1.1 Introduction

This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the ADS131M08MET evaluation module (EVM). The ADS131M08MET-EVM is an evaluation platform for the ADS131M08 along with the MSPM0G1506 microcontroller and the MSPM0 metrology software. The EVM eases the evaluation of the ADS131M08 and MSPM0G1506 with hardware, software, and computer connectivity through the universal serial bus (USB) interface. This user's guide includes complete circuit descriptions, schematic diagrams, and a bill of materials (BOM). Throughout this document, the terms evaluation module and EVM are synonymous with the ADS131M08MET-EVM.
