A Time Domain Analysis is initiated by connecting
a signal source to the evaluation board and acquir-
ing a user-selectable number of samples. The re-
sults of capturing a sine wave are shown in
Figure 3. A reconstruction of the data samples is
displayed, along with the sample count on the hor-
izontal axis and magnitude (A/D counts) on the
