1 Product Description The TAMC900-A1 is a simple Signal Conditioning Adapter (SiCA) providing I/O-connectors for the analog inputs, clock and trigger inputs and the analog signal conditioning. All inputs are differential. The signal conditioning consists of a differential amplifier with gain=1 and a low pass filter to suppress high frequency noise.
If FIT rates are not available, MIL-HDBK-217F and MIL-HDBK-217F Notice 2 formulas are used for FIT rate calculation. 5 – 95 % non-condensing Humidity 50 g Weight Table 2-1 : Technical Specification TAMC900-A1 User Manual Issue 1.0.2 Page 7 of 17...
3 Handling and Operating Instructions 3.1 ESD Protection The TAMC900-A1 is sensitive to static electricity. Packing, unpacking and all other handling of the TAMC900-A1 has to be done in an ESD/EOS protected area. 3.2 Maximum Input Voltage The maximum input voltage of the Clock and Trigger inputs is 2.5 Volt.
4 Analog Inputs The TAMC900-A1 provides access to the analog inputs of the eight ADCs of the TAMC900. As signal conditioning, it provides a differential amplifier with Gain = 1 for each analog input. The figure below shows one analog input path of the TAMC900-A1.
4.2 Single Ended Signal Source If a single ended signal source is used, it can be connected to the TAMC900-A1 in the following way: 3.3 Volt ANALOG_IN- LTC6404 LTC2254 ANALOG_IN+ Single Ended TAMC900-A1 Signal Source (TAMC900) Figure 4-2 : Single Ended Signal Source In the above configuration, ANALOG_IN- should not exceed ±1.0 Volt (ADC input voltage range).
The Clock Inputs are directly routed to the TAMC900. The maximum input voltage of the corresponding Virtex-5 I/Os is 2.5 Volt. The device will be damaged if higher voltage levels are used. TAMC900-A1 User Manual Issue 1.0.2 Page 11 of 17...
The Trigger Inputs are directly routed to the TAMC900. The maximum input voltage of the corresponding Virtex-5 I/Os is 2.5 Volt. The device will be damaged if higher voltage levels are used. TAMC900-A1 User Manual Issue 1.0.2 Page 12 of 17...
The Samtec QTE / QSE Series are used as I/O connection between TAMC900 and the SiCA. The TAMC900 carries a QSE connector, and the mating QTE connector is populated on the SiCA. The stacking height is defined by the QTE connector on the SiCA. TAMC900-A1 User Manual Issue 1.0.2 Page 15 of 17...
