Analog Capture Circuit
The MicroBlaze Development Kit board includes a two-channel analog capture circuit,
consisting of aprogrammable scaling pre-amplifier and an analog-to-digital converter
(ADC), as shown in Figure10-1. Analog inp uts are supplied on the J7 header.
The analog capture circuit consists of a Linear Technology LTC6912-1 programmable pre-
amplifier that scales the incoming analog signal on header J7 (see Figure 10-2). The output
of pre-amplifier connects to a Linear Technology LTC1407A-1 ADC. Both the pre-amplifier
and the ADC are serially programmed or controlled by the FPGA.
