TLV3607 Evaluation Module

Description

The TLV3607EVM is an evaluation board designed

to evaluate the high-speed dual channel TLV3607

comparator. The TLV3607EVM has layout options

intended to simply evaluate timing performance

with different measurement tools. The output of

the TLV3607 is designed for low-voltage differential

signals (LVDS), which provide high-speed signals to

interconnect devices such as FPGAs with minimal

power dissipation.

Features

• Low propagation delay

• Low overdrive dispersion

• High toggle frequency

• Narrow pulse width detection capability

• LVDS output

• Low input offset voltage

• RTE Package 16-pin WQFN

2.1 Recommended Equipment Setup

• Power Supply

• High Speed Functional Generator with fast rise/fall time recommended (≤ 500 ps)

• High Speed Oscilloscope with 50-Ω terminations

• SMA Cables/adapters

– All sensed input signals and output signals must have matched cable lengths

• IN+A SENSE, IN+B SENSE, OUT+A, OUT-A, OUT+B, OUT-B

2.2 Board Setup

2.2.1 Power Supplies

The TLV3607EVM can operate from +2.4V to +5.5V in either single or split supply configuration. Connect VCCI

and VCCO to TP5 and TP3, respectively. For single supply configuration, connect system ground to TP1 and

TP6; use J3 and J17 to connect VEE to GND. This user's guide assumes single supply configuration is used.

If split supply configuration is desired, then connect VEE to TP2 and TP4; connect GND to TP1 and TP6. This

configuration can be desirable if the reference voltage is at GND or if there is a need to zoom into the amplitude

of the input as much as possible.

2.2.2 Inputs

Resistors R4 and R12 are 0-Ω resistors. The non-inverting input terminals (IN+A and IN+B) have corresponding

sense lines so that the inputs to the device can be terminated on the lines with 50-Ω to an oscilloscope.

This allows the input signals to be observed with minimal loading and distortion. There are also optional input

resistors (R6 and R9) for direct 50-Ω termination if required by the input signal generator, otherwise the input

resistors can be left uninstalled.

Figure 2-2. Input Side Block Diagram

The TLV3607 can be put in either active or shutdown mode through the SHDNA and SHDNB pins. Each channel

of the TLV3607 is in shutdown mode when their respective shutdown pins are tied to VEE though jumpers J1

and J13; otherwise the pins can be left open or tied to VCCO. If necessary to dynamically control when the

device shutdowns, then a pulsing signal can be applied to SMA connectors J2 and J16.

The TLV3607 utilizes pins LE/HYSA and LE/HYSB to adjust the internal hysteresis of the comparator through

the attachment of a external resistors R2 and R14 connecting to VEE. R2 and R14 are 150-kΩ resistors to allow

for 30 mV of internal hysteresis, but these resistors can be replaced accordingly to desired amount of hysteresis.

C4 and C7 are 100 pF capacitors for extra filtering.

Alternatively, these pins also have a latch functionality. If the pin is connected to VEE, then the device holds

the output state for as long as the pin remains connected to that voltage. If the pin is connected to VCC, then

the device functions normally with no hysteresis. However, if necessary to dynamically control when the device

latches, then a pulsing signal can be applied to SMA connectors J4 and J15.

2.2.3 Outputs

C16, C17, C18, and C19 are installed with 0.1-uF capacitors. If a 100-Ω differential probe is unavailable to

measure the LVDS output, then these capacitors allow for the AC portion of the signal to be seen on a 50-Ω

terminated scope. Keep in mind that any duty cycle other than 50% results in a DC portion of the signal that

is not halfway between VOH and VOL. As mentioned earlier, this is due to the charging and discharging of the

capacitors. A higher duty cycle results in a higher DC output voltage because the capacitors are charging more

than the capacitors are discharging.

2.2.4 Hysteresis

The TLV3607 utilizes pins LE/HYSA and LE/HYSB to adjust the internal hysteresis of the comparator through

the attachment of a external resistors R2 and R14 connecting to VEE. These resistors can be replaced

accordingly to desired amount of hysteresis. A curve of hysteresis versus resistance is provided below to provide

guidance in setting the desired amount.

Figure 2-5. VHYST (mV) vs. RHYST (kΩ)

The TLV3607EVM is also able to support external hysteresis for each non-inverting input. Input resistors R7

and R8 are 0-Ω resistors but can be replaced accordingly for desired amount of hysteresis. For channel A,

the feedback resistor is the combination of R5 and R3. Likewise, for channel B, the feedback resistor is the

combination of R10 and R11. All resistors must be populated. If no external hysteresis is required, then these

optional feedback resistors can be left uninstalled.

2.3 Quick-Start Procedure

Note

Do not turn on power supply until all connections to the device are made to the board.

The procedures listed below are the steps for a quick-start set-up using channel A.

1. Set VCCI/VCCO Power Supply to 5.0 V and disable the power supply output.

2. Since the same power supply is used for both VCCI and VCCO, connect positive terminal supply to TP5 and

TP3, and negative terminal to TP6.

3. Connect VEE and GND via jumper J17 and J3.

4. Connect SHDNA to VCCO via jumper J1 and SHDNB to VEE via jumper J13. This sets Channel A in active

mode and Channel B in shutdown mode.

5. Verify that cables connecting to IN+A SENSE, OUT+A, and OUT-A are matched length and impedance.

Perform any de-skewing if necessary. Set the function generator (50-Ω terminated) to produce a square

wave output with 400mVpp at 10 MHz, with a DC offset of 0.300 V. Disable the signal generator output.

Connect the output to IN+A.

6. Set one of the outputs of the DC power supply to 300 mV. Disable the power supply output. Connect the

output to IN-A.

7. Connect OUT+A and OUT-A to a 50-Ω terminated channel on the oscilloscope.

8. Connect IN+A SENSE, to another 50-Ω terminated scope channel.

9. Enable the VCCI/VCCO power supply.

10. Verify the total supply current is < 18 mA.

11. Enable the signal generator.

12. Monitor and verify the inputs from IN+A SENSE.

13. Monitor and verify the outputs for OUT+A and OUT-A.
