DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 2071A features the LTC
The LTC2374/LTC2373/LTC2372 are low noise, high speed,
8-channel, 16-/18-bit successive approximation register
(SAR) ADCs. The following text refers to the
but applies to all parts in the family, the only differences
being the number of bits and the maximum sample rate.
Operating from a single 5V supply, the LTC2373-18 has a
highly configurable, low crosstalk, 8-channel input multi-
plexer, supporting fully differential, pseudo-differential uni-
polar and pseudo-differential bipolar analog input ranges.
The DC2071 demonstrates the DC and AC performance of
the LTC2373-18 in conjunction with the DC590 and DC890
data collection boards. Use the DC590 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 demonstration circuit 2071 is intended to
demonstrate recommended grounding, component place-
ment and selection, routing and bypassing for this ADC.
Several suggested driver circuits for the analog inputs
will be presented.
