LTC1864

16-Bit 250ksps ADC

Demonstration circuit 416 features the LTC1864 16-bit

250ksps analog-to-digital converter.

This board provides a means to evaluate the performance

oftheLTC1864witheithertheLinearTechnologyPScope™

data acquisition system, or with other parallel or serial

data acquisition systems.

The board also demonstrates proper layout techniques in

the circuitry surrounding the ADC and in the segmenta-

tion of the planes required to achieve full performance

with the ADC.

These techniques include proper grounding of the device

and associated bypass capacitors, placement of the device

relativetointerconnectionofanaloganddigitalsubsystems

and signal routing in proximity to the ADC.

This board performs serial to parallel conversion in a man-

ner that is unlikely to be used in an actual implementation,

but is representative of what could be implemented in an

FPGA. It is expected that with this ADC, the interface will

be performed serially with either programmable logic, a

general-purpose processor, a DSP, or across an isolated

link of one of many types. The complexity of the circuitry

respective owners.

is hence much greater than what would be required in

almost any practical application.

The LTC1864 and its demo board are intended to be used

with the PScope data acquisition system for characteriza-

tion of the ADC in AC applications extending from Hz to

MHz. The full power bandwidth of the LTC1864 is high

enough to produce good performance in under-sampling

applications, as well as applications where the signal

content is below Nyquist.

The board contains a bandwidth-limiting filter at the input

of the ADC (C7, C8, C9, R1 and R2), as well as provision

for an amplifier (U2). This bandwidth-limiting filter (–3dB at

1.5MHz)istypicalofwhatmay be requiredformany applica-

tions, but it is not necessarily the best for all applications.

Theboard also incorporates an LTC1799 resistor program-

mable oscillator as an optional clock source.

Design files for this circuit board are available at

http://www.linear.com/demo/DC416

Demonstration circuit 416 is easy to set up to evaluate

the performance of the LTC1864. Refer to Figure 1 for

proper measurement equipment setup and follow the

procedure below:

NOTE: The demo board is shipped with jumpers in place

to allow the use of an external oscillator at 80×the sample

rate. Figure 1 shows the default jumper positions.

1. Connect the parallel output J4 to either the DC718 data

collection board, or to a suitable acquisition system.

Pin 3 of J4 is the data strobe.

2. Observe correct polarity; Connect +8V to +15V to

terminal E1. Note that –15V is only required if U2 is

installed. There are two on board regulators. Both are

5V, although U1 the reference can be substituted with

a lower voltage.

3. If the intent is to do an evaluation of AC performance,

connect a sinusoidal (or other) input signal to J1, or

J1 and J2, with a nominal DC bias of 2.5V. If only J1 is

used (single-ended operation), JP3 should be installed.

Thisconverterconvertsunipolardifferentialinputsfrom

0 – VREF.

NOTE: The AIN inputs do not have 50Ω termination. Most

generators will produce the correct signal level only if the

cable is terminated at 50Ω. If you are driving this from

a generator, you should use 50Ω through terminators.

Take care not to overdrive the inputs if you do not use

terminators.

4. Connect a 20MHz digital clock to CLKIN. With default

jumpers in place, this will result in a 250ksps conver-

sion rate.

5. Collect data via PScope for a Fourier transform into the

frequency domain, or to allow data to be collected and

saved to a file for subsequent import and analysis in

Excel, Matlab or other analysis packages.

Duplication of the FFT results shown in the data sheet

requires the use of a low jitter clock and waveform genera-

tors synchronized such that the input waveform must be

within a few ppm of an exact multiple of the conversion

clockdividedbythe FFT size(termed coherent). For 250kHz

sample rate and a 4096 point FFT, input frequencies should

bean exact multiple of 61.035156Hz, and preferably aprime

number multiple or at least an odd number multiple. The

use of an even number multiple will exercise a minimal

number of codes, producing poor results.

operation

The conversion clock (CONV) is derived from the CLKIN

connector (J3) via a programmable divider.

The board is shipped with this divider set to divide by 80

(JP8 and JP9). In order for this converter to achieve its

maximum throughput of 250ksps, the data transfer time

must be completed in 1/fSAMPLE – TCONV, which requires

that the SCLK be at 20MHz.

The programmable divider can be strapped for differ-

ent divide ratios if the required sample rate is less than

250ksps, allowing a greater percentage of the time avail-

able doing data transfer (divide ratio of less than 80), or

if a comparable SCLK rate is used, with a lower sample

rate (divide ratio greater than 80).

JP8 and JP9 are set to code 16–(divide ratio/16) or 11 in

the case of a divide ratio of 80.

The counter circuitry gates a sequence of 16 clock pulses

during CONV = 0. These can be observed on CLKOUT, or

if CONV is introduced externally, (remove JP4) the clock

pulses can be introduced via CLKIN (JP6 to pin 1, JP7 to

pin 1 if no inversion is required).

JP6 (pin 2–3) allows the use of the onboard LTC1799

oscillator. Note that this oscillator will not produce data

sheet performance unless the input frequency is quite low,

as the phase jitter of this oscillator will be transformed in

the presence of high slew rate signals into random noise.

If the amplitude of the signal falls off with increasing

frequency as many natural phenomena do, this oscillator

may produce acceptable results.

If you are under-sampling, or operating the converter near

Nyquist, it is important to have a low jitter clock source.

The data output DOUT is shifted into a pair of 74HC595

serial to parallel shift registers that have output holding

registers, and tri-stateable outputs. If you intend to in-

corporate the demo board into a prototype of a system,

ENABLEDATA can be used to gate the outputs onto a

16-bit bus. Alternatively, all of the signals can be produced

externally, and data can be read into a DSP via DOUT.

If you elect to use the on-board timing to clock data into a

slaved serial input port, you can use DOUT, CKOUT, along

with CONV as a busy signal or as a means of producing

a frame sync.

In the event that you do not have “coherent” signal sources

as described above, you can use windowing functions

to reduce the “leakage” effect that occurs in the Fourier

transform and get a reasonably accurate figure for SNR,

THD, SINAD and the levels of the various harmonics.
