CDB5560-2
3. HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
3.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings
Observe the following limits to ensure the CDB5560-2 component ratings are not exceeded.
• CS5560
– The absolute maximum supply voltage that can be applied to the +3.3V power supply
connection is +3.6V.
– The absolute maximum power supply voltage that can be applied between pins VL and V1-
is 6.1 V.
• CS3004
– The absolute maximum power supply voltage that can be applied between the +2.5V and
-2.5V power supply connections is +5.5V.

Important: It is recommended that all power supplies be isolated from utility ground to prevent the intro-
duction of a ground loop. One ground connection may already exist through the serial port connection to
utility ground. Using the Cirrus Logic CapturePlus II system simplifies making connections to the
CDB5560-2 by providing electrical isolation between the two.
Using twisted/shielded wire will reduce electrical noise induced onto the power supply cables.
Power supplies are to be adequately regulated and sufficiently low noise to meet the application require-
ments.

There is one analog input channel on the evaluation board. The analog input channel consists of two low-
noise amplifiers configured as unity gain non-inverting buffers. The buffers utilize a Cirrus Logic CS3004
precision, low-noise, low-voltage, dual op-amp These op-amps enable both the inputs and outputs of the
analog input buffer to operate virtually rail to rail. The channel input impedance is 50 Ohms.
For detailed information on the CS3004 precision industrial op-amps, please reference data sheet DS719
