DC1485A - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC1485A
LTC2757
18-Bit, Parallel Input,
SoftSpan IOUT DAC
Description
Demonstration circuit 1485A features the LTC®2757A single
18-bit SoftSpan™ IOUT DAC with ±1LSB maximum INL. This
device features six programmable output ranges: 0V to 5V,
0V to 10V, ± 5V, ±10V, ±2.5V and –2.5V to 7.5V. The demo
circuit allows all of the LTC2757’s features to be exercised,
including system-level gain and offset adjustments.

quick start procedure
Connect a clean ±15V power supply to the turret posts at
the bottom of the DC1485A board. Connect J1 to a DC590
USB serial controller using the supplied 14-conductor ribbon cable. Connect DC590 to a host PC with a standard
USB A/B cable. Run the QuikEval™ evaluation software
which can be downloaded from www.linear.com/software.
The correct control panel will be loaded automatically. The
software automatically sets the LTC2757 outputs according
to the entries in the control panel. A square wave option
is available to test settling time. MSPAN jumper should be
in the lower position if software span control is desired.
Additional software documentation may be available
from the Help menu item, as features may be added
periodically.

DEMO MANUAL DC1485A
Using the Parallel Connector
Protocol
The DC1485A can be used without the DC590 QuikEval
system. If a DC590 demo board is not connected the shift
registers on the DC1485A are disabled, allowing the user
to clock in data through the parallel connector (P1).
The data input register is loaded directly from the 18-bit
microprocessor bus (D0-D17 on the parallel connector)
by holding the D_/S pin low and then pulsing the WR_
pin low. The second register (DAC register) is loaded by
pulsing the UPD pin high, which copies the data held in
the input register into the DAC register. Note that updates
always include both data and span; but the DAC register
values will not change unless the input register values
have been changed by writing.
Loading the span input register is accomplished in a similar
manner, by holding the D_/S pin high and then bringing
the WR_ pin low. The span and data register structures
are the same except for the number of parallel bits. The
span registers have three bits, while the data registers
have 18 bits.
Please see the LTC2757 data sheet for in depth timing
diagrams and more information about the communication protocol.
Parallel Pin Descriptions
D0-D17: DAC Input/Output Data Bits. These I/O pins set
and read back the DAC code. D17 is the MSB. D0 is the
LSB.
D_/S: Data/Span Select: This pin is used to select activation of the data or span I/O pins (D0 to D17 or S0 to
S2, respectively), along with their respective dedicated
registers, for write or read operations. Update operations
ignore D_/S, since all updates affect both data and span
registers. For single-span operation, tie D_/S to GND.
READ: Read Pin. When READ is asserted high, the data
I/O pins (D0-D17) or span I/O pins (S0-S2) output the
contents of the selected register. For single-span operation,
readback of the span I/O pins is disabled.
UPD: Update and Buffer Select Pin. When READ is held low
and UPD is asserted high, the contents of the input registers
(both data and span) are copied into their respective DAC
registers. The output of the DAC is updated, reflecting the
new DAC register values. When READ is held high, the
update function is disabled and the UPD pin functions as
a buffer selector—logic low to select the input register,
high for the DAC register.
WR_: Active Low Write Pin. A Write operation copies
the data present on the data or span I/O pins (D0-D17 or
S0-S2, respectively) into the input register. When READ
is high, the Write function is disabled.
MSPAN: Manual Span Control Pin. MSPAN is used to
configure the LTC2757 for operation in a single, fixed
output range.
G: Ground Pin. (Note, if an IDE cable is used, Pin 21 is
often keyed on the connector and may be trimmed.)
S0-S2: Span Input/Output. Pins S0, S1 and S2 are used to
program and to read back the output range of the DAC.

Hardware Setup
Jumpers
Analog Connections (Turret Posts)
MSPAN: Manual Span Control Pin. MSPAN is used to
configure the LTC2757 for operation in a single, fixed
output range. If MSPAN is high it will be configured for
single-span use. If MSPAN is low it will be set through the
QuikEval Software. Default position is 0 (low).
VOUT : DAC Voltage Output.
S0, S1, S2: Used to set the fixed output range if MSPAN
is high. Default position is 0, 0, 0 (0V to 5V).

REFADJ: Gain Adjust Pin. If no adjustments are required,
select GND. Selecting EXT connects the pin to the turret
allowing external adjustment to null gain error or compensate for reference errors.
RVOS: Offset adjustment for DAC. If no offset adjustment
is required, select GND. Selecting EXT connects the offset
pin to the turret allowing external adjustment of offset.
VCC: Select source for 5V VCC supply. Set to 5V for supply
by onboard LT1236 reference (recommended). Set to REG
to be supplied by regulated supply from DC590 Controller
and remove the jumper to supply externally.
VREF: DAC Reference Voltage. If the onboard LT1236 references are selected, the voltage may be measured at these
points. If a remote reference is selected, then an external
reference must be applied to these points.
RVOS: DAC Offset Adjust Input. Use only if RVOS jumper
is set to EXT. Nominal input range is ±5V.
REFADJ: Gain Adjust Pin. This voltage-control pin can be
used to null gain error or to compensate for reference errors. The gain error change expressed in LSB is the same
for any output range.
Power and Ground Connections
Analog Power: The 15V, –15V and GND turret posts are
the analog supplies for the internal DAC amplifiers. These
should be connected to a well regulated, low noise power
supply.
VCC: Connection to VCC. See schematic and description
for VCC jumper.
Grounding: Separate power and signal grounds are provided. Signal GND is the turret closest to VOUT , use this
for measurement ground and output return. Power GND
is between AMP V+ and AMP V– turrets.
