AD9233
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9233 architecture consists of a front-end SHA followed
by a pipelined switched capacitor ADC. The quantized outputs
from each stage are combined into a final 12-bit result in the
digital correction logic. The pipelined architecture permits the
first stage to operate on a new input sample, while the
remaining stages operate on preceding samples. Sampling
occurs on the rising edge of the clock.
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched capacitor DAC
and interstage residue amplifier (MDAC). The residue amplifier
magnifies 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 stage to facilitate digital correction
of flash errors. The last stage simply consists of a flash ADC.
The input stage contains a differential SHA that can be ac- or
dc-coupled in differential or single-ended modes. The outputstaging block aligns the data, carries out the error correction,
and passes the data to the output buffers. The output buffers are
powered from a separate supply, allowing adjustment of the
output voltage swing. During power-down, the output buffers
proceed into a high impedance state.
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The analog input to the AD9233 is a differential switched
capacitor SHA that has been designed for optimum
performance while processing a differential input signal.
The clock signal alternately switches the SHA between sample
mode and hold mode (see
switched into sample mode, the signal source must be capable
of charging the sample capacitors and settling within one-half
of a clock cycle. A small resistor in series with each input can
help reduce the peak transient current required from the output
stage of the driving source.
A shunt capacitor can be placed across the inputs to provide
dynamic charging currents. This passive network creates a lowpass filter at the ADC input; therefore, the precise values are
dependant upon the application.
In IF undersampling applications, any shunt capacitors should
be reduced. In combination with the driving source impedance,
these capacitors limit the input bandwidth. See Application

Capacitor ADCs, and
Interfacing Amplifiers to Switched-Capacitor ADCs, and the

For best dynamic performance, the source impedances driving
VIN+ and VIN− should match such that common-mode
settling errors are symmetrical. These errors are reduced by the
common-mode rejection of the ADC.
An internal differential reference buffer creates two reference
voltages used to define the input span of the ADC core. The
span of the ADC core is set by the buffer to be 2 × VREF. The
reference voltages are not available to the user. Two bypass
points, REFT and REFB, are brought out for decoupling to
reduce the noise contributed by the internal reference buffer. It
is recommended that REFT be decoupled to REFB by a 0.1 F
capacitor, as described in the
Layout Considerations section.
Input Common Mode
The analog inputs of the AD9233 are not internally dc-biased.
In ac-coupled applications, the user must provide this bias
externally. Setting the device such that V
recommended for optimum performance; however, the device
functions over a wider range with reasonable performance (see
Figure 32). An on-board common-mode voltage reference is
included in the design and is available from the CML pin.
Optimum performance is achieved when the common-mode
voltage of the analog input is set by the CML pin voltage
(typically 0.55 × AVDD). The CML pin must be decoupled to
ground by a 0.1 F capacitor, as described in the
Considerations
section.
Differential Input Configurations
Optimum performance is achieved by driving the AD9233 in a
differential input configuration. For baseband applications, the
AD8138 differential driver provides excellent performance and
a flexible interface to the ADC. The output common-mode
voltage of the
AD9233 (see
AD8138 is easily set with the CML pin of the
Figure 37), and the driver can be configured
in a Sallen-Key filter topology to provide band limiting of the
input signal.

Figure 37. Differential Input Configuration Using the AD8138
For baseband applications where SNR is a key parameter,
differential transformer coupling is the recommended input
configuration. An example is shown in
Figure 38. The CML
voltage can be connected to the center tap of the secondary
winding of the transformer to bias the analog input.
The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting a
transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few MHz, and excessive signal power can cause core
saturation, which leads to distortion.
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve
the true SNR performance of the AD9233. For applications
where SNR is a key parameter, transformer coupling is the
recommended input. For applications where SFDR is a key
parameter, differential double balun coupling is the recommended input configuration. An example is shown in
Figure 39.
As an alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at
frequencies in the second Nyquist zone, the
driver can be used. An example is shown in
AD8352 differential
Figure 40.
In any configuration, the value of the shunt capacitor, C, is
dependent on the input frequency and source impedance
and may need to be reduced or removed.

Single-Ended Input Configuration
Although not recommended, it is possible to operate the
AD9233 in a single-ended input configuration, as long as the
input voltage swing is within the AVDD supply. Single-ended
operation can provide adequate performance in cost-sensitive
applications. In this configuration, SFDR and distortion
performance degrade due to the large input common-mode
swing. If the source impedances on each input are matched,
there should be little effect on SNR performance.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE
A stable and accurate voltage reference is built into the AD9233.
The input range is adjustable by varying the reference voltage
applied to the AD9233, using either the internal reference or an
externally applied reference voltage. The input span of the ADC
tracks reference voltage changes linearly. The various reference
modes are summarized in the following sections. The
Decoupling
section describes the best practices and requirements
for PCB layout of the reference.
Internal Reference Connection
A comparator within the AD9233 detects the potential at the
SENSE pin and configures the reference into four possible
states, which are summarized in
Tabl e 9. If SENSE is grounded,
the reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal
resistor divider (see
Figure 42), setting VREF to 1 V.
Connecting the SENSE pin to VREF switches the reference
amplifier output to the SENSE pin, completing the loop and
providing a 0.5 V reference output. If a resistor divider is
connected external to the chip, as shown in
Figure 43, the
switch again sets to the SENSE pin.

If the SENSE pin is connected to the AVDD pin, the reference
amplifier is disabled, and an external reference voltage can be
applied to the VREF pin (see the
External Reference Operation
section).
The input range of the ADC always equals twice the voltage at
the reference pin for either an internal or an external reference.

For optimum performance, the AD9233 sample clock inputs

CLK− pin via a transformer or capacitors. These pins are biased
internally (see
Figure 5) and require no external bias.

When the SENSE pin is tied to the AVDD pin, the internal
reference is disabled, allowing the use of an external reference.
An internal resistor divider loads the external reference with an
equivalent 6 kΩ load (see
Figure 11). In addition, an internal
buffer generates the positive and negative full-scale references
for the ADC core. Therefore, the external reference must be
limited to a maximum of 1 V.

Clock Input Options
The AD9233 has a very flexible clock input structure. The clock
input can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal.
Regardless of the type of signal used, the jitter of the clock
source is of the most concern, as described in the
Considerations
section.
Jitter
Figure 46 shows one preferred method for clocking the
AD9233. A low jitter clock source is converted from singleended to a differential signal using an RF transformer. The
back-to-back Schottky diodes across the transformer secondary
limit clock excursions into the AD9233 to approximately
0.8 V p-p differential. This helps prevent the large voltage
swings of the clock from feeding through to other portions of
the AD9233 while preserving the fast rise and fall times of the
signal, which are critical to a low jitter performance.

In some applications, it is acceptable to drive the sample clock
inputs with a single-ended CMOS signal. In such applications,
directly drive CLK+ from a CMOS gate, while bypassing the
CLK− pin to ground with a 0.1 F capacitor. Although the
CLK+ input circuit supply is AVDD (1.8 V), this input is
designed to withstand input voltages up to 3.6 V, making the
selection of the drive logic voltage very flexible. When driving
CLK+ with a 1.8 V CMOS signal, it is required to bias the
CLK− pin with a 0.1 µF capacitor in parallel with a 39 kΩ
resistor (see

Clock Duty Cycle
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a
variety of internal timing signals. As a result, these ADCs may
be sensitive to clock duty cycle. Commonly, a ±5% tolerance is
required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance characteristics.
The AD9233 contains a DCS that retimes the nonsampling, or
falling edge, providing an internal clock signal with a nominal
50% duty cycle. This allows a wide range of clock input duty
cycles without affecting the performance of the AD9233. Noise
05492-050
05492-051
05492-052
and distortion performance are nearly flat for a wide range of
duty cycles when the DCS is on, as shown in
Figure 31.
Jitter in the rising edge of the input is still of paramount
concern and is not reduced by the internal stabilization circuit.
The duty cycle control loop does not function for clock rates
less than 20 MHz nominally. The loop has a time constant
associated with it that needs to be considered in applications
where the clock rate can change dynamically, which requires a
wait time of 1.5 µs to 5 µs after a dynamic clock frequency
increase (or decrease) before the DCS loop is relocked to the
input signal. During the time the loop is not locked, the DCS
loop is bypassed, and the internal device timing is dependant
on the duty cycle of the input clock signal. In such an application,
it can be appropriate to disable the duty cycle stabilizer. In all
other applications, enabling the DCS circuit is recommended to
maximize ac performance.
The DCS can be enabled or disabled by setting the SDIO/DCS
pin when operating in the external pin mode (see
via the SPI, as described in the

AD9233
Treat the clock input as an analog signal in cases where aperture
jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9233. Power
supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the ADC
output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal with
digital noise. The power supplies should also not be shared with
analog input circuits such as buffers to avoid the clock
modulating onto the input signal or vice versa. Low jitter,
crystal-controlled oscillators make the best clock sources.
If the clock is generated from another type of source (by
gating, dividing, or other methods), it should be retimed by the
original clock at the last step.

AN-756, Sampled Systems and

information about jitter performance as it relates to ADCs.
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
As shown in Figure 52 and Figure 53, the power dissipated by
the AD9233 is proportional to its sample rate. The digital power
dissipation is determined primarily by the strength of the digital
drivers and the load on each output bit. The maximum DRVDD

AD9233
Power-Down Mode
By asserting the PDWN pin high, the AD9233 is placed in
power-down mode. In this state, the ADC typically dissipates
1.8 mW. During power-down, the output drivers are placed in a
high impedance state. Reasserting the PDWN pin low returns
the AD9233 to its normal operational mode. This pin is both
1.8 V and 3.3 V tolerant.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,
and clock. The decoupling capacitors on REFT and REFB are
discharged when entering power-down mode and then must be
recharged when returning to normal operation. As a result, the
wake-up time is related to the time spent in power-down mode;
shorter power-down cycles result in proportionally shorter
wake-up times. With the recommended 0.1 µF decoupling
capacitor on REFT and REFB, it takes approximately 0.25 ms
to fully discharge the reference buffer decoupling capacitor and
0.35 ms to restore full operation.
Standby Mode
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC
in power-down or standby modes. Standby mode allows the
user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when
faster wake-up times are required. See the
Memor y Map
section for more details.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The AD9233 output drivers can be configured to interface with
1.8 V to 3.3 V logic families by matching DRVDD to the digital
supply of the interfaced logic. The output drivers are sized to
provide sufficient output current to drive a wide variety of logic
families. However, large drive currents tend to cause current
glitches on the supplies that can affect converter performance.
Applications requiring the ADC to drive large capacitive loads
or large fanouts can require external buffers or latches.
The output data format can be selected for either offset binary
or twos complement by setting the SCLK/DFS pin when
operating in the external pin mode (see
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI User Manual, the
the
data format can be selected for either offset binary, twos
complement, or Gray code when using the SPI control.
An out-of-range condition exists when the analog input voltage
is beyond the input range of the ADC. OR is a digital output
that is updated along with the data output corresponding to the
particular sampled input voltage. Thus, OR has the same pipeline
latency as the digital data.

OR is low when the analog input voltage is within the analog
input range and high when the analog input voltage exceeds the
input range, as shown in
Figure 55. OR remains high until the
analog input returns to within the input range and another
conversion is completed. By logically AND’ing the OR bit with

Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)
The AD9233 has three-state ability. If the OEB pin is low, the
output data drivers are enabled. If the OEB pin is high, the output
data drivers are placed in a high impedance state. This is not
intended for rapid access to the data bus. Note that OEB is
referenced to the digital supplies (DRVDD) and should not
exceed that supply voltage.
Rev. A | Page 21 of 44
AD9233
TIMING
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9233 is 10 MSPS.
At clock rates below 10 MSPS, dynamic performance can
degrade.
The AD9233 provides latched data outputs with a pipeline delay
of 12 clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation
delay (t
) after the rising edge of the clock signal.
PD
Data Clock Output (DCO)
The AD9233 provides a data clock output (DCO) intended for
capturing the data in an external register. The data outputs are
valid on the rising edge of DCO, unless the DCO clock polarity
has been changed via the SPI. See
timing description.
Figure 2 for a graphical
The length of the output data lines and the loads placed on
them should be minimized to reduce transients within the
AD9233. These transients can degrade the dynamic performance
of the converter.

AD9233
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9233 SPI allows the user to configure the converter for
specific functions or operations through a structured register
space provided inside the ADC. This provides the user added
flexibility and customization depending on the application.
Addresses are accessed via the serial port and can be written to
or read from via the port. Memory is organized into bytes that
are further divided into fields, as documented in the
section. For detailed operational information, see the
Map
Memory
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI User Manual.
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
As summarized in Ta b le 1 3, three pins define the SPI of this
ADC. The SCLK/DFS pin synchronizes the read and write data
presented to the ADC. The SDIO/DCS dual-purpose pin allows
data to be sent and read from the internal ADC memory map
registers. The CSB pin is an active low control that enables or
disables the read and write cycles.
Table 13. Serial Port Interface Pins
Mnemonic Description
SCLK/DFS
SDIO/DCS
CSB
The falling edge of the CSB in conjunction with the rising edge
of the SCLK determines the start of the framing.
Tabl e 14 provide an example of the serial timing and its
definitions.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be
held low indefinitely, permanently enabling the device (this is
called streaming). The CSB can stall high between bytes to
allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high
during power up, SPI functions are placed in a high impedance
mode. This mode turns on any SPI pin secondary functions. If
CSB is high at power up and then brought low to activate the
SPI, the SPI pin secondary functions are no longer available,
unless the device power is cycled.
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase and the length is determined
by the W0 bit and the W1 bit. All data is composed of 8-bit
words. The first bit of each individual byte of serial data indicates
whether a read or write command is issued. This allows the
serial data input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from
an input to an output.
SCLK (Serial Clock) is the serial shift clock in. SCLK
synchronizes serial interface reads and writes.
SDIO (Serial Data Input/Output) is a dual-purpose
pin. The typical role for this pin is an input and
output depending on the instruction being sent
and the relative position in the timing frame.
CSB (Chip Select Bar) is an active low control that
gates the read and write cycles.
Figure 57 and
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines if
the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing the serial
port to be used to both program the chip as well as read the
contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/
output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an
output at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
Data can be sent in MSB first or in LSB first mode. MSB first is
the default on power up and can be changed via the
configuration register. For more information, see the
to High Speed ADCs via SPI User Manual

HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Ta b l e 13 comprise the physical interface
between the user’s programming device and the serial port of
the AD9233. The SCLK and CSB pins function as inputs when
using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is bidirectional, functioning
as an input during write phases and as an output during readback.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either
PROM or PIC microcontrollers. This provides the user with the
ability to use an alternate method to program the ADC. One
method is described in detail in the Application Note
AN-812.
When the SPI interface is not used, some pins serve a dual
function. When strapped to AVDD or ground during device
power on, the pins are associated with a specific function.
CONFIGURATION WITHOUT THE SPI
In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers,
the SDIO/DCS and SCLK/DFS pins serve as standalone CMOScompatible control pins. When the device is powered up with
the CSB chip select connected to AVDD, the serial port interface is
disabled. In this mode, it is assumed that the user intends to use
the pins as static control lines for the output data format and
duty cycle stabilizer (see

MEMORY MAP
READING THE MEMORY MAP TABLE
Each row in the memory map table has eight address locations.
The memory map is roughly divided into three sections: chip
configuration registers map (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02),
device index and transfer registers map (Address 0xFF), and
ADC functions map (Address 0x08 to Address 0x18).
The memory map register in
address number in hexadecimal in the first column. The last
column displays the default value for each hexadecimal address.
The Bit 7 (MSB) column is the start of the default hexadecimal
value given. For example, Hexadecimal Address 0x14,
output_phase has a hexadecimal default value of 0x00. This
means Bit 3 = 0, Bit 2 = 0, Bit 1 = 1, and Bit 0 = 1 or 0011 in
binary. This setting is the default output clock or DCO phase
adjust option. The default value adjusts the DCO phase 90°
relative to the nominal DCO edge and 180° relative to the data
edge. For more information on this function, consult the

AD9233
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
POWER AND GROUND RECOMMENDATIONS
When connecting power to the AD9233, it is recommended
that two separate supplies be used: one for analog (AVDD, 1.8 V
nominal) and one for digital (DRVDD, 1.8 V to 3.3 V nominal).
If only a single 1.8 V supply is available, then it should be routed
to AVDD first, then tapped off and isolated with a ferrite bead
or filter choke with decoupling capacitors preceding its connection to DRVDD. The user can employ several different
decoupling capacitors to cover both high and low frequencies.
These should be located close to the point of entry at the PC
board level and close to the parts with minimal trace length.
A single PC board ground plane should be sufficient when
using the AD9233. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the analog, digital, and clock sections of the board,
optimum performance is easily achieved.
Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations
It is required that the exposed paddle on the underside of the
ADC is connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the
best electrical and thermal performance of the AD9233. An
exposed, continuous copper plane on the PCB should mate to
the AD9233 exposed paddle, Pin 0. The copper plane should
have several vias to achieve the lowest possible resistive thermal
path for heat dissipation to flow through the bottom of the PCB.
These vias should be solder filled or plugged.
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and
PCB, partition the continuous plane by overlaying a silkscreen
on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several
tie points between the two during the reflow process. Using one
continuous plane with no partitions only guarantees one tie
point between the ADC and PCB. See
layout example. For detailed information on packaging and the
PCB layout of chip scale packages, see Application Note
A Design and Manufacturing Guide for the Lead Frame Chip
Scale Package (LFCSP).
Figure 58 for a PCB
AN-772,
SILKSCREEN PARTITION
PIN 1 INDICATOR
05492-054
Figure 58. Typical PCB Layout
CML
The CML pin should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1 F
capacitor, as shown in
Figure 38.
RBIAS
The AD9233 requires the user to place a 10 kΩ resistor between
the RBIAS pin and ground. This resister sets the master current
reference of the ADC core and should have at least a 1% tolerance.
REFERENCE DECOUPLING
The VREF pin should be externally decoupled to ground with a
low ESR 1.0 F capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 F ceramic low
ESR capacitor. In all reference configurations, REFT and REFB
are bypass points provided for reducing the noise contributed
by the internal reference buffer. It is recommended to place an
external 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor across REFT/REFB. While it is
not required to place this 0.1 µF capacitor, the SNR performance
will degrade by approximately 0.1 dB without it. All reference
decoupling capacitors should be placed as close to the ADC as
possible with minimal trace lengths.
Rev. A | Page 27 of 44
AD9233
EVALUATION BOARD
The AD9233 evaluation board provides all of the support
circuitry required to operate the ADC in its various modes and
configurations. The converter can be driven differentially
through a double balun configuration (default) or through the
AD8352 differential driver. The ADC can also be driven in a
single-ended fashion. Separate power pins are provided to
isolate the DUT from the
AD8352 drive circuitry. Each input
configuration can be selected by proper connection of various
components.
Figure 59 shows the typical bench characterization
setup used to evaluate the ac performance of the AD9233.
It is critical that the signal sources used for the analog input and
clock have very low phase noise (<1 ps rms jitter) to realize the
optimum performance of the converter. Proper filtering of the
analog input signal to remove harmonics and lower the integrated or broadband noise at the input is also necessary to achieve
the specified noise performance.
See
Figure 60 to Figure 70 for the complete schematics and
layout diagrams that demonstrate the routing and grounding
techniques that should be applied at the system level.
POWER SUPPLIES
This evaluation board comes with a wall-mountable switching
power supply that provides a 6 V, 2 A maximum output. Simply
connect the supply to the rated 100 V ac to 240 V ac wall outlet
at 47 Hz to 63 Hz. The other end is a 2.1 mm inner diameter
jack that connects to the PCB at P500. Once on the PC board,
the 6 V supply is fused and conditioned before connecting to
five low dropout linear regulators that supply the proper bias to
each of the various sections on the board. When operating the
evaluation board in a nondefault condition, L501, L503, L504,
L508, and L509 can be removed to disconnect the switching
power supply. This enables the user to bias each section of the
board independently. Use P501 to connect a different supply for
each section.

Although at least one 1.8 V supply is needed with a 1 A current
capability for AVDD_DUT and DRVDD_DUT, it is recommended that separate supplies be used for analog and digital.
To operate the evaluation board using the
AD8352 option, a
separate 5.0 V analog supply is needed. The 5.0 V supply, or
AMP_VDD, should have a 1 A current capability. To operate
the evaluation board using the alternate SPI options, a separate
3.3 V analog supply is needed in addition to the other supplies.
The 3.3 V supply (AVDD_3.3V) should have a 1 A current
capability as well. Solder Jumpers J501, J502, and J505 allow the
user to combine these supplies. See
Figure 64 for more details.
INPUT SIGNALS
When connecting the clock and analog source, use clean signal
generators with low phase noise, such as Rohde & Schwarz SMHU
or Agilent HP8644 signal generators or the equivalent. Use one
meter long, shielded, RG-58, 50 Ω coaxial cables for making
connections to the evaluation board. Enter the desired frequency
and amplitude for the ADC. Typically, most ADI evaluation
boards can accept a ~2.8 V p-p or 13 dBm sine wave input for
the clock. When connecting the analog input source, it is
recommended to use a multipole, narrow-band, band-pass
filter with 50 Ω terminations. Analog Devices uses TTE®, Allen
Avionics, and K&L® types of band-pass filters. Connect the filter
directly to the evaluation board, if possible.
OUTPUT SIGNALS

DEFAULT OPERATION AND JUMPER SELECTION
SETTINGS
The following is a list of the default and optional settings or
modes allowed on the AD9233 Rev. A evaluation board.
POWER
Connect the switching power supply that is supplied in the
evaluation kit between a rated 100 V ac to 240 V ac wall outlet
at 47 Hz to 63 Hz and P500.
SCLK/DFS
If the SPI port is in external pin mode, the SCLK/DFS pin sets the
data format of the outputs. If the pin is left floating, the pin is
internally pulled down, setting the default condition to binary.
Connecting JP2 Pin 2 and Pin 3 sets the format to twos
complement. If the SPI port is in serial pin mode, connecting
JP2 Pin 1 and Pin 2 connects the SCLK pin to the on board
SPI circuitry. See the
more details.
Serial Port Interface (SPI) section for
VIN
The evaluation board is set up for a double balun configuration
analog input with optimum 50 Ω impedance matching out to
70 MHz. For more bandwidth response, the differential capacitor
across the analog inputs can be changed or removed (see
The common mode of the analog inputs is developed from the
center tap of the transformer via the CML pin of the ADC. See
Analog Input Considerations section for more information.
the
Tabl e 8).
VREF
VREF is set to 1.0 V by tying the SENSE pin to ground via
JP507 (Pin 1 and Pin 2). This causes the ADC to operate in
2.0 V p-p full-scale range. A separate external reference option
is also included on the evaluation board. Simply connect JP507
between Pin 2 and Pin 3, connect JP501, and provide an external
reference at E500. Proper use of the VREF options is detailed in
Volt age R efe r enc e section.
the
RBIAS
RBIAS requires a 10 kΩ (R503) to ground and is used to set the
ADC core bias current.
CLOCK
The default clock input circuitry is derived from a simple
transformer-coupled circuit using a high bandwidth 1:1
impedance ratio transformer (T503) that adds a very low
amount of jitter to the clock path. The clock input is 50 Ω
terminated and ac-coupled to handle single-ended sine wave
inputs. The transformer converts the single-ended input to a
differential signal that is clipped before entering the ADC
clock inputs.
PDWN
To enable the power-down feature, connect JP506, shorting the
PDWN pin to AVDD.
SDIO/DCS
If the SPI port is in external pin mode, the SDIO/DCS pin acts
to set the duty cycle stabilizer. If the pin is left floating, the pin is
internally pulled up, setting the default condition to DCS enabled.
To disable the DCS, connect JP3 Pin 2 and Pin 3. If the SPI port
is in serial pin mode, connecting JP3 Pin 1 and Pin 2 connects the
SDIO pin to the on-board SPI circuitry. See the
Interface (SPI)
section for more details.
