GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9054 is an 8-bit monolithic analog-to-digital converter
optimized for high speed, low power, small size and ease of use.
With a 200 MSPS encode rate capability and full-power analog
bandwidth of 350 MHz, the component is ideal for applications
requiring the highest possible dynamic performance.
To minimize system cost and power dissipation, the AD9054
includes an internal +2.5 V reference and track-and-hold circuit.
The user provides only a +5 V power supply and an encode
clock. No external reference or driver components are required
for many applications.

FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM
The AD9054’s encode input interfaces directly to TTL, CMOS
or positive-ECL logic and will operate with single-ended or
differential inputs. The user may select dual-channel or singlechannel digital outputs. The dual (demultiplexed) mode interleaves ADC data through two 8-bit channels at one-half the
clock rate. Operation in demultiplexed mode reduces the speed
and cost of external digital interfaces while allowing the ADC to
be clocked to the full 200 MSPS conversion rate. In the singlechannel (nondemultiplexed) mode, all data is piped at the full
clock rate to the Channel A outputs.
Fabricated with an advanced BiCMOS process, the AD9054 is
provided in a space-saving 44-lead TQFP surface mount plastic
package (ST-44) and specified over the full industrial (–40°C to
+85°C) temperature range.

APPLICATION NOTES
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9054 combines Analog Devices’ patented MagAmp bitper-stage architecture with flash converter technology to create
a high performance, low power ADC. For ease of use the part
includes an onboard reference and input logic that accepts
TTL, CMOS or PECL levels.
The analog input signal is buffered by a high-speed differential
amplifier and applied to a track-and-hold (T/H) circuit. This
T/H captures the value of the input at the sampling instant and
maintains it for the duration of the conversion. The sampling
and conversion process is initiated by a rising edge on the
ENCODE input. Once the signal is captured by the T/H, the
four Most Significant Bits (MSBs) are sequentially encoded by
the MagAmp string. The residue signal is then encoded by a
flash comparator string to generate the four Least Significant
Bits (LSBs). The comparator outputs are decoded and combined into the eight-bit result.
If the user has selected Single Channel Mode (DEMUX =
HIGH), the eight-bit data word is directed to the Channel A
output bank. Data are strobed to the output on the rising edge
of the ENCODE input with four pipeline delays. If the user has
selected Dual Channel Mode (DEMUX = LOW) the data are
alternately directed between the A and B output banks and have
five pipeline delays. At power-up, the N sample data can appear at either the A or B port. To align the data in a known
state the user must strobe DATA SYNC (DS, DS) per the
conditions described in the Timing section.
Graphics Applications
The high bandwidth and low power of the AD9054 make it
very attractive for applications that require the digitization of
presampled waveforms, wherein the input signal rapidly slews
from one level to another and is relatively stable for a period of
time. Examples of these include digitizing the output of computer graphic display systems and very high speed solid state
imagers.
These applications require the converter to process inputs with
frequency components well in excess of the sampling rate (often
with subnanosecond rise times), after which the A/D must settle
and sample the input in well under one pixel time. The architecture of the AD9054 is vastly superior to older flash architectures, which not only exhibit excessive input capacitance (which
is very hard to drive) but can make major errors when fed a very
rapidly slewing signal. The AD9054’s extremely wide bandwidth
Track/Hold circuit processes these signals without difficulty.
Using the AD9054
Good high speed design practices must be followed when using
the AD9054. To obtain maximum benefit, decoupling capacitors should be physically as close to the chip as possible. We
recommend placing a 0.1 µF capacitor at each power-ground
pin pair (9 total) for high frequency decoupling, and including
one 10 µF capacitor for local low frequency decoupling. The
VREF IN pin should also be decoupled by a 0.1 µF capacitor.
The part should be located on a solid ground plane and output
trace lengths should be short (<1 inch) to minimize transmission line effects. This avoids the need for termination resistors
on the output bus and reduces the load capacitance that needs
to be driven, which in turn minimizes on-chip noise due to
heavy current flow in the outputs. We have obtained optimum
performance on our evaluation board by tying all V
pins to a
DD
quiet analog power supply system, and tying all GND pins to a
quiet analog system ground.
Minimum Encode Rate
The minimum sampling rate for the AD9054 is 25 MHz. To
achieve very high sampling rates, the track/hold circuit employs
a very small hold capacitor. When operated below the minimum
guaranteed sampling rate, the T/H droop becomes excessive.
This is first observed as an increase in offset voltage, followed by
degraded linearity at even lower frequencies.
Lower effective sampling rates may be easily supported by operating the converter in dual port output mode and using only one
output channel. A majority of the power dissipated by the AD9054
is static (not related to conversion rate) so the penalty for clocking at twice the desired rate is not high.
Reference
The AD9054 internal reference, VREF, provides a simple, cost
effective reference for many applications. It exhibits reasonable
accuracy and excellent stability over power supply and temperature variations. The VREF OUT pin can simply be strapped to
the VREF IN pin. The internal reference can be used to drive
additional loads (up to several mA), including multiple A/D converters as might be required in a triple video converter application.
When an external reference is desired for accuracy or other
requirements, the AD9054 should be driven directly by the
external reference source connected to pin VREF IN (VREF
OUT can be left floating). The external reference can be set to
2.5 V ± 0.25 V. If VREF IN is raised by 10% (set to 2.75 V) the
analog full-scale range will increase by 10% to 1.024 × 1.1 =
1.1264 V. The new input range will then be AIN±0.5632 V.
Digital Inputs
SNR performance is directly related to the sampling clock stability in A/D converters, particularly for high input frequencies
and wide bandwidths. A low jitter clock (<10 ps @ 100 MHz)
is essential for optimum performance when digitizing signals
that are not presampled.
ENCODE and Data Select (DS) can be driven differentially or
single-ended. For single-ended operation, the complement
inputs (ENCODE, DS) are internally biased to V
/3 (~1.5 V)
DD
by a high impedance on-chip resistor divider (Figure 5), but
they may be externally driven to establish an alternate threshold
if desired. A 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor to ground is sufficient
to maintain a threshold appropriate for TTL or CMOS logic.

AD9054
When driven differentially, ENCODE and DS will accommodate differential signals centered between 1.5 V and 4.5 V with
a total differential swing ≥800 mV (V
≥ 400 mV).

Note the 6-diode clock input protection circuitry in Figure 5.
This limits the differential input voltage to ~ ± 2.1 V. When the
diodes turn on, current is limited by the 300 Ω series resistor.
Exceeding 2.1 V across the differential inputs will have no impact on the performance of the converter, but be aware of the
clock signal distortion that may be produced by the nonlinear
impedance at the converter.

Single Port Mode
When operated in a Single Port mode (DEMUX = HIGH), the
timing of the AD9054 is similar to any high speed A/D Converter (Figure 1).
A sample is taken on every rising edge of ENCODE, and the
resulting data is produced on the output pins following the
FOURTH rising edge of ENCODE after the sample was taken
(four pipeline delays). The output data are valid t
rising edge of ENCODE, and remain valid until at least t
after the
PD
after
V
the next rising edge of ENCODE.
The maximum clock rate is specified as 100 MSPS. This is
recommended because the guaranteed output data valid time
equals the Clock Period (1/f
Delay (t
) plus the Output Valid Time (tV), which comes to
PD
) minus the Output Propagation
S
4.8 ns at 100 MHz. This is about as fast as standard logic is able
to capture the data with reasonable design margins. The AD9054
will operate faster in single-channel mode if you are able to
capture the data.
When operating in Single-Channel Mode, the outputs at Port B
are held static in a random state.
Figure 35 shows the AD9054 used in single-channel output
mode. The analog input (±0.5 V) is ac coupled and the ENCODE
input is driven by a TTL level signal. The chip’s internal reference is used.

Dual Port Mode
In Dual Port Mode (DEMUX = LOW), the conversion results
are alternated between the two output ports (Figure 2). This
limits the data output rate at either port to 1/2 the conversion
rate (ENCODE), and supports conversion at up to 200 MSPS
with TTL/CMOS compatible interfaces. Dual Channel Mode is
required for guaranteed operation above 100 MSPS, but may be
enabled at any specified conversion rate.
The multiplexing is controlled internally via a clock divider,
which introduces a degree of ambiguity in the port assignments.
Figure 2 illustrates that, prior to synchronization, either Port A
or Port B may produce the even or odd samples. This is resolved by exercising the Data Sync (DS) control, a differential
input (identical to the ENCODE input), which facilitates operation at high speed.
At least once after power-up, and prior to using the conversion
data, the part needs to be synchronized by a falling edge (or a
positive-going pulse) on DS (observing setup and hold times
with respect to ENCODE). If the converter’s internal timing is
in conflict with the DS signal when it is exercised, then two data
samples (one on each port) are corrupted as the converter is
resynchronized. The converter then produces data with a
known phase relationship from that point forward.
Note that if the converter is already properly synchronized, the
DS pulse has no effect on the output data. This allows the converter to be continuously resynchronized by a pulse at 1/2 the
ENCODE rate. This signal is often available within a system, as
it represents the master clock rate for the demultiplexed output
data. Of course, a single DS signal may be used to synchronize
multiple A/D converters in a multichannel system.
Applications that call for the AD9054 to be synchronized at
power-up or only periodically during calibration/reset (i.e., valid
data is not required prior to synchronization), need only be
concerned with the timing of the falling edge of DS. The falling
edge of DS must satisfy the setup time defined by Figure 2 and

the specification table. In this case the DS hold time specification on the rising edge can be ignored.
Applications that will continuously update the synchronization
command need to treat the DS signal as a pulse and satisfy
timing requirements on both rising and falling edges. It is easiest
to consider the DS signal in this case to be a pulse train at one
half the encode rate, the positive pulse nominally bracketing the
ENCODE falling edge on alternate cycles as shown in the timing diagram (Figure 2). The falling/rising edge of DS has to
satisfy a minimum setup time (T
) before the rising/falling
SDS
edge of ENCODE; similarly, the rising/falling edge of DS has to
satisfy a minimum hold time (T

falls. This timing requirement produces a tight timing window
at higher encode rates. Synchronization by a single reset edge
results in a simpler timing solution in many applications. For
example, synchronization may be provided at the beginning of
each graphics line or frame.
The data are presented at the output of the AD9054 in a pingpong (alternating) fashion to optimize the performance of the
converter. It may be aligned for presentation as sixteen bits in
parallel by adding a register stage to the output.
In Dual Channel Mode, the converted data is produced five
clock cycles after the rising edge of ENCODE on which the
sample is taken (five pipeline delays).
Figure 36. Dual Port Mode—Aligned Output Data
In Figure 36, the converter is operating in Dual Port Mode,
with data coming alternately out of Port A and Port B. The
figure illustrates how the output data may be aligned with an
output latch to produce a 16-bit output at 1/2 the conversion
clock rate. The Data Sync input must be properly exercised to
time the A Port with the synchronizing latch.

EVALUATION BOARD
The AD9054 evaluation board offers an easy way to test the
AD9054. It provides dc biasing for the analog input, generates
the latch clocks for both full speed and demuxed modes, and includes a reconstruction DAC. The board has several different
modes of operation, and is shipped in the following configuration:
• DC-Coupled Analog Input
• Demuxed Outputs
• Differential Clocks
• Internal Voltage Reference.

Analog Input
The evaluation board accepts a 1 V input signal centered at
ground. The board’s input circuitry then biases this signal to
+2.5 V in one of two ways:
1. DC-coupled through an AD9631 op amp; this is the mode in
which it is shipped. Potentiometer R7 provides adjustment
of the bias voltage.
2. AC-coupled through C1.
These two modes are selected by jumpers S101 and S103. For
dc coupling, the S101 jumper is connected between the two left
pins and the S103 jumper is connected between the two lower
pins. For ac coupling, the S101 jumper is connected between
the two right pins and the S103 jumper is connected between
the two upper pins.
ENCODE
The AD9054 ENCODE input can be driven two ways:
1. Differential TTL, CMOS, or PECL; it is shipped in this
mode.
2. Single-ended TTL or CMOS. To use in this mode, remove
R11, the 50 Ω chip resistor located next to the ENCODE
input, and insert a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor into the C5 slot.
C5 is located between the ENC connector and the ENCODE
input to the DUT and is marked on the back side of the
board. In this mode, ENCODE is biased with internal resistors to 1.5 V, but it can be externally driven to any dc voltage.

Voltage Reference
The AD9054 has an internal 2.5 V voltage reference. An external reference may be employed instead. The evaluation board is
configured for the internal reference. To use an external reference, connect it to the (VREF) pin on the power connector and
move jumper S102.
Single Port Mode
Single Port Mode sets the AD9054 to produce data on every
clock cycle on output port A only. To test in this mode, jumper
S104 should be set to single channel and S106 and S107 must
be set to F (for Full). The maximum speed in single port mode
is 100 MSPS.
Dual Port Mode
Dual Port or half speed output mode sets the ADC to produce
data alternately on Port A and Port B. In this mode, the reset
function should be implemented. To test in this mode, set
jumper S104 to Dual Channel, and set S106 and S107 to D (for
Dual Port). The maximum speed in this mode is 200 MSPS.
RESET
RESET drives the AD9054’s Data Sync (DS) pins. When
operating in Single Port Mode, RESET is not used. In DualChannel Mode it is needed for two reasons: to synchronize the
timing of Port A data and Port B data with a known clock edge,
as described in the data sheet, and to synchronize the evaluation
board’s latch clocks with the data coming out of the AD9054.
Reset can be driven in two ways: by pushing the reset button on
the board, or externally, with a TTL pulse through connector J5
or J6.
DAC Out
The DAC output is a representation of the data on output Port
A only. Output Port B is not reconstructed.
Troubleshooting
If the board does not seem to be working correctly, try the following:
• Check that all jumpers are in the correct position for the
desired mode of operation.
• Push the reset button. This will align the 9054’s data output
with the half speed latch clocks.
• Switch the jumper S105 from A-R to R-B or vice-versa, then
push the reset button. In demuxed mode, this will have the
effect of inverting the half speed latch clocks.
• At high encode rates, the evaluation board’s clock generation
circuitry is sensitive to the +5 V digital power supply. At
high encode rates, the +5 V digital power should be kept
below +5.2 V. This is an evaluation board sensitivity and
not an AD9054 sensitivity.
