Introduction
NOTE:
From this point on, unless otherwise noted, AFE44x0 refers to AFE4400- and AFE4490-
based demonstration kits.
The EVM is intended for evaluating AFE4400 and AFE4490 devices. The family of devices consist of a
low-noise receive channel, the LED transmit section, and diagnostics for sensor and LED fault detection.
The AFE44x0 has a highly configurable timing controller, enabling complete control of the device’s timing
characteristics. The device also has an integrated oscillator working off from two clock sources: either an
external crystal or the clock from an external host processor to ease clocking requirements and provide a
low-jitter clock to the AFE44x0. The device communicates to the external host processor using the serial
peripheral interface (SPI). The purpose of the EVM is to expedite evaluation and system development
activities related to AFE44x0 devices. The AFE4490SPO2EVM demonstration kit is shown in
low-noise receive channel, the LED transmit section, and diagnostics for sensor and LED fault detection.

The board can be assembled with either of these devices. Check the TI website for the
and
demonstration kits. The MSP430 firmware and PC
application are designed to automatically detect and configure to the installed part.
Throughout the document, the term demonstration kit is synonymous with AFE44x0SPO2EVM.
