GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This user guide details the operation of the EVA L -AD5344DBZ
for the AD5344 quad-channel, voltage output DAC. The
AD5344 operates from a single 2.5 V to 5.5 V supply.
The E VA L-AD5344DBZ is designed to quickly prototype AD5344
circuits and reduce design time. The E VA L-AD5344DBZ
interfaces with the USB port of a PC via the SDP-B controller
board. Software can be downloaded via the E VA L-AD5344DBZ
product page that allows users to program the AD5344.
The E VA L-AD5344DBZ evaluation board requires the SDP-B
controller board, which is available for order on the Analog
Devices website.
Full specifications for the AD5344 are listed in the AD5344 data
sheet available from Analog Devices and should be consulted in
conjunction with this user guide when using the evaluation board.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
POWER SUPPLIES
The nanoDAC® E VA L -MBnanoDAC-SDZ motherboard
supports single and dual power supplies.
The E VA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation board can be powered from
either the SDP-B port or externally by the J5 and J6 connectors,
described in Table 1.
Both AGND and DGND inputs are provided on the evaluation
board. The AGND and DGND planes are connected at one
location on the E VA L -MBnanoDAC-SDZ. It is recommended
that AGND and DGND do not connect elsewhere in the system
to avoid ground loop problems.
All supplies are decoupled to ground with 10 µF tantalum
capacitors and 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors.

LINK OPTIONS
A number of link options are incorporated in the EVA L -
MBnanoDAC-SDZ and must be set for the required operating
conditions before using the evaluation board. Table 2 describes
the positions of the links that control the evaluation board via
the SDP-B controller board using a PC and external power
supplies. The positions listed in Table 2 through Table 4 match
the evaluation board imprints, see Figure 10.

DAUGHTER BOARD LINK OPTIONS
The E VA L -AD5344DBZ daughter board has two link options.
The links control the settings of the output voltage channel. The
functions of these link options are described in detail in Table 3.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE QUICK START PROCEDURES
INSTALLING THE EVAL-AD5344DBZ EVALUATION
SOFTWARE
The E VA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation software is compatible with
Windows® Vista (64-bit/32-bit) and Windows 7 (64-bit/32-bit).
Install the software before connecting the SDP-B controller
board to the USB port of the PC to ensure the PC recognizes
the SDP-B controller board when it connects to the PC.
To install the E VA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation software, take the
following steps:
1. Start the Windows operating system.
2. Download the installation software from the E VA L -
AD5344DBZ evaluation board page.
3. Run the setup.exe file from the installer file if it does not
open automatically.
4. After the installation is complete, power up the evaluation
board as described in the Power Supplies section.
5. Connect the E VA L -AD5344DBZ to the SDP-B controller
board and the SDP-B controller board to the PC using the
USB cable included in the evaluation kit.
6. When the software detects the EVA L -AD5344DBZ,
proceed through any dialog boxes that appear to finalize
the installation.
RUNNING THE SOFTWARE
To run the E VA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation software, proceed
with the following steps:
1. Connect the E VA L -AD5344DBZ to the SDP-B controller
board and connect the USB cable from the SDP-B
controller board to the PC.
2. Power up the evaluation board as described in the Power
Supplies section.
3. Click Start > All Programs > Analog Devices > AD5344
Evaluation Software to locate the evaluation board.
If the SDP-B controller board does not connect to the USB port
when the software launches, a connectivity error displays (see
Figure 2).
Connect the SDP-B controller board to the USB port of the PC
and wait a few seconds. Once the SDP-B controller board and
the E VA L -AD5344DBZ daughter board are detected, the
display updates (see Figure 3).
Figure 2. Connectivity Error
14520-003
Figure 3. Hardware Select
Alternatively, the EVA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation software can be
used without an evaluation board. The E VA L-AD5344DBZ
evaluation software runs in simulation mode displaying
expected outputs based on the input data. The main window of
the E VA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation software then opens, shown
in Figure 4.

Figure 4. AD5344 Evaluation Board Software Main Window
SOFTWARE OPERATION
The E VA L -AD5344DBZ evaluation software allows the user to
program values to the input and DAC registers of each DAC
individually (see Figure 4). Ensure the LK1 position and LK2
position on the daughter board match the DAC selected on the
DAC Selection pane on the GUI.
Write to DAC Register
Select the Write to DAC Register button to load the code of the
input data control to the DAC register of the DAC. Ensure LK1
and LK2 are set up correctly.
LDAC Control
Select the Pulse LDAC button to bring the LDAC pin low and
then high, copying the data from the input registers to the DAC
registers, and updating the outputs accordingly.
Alternatively, set the LDAC pin high or low by clicking the blue
progressive disclosure button on the INTERFACE LOGIC
block. A window opens that allows the user to click the
appropriate LDAC setting, shown in Figure 4.
14520-005
Figure 5. LDAC Control
Power-Down Control
All of the DACs can be powered down simultaneously. Click on the
blue progressive disclosure buttons to access the POWER-DOWN
LOGIC block. When the power-down setting for the DAC is
selected, click the OK button to write the appropriate values to the
AD5344.
