GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9058 combines two independent, high performance,
8-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) on a single monolithic
IC. Combined with an optional on-board voltage reference,
the AD9058 provides a cost-effective alternative for systems
requiring two or more ADCs.
Dynamic performance (SNR, ENOB) is optimized to provide
up to 50 MSPS conversion rates. The unique architecture
results in low input capacitance while maintaining high performance and low power (<0.5 W/channel). Digital inputs
and outputs are TTL compatible.
Performance has been optimized for an analog input of 2 V p-p
(±1 V; 0 V to 2 V). Using the on-board 2 V voltage reference,
the AD9058 can be set up for unipolar positive operation
(0 V to 2 V). This internal voltage reference can drive
both ADCs.
Commercial (0°C to 70°C) and military (–55°C to +125°C)
temperature range parts are available. Parts are supplied in
hermetic 48-lead DIP and 44-lead “J” lead packages.

AD9058
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9058 contains two separate 8-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) on a single silicon die. The two devices can be
operated independently with separate analog inputs, voltage
references, and clocks.
In a traditional flash converter, 256 input comparators are required
to make the parallel conversion for 8-bit resolution. This is in
marked contrast to the scheme used in the AD9058, as shown
in Figure 1.
Unlike traditional “flash,” or parallel, converters, each of the two
ADCs in the AD9058 utilizes a patented interpolating architecture to reduce circuit complexity, die size, and input capacitance.
These advantages accrue because, compared to a conventional
flash design, only half the normal number of input comparator
cells is required to accomplish the conversion.
In this unit, each of the two independent ADCs uses only 128 (2
7
)
comparators to make the conversion. The conversion for the
seven most significant bits (MSBs) is performed by the 128
comparators. The value of the least significant bit (LSB) is
determined by interpolation between adjacent comparators in
the decoding register. A proprietary decoding scheme processes
the comparator outputs and provides an 8-bit code to the output
register of each ADC; the scheme also minimizes error codes.

operate from 0 V to 2 V using the internal voltage reference,
or anywhere between –1 V and +2 V using external references.
Input range is limited to 2 V p-p when using external references.
The internal resistor ladder divides the applied voltage reference
into 128 steps, with each step representing two 8-bit quantization levels.

Figure 3. AD9058 Using External Voltage References
The on-board voltage reference, +V
, is a band gap reference
INT
that has sufficient drive capability for both reference ladders.
It provides a 2 V reference that can drive both ADCs in the
AD9058 for unipolar positive operation (0 V to 2 V).
USING THE AD9058
Refer to Figure 2. Using the internal voltage reference connected to both ADCs as shown reduces the number of external
components required to create a complete data acquisition
system. The input ranges of the ADCs are positive unipolar
in this configuration, ranging from 0 V to 2 V. Bipolar input
signals are buffered, amplified, and offset into the proper input
range of the ADC using a good low distortion amplifier such
as the AD9617 or AD9618.
The AD9058 offers considerable flexibility in selecting the analog
input ranges of the ADCs; the two independent ADCs can even
have different input ranges if required. In Figure 3, the AD9058
is shown configured for ±1 V operation.
The “Reference Ladder Offset” shown in the specifications table
refers to the error between the voltage applied to the +V
or –V
(bottom) of the reference ladder and the voltage required
REF
REF
(top)
at the analog input to achieve a 1111 1111 or 0000 0000 transition. This indicates the amount of adjustment range that must be
designed into the reference circuit for the AD9058.
The diode shown between ground and –V
is normally reverse-
S
biased and is used to prevent latch-up. Its use is recommended
for applications in which power supply sequencing might allow
to be applied before –VS; or the +VS supply is not current

limited. If the negative supply is allowed to float (the +5 V supply
is powered up before the –5 V supply), substantial +5 V supply
current will attempt to flow through the substrate (V
supply con-
S
tact) to ground. If this current is not limited to <500 mA, the part
may be destroyed. The diode prevents this potentially destructive
condition from occurring.
Timing
Refer to the AD9058 Timing Diagram, Figure 4. The AD9058
provides latched data outputs with no pipeline delay. To conserve
power, the data outputs have relatively slow rise and fall times.
When designing system timing, it is important to observe (1) setup
and hold times; and (2) the intervals when data is changing.
Figure 3 shows 2 kΩ pull-down resistors on each of the D
0–D7
output data bits. When operating at conversion rates higher than
40 MSPS, these resistors help equalize rise and fall times and
ease latching the output data into external latches. The 74ACT
logic family devices have short setup and hold times and are the
recommended choices for speeds of 40 MSPS or more.
Layout
To ensure optimum performance, a single low impedance ground
plane is recommended. Analog and digital grounds should be connected together and to the ground plane at the AD9058 device.
Analog and digital power supplies should be bypassed to ground
through 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors as close to the unit as possible.
For prototyping or evaluation, surface-mount sockets are available
from Methode Electronics, Inc. (Part No. 213-0320602) for
evaluating AD9058 surface-mount packages. To evaluate the
AD9058
AD9058 in through-hole PCB designs, use the AD9058AJD/AKD
with individual pin sockets (AMP Part No. 6-330808-0). Alternatively, surface-mount AD9058 units can be mounted in a
through-hole socket (Circuit Assembly Corporation, Irvine, California Part No. CA-44SPC-T).
AD9058 APPLICATIONS
Combining two ADCs in a single package is an attractive alternative in a variety of systems when cost, reliability, and space are
important considerations. Different systems emphasize particular
specifications, depending on how the part is used.
In high density digital radio communications, a pair of high
speed ADCs are used to digitize the in-phase (I) and quadrature
(Q) components of a modulated signal. The signal presented to
each ADC in this type of system consists of message-dependent
amplitudes varying at the symbol rate, which is equal to the
sample rates of the converters.

Figure 5 shows what the analog input to the AD9058 would
look like when observed relative to the sample clock. Signal-tonoise ratio (SNR), transient response, and sample rate are all
critical specifications in digitizing this “eye pattern.”
the time required for the AD9058 to achieve full accuracy when
a step function input is applied. Overvoltage recovery time is the
interval required for the AD9058 to recover to full accuracy after an
overdriven analog input signal is reduced to its input range.
Time domain performance of the ADC is also extremely important
in digital oscilloscopes. When a track-/sample-and-hold is used
ahead of the ADC, its operation becomes similar to that described
above for receivers.
The dynamic response to high frequency inputs can be described by
the effective number of bits (ENOB). The effective number of
bits is calculated with a sine wave curve fit and is expressed as:
ENOBNLOG Error measured Error ideal=−
2
()()
[]
where N is the resolution (number of bits) and measured error is
actual rms error calculated from the converter’s outputs with
a pure sine wave applied as the input.
Maximum conversion rate is defined as the encode (sample)
rate at which SNR of the lowest frequency analog test signal
drops no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit.

Receiver sensitivity is limited by the SNR of the system. For the
ADC, SNR is measured in the frequency domain and calculated
with a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The signal-to-noise ratio
equals the ratio of the fundamental component of the signal
(rms amplitude) to the rms level of the noise. Noise is the sum
of all other spectral components, including harmonic distortion,
but excluding dc.
Although the signal being sampled does not have a significant
slew rate at the instant it is encoded, dynamic performance of
the ADC and the system is still critical. Transient response is
