The SMT8037 is a demonstration software for the evaluation of the SMT365 and
SMT364 modules. It can be used for prototyping IF, base-band radar systems,
spectrum analysis, digital radio receiver, multi-channel receivers or cellular base
stations. This document is an installation guide for the SMT8037 demonstration
system.
The SMT8037 application gets the DSP on the SMT365 to configure the on-board
low-jitter clock synthesizers (up to 105 MHz) and the ADCs via ComPort. The DSP
then grabs data from both channels and stores them into a file, which can be read by
a Matlab application for data displaying and FFT processing. The SMT364
implements ComPort 4 to receive control word, which allows using the SMT310Q
ComPort switches and avoid cables at the back of the carrier board.
