TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
If the red LED (D1) does not illuminate:
1. Ensure LTC6953 input signal is at the LTC6953 IN
–
pin.
2. In LTC6952Wizard’s System tab click ‘Read All’.
LTC6952Wizard should match Figure 3. If not, see ‘Verify
DC2610A and LTC6952Wizard Communication’
Verify DC2610A and LTC6952Wizard Communication:
To verify communication with the DC2610A. The bottom
status line in LTC6952Wizard should read “LTC6953”and
“Comm Enabled”as shown in Figure 3. If not, then per-
form the following steps:
1. Ensure the DC2026 is connected to PC
2. Disconnect and Reconnect DC2026 to PC
3. Ensure DC2026 is connected to DC2610A
4. Close LTC6952Wizard and restart
5. Verify the DC2026 has the DC590B Emulator sketch
loaded by contacting the factory or following these
steps.
a. Download QuickEval™ at
http://www.linear.com/designtools/software/#Data
b. Run QuickEval (Linduino connected to the PC)
If QuickEval does not find a DC590B, reload the DC590
Linduino sketch. To use the LTSketchbook refer to the Lin-
duino QuickStart tab at http://www.linear.com/solutions/
linduino for instructions on how to start using Linduino.
If DC2610A performance is less than the LTC6953 data
sheet specifications:
1. For unexpected spurious response, verify power sup-
plies are low noise and spurious free power supplies.
Power supplies that are based off a switching regulator
architecture are known to generate spurs on low jitter
clock outputs.
2. For poor phase noise results, verify the phase noise
specifications of the input signal and the phase noise
measurement instrument. Traditional signal sources
and spectrum analyzers have higher phase noise than
the LTC6953 and will degrade measurement results.
To measure phase noise performance it is recom-
mended to use a low jitter oscillator and a signal source
analyzer, such as Keysight’s (previously Agilent/HP)
E5052.
3. Contact the factory for further troubleshooting.

DC2610A RECONFIGURATION
The following covers the hardware reconfiguration of the
DC2610A. Refer to LTC6952Wizard and the LTC6953 data
sheet to better understand how to change programmed
parameters on the DC2610A.
POWER SUPPLY OPTIONS
Table 1 provides the power supply options for DC2610A.
By default the DC2610A is setup to use the single supply
option. However, a dual supply option is available to power
the higher current supply from an LTC Silent Switcher,
such as the LT8609S. The LTC Silent Switcher improves
the power efficiency over the low noise LDO. A low noise
LDO is required on the LTC6953’s VIN+supply pin.

LTC6953 6952SET FILES
The LTC6952Wizard provides a 6952set file for all
LTC6953 data sheet application examples and typical
application circuits. After loading a 6952set file a pop-up
window will detail any user actions and board modifica-
tions required for the selected file.
SYNC OPTIONS
The LTC6953 data sheet describes several synchroniza-
tion modes. After selecting the desired synchronization
mode, refer to Table 3 to identify the required DC2610A
board modifications. Refer to the LTC6953 data sheet for
SYNC timing and level requirements.
CML OUTPUTS, OUT[10:0]
The DC2610A has 11 CML outputs. Seven of these out-
puts are AC-coupled and brought out to SMAs (OUT10,
OUT9, OUT8, OUT5, OUT4, OUT1, and OUT0). To drive
50Ω impedance instruments connect OUTx+to the instru-
ment and OUTx–to a 50Ω termination, or vice versa.
The remaining four outputs (OUT7, OUT6, OUT3, and
OUT2) are terminated with a 100Ω resistor on board. To
connect these outputs to a 50Ω instrument, remove the
100Ω termination, and install the appropriate SMAs and
AC blocking capacitors.

Note: The buffers shown on sheet 2 of 2 of the schematic are used to protect the LTC6953 when connected to the DC2026 before the LTC6953 is powered up. There is no need for such circuitry if the SPI bus is not active before powering up the LTC6953. The EEPROM is for identification and is not needed to program the LTC6953.
