Part Number: ADS1278EVM-PDK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS127L11EVM-PDK

I installed the ads1278EVM-pDK GUI, but for some reason its not detecting the PHI controller board.

I checked the device manager and it shows up as general Bulk device.

I mean it says the driver comes with the GUI .exe but its not recognizing.

Is there anyway to install it manually , or if there is any other solution.

Hello Soumyadip Chowd,

Take a look at this post:

We have updated the driver, but you can also install the ADS127L11EVM-PDK software as well.

Also, the USB cable should be plugged directly into your laptop/workstation, and not through an external hub. Also, the ADS1278EVM-PDK requires an external power supply.
