MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3 Kit. DS51673A-page 5 MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3 User's Guide 1.3 MICROCHIP'S WEB-BASED MINDITM ANALOG SIMULATOR TOOL The MindiTM Analog Simulator tool is an innovative software tool that simplifies analog circuit design. The MindiTM Analog Simulator tool supports the following application circuits: 1) Active Filters, 2) Amplifiers, 3) Battery Chargers, and 4) DC-to-DC Converters. The Amplifier Designer provides full schematic diagrams of the amplifier application circuit with recommended component values and displays the responses in frequency and time domains. The MindiTM Analog Simulator tool is a free web-based design tool available on the Microchip web site at http://www.microchip.com under "Online Simulation Tools" or by going directly to the Mindi web site at http://www.microchip.com/mindi. The circuit simulator within the MindiTM Analog Simulator tool can be downloaded and installed on a personal computer (PC) for more convenient simulations. Modified circuit files can also be downloaded to the PC. 1.4 MCP6XXX AMPLIFIER EVALUATION BOARD 3 DESCRIPTION MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3 is intended to support the difference amplifier circuits which are generated by the MindiTM Amplifier Designer. The MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3 has the following features: * All amplifier resistors and capacitors are socketed * All of the component labels on board keep consistent with those on schematic generated in the MindiTM Amplifier Designer * Supports all Microchip single op amps - PDIP-8 package (e.g., MCP6021) are socketed - SOIC-8 package can be accomodated; see Section 2.4.3 "Amplifier Modifications Using 8-Pin SOIC Op Amps" * Test points for connecting lab equipment * Single supply configuration Figure 1-2 shows the block diagram of the MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3. Lab equipment can be attached (via test points) to measure the amplifier response.

DS51673A-page 7 MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3 User's Guide The power supply voltage needs to be in the allowed range for the installed op amps. Any of Microchip's op amps that operate below 5.5V can be used. Moreover, the power supply is protected by a zener diode with nominal voltage 6.2V and bypassed by a 1.0 F capacitor. (See Figure 2-3: "Power Supply Block.") The mid-supply reference consists of a voltage divider and a buffer amplifier. (See Figure 2-4: "Mid-Supply Reference Block.") The resistors that are part of an amplifier are placed in pin sockets which are labeled. All of the component labels on board keep consistent with those on the schematic generated in the MindiTM Amplifier Designer. The op amps are bypassed by 0.1 F capacitors and the single op amp U1 can have either a PDIP-8 or SOIC-8 package. * PDIP-8 packages are inserted into the DIP-8 socket to the right of the U1 label * SOIC-8 packages can be accommodated; see Section 2.4.3 "Amplifier Modifications Using 8-Pin SOIC Op Amps" The (surface mount) test points for power supply, ground, input signal and output signal allow lab equipment to be connected to the board.

Figure 2-19 shows a SOIC-8 op amp and a DIP-8 socket, soldered onto the 8-Pin SOIC/MSOP/TSSOP/DIP Evaluation Board available from Microchip Technology Inc. (order # SOIC8EV). The two interconnect strips on the bottom are Samtec part # BBS-14-T-B or equivalent and are soldered into the through holes for the DIP-8 socket. Figure 2-20 shows this board plugged into the MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3. Note: (c) 2007 Microchip Technology Inc. Insert the interconnect strips into the DIP-8 socket on the MCP6XXX Amplifier Evaluation Board 3. Place the SOIC8EV board on the top of the interconnect strips with the same pin orientation. Now solder the strips to the top board; this procedure ensures correct alignment of the strips. Clip the pins flush with the top surface of the SOIC8EV board, then solder the SOIC-8 op amp on the top.
