Calibrate the ADC Device on the EVM

Figure 3-3 shows the GUI open to the Control tab.

GUID-1004F304-95C7-45EA-A6AF-6C96C3DCFA2F-low.pngFigure 3-3 Configuration GUI: Control Tab
  1. With the EVM GUI open on the PC, navigate to the Control tab.
  2. To calibrate the ADC, click the Cal Triggered/Running button once, and then click the button again. This action stops and starts the calibration engine.
    Note:

    The Cal Triggered/Running button executes a calibration sequence that is required for full performance. This calibration is performed automatically during the previous step shown in Section 3.9, but must be performed again any time the sampling rate changes, after significant temperature change of the ADC, or after exiting the power-down mode. See the ADC12DL3200 device data sheet for details regarding the necessary calibration sequence.

  3. On the EVM tab, using the Sampling and Calbration Mode drop-down menu, select Foreground, Background, or Low Power Background calibration mode.
