The SPIO-4 is one of several National Semiconductor digital controller and capture boards that are used by multiple evaluation systems. The objective of these software and hardware evaluation systems is to allow our customers to easily and accurately evaluate TI’s signal-path devices in a lab setting. At the time of the SPIO-4 release, two different evaluation system software applications and graphical user interfaces (GUIs) make use of this board: the WaveVision-5 and the Sensor AFE. The board ships with the current version of the WaveVision-5 software. In addition to the controller and capture board (in this case, the SPIO-4) and the evaluation GUI software (for example, WaveVision-5 or Sensor AFE), the third essential element of an evaluation system is the device or signalpath evaluation board that plugs into the controller board. This evaluation board is generically referred to as the DUT board. Each DUT board comes with a user’s guide that documents the specific features of the board. Each DUT board also comes with some software that the user must install before initial use. In the case of the WaveVision-5 GUI, this software is essentially a device-specific module that adds support for the future device evaluation boards. In the case of Sensor AFE device family, the evaluation board comes with a complete, custom Sensor AFE that is specifically paired with that device. The WaveVision-5 and Sensor AFE GUI software have respective user’s guide documents that describe how to interact with the respective GUI. This users guide describes only the SPIO-4 board. The user is expected to refer to this guide only if necessary. The DUT users guide and the GUI user’s guide are the primary documents that describe how to work with a TI signal-path evaluation board.
