CDB5460
PART I: HARDWARE
Introduction
The CDB5460 evaluation board provides a quick
means of evaluating the CS5460 Analog-to-Digital
Converters (ADCs) and Computational Unit. The
CDB5460 evaluation board’s analog section operates from either a single +5 V or dual ±2.5 V power
supply. The evaluation board interfaces the
CS5460 to an IBMTM compatible PC via an RS232 interface. To accomplish this, the board comes
equipped with an 80C51 microcontroller and a 9pin RS-232 cable which physically interfaces the
evaluation board to the PC. Additionally, analysis
software provides easy access to the internal registers of the CS5460, and provides a means to display
the performance in the time domain or frequency
domain.
Evaluation Board Overview
The 3 dB corner of the filter is approximately 50K
Hz differential and common mode.
The evaluation board provides three voltage reference options, on-chip, on-board and external, as
shown in Figure 2. Table 1 illustrates the options
available. With HDR4’s jumpers in position REFOUT, the on-chip reference provides 2.5 volts.
With HDR4’s jumpers in position LT1019, the
LT1019 provides 2.5 volts (the LT1019 was chosen
for its low drift, typically 5ppm/°C). By setting
HDR4’s jumpers to position REF+, the user can
supply an external voltage reference to J2’s REF+
and VA- inputs. Application Note 4 on the web
(http://www.cirrus.com/products//pubs.html) details various voltage references.

The board is partitioned into two main sections: analog and digital. The analog section consists of the
CS5460 and a precision voltage reference. The digital section consists of the 80C51 microcontroller,
32 Kilobytes of SRAM, the hardware test switches,
the reset circuitry, and the RS-232 interface. The
board also has a user friendly power supply connection.
Analog Section
The CS5460 is designed to accurately measure and
calculate: Energy, Instantaneous Power, I
V
while operating from a 4.096 MHz crystal.
RMS
As shown in Figure 1 there are four BNC connectors (J9, J10, J11, J12) provided for converter input
connections. A Shunt Sensor or Current Trans-
former can be connected to the conver ter’s curr ent
inputs via J10 (IIN+) and J9 (IIN-). A voltage divider can be connected to the converter’s voltage
input via J12 (VIN+) and (J11) (VIN-). Note, a
simple RC network filters the sensor’s output to reduce any interference picked up by the input leads.

The CS5460 serial interfaces are SPITM and MicrowireTM compatible. The interface control lines
(CS, SDI, SDO, and SCLK) are connected to the
80C51 microcontroller via port one. To interface an
external microcontroller, these control lines are
also connected to HDR6 (Header 6). However to
accomplish this, the evaluation board must be modified in one of three ways: 1) cut the interface control traces going to the microcontroller, 2) remove
resistors R4, R7, R8, and R13, or 3) remove the microcontroller.
