AD6623

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The AD6623 is a 4-channel Transmit Signal Processor (TSP) that creates high bandwidth data for Transmit Digital-to-Analog Converters (TxDACs) from baseband data provided by a Digital Signal Processor (DSP). Modern TxDACs have achieved suffi­ciently high sampling rates, analog bandwidth, and dynamic range to create the first Intermediate Frequency (IF) directly. AD6623 synthesizes multicarrier and multistandard digital signals to drive these TxDACs. The RAM-based architecture allows easy reconfiguration for multimode applications. Modulation, shaping and anti-imaging filters, static equalization, and tuning functions are combined in a single, cost-effective device. Digital IF signal processing provides repeatable manufacturing, higher accuracy, and more flexibility than comparable high dynamic range analog designs.
The AD6623 has four identical digital TSPs complete with synchro-
circuitry and cascadable wideband channel summation.
nization AD6623 is pin compatible to AD6622 and can operate in AD6622­compatible control register mode.
The AD6623 utilizes a 3.3 V I/O power supply and a 2.5 V core power supply. All I/O pins are 5 V tolerant. All control registers and coefficient values are programmed through a generic micro­processor interface. Intel and Motorola microprocessor bus modes are supported. All inputs and outputs are LVCMOS compatible.

FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW

Each TSP has five cascaded signal processing elements: a pro­grammable interpolating RAM Coefficient Filter (RCF), a programmable Scale and Power Ramp, a programmable fifth order Cascaded Integrator Comb (CIC5) interpolating filter, a flexible second order Resampling Cascaded Integrator Comb filter (rCIC2), and a Numerically Controlled Oscillator/Tuner (NCO).
The outputs of the four TSPs are summed and scaled on-chip. In multicarrier wideband transmitters, a bidirectional bus allows the Parallel (wideband) IF Input/Output to drive a second In this operational mode two AD6623 channels and the other two AD6623 channels drive a second tiple AD6623s may be combined by driving the INOUT[17:0] the succeeding with the OUT[17:0] of the preceding chip.

Each channel accepts input data from independent serial ports
that may be connected directly to the serial port of Digital Signal
Processor (DSP) chips.
The RCF implements any one of the following functions:
Interpolating Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter, /4-DQPSK
modulator, 8-PSK modulator, or 3 /8-8-PSK modulator, GMSK
modulator, and QPSK modulator. Each AD6623 channel can
be dynamically switched between the GMSK modulation mode
and the 3 /8-8-PSK modulation mode in order to support the
GSM/EDGE standard. The RCF also implements an Allpass
Phase Equalizer (APE) which meets the requirements of IS-95-A/B
standard (CDMA transmission).
The programmable Scale and Power Ramp block allows power
ramping on a time-slot basis as specified for some air-interface
standards (e.g., GSM, EDGE). A fine scaling unit at the pro-
grammable FIR filter output allows an easy signal amplitude
level adjustment on time slot basis.
The CIC5 provides integer rate interpolation from 1 to 32 and
coarse anti-image filtering. The rCIC2 provides fractional rate
interpolation from 1 to 4096 in steps of 1/512. The wide range
of interpolation factors in each CIC filter stage and a highly
flexible resampler incorporated into rCIC2 makes the AD6623
useful for creating both narrowband and wideband carriers in a
high-speed sample stream.
The high resolution 32-bit NCO allows flexibility in frequency
planning and supports both digital and analog air interface stan-
dards. The high speed NCO tunes the interpolated complex signal
from the rCIC2 to an IF channel. The result may be real or com-
plex.
registers allow intelligent management of the relative phase
independent RF channels. This capability supports the require-
ments for phased array antenna architectures and management
of the wideband peak/power ratio to minimize clipping at the DAC.
The wideband Output Ports can deliver real or complex data.
Complex words are interleaved into real (I) and imaginary (Q)
parts at half the master clock rate.

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 the AD6623 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.

AD6623

SERIAL DATA PORT

The AD6623 has four independent Serial Ports (A, B, C, and D), and each accepts data to its own channel (A, B, C, or D) of the device. Each Serial Port has four pins: SCLK (Serial CLocK), SDFO (Serial Data Frame Out), SDFI (Serial Data Frame In), and SDIN (Serial Data INput). SDFI and SDIN are inputs, SDFO is an output, and SCLK is either input or output depending (Serial Clock Slave: 0xn16, Bit 4). Each
on the state of SCS
channel can be
operated either as a Master or Slave channel depending upon SCS. The Serial Port can be self-framing or accept external framing from
the SFDI
pin or from the previous adjacent channel (0xn16, Bits 7 and 6).
Serial Master Mode (SCS = 0)
In master mode, SCLK is created by a programmable internal counter that divides CLK. When the channel is “sleeping,” SCLK
held low. SCLK becomes active on the first rising edge of CLK
is after Channel address 4). Once the CLK frequency
sleep is removed (D0 through D3 of external
active, the SCLK frequency is determined by
and the SCLK divider, according to the
equations below.

The SCLK divider is a 5-bit unsigned value located at Internal Channel Address 0xn0D (Bits 4–0), where “n” is 1, 2, 3, or 4 for the chosen channel A, B, C, or D, respectively. The user must
SDFO is used to provide a sync signal to the host. The input sample rate lation input sample rate, then the SDFO will continually adjust the period to the input sample rate. When the channel is in sleep mode, SDFO is held low. The first SDFO is delayed by the channel reset latency after the Channel Reset is removed. The channel reset latency varies dependent on channel configuration.
External Framing Mode
In this mode Bit 7 of register 0xn16 is set high. The external framing can come from either the SDFI pin (0xn16, Bit 6 = 0) or the previous adjacent channel (0xn16, Bit 6 = 1). In the case of external framing from a previous channel, it uses the internal frame end signal for serial data frame syncing. When in master mode, SDFO and SDFI transition on the positive edge of SCLK, and SDIN is captured on the positive edge of SCLK. When in slave mode, SDFO and SDFI transition on the negative edge of SCLK, and SDIN is captured on the negative edge of SCLK.
Serial Port Cascade Configuration
In this case the SDFO signal from the last channel of the first chip would be programmed to be a serial data frame end (SFE:
(1)
0xn16, Bit 5 = 1). This SDFO signal would then be fed as an input for the second cascaded chips SDFI pin input. The second chip would be programmed to accept external framing from the SDFI pin (0xn16, Bit 7 = 1, Bit 6 = 0).

Serial Data Format
The format of data applied to the serial port is determined by the RCF mode selected in Control Register 0xn0C. Below is a table showing the RCF modes and input data format that it sets.

The maximum SCLK frequency is equal to the CLK when operating in AD6623 mode serial clock master. When operating in AD6622 compatible the maximum SCLK frequency is one-half the CLK. SCLK frequency is 1/32 of the or 1/64 of the

Any of the AD6623 serial ports may be operated in the serial slave mode. In this mode, the selected AD6623 channel requires that an external device such as a DSP to supply the SCLK. This is done to synchronize the serial port to meet an external timing requirement. SDIN is captured on negative edge of SCLK when in slave mode.
Self-Framing Mode
In this mode Bit 7 of register 0xn16 is set low. The serial data frame output, SDFO, generates a self-framing data request and is pulsed high for one SCLK cycle at the input sample rate. In this mode, the SDFI pin is not used, and the SDFO signal would be programmed to be a serial data frame request (0xn16, Bit 5 = 0).

The serial data input, SDIN, accepts 32-bit words as channel input data. The 32-bit word is interpreted as two 16-bit twos comple­ment quadrature words, I followed by Q, MSB first. This results in linear I and Q data being provided to the RCF. The first bit is shifted into the serial port starting on the next rising edge of SCLK after the SDFO pulse.

PROGRAMMABLE RAM COEFFICIENT FILTER (RCF)

Each channel has a fully independent RAM Coefficient Filter (RCF). The RCF accepts data from the Serial Port, processes it, and passes the resultant I and Q data to the CIC filter. A variety of processing options may be selected individually or in combination, PSK and MSK modulation, FIR filtering, all-pass phase equalization, and scaling with arbitrary ramping. See Table III.

Evaluating this equation for our example, SCLKdivider must be less than or equal to 79. Since the SCLKdivider channel register is a 5-bit unsigned number it can only range from 0 to 31. Any value in that range will be valid for this example, but if it is important that the SDFO period is constant, then there is another restriction. For regular frames, the ratio f to an integer of 32 or larger. For this example, constant SDFO periods can only be achieved with an SCLK divider of 31 or less. See Table II for usable SCLK divider values and the corresponding SCLK and f

In conclusion, SDFO rate is determined by the AD6623 CLK rate and the interpolation rate of the channel. The SDFO equal to the channel input rate. The channel interpolation equal to RCF interpolation times CIC5 interpolation, times CIC2 interpolation:

OVERVIEW OF THE RCF BLOCKS

The Serial Port passes data to the RCF with the appropriate format and bit precision for each RCF configuration, see Figure 17. The data Q vectors lated bits may be sent to the PSK Modulator, the Interpolating MSK Modulator, or the Interpolating QPSK Modulator. The PSK Modulator produces unfiltered I and Q vectors at the symbol rate which are then passed through the Interpolating FIR Filter. The Interpolating MSK Modulator and the Interpolating QPSK Modulator produce oversampled, pulse-shaped vectors directly without employing the Interpolating FIR Filter. When possible, the MSK and QPSK modulators throughput and decreased power Interpolating FIR Filter. In addition, the Interpolating MSK Modulator can realize filters with nonlinear inter-symbol inter­ference, achieving excellent accuracy for GMSK applications.
After interpolation, an optional Allpass Phase Equalizer (APE)

The Scale and Ramp block adjusts the final magnitude of the modulated RCF output. A synchronization pulse from the SYNC0–3 pins or serial words can be used to command this block to ramp down, pause, and ramp up to a new scale factor. The shape of the ramp is stored in RAM, allowing complete sample by sample control at the RCF interpolated rate. This is particularly useful for time division multiplexed standards such as GSM/EDGE. Modulator configurations can be updated while the ramp is quiet, allowing for GSM and EDGE timeslots to be multiplexed together without resetting or reconfiguring the channel. Each of the RCF processing blocks is discussed in greater detail in the following sections.

INTERPOLATING FIR FILTER

The Interpolating FIR Filter realizes a real, sum-of-products filter on I and Q inputs using a single interleaved Multiply-Accumulator (MAC) running at the CLK rate. The input signal is interpolated by integer factors to produce arbitrary impulse responses up to 256 output samples long.
Each bus in the data path carries bipolar twos complement values. For the purpose of discussion, we will arbitrarily consider the radix point positioned so that the input data ranges from –1 to just below 1. In Figure 19, the data buses are marked x y to denote finite precision limitations. A bus marked x y has x bits above the radix and y bits below the radix, which implies a range from

The RCF realizes a FIR filter with optional interpolation. The FIR filter can produce impulse responses up to 256 output samples long. The FIR response may be interpolated up to a factor of 256, although the best filter performance is usually achieved when the RCF interpolation factor (L 256 16 coefficient memory (CMEM) can be divided among an arbitrary number of filters, one of which is selected by the Coef­ficient Offset Pointer (channel address 0x0B). The polyphase implementation is an efficient equivalent to an integer up-sampler followed FIR filter running at the interpolated rate.
The AD6623 RCF realizes a sum-of-products filter using a polyphase implementation. This mode is equivalent to an interpolator followed by a FIR filter running at the interpolated rate. diagram below, the interpolating block increases the rate by the RCF interpolation factor (L between every input sample. impulse response length (N where n is an integer from 0 to N

The price of these benefits is that the user must place the coefficients into the coefficient memory (CMEM) indexed by the interpolation phase. The process of selecting the coefficients and placing them into the CMEM is broken into three steps shown below.
The FIR accepts twos complement I and Q samples from the serial port with a fixed-point resolution of 16 bits each. When the serial port provides data with less precision, the LSBs are padded with zeroes.
The Data-Mem stores the most recent 16 I and Q pairs for a total of 32 words. The size of the Data-Mem limits the RCF impulse response to 16 ⫻ L the Serial Port have fewer than 16 bits, the LSBs are padded with zeroes. The Data-Mem can be accessed through the Microport from 0x20 to 0x5F above the processing channels base internal address, while the channels Prog bit is set (external address 4). In order to avoid start-up transients, the Data-Mem should be cleared before operation. The Prog bit must then be reset to enable normal operation.
The Coef-Mem stores up to 256 16-bit filter coefficients. The Coef­Mem can be accessed through the Microport from 0x800 to 0x8FF above the processing channels base internal address, while the channel’s Prog bit is set (external address 4).

There is a single Multiply-Accumulator (MAC) on which both the I and Q operations must be interleaved. Two CLK cycles are required for the MAC to multiply each coefficient by an I and Q pair. The MAC is also used for four additional CLK cycles if the All-pass Phase Equalizer is active.

PSK MODULATOR

The PSK Modulator is an AD6623 extension feature that is only available when the control register bit 0x000:7 is high. The PSK Modulator creates 32-bit complex inputs to the Interpolating FIR Filter from two or three data bits captured by the serial port. The FIR Filter operates exactly as if the 32­bit word came directly from the serial port. There are three PSK modulation options to choose from: /4-DQPSK, 8-PSK, and 3/8-8-PSK. Every symbol of any of these modulations can be represented by one of the 16 phases shown in Figure 21.

All of these phase locations are represented in rectangular coor­dinates by only four unique magnitudes in the positive and negative directions. These four values are read from four channel registers that are programmed according to the following table, which gives the generic formulas and a specific example. The example is notable because it is only 0.046 dB below full-scale and the 16-bit quantization is so benign at that magnitude, that the rms error is better than –122 dBc. It is also worth noting that because none of the phases are aligned with the axes, magnitudes slightly beyond 0.16 dB above full-scale are achievable.
The Sph word is calculated by the QPSK Mapper according to the following truth table.

PHASE EQUALIZER
The IS-95 Standard includes a phase equalizer after matched filtering at the baseband transmit side of a base station. This filter pre-distorts the transmitted signal at the base station in order to compensate for the distortion introduced to the received signal by the analog baseband filtering in a handset. The AD6623 includes this functionality in the form of an Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) all-pass filter in the RCF. This Phase Equalizer pre-distort filter has the following transfer function:

FINE SCALING

AD6623 allows fine scaling of the RCF output signal. A scale factor of 12 to 14 bits is available through the Microport. The Microport fine scale factor is located in Channel Register 0xn0E.

RCF POWER RAMPING

The output of the RCF will be multiplied by a 14-bit ramping profile before entering the CIC filters. It is a RAM program­mable engine that starts indexing through ramping coefficients when the RAMP bit works its way through the chain. It will then count a programmable number of samples and then RAMP down in reverse order. This will allow the ramping values to update at

a modest rate relative to the DAC and still contain the spectral leakage associated with the ramping. A user should provide

CASCADED INTEGRATOR COMB (CIC) INTERPOLATING FILTERS

The I and Q outputs of the RCF stage are interpolated by two cascaded integrator comb (CIC) filters. The CIC section is sepa­rated into three discrete blocks: a fifth order filter (CIC5), a second order resampling filter (rCIC2), and a scaling block (CIC Scaling). The CIC5 and rCIC2 blocks each exhibit a gain that changes with respect to their rate change factors, L
rCIC2
, M
rCIC2
and L
CIC5
. The product of these gains must be compensated for in a shared CIC Scaling block and can be done to within 6 dB The remaining compensation can come from the RCF (in the form of coeffi­cient scaling) or the fine scaling unit.

The CIC5 rejects each of the undesired images while passing the
image at baseband. The images of a pure tone at channel center
(DC) are nulled perfectly, but as the bandwidth increases the
rejection is diminished. The lower band edge of the first image
always has the least rejection. In this example, the CIC5 is inter-
polating by a factor of five and the input signal has a bandwidth
of 0.141 of the RCF output sample rate. The plot below shows
–110 dBc rejection of the lower band edge of the first image. All

NUMERICALLY CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR/TUNER
Each channel has a fully independent tuner. The tuner accepts data from the CIC filter, tunes it to a digital Intermediate Fre­quency (IF), and passes the result to a shared summation block. The tuner consists of a 32-bit quadrature NCO and a Quadrature Amplitude Mixer (QAM). The NCO serves as a local oscillator and the QAM translates the interpolated channel data from baseband to the NCO frequency. The worst case spurious signal from the NCO is better than –100 dBc for all output frequencies. The tuner can produce real or complex outputs as requested by the shared summation block.

Phase Dither
The AD6623 provides a phase dither option for improving the spurious performance of the NCO. Phase dither is enabled by writing a “1” to Bit 3 of Channel Register 0xn01. When phase dither is enabled, spurs due to phase truncation in the NCO are randomized. The choice of whether phase dither is used in a system will ultimately be decided by the system goals and the choice of IF frequency. The 18 most significant bits of the phase accumulator are used by the angle to Cartesian conversion. If the NCO frequency has all zeroes below the 18 If the fraction below the 18

If the phase truncation spurs are unacceptably high for a given frequency, then the phase dither can reduce these at the penalty of a slight elevation in total error energy. If the phase truncation spurs are small, then phase dither will not be effective in reducing

them further, but a slight elevation in total error energy will occur.
Amplitude Dither
Amplitude dither can also be used to improve spurious performance of the NCO. Amplitude dither is enabled by writing a “1” to Bit 4 of Channel Register at 0xn01. When enabled, amplitude dither can reduce spurs due to truncation at the input to the QAM. If the entire frequency word is close to a fraction that has a small denominator, the spurs due to amplitude truncation will be large and amplitude dither will spread these spurs effectively. Amplitude dither also will increase the total error energy by approximately 3 dB. For this reason amplitude dither should be used judiciously.
Phase Offset
The phase offset (Channel Register 0xn04) adds an offset to the phase accumulator of the NCO. This is a 16-bit register that is interpreted as a 16-bit unsigned integer. Phase offset ranges from 0 to nearly 2 radians with a resolution of /32768 radians.
SUMMATION BLOCK
The Summation Block of the AD6623 serves to combine the outputs of each channel to create a composite multicarrier signal. The four channels are summed together and the result is then added with the 18-bit Wideband Input Bus (IN[17:0]). The final summation is then driven on the 18-bit Wideband Output Bus (OUT[17:0]) on the rising edge of the high speed clock. If the OEN input is high then this output bus is three-stated. If the OEN input is low then this bus will be driven by the summed data. The OEN is active high to allow the Wideband Output Bus to be connected to other busses without using extra logic. Most busses (like 374 type registers) require a low output enable, opposite of the AD6623 OEN, thus eliminating extra circuitry.
The wideband parallel input IN[17:0] is defined as bidirectional, to support dual parallel outputs. Each parallel output produces the sum of two of the four internal TSPs and AD6623

The Wideband Output Bus may be interpreted as a twos comple­ment number or as an offset binary number as defined by bit 1 of the Summation Mode Control Register at address 0x000. When this bit is high, then the Wideband Output is in twos complement mode and when it is low it is configured for offset binary output data.
method of obtaining complex data is to provide a QIN signal that toggles on every rising edge of the CLK. This could be obtained by connecting the QOUT of another AD6623 to QIN as shown in Figure 33. In a cascaded system the QIN of the first AD6623 in the chain would typically be tied high and the QOUT of the first AD6623 would be connected to the QIN of the following part. All AD6623s will synchronize themselves to the QIN input so that the proper samples are always paired and the Wideband Output bus represents valid complex data samples. Table XV shows different parallel input and output data bus formats as a function of QIN and QOUT.
The MSB (bit 17) of the Wideband Output Bus is typically used as a guard bit for the purpose of clipping the wideband output bus when bit 0 of the Summation Mode Control Register at address 0x000 is high. If clip detection is enabled then bit 17 of the output bus is not used as a data bit. Instead, bit 16 will become the MSB and is connected to the MSB of the DAC. Configuring the DAC in this manner gives the summation block a gain of 0 dB. When clip detection is not enabled and bit 17 is used as a data

bit then the summation block will have a gain of –6.02 dB.
There are two data output modes. The first is offset binary. This mode is used only when driving offset binary DACs. Two’s
LOGIC1
complement mode may be used in one of two circumstances. The first is when driving a DAC that accepts twos complement data.
LOGIC0
The second is when driving another AD6623 in cascade mode.
When clipping is enabled, the twos complement mode output bus will clip to 0x2FFFF for output signals more positive than the output can express and it will clip to 0x3000 for signals more nega­tive than the output can express. In offset binary mode the output bus will clip to 0x3FFFF for output signals more positive than the output can express and it will clip to 0x2000 for signals more negative than the output can express.
The Wideband Input is always interpreted as an 18-bit two’s complement number and is typically connected to the Wideband Output Bus of another AD6623 in order to send more than four carriers to a single DAC. The Output Bus of the preceeding AD6623 should be configured in twos complement mode and clip detection disabled. The 18-bit resolution insures that the noise and spur performance of the wideband data stream does not become the limiting factor as large numbers of carriers are summed.
There is a two-clock cycle latency from the Wideband Input Bus to the Wideband Output Bus. This latency may be calibrated out of the system by use of the Start Hold-Off counter. The preceding AD6623 in a cascaded chain can be started two CLK
cycles before the following AD6623 is started and the data from each AD6623 will arrive at the DAC on the same clock cycle. In systems where the individual signals are not correlated, this is usually not necessary.
The AD6623 is capable of outputting both real and complex data. When in Real mode the QIN input is tied low signaling that all inputs on the Wideband Input Bus are real and that all outputs on the Wideband Output Bus are real. The Wideband Input Bus will be pulled low and no data will be added to the composite signal if this port is unused (not connected).

SYNCHRONIZATION

Three types of synchronization can be achieved with the AD6623. These are Start, Hop, and Beam. Each is described in detail below. The synchronization is accomplished with the use of a shadow register and a Hold-Off counter. See Figure 34 for a simplistic schematic of the NCO shadow register and NCO Frequency Hold-Off counter to understand basic operation. Enabling the clock (AD6623 CLK) for the Hold-Off counter can occur with either a Soft_Sync (via the micro port), or a Pin Sync (via the AD6623 Sync pin, Pin 62). The functions that include shadow registers to allow synchronization include:
1. Start
2. Hop (NCO Frequency)
3. Beam (NCO Phase Offset)
Start
Refers to the start-up of an individual channel, chip, or multiple chips. If a channel is not used, it should be put in the Sleep Mode to reduce power dissipation. Following a hard reset (low pulse on the AD6623 RESET pin), all channels are placed in the Sleep Mode.
Start With No Sync
If no synchronization is needed to start multiple channels or mul­tiple AD6623s, the following method should be used to initialize the device.
1. To program a channel, it must first be set to the Program Mode
If complex data is desired there are two ways this can be obtained. The first method is to simply set the QIN input of the high and to set the Wideband Input Bus low. This allows

Start with Soft Sync
The AD6623 includes the ability to synchronize channels or chips under microprocessor control. One action to synchronize is the start of channels or chips. The Start Update Hold-Off Counter (0xn00) in conjunction with the Start bit and Sync bit (Ext Address 5) allow this synchronization. Basically the Start Update Hold-Off Counter delays the Start of a channel(s) by its value (number of AD6623 CLKs). The following method is used to syn­chronize the start of multiple channels via microprocessor control.
1. Set the appropriate channels to sleep mode (a hard reset to the AD6623 Reset pin brings all four channels up in sleep mode).
2. Write the Start Update Hold-Off Counter(s) (0xn00) to the appropriate value (greater than 1 and less than 2

3. Write the Start bit and the SyncX(s) bit high (Ext Address 5).
4. This starts the Start Update Hold-Off Counter counting down. The counter is clocked with the AD6623 CLK signal. When it reaches a count of one the sleep bit of the appropriate channel(s) is set low to activate the channel(s).
Start with Pin Sync
A Sync pin is provided on the AD6623 to provide the most accurate synchronization, especially between multiple AD6623s. Synchronization of start with an external signal is accomplished with the following method.

2. Write the Start Update Hold-Off Counter(s) (0xn00) to the appropriate value (greater than 1 and less than 2

3. Set the Start on Pin Sync bit and the appropriate Sync Pin Enable high (0xn01).
4. When the Sync pin is sampled high by the AD6623 CLK this enables the count down of the Start Update Hold-Off Counter. The counter is clocked with the AD6623 CLK signal. When it reaches a count of one the sleep bit of the appropriate channel(s) is set low to activate the channel(s).
Hop
A jump from one NCO frequency to a new NCO frequency.
This change in frequency can be synchronized via microprocessor control or an external Sync signal as described below.
To set the NCO frequency without synchronization the following method should be used.

Hop with Pin Sync
A Sync pin is provided on the AD6623 to provide the most accurate synchronization, especially between multiple AD6623s. Synchronization of hopping to a new NCO frequency with an external signal is accomplished with the following method.
1. Write the NCO Frequency Hold-Off counter(s) (0xn03) to
the appropriate value (greater than 1 and less than 216–1).
2. Write the NCO Frequency register(s) to the new desired
frequency.
3. Set the Hop on Pin Sync bit and the appropriate Sync Pin

Basically the NCO Phase Offset Update Hold­Off Counter delays the new phase from being loaded into the NCO/RCF by its value (number of AD6623 CLKs). The following method is used to synchronize a beam in phase of multiple channels via microprocessor control.

2. Write the NCO Phase Offset register(s) to the new desired

the appropriate value (greater than 1 and less than 216–1).
2. Write the NCO Phase Offset register(s) to the new desired
phase and amplitude.
3. Set the Beam on Pin Sync bit and the appropriate Sync Pin
Enable high (0xn01).

SCALING

Proper scaling of the wideband output is critical to maximize the spurious and noise performance of the AD6623. A relatively small overflow anywhere in the data path can cause the spurious free dynamic range to drop precipitously. Scaling down the output levels also reduces dynamic range relative to an approximately constant noise floor. A well-balanced scaling plan at each point in the signal path will be rewarded with optimum performance. The scaling plan can be separated into two parts: multicarrier scaling and single-carrier scaling.
Multicarrier Scaling
An arbitrary number of AD6623s can be cascaded to create a composite digital IF with many carriers. As the number of carriers increases, the peak to RMS ratio of the composite digital IF will increase as well. It is possible and beneficial to limit the peak to RMS ratio through careful frequency planning and controlled phase offsets. Nevertheless, in most cases with a carriers, the worst-case peak is an unlikely event.
The AD6623 immediately preceding the DAC can be programmed to clip rather than wrap around (see the Summation Block de­scription). For a large number of carriers, a rare but finite chance of clipping at the AD6623 wideband output will result in superior dynamic range compared to lowering each carrier level until clipping is impossible. This will also be the case for most DACs. Through analysis or experimentation, an optimal output level of individual carriers can be determined for any particular DAC.

Single-Carrier Scaling
Once the optimal power level is determined for each carrier, one must determine the best way to achieve that level. The maximum
gain of the RCF coefficients is 11.26 dB, the RCF coarse scale should be set to 2 (12.04 dB). This yields an RCF output level
and fine scale input level of –0.78 dB SNR can be achieved by maximizing the intermediate power level at each processing stage. This can be done by assuming the proper level at the output and working along the following path: Sum­mation, NCO, CIC, Ramp, RCF, and finally, Fine Scaler Unit.
The Summation Block is intended to combine multiple carriers with each carrier at least 6 dB below full scale. For this configu-
The fine scale unit is left to turn a –0.78 dB level into a –5.59 dB
level. This requires a gain of –4.81 dB, which corresponds to a
14-bit [0–2] scale value of 1264h. All subsequent rescalings
during chip operation should be relative to this maximum.
ration, the AD6623 driving the DAC should have clip detection enabled. OUT17 becomes a clip indicator that reports clipping in both polarities. If the DAC requires offset binary outputs, then the internal offset binary conversion should be enabled as well. Any preceding cascaded AD6623s should disable clip detection and offset binary conversion. The IN17–IN0 of the first AD6623 in the cascade should be grounded. See the Summation Block section for details. In this configuration, intermediate OUT17s will serve as guard bits that allow intermediate sums to exceed full scale. As long as the final output does not exceed 6 dB over full scale, the clip detector will perform correctly.
If a single carrier needs to exceed –6 dB full scale, hardwired scaling can be accomplished according to Table XX. This is most useful when the AD6623 is processing a Single Wideband
Carrier
such as UMTS or CDMA 2000.
Table XX. Hardwired Scaling
Finally, as described in the RCF section, there may be a worst-case
peak of a phase that is larger than the channel center gain. In the
preceding example, if the worst case to channel center ratio is larger
than 4.59 dB (potentially overflowing the RCF), then the RCF_
Coarse_Scale should be reduced by one and the CIC_Scale should
be increased by one. In the preceding example, if the worst
channel center ratio is larger than 5.59 dB (potentially over
the RCF and CIC), then the RCF_Coarse_Scale should be reduced
by one and the NCO_Output_Scale should be increased

MICROPORT INTERFACE

The MicroPort interface is the communications port between the
AD6623 and the host controller. There are two modes of bus

operation: Intel nonmultiplexed mode (INM), and Motorola non-
multiplexed mode (MNM) that is set by hard-wiring the MODE
pin to either ground or supply. The mode is selected based on the
use of the MicroPort control lines (DS or RD, DTACK or RDY,
RW or WR) and the capabilities of the host processor. See the
timing diagrams for details on the operation of both modes.
The External Memory Map provides data and address registers The NCO/Tuner is equipped with an output scaler that ranges
from –6.02 dB to –24.08 dB below full scale, in 6.02 dB steps. See the NCO/Tuner section for details. The best SNR will be achieved by maximizing the input level to the NCO and using the largest possible NCO attenuation. For example, to achieve an output level –20 dB below full scale, one should set the CIC output level to –1.94 dB below full scale and attenuate by –18.06 dB in the NCO.
The CIC is equipped with an output scaler that ranges from 0 dB to –186.64 dB below full scale in 6.02 dB steps. This large attenuation is necessary to compensate for the potentially large gains associ­ated with CIC interpolation. See the CIC section for details. For example to achieve an output level of –1.94 dB below full scale, with a CIC5 interpolation of 27 (114.51 dB gain) and a CIC2 inter­polation of 3 (9.54 dB gain), one should set the CIC_Scale to 20 and the Fine Scale Unit output level to –5.59 dB below full scale.

The ramp unit when bypassed will have exactly 0 dB of gain and can be ignored. When in use, the gain is dependant on what value is stored in the last valid RMEM location. RMEM words are 14 bits [0–1), so when the value is positive full scale, the gain is about –0.0005 dB; probably neglectable.
The RCF coefficients should be normalized to positive full scale. This will yield the greatest dynamic range. The RCF is equipped with an output scaler that ranges from 0 dB to –18.06 dB below full scale in 6.02 dB steps. This attenuation can be used to partially compensate for filter gain in the RCF.

Memory Map. The control registers access global chip functions
and multiple control functions for each independent channel.
MicroPort Control
All accesses to the internal registers and memory of the AD6623
are accomplished indirectly through the use of the microprocessor
port external registers shown in Table XXI. Accesses to the Exter-
nal Registers are accomplished through the 3 bit address bus (A[2:0])
and the 8-bit data bus (D[7:0]) of the AD6623 (MicroPort).
External Address [3:0] provides access to data read from or writ-
ten to the internal memory (up to 32 bits). External Address [0]
is the least significant byte and External Address [3] is the most
significant byte. External Address [4] controls the Sleep Mode
of each channel. External Address [5] controls the sync status of
each channel. External Address [7:6] determines the Internal
Address selected and whether this address is incremented after
subsequent reads and/or writes to the internal registers.

EXTERNAL MEMORY MAP

The External Memory Map is used to gain access to the Internal
Memory Map described below. External Address [7:6] sets the
Internal Address to which subsequent reads or writes will be per-
formed. The top two bits of External Address [7] allow the user
to set the address to auto increment after reads, writes, or both.
All internal data words have widths that are less than or equal to
32 bits. Accesses to External Address [0] also triggers access to
the AD6623s internal memory map. Thus during writes to the

internal registers, External Address [0] must be written last to insure all data is transferred. Reads are the opposite in that External Address [0] must be the first data register read (after setting the appropriate internal address) to initiate an internal access.
External Address [5:4] reads and writes are transferred immediately to internal control registers. External Address [4] is the sleep register. The sleep bits can be set collectively by the address. The sleep bits can
be cleared by operation of start syncs (described below).
External Address [5] is the sync register. These bits are write only. There are three types of syncs: start, hop, and beam. Each of these can be sent to any or all of the four channels. For example, a write of
X0010100 would issue a start sync to channel C only. A write of X1101111 would issue a beam sync and a hop sync to all channels.
The internal address bus is 12 bits wide and the internal data bus is 32 bits wide. External address 7 is the UAR (Upper Address Register) and stores the upper four bits of the address space in UAR[3:0]. UAR[7:6] define the auto-increment feature. If Bit 6 is high, the internal address is incremented after an internal read. If Bit 7 is high, the internal address is incremented after an internal write. If both bits are high, the internal address in incremented after either a write or a read. This feature is designed for sequential access to internal locations. External address 6 is the LAR (Lower Address Register) and stores the address. External addresses 3 through internal data. All internal accesses are two clock cycles long.
Writing to an internal location with a data width of 16 bits is achieved by first writing the upper four bits of the address to bits 3 through 0 of the UAR (bits 7 and 6 of the UAR are written to determine whether or not the auto increment feature is enabled). The LAR is then written with the lower eight bits of the internal address (it doesnt matter if the LAR is written before the UAR as long as both are written before the internal access). Since the data width of the internal address is 16 bits, only data register 1 and data register 0 are needed. Data register 1 must be written first because the write to data register 0 triggers the internal access. Data register 0 must always be the last register written to initiate the internal write.
Reading from the MicroPort is accomplished in a similar manner. The internal address is first written. A read from data register 0 activates the internal read, thus register 0 must always be read first to initiate an internal read. This provides the 8 LSBs of the internal read through the MicroPort (D[7:0]). Additional bytes are then read by changing the external address (A[2:0]) and performing additional reads. If data register 3 (or any other) is read before data register 0, incorrect data will be read. Data register 0 must be read first in order to transfer data from the core memory to the external memory locations. Once the data register is read, the remaining locations may be examined in any order.
lower 8 bits of the internal

Access to the external registers of Table XX is accomplished in one of two modes using the CS, DS(RD), RW(WR), and DTACK(RDY) inputs. The access modes are Intel Nonmulti­plexed mode and Motorola Nonmultiplexed mode. These modes are controlled by the MODE input (MODE = 0 for INM, MODE
Intel Nonmultiplexed Mode (INM)
MODE must be tied low to operate the AD6623 MicroPort in INM mode. The access type is controlled by the user with the chip select (CS), read (RD), and write (WR) inputs. The ready (RDY) signal is produced by the MicroPort to communicate to the user the MicroPort is ready for an access. RDY goes low at the start of the access and is released when the internal cycle is complete. See the timing diagrams for both the read and write modes in the Specifications.
Motorola Nonmultiplexed Mode (MNM)
MODE must be tied high to operate the AD6623 MNM mode. The access type is controlled by the user with the chip select (CS), data strobe (DS), and read/write (RW) inputs. The data acknowledge (DTACK) signal is produced by the MicroPort to acknowledge the completion of an access to the user. DTACK goes low when an internal access is complete and then will return high after DS is deasserted. See the timing diagrams for both the read and write modes in the Specifications.
The DTACK(RDY) pin is configured as an open drain so that multiple devices may be tied together at the microprocessor/ microcontroller without contention.
The MicroPort of the AD6623 allows for multiple accesses while CS is held low (CS can be tied permanently low if the MicroPort is not shared with additional devices). The user can access multiple locations by pulsing the RW(WR) or DS(RD) lines and changing the contents of the external three bit address bus (A[2:0]).
External Address 7 Upper Address Register (UAR)
Sets the four most significant bits of the internal address, effectively selecting channels 1, 2, 3, or 4 (D2:D0). The autoincrement of read and write are also set (D7:D6).
External Address 6 Lower Address Register (LAR)
Sets the internal address 8 LSBs (D7:D0).
External Address 5 Sync
This register is write only. Bits in this address control the synchro­nization of the AD6623 channels. If the user intends to bring up channels with no synchronization requirements then all bits of this register should be written low. Two types of sync signals are available with the AD6623. The first is Soft Sync. Soft Sync is software synchronization enabled through the MicroPort. The synchronization method is Pin Sync. Pin Sync is enabled

External Address 4 Sleep
Bits in this register determine how the chip is programmed and enables the channels. The program bits (D7:D4) must be set high
to allow programming of CMEM and DMEM for each channel. Sleep bits (D3:D0) are used to activate or sleep channels. These can be used manually by the user to bring up a channel by simply
writing the required channel high. These bits can also be used in conjunc­tion with the Start and Sync signals available in External Address 5 to synchronize the channels. See the Synchronization section for a detailed explanation of different modes.
INTERNAL COUNTER REGISTERS AND ON-CHIP RAM AD6623 and AD6622 Compatibility
The AD6623 functionality is a superset of the AD6622 functionality. The AD6623 is pin-compatible with AD6622.
AD6622 compatibility is selected when bit 7 of Internal Control Register 0x000 is low. In this state, all AD6623 extended control registers are cleared. While in the AD6622 mode the unused AD6623 pins are three-stated.
Listed below is the mapping of internal AD6623 registers. AD6622 compatibility is selected by setting 0x000:7 low. In this state, all AD6623 extended control registers are cleared. Registers marked as Reserved must be written low.

APPLICATIONS
The AD6623 provides considerable flexibility for the control of the synchronization, relative phasing, and scaling of the individual channel inputs. Implementation of a multichannel transmitter invariably begins with an analysis of the output spectrum that must be generated.
MULTIPLE TSP OPERATION
Each of the four Transmit Signal Processors (TSPs) of the AD6623
can adequately reject the interpolation images of narrow band-
width carriers such as AMPS, IS-136, GSM, EDGE, and PHS.
Wider bandwidth carriers such as IS-95 and IMT2000 require a
coordinated effort of multiple processing channels.
This section demonstrates how to coordinate multiple TSPs to
create wider bandwidth channels without sacrificing image
rejection. As an example, a UMTS carrier is modulated using
four TSP channels (an entire AD6623). The same principles
can be applied to different designs using more or fewer TSPs.
This section does not explore techniques for using multiple TSPs
to solve problems other than Serial Port or RCF throughput.
Designing filter coefficients and control settings for de-interleaved
TSPs is no harder than designing a filter for a single TSP. For
example, if four TSPs are to be used, simply divide the input
data rate by four and generate the filter as normal. For any
design, a better filter can always be realized by incrementing the
number of TSPs to be used. When it is time to program the
TSPs, only two small differences must be programmed. First,
each channel is configured with exactly the same filter, scalers,
modes and NCO frequency. Since each channel receives data at
one-quarter the data rate and in a staggered fashion, the Start
Hold-Off Counters must also be staggered (see Programming
Multiple TSPs section). Second, the phase offset of each NCO
must be set to match the demultiplexed ratio (in this example).
Thus the phase offset should be set to 90 degrees (16384 which
is one-quarter of a 16-bit register).
Determining the Number of TSPs to Use
There are three limitations of a single TSP that can be over-
come by deinterleaving an input stream into multiple TSPs:
Serial Port bandwidth, the time restriction to the RCF impulse
response length (NRCF), and the DMEM restriction to NRCF.
If the input sample rate is faster than the Serial Port can accept
data, the data can be de-interleaved into multiple Serial Ports.

USING THE AD6623 TO PROCESS UMTS CARRIERS

The AD6623 may be used to process two UMTS carriers, each with an output oversampling rate of 24 (i.e., 92.16 MSPS). The AD6623 configuration used to accomplish this consists of using two processing channels in parallel to process each UMTS

DIGITAL TO ANALOG CONVERTER (DAC) SELECTION

The selection of a high-performance DAC depends on a number of factors. The dynamic range of the DAC must be considered from a noise and spectral purity perspective. The 14-bit AD9772A
A minimum of 32 SCLK cycles are required to accept an input
sample, so the minimum number of TSPs (NTSP) due to limited
Serial Port bandwidth is a function of the input sample rate (f
as shown in the equation below. is the best choice for overall bandwidth, noise, and spectral purity.
In order to minimize the complexity of the analog interpolation filter which must follow the DAC, the sample rate of the master clock is generally set to at least three times the maximum analog frequency of interest.
In the case where a 15 MHz band of interest is to be up-converted to RF, the lowest frequency might be 5 MHz and the upper band edge at 20 MHz (offset from dc to afford the best image reject filter after the first digital IF). The minimum sample rate would be set to 65 MSPS.
Consideration must also be given to data rate of the incoming data stream, interpolation factors, and the clock rate of the DSP.
For example for a UMTS system, we will assume f

De-interleaving the input data into multiple TSPs extends the time restriction and may possibly extend the DMEM restriction, but will not extend the CMEM restriction. Deinterleaving the input stream to multiple TSPs divides the input sample rate to each TSP by the number of TSPs used (N
). To keep the output
TSP
rate fixed, L must be increased by a factor of NCH, which extends the time restriction. This increase in L may be achieved by increas-
any one or more of L
ing limits. Achieving a larger L by increasing L or L
will relieves the DMEM restriction as well.

). The composite RCF and CIC frequency response is shown in Figure 38, on the same frequency scale. This figure demonstrates a good approximation
forward. All the Channel Registers and the CMEM of each TSP are programmed identically, except the Start Hold-Off Counters and NCO Phase Offset.
In order to separate the input timing to each TSP, the Hold-Off Counters must be used to start each TSP successively in response to a common Start SYNC. The Start SYNC may originate from the SYNC pin or the MicroPort. Each subsequent TSP must have a Hold-Off Counter value L/N If the TSPs are located on cascaded Counters of the upstream device should additional one.
In the UMTS example, L = 80 and N quickly as possible to a Start SYNC, the Hold-Off Counter values should be 1, 21, 41, and 61.
Driving Multiple TSP Serial Ports
When configured properly, the AD6623 will drive each SDFO out of phase. Each new piece of data should be driven only into the TSP that pulses its SDFO pin at that time.
In the UMTS example in Figure 35, L = 80 and N each serial port need only accept every fourth input sample. Each serial port is shifting at peak capacity, so sample 1, 2, and 3 begin shifting into Serial Ports B, C, and D before sample 0 is
completed into Serial Port A. to a root-raised-cosine with a roll-off factor of 0.22, a passband ripple of 0.1 dB, and a stopband ripple better than –70 dB until the lobe of the first image which peaks at –60 dB about 7.68 MHz from the carrier center. This lobe could be reduced by shifting more of the interpolation towards the RCF, but that would sacrifice near in performance. As shown, the first image can be easily rejected by an analog filter further up the signal path.

THERMAL MANAGEMENT

The power dissipation of the AD6623 is primarily determined by three factors: the clock rate, the number of channels active, and the distribution of interpolation rates. The faster the clock rate the more power dissipated by the CMOS structures of the AD6623 and the more channels active the higher the overall power of the chip. Low interpolation rates in the CIC stages (CIC5, CIC2) results in higher power dissipation. All these factors should be analyzed as each application has different thermal requirements.
The AD6623 128-Lead MQFP is specially designed to provide excellent thermal performance. To achieve the best performance the power and ground leads should be connected directly to planes on the PC board. This provides the best thermal transfer from the AD6623 to the PC board.
