7 / 55 page ![]() Maxim Integrated │ 7 www.maximintegrated.com Evaluates: MAX5868 MAX5868 Evaluation Kit Install the MAX5868EVKIT Software The MAX5868EVKIT Software Controller application can be obtained from the www.maximintegrated.com website. Select the DESIGN→DESIGN TOOLS menu option in the upper-left corner of the page. A new page will appear with several additional links. Under the Applications Software section, select the EV Kit Software option. The next page will contain a listing of all EVKIT software available for download. The page pro- vides a simple filter to ease the users search. Select the Digital-to-Analog Converters option if desired, then find and download the MAX5868 RF DAC EV Kit Software. It is strongly suggested to use the default installation path ( c:\MaximIntegrated\MAX5868EVKIT). If an alternate path is desired, it must NOT contain any spaces or the Xilinx LabTools will not be accessed properly. This step should take less than 10 minutes. Setup and Connect the MAX5868EVKIT Hardware 1) Install the two 1” stand-offs included with the MAX5868 EV kit. Stand-offs should be installed on the RF DAC output side of the board. 2) Verify all jumpers on the MAX5868 EV kit board are in the default position; refer to Table 1. 3) Connect the MAX5868 EV kit board to the VC707 board using the FMC connector shown in Figure 1. 4) Connect the 3.3V/3A supply to the MAX5868 EV kit and enable the supply’s output. Verify that the four green LED board supply indicators are lit. 5) Turn on the VC707 by sliding switch SW12 to the ON position. Verify ALL the LEDs on the VC707 are momentarily lit; the GPIO LEDs should then begin sequencing. 6) Make the USB connections, see Figure 1 for locations a. Connect the USB A–micro B cable (JTAG) from Xilinx VC707 Eval board to the PC. b. Connect the USB A–mini B cable (Ctrl/Bulk) from Xilinx VC707 Eval board to the PC. Please ensure that all the required third-party software and drivers are installed before proceeding to the next section. Configure the MAX5868EVKIT Graphical User Interface A few items need to be configured during the first execution of the GUI software. 1) Start the MAX5868 EV kit software. Double-click on the desktop icon or the MAX5868EVKIT softwareController.exe executable located in the C:\MaximIntegrated\MAX5868EVKIT folder. A splash screen will be displayed while the USB connections are established (Figure 2) followed by the main application window. Figure 2. Splash Screen *Default jumper setting. Table 1.
