DESCRIPTION

Demonstration circuit 1369 supports a family of 14/12

BIT 125 MSPS ADCs. Each assembly features one of

the following devices: LTC2261-14, LTC2261-12,

LTC2260-14, LTC2260-12, LTC2259-14, LTC2259-12,

LTC2258-14, LTC2258-12, LTC2257-14, LTC2257-12,

LTC2256-14, LTC2256-12, LTC2262-14, or LTC2262-

12 high speed, high dynamic range ADCs.

Demonstration circuit 1369 supports the LTC2261 fam-

ily DDR LVDS output mode. This family of ADCs is

also supported by demonstration circuit 1370A, which

is compatible with CMOS and DDR CMOS output

modes.

Several versions of the 1369A demo board supporting

the LTC2261 12/14-BIT series of A/D converters are

listed in Table 1. Depending on the required resolution

and sample rate, the DC1369 is supplied with the ap-

propriate ADC. The circuitry on the analog inputs is

optimized for analog input frequencies from 5 MHz to

170MHz. Refer to the datasheet for proper input net-

works for different input frequencies.

Design files for this circuit board are available. Call

the LTC factory.

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Demonstration circuit 1369 is easy to set up to

evaluate the performance of the LTC2261 A/D

converters. Refer to Figure 1 for proper meas-

urement equipment setup and follow the proce-

dure below:

SETUP

If a DC890 FastDAACS Data Acquisition and

Collection System was supplied with the DC1369

demonstration circuit, follow the DC890 Quick

Start Guide to install the required software and

for connecting the DC890 to the DC1369 and to

a PC running Windows98, 2000 or XP.

APPLYING POWER AND SIGNALS TO THE

DC996 DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT

If a DC890 is used to acquire data from the

DC1369, the DC890 must FIRST be con-

nected to a powered USB port or provided an

external 6-9V BEFORE applying +3.6V to

+6.0V across the pins marked “V+” and

“GND” on the DC1369. DC1369 requires 3.6V

for proper operation. Regulators on the board

produce the voltages required for the ADC.

The DC1369 demonstration circuit requires up

to 250mA depending on the sampling rate and

the A/D converter supplied.

The DC890 data collection board is powered

by the USB cable and does not require an ex-

ternal power supply unless it must be con-

nected to the PC through an un-powered hub,

in which case it must be supplied an external

6-9V on turrets G7(+) and G1(-) or the adja-

cent 2.1mm power jack.

ANALOG INPUT NETWORK

For optimal distortion and noise performance

the RC network on the analog inputs may

need to be optimized for different analog input

frequencies. For input frequencies above 170

MHz, refer to the LTC2261 datasheet for a

proper input network. Other input networks

may be more appropriate for input frequen-

cies less that 5MHz.

In almost all cases, filters will be required on

both analog input and encode clock to provide

data sheet SNR. In the case of the DC1369 a

band pass filter used for the clock should be

used prior to the DC1075A.

The filters should be located close to the in-

puts to avoid reflections from impedance dis-

continuities at the driven end of a long trans-

mission line. Most filters do not present 50Ω

outside the passband. In some cases, 3dB to

10dB pads may be required to obtain low dis-

tortion.

If your generator cannot deliver full scale sig-

nals without distortion, you may benefit from a

medium power amplifier based on a Gallium

Arsenide Gain block prior to the final filter.

This is particularly true at higher frequencies

where IC based operational amplifiers may be

unable to deliver the combination of low noise

figure and High IP3 point required. A high or-

der filter can be used prior to this final ampli-

fier, and a relatively lower Q filter used be-

tween the amplifier and the demo circuit.

ENCODE CLOCK

NOTE: Apply an encode clock to the SMA

connector on the DC1369 demonstration cir-

cuit board marked “J7”. As a default the

DC1369 is populated to have a single ended

input.

For the best noise performance, the ENCODE

INPUT must be driven with a very low jitter,

square wave source. The amplitude should be

large, up to 3V

P-P

or 13dBm. When using a

sinusoidal signal generator a squaring circuit

can be used. Linear Technology also pro-

vides demo board DC1075A that divides a

high frequency sine wave by four, producing a

low jitter square wave for best results with the

LTC2261.

Using band pass filters on the clock and the

analog input will improve the noise perform-

ance by reducing the wideband noise power

of the signals. In the case of the DC1369 a

band pass filter used for the clock should be

used prior to the DC1075A. Datasheet FFT

5

plots are taken with 10 pole LC filters made by

TTE (Los Angeles, CA) to suppress signal

generator harmonics, non-harmonically re-

lated spurs and broadband noise. Low phase

noise Agilent 8644B generators are used with

TTE band pass filters for both the Clock input

and the Analog input.

Apply the analog input signal of interest to the

SMA connectors on the DC1369 demonstra-

tion circuit board marked “J5 AIN+”. These

inputs are capacitive coupled to Balun trans-

formers ETC1-1-13.

An internally generated conversion clock out-

put is available on J1 which could be collected

via a logic analyzer, or other data collection

system if populated with a SAMTEC MEC8-

150 type connector or collected by the DC890

QuickEval-II Data Acquisition Board using

PScope software.

SOFTWARE

The DC890B is controlled by the PScope Sys-

tem Software provided or downloaded from

the Linear Technology website at

http://www.linear.com/software/. If a DC890B

was provided, follow the DC890 Quick Start

Guide and the instructions below.

To start the data collection software if

“PScope.exe”, is installed (by default) in

\Program Files\LTC\PScope\, double click the

PScope Icon or bring up the run window un-

der the start menu and browse to the PScope

directory and select PScope.

If the DC1369 demonstration circuit is prop-

erly connected to the DC890, PSCOPE

should automatically detect the DC1369, and

configure itself accordingly. If necessary the

procedure below explains how to manually

configure PSCOPE.

Under the “Configure” menu, go to “ADC

Configuration....” Check the “Config Manu-

ally” box and use the following configuration

options, see Figure 2:

Manual Configuration settings:

Bits: 14

Alignment: 14

FPGA Ld: DDR LVDS

Channs: 2

Bipolar: Checked

Positive-Edge Clk: Checked

Figure 2: ADC configuration

If everything is hooked up properly, powered

and a suitable convert clock is present, click-

ing the “Collect” button should result in time

and frequency plots displayed in the PScope

window. Additional information and help for

PScope is available in the DC890B Quick

Start Guide and in the online help available

within the PScope program itself.

SERIAL PROGRAMMING

PScope has the ability to program the DC1369

board serially through the DC890. There are

several options available in the LTC2261 family

that are only available through serially pro-

gramming. PScope allows all of these features

to be tested.

These options are available by first clicking on

the “Set Demo Bd Options” icon on the PScope

toolbar (Figure 3).

Figure 3: PScope Toolbar

This will bring up the menu shown in figure 4.

Figure 4: Demobd Configuration Options.

This menu allows any of the options available for

the LTC2261 family to be programmed serially.

The LTC2261 family has the following options:

eration, nap, and sleep modes:
