DESCRIPTION

LTC6947

Ultralow Noise and Spurious

Fractional-N Synthesizer

Demonstration circuit 1846A features the LT C

6947, an

Ultralow Noise and Spurious Fractional-N Synthesizer.

DC1846A provides 50Ω SMA connectors for the reference

frequency (REF+) and the two single-ended RF outputs

(RF+ and RF–).

L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and

FracNWizard is a trademark of Linear Technology Corporation. All other trademarks are the

DEMO MANUAL DC1846A

QUICK START PROCEDURE

The DC1846A is easy to set up to evaluate the performance

of the LTC6947. Follow the procedure below.

The DC590 and FracNWizard application are required to

control the DC1846A through a personal computer (PC).

DC590 Configuration

Place the DC590 jumpers in the following positions (refer

to Figure 2):

JP4: EE – Must be in the EN position.

JP5: ISO – ON must be selected.

JP5: SW – ON must be selected.

JP6: VCCIO – 3.3V must be selected. This sets the SPI

port to 3.3V operation.

Connect the DC590 to one of your computer’s USB ports

with the included USB cable.

FracNWizard Installation

The FracNWizard software is used to communicate with

the LTC6947 synthesizer. It uses the DC590 to translate

between USB and SPI-compatible serial communica-

tions formats. It also includes advanced PLL design and

simulation capabilities. The following are the FracNWizard

system requirements:

• Windows Operating System: Windows XP, Windows

2003 Server, Windows Vista, Windows 7

• Microsoft .NET 3.5 SP1 or later

• Windows Installer 3.1 or later

• Linear Technology’s DC590 hardware

QUICK START PROCEDURE

Download the FracNWizard setup file at:

www.linear.com/FracNWizard

Run the FracNWizard setup file and follow the instructions

given on the screen. The setup file will verify and/or install

Microsoft .NET and install the FracNWizard. Refer to the

Help menu for software operation.

DC1846A Configuration

1. Connect a 100MHz reference frequency source (at J2)

and signal analyzers to RF+ and/or RF– (at J6 and/or

J7) using the SMA connectors (see Figure 1 and the

Typical DC1846A Requirements and Characteristics

table).

Be sure to terminate any unused RF output with 50Ω, or

poor spurious performance may result.

2. Choose the MUTE jumper setting:

JP1: GND/3.3V - MUTE position. Select GND to mute

the RF output, 3.3V to unmute.

3. Connect the GND, 3.3V, 5V banana jacks and the

V+VCO turret to a power supply and apply power (see

Figure 1 and the Typical DC1846A Requirements and

Characteristics table).

4. Connect the DC590 to the DC1846A with the provided

ribbon cable.

5. Run the FracNWizard application.

6. In FracNWizard, click File -> Load Settings and point

to the “LTC6947_100MHz.fracnset” file.

The red LED on the DC1846A should turn on indicating

that the loop is locked at 2415MHz.

Troubleshooting

If the red LED does not illuminate, follow the instructions

below:

1. Verify that you are able to communicate with the

DC1846A. The bottom status line in FracNWizard

should read “LTC6947” and “Comm Enabled”. Refer

to FracNWizard’s Troubleshoot and Help if not.

2. Verify that the 3.3V, 5V and V+VCO have the correct

voltages on them and that the reference frequency is

applied to the REF+ SMA input.

If the red LED is on but you cannot detect an RF output,

make sure the DC1846A jumper JP1 is at the 3.3V position.

Run Help -> Troubleshoot in FracNWizard if the problem

is not resolved.

The DC1846A is flexible and allows the use of a variety of

VCOs and the choice to employ either an active or pas-

sive loop filter. The following covers the hardware recon-

figuration of the DC1846A. Refer to FracNWizard’s Help

and the LTC6947 data sheet to better understand how to

change programmed parameters on the DC1846A.

Installing Different Tunable Devices

The DC1846A permits the use of different tunable oscil-

lators, such as VCOs and VCXOs. There are two different

oscillatorfootprintsontheboard:U3,whichaccommodates

the popular 0.5 ×0.5 in. package, and U4, which accom-

modates another common 14mm ×9 mm package with

four or six pins. An external connectorized VCO can also

drive the LTC6947 through J5. Table 1 gives options to

customize the DC1846’s VCOs. When using an active loop

filter, an additional pole is required in the loop filter to limit

the op amp’s noise contribution to the VCO phase noise.

Selecting Loop Filter Type

The DC1846A can use either an active or a passive loop

filter, depending upon the application. Some VCO tuning

voltage ranges are greater than the LTC6947 charge pump

voltage range (refer to the LTC6947 data sheet). In such

cases, an active loop filter using an op amp can deliver

the required tuning voltage. Table 2 summarizes these

options. FracNWizard helps determine the component

values listed in this table.

**These values are for the “DC1846A_100MHz.fracnset” file and included VCO.

***Any unused RF output must be terminated with 50Ω, or poor spurious performance may result.

Note: A low noise 100MHz reference frequency, such as the Wenzel 501-04516D OCXO, is recommended. If using a

different frequency, make sure to update the Fref and R_DIV boxes under the System tab in FracNWizard so that Fpfd

is still 50MHz. For example, if a 250MHz clock is used, Fref should be changed to 250MHz and R_DIV to 5. Ref BST

and FILT under the System tab in FracNWizard might need to be changed if the reference frequency and/or power is

different than what is recommended in the table above. More information can be found in the LTC6947 data sheet.

SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM

Note: The buffers shown on sheet 2 of 2 of the schematic are used to protect the LTC6947 when connected to the DC590 before the LTC6947 is powered

up. There is no need for such circuitry if the SPI bus is not powered before powering up the LTC6947. The EEPROM is for identification and is not needed

to program the LTC6947.
