Using the HI3026 and HI3026A Evaluation Boards TM Application Note May 1999 Introduction AN9652 TABLE 1. OPERATING CONDITIONS The purpose of this application note is to describe the evaluation boards for either the HI3026 or HI3026A 8-bit ultra high speed analog to digital converters (ADC). The main difference between the two devices is the maximum conversion speed of 120 MSPS and 140 MSPS respectively. This document will use HI3026 for both devices. The boards are shipped with the device soldered onto the PCB. The evaluation board includes many discrete components along with op amps, buffers, logic level conversion (ECL to TTL and TTL to ECL) and a 10-bit D/A converter for reconstructing the output of the HI3026. After latching the HI3026, input data with a frequency divided clock, the analog signal can be regenerated by a 10-bit high speed D/A converter. The latched data can also be extracted externally via a 24 pin cable connector.

The factory settings for the HI3026, Evaluation Board are as follows: VRB.R1 = 1.5V FULL SCALE.R4 = -1V S1 A···OPEN, B ···SHORT VRT.R2 = 3.0V FULL SCALE.R5 = -1V S2 8···SHORT (1/8 frequency division) OFFSET.R3 = 2.25V When using the board in this condition, the input signals should be input at the amplitudes shown below. (The frequency is set as desired.) 2. When the analog signal is input from the CON1 (AMP.IN) pin, IC2:CLC404 limits the input dynamic range of the A/D converter’s analog input signal according to the +AMP and -AMP supply voltages. The power supply for the operational amplifier can also be shifted to +AMP = +7.0V and -AMP = -3.0V to allow use with a wider input dynamic range. ANALOG INPUT SIGNAL: CON1 (AMP.IN) CLOCK INPUT SIGNAL: CON3 (CLK.IN) 5 3. When the analog input signal is a sine wave or other repeating waveform, the signal can be input form the CON2 (DIR.IN) pin with AC coupling. In these cases, the input dynamic range is not limited by the +AMP and -AMP supply voltages, but the VRT level may be limited by IC3:NJM3403A. Therefore, the power supply for the operational amplifier should be shifted in the same manner as in 2. above. 4. In the evaluation board of the HI3026, CLC404 (Comlinear) is employed for IC2 to drive the analog input signal. Though, CLC505 (Comlinear) can also be used instead of CLC404, there should be little change in the peripheral circuit in this case. 0V CENTER, 800mVP-P OR LESS 0V CENTER, 1.0VP-P Application Note 9652 Timing Diagram N N+3 N+1 CON2 DIR IN 0V 2VP-P N+2 CON3 CLK IN HI3026 CLK HI3026 P1 SIDE DATA 1VP-P 0V (PECL) (TTL) N -4 N -3 N -2 N -1 APPROXIMATELY 6.0ns CON7 P1 SIDE DATA CLK CON7 P1 SIDE DATA DATA (TTL) (TTL) APPROXIMATELY 9.0ns N -6 N -4 N -2 N -6 N -4 CON4 P1 SIDE OUT N -2 (ANALOG REGENERATION WAVEFORM) 0V TO -1V OPERATING CONDITIONS HI3026 OPERATING MODE : STRAIGHT MODE ANALOG INPUT : DIR IN PIN INPUT S2 SETTING : 1/2 FREQUENCY DIVIDED CLOCK 6 Application Note 9652 Schematic Diagram HI3026 7 Application Note 9652 Schematic Diagram (Continued) HI20201 HI20201 8 Application Note 9652 Component List NO.
