AD9959 Evaluation Board Connection Issue - Flash Programmer vs. Evaluation Software

Category: Software
Product Number: AD9959/PCBZ, AD9959
Software Version: AD9958/AD9959 Evaluation Software (Rev. 2.0.0), Evaluation Board USB Flash Programmer

Hello ADI Community, I'm experiencing connectivity issues with my AD9959 Evaluation Board (EVAL-AD9959) and would appreciate your guidance.

Problem Description: The board is successfully recognized by the ADI Flash Programmer software via USB. However, the AD9959 Evaluation Software ails to detect the board

Question: What additional configuration steps are required to enable communication between the evaluation software and hardware? Are there specific driver dependencies or initialization sequences needed beyond basic Flash Programmer recognition? Thank you for your expertise.

  • Hi  ,

    Did you perform to reprogram the EEProm and was it written successfully? We have to make a successful reprogram before the evaluation software will be able to detect it. 
    This guide might be able to help you. 

    Also attached a more detailed guide.

    Just let me know if you're still encountering the issue.
