GETTING STARTED
MCP3551 PICtail™ DEMO BOARD DESCRIPTION
The MCP3551 PICtail™ Demo Board is a fully functional, assembled and tested board
for evaluation of the MCP3551 22-Bit Delta-Sigma ADC. The board is engineered to
provide a virtually noise-free analog signal to the MCP3551, so that the capabilities of
the device can be observed using a PC loaded with the DataView software.
The setup process is as follows:
1. Install the DataView software.
2. Since the board can be powered by USB power or with a 5V power supply,
3. After applying power, the “Power” LED (D1) will illuminate and either D4
4. The drivers will automatically install the first time the board is connected.
5. Run the DataView software.
