Dear, Support Team.

My customer is going to evaluate ADS 8881 EVM.
The customer wants to simultaneously measure voltage and current using two ADS8881 EVM.
Is it possible to start conversion of two ADS 8881 EVM at the same time?
Can I export the data to Excel or CSV data?

Best Regards,
Hiroaki Yuyama

Hi Yuyama-san,

Unfortunately there is no way to synchronize two different ADS8881EVM-PDK's though the existing evaluation software.

Hi,Tom-san.
Thank you for your reply.

I understand the fact that conversion can not start at the same time with software control.
Is it possible to start conversion from jumper pin JP3 with hardware control?

Also, Can I export the data to Excel or CSV data?

Best Regards,
Hiroaki Yuyama

Hi Hiroaki,

Yes, you can export data from ADCPro to Excel. Getting two EVM's to be synchronized though is still going to be an issue. At a minimum, you'd need to be running them on two different PC's. There would be no way to synchronize the clocks.
