ADS8412EVM

Hi Tariq,

For the ADS8412, I know there is an app note (with code) on the wed that uses a CPLD to serialize the output and feed it to an FPGA.  Not sure if there is anything in the 'code snippet' store room to get you up and running with a TMS320C6713 though.  Will check into that and let you know ASAP.

Dear Tom,

Thanks for your quick reply.

I would really appreciate if there is any thing that let me start the work.

Dear Tom,

Thanks a lot for your kind help. Lets see how it goes.

One thing I would like to ask, why the program places BUFFER_SIZE values into two Buffer ? Moreover, is it efficient way to introduce some Filtering and FFT computation inside the last while loop ? In future, I am interested to apply filtering anf FFT algorithm over sampled values.

Thanks.

Sorry mistakenly opened the project and thought that its for ADS7881 :-)

However, it would be nice to know the answers.

TOM,

Thanks a lot for the project.

Is it diffucult to write code for this ADC myself ?

Is it not possible to develop my own code using DSP/BIOS for different ADC or DAC ?

Tariq,

Which version of CCS are you using?  There is a tool known as the 'Data Converter Support' tool within CCS v 3.x.  From the project manager, it's under the 'Tools' menu.  That tool helps you build the low level drivers for various ADCs/DACs.  It was that tool that built the drivers in the project I sent you.  You can find out more about the tool from this link:

Hi Tom,

I am using CCS v 3.3. Does that tool also make main.c file ?

I will look into the tool.

Thanks.

Hi Tariq,

Sorry my friend - the tool does not create your main.c, that you would need to do on your own.  The tool creates the header, object and function files you see included in main and added to the project under the source items.  The tool does not create the ddb file for you either, that is something you would also need to do on your own.
