Other Parts Discussed in Thread: PUREPATHCONSOLE, TAS5538, TAS5558, TAS5612, TAS5508, TAS5624A, TAS5548, TAS5624

Dear Sirs,

My Customer had tried to operate of  PurePathConsole on TAS5624AEVM.

But it did not work.

And He already tried to change device from TAS5538 to TAS5558. 

Can PurePathConsole operate on TAS5624AEVM?

Best Regards,

Y.Hasebe

    Hi Hasebe,

    I will look into this on my end.

    In the meantime it looks like someone else had connection issues:
    Can you have the customer look through this thread and report back?

    Hello Mike-san,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I was looking at this report, but had missed the statement below.

    ”After installing the PurePath Console GUI, add TAS5612 plug-in to the Target Selection and Open the TAS5612 GUI.”

     I will tell this to my customer.

    By the way , I was yesterday a similar question. (See below)

    Do you know what this question content may be considered to be solved in the above correspondence?

    【differences between TAS5XX and  TAS5548(Pure Path Console),TAS5508】

    My Customer asked to  me about differences between TAS5XX and  TAS5548(Pure Path Console).

    When the following conditions start the GUI not in check in each set after I2C Logging settings DRC_1 the data had different as follows.
    Please tell us about this difference.

          GUI                               EVM              ADRESS      RESISTER       THRESHOLD               DATA

    TAS5508                               -                     0x99           DRC_T1               -100dB                   08 4E 08 B2

    TAS55xx_GUI     TAS5624AEVM           0X99           DRC_T1               -100dB                   0A 55 55 55

    PPC                      TAS5548EVM              0x99           DRC_T1               -100dB                    08 4E 08 B1

     

    TAS5508                               -                     0x99           DRC_T1               -58.66dB                04 DF 21 AC

    TAS55xx_GUI     TAS5624AEVM           0X99           DRC_T1              -58.66dB                 06 E3 69 D0

    Also, please tell me TAS5548 of GUI (PPC) can be used in EVM of TAS5624A. (The latest of Userguide is equipped with TAS5558)

    ⇒I will tell my customer above same answer.

    TAS5624AEVM of GUI (TAS55XX), please tell me if you can use in EVM of TAS5548. (USB communication was OK)

    Hi Hasebe-san,

    You can use the TAS5624EVM (with the TAS5558) with the Tas5548GUI. Is your customer still having issues getting the EVM to work with the GUI?

    I have addressed your question in the other forum thread you have here: e2e.ti.com/.../418347

    Hello　Mike-san,

    I answered my customer as follows.

    After installing the PurePath Console GUI, add TAS5612 plug-in to the Target Selection and Open the TAS5612 GUI.

    But he tell me that does not connect EVM.(it does not indicate "Green".)
    Until now was using the TAS5624A + TAS55XXGUI. 
    After that, he could not be tried to connect to the configuration of the above.

    Does he need and advance to uninstall and PC configuration changes?


    Best Regards,
    Y.Hasebe

    HI Hasebe-san,

    You stated that the customer has tried using the "TAS56512 plug-in." As stated above, please have them use the TAS5548 plug in. Let me know if they are still having troubles using that plugin.

    Hello Mike-san,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I'll explain to you little more details.
    I heard the details of the history of evaluation from the customer. It is as follows.

    1.It evaluated using the TAS55XX_GUI the TAS5624EVM (TAS5538 + TAS5624).

    2. The exchange MODULATOR and P.STAGE for EVM has failed. (I had the wrong set of PBTL)

    At that time, because there is no TAS5538, exchange to TAS5558.

    3. Then check the operation in the PPC with a combination of TAS5558 + TAS5624.

    4. Because it does not work on PPC, and verify the operation of the in TAS55XX_GUI.

    5. In order to work with TAS55XX_GUI, now it is evaluated using the TAS55XX_GUI.

    Also I heard the confirmation of the following from the customer. The results were unable to connect. 
    You stated that the customer has tried using the "TAS56512 plug-in." As stated above, please have them use the TAS5548 plug in. Let me know if they are still having troubles using that plugin.

    Do you know something from the above-mentioned contents?

    Hi Hasebe-san,

    I want to update you on what I am doing on my end. We do not have that specific EVM (with the TAS5558 on it) in the lab. I have requested one and expect it to be delivered any day know. Once I get my hands on the appropriate EVM I can better test out your issue to help resolve it. My apologies for the delay.

    Regards,
    Mike Ulrich

    Hi Hasebe-san,

    I have tested the EVM and have no issues connecting to the TAS5548/58 GUI of PPC1.16. Is your customer using the latest revision of the EVM? (See picture below)


    If not, then which EVM are they using?

    If they are using the EVM pictured above I would advise them to re-install PPC1.16 to ensure they have the latest version

    Hello Mike-san,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I'll confirm the EVM that they are using.

    Then, I already has confirmed they are using GUI of PPC  Version1.16 but I was still the confirmation of the Rev..

     I'll confirm it and suggest to re-install the latest version.

    Hello Mike-san,

    My customer said to me that the noise has occured byTAS5624AEVM.
    Please refer to the attached sheet.

    I know that have to change output filter  AD mode and BD mode.

    I want to know how many noise level by TAS5624A.

    Then, could you please measure noise level of your EVM?

    Best Regards,
    Y.Hasebe

    Hi Hasebe-san,

    My EVM's noise level sits around 160uV for both PBTL and BTL mode. My advise would be to make sure that the device is in the right mode. You can find all the details on the mode configurations within the "MODE SELECTION PINS" section of the datasheet.

    Were you able to get their EVM to connect to PPC? If not, can you have them test to make sure the GUI is writing to the device properly? You can do this by writing to a few registers and reading back the values.


    Regards,
    Mike Ulrich

    Hello Mike-san,

    Thank you for your reply and advise.

    I will tell them your answer and advise.

    I met my customer and was also confirmed symptom of the problem.
    They used TAS5624AEVM（REV.A)+TAS5558　and TAS55xx_GUI.
    Because it can not connect using the PPC.
    It was like a combination of the above has to do operate in their PC.
    However it did not work on my PC.
    Then I confirmed that PPC connection problem, I think USB connection (recognition of Driver) problem.

    Do you know the deal to the above-mentioned case in ppc connection?

    By the way customer is requesting the EVM of REV.B. 
    But EVM that currently they have had those with TAS5538. 
    Moreover, it is the beginning of this year that it was obtained.
    Please tell me how to obtain it because I want to get the latest EVM.


    Best Regards,
    Y.Hasebe

    Hi Hasebe-san,

    I do not think the Revision of the EVM is the issue as I am using RevA (seen in my earlier picture). Are you able to send me a picture of their test setup? And let me know what voltage levels they are using to power each section of the EVM?

    Did you verify that the TAS55xx_GUI was actually writing to the device? I do not think the device is connecting like you think as my device says it is connected to that GUI but I cannot write to the registers with that GUI. 

    Have you tried alternate USB cables?

    Regards,
    Mike Ulrich

    Hello Mike-san,

    Thank you for your reply.
    I understand.

    By the way, I have a question.

    You told me that as follows.

    ”My EVM's noise level sits around 160uV for both PBTL and BTL mode.”

    Is either of the conditions of this measurement AD mode and BD mode?

    Best　Regards,
    Y.Hasebe

    Hi Hasebe-san,

    The device is in AD mode. Below a plot of noise voltage vs supply voltage.


    Also, if the customer's EVM still is not working with PPC I can take a look at it here if you can ship it back to me. Let me know if that is a route you would like to take. (I still would like to see a picture of their setup to confirm everything is hooked up properly and the EVM they are using is correct)

    Hello Mike-san,

    Thank you for your reply.
    I found a cause that customer's EVM cannot be connected by PPC.
    The cause was to USBDriver and the firmware has not been changed.
    I heard USBDriver and Firmware how to change from Maruyama-san was contact the customer.
    As a result it has been successfully connected.

    TAS55xx_EVM and PPC of USBDriver and Firmware is different it seems a problem occurs.

    By the way, I will answer them noise data of AD mode.

    Best Regards,
    Y.Hasebe
