DC1397B - Demo Manual

DEMO MANUAL DC1397B
LTC2656
16-Bit, Octal Rail-to-Rail DAC
with 10ppm/°C Max Reference
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1397B features the LTC®2656 Octal
16-bit DAC with ±4LSB INL error. This device establishes
a new board-density benchmark for 16-bit DACs and
advances performance standards for output drive, crosstalk and load regulation in single supply, voltage-output
multiple DACs.
The DC1397B has many features for evaluating the performance of the LTC2656. An external 1.25V precision
reference is provided.
Another feature of this board is the onboard LTC2428
20-bit delta-sigma ADC for monitoring the DAC output
voltage. The 16ppm total error of this device is adequate
for taking meaningful measurements of various LTC2656
parameters.

DEMO MANUAL DC1397B
QUICK START PROCEDURE
Connect DC1397B 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
evaluation software supplied with DC590 or download it
from www.linear.com/software. The correct control panel
will be loaded automatically. Click the COLLECT button
to begin outputting codes to the DACs and reading back
the resulting output voltage for each DAC.
Complete software documentation is available from the
Help menu item, as features may be added periodically.

HARDWARE SETUP
Jumpers
Grounding and Power Connections
JP1 – VREF Select. Either a 1.25V/2.048V internal or 1.25V
onboard reference can be selected. To apply an external
reference through the VREF turret, set jumper to EXT.
Power (VCC) – Normally DC1397B is powered by the DC590
controller. VCC can be supplied to this turret, however
the power supply on DC590 must be disabled! Refer to
DC590 Quick Start Guide for more details on this mode
of operation.
JP2 – Power-Up Mode. The LTC2656 can be set to either
power up at Mid-Scale or Zero-Scale.
JP3 – ADC Disable. Set to ON for normal operation, with
the onboard ADC enabled. For very sensitive noise measurements, the ADC may be disabled. The software will
then display a positive full-scale reading.
Grounding – Signal ground is connected to the exposed
ground planes at the top and bottom edges of the board,
and to the two turrets labeled “Gnd.” Use signal ground
as the reference point for measurements and connections
to external circuits.
Analog Connections
DAC Outputs – The eight DAC outputs from the LTC2656
are brought out to turrets labeled DAC A through DAC H.
These may be connected to external instruments or other
circuitry. DAC outputs are not in alphabetical order on the
circuit board.
VREF – The VREF turret is connected directly to the REFIN/
OUT pin of the LTC2656.
When one of the onboard references is being used, the
reference voltage may be monitored at this point. An
external reference may also be applied to this turret after
setting JP1 to EXT.
