  • Page 26: Analog To Digital Conversion

    analoG to diGital converSion Analog to digital conversion A/d of TRION-2402 series Any TRION-2402 series module uses up to 8 delta-sigma A/D converters. If you sample with a data rate of 102.4 kS/s, the ADC actually samples the input signal with 13.1072 MS/s (multiply the data rate with 128) and produces 1-bit sam- ples which are applied to the digital filter.
  • Page 27 analoG to diGital converSion TRION board automatically selects the best suitable filter. The analog sampling rate of a sigma delta converter is much higher than the data output rate. This is called oversampling. That is why in contrast to a traditional anti aliasing filter the cut-off frequency of this analog filter could be very high.

    analoG to diGital converSion A/d conversion of TRION(3)-18xx-MULTI series The TRION(3)-18xx-MULTI series utilizes one 18-bit 5 MS/s ultra-low noise successive approximation ADC per channel. This allows measuring a signal bandwidth of up to 2 MHz with very low noise and excellent accuracy. By using frequen- cy compensated analog amplifiers, the TRION(3)-18xx-MULTI series can keep the phase shift between the channels very low.
  • Page 30: Filtering

    analoG to diGital converSion Filtering The TRION(3)-18xx-MULTI series uses a combination of an analog and a digital filter. Whenever the user selects a filter, the card sets up both of them. The advantage of an IIR filter in comparison to an analog filter is, that they do not have any component related tolerances.
  • Page 31: Aliasing Protection

    As mentioned in the filtering section, in the oversampling mode the IIR filter is used as an anti-aliasing filter. When using the TRION(3)-18xx-MUTLI series, DEWETRON recommends setting up the sample rate at least 3 times higher than the bandwidth of interest. Therefore the auto selected filter is usually 30 % of the sample rate. In case of 8 order Butterworth filter, this gives a stop-band attenuation of 60 dB (0.1 % of the input signal).

    As mentioned in the filtering section, in the oversampling mode the IIR filter is used as an anti-aliasing filter. When using the TRION-16xx series, DEWETRON recommends setting up the sample rate at least 3 times higher than the bandwidth of interest.

Termination CAN_H and CAN_L are transmission lines. If the transmission line is not terminated, each signal line causes reflections which can cause communication failures therefore both ends of the cable have to be terminated.
  • Page 207: Termination

    trion-can Termination Each device on the low-speed CAN network needs a termination for each transmission line: RTH for CAN_H and RTL for CAN_L. This configuration allows the SNHVD235 transceiver to recover from bus faults. Be- fore connecting the TRION-CAN module to a low-speed / fault-tolerant network it is important to determine the overall termination.

While measuring the SNR and SFDR a short circuit is placed at the channel of testing.

    The SFDR can also be measured as the highest spur with a short circuit on the input channel. This method, as used by DEWETRON, automatically excludes all harmonics and defines the SFDR as the highest spur seen in the FFT chart, excluding the DC component, as shown in Fig. 206.
