ADS131A04EVM: API for accessing / command sending to ADS131A04EVM

Part Number: ADS131A04EVM

Hi, I have a question about ADS131A04EVM and Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software.

I could get the data from ADS131A04EVM through Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software.

However, is there any method to communicate with ADS131A04EVM without using Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software but still sending commands such as COLLECT 2048, ... etc?

Such as library on C language or so.

Thanks for the help from this community. Kuo-Hsuan.

    Hello Kuo-Hsuan,

    Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!

    Unfortunately using the Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software is the only supported method for communicating with the ADS131A04EVM. I believe it is possible for you to write your own C based software for communicating with the EVM, however I would not recommend this approach as it will be time intensive.

    Thanks for the help. However, I've found a "SocketClient" under the folder ./interface/, I've tried to listen to the port it uses, and my third party program could get the response from Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software. The program also has a "send" button with a text input section. I've tried to send commands from SocketClient with the same commands from Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software's console (like ID / REGMAP, ... etc) but there is no response.

    I wonder is it possible to send commands to ADS131A04EVM or Delta-Sigma ADC EvaluaTIon Software through SocketClient or any third party socket client?

    Thanks.

    Hello Kuo-Hsuan,

    Great find! Unfortunately as I mentioned in my previous post this is not a supported method of communicating with the EVM. It may be possible to send/receive commands through this avenue, however I am not familiar with this method.
