Direct Digital Synthesizer
AD9858

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9858 is a direct digital synthesizer (DDS) featuring a 10-bit DAC operating up to 1GSPS. The AD9858 uses advanced DDS technology, coupled with an internal high speed, high performance D/A converter to form a digitally programmable, complete high frequency synthesizer capable of generating a frequency-agile analog output sine wave at up to 400+ MHz. The AD9858 is designed to provide fast frequency hopping and fine tuning resolution (32-bit frequency tuning word). The frequency tuning and control words are loaded into the AD9858 via parallel (8-bit) or serial loading formats. The AD9858 contains an integrated charge pump (CP) and phase frequency detector (PFD) for synthesis applications requiring the combination of a high speed DDS along with phase-locked loop (PLL) functions. An analog mixer is also provided on-chip for applications requiring the combination of a DDS, PLL, and mixer, such as frequency translation loops, tuners, and so on. The AD9858 also features a divide-by-2 on the clock input, allowing the external clock to be as high as 2 GHz.
The AD9858 is specified to operate over the extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.

I 100% Production Tested. III Sample Tested Only. IV
Parameter is guaranteed by design and characterization
testing. V Parameter is a typical value only. VI
Devices are 100% production tested at 25°C and
guaranteed by design and characterization testing for
industrial operating temperature range.
Absolute Maximum Ratings are limiting values, to be applied individually, and beyond which the serviceability of the circuit may be impaired. Functional operability under any of these conditions is not necessarily implied. Exposure of absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods of time may affect device reliability.

ESD CAUTION

ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

When the I/O port is configured as a parallel port, these pins serve as a 6-bit address select for accessing the on-chip registers (see the IORESET, SDO, and SDIO pins below for serial port mode).
Note that this is valid only for serial programming mode. Active high input signal that resets the serial I/O bus controller. It is intended to serve as a means of recovering from an unresponsive serial bus caused by improper programming protocol. Asserting an I/O reset does not affect the contents of previously programmed registers nor does it invoke their default values.
Note that this is valid only for serial programming mode. When operating the I/O port as a 3-wire serial port, this pin serves as a unidirectional serial data output pin. When operated as a 2-wire serial port, this pin is unused.
