If this option is chosen, the user must solder the DUT directly to the board. This position is only useful for 2 or 3 solder cycles. The DEM-ADS7843E/45E evaluation fixture is designed for stand-alone evaluation or evaluation using the clocking network on the board. Stand-alone evaluations imply that the A/D converter is powered by J4 (power supply connector) and the user is put to the task to provide analog and digital input excitation. This is achieved by removing all five jumper tops of JP4 and using J1 and J2 for direct connections to the device under test (DUT). CAUTION: DO NOT connect the a device into the DUT1 socket and have another device soldered to the board in position X1 at the same time. The additional equipment required to do a complete evaluation of the performance of the ADS7843E or ADS7845E comprises of: In contrast, the DEM-ADS7843E/45E/45E board has the appropriate digital interface circuitry to drive the DUT data clock, chip select, and serial data in which is coordinated with the BUSY and PENIRQ to provide serial and parallel output data. +5VDC power supply Voltage or current signal source 4-Wire (ADS7843E) or 5-Wire (ADS7845E) Resistive Touch Screen This kit includes the following items: To install the DEM-ADS7843E/45E evaluation fixture, connect the appropriate power supply to J4. When power is applied to the DEM-ADS7843E/45E, the red LED on the board should light.

Jumper (JPx) Assignments. (R) DEM-ADS7843E/45E 2 DUT CONNECTIONS The digital I/O pins of the DUT may be driven or monitored with the J2 connector. The assignment of these pins are summarized in Table V. The DEM-ADS7843E/45E DUT Board has a socket for the DUT which is positioned in the DUT1 position. Additionally, it has a solder footprint in the event that the user chooses to solder the DUT directly to the board. This footprint is poisitioned in X1, just below the DUT1 socket. If the solder footprint is used, care should be taken to preserve the solder pads for repeated soldering. Bad X1 solder pads do not interfere with the operation or connections of the DUT1 socket. J2 PIN NUMBER (From Left to Right) The DEM-ADS7843E/45E evaluation fixture is designed to evaluate both the ADS7843 and ADS7845 A/D converters. JP9 must be in position B to evaluate either the ADS7843 or ADS7845. B The power supply from J4 is configured to pin 9 (VREF) of the DUT. C 2.5V is configured to pin 9 (VREF) of the DUT. DCLK 3 BUSY 4 DIN 5 PENIRQ 6 DOUT The DUT can be evaluated in a stand-alone configuration by removing all of the jumper tops of JP4. JP4 connects pins 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 of the DUT to the digital interface circuitry of the board. If the array of jumper tops are not removed, the user may find significant conflicts on the digital I/O lines of the DUT. The details of this interface circuitry is discussed in detail in the "Digital Interface" section of this data sheet. DIGITAL INTERFACE CIRCUITRY The DUT can be evaluated using the digital clocking circuitry on the board by installing all of the jumper tops of JP4 and removing any signal present on the J2 connector. This digital circuit uses the clock signal from P1 (External Clock) or Y1 to create the DUT clock (DCLK), CS, and the DIN code to the device while providing a serial or parallel output signal from the DOUT pin of the DUT. RESULTING CONFIGURATION 1.2V is configured to pin 9 (VREF) of the DUT. CS 2 STAND-ALONE OPERATION The voltage reference to the DUT is programmed in the JP1. The JP1 options are given in Table III. A 1 TABLE V. J2 Connector Contacts versus DUT Pins. (NOTE: If you have a DEM-ADS7843E/45E, Revision A, the silkscreen is in error. The above description is correct.) Space for an R/C input filter has been provided to allow user customization for the particular application. Shorting bars have been installed in R3, R5, R7, R9, R10, and R12 positions on the board. These are positioned betwen the input of the DUT and the pin connector, P1. Shorting bars were used to allow for immediate evaluation of a four-wire touch screen. In this situation, the touch screen would provide the source resistance. If resistors are desired in positions R3, R5, R7, R9, R10, and R12, the user can solder in the desired values. Additionally, positions for capacitors at the input of the DUT are provided with C3, C4, C5, C6, C9 and C10. Once again, the user must install appropriate values for the application under evaluation. POSITION ADS7843 PIN DESCRIPTION TABLE III. VREF is Programmed Using JP1 Position Options. Clock Control The master clock to the board is set with the JP6 jumper. Position A of the JP6 jumper configures the External Clock (P1) coax connector into the circuit. It is recommended that this signal be a logic square wave. The signal from this connector will be used directly for the DCLK signal to the The combination of JP2 allows jumper programmable settings of the PENIRQ of the ADS7843 or ADS7845 pin of the DUT. Additionally, this pin can be accessed through J2 and a combination of JP10 and JP11. Refer to Table IV for jumper position details. Refer to the ADS7845 data sheet for additional options.

If there is no connection to position 5 of J2, pin 11 of the DUT will default LOW. Installed Not Installed Installed Pin 11 of the DUT is inverted and connected to position 5 of J2. If there is no connection to position 5 of J2, pin 11 of the DUT will default LOW. TABLE IV. PENIRQ (ADS7843 or ADS7845) Jumper Settings. 3 (R) DEM-ADS7843E/45E DIN Programming DUT. Refer to the ADS7843 or ADS7845 data sheet for the proper restrictions on this clock. Alternatively, a clock oscillator that is installed in Y1 can be used as the master clock. The signal from this device is either divided by 10 or divided by 20 per JP5. The settings from JP5 are listed in Table VI. JUMPER SETTING The DIN input (DUT, pin 14) receives an 8-bit serial input data stream which programs the ADS7843 or ADS7845 X or Y input channel, mode and power-down options. This serial stream can be programmed with JP3. JP3 is essentailly an 8bit parallel configuration which is processed by a parallel-toserial converter (U8) and then transmitted to the DUT at the appropriate time. Even when a position on JP3 is jumper top configured, digital gates can over drive their settings. Consequently, these lines are also connected to the digital breadboard area, which gives the user more flexibility in terms of programming this serial command byte. RESULTING CONFIGURATION A Y1 Frequency divided by 10. In conjunction with JP6 = B, this frequency becomes DCLK for the DUT. B Y1 frequency divided by 20. In conjunction with JP6 = B, this frequency becomes DCLK for the DUT. Parallel Output The combination of U13 and U14 converts the digital output of the DUT into a parallel word. This parallel word appears on the connector J3. A DVALID trigger is also provided on J3. Refer to Table VIII for the J3 connector configuration. TABLE VI. Jumper Settings for Using Y1 as Master Clock. Clocks per Conversion Control Once DCLK is set (per clock control instructions) the conversion cycle of the DUT can be configured to either take 16 or 24 clock cycles. The jumper configuration for these two modes of operation are shown in Table VII. Additionally, the timing diagram of these two modes of operation are shown in Figures 2 and 3. JP7 JP8 RESULTING CONFIGURATION A B 24 DCLK cycles per conversion B A 16 DCLK cycles per conversion TABLE VII. The Digital Support Circuitry Can be Operated in a 16 Clocks per Conversion or a 24 Clocks per Conversion with the Jumper Settings Described in the Table.
