Analog Capture Circuit

The Spartan-3E Starter Kit board includes a two-channel analog capture circuit, consisting
of a programmable scaling pre-amplifier and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), as
shown in

Figure 10-1

. Analog inputs are supplied on the J7 header.

The analog capture circuit consists of a Linear Technology LTC6912-1 programmable pre-
amplifier that scales the incoming analog signal on header J7 (see

Figure 10-2

). The output

of pre-amplifier connects to a Linear Technology LTC1407A-1 ADC. Both the pre-amplifier
and the ADC are serially programmed or controlled by the FPGA.
