CDCE62005 setting issue on DAC3482EVM

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CDCE62005

Hi,

I'm testing DAC3482EVM with TSW1400.

It is working fine with external clock input, but it is looked like the output clock was not correct frequency when I tried to use on-board CDCE620005 clock generator.

The screen capture in below shows the test result. Blue colored trace is when external clock used which is working well.

Yellow one is when CDCE62005 VCO is used. In case of yellow trace, center frequency is shifted about 1.25MHz to left and bandwidth of the trace is narrow comparing with normal case.

The register I used is as following.

I assumed that 19.2MHz TCXO output is fed to Secondary reference input, and expected Fout from Synthesize of CDCE62005 was 614.4MHz.

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

  • Hi Y.K.Choi,

    I will replicate the same setup with the register settings you have provided. When the CDCE62005 PLL is locked, led D1 should turn on. Can you confirm this on your EVM? Can you also confirm with an Oscilloscope, the sampling clock frequency at the DACCLKP/N pins?

    Thanks,

    Eben.

  • Hi Eben,

    Thank you very much for your prompt answer!

    LED D1 was not turned on when I applied the settings.

    It seems like Loop Filter setting was not proper.

    I don't have Oscilloscope so I couldn't check out the clock output.

  • Hi, Eben,

    It was so glad to meet you in IMS2015 exhibition last week in Pheonix.

    Now, I'm writing my own signal creation and editing application using Visual Studio C++ and VB.net.
    And, I want to embed control code for TSW1400EVM and DAC3482EVM which is running without opening of "High Speed Data Converter Pro GUI".

    I could find out DLL and header file such as "TSW1400Board_CLib.dll", "TSW1400_API.h" and so on in following file path:
    C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\High Speed Data Converter Pro\1400 Details\

    Also, there is document, "TSW1400_software_API.doc" to explain software API.

    However, there is no manual or example code that show me how to use the API.

    So, it would be very helpful if you provide me either VB.net or Visual Studio C++ exmaple code that show me how to use the API with which library files.

    Thank you very much for your support in advance!

  • Hi YK,

    Also share your email address so I can share some source files which may be relevant to you. It was nice to meet you at IMS.

    Thanks,
