    Hi Owen,

    Yes, the DS320PR1601RSCEVM evaluation module has an onboard AT24C02D EEPROM flashed with the 'Default' EEPROM image (Default EQ, 0dB DC Gain).

    Custom EEPROM images can be created and flashed to the onboard EEPROM using the DS320PR1601 SigCon Architect GUI profile, if desired. This is available on the secure resources folder only, so please let me know if you need access to this GUI.

    Hi David,

    Appreciate your support so far with this! We're trying to communicate with the eval board using Aardvark, but unable to find the required profile. Can you help us locate the profile for the DS320PR1601?

    Thanks so much,
    Owen

    Hi Owen,

    No problem. I've just granted you access to this GUI profile through your TI email, you should receive instructions on how to access this folder in the next 30 minutes or so.

    This folder contains the SigCon Architect GUI installer and the DS320PR1601 GUI profile installer. Please install the SigCon Architect GUI installer first, then the DS320PR1601 GUI profile installer.

    The GUI profile provides an option to use Aardvark in the "Interface" drop-down for the device. Additionally, please ensure to set the shunt on JMP17 to position 2-3 to select the Aardvark controller option.

    Let me know if you have any issues.

    Best,
    David
