QUICK START GUIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT 1150A BROADBAND ULTRA LOW DISTORTION 7-BIT DIGITALLY CONTROLLED VGA LT5554 DESCRIPTION Demonstration circuit 1150A 1150A is a featuring the LTC5554 IC, a 7-bit programmable gain amplifier. It incorporates a variety of passive components to support configurations for varied applications. The LT5554 is a differential input and output precision programmable gain amplifier with 16dB gain range and 0.125dB gain step. The seven LT5554 gain control inputs (PGx, x=0,2,..6) and the STROBE input can be coupled to TTL (DCcoupling type) or ECL and (low-voltage) CMOS drivers (AC-coupling type) without external components. The 3state MODE pin allows the selection of the coupling type. The LT5554 gain state can be updated asynchronously when STROBE is HIGH or synchronously using the STROBE input positive transition. In the latter STROBEDMODE, the external control logic time skew is eliminated and synchronization with the ADC clock is possible. With 0.125dB step resolution and 5ns settling time, the LT5554 may be suited in quasi-continuous gain control applications. The LT5554 power and voltage gain for Maximum Gain is 18dB when application Rout=50*. Application gain can be changed with different Rout selections. The LT5554 amplifier is unconditionally stable. Consequently, LC-filters or SAW filters can be connected to the LT5554 I/O pins without padding. Lacking global feed-back, the LT5554 has -80dB reverse isolation @ 400MHz (package limited).

For DC1150A board output modifications, please refer to Table 5 above or figure 16 and table 3 on page 23 of the LT5554 datasheet. INTERMODULATION AND HARMONIC DISTORTION MEASUREMENTS The LT5554 performance is better than most signal generators and spectrum analyzers can provide. The available instrumentation performance test consists in connecting the signal source to the spectrum analyzer (bypass the DC1150A board). If the measured performance is worse than LT5554 datasheet figure, please refer to the Application Note 97 (published for the related LT5514 part) for signal source conditioning and spectrum analyzer setup. OUTPUT POWER MATCHING RELATED OIP3 AND GAIN -3DB DISCREPANCY The ROUT stands for the total output impedance as seen by the LT5554 open-collector outputs with equates to RO || (R5+R6) || R(T2). (where RO =400 is the LT5554 internal resistor and R(T2) is the T2 transformer secondary impedance). Then, the LT5554 power gain is: GP=10log(RIN *GM2 *ROUT) in dB The DC1150A board output power matching loss on [ RO || (R5+R6) ] accounts for a DC1150A measured BoardGain and OIP3 -3dB lower than the LT5554 datasheet performance stated for driving an on-board load, without output power matching (like in the ADC interface application case). HIGHER OIP3 AND Rout MEASUREMENTS By default, the DC1150A board has ROUT = 50 which provides best SFDF, not necessarily best OIP3. If the application bandwidth is greater than the T2 output transformer bandwidth, the DC1150A board can be reconfigured according to the LT5554 datasheet figure 17 and table 4. TIMING MEASUREMENTS The DC1150A timing measurements require the J2, J4, J6 (PGx), J7 (STROBE) connectors to be mounted. The function of each connector is outlined in table 2 above and the circuit is depicted in the datasheet (page 26) figure 20 to be implemented according to datasheet instructions. This setup can evaluate only three PGx at a time. The LT5554 part can be seen as a multiplier with an analog port (IN+, IN-) and a 7-bit logarithmic DAC port and opens the signal synthesizer and conditioning applications. The DC1150A board can be used to test the LT5554 in such applications if PGx 7-bit data is supplied via the J5 edge connector. DRIVING THE INPUTS DC-COUPLED It is possible to drive the LT5554 inputs differentially with DC coupling. Transformer T1 should be replaced with 0 resistors and connector J11 reconfigured as for differential input as illustrated on page 5. The LT5554 internal input common-mode bias reference available at DEC pin is used for the external DC level shifter circuit used to drive the LT5554 IN+, IN- inputs in DC-coupling applications. The DC current flowing into LT5554 IN+, IN- inputs can be monitored and maintained within +/- 200A limits for best operation. The external drive circuit must have a DC 100 differential output 8 QUICK START GUIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT 1150A BROADBAND ULTRA LOW DISTORTION 7-BIT DIGITALLY CONTROLLED VGA impedance to retain the specified LT5554 gain step ac- AC-COUPLED DIFFERENTIAL OUTPUTS The LT5554 outputs can drive differentially a 3V ADC like LTC2254/5 LTC2208/9 with AC coupling. Transformer T2 should be replaced with 0 resistors and connector J33 reconfigured as described in Table 4 and illustrated on page 6 for differential output. Resistors R5 and R6=28.7 should be mounted to provide a differential 50 source impedance for the ADC inputs. The circuit is shown in figure 1 below.

A further refinement user may consider is to use external (high impedance) DC-current sources either open-loop or in a DC-loop controlled by the ADC VCM internal reference. This allows the setting of the LT5554 DC output common mode voltage independent of R5, R6 values. When high OP1dB are desired, the VccO can be increased but must not exceed the absolute maximum rating of 7V for OUT+ and OUT- (in shut-down full VccO voltage is applied to OUT+, OUT-). ADC INPUT OVERDRIVE PROTECTION Unlike LTC ADC parts, some ADC parts from other vendors may exhibit long recovery time when ADC inputs are driven beyond supply rail. With 5ns recovery time, the LT5554 part can provide the power limiting function when driving such ADC parts. The DC1150A board required modifications to test the power limiting function are based on one of the following two methods: Low ROUT values (current limiting) Lower the VccO supply voltage (voltage limiting) C18 0.1uF Figure 1. Differential 50 Ohm source impedance for ADC The LT5554 IODC=45mA output bias current (fairly constant throughout VGA range and temperature) will produce a 1.3V drop across (each) R5, R6 connected to VccO=5V. The DC1150A board common mode voltage at J3, J33 connectors is 3.7V. The VccO=5V specified OIP3=46dBm changes to OIP3=44.5dBm for 3.7V output common mode voltage. The ADC part will have Vcc=5V and GROUND DC level shifted with 2V and appropriately decoupled to the board ground plane. Then the common mode voltage of both parts will be fairly aligned. This is possible because LT5554 linearity close to compression is still good as depicted in the LT5554 datasheet typical characteristic section. SCHEMATIC NOTES The following schematic components may not be required in user application: * C6, the MODE decoupling capacitor * C5, the DEC decoupling capacitor. C5 improves with a few dB the input common mode performance only for frequencies below 100MHz. * C4, C8 the VCC decoupling capacitors. The LT5554 has VCC internal voltage regulators and HF decoupling. 9 QUICK START GUIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT 1150A BROADBAND ULTRA LOW DISTORTION 7-BIT DIGITALLY CONTROLLED VGA QUICK START PROCEDURE Table 2 shows the function of each connector and turret and figure 4 is showed a Full Schematic version of DC1150A board. Refer to figure 2 for the connection diagram and figure 3 for the standard DC1150A board schematic and follow the procedure below for evaluation with a single 5V power supply: * Connect the VCC and VCCO to the 5V power supply. * Connect the ENABLE and MODE to the 5V power supply to enable the LT5554. * Connect the VPG to the 5V power supply to set the LT5554 VGA in Maximum Gain state. Alter- natively, VPG connected to GROUND will set the Minimum Gain state. * * * The LT5554 gain can be changed from Gmax or Gmin according to a binary code by connecting any PGx (x=0,2, .. 6) to 5V respectively 0V. PG0 controls the LSB 0.125dB gain step while PG6 change the MSB 8dB gain step. Apply an input signal to J1. The input is impedance-matched to 50. Observe the output via J3. The output is impedance-matched to 50, suitable for the input of a network or a spectrum analyzer. 10 QUICK START GUIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT 1150A BROADBAND ULTRA LOW DISTORTION 7-BIT DIGITALLY CONTROLLED VGA 11 VCCO VCC +5V E6 pg1 pg4 VCC 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 2 C20 5 2.7pF 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 C2 0 4 VCC ENABLE GND OUTOUT+ GND MODE VCC GND GND DEC IN+ INDEC GND GND 33 U1 LT5554EUH pg6 R6 68.1 mode C8 0.1uF C9 0.1uF C6 47nF GND E15 E14 s trob e pg6 pg5 pg4 pg3 pg2 pg1 R2 0 GND E16 pg0 C18 0.1uF strobe pg0 enabl e 5 TC2-1T pg5 R1 0 J3 1 enable OUT- 4 2 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 GN D ETC1-1-13 MODE R27 0 R28 0 R29 0 R30 0 R31 0 R32 0 R33 0 R34 0 VCC J5 C21 0.1uF 40PINS SMT-TB 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 32 34 36 38 40 3 PG1 GND PG2 PG3 GND PG4 GND GND C5 1uF 3 J1 T2 VCCO C4 0.1uF PG5 GN D PG6 PG0 GN D ST R OBE GN D GN D C1 0 T1 1 IN+ R5 68.1 pg3 VDEC C19 4.7uF 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31 33 35 37 39 VDEC E10 C23 0.1uF C22 0.1uF E11 E12 PG1 PG0 C25 0.1uF C24 0.1uF E13 PG2 E3 PG3 C26 0.1uF E4 PG4 0.1uF E5 PG5 STROBE VPG E8 R20 10K R21 10K R22 10K R23 10K R24 10K R25 10K R26 10K FIGURE 3.
