**Section A** is used to activate the board and monitor activity. The communication with the board is activated deactivated by toggling the **//ON/OFF//** switchThe **//Activity//** LED turns green when the communication is active. If the **//ON/OFF//** switch is set to **//ON//** and the **//Activity//** LED is **//BLACK//** it means that there is a communication problem with the board.+After programing the **KC705** FPGA with the //download.bit// file provided in the reference design archive, the message **AD5755 OK** should appear at the terminal window.
