PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD9224 is a monolithic, single supply, 12-bit, 40 MSPS,
analog-to-digital converter with an on-chip, high performance
sample-and-hold amplifier and voltage reference. The AD9224
uses a multistage differential pipelined architecture with output
error correction logic to provide 12-bit accuracy at 40 MSPS
data rates, and guarantees no missing codes over the full operating temperature range.
The AD9224 combines a low cost high speed CMOS process
and a novel architecture to achieve the resolution and speed of
existing bipolar implementations at a fraction of the power
consumption and cost.
The input of the AD9224 allows for easy interfacing to both
imaging and communications systems. With a truly differential
input structure, the user can select a variety of input ranges and
offsets, including single-ended applications. The dynamic performance is excellent.
The sample-and-hold (SHA) amplifier is well suited for both
multiplexed systems that switch full-scale voltage levels in successive channels and sampling single-channel inputs at frequencies up to and well beyond the Nyquist rate.
The AD9224’s wideband input, combined with the power and
cost savings over previously available monolithics, is suitable for
applications in communications, imaging and medical ultrasound.
The AD9224 has an onboard programmable reference. An
external reference can also be chosen to suit the dc accuracy
and temperature drift requirements of the application.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATION
INTEGRAL NONLINEARITY (INL)
INL refers to the deviation of each individual code from a line
drawn from “negative full scale” through “positive full scale.”
The point used as “negative full scale” occurs 1/2 LSB before
the first code transition. “Positive full scale” is defined as a level
1 1/2 LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation is
measured from the middle of each particular code to the true
straight line.
DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY (DNL, NO MISSING
CODES)
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB
apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. Guaranteed
no missing codes to 12-bit resolution indicates that all 4096
codes, respectively, must be present over all operating ranges.
ZERO ERROR
The major carry transition should occur for an analog value
1/2 LSB below VINA = VINB. Zero error is defined as the
deviation of the actual transition from that point.
GAIN ERROR
The first code transition should occur at an analog value
1/2 LSB above negative full scale. The last transition should
occur at an analog value 1 1/2 LSB below the nominal full scale.
Gain error is the deviation of the actual difference between first
and last code transitions and the ideal difference between first
and last code transitions.
TEMPERATURE DRIFT
The temperature drift for zero error and gain error specifies the
maximum change from the initial (+25°C) value to the value at
T
or T
MIN
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION
MAX
.
The specification shows the maximum change in full scale from
the value with the supply at the minimum limit to the value with
the supply at its maximum limit.
APERTURE JITTER
Aperture jitter is the variation in aperture delay for successive
samples and is manifested as noise on the input to the A/D.
APERTURE DELAY
Aperture delay is a measure of the sample-and-hold amplifier
(SHA) performance and is measured from the rising edge of the
clock input to when the input signal is held for conversion.
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (S/N+D, SINAD)
RATIO
S/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the
Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The
value for S/N+D is expressed in decibels.
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB)
For a sine wave, SINAD can be expressed in terms of the number of bits. Using the following formula,
N = (SINAD – 1.76)/6.02
it is possible to get a measure of performance expressed as N,
the effective number of bits.
Thus, effective number of bits for a device for sine wave inputs
at a given input frequency can be calculated directly from its
measured SINAD.
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic components to the rms value of the measured input signal and is
expressed as a percentage or in decibels.
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal to
the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The value
for SNR is expressed in decibels.
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference in dB between the rms amplitude of the
input signal and the peak spurious signal.

AD9224
INTRODUCTION
The AD9224 is a high performance, complete single-supply 12bit ADC. The analog input range of the AD9224 is highly flexible allowing for both single-ended or differential inputs of
varying amplitudes that can be ac or dc coupled.
It utilizes a four-stage pipeline architecture with a wideband
input sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) implemented on a costeffective CMOS process. Each stage of the pipeline, excluding
the last stage, consists of a low resolution flash A/D connected
to a switched capacitor DAC and interstage residue amplifier
(MDAC). The residue amplifier amplifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output and the flash input for the
next stage in the pipeline. One bit of redundancy is used in each
of the stages to facilitate digital correction of flash errors. The
last stage simply consists of a flash A/D.
The pipeline architecture allows a greater throughput rate at the
expense of pipeline delay or latency. This means that while the
converter is capable of capturing a new input sample every clock
cycle, it actually takes three clock cycles for the conversion to be
fully processed and appear at the output. This latency is not a
concern in most applications. The digital output, together with
the out-of-range indicator (OTR), is latched into an output
buffer to drive the output pins. The output drivers of the
AD9224 can be configured to interface with +5 V or +3.3 V
logic families.
The AD9224 uses both edges of the clock in its internal timing
circuitry (see Figure 1 and specification page for exact timing
requirements). The A/D samples the analog input on the rising
edge of the clock input. During the clock low time (between the
falling edge and rising edge of the clock), the input SHA is in
the sample mode; during the clock high time it is in hold. System disturbances just prior to the rising edge of the clock and/or
excessive clock jitter may cause the input SHA to acquire the
wrong value, and should be minimized.
ANALOG INPUT AND REFERENCE OVERVIEW
Figure 13 is a simplified model of the AD9224. It highlights the
relationship between the analog inputs, VINA, VINB, and the
reference voltage, VREF. Like the voltage applied to the top of
the resistor ladder in a flash A/D converter, the value VREF
defines the maximum input voltage to the A/D core. The minimum input voltage to the A/D core is automatically defined to
be –VREF.

converter. Specifically, the input to the A/D core is the difference of the voltages applied at the VINA and VINB input pins.
Therefore, the equation,
= VINA – VINB(1)
V
CORE
defines the output of the differential input stage and provides
the input to the A/D core.
The voltage, V
–VREF≤V
, must satisfy the condition,
CORE
≤VREF(2)
CORE
where VREF is the voltage at the VREF pin.
While an infinite combination of VINA and VINB inputs exist
that satisfy Equation 2, an additional limitation is placed on the
inputs by the power supply voltages of the AD9224. The power
supplies bound the valid operating range for VINA and VINB.
The condition,
AVSS – 0.3 V < VINA < AVDD + 0.3 V
AVSS – 0.3 V < VINB < AVDD + 0.3 V
(3)
where AVSS is nominally 0 V and AVDD is nominally +5 V,
defines this requirement. The range of valid inputs for VINA
and VINB is any combination that satisfies both Equations 2
and 3.
For additional information showing the relationship between
VINA, VINB, VREF and the digital output of the AD9224, see
Table IV.
Refer to Table I and Table II at the end of this section for a
summary of both the various analog input and reference
configurations.
ANALOG INPUT OPERATION
Figure 14 shows the equivalent analog input of the AD9224
which consists of a differential sample-and-hold amplifier
(SHA). The differential input structure of the SHA is highly
flexible, allowing the devices to be easily configured for either a
differential or single-ended input. The dc offset, or commonmode voltage, of the input(s) can be set to accommodate either
single-supply or dual-supply systems. Note also, that the analog
inputs, VINA and VINB, are interchangeable, with the exception that reversing the inputs to the VINA and VINB pins results in a polarity inversion.

The addition of a differential input structure gives the user an
additional level of flexibility that is not possible with traditional
flash converters. The input stage allows the user to easily configure the inputs for either single-ended operation or differential
operation. The A/D’s input structure allows the dc offset of the
input signal to be varied independently of the input span of the

Figure 14. Simplified Input Circuit
The AD9224 has a wide input range. The input peaks may be
moved to AVDD or AVSS before performance is compromised.
This allows for much greater flexibility when selecting singleended drive schemes. Op amps and ac coupling clamps can be
set to available reference levels rather than be dictated by what
the ADC “needs.”
