The screw terminals along the bottom edge of the Interface Board give access to the common power bus.
Three-port terminals J1 and J2 provide analog power. Two-port terminals J6, J8, J9, and J11 provide the
digital voltages. Two jumpers, W2 and W3, located on the Interface Board give the user the option of
using DSK +5 V and +3.3 V for the digital power. Analog power must be supplied from an external source.

The signal conditioning sites provide a 20-pin analog I/O header and a 6-pin header for the analog power
supply connections.
The analog I/O connectors, J3 and J4, provide up to eight single-ended or four differential channels
to/from the data converter. External reference voltages can also be applied to the data converter through
the analog I/O connector. Because the reference requirements vary by converter type, no restrictions are
placed on the input voltage levels. Be sure to check the documentation for the EVM before applying any
input signals. Single- and dual-channel converters leave the unused pins open.

The 20-pin headers located beside JP1 and JP2 provide stability for the signal conditioning boards—no
signals are routed to or from these connectors. These connectors are labeled Analog 1 and Analog 2 in
