DAC80501: DAC80501

Part Number: DAC80501

Tool/software:

Dear Sirs,

we would like to use 3 DAC80502-01-EVM in a test system we are designing. In order to interface the DAC80502-01-EVM boards we would like to design a motherbard with sockets to interface directly SPI and voltage supply headers.

To have a better design we need the PCB documentation as Gerber files to extract the header position information. Is it possible to get them?

Regards

Pietro Centoletti

  • Hello Pietro,

    Please note that in accordance with TI's policies, you should not use the EVMs in test or finished systems:

    "EVMs are intended solely for product or software developers for use in a research and development setting to facilitate feasibility evaluation, experimentation, or scientific analysis of TI semiconductors products. EVMs have no direct function and are not finished products. EVMs shall not be directly or indirectly assembled as a part or subassembly in any finished product."

    I would recommend you fabricate your own boards if you want to use them in a scope outside of simply evaluation. If you wish to proceed in using the EVMs, though, I can provide the gerbers for you. Let me know what you would like to do.

    Thanks,
    Erin

  • Hi Erin,

    we are not implementing a finished product with these boards. The test system is only for our internal use and it will be used to test and characterize a system of ours. So, we are not infringing the TI policy and we do not want to sell a finished product in which the EVM board are inserted. So you now can evaluate if this is inside the terms of TI policy and decide if we can have access to the information I requested.

    Regards

    Pietro

  • Hi Pietro,

    This should be fine then. See the attached zip for the Gerber files. I'm the creator of the board so let me know if you have any troubles or need anything else.
