Dear Tier.

My customer bought ADS8519EVM via Digi-key.

She want to control ADS8519EVM using SPI control.

Is there any firmware or GUI tool to refer in her project? And what is the interface board to connect PC?

Hello Avraka,

Not all evaluation modules are available as a kit with motherboard and software. Typically, the evaluation modules with motherboard and computer hardware have the “-PDK” termination.

I checked the ADS8519 product folder, and there isn’t a kit version available for it. This means there is not GUI/PC software for the ADS8519.

To start writing firmware, the 5-6K Interface Evaluation Module (http://www.ti.com/tool/5-6kinterface) can be coupled with a DSP or micro-controller development kit.

For PC GUI connectivity, it is possible to use a USB/SPI adapter to communicate with the ADC. These are some options:
