    I would like to be able to write my own software to interface to a EVAL-AD5370 DAC board. Does anyone know if Analog Devices has a published software document that describes how to interface to their (many) USB/EVAL devices? I know that they use the CYUSB family of USB products from CYPRESS, but I can't divine a way to get from the USB port to the output pins and make it to the SPI interface. This could really qualify as more of a general question, as Analog Devices produces has many EVAL boards that have a USB interface. One of the tougher parts about trying to do this on my own is the fact that a HEX file is downloaded to the CYPRESS part right as the AD EVAL software starts. Who knows how that changes the USB Interface? The current EVAL app look like a Visual Studio app and uses ADI_CYUSB_USB4.dll. Any insight welcome - especially from an AD Software type!
    
 
    (WINDOWS 8, Visual Studio V6, V10 or V11 C++ or C# / .NET)
    
 
    Thanks!

        Hi KenK 
        
 
        Thanks for the response!  If you could send the software, that would be great, that will give me something to do while I wait for an SDP module. Sometimes no matter how hard you look, it's always good to ask a question. I didn't know AD was producing an SDP line ( i had actually searched, but didn't know what I was looking for), and I am glad to know it! The other neat thing was the "More Like This" side bar produced answers I didn't find on my own, although again, I had searched. This article may be of some use to me or others: https://ez.analog.com/message/40763#40763 
        
 
        Since my dual goal was to do/learn a usb  interface and I needed a DAC with a lot of channels, your 40 channel EVAL Board seemed a logical choice. I bought what digikey had. I knew from previous experience with an AD DDS eval board that it wasn't going to be easy (I failed with the usb and DDS that time but didn't have the time I have now).
        
 
        Thanks again so much!
