OPERA TING PRINCIPL ES
DC1063 simpl inserts LT6559 ampl ier stages in series
y
if
w ith the Red,Green,and Bl video signal ofa standard
ue
s
High-Density 15-contact D-subminature PC monitor
connection (“VGA” port). Al other standard connections
l
are passed-through to alow normal monitor operation,
l
as show n in the schematic diagram in Figure 5.
The ampl ier sections terminate the incoming signalinto
if
75Ω, then ac-coupl to the non-inverting input of each
e
ampl ier w ith a 22µF capacitor. DC biasing of the
if
ac-coupl signal is provided by resistor dividers that
ed
s
nominaly divide the suppl vol
l
y tage in hal. Gain of each
f
section is set to tw o by equal ue f
-val eedback resistors
(ac-coupl so that dc gain is unity f biasing
ed
or
1
LT6559
purposes). The sel
ection of f
eedback resistor val is
ue
important to optimize the f
requency response, since the
LT6559 is a current-f
eedback topol
ogy op-amp. The
ampl ier outputs are then back-terminated in 75Ω and
if
ac-coupl via 220µF capacitors to the video cabl
ed
e
connection. The back-terminations inherentl f
y orm a 2:
1
vol
tage division at the destination l
oads, theref the
ore
overal video insertion gain of the DC1063 is unity. This
l
means that pl

ine
monitor connection w il resul in onl introducing
l

In PC appl

coupl
ing as used on the DC1063, varying picture
conditions can expand the dynamic operational range to
approximatel 1.2V

range is readil handl by the LT6559 on a singl 5V

NOTE.
Due to the Ul High Frequencies (UHF) invol RF measurement
tra
ved,
practices are required to accuratel instrument the perf
y
ormance ofthe
LT6559.
2.
W hil disconnected f
e
rom the DC1063, set a pow er
suppl to 5V (or other vol
y
tage up to 12V, if desired),
then de-energize.
3.
Instal DC1063 into PC monitor port. J1, the l t-side
l
ef
connector (w ith pins) is the side to connect to the PC.
A “VGA” extender cabl may be used if circumstances
e
don’ permit convenient instalation ofDC1063 directl
t
l
y
to the PC (note that such a cabl may induce subtl
e
e
settl anomal in an osciloscope presentation that
ing
ies
l
are unrel
ated to the perf
ormance ofthe LT6559).

5.
Connect the video monitor cabl to J2. J2 is the right-

6.
Pow er up the DC1063 pow er source. A normal video
