Texas Instruments TLV3605EVM Comparator Evaluation Module (EVM)

Texas Instruments TLV3605EVM Comparator Evaluation Module (EVM) is designed to evaluate the high-speed TLV3605 comparator. The TLV3605EVM has layout options intended to make it simple to evaluate timing performance with different measurement tools. The output of the TLV3605 is designed for low-voltage differential signals (LVDS), which provide high-speed signals to interconnect devices, such as FPGAs with minimal power dissipation. The evaluation module allows the ability to evaluate latch and shutdown performance on the device. It also allows the user to manually adjust the hysteresis on the Texas Instruments TLV3605.

Features

  • Evaluate comparator solution with < 800ns propagation delay
  • Measure LVDS output with multiple measurement methods
  • Sample and latch signals
  • Control shutdown input to the device
  • Adjustable hysteresis

Required Equipment

  • Power Supply
  • SMA Cables/adapters
    • All forced input voltages and signals must have matched cable lengths
      • IN+, IN-, SHUTDOWN, LE/HYST
    • All sensed voltages and signals
      • LE/HYST SENSE, IN+SENSE, IN-SENSE, SHUTDOWN SENSE, OUT+, and OUT-
  • High-Speed Functional Generator with dual outputs
    • Fast rise/fall time recommended (≤ 500ps)
  • High-Speed Oscilloscope with 50Ω terminations
    • Differential probes with built-in 100Ω terminations can be used to terminate the output proper
