Compiler/DP83640T-EVK: Analog Launchpad Driver for DP83640T-EVK

Part Number: DP83640T-EVK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: USB-2-MDIO,

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

I am an electrical engineering major. My team and I are trying to use this to implement the 1588 PTP for our capstone project. Can I develop on this board? Analog Launchpad does not  recognize the board. It says we don't have the correct driver and I can't seem to find the correct one.

    Hi Forrest,

    Thanks for your interest in our product! The Analog Launchpad software for this device requires Windows XP to operate. If you have access to the MDIO/MDC pins of the board, you may use the new softare, USB2MDIO tool found here: .

    Additionally, you may review this thread for more information. 

    Thank you,

    Nikhil

    Hi Nikhil,

    Are you saying that we can use this tool if we don't have access to a windows xp machine? In the USB-2-MDIO user guide there is a guide on how to configure the pins with jumper wires for another board but not ours. Is there a procedure for the DP83640T-EVK?

    Hi Forrest,

    You will need to create a windows XP emulator or virtual machine to use analog launchpad. The older software is not compatible with newer windows operating services. USB-2-MDIO is actually only used for reading/writing registers and is not a tool that will create timestamps for data communication. 

    Thank you,
