DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1974 supports the LTC
dual ADC family with JESD204B compliant CML outputs.
It was specially designed for applications that require
single-ended AC coupled inputs. The DC1974 supports
the LTC2124,
LTC2123
and
from 310Msps to 170Msps.
The specific ADC characteristics are listed in the DC1974
Variants section. The circuitry on the analog inputs is opti-
mized for analog input frequencies from 5MHz to 400MHz.
