5 Using TICS Pro to Program the LMK0482x
This section will demonstrate how to use TICS Pro. Making measurements with the LMK04828B device
will serve as an example. For more information on using TICS Pro, refer to Appendix A. TICS Pro is
available for download at http://www.ti.com/tool/ticspro-sw.
Another option is to use CodeLoader4. The tool page for CodeLoader4 is located at
http://www.ti.com/tool/codeloader/.
Before proceeding, be sure to follow the instructions in Section 2 to ensure proper connections. To
program the LMK04826B, the procedure would be the same, but the LMK04826B would be selected as
the device.
5.1 Start TICS Pro Application
Click “Start” → “Programs” → “Texas Instruments” → “TICS Pro”.
The TICS Pro program is installed by default to the Texas Instruments application group.
5.2 Select Device
Click “Select Device” → “Clock Generator/ Jitter Cleaner (Dual Loop)” → “LMK0482x” → “LMK04828B”
Once started, TICS Pro will load the last used device. To load a new device, click “Select Device” from the
menu bar, then select the subgroup “Clock Generator/ Jitter Cleaner (Dual Loop)”, then “LMNK0482x”,
and finally the device to load. For this example, the LMK04828B is chosen. Selecting the device does
cause the device to be programmed. However, it is advisable to press “Ctrl+L”to ensure programming.
