APPLICATIONS

Low jitter, low phase noise clock distribution Clock generation and translation for SONET, 10Ge, 10G FC,

and other 10 Gbps protocols Forward error correction (G.710) Clocking high speed ADCs, DACs, DDSs, DDCs, DUCs, MxFEs High performance wireless transceivers ATE and high performance instrumentation Broadband infrastructures

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9520-41 provides a multioutput clock distribution

The AD9520 serial interface supports both SPI and IC® ports. An in-package EEPROM can be programmed through the serial interface and store user-defined register setting for power-up and chip reset.

The AD9520 features 12 LVPECL outputs in four groups. Any of the 1.6 GHz LVPECL outputs can be reconfigured as two 250 MHz CMOS outputs.

Each group of outputs has a divider that allows both the divide ratio (from 1 to 32) and phase (coarse delay) to be set.

The AD9520 is available in a 64-lead LFCSP and can be operated from a single 3.3 V supply. The external VCO can have an operating voltage up to 5.5 V. A separate output driver power supply can be from 2.375 V to 3.465 V.

The AD9520 is specified for operation over the standard industrial range of −40°C to +85°C.

function with subpicosecond jitter performance, along with an on-chip PLL and VCO. The on-chip VCO tunes from 1.4 GHz to

1.8 GHz. An external 3.3 V/5 V VCO/VCXO of up to 2.4 GHz can also be used.

The AD9520 is used throughout this data sheet to refer to all the members of the AD9520 family. However, when AD9520-4 is used, it is referring to that specific

member of the AD9520 family.

NOISE CHARACTERISTICS

In-Band Phase Noise of the Charge Pump/

Phase Frequency Detector (In-Band Means Within the LBW of the PLL)

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) @ 500 kHz PFD Frequency −165 dBc/Hz @ 1 MHz PFD Frequency −162 dBc/Hz @ 10 MHz PFD Frequency −152 dBc/Hz @ 50 MHz PFD Frequency −144 dBc/Hz

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); PLL figure of

TERMINOLOGY

Phase Jitter and Phase Noise

An ideal sine wave can be thought of as having a continuous and even progression of phase with time from 0° to 360° for 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 sine 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/Hertz at a given offset in frequency from the sine wave (carrier). The value is a ratio (expressed in decibels) 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 some interval of offset frequencies (for example, 10 kHz to 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 ADCs, DACs, and RF mixers. It lowers the achievable dynamic 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 domain, 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 ADC decreases the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and dynamic 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 attributable to the device or subsystem being measured. The phase noise of any external oscillators or clock sources are 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 contribute 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.

Additive Time Jitter

Additive time jitter is the amount of time jitter that is attributable to the device or subsystem being measured. The time jitter of any external oscillators or clock sources are subtracted. This makes it possible to predict the degree to which the device impacts the total system time jitter when used in conjunction with the various oscillators and clock sources, each of which contribute its own time jitter to the total. In many cases, the time jitter of the external oscillators and clock sources dominates the system time jitter.
