DC2403A is a switching amplifier launched by Linear Technology to drive the inputs of DC2290A oscilloscope. The amplifier uses the LT6200 amplifier, which has high linearity and low noise, and can drive the LTC2387 high-speed SAR ADC input at a maximum frequency of 1MHz.
This document provides setup instructions and component details for the DC2403A, a dual LT6200 amplifier board. It is designed to drive the inputs of the DC2290A demo board featuring the LTC2387 ADC at frequencies up to 1MHz. The manual includes a quick start procedure, hardware setup, schematic, and parts list. Safety and usage notes are included, stating the board is for engineering evaluation only and not for commercial use.
The board uses SMA connectors for signal input/output and requires +10V and -5V DC supplies. Components include capacitors, resistors, test points, and integrated circuits such as LT6200 amplifiers and LT1763/1964 regulators. The schematic shows connections to the DC2290A and power supply routing.
