Powering the ADS1299EEG-PDK board without an mbb0

Part Number: ADS1299EEG-PDK

Hi TI,

I am doing a project where I need to connect the ADS1299EEG-PDK card and transmit the collected data to a raspberry.
Which ports do I need to power and which ports do I collect the data?

Through the schematic, I discovered that the feed would be via j4 port and communication by j3, however I was afraid to burning board.
Could you please confirm if these links would work and inform me how I collect the ADS data?
Thank you!
  • Hi joao,

    Welcome to our e2e Forum! J4 is correct, however you don't necessarily need the 1.8V. For J3 however, pin 1 goes to the chip select input of the ADS1298, so that should go to a GPIO on your controller, not the clock. You don't need a connection on pin 2 since JP23 will allow you to select GND or DVDD to configure CLKSEL. Pin 8 should also go to a GPIO so that you can reset the ADS1298 as needed. Pin 15 is the DRDY signal, you'll want to tie this to an interruptable input on your controller.

    Hi tom,

    Thanks a lot for the help!

    Following your suggestion, would this be the correct scheme?

    Do these setting also apply to ADS1299?

    Regards,

  • Looks good!  And yes, this would also apply to the ADS1299EVM.

  • Hi Tom,

    thank you for the informations

    I energized ads1299 and got the results:

    Test Point Voltage:
    TP7 + 5.0V
    TP9 +0
    TP10 + 3.3 V
    TP5 + 5.0V
    TP13 + 2.5V
    TP6 -0
    TP8 GND

    TP9 and TP6 are not equal to the values ​​in the manual, is this expected?

  • Hi Joao,

    If you look at Figure 62 in the ADS1299EEGFE-PDK users guide, you should see an explanation for the lack of 1.8V on TP9.  Since you have 5.0V on TP7, you have to track back a little to figure out why you do not have -2.5V on TP6.  Please refer to Figure 60 in the ADS1299EEGFE-PDK users guide and see what voltage is on TP4.  TP4 is fed by a charge pump (U6) that takes the same 5V on TP7 and inverts it.  That -5V then feeds a -2.5V regulator (U8) which should be the voltage found on TP6.

  • Hi Tom,

    Thanks for the attention and help, I will continue to carry out tests.
