ADS8881EVM-PDK Overview
The ADS8881EVM is an evaluation module built to the TI Modular EVM system specifications. The EVM
by itself has no microprocessor and cannot run software. Thus, it is available as part of the ADS8881EVM-
PDK kit that combines the ADS8881EVM as a daughter board with the DSP-based MMB0 motherboard
using ADCPro™ software as graphical user interface (GUI).

ADCPro software collects, records, and analyzes data from ADC evaluation boards. It runs different plug-
in programs to easily expand testing and data collection capabilities. In combination with the
ADS8881EVM plug-in program, it offers a comprehensive evaluation environment for the ADS8881. For
