Digital Interface

As noted in Section 1, the EVM interfaces with the PHI that, in turn, communicates with the computer over USB. There are two devices on the EVM with which the PHI communicates: the ADS8900B ADC (over SPI or multiSPI™) and the EEPROM (over I2C). The EEPROM comes preprogrammed with the information required to configure and initialize the ADS8900BEVM-PDK platform. When the hardware is initialized, the EEPROM is no longer used.
