The EVAL-ADL5902-ARDZ shield illustrates the functionality of the ADL5902, a 50 MHz to 9 GHz 65 dB TruPwr™ RMS responding RF power detector. The voltage outputs of the ADL5902 are routed to the ANALOG IN connector of the Arduino base board. This allows the RF power detector’s output voltage to be easily digitized and processed by the Arduino base board’s integrated six-channel ADC. The output of the ADL5902’s on-board temperature sensor is also routed to one of the ANALOG IN pins.

DC2027A-B: Demo Board for the LTC4364 Surge Stopper with Ideal Diode.

Demonstration Circuit 2048A is a nanopower buckboost DC/DC with energy harvesting battery life extender featuring the LTC3330. The LTC3330 integrates a high voltage energy harvesting power supply plus a DC/DC converter powered by a primary cell battery to create a single output supply for alternative energy applications. The energy harvesting power supply, consisting of an integrated low-loss full-wave bridge with a high voltage buck converter, harvests energy from piezoelectric, solar or magnetic sources. The primary cell input powers a buck-boost converter capable of operating down to 1.8V at its input. Either DC/DC converter can deliver energy to a single output.

Demonstration circuit 2350B features the LTC6813-1, 18-channel battery-stack monitor. Multiple boards can be linked through a 2-wire isolated serial interface (isoSPI™) to monitor a long series of cells in a stack. The DC2350B demo board also features reversible isoSPI enabling a redundant communication path. The PCB, components, and DuraClik connectors are optimized for low EMI susceptibility and emissions. The DC2350B can communicate to a PC by connecting a DC2792B dual master isoSPI together with DC2026C Linduino® One. The DC2026 must be loaded with the appropriate program (called a sketch) to control the battery-stack monitor IC and receive data through a USB serial port. The DC2026 provides a standard SPI interface which can be translated to isoSPI and then connected to a DC2350B isoSPI port (J4 or J5 connector). The DC2792B companion board provides two SPI-isoSPI channels for reversible operation.

DC1851A: Demo Board for the LTC2872 RS232/RS485 Dual Multiprotocol Transceiver with Integrated Termination.

The LTC2380/LTC2379/LTC2378/LTC2377/LTC2376 are low power, low noise ADCs with serial outputs that can operate from a single 2.5V supply. The demo manual refers to the LTC2379-18 but applies to all parts in the family, the only difference being the maximum sample rates and the number of bits. The LTC2379-18 supports a ±5V fully differential input range with a 101dB SNR, consumes only 18mW and achieves ±2LSB INL max with no missing codes at 18-bits. The DC1783A demonstrates the DC and AC performance of the LTC2379-18 in conjunction with the DC590 QuikEval™ and DC718 PScope™ data collection boards.

Demonstration circuit 2222A features the LTC®2500-32, LTC2508-32 and LTC2512-24 ADCs. The LTC2500-32, LTC2508-32 and LTC2512-24 are low power, low noise, high speed, 32-bit/24-bit SAR ADCs with an integrated configurable digital averaging filter that operate from a single 2.5V supply. The following text refers to the LTC2508-32 but applies to all parts, the only difference being sample rate and number of bits. The DC2222A demonstrates the DC and AC performance of the LTC2508-32 in conjunction with the DC590 or DC2026 QuikEval™ and DC890 PScope™ data collection boards. Use the DC590 or DC2026 to demonstrate DC performance such as peak-to-peak noise and DC linearity. Use the DC890 if precise sampling rates are required or to demonstrate AC performance such as SNR, THD, SINAD and SFDR. The DC2222A is intended to show recommended grounding, component placement and selection, routing and bypassing for this ADC.

Demonstration circuit 2973A shows the LTC3337 Primary Battery State of Health (SOH) monitor with precision coulomb counter operating with a configurable peak current limit. The LTC3337 supports input voltages from 1.8V to 5.5V and a peak current up to 100mA with a quiescent current of 100nA. Coulomb count, battery voltage, and Battery Series Resistance (BSR) are measurable and can be used to quantify the charge state and health of a battery. The DC2973A demonstrates a simple layout for the highest-power configuration of the LTC3337. The circuit can be reduced for lower IPEAK levels. The demo board can be connected directly to a PC using a micro USB cable in order to run a GUI and configure simple a Battery State of Charge (SOC) monitor. Source code for the GUI is available and can be used as a starting point for LTC3337 firmware development.
