LMX2820: TICS PRO2

Part Number: LMX2820
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMX2831

I have lmx2831 eval board. I try to test it. Users guide says that I need to choose LMX2830-TC(V0.0.2) from TICS Pro2  but it just has v0.0.1. I am wondering if I can walk through that version? Or How can I reach the LMX2830-TC(V0.0.2)?

You can see the User's guide of LMX2831 EVM

  • First I'd like to apologize, because I am responsible for the current mess that is LMX2830-TC distribution.

    Please do the following:

    1. From the secure resource page for LMX2830-TC, download v0.0.1 (an executable installer) and install TICS Pro 2. (I think you've already done this.)
    2. From the secure resource page for LMX2830-TC, download v0.0.2 (a zip file).
    3. Within TICS Pro 2 that you just installed, under profiles, import the zip file with v0.0.2.
      1. If this causes an error, ignore it; the error is inconsequential and I have fixed it in a pending release but this release has been delayed for several months for internal reasons
    4. Now v0.0.2 of LMX2830-TC should be visible within the profile selection menu in TICS Pro 2.

    If this is still giving you trouble, you can unzip the contents of the v0.0.2 download to anywhere within C:\ProgramData\Texas Instruments\TICS Pro 2\Configurations\Profiles, and now the profile should be available on the next startup of TICS Pro 2.

  • I have only .zip file that name 0.0.7 and when I import it. I saw v0.0.7. Can you support the 0.0.2 zip file?

  • Then use 0.0.7 instead of 0.0.2. The User's Guide was written before 0.0.7, and 0.0.7 contains numerous bugfixes that should be used. The instructions should still be equivalent.
