GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9522-11 provides a multioutput clock distribution function with subpicosecond jitter performance, along with an
The AD9522 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 settings for power-up and chip reset.
The AD9522 features 12 LVDS outputs in four groups. Any of the 800 MHz LVDS 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 the phase (coarse delay) to be set.
The AD9522 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.
The AD9522 is specified for operation over the standard industrial range of −40°C to +85°C.
The AD9520-1 is an equivalent part to the AD9522-1 featuring LVPECL/CMOS drivers instead of LVDS/CMOS drivers.

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
merit decreases with decreasing slew rate; see Figure 12

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 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/Hz 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 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 is 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 AD9522 can be configured in several ways. These configurations must be set up by loading the control registers (see Tabl e 48 to Ta ble 59). Each section or function must be individually programmed by setting the appropriate bits in the corresponding control register or registers. When the desired configuration is programmed, the user can store these values in the on-board EEPROM to allow the part to power up in the desired configuration without user intervention.

Mode 0: Internal VCO and Clock Distribution

When using the internal VCO and PLL, the VCO divider must be used to ensure that the frequency presented to the channel dividers does not exceed its specified maximum frequency (see Tabl e 3). The internal PLL uses an external loop filter to set the loop bandwidth. The external loop filter is also crucial to the loop stability.
When using the internal VCO, it is necessary to calibrate the VCO (0x018[0]) to ensure optimal performance.
For internal VCO and clock distribution applications, the register settings shown in Ta b le 2 2 should be used.
Table 22. Settings When Using Internal VCO
Register Description
0x010[1:0] = 00b PLL normal operation (PLL on) 0x010 to 0x01E
0x1E1[1] = 1b VCO selected as the source 0x01C[2:0] Enable reference inputs 0x1E0[2:0] Set VCO divider 0x1E1[0] = 0b

0x018[0] = 1b 0x232[0] = 1b
PLL settings; select and enable a reference input; set R, N (P, A, B), PFD polarity, and I according to the intended loop configuration

Mode 1: 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 is the only difference from Mode 2. Bypassing the VCO divider limits the frequency of the clock source to <1600 MHz (due to the maximum input frequency allowed at the channel dividers).
For clock distribution applications where the external clock is <1600 MHz, the register settings shown in Tab le 2 3 should be used.
Table 23. Settings for Clock Distribution < 1600 MHz
Register Description
0x010[1:0] = 01b PLL asynchronous power-down (PLL off ) 0x1E1[0] = 1b
0x1E1[1] = 0b CLK selected as the source
Bypass the VCO divider as the source for the distribution section
When using the internal PLL with an external VCO < 1600 MHz, the PLL must be turned on.
Table 24. Settings for Using Internal PLL with External VCO < 1600 MHz
Register Description
0x1E1[0] = 1b
0x010[1:0] = 00b
Bypass the VCO divider as the source for the distribution section
PLL normal operation (PLL on) along with other appropriate PLL settings in 0x010 to 0x01E
An external VCO/VCXO requires an external loop filter that must be connected between CP and the tuning pin of the VCO/ VCXO. This loop filter determines the loop bandwidth and stability of the PLL. Make sure to select the proper PFD polarity for the VCO/VCXO being used.
Table 25. Setting the PFD Polarity
Register Description
0x010[7] = 0b
0x010[7] = 1b
PFD polarity positive (higher control voltage produces higher frequency)
PFD polarity negative (higher control voltage produces lower frequency)

input is connected to the distribution section through the VCO divider (divide-by-1/divide-by-2/divide-by-3/divide-by-4/ divide-by-5/divide-by-6). This is a distribution-only mode that allows for an external input up to 2400 MHz (see ). The
Table 3 maximum frequency that can be applied to the channel dividers is 1600 MHz; therefore, higher input frequencies must be divided down before reaching the channel dividers.
When the PLL is enabled, this routing also allows the use of the PLL with an external VCO or VCXO with a frequency <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 6 are the default values of these registers at power-up or after a reset operation.

The AD9522 includes an on-chip PLL with an on-chip VCO. The PLL blocks can be used either with the on-chip VCO to 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 AD9522 PLL is useful for generating clock frequencies from a supplied reference frequency. This includes conversion of reference frequencies to much higher frequencies for subsequent division and distribution. In addition, the PLL can be used to clean up jitter and phase noise on a noisy reference. The exact choice of PLL parameters and loop dynamics is application specific. The flexibility and depth of the AD9522 PLL allow the part to be tailored to function in many different applications and signal environments.

Configuration of the PLL

The AD9522 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 for 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 Tabl e 48 and Ta ble 5 2) and by the design of the external loop filter.

Successful PLL operation and satisfactory PLL loop performance are highly dependent upon proper configuration of the PLL settings, and the design of the external loop filter is crucial to the proper operation of the PLL.
ADIsimCLK is a free program that can help with the design and exploration of the capabilities and features of the AD9522, including the design of the PLL loop filter. The AD9516 model found in ADIsimCLK Version 1.2 can also be used for modeling the AD9522 loop filter. It is available at www.analog.com/clocks.

Phase Frequency Detector (PFD)

The PFD takes inputs from the R divider and the N divider 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 0x017[1:0].
An important limit to keep in mind is the maximum frequency allowed into the PFD. The maximum input frequency into the PFD is a function of the antibacklash pulse setting, as specified in the phase/frequency detector (PFD) parameter in Tabl e 2.

AD9522-1

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 (0x010[3:2]) 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)
0.6 mA to 4.8 mA. The exact value of the CP current LSB is set by the CPRSET resistor, which is nominally 5.1 kΩ.

On-Chip VCO

The AD9522 includes an on-chip VCO covering the frequency range shown in Tab le 2 . Achieving low VCO phase noise was a priority in the design of the VCO.
To tune over the wide range of frequencies covered by this VCO, tuning ranges are used. The calibration procedure selects the correct range for the desired VCO frequency. See the VCO Calibration section for additional information.
The on-chip VCO is powered by an on-chip, low dropout (LDO), 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.
When using an external VCO/VCXO, the BYPASS and LF pins should be left floating. This configuration is shown in Figure 42.

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 a PLL that uses the internal VCO is shown in Figure 41. A loop filter must be calculated for each desired PLL configuration. The values of the components depend upon the VCO frequency, the K
VCO
, the PFD frequency, the CP current, the desired loop bandwidth, and the desired phase margin. The loop filter affects the phase noise, the loop settling time, and the loop stability. A basic knowledge of PLL theory is helpful for understanding loop filter design. ADIsimCLK can help with the calculation of a loop filter according to the application requirements.
When using an external VCO, the external loop filter should be referenced to ground. An example of an external loop filter for a PLL using an external VCO is shown in Figure 42.

PLL Reference Inputs

The AD9522 features a flexible PLL reference input circuit that allows a fully differential input, two separate single-ended inputs, or a 16.62 MHz to 33.33 MHz crystal oscillator with an on-chip maintaining amplifier. An optional reference clock doubler can be used to double the PLL reference frequency. The input frequency range for the reference inputs is specified in Table 2 . Both the differential and the single-ended inputs are self-biased, allowing for easy ac coupling of input signals. To increase isolation and reduce power, each single-ended input can be independently powered down.
Either a differential or a single-ended reference must be specifically enabled. All PLL reference inputs are off by default.
The differential input and the single-ended inputs share two pins, REFIN (REF1) and type is selected and controlled by 0x01C (see and ). Tabl e 48 Tab le 52
In single-ended mode, the AD9522 features a dc offset option. Setting 0x018[7] to 1b shifts the dc offset bias point down 140 mV. This option eliminates the risk of the reference inputs chattering when they are ac-coupled, and the reference clock disappears. When using the reference switchover, the single-ended reference inputs should be dc-coupled CMOS levels (with the AD9522 dc offset feature disabled). Alternatively, the inputs can be ac-coupled, and the dc offset feature can be enabled. The user should keep in mind, however, that the minimum input amplitude for the reference inputs is greater when the dc offset is turned on.
When the differential reference input is selected, the self-bias level of the two sides is offset slightly to prevent chattering of the input buffer when the reference is slow or missing. The specification for this voltage level can be found in Ta b le 2 . The input hysteresis increases the voltage swing required of the driver to overcome the offset.

The differential reference input receiver is powered down when it is not selected or when the PLL is powered down. The single­ended buffers power down when the PLL is powered down or when their respective 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 ( decoupled via a suitable capacitor to a quiet ground.

There are several configurable modes of reference switchover. The switchover can be performed manually or automatically. Manual switchover is performed either through Register 0x01C or by using the REF_SEL pin. The automatic switchover occurs when REF1 disappears. A switchover deglitch feature ensures which the PLL does not receive rising edges that are far out of alignment with the newly selected reference.
There are two automatic reference switchover modes (0x01C):
Prefer REF1. Switch from REF1 to REF2 when REF1
disappears. Return to REF1 from REF2 when REF1 returns.
Stay on REF2. Automatically switch to REF2 if REF1
disappears but do not switch back to REF1 if it reappears. The reference can be set back to REF1 manually at an appropriate time.

Reference Switchover

The AD9522 supports dual single-ended CMOS inputs, as well as a single differential reference input. In the dual single-ended reference mode, the AD9522 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 hitless switching of redundant references. When used in conjunction with the automatic holdover function, the AD9522 can achieve a worst­case reference input switchover with an output frequency disturbance as low as 10 ppm.
Rev. 0 | Page 35 of 84
In automatic mode, REF1 is monitored by REF2. If REF1 disappears (two consecutive falling edges of REF2 without an edge transition on REF1), REF1 is considered missing. On the next subsequent rising edge of REF2, REF2 is used as the reference clock to the PLL. If 0x01C[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 0x01C[3] = 1b, the user can control when to switch back to REF1. This is done by programming the part to manual reference select mode (0x01C[4] = 0b) and by ensuring that the registers and/or the REF_SEL pin are set to select the desired reference. Automatic mode can be reenabled when REF1 is reselected.
Manual switchover requires the presence of a clock on the reference input being switched to or that the deglitching feature be disabled (0x01C[7]).

Reference Divider R

07220-066
The reference inputs are routed to the reference divider, R. R (a 14-bit counter) can be set to any value from 0 to 16,383 by writing to 0x011 and 0x012. (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 Tab l e 2 ).
The R divider has its own reset. The R divider can be reset using the shared reset bit of the R, A, and B counters. It can also be reset by a
SYNC
operation.

VCO/VCXO Feedback Divider N: P, A, B, R

The N divider is a combination of a prescaler (P) and two counters, A and B. The total divider value is
N = (P × B) + A
where P can be 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32.
AD9522-1
Prescaler
The prescaler of the AD9522 allows for two modes of operation: a fixed divide (FD) mode of 1, 2, or 3, and a 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 Tabl e 52 , 0x016[2:0]. Not all modes are available at all frequencies (see Ta ble 2).
When operating the AD9522 in dual modulus mode, P/(P + 1), the equation used to relate the input reference frequency to the VCO output frequency is
f
= (f
VCO
/R) × (P × B + A) = f
REF

However, when operating the prescaler in FD Mode 1, FD Mode 2, or FD Mode 3, the A counter is not used (A = 0) and the equation simplifies to
f
= (f
VCO
/R) × (P × B) = f
REF
REF
× N/R
When A = 0, the divide is a fixed divide of P = 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32.
By using combinations of DM and FD modes, the AD9522 can achieve values of N from 1 to 262,175. Tabl e 2 9 shows how a 10 MHz reference input can be locked to any integer multiple of N.
Note that the same value of N can be derived in different ways, as illustrated by the case of N = 12. The user can choose a fixed divide mode P = 2 with B = 6, 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 B counter must be ≥3 or bypassed, and unlike the R counter, A = 0 is actually zero.
When the prescaler is in dual-modulus mode, the A counter must be less than the B counter.
The maximum input frequency to the A/B counter is reflected in the maximum prescaler output frequency (~300 MHz) specified in Tabl e 2. This is the prescaler input frequency (VCO or CLK) divided by P. For example, dual modulus P = 8/9 mode is not allowed if the VCO frequency is greater than 2400 MHz because the frequency going to the A/B counter is too high.
When the AD9522 B counter is bypassed (B = 1), the A counter should be set to zero, and the overall resulting divide is equal to the prescaler setting, P. The possible divide ratios in this mode are 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 16, and 32. This mode is useful only when an external VCO/VCXO is used because the frequency range of the internal VCO requires an overall feedback divider greater than 32.
Although manual reset is not normally required, the A/B counters have their own reset bit. Alternatively, the A and B counters can be reset using the shared reset bit of the R, A, and B counters. Note that these reset bits are not self-clearing.
R, A, and B Counters:

The R, A, and B counters can be reset simultaneously through the SYNC

R and N Divider Delays
Both the R and N dividers feature a programmable delay cell. These delays can be enabled to allow adjustment of the phase relationship between the PLL reference clock and the VCO or CLK. Each delay is controlled by three bits. The total delay range is about 1 ns. See 0x019 in Tab le 2 and Table 5 2.

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 digital lock detect 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 the value of the CPRSET resistor, as well as three settings: the digital lock detect window bit (0x018[4]), the antibacklash pulse width bit (0x017[1:0], see Tabl e 2), and the lock detect counter (0x018[6:5]). The lock and unlock detection values in Table 2 are for the nominal value of CPRSET = 5.11 k. Doubling the CPRSET value to 10 k doubles the values in Tab le 2.
A lock is not indicated until there is 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 (0x018[6:5]).
Note that it is possible in certain low (<500 Hz) loop bandwidth, high phase margin cases that the DLD can chatter during acqui­sition, which can cause the AD9522 to automatically enter and exit holdover. To avoid this problem, it is recommended that the user make provisions for a capacitor to ground on the LD pin so that current source digital lock detect (CSDLD) mode can be used.

Analog Lock Detect (ALD)

The AD9522 provides an ALD function that can be selected for use at the LD pin. There are two operating modes for ALD.
N-channel open-drain lock detect. This signal requires a
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.
P-channel open-drain lock detect. This signal requires a
pull-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.

Current Source Digital Lock Detect (CSDLD)

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 digital lock detect function.
The current source lock detect provides a current of 110 µA when DLD 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), LD = high happens only after the DLD is 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.
To use current source digital lock detect, do the following:
Place a capacitor to ground on the LD pin
Set 0x01A[5:0] = 0x04
Enable the LD pin comparator (0x01D[3] = 1)
The LD pin comparator senses the voltage on the LD pin, and the comparator output can be made available at the REFMON pin control (0x01B[4:0]) or the STATUS pin control (0x017[7:2]). The internal LD pin comparator trip point and hysteresis are given in Tabl e 17 . The voltage on the capacitor can also be sensed by an external comparator connected to the LD pin. In this case, enabling the on-board LD pin comparator is not necessary.
The user can asynchronously enable individual clock outputs only when CSDLD is high. To enable this feature, set the appropriate bits in the enable output on the CSDLD registers (0x0FC and 0x0FD).

Holdover

The AD9522 PLL has a holdover function. Holdover is implemented by placing the charge pump in a high impedance state. This function 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.
Both a manual holdover mode, using the
SYNC
pin, and an automatic holdover mode are provided. To use either function, the holdover function must be enabled (0x01D[0]).

External/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 enters a high impedance state immediately. To take the charge pump out of a high impedance state, take the
SYNC
pin high. The charge pump then leaves the 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 if there is no reference clock present.
The B counter (in the N divider) is reset synchronously with the charge 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 ignore

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 disappeared.
A flowchart of the automatic/internal holdover function operation is shown in Figure 47.

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 (CSDLD) mode. It is possible to disable the LD comparator (0x01D[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 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 (CSDLD) section).

When 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 reset synchronously with the charge 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 and reduces frequency errors during settling. 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.

After leaving holdover, the loop then reacquires lock and the LD pin must go high (if 0x01D[3] = 1) before it can reenter holdover.
The holdover function always responds to the state of the currently selected reference (0x01C). If the loop loses lock during a reference switchover (see the Reference Switchover section), holdover is triggered briefly until the next reference clock edge at the PFD.
The following registers affect the automatic/internal holdover function:
0x018[6:5]—lock detect counter. This changes how many
consecutive PFD cycles with edges inside the lock detect window are required for the DLD indicator to indicate lock. This impacts the time required before the LD pin can begin to charge as well as the delay from the end of a holdover event until the holdover function can be reengaged.
0x018[3]—disable digital lock detect. This bit must be set
to 0 to enable the DLD circuit. Internal/automatic holdover does not operate correctly without the DLD function enabled.
0x01A[5:0]—lock detect pin control. Set this to 000100b to
put it in the current source lock detect mode if using the LD pin comparator. Load the LD pin with a capacitor of an appropriate value.
0x01D[3]—enable LD pin comparator. 1 = enable; 0 =
disable. When disabled, the holdover function always senses the LD pin as high.
0x01D[1]—external holdover control.
0x01D[0]—enable holdover. If holdover is disabled, both
external and automatic/internal holdover are disabled.

Frequency Status Monitors

The AD9522 contains three frequency status monitors that are used to indicate if the PLL reference (or references in the case of single-ended mode) and the VCO have fallen below a threshold frequency. A diagram showing their location in the PLL is shown in Figure 48.
The PLL reference monitors have two threshold frequencies: normal and extended (see Tab le 1 7 ). The reference frequency monitor thresholds are selected in 0x01F.

VCO Calibration

The AD9522 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. The REFIN clock must come from a stable source external to the AD9522.
VCO calibration can be performed in two ways: automatically at power-up and manually. Automatic VCO calibration occurs when the EEPROM is set to automatically load the preprogrammed values in the EEPROM, and then automatically calibrate the VCO. A valid reference must be provided at power-up in order for the automatic calibration to complete. If this is not the case, the user must calibrate the VCO manually.
During the first initialization after a power-up or a reset of the AD9522, a manual VCO calibration sequence is initiated by setting 0x018[0] = 1b. This can be done as part of the initial setup before executing update registers (0x232[0] = 1b). Subsequent to the initial setup, a VCO calibration sequence is initiated by resetting 0x018[0] = 0b, executing an update registers operation, setting 0x018[0] = 1b, and executing another update registers operation. A readback bit (0x01F[6]) indicates when a VCO calibration is finished by returning a logic true (that is, 1b).
The sequence of operations for the VCO calibration follows:
1. Program the PLL registers to the proper values for the PLL
loop. Note that the VCO divider (0x1E0[2:0]) must not be set to static during VCO calibration.
2. For the initial setting of the registers after a power-up or
reset, initiate a VCO calibration by setting 0x018[0] = 1b. Subsequently, whenever a calibration is desired, the user must first clear 0x018[0] and update registers (0x232[0] = 1b) prior to initiating another VCO calibration.
3. A SYNC operation is initiated internally, causing the
outputs to go to a static state determined by normal SYNC function operation.
4. VCO is calibrated to the desired setting for the requested
VCO frequency.
5. Internally, the SYNC signal is released, allowing outputs to
continue clocking.
6. The PLL loop is closed.
7. PLL locks.
A SYNC is executed during the VCO calibration; therefore, the outputs of the AD9522 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 52
(0x018[2:1]).
Rev. 0 | Page 41 of 84
The calibration divider divides the PFD frequency (reference frequency 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.
The VCO calibration clock frequency is given by
f
CAL_CLOCK
= f
REFIN
/(R × cal_div)
where:
f
is the frequency of the REFIN signal.
REFIN
R is the value of the R counter. cal_div is the division set for the VCO calibration divider
(0x018[2:1]).
The user should choose a calibration divider such that the calibration frequency is less than 6.25 MHz. Tab le 3 0 shows the appropriate value for the calibration divider.

PFD Rate (MHz) Recommended VCO Calibration Divider
<12 Any 12 to 25 4, 8, 16 25 to 50 8, 16 50 to 100 16
The VCO calibration takes 4400 calibration clock cycles. Therefore, the VCO calibration time in PLL reference clock cycles is given by
Time to Calibrate VCO =
4400 × R × cal_div PLL Reference Clock Cycles
The AD9522 does not automatically recalibrate its VCO when the PLL settings change. This allows for flexibility in deciding that 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 will not exceed the nominal best performance limits. For example, a few 100 kHz steps are fine, but a few MHz steps may 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.
Initiate a VCO calibration under the following conditions:
After changing any of the PLL R, P, B, and A divider settings,
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.
Whenever system calibration is desired. The VCO is designed
to operate properly over extremes of temperature even when it is first calibrated at the opposite extreme. However, a VCO calibration can be initiated at any time, if desired.

ZERO DELAY OPERATION

Zero delay operation aligns the phase of the output clocks with the phase of the external PLL reference input. There are two zero delay modes on the AD9522: internal and external.

Internal Zero Delay Mode

The internal zero delay function of the AD9522 is achieved by feeding the output of Channel Divider 0 back to the PLL N divider. In Figure 49, the change in signal routing for internal zero delay mode is shown in blue.
Set Register 0x01E[2:1] = 01b to select thr internal zero delay mode. In the internal zero delay mode, the output of Channel Divider 0 is routed back to the PLL (N divider) through MUX3 and MUX1 (feedback path shown in blue in Figure 49). The PLL synchronizes the phase/edge of the output of Channel Divider 0 with the phase/edge of the reference input.
Because the channel dividers are synchronized to each other, the outputs of the channel dividers are synchronous with the reference input. Both the R delay and the N delay inside the PLL can be programmed to compensate for the propagation delay from the output drivers and PLL components to minimize the phase offset between the clock output and the reference input to achieve zero delay.

External Zero Delay Mode

The external zero delay function of the AD9522 is achieved by feeding one clock output back to the CLK input and ultimately back to the PLL N divider. In Figure 49, the change in signal routing for external zero delay mode is shown in red.
Set 0x01E[2:1] = 11b to select the external zero delay mode. In external zero delay mode, one of the twelve output clocks (OUT0 to OUT11) can be routed back to the PLL (N divider) through the CLK/
CLK
pins and through MUX3 and MUX1.
This feedback path is shown in red in . Figure 49
The user must specify which channel divider will be used for external zero delay mode in order for VCO calibration to work correctly. Channel Divider 0 is the default. Channel Divider 1, Channel Divider 2, or Channel Divider 3 can be selected for zero delay feedback by changing the value in Register 0x01E[4:3].
The PLL synchronizes the phase/edge of the feedback output clock with the phase/edge of the reference input. Because the channel dividers are synchronized to each other, the clock outputs are synchronous with the reference input. Both the R delay and the N delay inside the PLL can be programmed to compensate for the propagation delay from the PLL components to minimize the phase offset between the feedback clock and the reference input.

CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

A clock channel consists of three LVDS clock outputs or six CMOS clock outputs that share a common divider. A clock output consists of the drivers that connect to the output pins. The clock outputs have either LVDS or CMOS at the pins.
The AD9522 has four clock channels. Each channel has its own programmable divider that divides the clock frequency applied to its input. The channel dividers can divide by any integer from 1 to 32.
The AD9522 features a VCO divider that divides the VCO output by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 before going to the individual channel dividers. The VCO divider has two purposes. The first is to limit the maximum input frequency of the channel dividers to 1.6 GHz. The other is to allow the AD9522 to generate even lower frequencies than would be possible with only a simple post divider. External clock signals connected to the CLK input can also use the VCO divider.
The channel dividers allow for a selection of various duty cycles, depending 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 divide-by-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 that 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 delay to be set. Depending on the division selected, the output can be delayed by up to 15 input clock cycles. For example, if the frequency at the input of the channel divider is 1 GHz, the channel divider output can be delayed by up to 15 ns. The divider outputs can also be set to start high or to start low.

Operation Modes

There are three clock distribution operating modes, see Figure 50. One of these modes uses the internal VCO, whereas the other two modes bypass the internal VCO and use the signal provided on the CLK/
CLK
pins.
In Mode 0 (internal VCO mode), there are two signal paths available. In the first path, the VCO signal is sent to the VCO divider and then to the individual channel dividers. In the second path, the user bypasses the VCO and channel dividers and sends the VCO signal directly to the drivers.
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 going to the channel dividers.
Tabl e 31 shows 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.

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 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6) and the division of the channel divider. Table 3 2 indicates how the frequency division for a channel is set.

The channel dividers feeding the output drivers contain one 2-to-32 frequency divider. This divider provides for division-by-1 to division-by-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 48 through Tab le 5 9 ).
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 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 (see Tabl e 55 , 0x1E0[2:0]). However, when the VCO divider is set to 1, none of the channel output dividers can be bypassed.
The VCO divider can also be set to static, which is useful for applications where the only desired output frequency is the VCO frequency. Making the VCO divider static increases the wideband spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR). If the VCO divider is static during VCO calibration, there is no output signal. Therefore, it is recommended that the user calibrate the VCO with the VCO divider set to a nonstatic value during VCO calibration, and then set the VCO divider to static after VCO calibration is complete.
The same improvement in SFDR performance can also be achieved by setting the VCO divider to 1. This allows the user to program the EEPROM with the desired values and does not require further action after the VCO calibration is complete.

Channel Dividers

A channel divider drives each group of three LVDS outputs. There are four channel dividers (0, 1, 2, and 3) driving 12 LVDS outputs (OUT0 to OUT11). Tabl e 33 gives the register locations used 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 disable divider DCC bits.

Duty Cycle and Duty-Cycle Correction
The duty cycle of the clock signal at the output of a channel is a result of some or all of the following conditions:
The M and N values for the channel
DCC enabled/disabled
VCO divider enabled/bypassed
The CLK input duty cycle (note that the internal VCO has
a 50% duty cycle)
The DCC function is enabled by default for each channel divider. However, the DCC function can be disabled individually for each channel divider by setting the disable divider DCC bit for that channel.
Certain M and N values for a channel divider result in a non­50% duty 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.
Rev. 0 | Page 44 of 84
AD9522-1
Duty-cycle correction requires the following channel divider conditions:
An even division must be set as M = N.
An odd division must be set as M = N + 1.
When not bypassed or corrected by the DCC function, the duty cycle of each channel divider output is the numerical value of (N + 1)/(N + M + 2) expressed as a percent.
The duty cycle at the output of the channel divider for various configurations is shown in Tabl e 34 to Ta bl e 37.

The internal VCO has a duty cycle of 50%. Therefore, when the VCO divider equals 1, the duty cycle is 50%. If the CLK input is routed directly to the output, the duty cycle of the output is the same as the CLK input.
Phase Offset or Coarse Time Delay
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 ). These 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 effective (see the Synchronizing the Outputs—SYNC Function section).

Synchronizing the Outputs—SYNC Function

The AD9522 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. These conditions include the divider ratio and phase offsets for a given channel divider. This allows the user to specify different divide ratios and phase offsets for each of the four channel dividers. Releasing the
SYNC
pin allows the outputs to continue clocking with the preset conditions applied.
Synchronization of the outputs is executed in the following ways:
The
SYNC
pin is forced low and then released (manual sync).
By setting and then resetting any one of the following three
bits: the soft SYNC bit (0x230[0]), the soft reset bit (0x000[5] [mirrored]), and the power-down distribution reference bit (0x230[1]).
Synchronization of the outputs can be executed as part of
the chip power-up sequence.

The most common way to execute the SYNC function is to use the This requires a low going signal on the low and then released when synchronization is desired. The timing of the SYNC operation is shown in (using the VCO divider) and in (the VCO divider is not used). There is an uncertainty of up to one cycle of the clock at the input to the channel divider due to the asynchronous nature of the SYNC signal with respect to the clock edges inside the AD9522.
The pipeline delay from the of the synchronized output clocking is between 14 cycles and 15 cycles of clock at the channel divider input, plus one cycle of the VCO divider input (see ) or one cycle of the channel divider input (see ), depending on whether the VCO divider is used. Cycles are counted from the rising edge of the signal. In addition, there is an additional 1.2 ns (typical) delay from the SYNC signal to the internal synchronization logic, as well as the propagation delay of the output driver. The driver propagation delay is approximately 100 ps for the LVDS driver and approximately 1.5 ns for the CMOS driver.
Another common way to execute the SYNC function is by setting and resetting the soft SYNC bit at 0x230[0]. Both setting and resetting of the soft SYNC bit require an update all registers (0x232[0] = 1b) operation to take effect.
07220-071
A SYNC operation brings all outputs that have not been excluded (by the ignore SYNC bit) to a preset condition before 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. A SYNC operation must take place in order for the phase offsets setting to take effect.
The AD9522 differential LVDS outputs are four groups of three, sharing a channel divider per triplet. In the case of CMOS, each LVDS differential pair can be configured as two single-ended CMOS outputs. The synchronization conditions apply to all of the drivers that belong to that channel divider.
Each channel (a divider and its outputs) can be excluded from any SYNC operation by setting the ignore SYNC bit of the channel. 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 included channels.

LVDS Output Drivers

The AD9522 output drivers 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 inverting, which allows for the adjustment of the relative polarity of outputs within an application without requiring a board layout change. Each LVDS output can be individually powered down to save power.

CMOS Output Drivers

The user can also individually configure each LVDS output as a pair of CMOS outputs, which provides up to 24 CMOS outputs. When an output is configured as CMOS, CMOS Output A and CMOS Output B are automatically turned on. For a given differential pair, either CMOS Output A or Output B can be turned on or off independently. The user can also select the relative polarity of the CMOS outputs for any combination of inverting and noninverting (see Register 0x0F0 to Register 0x0FB).
The user can power down each CMOS output as needed to save power. The CMOS output power-down is individually controlled by the CMOS configuration bits (0x0F0[6:5] to 0x0FB[6:5]). The CMOS driver is in tristate when it is powered down.

RESET MODES

The AD9522 has a power-on reset (POR) and several other ways to apply a reset condition to the chip.

Power-On Reset

During chip power-up, a power-on reset pulse is issued when VS reaches ~2.6 V (<2.8 V) and restores the chip either to the setting stored in EEPROM (with the EEPROM pin = 1) or to the on-chip setting (with the EEPROM pin = 0). At power-on, the AD9522 also executes a SYNC operation, which brings the outputs into phase alignment according to the default settings. The output drivers are held in sync for the duration of the internally generated power-up sync timer (~70 ms). The outputs begin to toggle after this period.

A hard reset also executes a SYNC operation, which brings the outputs into phase alignment according to the default settings.

Soft Reset via the Serial Port

The serial port control register allows for a soft reset by setting Bit 2 and Bit 5 in Register 0x000. When Bit 5 and Bit 2 are set, the chip enters a soft reset mode and restores the chip either to the setting stored in EEPROM (the EEPROM pin = 1) or to the on-chip setting (the EEPROM pin = 0), except for Register 0x000.

Except for the self-clearing bits, Bit 2 and Bit 5, Register 0x000 retains its previous value prior to reset. During the internal reset, the outputs hold static. These bits are self-clearing. However, the self-clearing operation does not complete until an additional serial port SCLK cycle, and the AD9522 is held in reset until that happens.

Soft Reset to Settings in EEPROM When EEPROM Pin = 0 via the Serial Port

The serial port control register allows the chip to be reset to settings in EEPROM when the EEPROM pin = 1 via 0xB02[1]. This bit is self-clearing. This bit does not have any effect when the EEPROM pin = 0. It takes ~20 ms for the outputs to begin toggling after the Soft_EEPROM register is cleared.

POWER-DOWN MODES

Chip Power-Down via PD
The AD9522 can be put into a power-down condition by pulling

pin low. Power-down turns off most of the functions and
the currents inside the AD9522. The chip remains in this power-down state until power-down mode, the AD9522 returns to the settings programmed in its registers prior to the power-down, unless the registers are changed by new programming while the
Powering down the chip shuts down the currents on the chip. Because this is not a complete power-down, it can be called sleep mode. The AD9522 contains special circuitry to prevent runt pulses on the outputs when the chip is entering or exiting sleep mode.

PLL Power-Down

The PLL section of the AD9522 can be selectively powered down. There are two PLL power-down modes set by Register 0x010[1:0]: asynchronous and synchronous.
In asynchronous power-down mode, the device powers down as soon as the registers are updated. In synchronous power-down mode, the PLL power-down is gated by the charge pump to prevent unwanted frequency jumps. The device goes into power­down 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, which turns off the bias to the distribution section. If the LVDS power-down mode is in normal operation (0b), it is possible for a low impedance load on that LVDS output to draw significant current during this power-down. If the LVDS power­down mode is set to 1b, the LVDS 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 can be put into power­down mode by individually writing to the appropriate registers. The register map details the individual power-down settings for each output. These settings are found in Register 0x0F0[0] to Register 0x0FB[0].

Individual Clock Channel Power-Down

Any of the clock distribution channels can be powered down individually by writing to the appropriate registers. Powering down a clock channel is similar to powering down an individual driver, but it saves more power because the dividers are also powered down. Powering down a clock channel also automatically powers down the drivers connected to it. The register map details the individual power-down settings for each output channel. These settings are found in 0x192[2], 0x195[2], 0x198[2], and 0x19B[2].

SERIAL CONTROL PORT

The AD9522 serial control port is a flexible, synchronous serial communications port that allows an easy interface with many industry-standard microcontrollers and microprocessors. The AD9522 serial control port is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats, including Philips IC, Motorola® SPI®, and Intel® SSR protocols. The AD9522 IC implementation deviates from the classic IC specification on two specifications; these deviations are documented in Table 1 4 of this data sheet. The serial control port allows read/write access to all registers that configure the AD9522.

SPI/I²C PORT SELECTION

The AD9522 has two serial interfaces, SPI and IC. Users can select either SPI or IC depending on the states of the three logic level (high, open, low) input pins, SP1 and SP0. When both SP1 and SP0 are high, the SPI interface is active. Otherwise, IC is active with eight different IC slave address (seven bits wide) settings, see Tabl e 39. The four MSBs of the slave address are hardware coded as 1011, and the three LSBs are programmed by SP1 and SP0.

I²C SERIAL PORT OPERATION

The AD9522 IC port is based on the IC fast mode standard. The AD9522 supports both IC protocols: standard mode (100 kHz) and fast mode (400 kHz).
The AD9522 IC port has a 2-wire interface consisting of a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). In an IC bus system, the AD9522 is connected to the serial bus (data bus SDA and clock bus SCL) as a slave device, meaning that no clock is generated by the AD9522. The AD9522 uses direct 16-bit (two bytes) memory addressing instead of traditional 8-bit (one byte) memory addressing.

The no acknowledge bit is the ninth bit attached to any 8-bit data byte. A no acknowledge bit is always generated by the receiving device (receiver) to inform the transmitter that the byte has not been received. It is done by leaving the SDA line high during the ninth clock pulse after each 8-bit data byte.

Data Transfer Process

The master initiates data transfer by asserting a start condition. This indicates that a data stream follows. All IC slave devices connected to the serial bus respond to the start condition.
The master then sends an 8-bit address byte over the SDA line,
W
consisting of a 7-bit slave address (MSB first) plus an R/
bit. This bit determines the direction of the data transfer, that is, whether data is written to or read from the slave device (0 = write, 1 = read).
The peripheral whose address corresponds to the transmitted address responds by sending an acknowledge bit. All other devices on the bus remain idle while the selected device waits for data to be read from or written to it. If the R/
W
bit is 0, the
master (transmitter) writes to the slave device (receiver). If the
W
R/
bit is 1, the master (receiver) reads from the slave device
(transmitter).
The format for these commands is described in the Data Transfe r For mat section.

Data is then sent over the serial bus in the format of nine clock pulses, one data byte (8-bit) from either master (write mode) or slave (read mode) followed by an acknowledge bit from the receiving device. The number of bytes that can be transmitted per transfer is unrestricted. In write mode, the first two data bytes immediately after the slave address byte are the internal memory (control registers) address bytes with the high address byte first. This addressing scheme gives a memory address up to 2
16
− 1 = 65,535. The data bytes after these two memory address bytes are written into the control registers. In read mode, the data bytes after the slave address byte are read from the control registers.
When all data bytes are read or written, stop conditions are established. In write mode, the master (transmitter) asserts a stop condition to end data transfer during the (10th) clock pulse following the acknowledge bit for the last data byte from the slave device (receiver). In read mode, the master device (receiver) receives the last data byte from the slave device (transmitter) but does not pull it low during the ninth clock pulse. This is known as a no acknowledge bit. By receiving the no acknowledge bit, the slave device knows that the data transfer is finished and releases the SDA line. The master then takes the data line low during the low period before the 10th clock pulse and high during the 10th clock pulse to assert a stop condition.
A repeated start (Sr) condition can be used in place of a stop condition. Furthermore, a start or stop condition can occur at any time, and partially transferred bytes are discarded.

SPI SERIAL PORT OPERATION

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 either as an input only (unidirectional mode) or as an input/ output (bidirectional mode). The AD9522 defaults to the bidirectional I/O mode (0x000[7] = 0b).
SDO (serial data out) is used only in the unidirectional I/O mode (0x000[7] = 1b) as a separate output pin for reading back data.
CS
(chip select bar) is an active low control that gates the read and write cycles. When impedance state. This pin is internally pulled up by a 30 kΩ
resistor to VS.

SPI Mode Operation

In SPI mode, single or multiple byte transfers are supported, as well as MSB first or LSB first transfer formats. The AD9522 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 AD9522 is in bidirectional mode. Short instruction mode (8-bit instructions) is not supported. Only long (16-bit) instruction mode is supported.
A write or a read operation to the AD9522 is initiated by pulling CS
low.

During this period, the serial control port state machine enters a wait state until all data is sent. If the system controller decides to abort the transfer before all of the data is sent, the state machine must be reset by either completing the remaining transfers or by returning

CS

of the last byte to be transferred, thereby ending streaming mode.

Communication Cycle—Instruction Plus Data

There are two parts to a communication cycle with the AD9522. The first part writes a 16-bit instruction word into the AD9522, coincident with the first 16 SCLK rising edges. The instruction word provides the AD9522 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 AD9522. Data bits are registered on the rising edge of SCLK.
The length of the transfer (one, two, or three bytes, or streaming mode) is indicated by two bits (W1:W0) in the instruction byte. When the transfer is one, two, or three 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

CS
is lowered. Raising
During a write, streaming mode does not skip over reserved or blank registers, and the user can write 0x00 to the reserved register addresses.
Because data is written into a serial control port buffer area, not directly into the actual control registers of the AD9522, an additional operation is needed to transfer the serial control port buffer contents to the actual control registers of the AD9522, thereby causing them to become active. The update registers operation consists of setting 0x232[0] = 1b (this bit is self-clearing). 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

The AD9522 supports only the long instruction mode. If the instruction word is for a read operation, the next N × 8 SCLK cycles 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
CS
until
is raised. Streaming mode does not skip over reserved or blank registers. The readback data is valid on the falling edge of SCLK.
AD9522-1
The default mode of the AD9522 serial control port is the bidirectional mode. In bidirectional mode, both the sent data and the readback data appear on the SDIO pin. It is also possible to set the AD9522 to unidirectional mode (0x000[7] = 1 and 0x000[0] = 1). In unidirectional mode, the readback data appears on the SDO pin.
A readback request reads the data that is in the serial control port buffer area or the data that is in the active registers (see Figure 63). Readback of the buffer or active registers is controlled by 0x004[0].
The AD9522 uses Register Address 0x000 to Register Address 0xB03.

SPI INSTRUCTION WORD (16 BITS)

The MSB of the instruction word is R/ 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, see . Tabl e 44
For a write, the instruction word is followed by the number of bytes of data indicated by Bits[W1:W0], see Tab l e 42 .

Bits[A12:A0] 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 AD9522. 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.

SPI MSB/LSB FIRST TRANSFERS

The AD9522 instruction word and byte data can be MSB first or LSB first. Any data written to 0x000 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 0x000, which mirrors Bit 4 and Bit 3. This sets the long instruction mode, which is the default and the only mode supported.
The default for the AD9522 is MSB first.
When LSB first is set by 0x000[1] and 0x000[6], it takes effect immediately because it only affects the operation of the serial control port and does not require that an update be executed.
When MSB first mode is active, the instruction and data bytes must 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. In a multibyte transfer cycle, the internal byte address generator of the serial port increments for each byte.
The AD9522 serial control port register address decrements from the register address just written toward 0x000 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 reaches 0x232. Note that unused addresses are not skipped during multibyte I/O operations.

EEPROM OPERATIONS

The AD9522 contains an internal EEPROM (nonvolatile memory). The EEPROM can be programmed by users to create and store a user-defined register setting file when the power is off. This setting file can be used for power-up and chip reset as a default setting. The EEPROM size is 512 bytes.
During the data transfer process, the write and read registers via the serial port are generally not available except for one readback register, STATUS_EEPROM.
To determine the data transfer state through the serial port in SPI mode, users can read the value of STATUS_EEPROM (1 = in process and 0 = completed).
In IC mode, the user can address the AD9522 slave port with the external IC master (send an address byte to the AD9522). If the AD9522 responds with a no acknowledge bit, the data transfer process is not done. If the AD9522 responds with an acknowledge bit, the data transfer process is completed. The user can monitor the STATUS_EEPROM register or program the STATUS pin to monitor the status of the data transfer.

WRITING TO THE EEPROM

The EEPROM cannot be programmed directly through the serial port interface. To program the EEPROM and store a register setting file, do the following:
1. Program the AD9522 registers to the desired circuit state. If
the user wants the PLL to lock automatically after power-up, the VCO calibration now bit (0x018[0]) must be set to 1. This allows VCO calibration to start automatically after register loading. Note that a valid input reference signal must be present during VCO calibration.
2. Program the EEPROM buffer registers, if necessary (see
the Programming the EEPROM Buffer Segment section). This is only necessary if users want to use the EEPROM to control the default setting of some (but not all) of the AD9522 registers, or if they want to control the register setting update sequence during power-up or chip reset.
3. Set the enable EEPROM write bit (0xB02[0]) to 1 to enable
the EEPROM.
4. Set the REG2EEPROM bit (0xB03[0]) to 1.
5. Set the IO_UPDATE bit (0x232[0]) to 1, which starts the
process of writing data into the EEPROM to create the EEPROM setting file. This enables the AD9522 EEPROM controller to transfer the current register values, as well as the memory address and instruction bytes from the EEPROM buffer segment, into the EEPROM. After the write process is completed, the internal controller sets 0xB03[0] (REG2EEPROM) back to 0.
The readback register, STATUS_EEPROM (0xB00[0]), is used to indicate the data transfer status between the EEPROM and the control registers (0 = done/inactive; 1 = in process/active). At the beginning of the data transfer, STATUS_EEPROM is set to 1 by the EEPROM controller and cleared to 0 at the end of the data transfer. The user can access STATUS_EEPROM through the STATUS pin when the STATUS pin is programmed to monitor STATUS_EEPROM. Alternatively, the user can monitor the STATUS_EEPROM bit.
6. After the data transfer process is done (0xB00[0] = 0), set
the enable EEPROM write register (0xB02[0]) to 0 to disable writing to the EEPROM.
To verify that the data transfer has completed correctly, the user can verify that 0xB01[0] = 0. A value of 1 in this register indicates a data transfer error.

READING FROM THE EEPROM

The following reset-related events can start the process of restoring the settings stored in EEPROM to control registers.
When the EEPROM pin is set high, do any of the following:
Power up the AD9522.
Perform a hardware chip reset by pulling the
RESET
low and then releasing
Set the self-clearing soft reset bit (0x000[5]) to 1.
When the EEPROM pin is set low, set the self-clearing Soft_EEPROM bit (0xB02[1]) to 1. The AD9522 then starts to read the EEPROM and loads the values into the AD9522.
If the EEPROM pin is low during reset or power-up, the EEPROM is not active, and the AD9522 default values are loaded instead.
When using the EEPROM to automatically load the AD9522 register values and lock the PLL, the VCO calibration now bit (0x018[0]) must be set to 1 when the register values are written to the EEPROM. This allows VCO calibration to start automatically after register loading. A valid input reference signal must be present during VCO calibration.
To verify that the data transfer has completed correctly, the user can verify that 0xB01[0] = 0. A value of 1 in this register indicates a data transfer error.

PROGRAMMING THE EEPROM BUFFER SEGMENT

The EEPROM buffer segment is a register space on the AD9522 that allows the user to specify which groups of registers are stored to the EEPROM during EEPROM programming. Normally, this segment does not need to be programmed by the user. Instead, the default power-up values for the EEPROM buffer segment allow the user to store all of the AD9522 register values from Register 0x000 to Register 0x231 to the EEPROM.
For example, if users want to load only the output driver settings from the EEPROM without disturbing the PLL register settings currently stored in the AD9522, they can alter the EEPROM buffer segment to include only the registers that apply to the output drivers and exclude the registers that apply to the PLL configuration.
There are two parts to the EEPROM buffer segment: register section definition groups and operational codes. Each register section definition group contains the starting address and number of bytes to be written to the EEPROM.
If the AD9522 register map were continuous from Address 0x000 to Address 0x232, only one register section definition group would consist of a starting address of 0x000 and a length of 563 bytes. However, this is not the case. The AD9522 register map is noncontiguous, and the EEPROM is only 512 bytes long. Therefore, the register section definition group tells the EEPROM controller how the AD9522 register map is segmented.
There are three operational codes: IO_UPDATE, end-of-data, and pseudo-end-of-data. It is important that the EEPROM buffer segment always have either an end-of-data or a pseudo-end-of-data operational code and that an IO_UPDATE operation code appear at least once before the end-of-data op code.

Register Section Definition Group

The register section definition group is used to define a continuous register section for the EEPROM profile. It consists of three bytes. The first byte defines how many continuous register bytes are in this group. If the user puts 0x000 in the first byte, it means there is only one byte in this group. If the user puts 0x001, it means there are two bytes in this group. The maximum number of registers in one group is 128.
The next two bytes are the low byte and high byte of the memory address (16-bit) of the first register in this group.

IO_UPDATE (Operational Code 0x80)

The EEPROM controller uses Operational Code 0x80 to generate an IO_UPDATE signal to update the active control register bank from the buffer register bank during the download process.
At a minimum, there should be at least one IO_UPDATE operational code after the end of the final register section definition group. This is needed so that at least one IO_UPDATE occurs after all of the AD9522 registers are loaded when the EEPROM is read. If this operational code is absent during a write to the EEPROM, the register values loaded from the EEPROM are not transferred to the active register space, and these values do not take effect after they are loaded from the EEPROM to the AD9522.

End-of-Data (Operational Code 0xFF)

The EEPROM controller uses Operational Code 0xFF to terminate the data transfer process between EEPROM and the control register during the upload and download process. The last item appearing in the EEPROM buffer segment should be either this operational code or the pseudo-end-of-data operational code.

Pseudo-End-of-Data (Operational Code 0xFE)

The AD9522 EEPROM buffer segment has 23 bytes that can contain up to seven register section definition groups. If users want to define more than seven register section definition groups, the pseudo-end-of-data operational code (0xFE) can be used. During the upload process, when the EEPROM controller receives the pseudo-end-of-data operational code, it halts the data transfer process, clears the REG2EEPROM bit, and enables the AD9522 serial port. Users can then program the EEPROM buffer segment again and reinitiate the data transfer process by setting the REG2EEPROM bit (0xB03[0]) to 1 and the IO_UPDATE bit (0x232[0]) to 1. The internal IC master then begins writing to the EEPROM starting from the EEPROM address held from the last writing.
This sequence enables more discrete instructions to be written to the EEPROM than would otherwise be possible due to the limited size of the EEPROM buffer segment. It also permits the user to write to the same register multiple times with a different value each time.

LD pin control
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 follows: program to 0, followed by an IO_UPDATE bit (Register 0x232[0]); then program to 1, followed by another IO_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 (default = 0). Note that the VCO divider (Register 0x1E0[2:0]) must not be static during VCO calibration.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

FREQUENCY PLANNING USING THE AD9522

The AD9522 is a highly flexible PLL. When choosing the PLL settings and version of the AD9522, the following guidelines should be kept in mind.
The AD9522 has four frequency dividers: the reference (or R) divider, the feedback (or N) divider, the VCO divider, and the channel divider. When trying to achieve a particularly difficult frequency divide ratio requiring a large amount of frequency division, some of the frequency division can be done by either the VCO divider or the channel divider, thus allowing a higher phase detector frequency and more flexibility in choosing the loop bandwidth.
Within the AD9522 family, lower VCO frequencies generally result in slightly lower jitter. The difference in integrated jitter (from 12 kHz to 20 MHz offset) for the same output frequency is usually less than 150 fs over the entire VCO frequency range (1.4 GHz to 2.95 GHz) of the AD9522 family. If the desired frequency plan can be achieved with a version of the AD9522 that has a lower VCO frequency, choosing the lower frequency part results in the lowest phase noise and the lowest jitter. However, choosing a higher VCO frequency can result in more flexibility in frequency planning.
Choosing a nominal charge pump current in the middle of the allowable range as a starting point allows the designer to increase or decrease the charge pump current, and thus allows the designer to fine-tune the PLL loop bandwidth in either direction.
ADIsimCLK is a powerful PLL modeling tool that can be downloaded from
www.analog.com and is a very accurate tool
for determining the optimal loop filter for a given application.

USING THE AD9522 OUTPUTS FOR ADC CLOCK APPLICATIONS

Any high speed ADC is extremely sensitive to the quality of the sampling clock of the AD9522. An ADC can be thought of as a sampling mixer, and any noise, distortion, or time jitter on the clock is combined with the desired signal at the analog-to­digital 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
Figure 70 shows the required sampling clock jitter as a function of the analog frequency and effective number of bits (ENOB).

Many high performance ADCs feature differential clock inputs to 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 sampling clock. Differential distribution has inherent common-mode rejection that can provide superior clock performance in a noisy environment. The differential LVDS outputs of the AD9522 enable clock solutions that maximize converter SNR performance.
The input requirements of the ADC (differential or single­ended, logic level termination) should be considered when selecting the best clocking/converter solution. In some cases, the LVPECL outputs of the AD9522 may be desirable for clocking a converter instead of the LVDS outputs of the AD9522.

LVDS CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

The AD9522 provides clock outputs 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. An output current of 7 mA is also available in cases where a larger output swing is required. The LVDS output meets or exceeds all ANSI/TIA/EIA-644 specifications.

CMOS CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

The output drivers of the AD9522 can be configured as CMOS drivers. When selected as a CMOS driver, each output becomes a pair of CMOS outputs, each of which can be individually turned on or off and set as inverting or noninverting. These outputs are 3.3 V CMOS compatible.
When single-ended CMOS clocking is used, some of the following guidelines apply.
Point-to-point connections should be designed such that each driver has only one receiver, if possible. Connecting outputs in this manner allows for simple termination schemes and minimizes ringing due to possible mismatched impedances on the output trace. 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 signal integrity.

Termination at the far end of the PCB trace is a second option. The CMOS outputs of the AD9522 do not supply enough current to provide a full voltage swing with a low impedance resistive, far­end termination, as shown in Figure 73. The far-end termination network should match the PCB trace impedance and provide the desired switching point. The reduced signal swing may still meet receiver input requirements in some applications. This can be useful when driving long trace lengths on less critical nets.

Because of the limitations of single-ended CMOS clocking, consider using differential outputs when driving high speed signals over long traces. The AD9522 offers LVDS outputs that are better suited for driving long traces where the inherent noise immunity of differential signaling provides superior performance for clocking converters.
