GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADA4570 is an anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor
with integrated signal conditioning amplifiers and analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) drivers. The ADA4570 produces two differential
analog output pairs that indicate the angular position of the sur-
rounding magnetic field.
The EVAL-ADA4570SDZ evaluation board features the ADA4570 in
an end of shaft magnet configuration.
The evaluation kit is composed of the EVAL-ADA4570SDZ and
a magnetic stimulus on a printed circuit board (PCB) mount. To in-
terface to a computer, the EVAL-SDP-CS1Z (SDP-S) or the EVAL-
SDP-CB1Z (SDP-B) is required which must be ordered separately.
An illustration of the ADA4570 evaluation system consisting of
the PC graphic user interface (GUI), the SDP, and the EVAL-
ADA4570SDZ is shown in Figure 1. In this user guide, SDP refers
to either the SDP-S or the SDP-B interface card.
The EVAL-ADA4570SDZ allows a detailed evaluation of the
ADA4570 where the software GUI demonstrates angular measure-
ment and performs system level calibration.
The EVAL-ADA4570SDZ also provides access via a standard
header for power and digital signals to the on-board ADC interface
(AD7266), which allows evaluation of the ADA4570 with a user
preferred microcontroller platform and to start the system software
development. Users can also access the analog output signals
of the ADA4570 to a user preferred ADC with a microcontroller
platform.
The PCB is designed so that the sensor board can be detached
from the SDP interface to provide a smaller form factor. Power
supplies can be sourced from either the USB port via the SDP card
or an external bench supply.
For full details, see the ADA4570 data sheet, which must be
used in conjunction with this user guide when using the EVAL-
ADA4570SDZ.

Using an External Digital Interface
The EVAL-ADA4570SDZ facilitates a configuration option where
the user can connect an external microcontroller or field program-
mable gate array (FPGA) to the on-board AD7266 ADC (see
Figure 4).
Figure 4. Typical Connection Diagram for Using the Digital Interface
Connector P2, shown in Figure 4, provides the required connectivity
to power the AD7266 ADC and the ADA4570 as well as the
interface to the AD7266 ADC. This configuration allows users to
monitor the digitized output of the ADA4570 with a user preferred
embedded hardware platform. The pinout of Connector P2 is listed
in Table 2. The SDP controller board supports a maximum SPI
speed of 10 MHz, which limits the sampling rate of the AD7266
ADC to 625 kSPS. This configuration can be used to facilitate data
acquisition with a faster sampling rate up to 2 MSPS.

STARTING THE EVALUATION GUI
To use the EVAL-ADA4570SDZ with the SDP controller board, start
by connecting the two boards together with the CON A connector of
the SDP.
When launching the GUI, the SDP controller board must be
recognized by the GUI before proceeding. The GUI automatically
searches for the SDP controller board and tries to read the EE-
PROM identification of the EVAL-ADA4570SDZ and to ensure that
the correct program is in use.
If the SDP controller board is not connected, or if the drivers are not
installed correctly, a Hardware Select window appears (see
Figure 16). If this occurs, ensure that the drivers are installed
correctly and that the PC recognizes the SDP controller board. Figure 16. Hardware Select Window
The Hardware Select window also appears when the EVAL-
ADA4570SDZ is not recognized or is not connected to the SDP
controller board. When the EVAL-ADA4570SDZ is detected, the
board appears preselected in the Hardware Select window. Click
Select to continue.

VSIN and VCOS Raw Outputs
The Captured Data graph shows measurement result in volts of
the selected outputs from the ADA4570 magnetic angle sensor (see
Figure 18).
Figure 18. Captured Data Graph
The red and blue waveforms in Figure 18 indicate the differential
signals of the selected VSIN channel and VCOS channel outputs
as the magnet rotates over the ADA4570. The VSIN and VCOS
differential signals output data is used to calculate the angle and
radius.
In the application, it is important that these two channels are
simultaneously sampled to avoid the introduction of errors resulting
in a phase delay between the sampling of the individual channels.
GUI Settings and Capture Modes
The GUI allows the user to change some settings that are accessed
via the system icon, Configure (see Figure 19).
Figure 19. Configure Icon
When the Configure icon is activated, the GUI opens a window
that allows the user to modify the captured data display settings,
data accusation and update rate settings, and the method the data
is captured. Figure 20 shows the GUI default settings.
Figure 20. Configure Window
The GUI provides two capture modes, Continuous and Burst.
When the EVAL-ADA4570SDZ operates in continuous capture
mode, the GUI constantly samples the VSIN channel and VCOS
channel. The number of samples displayed is set with the Chart
Length field and, by default, is set to 500 samples. The GUI
allows the user to set delays between sample reads via the Time
Between Bursts (s) field. The default delay is set to 10 ms.
After every sample read by the GUI, the Captured Data graph, the
angle, the radius, and the temperature values are updated.
When the EVAL-ADA4570SDZ operates in burst read mode, the
GUI samples a burst of samples, defined in the Samples to
Capture field, without updating the display. After the burst read has
finished, the GUI updates the display values with the collected data.
By default, the sampling frequency is set to 100,000 SPS.
