Product Overview 1.1 INTRODUCTION The MCP661 Line Driver Demo Board is described by the following: • Assembly # : 114-00270-R1 • Order # : MCP661DM-LD • Name: MCP661 Line Driver Demo Board Items discussed in this chapter include: • Kit Contents • Intended Use • Description 1.2 KIT CONTENTS • Assembled printed circuit board, 102-00270 • Important Information “Read First” FIGURE 1-1: © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP661 Line Driver Demo Board Kit Contents. DS51868A-page 9 MCP661 Line Driver Demo Board User’s Guide 1.3 INTENDED USE The MCP661 Line Driver Demo Board shows the MCP661 used in a very basic application for high speed op amps; a 50Ω line (coax) driver. It gives: • A 30 MHz solution • High speed PCB layout techniques • A means to test AC response, step response and distortion The application circuit implemented on this PCB is discussed briefly in the MCP661/2/3/5 data sheet’s application circuit section. 1.4 DESCRIPTION 1.4.1 Simplified Circuit Figure 1-2 shows a simplified circuit diagram of the MCP661 Line Driver Demo Board. Details of the power supply and connectors have been left out. VIN (50Ω Source) U1 MCP661 50Ω TX Line R3 49.9Ω R4 124Ω R5 301Ω FIGURE 1-2: 50Ω TX Line R7 49.9Ω VOUT (50Ω Load) R6 301Ω Simplified Circuit Diagram. The 50Ω source drives the matched 50Ω transmission line at the input; R3 provides this match. Thus, the input transmission line can be treated as a simple connection for circuit analysis (ignoring the time delay). R4 provides matched input resistances for U1’s inputs. It also set a pole around 100 MHz, since U1’s CCM is about 9 pF. U1 (MCP661) is set at a gain of 2 V/V so that the overall gain is 1 V/V (R7 and the Load attenuate the signal by 0.5 V/V). U1’s large output current makes it possible to drive the back-matched output transmission line (R7, the 50Ω line and the 50Ω load at the far end) to more than ±2V (the load at the far end sees ±1V). U1’s output headroom limits would be VOL = -2.3V and VOH = +2.3V, leaving some design room for the ±2V signal. The open-loop gain (AOL) typically does not decrease significantly with a 100Ω load. The maximum power dissipated by the op amp is about 48 mW, so the temperature rise (for the MCP661 in the SOIC-8 package) is under 8°C. The output transmision line can be treated as a simple connection for circuit analysis (ignoring the time delay). DS51868A-page 10 © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. Product Overview 1.4.2 Power Supply Figure 1-3 shows the power supply circuitry. R1 and R2 provide high frequency isolation of the supply lines. They also help with series resonances in the supplies. C1 and C2 provide the bulk bypassing, while C3 and C4 provide the local bypassing, for U1 (MCP661). VDDX (+2.5V) C3 100 nF R1 1.0Ω C1 10 µF GND (0V) VSSX (-2.5V) FIGURE 1-3: 1.4.3 U1 MCP661 C2 10 µF R2 1.0Ω C4 100 nF Power Supply. Connectors and Transmission Lines The power supplies use surface mount test points to connect to the lab supplies. The signal input and output are connected via BNC recepticles (and coax cables) to 50Ω lab equipment. The PCB has two 50Ω transmission lines between the BNC recepticles and the matching resistors (R3 and R7 in Figure 1-2). They are 100 mils (2.54 mm) wide, which is a value commonly used for standard FR4 PCBs with only two layers. These lines are as long as possible; they end at the matching resistors (to avoid parasitic capacitance issues). © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.
