DC1096B - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC1096B
LTC2642A-16
16-Bit Unbuffered VOUT DAC
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1096B features the LTC®2642A-16,
a 16-bit voltage output DAC. The LTC2642A-16 output is
unbuffered, allowing it to swing all the way to the supply rails.
DC1096B is a member of Linear Technology’s QuikEval™
family of demonstration boards. It is designed to allow
easy evaluation of the LTC2642A-16 and may be connected
directly to the target application’s analog signals while
using the DC590 USB serial controller board and supplied
software to measure performance. The exposed ground
planes allow proper grounding to prototype circuitry.
After evaluating with Linear Technology’s software, the
digital signals can be connected to the end application’s
processor/controller for development of the serial interface.

DEMO MANUAL DC1096B
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Connect DC1096B to a DC590 USB serial controller using
the supplied 14-conductor ribbon cable. Connect DC590
to host PC with a standard USB A/B cable. Run the evaluation software supplied with DC590 or downloaded from
www.linear.com/software. The correct program will be
loaded automatically. By default, the control program will
load a DC value into the LTC2642A-16. The value may be
changed by typing hexadecimal counts (0000 - FFFF),
or decimal counts (0 – 65535), or the voltage desired
depending on the option selected. Setting the software
to unipolar or bipolar will not set the hardware to bipolar
mode. The jumpers need to be placed in their proper
positions in order to accomplish this.
The other option is a square wave output. The frequency
of the square wave is not tightly controlled; it is intended
to allow measurement of settling time and glitch impulse.
Features may be periodically added to the software, see
the software’s help menu for the latest information.

HARDWARE SETUP
POWER CONNECTIONS
CONNECTION TO DC590 SERIAL CONTROLLER
A low noise, bipolar power supply can be connected to
the AMPV+, AMPV–, and GND turret posts.
J1 is the power and digital interface connector. Connect
to DC590 serial controller with supplied 14-conductor
ribbon cable.
If an external supply is connected, the respective jumpers
must be placed in the EXT position.
This provides power to the LT1678 amplifier and optional
amplifiers U5, U8, or U9. The LT1678 will work with supplies as high as ±15V, consult the data sheet for supply
limitations on any optional amplifiers that are installed.
JUMPERS
JP1: Select the source for REF+, either 2.5V or 5V from
the onboard LT1019 or LT1236 reference (default – 5V)
JP2: Select the VCC source, either provided by a connected
DC590 or an external source.
JP3: Sets DAC2 to either unipolar or bipolar mode. In bipolar
mode, set JP6 and JP7 to EXT and apply an appropriate
supply to AMP V+, AMP V–, and GND turret posts.
JP4: Sets DAC3 to either unipolar or bipolar mode. In bipolar
mode, set JP6 and JP7 to EXT and apply an appropriate
supply to AMP V+, AMP V–, and GND turret posts.
OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
E3 is the output from U1, which is buffered by an LTC6078
op amp.
E4 is the output from U2, which is buffered by an LT1678
op amp. JP3 allows this DAC to be configured for either
unipolar or bipolar operation.
E5 is the buffered output of U4, if an optional amplifier is
installed. There are three standard op amp footprints that
allow other amplifiers to be evaluated.
E10 is directly connected to U4’s output.
REFERENCE CONNECTIONS
JP1 selects between the onboard 5V reference and the
onboard 2.5V reference. The reference voltage can be
monitored on E9, or an external reference may be applied
to E9 if JP1 is removed.
JP6: Sets V+ for the amplifiers to either external (AMP V+)
or VCC.
JP7: Sets V– for the amplifiers to either external (AMP V–)
or ground.
