Quick Start Procedure
Connect one of the five sensor daughter boards (DC2210,
DC2211, DC2212, DC2213 or DC2214) to the DC2209
demo board. Connect the DC2209 to a DC2026 using
the supplied 14-conductor ribbon cable. Connect the
DC2026 to the PC using a standard USB A/B cable. Run
the QuikEval software which the latest version can be
downloaded from the Linear website at www.linear.com/
software. The LTC2983 demo program will be loaded
automatically. Refer to software manual LTC2983DSM
for more detailed information.
The demo software helps program and run the LTC2983.
It can configure the LTC2983, check and save the configuration, run the LTC2983, output the results into a file,
and even create Linduino One ready C code based on
the configuration. The demo software allows the user to
configure the LTC2983 manually or automatically from
data stored in the daughter board EEPROM. Please see

DEMO MANUAL DC2296
Hardware Setup
The universal temperature measurement board has a
built-in sense resistor for RTD applications as well as a
cold junction sensor diode for thermocouple applications
(see Figure 6 for the DC2211 schematic diagram). The
sense resistor is a 2kΩ ±0.1% 10ppm/°C sense resistor
on channels 1 and 2 which may be used with any of the
supported RTD sensor types. The precise value of this
sense resistor is stored in an on-board EEPROM. The
LTC2983 demo software can read this EEPROM and use
to configure the sense resistor value in the LTC2983’s
configuration memory.
The external interface on the universal temperature measurement board is an 8-position screw-terminal block
with the flowing pinout.

DC2212 Thermocouple Daughter Board
The thermocouple board (see Figure 9) demonstrates the
flexibility, accuracy, and low noise features of the LTC2983
thermocouple modes.
If the user wishes to connect external sensors to the
thermocouple board, two universal-type thermocouple
jacks (J2 and J3) are provided (see schematic diagram
Figure 10 and corresponding software configuration
Figure 11). The user may connect any of the LTC2983
supported thermocouples (B, E, J, K, N, R, S, or T) as well
as custom thermocouples through these jacks.
To demonstrate the flexibility of the LTC2983, the thermocouple board includes cold junction diodes (Q1 and Q2)
embedded in each thermocouple socket. Alternatively, a
4-wire PT100 RTD (R5) can be used as the cold junction
sensor for either or both thermocouples.
To demonstrate the low system noise and offset of the
LTC2983, the thermocouple board provides a short to
ground on channel 5.
To demonstrate the accuracy of the LTC2983, the thermocouple board allows the user to connect a thermocouple
calibrator or an external voltage source to CH10 of the
LTC2983 through a pair of banana jacks (J4 and J5).

DC2213 Dedicated RTD Board
The DC2213 dedicated RTD board (see Figure 12) demonstrates the flexibility, accuracy, and low noise features
of the LTC2983 RTD sensor modes. The DC2213 provides
several circuits demonstrating the features of the LTC2983.
The DC2213 (see schematic diagram Figure 13 and corresponding software configuration Figure 14) provides a
2kΩ ±0.1% 10ppm/°C sense resistor on channels 2 and
3 which may be used with any of the RTD sensor circuits
on this board. An additional Kelvin connection is also
provided to this sense resistor on channel 1. The precise
measured value of this sense resistor is stored in an onboard EEPROM which the LTC2983 demo software can
read and use to configure the sense resistor value.
To demonstrate the low system noise of the LTC2983,
the dedicated RTD board provides a 0°C PT100 simulator
(100Ω ±0.01% 10ppm/°C) on channels 3 to 6 configured
as a 4-wire sensor. In addition to this the user may use this
circuit to demonstrate how the rotated mode eliminates
measurement error introduced by parasitic thermocouples.
To facilitate this measurement, the DC2213 provides an
external thermocouple interface which acts as a parasitic
thermocouple.
Figure 12. DC2213 Dedicated RTD Board
dc2296fa

DEMO MANUAL DC2296
Hardware Setup
To see the effects of parasitic thermocouples on non-rotated
measurement modes, first measure the on-board 0°C
PT100 simulator in a non-rotated configuration and see
the measurement error as the thermocouple’s temperature
changes. To see the benefit of the rotated measurement
mode, switch from the no rotation/sharing to the rotation/
sharing configuration and see the errors introduced by the
parasitic thermocouple minimized.
In addition to the fixed value RTD simulator, there is also
a variable resistor RTD simulator. This circuit can be used
to demonstrate the range of the various LTC2983 RTD
sensor modes as well as demonstrate the fault detection
capabilities of the LTC2983.
If the user wishes to connect an external RTD to the sensor
board, a 4-position terminal block is provided. The user
may connect any of the LTC2983 supported RTDs as well
as custom RTDs to the DC2209 demo board through this
interface. The interface may be configured for 3 or 4 wire
sensors. To demonstrate the accuracy of the LTC2983,
the user may also connect an RTD calibrator or precision
resistors to this interface.

DC2214 DEDICATED Thermistor Board
The DC2214 dedicated thermistor board includes several
circuits (see Figure 15) to demonstrate the flexibility, accuracy, and low noise features of the LTC2983 thermistor
sensor modes.
The DC2214 provides a 10kΩ ±0.1% 15ppm/°C sense
resistor on channels 1 and 2 which is shared with all of
the thermistor sensor circuits on this board (see schematic
diagram Figure 16 and corresponding software configuration Figure 17). The measured value of this sense resistor
is stored in an on-board EEPROM which the LTC2983
demo software can read and use to configure the sense
resistor value.
To demonstrate the low system noise of the LTC2983 the
dedicated thermistor board provides a 25°C 10k thermistor simulator (10kΩ ±0.1% 15ppm/°C) on channels 2-4
configured as a differential sensor. In addition to this the
user may use this circuit to demonstrate how the rotated
mode eliminates measurement error introduced by parasitic
thermocouples. To facilitate this demonstration the DC2214
provides an external thermocouple interface which acts
as a parasitic thermocouple.
To see the effects of parasitic thermocouples on nonrotated measurement modes, first measure the on-board
25°C 10k thermistor simulator in a no-rotation/sharing
configuration and see the measurement error as the
16
thermocouple’s temperature changes. To see the benefit
of the rotated measurement mode, switch to the rotation/
sharing configuration and see the errors introduced by the
parasitic thermocouple disappear (the effects are more
significant with lower excitation current).
The DC2214 also includes a 499kΩ (0.1% 15ppm/°C)
thermistor simulator on channels 9 and 10. Ideally, this
resistor simulates –30.59°C for a 44008 (30k) thermistor
and –51.94°C for a 44006 (10k) thermistor. Note, the 10k
thermistor reports the temperature, but also indicates a
soft fault since the temperature is below the thermistor’s
specified minimum temperature.
In addition to the fixed value thermistor simulators, there
is a variable resistor thermistor simulator as well. This
circuit can be used to demonstrate the range of the various
LTC2983 thermistor sensor modes as well as demonstrate
the fault detection capabilities of the LTC2983.
If the user wishes to connect an external thermistor to the
daughter board, a 2-position terminal block is provided.
The user may connect any of the LTC2983 supported
thermistors as well as custom thermistors to the DC2209
demo board through this interface. To demonstrate the
accuracy of the LTC2983, the user may connect external
resistance standards to this interface.
