Introduction

This user’s guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the SmartDAC-DIY evaluation module (EVM) and highlights all of the features available on the board.

The board features a pair of headers which are pin compatible with all of the currently available Smart DAC EVMs. Upon insertion, align the top left pin of a Smart DAC EVM with a pin labeled EVM PIN 1 of header H1.

The board contains multiple access points for standard lab bench equipment for a convenient performance evaluation and prototype integration of a smart DAC. The board also features a protoboard space and application specific subsections.

The DIY EVM has sample schematic diagrams printed on the board to simplify the user experience.
