3.9 Launch the DAC39RF10EVM GUI and Program the DAC EVM

The DAC39RF10EVM configuration GUI is installed separately from the HSDC Pro installation and is a stand-alone GUI.

Note: The max clock rate supported by DAC39RF10EVM is 10240 MHz
GUID-20230416-SS0I-MBV1-QPTS-N32RQKBQ87SM-low.svgFigure 3-3 Configuration of DAC39RF10EVM GUI

Figure 3-3 and Figure 3-4 show the GUI opened to the JMODE tab and NCO tab respectively. Tabs at the left of the panel organize the configuration into device and EVM features with user-friendly controls and a low-level tab for directly configuring the registers. The EVM has three configurable devices, namely the DAC39RF10, LMX1204 and LMK04828. The register map for each device is provided in the device data sheet (DAC39RF10, LMK04828B, and LMX1204, respectively).

  1. Lauch the DAC39RF10EVM GUI.
  2. Select the LMX->DACCLK | LMX/LMK->FPGA as the clock source.
  3. Enter Clk Freq 10240 MHz.
  4. Select JMODE0 for JMODE option.
  5. Select 64b66b for Encoding option.
  6. The other option can be left to default settings.
  7. Click Program Devices (Note: This action overwrites any previous device register settings.)
