9 Applications and Implementation

9.1 Application Information

The AMC7832 device is a highly integrated, low-power, complete analog monitoring and control solution. Although the device can be used in many different systems -- Industrial Control, Test and Measurement, and Optical Communications -- the device is largely used in multi-channel RF communication driven applications which incorporate power amplifiers.

Power amplifiers (PAs) include transistor technologies that are extremely temperature sensitive, and require DC biasing circuits to optimize RF performance, power efficiency, and stability. The AMC7832 device provides 12 DAC channels, which can be used to bias the inputs of the power amplifiers. The device also includes an internal local temperature sensor, and 17 ADC channels for general-purpose monitoring.

There are mainly two different types of monitoring schemes: current sensing, and temperature sensing. In the current-sense application the PA drain current is monitored by measuring the shunt resistor’s differential voltage drop. The devices internal local temperature sensor and analog inputs – which can be configured for remote temperature ICs or thermistors – can be used to detect temperature variations during PA operation. Figure 57 shows the block diagrams to these different systems.

9.2.3 Detailed Design Procedure

The following displays a set of parameters and concepts that will facilitate the design process:

  • AVCC and AVEE voltage values
  • ADC input voltage range
  • DAC Output voltage Ranges
  • Remote temperature applications

9.2.3.1 ADC Input Conditioning

The AMC7832 has a single ADC core that features a multi-channel multiplexer input stage to a successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. The analog inputs are separated into two input classes: bipolar ADC inputs (high-voltage) and unipolar ADC Inputs (low-voltage). The high-voltage analog inputs (ADC_0 – ADC_11) feature a -12.5-V to +12.5-V input range, while the low-voltage analog inputs (LV_ADC12 – LV_ADC16) accept a full-scale range of 0 to 2 x VREF (VREF corresponds to a +2.5-V internal reference to the ADC block, and is externally available on the REF_CMP pin). For additional noise filtering, a 4.7-µF capacitor is recommended between the REF_CMP and GND. The value of this cap must exceed 470nF to ensure reference stability. A high-quality ceramic type NP0 or X7R is recommended for its optimal performance across temperature, and very low dissipation factor.

During conversion the input current per channel will vary with the total update time which is determined by the number and type of channels (NCH) and the conversion rate setting CONV-RATE in the ADC Configuration register (address 0x10). This information is displayed in Table 55.

Equation 5. EQ_ADC_in_las836.gif

Where:

CIN: Internal ADC input channel capacitance

ΔV : The maximum voltage difference between analog inputs

FS = f(CONVRATE, NCHBIPOLAR, NCHUNIPOLAR) = 1/TS

The total update time (TS) can be determined from Table 55.

Table 55. ADC Update Time per Input Channel

CONV-RATE[1:0] TS (μs) / CHANNEL
UNIPOLAR INPUT CHANNEL 		TS (μs) / CHANNEL
BIPOLAR INPUT CHANNEL 		TS (μs)
TEMPERATURE SENSOR CHANNEL
00 11.5 34.5 256
01 23 34.5 256
10 34.5 34.5 256
11 69 69 256

To reduce DC error in sampling, it is recommended to decrease the ADC input impedance and reduce any input capacitance to ground. Increasing the input capacitance essentially increases CIN, and therefore increases the required amount of input current (IIN).

In applications where the signal source has high impedance, it is recommended that the analog input is buffered before applying to the ADC channel.

Special care must be taken when biasing the two input classes, as both classes have different voltages – with respect to GND – that they cannot exceed. These voltage values are located in Absolute Maximum Ratings.

9.2.3.2 DAC Output Range Selection

The AMC7832 contains 12 DACs that are arranged by different DAC banks, where each channel within a bank shares a common programmable voltage range. Each DAC bank is fully programmable with up to three different voltage ranges: -10 to 0-V, 0 to +10-V, and 0 to +5-V. The VRANGE terminals combined with the DAC configuration register sets the different DAC voltage ranges.

The output buffer is capable of generating rail-to rail voltages on its output, giving an output range of AVSS to AVCC. The maximum source and sink capability of this internal amplifier is listed in the Electrical Characteristics DAC Output Characteristics.

The graphs listed in the Application plots section illustrate the relationship of both stability and settling time with different capacitive and resistive loading structures.

9.2.3.3 Temperature Sensing Applications

The AMC7832 contains one local temperature and 5 low-voltage unipolar channels that are easily configurable to remote temperature sensor circuits. The integrated temperature sensor and analog input registers automatically update with every conversion. An example of a remote temperature sensor connection is displayed in Figure 59.

The temperature sensor described is a LM50, a high precision integrated-circuit temperature sensor that can sense a -40°C to +125°C temperature range using a single positive supply. The full-scale output of the temperature sensor ranges from +100mV to +1.75V for a -40°C to +125°C temperature range. In an extremely noisy environment it may be necessary to add some filtering to minimize noise pickup. A typical recommended value for the bypass capacitor is 0.1µF from V+ to GND. A high-quality ceramic type NP0 or X7R is recommended for its optimal performance across temperature, and very low dissipation factor.
