GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9517-31 provides a multi-output clock distribution function with subpicosecond jitter performance, along with an on-chip PLL and VCO. The on-chip VCO tunes from 1.75 GHz to 2.25 GHz. Optionally, an external VCO/VCXO of up to
2.4 GHz may be used.
The AD9517-3 emphasizes low jitter and phase noise to max
imize data converter performance, and it can benefit other
applications with demanding phase noise and jitter requirements.

The AD9517-3 features four LVPECL outputs (in two pairs); four LVDS outputs (in two pairs); and eight CMOS outputs (two per LVDS output). The LVPECL outputs operate to 1.6 GHz, the LVDS outputs operate to 800 MHz, and the CMOS outputs operate to 250 MHz.
Each pair of outputs has dividers that allow both the divide
atio and coarse delay (or phase) to be set. The range of division
r for the LVPECL outputs is 1 to 32. The LVDS/CMOS outputs allow a range of divisions up to a maximum of 1024.
The AD9517-3 is available in a 48-lead LFCSP and can be op
erated from a single 3.3 V supply. An external VCO, which requires an extended voltage range, can be accommodated by connecting the charge pump supply (VCP) to 5.5 V. A separate LVPECL power supply can be from 2.375 V to 3.6 V.
The AD9517-3 is specified for operation over the standard
ustrial range of −40°C to +85°C.

The PLL in-band phase noise floor is estimated by measuring the in-band phase noise at the output of the VCO and subtracting 20 log(N) (where N is the value of the N divider)
Reference slew rate > 0.25 V/ns. FOM + 10 log(f is an approximation of the PFD/CP in-band phase noise (in the flat region) inside the PLL loop bandwidth; when running closed loop, the phase noise, as observed at the VCO output, is increased by 20 log(N)

TERMINOLOGY

Phase Jitter and Phase Noise
An ideal sine wave can be thought of as having a continuous
nd even progression of phase with time from 0° to 360° for
a each cycle. Actual signals, however, display a certain amount of variation from ideal phase progression over time. This phenomenon is called phase jitter. Although many causes can contribute to phase jitter, one major cause is random noise, which is characterized statistically as being Gaussian (normal) in distribution.
This phase jitter leads to a spreading out of the energy of the sin
e wave in the frequency domain, producing a continuous power spectrum. This power spectrum is usually reported as a series of values whose units are dBc/Hz at a given offset in frequency from the sine wave (carrier). The value is a ratio (expressed in dB) of the power contained within a 1 Hz bandwidth with respect to the power at the carrier frequency. For each measurement, the offset from the carrier frequency is also given.
It is meaningful to integrate the total power contained within
ome interval of offset frequencies (for example, 10 kHz to
s 10 MHz). This is called the integrated phase noise over that frequency offset interval and can be readily related to the time jitter due to the phase noise within that offset frequency interval.
Phase noise has a detrimental effect on the performance of
Cs, DACs, and RF mixers. It lowers the achievable dynamic
AD range of the converters and mixers, although they are affected in somewhat different ways.
Time Jitter
Phase noise is a frequency domain phenomenon. In the time do
main, the same effect is exhibited as time jitter. When observing a sine wave, the time of successive zero crossings varies. In a square wave, the time jitter is a displacement of the edges from their ideal (regular) times of occurrence. In both cases, the variations in timing from the ideal are the time jitter. Because these variations are random in nature, the time jitter is specified in units of seconds root mean square (rms) or 1 sigma of the Gaussian distribution.
Time jitter that occurs on a sampling clock for a DAC or an
C decreases the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and dynamic
AD range of the converter. A sampling clock with the lowest possible jitter provides the highest performance from a given converter.
Additive Phase Noise
Additive phase noise is the amount of phase noise that is
ttributable to the device or subsystem being measured. The
a phase noise of any external oscillators or clock sources iss subtracted. This makes it possible to predict the degree to which the device impacts the total system phase noise when used in conjunction with the various oscillators and clock sources, each of which contributes its own phase noise to the total. In many cases, the phase noise of one element dominates the system phase noise. When there are multiple contributors to phase noise, the total is the square root of the sum of squares of the individual contributors.

THEORY OF OPERATION

OPERATIONAL CONFIGURATIONS

The AD9517 can be configured in several ways. These configurations must be set up by loading the control registers (see Tabl e 51 and Ta bl e 52 through Tabl e 61 ). Each section or f
unction must be individually programmed by setting the
appropriate bits in the corresponding control register or registers.

High Frequency Clock Distribution—CLK or External VCO >1600 MHz

The AD9517 power-up default configuration has the PLL powered off and the routing of the input set so that the
CLK

This is a distribution only mode that allows for an external input up to 2400 MHz (see max is 1600 MHz; therefore, higher input frequencies must be divided down before reaching the channel dividers. This input routing can also be used for lower input frequencies, but the minimum divide is 2 before the channel dividers.
When the PLL is enabled, this routing also allows the use of the PLL 2400 MHz. In this configuration, the internal VCO is not used, and is powered off. The external VCO/VCXO feeds directly into the prescaler.
The register settings shown in Table 2 1 are the default values of
hese registers at power-up or after a reset operation. If the
t contents of the registers are altered by prior programming after power-up or reset, these registers may also be set intentionally to these values.

Clock Distribution or External VCO <1600 MHz

When the external clock source to be distributed or the external VCO/VCXO is <1600 MHz, a configuration that bypasses the VCO divider can be used. This only differs from the High F
requency Clock Distribution—CLK or External VCO >1600 MHz
s
ection in that the VCO divider (divide-by-2, divide-by-3, divide-by-4, divide-by-5, and divide-by-6) is bypassed. This limits the frequency of the clock source to <1600 MHz (due to the maximum input frequency allowed at the channel dividers).
Configuration and Register Settings
For clock distribution applications where the external clock is <1600 MHz, the register settings shown in Tab le 2 5 should be used.

The AD9517 includes an on-chip PLL with an on-chip VCO.
LL blocks can be used either with the on-chip VCO to
The P create a complete phase-locked loop or with an external VCO or VCXO. The PLL requires an external loop filter, which usually consists of a small number of capacitors and resistors. The configuration and components of the loop filter help to establish the loop bandwidth and stability of the operating PLL.
The AD9517 PLL is useful for generating clock frequencies
rom a supplied reference frequency. This includes conversion
f of reference frequencies to much higher frequencies for subsequent division and distribution. In addition, the PLL can be exploited to clean up jitter and phase noise on a noisy reference. The exact choices of PLL parameters and loop dynamics are application specific. The flexibility and depth of the AD9517 PLL allow the part to be tailored to function in many different applications and signal environments.
Configuration of the PLL
The AD9517 allows flexible configuration of the PLL, accommodating various reference frequencies, PFD comparison frequencies, VCO frequencies, internal or external VCO/VCXO, and loop dynamics. This is accomplished by the various settings that include the R divider, the N divider, the PFD polarity (only applicable to external VCO/VCXO), the antibacklash pulse width, the charge pump current, the selection of internal VCO or external VCO/VCXO, and the loop bandwidth. These are managed through programmable register settings (see
nd Tabl e 53 ) and by the design of the external loop filter.

Phase Frequency Detector (PFD)
The PFD takes inputs from the R counter and N counter and produces an output proportional to the phase and frequency difference between them. The PFD includes a programmable delay element that controls the width of the antibacklash pulse. This pulse ensures that there is no dead zone in the PFD transfer function and minimizes phase noise and reference spurs. The antibacklash pulse width is set by 0x17<1:0>.

Charge Pump (CP)
The charge pump is controlled by the PFD. The PFD monitors the phase and frequency relationship between its two inputs and tells the CP to pump up or pump down to charge or discharge the integrating node (part of the loop filter). The integrated and filtered CP current is transformed into a voltage that drives the tuning node of the internal VCO through the LF pin (or the tuning pin of an external VCO) to move the VCO frequency up or down. The CP can be set (0x10<6:4>) for high impedance (allows holdover operation), for normal operation (attempts to lock the PLL loop), for pump up, or for pump down (test modes). The CP current is programmable in eight steps from (nominally) 600 μA to 4.8 mA. The exact value of the CP current LSB is set by the CP_RSET resistor, which is nominally 5.1 kΩ.
On-Chip VCO
The AD9517 includes an on-chip VCO covering the frequency range shown in Tab le 2 . Achieving low VCO phase noise was a

To tune over the wide range of frequencies covered by this V
CO, ranges are used. This is largely transparent to the user but is the reason that the VCO must be calibrated when the PLL loop is first set up. The calibration procedure ensures that the VCO is operating within the correct band range for the frequency that it is asked to produce. See the
itional information.

The on-chip VCO is powered by an on-chip, low drop out (LD
O), linear voltage regulator. The LDO provides some isolation of the VCO from variations in the power supply voltage level. The BYPASS pin should be connected to ground by a 220 nF capacitor to ensure stability. This LDO employs the same technology used in the anyCAP® line of regulators from Analog Devices, Inc., making it insensitive to the type of capacitor used. Driving an external load from the BYPASS pin is not supported.
PLL External Loop Filter
When using the internal VCO, the external loop filter should be referenced to the BYPASS pin for optimal noise and spurious performance. An example of an external loop filter for the PLL is shown in desir depend upon the VCO frequency, the K

There are tools available, such as ADIsimCLK, that can help with the calculation of a loop filter according to the application requirements.
PLL Reference Inputs
The AD9517 features a flexible PLL reference input circuit that allows either a fully differential input or two separate single­ended inputs. The input frequency range for the reference inputs is specified in

The differential input and the single-ended inputs share the two

pi type is selected and controlled by 0x1C (see Tab l e 5 1 and Tab l e 5 3).
When the differential reference input is selected, the self-bias lev
el of the two sides is offset slightly (~100 mV, see Ta b le 2 ) to
p
revent chattering of the input buffer when the reference is slow or missing. This increases the voltage swing required of the driver and overcomes the offset.
The single-ended inputs can be driven by either a dc-coupled C
MOS level signal or an ac-coupled sine wave or square wave. Each single-ended input can be independently powered down when not needed to increase isolation and reduce power. Either a differential or a single-ended reference must be specifically enabled. All PLL reference inputs are off by default.
The differential reference input is powered down whenever the PLL is p not selected. The single-ended buffers power down when the PLL is powered down and when their individual power-down registers are set. When the differential mode is selected, the single-ended inputs are powered down.
In differential mode, the reference input pins are internally self­biased so that they can be ac-coupled via capacitors. It is possible to dc couple to these inputs. If the differential REFIN is driven by a single-ended signal, the unused side (

Reference Switchover
The AD9517 supports dual single-ended CMOS inputs, as well as a single differential reference input. In the dual single-ended reference mode, the AD9517 supports automatic and manual PLL reference clock switching between REF1 (on Pin REFIN) and REF2 (on Pin
REFIN
). This feature supports networking and other applications that require redundant references. When using reference switchover, the single-ended reference inputs should be dc-coupled CMOS levels and never be allowed to go to high impedance. If these inputs are allowed to go to high impedance, noise may cause the buffer to chatter, causing a false detection of the presence of a reference.
There are several configurable modes of reference switchover. The s
witchover can be performed manually or automatically. The manual switchover is done either through a register setting (0x1D) or by using the REF_SEL pin. The automatic switchover occurs when REF1 disappears. There is also a switchover deglitch feature that ensures that the PLL does not receive rising edges that are far out of alignment with the newly selected reference.
There are two reference automatic switchover modes (0x1C):
P
refer REF1: Switch from REF1 to REF2 when REF1
disappears. Return to REF1 from REF2 when REF1 returns.
tay on REF2: Automatically switch to REF2 if REF1 disappears,
S
but do not switch back to REF1 if it reappears. The reference can be set back to REF1 manually at an appropriate time.
In automatic mode, REF1 is monitored by REF2. If REF1
isappears (two consecutive falling edges of REF2 without an
d edge transition on REF1), REF1 is considered missing. Upon the next subsequent rising edge of REF2, REF2 is used as the reference clock to the PLL. If 0x1C<3> = 0b (default), when REF1 returns (four rising edges of REF1 without two falling edges of REF2 between the REF1 edges), the PLL reference switches back to REF1. If 0x1C<3> = 1b, the user can control when to switch back to REF1. This is done by programming the part to manual reference select mode (0x1C<4> = 0b) and by ensuring that the registers and/or REF_SEL pin are set to select the desired reference. Automatic mode can be re-enabled when REF1 is reselected.
Manual switchover requires the presence of a clock on the r
eference input that is being switched to, or that the deglitching
feature be disabled (0x1C<7>).
Reference Divider R
The reference inputs are routed to the reference divider, R. R (a 14-bit counter) can be set to any value from 0 to 16383 by writing to 0x11 and 0x12. (Both R = 0 and R = 1 give divide-by-1.) The output of the R divider goes to one of the PFD inputs to be compared with the VCO frequency divided by the N divider. The frequency applied to the PFD must not exceed the maximum allowable frequency, which depends on the antibacklash pulse setting (see
Tabl e 2).
The R counter has its own reset. The R counter can be reset
g the shared reset bit of the R, A, and B counters. It can also

Prescaler
The prescaler of the AD9517 allows for two modes of operation: a fixed divide (FD) mode of 1, 2, or 3, and dual modulus (DM) mode where the prescaler divides by P and (P + 1) {2 and 3, 4 and 5, 8 and 9, 16 and 17, or 32 and 33}. The prescaler modes of operation are given in
ailable at all frequencies (see Tabl e 2).

By using combinations of DM and FD modes, the AD9517 can achieve values of N all the way down to N = 1. Tabl e 28 shows h
ow a 10 MHz reference input may be locked to any integer
multiple of N.
Note that the same value of N may be derived in different ways, as i
llustrated by the case of N = 12. The user may choose a fixed divide mode P = 2 with B = 6, or use the dual modulus mode 2/3 with A = 0, B = 6, or use the dual modulus mode 4/5 with A = 0, B = 3.
A and B Counters
The AD9517 B counter can be bypassed (B = 1). This B counter bypass mode is only valid when using the prescaler in FD mode. When A = 0, the divide is a fixed divide of P = 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32.
Unlike the R counter, an A = 0 is actually a zero. The B counter

DIGITAL LOCK DETECT (DLD)

By selecting the proper output through the mux on each pin, the DLD function is available at the LD, STATUS, and REFMON pins. The DLD circuit indicates a lock when the time difference of the rising edges at the PFD inputs is less than a specified value (the lock threshold). The loss of a lock is indicated when the time difference exceeds a specified value (the unlock threshold). Note that the unlock threshold is wider than the lock threshold, which allows some phase error in excess of the lock window to occur without chattering on the lock indicator.
The lock detect window timing depends on three settings: the
LD window bit (0x18<4>), the antibacklash pulse width
D setting (0x17<1:0>, see Tab l e 2 ), and the lock detect counter (0x18<6:5>). A programmable number of consecutive PFD cycles with a time difference less than the lock detect threshold. The lock detect circuit continues to indicate a lock until a time difference greater than the unlock threshold occurs on a single subsequent cycle. For the lock detect to work properly, the period of the PFD frequency must be greater than the unlock threshold. The number of consecutive PFD cycles required for lock is programmable (0x18<6:5>).
Analog Lock Detect (ALD)
The AD9517 provides an ALD function that may be selected for use at the LD pin. There are two versions of ALD:
N-cha
pull-up resistor to the positive supply, VS. The output is normally high with short, low-going pulses. Lock is indicated by the minimum duty cycle of the low-going pulses.
-channel open-drain lock detect. This signal requires a pull-
P
down resistor to GND. The output is normally low with short, high-going pulses. Lock is indicated by the minimum duty cycle of the high-going pulses.
The analog lock detect function requires an R-C filter to p
rovide a logic level indicating lock/unlock.
Current Source Digital Lock Detect (DLD)
During the PLL locking sequence, it is normal for the DLD signal to toggle a number of times before remaining steady when the PLL is completely locked and stable. There may be applications where it is desirable to have DLD asserted only after the PLL is solidly locked. This is possible by using the

current source lock detect function. This function is set by selecting it as the output from the LD pin control (0x1A<5:0>).
The current source lock detect provides a current of 110 μA when D
LD is true and shorts to ground when DLD is false. If a capacitor is connected to the LD pin, it charges at a rate determined by the current source during the DLD true time but is discharged nearly instantly when DLD is false. By monitoring the voltage at the LD pin (top of the capacitor), it is only possible to get a Logic High level after the DLD has been true for a sufficiently long time. Any momentary DLD false resets the charging. By selecting a properly sized capacitor, it is possible to delay a lock detect indication until the PLL is stably locked, and the lock detect does not chatter.
The voltage on the capacitor can be sensed by an external co
mparator connected to the LD pin. However, there is an internal LD pin comparator that can be read at the REFMON pin control (0x1B<4:0>) or the STATUS pin control (0x17<7:2>) as an active high signal. It is also available as an active low signal (REFMON, 0x1B<4:0> and STATUS, 0x17<7:2>). The internal LD pin comparator trip point and hysteresis are given in

Holdover
The AD9517 PLL has a holdover function. Holdover is implemented by putting the charge pump into a high impedance state. This is useful when the PLL reference clock is lost. Holdover mode allows the VCO to maintain a relatively constant frequency even though there is no reference clock. Without this function, the charge pump is placed into a constant pump-up or pump-down state, resulting in a massive VCO frequency shift. Because the charge pump is placed in a high impedance state, any leakage that occurs at the charge pump output or the VCO tuning node causes a drift of the VCO frequency. This can be mitigated by using a loop filter that contains a large capacitive component because this drift is limited by the current leakage induced slew rate (I
LEAK
/C)
of the VCO control voltage.
SYNC
Both a manual holdover, using the
pin, and an automatic holdover mode are provided. To use either function, the holdover function must be enabled (0x1D<0> and 0x1D<2>).
[Note that the VCO cannot be calibrated with the holdover ena
bled because the holdover resets the N divider during calibration, which prevents proper calibration. Disable holdover before issuing a VCO calibration.]
Manual Holdover Mode
A manual holdover mode can be enabled that allows the user to place the charge pump into a high impedance state when the SYNC
pin is asserted low. This operation is edge sensitive not level sensitive. The charge pump immediately enters a high impedance state. To take the charge pump out of a high impedance state take the
SYNC
pin high. The charge pump then leaves high impedance state synchronously with the next PFD rising edge from the reference clock. This prevents extraneous charge pump events from occurring during the time between
SYNC
going high and the next PFD event. This also means that the charge pump stays in a high impedance state as long as there is no reference clock present.
The B counter (in the N divider) is reset synchronously with the cha
rge pump leaving the high impedance state on the reference path PFD event. This helps align the edges out of the R and N dividers for faster settling of the PLL. Because the prescaler is not reset, this feature works best when the B and R numbers are close because this results in a smaller phase difference for the loop to settle out.
When using this mode, the channel dividers should be set to
SYNC
nore the
ig
pin (at least after an initial
dividers are not set to ignore the
SYNC
SYNC
event). If the
pin, any time
SYNC
is taken low to put the part into holdover, the distribution outputs turn off.
Automatic/Internal Holdover Mode
When enabled, this function automatically puts the charge pump into a high impedance state when the loop loses lock. The assumption is that the only reason the loop loses lock is due to the PLL losing the reference clock; therefore, the holdover function puts the charge pump into a high impedance state to maintain the VCO frequency as close as possible to the original frequency before the reference clock disappears.
A flow chart of the automatic/internal holdover function

The holdover function senses the logic level of the LD pin as a condition to enter holdover. The signal at LD can be from the DLD, ALD, or current source LD mode. It is possible to disable the LD comparator (0x1D<3>), which causes the holdover function to always sense LD as high. If DLD is used, it is possible for the DLD signal to chatter some while the PLL is reacquiring lock. The holdover function may retrigger, thereby preventing the holdover mode from terminating. Use of the current source lock detect mode is recommended to avoid this situation (see the
Current Source Digital Lock Detect section).

Once in holdover mode, the charge pump stays in a high impedance state as long as there is no reference clock present.
As in the external holdover mode, the B counter (in the N divider) is r high impedance state on the reference path PFD event. This helps to align the edges out of the R and N dividers for faster settling of the PLL and to reduce frequency errors during settling. Because the prescaler is not reset, this feature works best when the B and R numbers are close, resulting in a smaller phase difference for the loop to settle out.
After leaving holdover, the loop then reacquires lock and the LD p holdover (CP high impedance).
The holdover function always responds to the state of the
urrently selected reference (0x1C). If the loop loses lock during
c a reference switchover (see the Reference Switchover section),

VCO Calibration
The AD9517 on-chip VCO must be calibrated to ensure proper operation over process and temperature. The VCO calibration is controlled by a calibration controller running off a divided REFIN clock. The calibration requires that the PLL be set up properly to lock the PLL loop and that the REFIN clock be present. During the first initialization after a power-up or a reset of the AD9517, a VCO calibration sequence is initiated by setting 0x18<0> = 1b. This can be done as part of the initial setup before executing an update registers (0x232<0> = 1b). Subsequent to the initial setup, a VCO calibration sequence is initiated by resetting 0x18<0> = 0b, executing an update registers operation, setting 0x18<0> = 1b, and executing another update registers operation. A readback bit (0x1F<6>) indicates when a VCO calibration is finished by returning a logic true (that is, 1b).
The sequence of operations for the VCO calibration is:

ogram the PLL registers to the proper values for the PLL loop.

A SYNC is executed during the VCO calibration; therefore, the o
utputs of the AD9517 are held static during the calibration, which prevents unwanted frequencies from being produced. However, at the end of a VCO calibration, the outputs may resume clocking before the PLL loop is completely settled.
The VCO calibration clock divider is set as shown in Tabl e 53 (0x18<2:1>).
The calibration divider divides the PFD frequency (reference f
requency divided by R) down to the calibration clock. The calibration occurs at the PFD frequency divided by the calibration divider setting. Lower VCO calibration clock frequencies result in longer times for a calibration to be completed.

VCO calibration must be manually initiated. This allows for flexibility in deciding what order to program registers and when to initiate a calibration, instead of having it happen every time certain PLL registers have their values change. For example, this allows for the VCO frequency to be changed by small amounts without having an automatic calibration occur each time; this should be done with caution and only when the user knows the VCO control voltage is not going to exceed the nominal best performance limits. For example, a few 100 kHz steps are fine, but a few MHz might not be. Additionally, because the calibration procedure results in rapid changes in the VCO frequency, the distribution section is automatically placed in SYNC until the calibration is finished. Therefore, this temporary loss of outputs must be expected.
A VCO calibration should be initiated under the following
nditions:
co

or after a change in the PLL reference clock frequency. This, in effect, means any time a PLL register or reference clock is changed such that a different VCO frequency results.
henever system calibration is desired. The VCO is designed
W
to operate properly over extremes of temperatures even when it is first calibrated at the opposite extreme. However, a VCO calibration can be initiated at any time, if desired.

CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

A clock channel consists of a pair (or double pair, in the case of CMOS) of outputs that share a common divider. A clock output consists of the drivers that connect to the output pins. The clock outputs have either LVPECL or LVDS/CMOS signal levels at the pins.
The AD9517 has four clock channels: two channels are LVPECL (
four outputs); two channels are LVDS/CMOS (up to four
LVDS outputs or up to eight CMOS outputs).
Each channel has its own programmable divider that divides
he clock frequency applied to its input. The LVPECL channel
t dividers contain a divider that can divide by any integer from 1 to 32. Each LVDS/CMOS channel divider contains two cascaded dividers that can be set to divide by any integer from 1 to 32. The total division of the channel is the product of the divide value of the two cascaded dividers. This allows divide values of (1 to 32) × (1 to 32), or up to 1024 (notice that this is not all values from 1 to 1024 but only the set of numbers that are the product of the two dividers).
Because the internal VCO frequency is above the maximum c
hannel divider input frequency (1600 MHz), the VCO divider must be used after the on-chip VCO. The VCO divider can be set to divide by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. External clock signals connected to the CLK input also require the VCO divider if the frequency of the signal is greater than 1600 MHz.
The channel dividers allow for a selection of various duty cycles, dep
ending on the currently set division. That is, for any specific division, D, the output of the divider can be set to high for N + 1 input clock cycles and low for M + 1 input clock cycles (where D = N + M + 2). For example, a divide-by-5 can be high for one divider input cycle and low for four cycles, or a divide­by-5 can be high for three divider input cycles and low for two cycles. Other combinations are also possible.
The channel dividers include a duty-cycle correction function tha
t can be disabled. In contrast to the selectable duty cycle just described, this function can correct a non-50% duty cycle caused by an odd division. However, this requires that the division be set by M = N + 1.
In addition, the channel dividers allow a coarse phase offset or
y to be set. Depending on the division selected, the output
dela can be delayed by up to 31 input clock cycles. The divider outputs can also be set to start high or to start low.
Internal VCO or External CLK as Clock Source
The clock distribution of the AD9517 has two clock input sources: an internal VCO and an external clock connected to the CLK/ chosen as the source of the clock signal to distribute. When the internal VCO is selected as the source, the VCO divider must be used. When CLK is selected as the source, it is not necessary to use the VCO divider if the CLK frequency is less than the maximum channel divider input frequency (1600 MHz); otherwise, the VCO divider must be used to reduce the frequency to one acceptable by the channel dividers. s
hows how the VCO, CLK, and VCO divider are selected. 0x1E1<1:0> selects the channel divider source and determines whether the VCO divider is used. It is not possible to select the VCO without using the VCO divider.

It is possible to connect either the internal VCO or the CLK (whichever is selected as the input to the VCO divider) directly to the LVPECL outputs, OUT0 to OUT3. This configuration can pass frequencies up to the maximum frequency of the VCO directly to the LVPECL outputs. The LVPECL outputs may not be able to provide a full voltage swing at the highest frequencies.

To connect the LVPECL outputs directly to the internal VCO or CLK, the VCO divider must be selected as the source to the distribution section, even if no channel uses it.

Clock Frequency Division
The total frequency division is a combination of the VCO divider (when used) and the channel divider. When the VCO divider is used, the total division from the VCO or CLK to the output is the product of the VCO divider (2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) and the division of the channel divider. indi

The channel dividers feeding the LVPECL output drivers contain one 2-to-32 frequency divider. This divider provides for division by 1 to 32. Division by 1 is accomplished by bypassing the divider. The dividers also provide for a programmable duty cycle, with optional duty-cycle correction when the divide ratio is odd. A phase offset or delay in increments of the input clock cycle is selectable. The channel dividers operate with a signal at their inputs up to 1600 MHz. The features and settings of the dividers are selected by programming the appropriate setup and control registers (see
Tabl e 51 through Tab le 6 1).
VCO Divider
The VCO divider provides frequency division between the internal VCO or the external CLK input and the clock distribution channel dividers. The VCO divider can be set to divide by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 (see Tab le 5 9 , 0x1E0<2:0>).
Channel Dividers—LVPECL Outputs
Each pair of LVPECL outputs is driven by a channel divider. There are two channel dividers (0, 1) driving four LVPECL outputs (OUT0 to OUT3). Tabl e 34 gives the register locations u
sed for setting the division and other functions of these dividers. The division is set by the values of M and N. The divider can be bypassed (equivalent to divide-by-1, divider circuit is powered down) by setting the bypass bit. The duty-cycle correction can be enabled or disabled according to the setting of the DCCOFF bits.

Duty Cycle and Duty-Cycle Correction (0, 1)
The duty cycle of the clock signal at the output of a channel is a result of some or all of the following conditions:
hat are the M and N values for the channel?
W
I
s the DCC enabled?
I
s the VCO divider used?
Wh
at is the CLK input duty cycle? (The internal VCO has a
50% duty cycle.)
The DCC function is enabled by default for each channel
er. However, the DCC function can be disabled
divid individually for each channel divider by setting the DCCOFF bit for that channel.
Certain M and N values for a channel divider result in a non­50% d
uty cycle. A non-50% duty cycle can also result with an even division if M ≠ N. The duty-cycle correction function automatically corrects non-50% duty cycles at the channel divider output to 50% duty cycle. Duty-cycle correction requires the following channel divider conditions:
A
n even division must be set as M = N
An o
dd division must be set as M = N + 1
When not bypassed or corrected by the DCC function, the duty
ycle of each channel divider output is the numerical value of
c (N + 1)/(N + M + 2) expressed as a %.
The duty cycle at the output of the channel divider for various co
nfigurations is shown in Tabl e 3 5 to Ta ble 37.

Phase Offset or Coarse Time Delay (0, 1)
Each channel divider allows for a phase offset, or a coarse time delay, to be programmed by setting register bits (see Ta b le 3 8). Th
ese settings determine the number of cycles (successive rising edges) of the channel divider input frequency by which to offset, or delay, the rising edge of the output of the divider. This delay is with respect to a nondelayed output (that is, with a phase offset of zero). The amount of the delay is set by five bits loaded into the phase offset (PO) register plus the start high (SH) bit for each channel divider. When the start high bit is set, the delay is also affected by the number of low cycles (M) programmed for the divider.
It is necessary to use the SYNC function to make phase offsets
fective (see the Synchronizing the Outputs—SYNC Function
ef secti
on).

Channel Dividers—LVDS/CMOS Outputs
Channel Divider 2 and Channel Divider 3 each drive a pair of LVDS out p uts , g i v i n g f ou r LV D S o utputs (OUT4 to OUT7). Alternatively, each of these LVDS differential outputs can be configured individually as a pair (A and B) of CMOS single­ended outputs, providing for up to eight CMOS outputs. By default, the B output of each pair is off but can be turned on as desired.
Channel Divider 2 and Channel Divider 3 each consist of two

In no case can the fine delay exceed one-half of the output clock p
eriod. If a delay longer than half of the clock period is attempted,
the output stops clocking.
The delay function adds some jitter greater than that specified
r the nondelayed output. This means that the delay function
fo should be used primarily for clocking digital chips, such as FPGA, ASIC, DUC, and DDC. An output with this delay enabled may not be suitable for clocking data converters. The jitter is higher for long full scales because the delay block uses a ramp and trip points to create the variable delay. A slower ramp time produces more time jitter.
Synchronizing the Outputs—SYNC Function
The AD9517 clock outputs can be synchronized to each other. Outputs can be individually excluded from synchronization. Synchronization consists of setting the nonexcluded outputs to a preset set of static conditions and subsequently releasing these outputs to continue clocking at the same instant with the preset conditions applied. This allows for the alignment of the edges of two or more outputs or for the spacing of edges according to the coarse phase offset settings for two or more outputs.

A SYNC operation brings all outputs that have not been
uded (by the nosync bit) to a preset condition before
excl allowing the outputs to begin clocking in synchronicity. The preset condition takes into account the settings in each of the channel’s start high bit and its phase offset. These settings govern both the static state of each output when the SYNC operation is happening and the state and relative phase of the outputs when they begin clocking again upon completion of the SYNC operation. Between outputs and after synchronization, this allows for the setting of phase offsets.
The AD9517 outputs are in pairs, sharing a channel divider per p
air (two pairs of pairs, four outputs, in the case of CMOS). The
synchronization conditions apply to both outputs of a pair.
Each channel (a divider and its outputs) can be excluded from
ny SYNC operation by setting the nosync bit of the channel.
a Channels that are set to ignore SYNC (excluded channels) do not set their outputs static during a SYNC operation, and their outputs are not synchronized with those of the nonexcluded channels.
Clock Outputs
The AD9517 offers three output level choices: LVPECL, LVDS, and CMOS. OUT0 to OUT3 are LVPECL differential outputs; and OUT4 to OUT7 are LVDS/CMOS outputs. These outputs can be configured as either LVDS differential or as pairs of single-ended CMOS outputs.

LVPECL Outputs: OUT0 to OUT3
The LVPECL differential voltage (VOD) is selectable from ~400 mV to ~960 mV (see 0xF0:0xF5<3:2>). The LVPECL outputs have dedicated pins for power supply (VS_LVPECL), allowing a separate power supply to be used. V
S_LVPECL
can be
from 2.5 V to 3.3 V.
The LVPECL output polarity can be set as noninverting or in
verting, which allows for the adjustment of the relative polarity of outputs within an application without requiring a board layout change. Each LVPECL output can be powered down or powered up as needed. Because of the architecture of the LVPECL output stages, there is the possibility of electrical overstress and breakdown under certain power-down conditions. For this reason, the LVPECL outputs have several power-down modes. This includes a safe power-down mode that continues to protect the output devices while powered down, although it consumes somewhat more power than a total power-down. If the LVPECL output pins are terminated, it is best to select the safe power-down mode. If the pins are not connected (unused), it is acceptable to use the total power-down mode.

LVDS/CMOS Outputs: OUT4 to OUT7
OUT4 to OUT7 can be configured as either an LVDS differential output or as a pair of CMOS single-ended outputs. The LVDS outputs allow for selectable output current from ~1.75 mA to ~7 mA.
The LVDS output polarity can be set as noninverting or in

OUT4 to OUT7 can also be CMOS outputs. Each LVDS output can be configured to be two CMOS outputs. This provides for up to eight CMOS outputs: OUT4A, OUT4B, OUT5A, OUT5B, OUT6A, OUT6B, OUT7A, and OUT7B. When an output is configured as CMOS, the CMOS Output A is automatically turned on. The CMOS Output B can be turned on or off independently. The relative polarity of the CMOS outputs can also be selected for any combination of inverting and noninverting. See Tabl e 56 , 0x140<7:5>, 0x141<7:5>, 0x142<7:5>, and 0x143<7:5>.
Each LVDS/CMOS output can be powered down as needed to
ave power. The CMOS output power-down is controlled by the
s same bit that controls the LVDS power-down for that output. This power-down control affects both the CMOS A and CMOS B outputs. However, when the CMOS A output is powered up, the CMOS B output can be powered on or off separately.

RESET MODES

The AD9517 has several ways to force the chip into a reset condition that restores all registers to their default values and makes these settings active.
Power-On Reset—Start-Up Conditions When VS Is Applied
A power-on reset (POR) is issued when the VS power supply is turned on. This initializes the chip to the power-on conditions that are determined by the default register settings. These are indicated in the Default Value (Hex) column of Tab l e 5 1 . At p
ower-on, the AD9517 also executes a SYNC operation, which brings the outputs into phase alignment according to the default settings.
Asynchronous Reset via the
RESET
Pin
An asynchronous hard reset is executed by momentarily pulling RESET
low. A reset restores the chip registers to the default
settings.
Soft Reset via 0x00<5>
A soft reset is executed by writing 0x00<5> and 0x00<2> = 1b. This bit is not self-clearing; therefore, it must be cleared by writing 0x00<5> and 0x00<2> = 0b to reset it and complete the soft reset operation. A soft reset restores the default values to the internal registers. The soft reset bit does not require an update registers command (0x232) to be issued.

POWER-DOWN MODES

Chip Power-Down via PD
The AD9517 can be put into a power-down condition by
PD
pulling the functions and currents inside the AD9517. The chip remains in this power-down state until When woken up, the AD9517 returns to the settings programmed into its registers prior to the power-down, unless the registers are changed by new programming while the

If the AD9517 clock outputs must be synchronized to each other, a SYNC is required upon exiting power-down (see the Synchronizing the Outputs—SYNC Function section). A VCO
libration is not required when exiting power-down.
ca
PLL Power-Down
The PLL section of the AD9517 can be selectively powered down. There are three PLL operating modes set by 0x10<1:0>, as shown in Tab l e 5 3 .
In asynchronous power-down mode, the device powers down as
oon as the registers are updated.
s
In synchronous power-down mode, the PLL power-down is ga
ted by the charge pump to prevent unwanted frequency jumps. The device goes into power-down on the occurrence of the next charge pump event after the registers are updated.
Distribution Power-Down
The distribution section can be powered down by writing 0x230<1> = 1b. This turns off the bias to the distribution section. If the LVPECL power-down mode is normal operation (00b), it is possible for a low impedance load on that LVPECL output to draw significant current during this power-down. If the LVPECL power-down mode is set to 11b, the LVPECL output is not protected from reverse bias and can be damaged under certain termination conditions.
Individual Clock Output Power-Down
Any of the clock distribution outputs may be powered down individually by writing to the appropriate registers. The register map details the individual power-down settings for each output (see
Tabl e 51 ). The LVDS/CMOS outputs may be powered
wn, regardless of their output load configuration.
do
The LVPECL outputs have multiple power-down modes (see Tabl e 55 ), which give some flexibility in dealing with the va
rious output termination conditions. When the mode is set to 10b, the LVPECL output is protected from reverse bias to 2 VBE + 1 V. If the mode is set to 11b, the LVPECL output is not protected from reverse bias and can be damaged under certain termination conditions. This setting also affects the operation when the distribution block is powered down with 0x230<1> = 1b (see the
Individual Circuit Block Power-Down
Other AD9517 circuit blocks (such as CLK, REF1, and REF2) can be powered down individually. This gives flexibility in configuring the part for power savings whenever certain chip functions are not needed.

SERIAL CONTROL PORT

The AD9517 serial control port is a flexible, synchronous, serial communications port that allows an easy interface with many industry-standard microcontrollers and microprocessors. The AD9517 serial control port is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats, including both the Motorola SPI® and Intel® SSR® protocols. The serial control port allows read/write access to all registers that configure the AD9517. Single- or multiple­byte transfers are supported, as well as MSB first or LSB first transfer formats. The AD9517 serial control port can be configured for a single bidirectional I/O pin (SDIO only) or for two unidirectional I/O pins (SDIO/SDO). By default, the AD9517 is in bidirectional mode, long instruction (long instruction is the only instruction mode supported).

SERIAL CONTROL PORT PIN DESCRIPTIONS

SCLK (serial clock) is the serial shift clock. This pin is an input. SCLK is used to synchronize serial control port reads and writes. Write data bits are registered on the rising edge of this clock, and read data bits are registered on the falling edge. This pin is internally pulled down by a 30 kΩ resistor to ground.
SDIO (serial data input/output) is a dual-purpose pin and acts
ther an input only (unidirectional mode) or as both an
as ei input/output (bidirectional mode). The AD9517 defaults to the bidirectional I/O mode (0x00<7> = 0).
SDO (s
erial data out) is used only in the unidirectional I/O
mode (0x00<7>) as a separate output pin for reading back data.
(chip select bar) is an active low control that gates the read
CS and write cycles. When
is high, SDO and SDIO are in a high
CS
impedance state. This pin is internally pulled up by a 30 kΩ resistor to VS.

an be transferred in a continuous stream. The register address
c is automatically incremented or decremented (see the
rst Transfers section).
Fi

byte to be transferred, thereby ending the stream mode.

Communication Cycle—Instruction Plus Data

There are two parts to a communication cycle with the AD9517. The first writes a 16-bit instruction word into the AD9517, coincident with the first 16 SCLK rising edges. The instruction word provides the AD9517 serial control port with information regarding the data transfer, which is the second part of the communication cycle. The instruction word defines whether the upcoming data transfer is a read or a write, the number of bytes in the data transfer, and the starting register address for the first byte of the data transfer.

Write

If the instruction word is for a write operation, the second part is the transfer of data into the serial control port buffer of the AD9517. Data bits are registered on the rising edge of SCLK.
The length of the transfer (1, 2, 3 bytes or streaming mode) is
cated by two bits (W1:W0) in the instruction byte. When
indi the transfer is 1, 2, or 3 bytes, but not streaming,
CS
can be
raised after each sequence of eight bits to stall the bus (except after the last byte, where it ends the cycle). When the bus is stalled, the serial transfer resumes when
is lowered. Raising CS
CS
on a nonbyte boundary resets the serial control port. During a write, streaming mode does not skip over reserved or blank registers; therefore, the user must know what bit pattern to write to the reserved registers to preserve proper operation of the part. It does not matter what data is written to blank registers.
Because data is written into a serial control port buffer area, not dir
ectly into the actual control registers of the AD9517, an additional operation is needed to transfer the serial control port buffer contents to the actual control registers of the AD9517, thereby causing them to become active. The update registers operation consists of setting 0x232<0> = 1b (this bit is self­clearing). Any number of bytes of data can be changed before executing an update registers. The update registers simultaneously actuates all register changes that have been written to the buffer since any previous update.

Read

If the instruction word is for a read operation, the next N × 8 SCLK c
ycles clock out the data from the address specified in the instruction word, where N is 1 to 3 as determined by W1:W0. If N = 4, the read operation is in streaming mode, continuing until
is raised. Streaming mode does not skip over reserved
CS
or blank registers. The readback data is valid on the falling edge of SCLK.
The default mode of the AD9517 serial control port is the
idirectional mode. In bidirectional mode, both the sent data
b and the readback data appear on the SDIO pin. It is also possible to set the AD9517 to unidirectional mode (SDO enable register, 0x00<7>). In unidirectional mode, the readback data appears on the SDO pin.
A readback request reads the data that is in the serial control po
rt buffer area, or the data in the active registers (see Figure 61).
Re
adback of the buffer or active registers is controlled by 0x04<0>.
The AD9517 supports only the long instruction mode; therefore, 0x00<4:3> m
ust be set to 11b (this register uses mirrored bits).
Long instruction mode is the default at power-up or reset.
The AD9517 uses Register Address 0x00 to Register A
ddress 0x232.

THE INSTRUCTION WORD (16 BITS)

The MSB of the instruction word is R/W, which indicates whether the instruction is a read or a write. The next two bits, W1:W0, indicate the length of the transfer in bytes. The final 13 bits are the address (A12:A0) at which to begin the read or write operation.
For a write, the instruction word is followed by the number of b
ytes of data indicated by Bits W1:W0 (see Tab l e 4 7 ).
Table 47. Byte Transfer Count
W1
0 0 1 0 1 2 1 1 1 Streaming mode
W0 Bytes to Transfer
0 3
A12:A0: These 13 bits select the address within the register map that is written to or read from during the data transfer portion of the communications cycle. Only Bits<A9:A0> are needed to cover the range of the 0x232 registers used by the AD9517. Bits<A12:A10> must always be 0b. For multibyte transfers, this address is the starting byte address. In MSB first mode, subsequent bytes increment the address.

MSB/LSB FIRST TRANSFERS

The AD9517 instruction word and byte data can be MSB first or LSB first. Any data written to 0000 must be mirrored; the upper four bits (7:4) must mirror the lower four bits (3:0). This makes it irrelevant whether LSB first or MSB first is in effect. As an example of this mirroring, see the default setting for this register: 0x18, which mirrors Bit 4 and Bit 3. This sets the long instruction mode (default, and is the only mode supported).
The default for the AD9517 is MSB first.
When LSB first is set by 0x00<2> and 0x00<6>, it takes effect
ediately, because it only affects the operation of the serial
imm control port and does not require that an update be executed.
When MSB first mode is active, the instruction and data bytes m
ust be written from MSB to LSB. Multibyte data transfers in MSB first format start with an instruction byte that includes the register address of the most significant data byte. Subsequent data bytes must follow in order from the high address to the low address. In MSB first mode, the serial control port internal address generator decrements for each data byte of the multibyte transfer cycle.
When LSB first is active, the instruction and data bytes must be written from LSB to MSB. Multibyte data transfers in LSB first format start with an instruction byte that includes the register address of the least significant data byte followed by multiple data bytes. The internal byte address generator of the serial control port increments for each byte of the multibyte transfer cycle.
The AD9517 serial control port register address decrements f
rom the register address just written toward 0x00 for multibyte I/O operations if the MSB first mode is active (default). If the LSB first mode is active, the register address of the serial control port increments from the address just written toward 0x232 for multibyte I/O operations.
Streaming mode always terminates when it hits Address 0x232. Note that unused addresses are not skipped during multibyte I/O operations.

<2> <1> VCO Calibration Clock Divider
Bit used to initiate the VCO calibration. This bit must be toggled from 0 to 1 in the active registers. The sequence to initiate a calibration is: program to a 0, followed by an update bit (Register 0x232<0>); then programmed to 1, followed by another update bit (Register 0x232<0>). This sequence gives complete control over when the VCO calibration occurs relative to the programming of other registers that can impact the calibration.

APPLICATION NOTES

USING THE AD9517 OUTPUTS FOR ADC CLOCK APPLICATIONS

Any high speed ADC is extremely sensitive to the quality of its sampling clock. An ADC can be thought of as a sampling mixer, and any noise, distortion, or timing jitter on the clock is combined with the desired signal at the analog-to-digital output. Clock integrity requirements scale with the analog input frequency and resolution, with higher analog input frequency applications at ≥14-bit resolution being the most stringent. The theoretical SNR of an ADC is limited by the ADC resolution and the jitter on the sampling clock. Considering an ideal ADC of infinite resolution where the step size and quantization error can be ignored, the available SNR can be expressed approximately by

Many high performance ADCs feature differential clock inputs t
o simplify the task of providing the required low jitter clock on a noisy PCB. (Distributing a single-ended clock on a noisy PCB can result in coupled noise on the sample clock. Differential distribution has inherent common-mode rejection that can provide superior clock performance in a noisy environment.) The AD9517 features both LVPECL and LVDS outputs that provide differential clock outputs, which enable clock solutions that maximize converter SNR performance. The input requirements of the ADC (differential or single-ended, logic level termination) should be considered when selecting the best clocking/converter solution.

LVPECL CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

The LVPECL outputs of the AD9517 provide the lowest jitter clock signals available from the AD9517. The LVPECL outputs (because they are open emitter) require a dc termination to bias the output transistors. The simplified equivalent circuit in Figure 57 shows the LVPECL output stage.
In most applications, an LVPECL far-end Thevenin termination

LVDS CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

The AD9517 provides four clock outputs (OUT4 to OUT7) that are selectable as either CMOS or LVDS level outputs. LVDS is a differential output option that uses a current mode output stage. The nominal current is 3.5 mA, which yields 350 mV output swing across a 100 Ω resistor. The LVDS output meets or exceeds all ANSI/TIA/EIA-644 specifications.
A recommended termination circuit for the LVDS outputs is shown i
n Figure 71.

CMOS CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

The AD9517 provides four clock outputs (OUT4 to OUT7) that are selectable as either CMOS or LVDS level outputs. When selected as CMOS, each output becomes a pair of CMOS outputs, each of which can be individually turned on or off and set as noninverting or inverting. These outputs are 3.3 V CMOS compatible.
Whenever single-ended CMOS clocking is used, some of the
lowing general guidelines should be used.
fol
Point-to-point nets should be designed such that a driver has only one receiver on the net, if possible. This allows for simple termination schemes and minimizes ringing due to possible mismatched impedances on the net. Series termination at the source is generally required to provide transmission line matching and/or to reduce current transients at the driver. The value of the resistor is dependent on the board design and timing requirements (typically 10 Ω to 100 Ω is used). CMOS outputs are also limited in terms of the capacitive load or trace length that they can drive. Typically, trace lengths less than 3 inches are recommended to preserve signal rise/fall times and preserve signal integrity.

Because of the limitations of single-ended CMOS clocking, consider using differential outputs when driving high speed signals over long traces. The AD9517 offers both LVPECL and LVDS outputs that are better suited for driving long traces where the inherent noise immunity of differential signaling provides superior performance for clocking converters.
