EVAL-LTC6563TQFN-EZKIT

EVAL-LTC6563TQFN-EZKIT demonstration kit features LTC6563 four-channel transimpedance amplifier (TIA) with output multiplexing. This demo kit is shipped along with the SDP-K1 controller board, has 4 installed single APD’s which allows optical testing of the TIA functionality. Electrical testing using an external lab pulse generator, as the input current pulse, is also possible with small board modifications. With its 20Kohm transimpedance gain and 90μA linear input current range, the LTC6563 is ideal for LIDAR receivers using Avalanche Photodiodes (APD). The board utilizes four installed 400-1100nm APD sensors feeding the LTC6563 for current-to-voltage conversion and amplification. The APDs are DC-coupled to the TIAs to facilitate fast output multiplexing and channel switching. Alternatively, with small board modifications, it is possible to electrically excite the LTC6563 using a lab generator tied to SMA connectors provided on the board and voltage-to-current resistors on the board.

• Intended to demonstrate time-domain measurements into 50 ohm systems
