1.2 Kit Contents

The ADS131M08MET-EVM includes a USB-to-UART cable to connect to a PC for RS-232 communication. Three 2-terminal connectors are provided for connecting voltage inputs to the ADS131M08. There are four 3-terminal connectors provided to allow user-supplied current transformers or Rogowski coils. The EVM includes two 3-position SPST switches for adjusting the voltage and current gain from 1 to 128. There is also a switch provided to implement software integration for Rogowski coils through the metrology software running on the MSPM0G1506.
