DC2611A RECONFIGURATION

The following covers the hardware reconfiguration of the 

DC2611A. Refer to LTC6955 data sheet for a better under-

standing of device specific considerations.

Power Supply Options

Table 2 provides the power supply options for DC2611A. 

By default the DC2611A is setup to use the single supply 

option. However, a dual supply option is available to power 

the higher current supply from our Silent Switcher, such 

as the LT8609S. The Silent Switcher improves the power 

efficiency over the low noise LDO. A spurious free supply, 

such as a low noise LDO, is required on the LTC6955’s 

V

 supply pin.

Input Termination Options

Table 3 provides the single-ended and differential input 

termination options. By default the DC2611A is setup for 

a single-ended input on the IN– SMA (J25). For best per-

formance different termination networks are provided for 

input signals <5GHz and input signals >5GHz.

LTC6955-1 Divide by Two Coupling Spur

To help reduce the LTC6955-1’s OUT10 /2 coupling spur 

to other outputs a ferrite bead (FB1) should be installed 

on the OUT10 supply pin, VOUT+ (Pin 5). For the LTC6955 

FB1 should be a 0Ω resistor.

CML Outputs, OUT[10:0]

The DC2611A has 11 CML outputs. Six of these outputs 

are AC-coupled and brought out to SMAs (OUT10, OUT8, 

OUT6, OUT4, OUT1 or OUT0). To drive 50Ω impedance 

instruments connect OUTx+ to the instrument and OUTx– 

to a 50Ω termination, or vice versa.
The remaining five outputs (OUT9, OUT7, OUT5, OUT3, 

and OUT2) are terminated with a 100Ω resistor on board. 

To connect these outputs to a 50Ω instrument, remove 

the 100Ω termination, and install the appropriate SMAs 

and AC blocking capacitors.
Refer to LTC6955 data sheet for differential termination 

options.

Alternate Configuration Options

To take advantage of the LTC6955’s maximum output 

frequency and ultralow output additive phase noise, 

the  DC2611A (LTC6955,  LTC6955-1), the DC2609A 

(LTC6952) and the VCO rider board (DC2664A) were 

designed to mate directly together, as shown in Figure 2

This setup allows for options to lock the LTC6952 refer-

ence input to:
A) A <7.5GHz VCO and LTC6955-1 output frequency, by 

utilizing the LTC6955-1 divide by two output on OUT10 

to drive the LTC6952 VCO input. (refer to Figure 2)

B) Any VCO and create lower jitter clocks from a LTC6955 

or  LTC6955-1 output than a standalone LTC6952 

produces.

Refer to the LTC6952 and LTC6955 data sheet’s typical 

application for measured results. Refer to the DC2664A 

demo manual for recommendation on loop filter compo-

nent placement.
