Evaluating the AD9833 Low Power 12.65 mW, 2.3 V to 5.5 V, Programmable
Waveform Generator
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Full featured evaluation board for the AD9833 evaluation
board
Graphical user interface software for board control and data
analysis
Connector to EVAL-SDP-CB1Z system demonstration
platform (SDP) board
Various power supply and reference link options
The AD9833 is a 25 MHz low power DDS device capable of
producing high performance sine and triangular outputs. It
also has an on-board comparator that allows a square wave to
be produced for clock generation. Consuming only 13 mW of
power at 3 V makes the AD9833 an ideal candidate for powersensitive applications.
The EVAL-AD9833SDZ board is used in conjunction with an
EVAL-SDP-CB1Z SDP board available from Analog Devices, Inc.
The USB-to-SPI communication to the AD9837 is completed
using this Blackfin®-based development board.
APPLICATIONS
Biomedical sensors
Bioelectrical impedance analysis
Electrochemical analysis
Impedance spectroscopy
Complex impedance measurement
Nondestructive testing
A high performance, on-board 25 MHz trimmed general
oscillator is available to use as the master clock for the AD9837
system. Various links and SMB connectors are also available on
the EVAL-AD9833SDZ board to maximize usability.
Complete specifications for the AD9833 are provided in the
AD9833 data sheet, available from Analog Devices, and should
be consulted in conjunction with this user guide when using the
evaluation board.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The EVAL-AD9833SDZ evaluation kit includes the software and
drivers on CD. The software is compatible with Windows® XP,
Windows Vista, and Windows 7.
To install the software, follow these steps:
2.
3.
4.
Install the software before connecting the SDP board to the
USB port of the PC.
Start the Windows operating system and insert the
EVAL-AD9833SDZ evaluation kit CD.
Download the AD9833SDZ LabVIEW® software. The correct
driver, SDPDriversNET, for the SDP board should download
automatically after LabVIEW is downloaded, supporting

both 32- and 64-bit systems. However, if the drivers do not
download automatically, the driver executable file can also
be found in the Program Files/Analog Devices folder.
Follow the on-screen prompts to install the SDPDriverNet
Version 1.3.6.0.
After installation of the software and drivers is complete, plug
the EVAL-AD9833SDZ into the SDP board and the SDP
board into the PC using the USB cable included in the box.
When the software detects the evaluation board, proceed
through any dialog boxes that appear to finalize the
installation (Found New Hardware Wizard/Install the
Software Automatically and so on).

If the SDP board is not connected to the USB port when
the software is launched, a connectivity error displays (see
Figure 3). Simply connect the evaluation board to the USB
port of the PC, wait a few seconds, click Rescan, and follow
the instructions.
Ensure that all links are in their correct locations (see Table 1).
The main window of the AD9833DBZ evaluation software
then opens, as shown in Figure 4.

SETTING UP THE DIGITAL INTERFACE
The first software step in setting up the AD9833 to make some
measurements is to set the DIGITAL INTERFACE value. The
EVAL-SDP-CB1Z has two connectors plugs: connectorA and
connectorB. Select the connector you want to use with the
AD9837 evaluation board from the drop-down box.
09812-005
The SPI Frame Frequency (/SYNC) box and SCLK Frequency
box can also be set in this window. If the SPI interface speed has
not been decided, leave the default values shown in Figure 5.

FSK AND PSK FUNCTIONALITY
Having selected the digital interface specifics, next use the
EXTERNAL MCLK box to choose which frequency to use. The
boards are supplied with a 25 MHz general oscillator. If a different
clock source is required, the CLK1 SMB connector can be used
to supply a different MCLK value.
In software mode, the AD9833 can be set up for FSK or PSK
functionality by simply entering the bit rate in milliseconds and
selecting the push-button option (see Figure 8).
Two options for the general oscillator include the AEL3013
oscillators from AEL Crystals and the SG-310SCN oscillators
from Epson Electronics.

WAVEFORM OPTIONS
09812-006
The output waveform can be selected as a sinusoidal waveform
or a ramp waveform. The internal comparator in the AD9833
can be disabled or enabled (see Figure 9). The MSB or the
MSB/2 of the phase accumulator can be selected as the output
on the SIGN BIT OUT pin.
Figure 6. EXTERNAL MCLK Input
The desired output frequency and output phase can be loaded
using the inputs shown in Figure 7. Either the FREQ 0 register or
the FREQ 1 register can be loaded with frequency data. The
frequency data is loaded in megahertz, and the equivalent hex code
is shown to the right once data is entered; click Enter to load
data. Once data is loaded, the output appears on the IOUT1 and
IOUT2 pins. Similarly, either the PHASE 0 register or PHASE 1
register can be selected, and the phase data is loaded in degrees.
The analog output frequency from the AD9833 is defined by

Power-Down Options
The AD9833 has various power-down options selected through
the control register. The part can disable the MCLK or disable
the DAC if just the MSB output is used on the SIGN BIT OUT
pin, or it can power down both sections for a lower power sleep
mode (see Figure 10).

RESET AND SWEEP
EXAMPLE OF OPERATION
The reset software command is set using the button shown in
Figure 11. To set up a DDS sweep, click Sweep.
An example of configuring the AD9833 to output 10 kHz follows:

The sweep function allows users to load a start frequency, stop
frequency, increment size, number of loops, and delay between
each frequency increment. These commands are then loaded to
the part automatically from the EVAL-SDP-CB1Z board.

Plug the EVAL-SDP-CB1Z board into the EVALAD9833SDZ board and connect to the USB port.
Start up the software located at Start/All Programs/
Analog Devices/AD9833/AD9833 Eval Board. You should
see the SDP board communicating with the PC.
Select connectorA or connectorB; this must match what
the AD9837 test chip is connected to.
Define MCLK; the default is an on-board 25 MHz
oscillator.
Ensure that all links are in the correct locations (see Table 1).
Select the FREQ 1 register.
Load a 10 kHz excitation frequency and click Enter.
The output should appear on the IOUT and IOUTB outputs on
the evaluation board.
