GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9548 provides synchronization for many systems, including synchronous optical networks (SONET/SDH). The AD9548 generates an output clock synchronized to one of up to four differential or eight single-ended external input references. The digital PLL allows for reduction of input time jitter or phase noise associated with the external references. The AD9548 continuously generates a clean (low jitter), valid output clock even when all references have failed by means of a digitally controlled loop and holdover circuitry.
The AD9548 operates over an industrial temperature range of
−40°C to +85°C.

GETTING STARTED

POWER-ON RESET

The AD9548 monitors the voltage on the power supplies at power-up. When DVDD3 is greater than 2.35 V ± 0.1 V and DVDD (Pin 1, Pin 6, Pin 12, Pin 77, Pin 83, and Pin 88) is greater than 1.4 V ± 0.05 V, the device generates a 75 ns reset pulse. The power-up reset pulse is internal and independent of the RESET pin. This internal power-up reset sequence eliminates the need for the user to provide external power supply sequencing. Within 45 ns after the leading edge of the internal reset pulse, the M0 to M7 multifunction pins behave as high impedance digital inputs and remain so until programmed otherwise.

INITIAL PIN PROGRAMMING

During a device reset (either via the power-up reset pulse or the RESET pin), the multifunction pins (M0 to M7) behave as high impedance inputs, but upon removal of the reset condition, level-sensitive latches capture the logic pattern present on the multifunction pins. The AD9548 requires that the user supply the desired logic state to the M0 to M7 pins by means of pull-up and/or pull-down resistors (nominally 10 k to 30 k).
The initial state of the M0 to M7 pins following a reset is referred to as FncInit, Bits[7:0]. Bits[7:0] of FncInit map directly to the logic states of M7:0, respectively. The three LSBs of FncInit (FncInit, Bits[2:0]) determine whether the serial port interface behaves according to the SPI or I Specifically, FncInit, Bits[2:0] = 000 selects the SPI interface, while any other value selects the I
2
the I
C bus address set to the value of FncInit, Bits[2:0].
The five MSBs of FncInit (FncInit, Bits[7:3]) determine the operation of the EEPROM loader. On the falling edge of RESET, if FncInit, Bits[7:3] = 00000, then the EEPROM contents are not transferred to the control registers and the device registers assume their default values. However, if FncInit, Bits[7:3] ≠ 00000, then the EEPROM controller transfers the contents of the EEPROM to the control registers with condition = FncInit, Bits[7:3] (see the EEPROM section).

DEVICE REGISTER PROGRAMMING

The initial state of the M0 to M7 pins establishes the serial I/O port protocol (SPI or I protocol, and assuming that an EEPROM download is not used, program the device according to the recommended sequence described in the Program the System Clock Functionality section through the Generate the Output Clock section.

Program the System Clock Functionality

The system clock parameters reside in the 0100 register address space. They include the following:
System clock PLL controls
System clock period
System clock stability timer

Rev. B | Page 24 of 112
It is essential to program the system clock period because many of the AD9548 subsystems rely on this value. It is highly recommended to program the system clock stability timer, as well. This is especially important when using the system clock PLL but also applies if using an external system clock source, especially if the external source is not expected to be completely stable when power is applied to the AD9548.

Initialize the System Clock

After the system clock functionality is programmed, issue an I/O update using Register 0005, Bit 0 to invoke the system clock settings.

Calibrate the System Clock (Only if Using SYSCLK PLL)

Set the calibrate system clock bit in the sync/cal register (Address 0A02, Bit 0) and issue an I/O update. Then clear the calibrate system clock bit and issue another I/O update. This action allows time for the calibration to proceed while pro­gramming the remaining device registers.

Program the Multifunction Pins (Optional)

This step is required only if the user intends to use any of the multifunction pins for status or control. The multifunction pin parameters reside in the 0200 to 0207 register address space. The default configuration of the multifunction pins is as an undesignated high impedance input pin.

Program the IRQ Functionality (Optional)

This step is required only if the user intends to use the IRQ feature. IRQ control resides in the 0200 to 0207 register address space. It includes the following:
IRQ pin mode control
IRQ mask
The IRQ mask default values prevent interrupts from being generated. The IRQ pin mode default is open-drain NMOS.

Program the Watchdog Timer (Optional)

This step is required only if the user intends to use it. Watchdog timer control resides in the 0200 register address space. The watchdog timer is disabled by default.

Program the DAC Full-Scale Current (Optional)

This step is required only if the user intends to use a full-scale current setting other than the default value. DAC full-scale current control resides in the 0200 register address space.

Program the Digital Phase-Locked Loop (DPLL)

The DPLL parameters reside in the 0300 register address space. They include the following:
Free-run frequency (DDS frequency tuning word)
DDS phase offset
DPLL pull-in range limits
DPLL closed-loop phase offset
Phase slew control (for hitless reference switching)
Tuning word history control (for holdover operation)
Page 25
AD9548

Program the Clock Distribution Outputs

The clock distribution parameters reside in the 0400 register address space. They include the following:
Output power-down control
Output enable (disabled by default)
Output synchronization
Output mode control
Output divider functionality

Program the Reference Inputs

The reference input parameters reside in the 0500 register address space. They include the following:
Reference power-down
Reference logic family
Reference profile assignment control
Phase build-out control

Program the Reference Profiles

The reference profile parameters reside in the 0600 to 0700 register address space. They include the following:
Reference priority
Reference period
Reference period tolerance
Reference validation timer
Reference redetect timer
Digital loop-filter coefficients
Reference prescaler (R-divider)
Feedback dividers (S, U, and V)
Phase and frequency lock detector controls

Generate the Reference Acquisition

After the registers are programmed, issue an I/O update using Register 0005, Bit 0 to invoke all of the register settings programmed up to this point.
If the settings are programmed for manual profile assignment, the DPLL locks to the first available reference that has the highest priority. If the settings are programmed for automatic profile assignment, then write to the reference profile detect register (Address 0A0D) to select the state machines that require starting. Next, issue an I/O update (Address 0005, Bit 0) to start the selected state machines. Upon completion of the reference detection sequence, the DPLL locks to the first available reference with the highest priority.

Generate the Output Clock

If the registers are programmed for automatic clock distribution synchronization via DPLL phase or frequency lock, the syn­thesized output signal appears at the clock distribution outputs (assuming the output is enabled and that the DDS output signal has been routed to the CLKIN input pins). Otherwise, set and then clear the sync distribution bit (Address 0A02, Bit 1) or use a multifunction pin input (if programmed accordingly) to generate a clock distribution sync pulse, which causes the synthesized output signal to appear at the clock distribution outputs.

OVERVIEW

The AD9548 provides clocking outputs directly related in phase and frequency to the selected (active) reference but with jitter characteristics primarily governed by the system clock. The AD9548 supports up to eight reference inputs and a wide range of reference frequencies. The core of this product is a digital phase-locked loop (DPLL). The DPLL has a programmable digital loop filter that greatly reduces jitter transferred from the active reference to the output. The AD9548 supports both manual and automatic holdover. While in holdover, the AD9548 continues to provide an output as long as the DAC sample clock is present. The holdover output frequency is a time average of the output frequency history just prior to the transition to the holdover condition.
The device offers manual and automatic reference switchover capability if the active reference is degraded or fails completely. A direct digital synthesizer (DDS) and integrated DAC consti­tute a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO). The DCO output is a sinusoidal signal (450 MHz maximum) at a frequency deter­mined by the active reference frequency and the programmed values of the reference prescaler (R) and feedback divider (S). Although not explicitly shown in Figure 33, the S-divider has both an integer and fractional component, which is similar to a fractional-N synthesizer.
SYSCLK N SYSC LKP
The SYSCLKx input provides the sample clock for the DAC, which is either a directly applied high frequency source or a low frequency source coupled with the integrated PLL-based frequency multiplier. The low frequency option also allows for the use of a crystal resonator connected directly across the SYSCLKx inputs.
The DAC output routes directly off-chip, where an external filter removes the sampling artifacts before returning the signal on-chip at the CLKINx inputs. Once on-chip, an integrated comparator converts the filtered sinusoidal signal to a clock signal (square wave) with very fast rise and fall times.
The clock distribution section provides four output drivers. Each driver is programmable either as a single differential LVPECL/LVDS output or as a dual single-ended CMOS output. Furthermore, each of the four outputs has a dedicated 30-bit programmable postdivider. The clock distribution section operates at up to 725 MHz. This enables use of a band-pass reconstruction filter (for example, a SAW filter) to extract a Nyquist image from the DAC output spectrum, thereby allowing output frequencies that exceed the typical 450 MHz limit at the DAC output.

REFERENCE CLOCK INPUTS

Four pairs of pins provide access to the reference clock receivers. Each pair is configurable either as a single differential receiver or as two independent single-ended receivers. To accommodate input signals with slow rising and falling edges, both the differential and single-ended input receivers employ hysteresis. Hysteresis also ensures that a disconnected or floating input does not cause the receiver to oscillate spontaneously.
When configured for differential operation, the input receivers accommodate either ac- or dc-coupled input signals. The receiver is internally dc biased in order to handle ac-coupled operation.
When configured for single-ended operation, the input receivers exhibit a pull-down load of 45 kΩ (typical). Three user-programmable threshold voltage ranges are available for each single-ended receiver.

REFERENCE MONITORS

The reference monitors depend on a known and accurate system clock period. Therefore, the functioning of the reference monitors is not reliable until the system clock is stable. To avoid an incorrect valid indication, the reference monitors indicate fault status until the system clock stability timer expires (see the System Clock Stability Timer section).

Reference Period Monitor

Each reference input has a dedicated monitor that repeatedly measures the reference period. The AD9548 uses the reference period measurements to determine the validity of the reference based on a set of user provided parameters in the profile register area of the register map (see the Profile Registers (Register 0600 to Register 07FF) section). The AD9548 also uses the reference period monitor to assign a particular reference to a profile when the user programs the device for automatic profile assignment.
The monitor works by comparing the measured period of a particular reference input with the parameters stored in the profile register assigned to that same reference input. The parameters include the reference period, an inner tolerance, and an outer tolerance. A 50-bit number defines the reference period in units of femtoseconds. The 50-bit range allows for a reference period entry of up to 1.125 sec. However, an actual reference signal with a period in excess of 1 sec is beyond the recommended operating range of the device. A 20-bit number defines the inner and outer tolerances. The value stored in the register is the reciprocal of the tolerance specification. For example, a tolerance specification of 50 ppm yields a register value of 1/(50 ppm) = 1/0.000050 = 20,000 (0x04E20).
The use of two tolerance values provides hysteresis for the monitor decision logic. The inner tolerance applies to a previously faulted reference and specifies the largest period tolerance that a previously faulted reference can exhibit before it qualifies as nonfaulted. The outer tolerance applies to an already nonfaulted reference. It specifies the largest period tolerance that a nonfaulted reference can exhibit before being faulted.
To produce decision hysteresis, the inner tolerance must be less than the outer tolerance. That is, a faulted reference must meet tighter requirements to become nonfaulted than a nonfaulted reference must meet to become faulted.

Reference Validation Timer

Each reference input has a dedicated validation timer. The validation timer establishes the amount of time that a previously faulted reference must remain fault free before the AD9548 declares it nonfaulted. The timeout period of the validation timer is programmable via a 16-bit register (see the validation register contained within each of the eight profile registers in the register map, Address 0600 to Address 07FF). The 16-bit number stored in the validation register represents units of milliseconds, which yields a maximum timeout period of 65,535 ms.
Note that a validation period of 0 must be programmed to disable the validation timer. With the validation timer disabled, the user must validate a reference manually via the force validation timeout register (Address 0A0E).

Reference Redetect Timer

Each reference input has a dedicated redetect timer. The redetect timer is useful only with the device programmed for automatic profile selection. The redetect timer establishes the amount of time that a reference must remain faulted before the AD9548 attempts to reassign it to a new profile. The timeout period of the redetect timer is programmable via a 16-bit register (see the redetect timeout register contained within each of the eight profile registers in the register map, Address 0600 to Address 07FF). The 16-bit number stored in the redetect timeout register represents units of milliseconds, which yields a maximum timeout period of 65,535 ms.
Note that a timeout period of 0 must be programmed to disable the redetect timer.

Reference Validation Override Control

Register 0A0E to Register 0A10 provide the user with the ability to override the reference validation logic enabling a certain level of troubleshooting capability. Each of the eight input references has a dedicated block of validation logic as shown in Figure 34. The state of the valid signal at the output is what defines a particular reference as valid (1) or not (0), which includes the validation period (if activated) as prescribed by the validation timer. The override controls are the three control bits on the left side of the diagram.

Figure 34. Reference Validation Override
The main feature to note is that any time faulted = 1, the output latch is reset, which forces valid = 0 (indicating an invalid reference) regardless of the state of any other signal. Under the default condition (that is, all three control bits are 0), the reference monitor is the primary source of the validation process. This is because, under the default condition, the ref fault signal from the reference monitor is identically equal to the faulted signal.
The function of the faulted signal is fourfold.
Any time faulted = 1, then valid = 0, regardless of the state
of any other control signal. Therefore, faulted = 1 indicates an invalid reference.
Any time the faulted signal transitions from 0 to 1 (that is,
from nonfaulted to faulted), the validation timer is momentarily reset, which means that, once it is enabled, it must exhaust its full counting sequence before it expires.
When faulted = 0 (that is, the reference is not faulted), the
validation timer is allowed to perform its timing sequence. When faulted = 1 (that is, the reference is faulted), the validation timer is reset and halted.
The faulted signal passes through an inverter, converting it
to a nonfaulted signal, which appears at the input of the valid latch. This allows the valid latch to capture the state of the nonfaulted signal when the validation timer expires.
The ref monitor bypass control bit enables bypassing of the ref fault signal generated by the reference monitor. When ref monitor bypass = 1, the state of the faulted signal is dictated by the ref monitor override control bit. This is useful when the user relies on an external reference monitor rather than the internal monitor resident in the device. The user programs the ref monitor override bit based on the status of the external monitor. On the other hand, when ref monitor bypass = 0, the ref monitor override control bit allows the user to manually test the operation of both the valid latch and the validation timer. In this case, the user relies on the signal generated by the internal reference monitor (ref fault) but uses the ref monitor override bit to emulate a faulted reference. That is, when ref monitor override = 1, then faulted = 1, but when ref monitor override = 0, then faulted = ref fault.
In addition, the user has the ability to emulate a timeout of the validation timer via the appropriate force validation timeout control bit in Register 0A0E. Writing a Logic 1 to any of these

autoclearing bits triggers the valid latch, which is identically equivalent to a timeout of the validation timer.

REFERENCE PROFILES

The AD9548 has eight independent profile registers. A profile register contains 50 bytes that establish a particular set of device parameters. Each of the eight input references can be assigned to any one of the eight profiles (that is, more than one reference can be assigned to the same profile). The profiles allow the user to prescribe the specific device functionality that should take effect when one of the input references (assigned to the profile) becomes the active reference. Each profile register has the same format and stores the following device parameters:
Reference priority
Reference period value (in femtoseconds)
Inner tolerance value (1/tolerance)
Outer tolerance value (1/tolerance)
Validation timer value (milliseconds)
Redetect timer value (milliseconds)
Digital loop filter coefficients
Reference prescaler setting (R-divider)
Feedback divider settings (S, U, and V)
DPLL phase lock detector threshold level
DPLL phase lock detector fill rate
DPLL phase lock detector drain rate
DPLL frequency lock detector threshold level
DPLL frequency lock detector fill rate
DPLL frequency lock detector drain rate

Reference-to-Profile Assignment Control

The user can manually assign a reference to a profile or let the device make the assignment automatically. The manual reference profile selection register (Address 0503 to Address 0506) is where the user programs whether a reference-to-profile assignment is manual or automatic. The manual reference profile selection register is a 4-byte register partitioned into eight half bytes (or nibbles). The eight nibbles form a one-to-one correspondence with the eight reference inputs: one nibble for REF A, the next for REF AA, and so on. For a reference configured as a differential input, however, the device ignores the nibble associated with the two-letter input. For example, if the B reference is differential, then only the REFB nibble matters (the device ignores the REFBB nibble).
Page 29
AD9548
The MSB of each nibble is the manual profile bit, whereas the three LSBs of each nibble identify one of the eight profiles (0 to
7). A Logic 1 for the manual profile bit assigns the associated reference to the profile identified by the three LSBs of the nibble. A Logic 0 for the manual profile bit configures the associated reference for automatic reference-to-profile assignment (the three LSBs are ignored in this case). Note that references configured for automatic reference-to-profile assignment require activation (see the Reference-to-Profile Assignment State Machine section).

Reference-to-Profile Assignment State Machine

The functional flexibility of the AD9548 resides in the way that it assigns a particular input reference to one of the eight reference profiles. The reference-to-profile assignment state machine effectively builds a reference-to-profile table that maps the index of each input reference to a profile (see Table 2 2).
Each entry in the profile column consists of a profile number (0 to 7) or a null value. A null value appears when a reference­to-profile assignment does not exist for a particular reference input (following a reset, for example). The information in Tabl e 22 appears in the register map (Register 0D0C to Register 0D13) so that the user has access to the reference-to-profile assignments on a real-time basis. Register 0D0C contains the information for REF A, Register 0D0D contains the inform­ation for REF AA, and so on to Register 0D13 for REF DD. Bit 7 of each register is the null indicator for that particular reference. If Bit 7 = 0, then the profile assignment for that particular reference is null. If Bit 7 = 1, then that particular reference is assigned to the profile (0 to 7) identified by Bits[6:4]. Note that Bits[6:4] are meaningless unless Bit 7 = 1.

Following a reset, the reference-to-profile assignment state machine is inactive to avoid improperly assigning a reference to a profile before the system clock stabilizes. The reason is that the state machine relies on accurate information from the reference monitors, which, in turn, rely on a stable system clock. Because the reference-to-profile assignment state machine is inactive at power-up, the user must initiate it manually by writing to the reference profile detect register (Address 0A0D). The state machine activates immediately, unless the system clock is not stabilized, in which case, activation occurs upon
expiration of the system clock stability timer. Note that initialization of the state machine is on a per-reference basis. That is, each reference input is associated with an independent initialization control bit.
Once initialized for processing a reference, the state machine continuously monitors that reference until the occurrence of a device reset. This is true even when the user programs a reference for manual profile selection, in which case, the state machine associated with that particular reference operates with its activity masked. The masked background activity allows for seamless operation if the user subsequently reprograms the reference for automatic profile selection.

Reference-to-Profile Assignment

When a reference is programmed for manual profile assignment (see Register 0503 to Register 0506), the reference-to-profile assignment state machine simply puts the programmed manual profile number into the profile column of the reference-to­profile table (see Tab l e 2 2 ) in the row associated with the appro­priate reference. However, when the user programs a reference for automatic profile assignment, the state machine must figure out which profile to assign to the reference.
As long as a null entry appears in the reference-to-profile table for a particular input reference, the validation logic for that reference enters a period estimation mode. Note that a null entry is the default state following a reset, but it also occurs when a reference redetect timer expires. The period estimation mode enables the validation logic to make a blind estimate of the period of the input reference with a tolerance of 0.1%. The validation logic remains in the period estimation mode until it successfully estimates the reference period.
Upon a successful reference period measurement by the validation logic, the state machine compares the measured period to the nominal reference period programmed into each of the eight profiles. The state machine assigns the reference to the profile with the closest match to the measured period. If more than one profile exactly matches the reference period, then the state machine chooses the profile with the lowest numeric index. For example, if the reference period in both Profile 3 and Profile 5 matches the measured period, then Profile 3 is given the assignment.
To safeguard against making a poor reference-to-profile assignment, the state machine ensures that the measured reference period is within 6.25% of the nominal reference period that appears in the closest match profile. Otherwise, the state machine does not make a profile assignment and leaves the null entry in the reference-to-profile table.
As long as there are input references programmed for automatic profile assignment, and for which the profile assignment is null, the state machine continues to cycle through those references searching for a profile match. Furthermore, unless an input reference is assigned to a profile, it is considered invalid and excluded as a candidate for a reference switchover.

REFERENCE SWITCHOVER

An attractive feature of the AD9548 is its versatile reference switchover capability. The flexibility of the reference switchover functionality resides in a sophisticated prioritization algorithm coupled with register-based controls. This scheme provides the user with maximum control over the state machine that handles reference switchover.
The main reference switchover control resides in the loop mode register (Address 0A01). The user selection mode bits (Register 0A01, Bits[4:3]) allow the user to select one of the reference switchover state machine’s four operating modes, as follows:
Automatic mode (Address A01, Bits[4:3] = 00)
Fallback mode (Address 0A01, Bits[4:3] = 01)
Holdover mode (Address 0A01, Bits[4:3] = 10)
Manual mode (Address 0A01, Bits[4:3] = 11)
In automatic mode, a fully automatic priority-based algorithm selects which reference is the active reference. When programmed for automatic mode, the device ignores the user selection reference bits (Register 0A01, Bits[2:0]). However, when pro­grammed for any of the other three modes, the device makes use of the user reference bits. These bits specify a particular input reference (000 = REF A, 001 = REF AA ..., 111 = REF DD).
In fallback mode, the user reference is the active reference whenever it is valid. Otherwise, the device switches to a new reference using the automatic, priority-based algorithm.
In holdover mode, the user reference is the active reference whenever it is valid. Otherwise, the device switches to holdover mode.
In manual mode, the user reference is the active reference whether it is valid or not. Note that, when using this mode, the user must program the reference-to-profile assignment (see register 0503 to Register 0506) as manual for the particular reference declared as the user reference. The reason is that if the user reference fails and its redetect timer expires, then its profile assignment (shown in the active reference (user reference) does not have an assigned profile, which places the AD9548 into an undefined state.
The user also has the option to force the device directly into holdover or free-run operation via the user holdover and user free-run bits (Register 0A01, Bit 6 and Bit 5, respectively]). In free-run mode, the free running frequency tuning word register (Address 0300 to Address 0305) defines the DDS output frequency. In holdover mode, the DDS output frequency depends on the holdover control settings (see the Holdover section).

Automatic Priority-Based Reference Switchover

The AD9548 has a two-tiered, automatic, priority-based algorithm that is in effect for both automatic and fallback
Tabl e 22 ) becomes null. This means that
reference switchover. The algorithm relies on the fact that each reference profile contains both a selection priority and a promoted priority. The selection and promoted priority values range from 0 (highest priority) to 7 (lowest priority). The selection priority determines the order in which references are chosen as the active reference. The promoted priority is a separate priority value given to a reference only after it becomes the active reference.
An automatic reference switchover occurs on failure of the active reference or when a previously failed reference becomes valid and its selection priority is higher than the promoted priority of the currently active reference (assuming that the automatic or fallback reference switchover is in effect). When performing an automatic reference switchover, the AD9548 chooses a reference based on the priority settings within the profiles. That is, the device switches to the reference with the highest selection priority (lowest numeric priority value). It does so by using the reference-to-profile table (see Table 22) to determine the reference associated with the profile exhibiting the highest priority.
If multiple references share the same profile, then the device chooses the reference having the lowest index value. For example, if the A, B, and CC references (Index 0, Index 2, and Index 5, respectively) share the same profile, then a switchover to Reference A occurs because Reference A has the lowest index value. Note, however, that only valid references are included in switchover of the selection process. The switchover control logic ignores any reference with a status indication of invalid.
The promoted priority parameter allows the user to assign a higher priority to a reference after it becomes the active reference. For example, suppose four references have a selection priority of 3 and a promoted priority of 1, and the remaining references have a selection priority or 2 and a promoted priority of 2. Now, assume that one of the Priority 3 references becomes active because all of the Priority 2 references have failed. Some­ti me later, however, a Priority 2 reference becomes valid. T he switchover logic normally attempts to automatically switch over to the Priority 2 reference because it has higher priority than the presently active Priority 3 reference. However, because the Priority 3 reference is active, its promoted priority of 1 is in effect. This is a higher priority than the newly validated reference’s priority of 2, so the switchover does not occur. This mechanism enables the user to give references preferential treatment while they are selected as the active reference. An example of promoted vs. nonpromoted priority switching appears in state diagram form in block diagram of the interrelationship between the reference inputs, monitors, validation logic, profile selection, and priority selection functionality.

Phase Build-Out Reference Switching

Phase build-out reference switching is the term given to a reference switchover that completely masks any phase difference between the previous reference and the new reference. That is, there is virtually no phase change detectable at the output when a phase build-out switchover occurs.
The AD9548 handles phase build-out switching based on whether the new reference is a phase master. A phase master is any reference with a selection priority value that is less than the phase master threshold priority value (that is, higher priority). The phase master threshold priority value resides in the phase build-out switching register (Address 0507), whereas the selection priority resides in the profile registers (Address 0600 to Address 07FF). By default, the phase master threshold priority is 0; therefore, no references can be phase masters until the user changes the phase master threshold priority.
Whenever the AD9548 switches from one reference to another, it compares the selection priority value stored in the profile assigned to the new reference with the phase master threshold priority. The AD9548 performs a phase build-out switchover only if the new reference is not a phase master.

Hitless Reference Switching (Phase Slew Control)

Hitless reference switching is the term given to a reference switchover that limits the rate of change of the phase of the output clock while the PLL is in the process of acquiring phase lock. This prevents the output frequency offset from becoming excessive.

The all-digital nature of the DPLL core (see the Digital PLL (DPLL) Core section) gives the user numerical control of the rate at which phase changes occur at the DPLL output. When enabled, a phase slew controller monitors the phase difference between the feedback and reference inputs to the DPLL. The phase slew controller has the ability to place a user-specified limit on the rate of change of phase, thus providing a mechanism for hitless reference switching.
The user sets a limit on the rate of change of phase by storing the appropriate value in the 16-bit phase slew rate limit register (Address 0316 to Address 0317). The 16-bit word (representing ns/sec) puts an upper bound on the rate of change of the phase at the output of the DPLL during a reference switchover. A phase slew rate value of 0 (default) disables the phase slew controller.
The accuracy of the phase slew controller depends on both the phase slew limit value and the system clock frequency. Generally, an increase in the phase slew rate limit value or a decrease in the system clock frequency tends to reduce the error. As such, the accuracy is best for the largest phase slew limit value and the lowest system clock frequency. For example, assuming the use of a 1 GHz system clock, a phase slew limit value of 315 ns/sec (or more) ensures an error of less than 10%, whereas a phase slew rate limit value above ~3100 ns/sec ensures an error of less than 1%. On the other hand, assuming the use of a 500 MHz system clock, the same phase slew rate limit values ensure an error of less than 5% or 0.5%, respectively.

DIGITAL PLL (DPLL) CORE

DPLL Overview

A diagram of the digital PLL core of the AD9548 appears in Figure 37. The phase/frequency detector, feedback path, lock detectors, phase offset, and phase slew rate limiting that comprise this second generation DPLL are all digital implementations.

The start of the DPLL signal chain is the reference signal, fR, which is the frequency of the reference input. A reference prescaler reduces the frequency of this signal by an integer factor, R + 1, where R is the 30-bit value stored in the appropriate profile register and 0 ≤ R ≤ 1,073,741,823. Therefore, the fre­quency at the output of the R-divider (or the input to TDC) is

A time-to-digital converter (TDC) samples the output of the R-divider. The TDC/PFD produces a time series of digital words and delivers them to the digital loop filter. The digital loop filter offers the following advantages:
Determination of the filter response by numeric
coefficients rather than by discrete component values
The absence of analog components (R/L/C), which
eliminates tolerance variations due to aging
The absence of thermal noise associated with analog
components
The absence of control node leakage current associated
with analog components (a source of reference feed­through spurs in the output spectrum of a traditional analog PLL)
The digital loop filter produces a time series of digital words at its output and delivers them to the frequency tuning input of a DDS, with the DDS replacing the function of the VCO in an analog PLL. The digital words from the loop filter tend to steer the DDS frequency toward frequency and phase lock with the input signal (f
). The DDS provides an analog output signal

a range of 7 ≤ S ≤ 1,073,741,823. U and V are the 10-bit numer­ator and denominator values of the optional fractional divide component and are also stored in the profile register. Together they establish the nominal DDS frequency (f

Normally, fractional-N designs exhibit distinctive phase noise and spurious artifacts resulting from the modulation of the integer divider based on the fractional value. Such is not the case for the AD9548 because it uses a purely digital means to determine phase errors. Because the phase errors incurred by
08022-013
modulating the feedback divider are deterministic, it is possible to compensate for them digitally. The result is a fractional-N PLL with no discernable modulation artifacts.

TDC/PFD

The TDC is a highly integrated functional block that incor­porates both analog and digital circuitry. There are two pins associated with the TDC that the user must connect to external components. Figure 38 shows the recommended component values and their connections.
For best performance, place components as close as possible to the device pins. Components with low effective series resistance (ESR) and low parasitic inductance yield the best results.

The phase-frequency detector (PFD) is an all-digital block. It compares the digital output from the TDC (which relates to the active reference edge) with the digital word from the feedback block (which relates to the rollover edge of the DDS accumulator after division by the feedback divider). It uses a digital code pump and digital integrator (rather than a conventional charge pump and capacitor) to generate the error signal that steers the DDS frequency toward phase lock.

Closed-Loop Phase Offset

The all-digital nature of the TDC/PFD provides for numerical control of the phase offset between the reference and feedback edges. This allows the user to adjust the relative timing of the distribution output edges relative to the reference input edges by programming the 40-bit fixed phase lock offset register
Rev. B | Page 32 of 112
Page 33
AD9548
(Address 030F to Address 0313). The 40-bit word is a signed (twos complement) number that represents units of picoseconds.
In addition, the user can adjust the closed-loop phase offset (positive or negative) in incremental fashion. To do so, program the desired step size in the 16-bit incremental phase lock offset step size register (Address 0314 to Address 0315). This is an unsigned number that represents units of picoseconds. The programmed step size is added to the current closed-loop phase offset each time the user writes a Logic 1 to the increment phase offset bit (Register 0A0C, Bit 0). Conversely, the programmed step size is subtracted from the current closed-loop phase offset each time the user writes a Logic 1 to the decrement phase offset bit (Register 0A0C, Bit 1). The serial I/O port control logic clears both of these bits automatically. The user can remove the incre­mentally accumulated phase by writing a Logic 1 to the reset incremental phase offset bit (Register 0A0C, Bit 2), which is also cleared automatically. Alternatively, rather than using the serial I/O port, the multifunction pins can be set up to perform the increment, decrement, and clear functions.
Note that the incremental phase offset is completely indepen­dent of the offset programmed into the fixed phase lock offset register. However, if the phase slew limiter is active (see the Hitless Reference Switching (Phase Slew Control) section), then any instantaneous change in closed-loop phase offset (fixed or incremental) will be subject to possible slew limitation by the action of the phase slew limiter.

Each coefficient has a fractional component representing a value from 0 up to, but not including, unity. Each coefficient

also has an exponential component representing a power of 2 with a negative exponent. That is, the user enters a positive number (x) that the hardware interprets as a negative exponent

values less than unity. The α coefficient, however, has two additional exponential components, but the hardware interprets

these as a positive exponent of 2 (that is, 2
). This allows the α
coefficient to be a value greater than unity. The positive exponent appears as two separate terms in order to provide sufficient dynamic range.

DPLL Phase Lock Detector

The DPLL contains an all-digital phase lock detector. The user controls the threshold sensitivity and hysteresis of the phase detector via the profile registers.
The phase lock detector behaves in a manner analogous to water in a tub (see Figure 41). The total capacity of the tub is 4096 units with −2048 denoting empty, 0 denoting the 50% point, and +2048 denoting full. The tub also has a safeguard to prevent overflow. Furthermore, the tub has a low water mark at
−1024 and a high water mark at +1024. To change the water level, the user adds water with a fill bucket or removes water with a drain bucket. The user specifies the size of the fill and drain buckets via the 8-bit fill rate and drain rate values in the profile registers.
The water level in the tub is what the lock detector uses to determine the lock and unlock conditions. Whenever the water level is below the low water mark (−1024), the detector indicates an unlock condition. Conversely, whenever the water level is above the high water mark (+1024), the detector indicates a lock condition. While the water level is between the marks, the detector simply holds its last condition. This concept appears graphically in Figure 41, with an overlay of an example of the instantaneous water level (vertical) vs. time (horizontal) and the resulting lock/unlock states.
During any given PFD phase error sample, the detector either adds water with the fill bucket or removes water with the drain bucket (one or the other but not both). The decision of whether to add or remove water depends on the threshold level specified by the user. The phase lock threshold value is a 16-bit number stored in the profile registers and is expressed in picoseconds. Thus, the phase lock threshold extends from 0 ns to ±65.535 ns and represents the magnitude of the phase error at the output of the PFD.
The phase lock detector compares each phase error sample at the output of the PFD to the programmed phase threshold value. If the absolute value of the phase error sample is less than or equal to the programmed phase threshold value, then the detector control logic dumps one fill bucket into the tub. Otherwise, it removes one drain bucket from the tub. Notice that it is not the polarity of the phase error sample, but its magnitude relative to the phase threshold value, that determines whether to fill or drain. If more filling is taking place than

R
draining, the water level in the tub eventually rises above the high water mark (+1024), which causes the phase lock detector to indicate lock. If more draining is taking place than filling, then the water level in the tub eventually falls below the low water mark (−1024), which causes the phase lock detector to indicate unlock. The ability to specify the threshold level, fill rate, and drain rate enables the user to tailor the operation of the phase lock detector to the statistics of the timing jitter associated with the input reference signal.

Note that whenever the AD9548 enters the free-run or holdover mode, the DPLL phase lock detector indicates unlocked. In addition, whenever the AD9548 performs a reference switch­over, the state of the lock detector prior to the switch is preserved during the transition period.

DPLL Frequency Lock Detector

The operation of the frequency lock detector is identical to that of the phase lock detector. The only difference is that the fill or drain decision is based on the period deviation between the reference and feedback signals of the DPLL instead of the phase error at the output of the PFD.
The frequency lock detector uses a 24-bit frequency threshold register specified in units of picoseconds. Thus, the frequency threshold value extends from 0 s to ±16.777215 s. It represents the magnitude of the difference in period between the reference and feedback signals at the input to the DPLL. For example, if the reference signal is 1.25 MHz and the feedback signal is 1.38 MHz, then the period difference is approximately 75.36 ns (|1/1,250,000 − 1/1,380,000| ≈ 75.36 ns).

DIRECT DIGITAL SYNTHESIZER

DDS Overview

One of the primary building blocks of the digital PLL is a direct digital synthesizer (DDS). The DDS behaves like a sinusoidal signal generator. The frequency of the sinusoid generated by the DDS is determined by a frequency tuning word (FTW), which is a digital (that is, numeric) value. Unlike an analog sinusoidal generator, a DDS uses digital building blocks and operates as a sampled system. Thus, it requires a sampling clock (f serves as the fundamental timing source of the DDS. The
48
accumulator behaves as a modulo-2
counter with a programmable step size (FTW). A block diagram of the DDS appears in Figure 42.
The input to the DDS is the 48-bit FTW. The FTW serves as a step size value. On each cycle of f
, the accumulator adds the
S
value of the FTW to the running total at its output. For example, given FTW = 5, the accumulator counts by fives, incrementing on each f reaches the upper end of its capacity (2
cycle. Over time, the accumulator

DDS Phase Offset

The relative phase of the sinusoid generated by the DDS is numerically controlled by adding a phase offset word to the output of the DDS accumulator. This is accomplished via the open loop phase offset register (Address 030D to Address 030E), which is a programmable 16-bit value (phase). The resulting phase offset, Φ (in radians), is given by

When the DPLL is in free-run mode, the DDS tuning word is the value stored in the free running frequency tuning word register (Address 0300 to Address 0305). When the DPLL is operating normally (closed loop), the DDS tuning word comes from the output of the digital loop filter, which changes dynamically in order to maintain phase lock with the input reference signal (assuming that the device has not performed an automatic switch to holdover mode). When the DPLL is in holdover mode, the DDS tuning word depends on a historical record of past tuning words during the time that the DPLL operated in closed-loop mode.
However, regardless of the operating mode, the DDS output frequency is ultimately subject to the boundary conditions imposed by the frequency clamp logic, as explained in the Frequency Clamp section.

Frequency Clamp

The user controls the frequency clamp boundaries via the pull­in range limits registers (Address 0307 to Address 030C). These registers allow the user to fix the DDS output frequency between an upper and lower bound with a granularity of 24 bits. Note that these upper and lower bounds apply regardless of the frequency tuning word that appears at the input to the DDS. The register value relates to the absolute upper or lower frequency bound (f
= fS × (N/224)

Where N is the value stored in the upper- or lower-limit register, and f

Even though the frequency clamp limits put a bound on the DDS output frequency, the DPLL is still free to steer the DDS frequency within the clamp limits. The default register values set the clamp range from 0 Hz (dc) to f the frequency clamp functionality until the user alters the register values.

Frequency Tuning Word History

The AD9548 has the ability to track the history of the tuning word samples generated by the DPLL digital loop filter output. It does so by periodically computing the average tuning word value over a user-specified interval. The user programs the interval via the 24-bit history accumulation timer register (Address 0318 to Address 031A). This 24-bit value represents a time interval (T

The control logic performs a calculation of the average tuning word during the T holdover history register (Address 0D14 to Address 0D19). Computation of the average for each T independent of the previous interval (that is, the average is a memoryless average as opposed to a true moving average). In addition, at the end of each T an internal strobe pulse. The strobe pulse sets the history updated bit in the IRQ monitor register (assuming the bit is enabled via the IRQ mask register). Furthermore, the strobe pulse is available as an output signal via the multifunction pins (see the Multifunction Pins (M0 to M7) section).
History accumulation begins whenever the device switches to a new reference. By default, the device clears any previous history when it switches to a new reference. Furthermore, the user can clear the tuning word history under software control via Register 0A03, Bit 2, or under hardware control via the multifunction pins (see the Multifunction Pins (M0 to M7) section). However, the user has the option of programming the device to retain (rather than clear) the old history by setting the persistent history bit (Register 031B, Bit 3).
Whenever the tuning word history is nonexistent (that is, after a power-up, reset, or switchover to a new reference with the persistent history bit cleared), the device waits for the history accumulation timer (T history value in the holdover history register.
In cases where T problem arises in that the first averaged result does not become available until the full T that as much as 4½ hours can elapse before the first averaged result is available. If the device has to switch to holdover mode during this time, a tuning word history is not available.
To alleviate this problem, the user has access to the incremental average bits in the history mode register (Register 031B, Bits[2:0]). If the history has been cleared, then this 3-bit value, K (0 ≤ K ≤ 7), specifies the number of intermediate averages to take during the first, and only the first, T K = 0, no intermediate averages are calculated; therefore, the first average occurs after interval T mode). However, if K = 4, for example, four intermediate averages are taken during the first T

LOOP CONTROL STATE MACHINE

The loop control state machine is responsible for monitoring, initiating, and sequencing changes to the DPLL loop. Generally, it automatically controls the transition between input references and the entry and exit of holdover mode. In controlling loop state changes, the state machine also arbitrates the application of new loop filter coefficients, divider settings, and phase detector offsets based on the profile settings. The user can manually force the device into holdover or free-run mode via the loop mode register (Address 0A01), as well as force the selection of a specific input reference.

Switchover

Switchover occurs when the loop controller switches directly from one input reference to another. Functionally, the AD9548 handles a reference switchover by briefly entering holdover mode and then immediately recovering. During the switchover event, however, the AD9548 preserves the status of the lock detectors to avoid phantom unlock indications.

Holdover

The holdover state of the DPLL is an open-loop operating mode. That is, the device no longer operates as a closed-loop system. Instead, the output frequency remains constant and is dependent on the device programming and availability of tuning word history.
If a tuning word history exists (see the Frequency Tuning Word History section), then the holdover frequency is the average frequency just prior to entering the holdover state. If there is no tuning word history, then the holdover frequency depends on the state of the single sample fallback bit in the history mode register (Register 031B, Bit 4). If the single sample fallback bit is Logic 0, then the holdover frequency is the frequency defined in the free running frequency tuning word register (Address 0300 to Address 0305). If the single sample fallback bit is Logic 1, then the holdover frequency is the last instantaneous frequency output by the DDS just prior to the device entering holdover mode (note that this is not the average frequency prior to holdover).
The initial holdover frequency accuracy depends on the loop bandwidth of the DPLL and the time elapsed to compute a tuning word history. The longer the historical average, the more accurate the initial holdover frequency (assuming a drift-free system clock). Furthermore, the stability of the system clock establishes the stability and long-term accuracy of the holdover output frequency. Another consideration is the 48-bit frequency tuning resolution of the DDS and its relationship to fractional frequency error,

Recovery from Holdover

When in holdover and a valid reference becomes available, the device exits holdover operation. The loop state machine restores the DPLL to closed-loop operation, locks to the selected reference, and sequences the recovery of all the loop parameters based on the profile settings for the active reference.
Note that, if the user holdover bit (Register 0A01, Bit 6) is set, the device does not automatically exit holdover when a valid reference is available. However, automatic recovery can occur after clearing the user holdover bit.

SYSTEM CLOCK INPUTS

Functional Description

The system clock circuit provides a low jitter, stable, high frequency clock for use by the rest of the chip. The user has the option of directly driving the SYSCLKx inputs with a high frequency clock source at the desired system clock rate. Alternatively, the SYSCLKx input can be configured to operate in conjunction with the internal SYSCLK PLL. The SYSCLK PLL can synthesize the system clock by means of a crystal resonator connected across the SYSCLKx input pins or by means of direct application of a low frequency clock source.
The SYSCLKx inputs are internally biased to a dc level of ~1 V. Take care to ensure that any external connections do not disturb the dc bias because this may significantly degrade performance. Generally, the recommendation is that the SYSCLKx inputs be ac-coupled to the signal source (except when using a crystal resonator).

Low Loop Bandwidth Applications Using a TCXO/OCXO

For many applications, the use of a crystal oscillator is a cost­effective and simple choice. The stability is good enough to support loop bandwidths down to 50 Hz, and the holdover performance is good enough for all except the most demanding applications.
In cases where Stratum 2 or Stratum 3 holdover performance is needed, or in cases where the loop bandwidth must be <50 Hz, the user must use either a TCXO or OCXO. The user should choose a TCXO/OCXO with a high output frequency and CMOS output to achieve the best performance.
When interfacing the TCXO/OCXO, a voltage divider on the output should be used to reduce the voltage swing to 1 V p-p, and that signal should be ac-coupled to the SYSCLKP pin. The SYSCLKN pin can be bypassed to ground with a 0.01 µF capacitor.

Choosing the System Clock Oscillator Frequency

The best performance of the AD9548 is achieved when the system clock is not an integer multiple of the DDS output frequency.
As an example, using a 19.44 MHz oscillator for the system clock in a 156.25 MHz Ethernet application yields better performance than a 25 MHz oscillator.
Another good system clock choice for many communications applications is a 49.152 MHz crystal used in IEEE 1394 (FireWire) because nearly all output frequencies are not integer related to this frequency, and the crystal is readily available.

System Clock Details

A block diagram of the system clock appears in Figure 45. The signal at the SYSCLKx input pins becomes the internally buffered DAC sampling clock (f

S
Note that both the LF and XTAL paths require the use of the SYSCLK PLL (see the SYSCLK PLL Multiplier section).
The main purpose of the HF path is to allow the direct use of a high frequency (500 MHz to 1 GHz) external clock source for clocking the AD9548. This path is optimized for high frequency and low noise floor. Note that the HF input also provides a path to SYSCLK PLL (see the SYSCLK PLL Multiplier section), which includes an input divider (M) programmable for divide-by -1, -2, -4, or -8. The purpose of the divider is to limit the frequency at the input to the PLL to less than 150 MHz (the maximum PFD rate).

The LF path permits the user to provide an LVPECL, LVDS, CMOS, or sinusoidal low frequency clock for multiplication by the integrated SYSCLK PLL. The LF path handles input frequencies from 3.5 MHz up to 100 MHz. However, when using a sinusoidal input signal, it is best to use a frequency in excess of 20 MHz. Otherwise, the resulting low slew rate can lead to substandard noise performance. Note that the LF path includes an optional 2× frequency multiplier to double the rate at the input to the SYSCLK PLL and potentially reduce the PLL in-band noise. However, to avoid exceeding the maximum PFD rate of 150 MHz, using the 2× frequency multiplier is valid only for input frequencies below 125 MHz.
The XTAL path enables the connection of a crystal resonator (typically 10 MHz to 50 MHz) across the SYSCLKx input pins. An internal amplifier provides the negative resistance required to induce oscillation. The internal amplifier expects a 3.2 mm ×
2.5 mm AT cut, fundamental mode crystal with a maximum motional resistance of 100 . The following crystals, listed in alphabetical order, may meet these criteria. Note that, whereas these crystals may meet the preceding criteria according to their data sheets, Analog Devices, Inc., does not guarantee their operation with the AD9548 nor does Analog Devices endorse one crystal manufacturer/supplier over another.

SYSCLK PLL MULTIPLIER

The SYSCLK PLL multiplier is an integer-N design and relies on an integrated LC tank and VCO. It provides a means to convert a low frequency clock input to the desired system clock frequency, f accepts input signals between 3.5 MHz and 500 MHz, but frequencies in excess of 150 MHz require the M-divider to ensure compliance with the maximum PFD rate (150 MHz). The PLL contains a feedback divider (N) that is programmable for divide values between 6 and 255. The nominal VCO gain is 70 MHz/V.

Lock Detector

The SYSCLK PLL has a built-in lock detector. Register 0100, Bit 2 determines whether the lock detector is active. When active (default), the user controls the sensitivity of the lock detector via the lock detect divider bits (Register 0100, Bits[1:0]).
(900 MHz to 1 GHz). The SYSCLK PLL multiplier
S
Note that 0 must be written to the system clock stability timer (Register 0106 to Register 0108) whenever the lock detector is disabled (Register 0100, Bit 2 = 1).
The SYSCLK PLL phase detector operates at the PFD rate, which is f
/N. Each PFD sample indicates whether the
VCO
reference and feedback signals are phase aligned (within a certain threshold range).
While the PLL is in the process of acquiring a lock condition, the PFD samples typically consist of an arbitrary sequence of in-phase and out-of-phase indications. As the PLL approaches complete phase lock, the number of consecutive in-phase PFD samples grows larger. Thus, one way of indicating a locked condition is to count the number of consecutive in-phase PFD samples and if it exceeds a certain value, then declare the PLL locked.
This is exactly the role of the lock detect divider bits. When the lock detector is enabled (Register 0100, Bit 2 = 0), the lock detect divider bits determine the number of consecutive in-phase decisions required (128, 256, 512, or 1024) before the lock detector declares a locked condition. The default setting is 128.

Charge Pump

The charge pump operates in either automatic or manual mode based on the charge pump mode bit (Register 0100, Bit 6).
When Register 0100, Bit 6 = 0, the AD9548 automatically selects the appropriate charge pump current based on the N-divider value. Note that the user cannot control the charge pump current bits (Register 0100, Bits[5:3]) in automatic mode. When Register 0100, Bit 6 = 1, the user determines the charge pump current via the charge pump current bits (Register 0100, Bits[5:3]). The charge pump current varies from 125 A to 1 mA in 125 A steps. The default setting is 500 A.

SYSCLK PLL Loop Filter

The AD9548 has an internal second order loop filter that esta­blishes the loop dynamics for input signals between 12.5 MHz and 100 MHz. By default, the device uses the internal loop filter. However, an external loop filter option is available by setting the external loop filter enable bit (Register 0100, Bit 7). This bypasses the internal loop filter and allows the device to use an externally connected second order loop filter, as shown in Figure 46.

System Clock Period

Many of the user-programmable parameters of the AD9548 have absolute time units. To make this possible, the AD9548 requires a priori knowledge of the period of the system clock. To accom­modate this requirement, the user programs the 21-bit nominal system clock period in the nominal SYSCLK period register (Address 0106 to Address 0108). The contents of this register reflect the actual period of the system clock in femtoseconds. The user must properly program this register to ensure proper operation of the device because many of its subsystems rely on this value.

System Clock Stability Timer

The system clock stability timer (Register 0106 to Register 0108) is a 20-bit value programmed in milliseconds. If the programmed timer value is 0, then the timer immediately indicates that it has timed out. If the programmed timer value is a nonzero value and the SYSCLK PLL is enabled, then the timer starts timing when the SYSCLK PLL lock detector indicates lock and times out after the prescribed period. However, when the user disables the SYSCLK PLL, then the timer ignores the SYSCLK PLL lock detector and starts timing as soon as the SYSCLK PLL is disabled. The user can monitor the status of the stability timer via Register 0D01, Bit 4, via the multifunction pins or via the IRQ pin.
Note that the system clock stability timer must be programmed before the SYSCLK PLL is either activated or disabled.

SYSCLK PLL Calibration

When using the SYSCLK PLL, it is necessary to calibrate the LC VCO to ensure that the PLL can remain locked to the system clock input signal. Assuming the presence of either an external SYSCLK input signal or a crystal resonator, the calibration process executes after the user sets and then clears the calibrate
system clock bit in the cal/sync register (Register 0A02, Bit 0). During the calibration process, the device calibrates the VCO amplitude and frequency. The status of the system clock cali­bration process is user accessible via the system clock register (Register 0D01, Bit 1). It is also available via the IRQ monitor register (Register 0D02, Bit 1) provided the status bit is enabled via the IRQ mask register.
When the calibration sequence is complete, the SYSCLK PLL eventually attains a lock condition, at which point the system clock stability timer begins its countdown sequence. Expiration of the timer indicates that the SYSCLK PLL is stable, which is reflected in the system clock register (Register 0D01, Bit 4).
Note that the monitors/detectors associated with the input references (REFA/AA – REFD/DD) are internally disabled until the SYSCLK PLL indicates that it is stable.

CLOCK DISTRIBUTION

The clock distribution block of the AD9548 provides an integrated solution for generating multiple clock outputs based on frequency dividing the DPLL output. The distribution output consists of four channels (OUT0 to OUT3). Each of the four output channels has a dedicated divider and output driver, as appears in Figure 47.

Super-Nyquist Operation

Typically, the maximum usable frequency at the DAC output is about 45% of the system clock frequency. However, because it is a sampled DAC, its output spectrum contains Nyquist images. Of particular interest are the images appearing in the first Nyquist zone (50% to 100% of the system clock frequency). Super­Nyquist operation takes advantage of these higher frequencies, but this implies that the CLKINx input operates in excess of 500 MHz, which is outside of its default operating limits.
The CLKINx receiver actually consists of two separate receivers: the default receiver and an optional high frequency receiver, which handles input signals up to 800 MHz. To select the high frequency receiver, write a Logic 1 to Register 0400, Bit 4.
Super-Nyquist operation requires a band-pass filter at the DAC output instead of the usual low-pass reconstruction filter. Super­Nyquist operation is viable as long as the image frequency does not exceed the 800 MHz input range of the receiver. Furthermore, to provide acceptable jitter performance, which is a consideration for image signals with low amplitude, the signal at the CLKINx input must meet the minimum slew rate requirements.

Clock Dividers

The output clock distribution dividers are referred to as Q0 to Q3, corresponding to the OUT0 to OUT3 output channels, respectively. Each divider is programmable with 30 bits of division depth. The actual divider ratio is one more than the programmed register value; therefore, a register value of 3, for example, results in a divide ratio of 4. Thus, each divider offers a range of divide ratios from 1 to 2
With an even divide ratio, the output signal always exhibits a 50% duty cycle. When the clock divider is bypassed (a divide ratio of 1), the output duty cycle is the same as the input duty cycle. Odd output divide ratios (excluding 1) exhibit automatic duty cycle correction given by
where N (which must be an odd number) is the divide ratio and X is the normalized fraction of the high portion of the input period (that is, 0 < X < 1).
For example, if N = 5 and the input duty cycle is 20% (X = 0.2), then the output duty cycle is 44%. Note that, when the user programs an output as noninverting, then the device adjusts the falling edge timing to accomplish the duty cycle correction. Conversely, the device adjusts the rising edge timing for an inverted output.

Output Power-Down

Each of the output channels offers independent control of power-down functionality via the distribution settings register (Address 0400). Each output channel has a dedicated power­down bit for powering down the output driver. However, if all four outputs are powered down, the entire distribution output enters a deep sleep mode.

Even though each channel has a channel power-down control signal, it may sometimes be desirable to power down an output driver while maintaining the divider’s synchronization with the other channel dividers. This is accomplished by either of the following methods:
In CMOS mode, use the divider output enable control bit
to stall an output. This provides power savings while maintaining dc drive at the output.
In LVDS/LVPECL mode, place the output in tristate mode
(this works in CMOS mode as well).

Output Enable

Each of the output channels offers independent control of enable/ disable functionality via the distribution enable register (Address 0401). The distribution outputs use synchronization logic to control enable/disable activity to avoid the production of runt pulses and ensure that outputs with the same divide ratios become active/inactive in unison.

Output Mode

The user has independent control of the operating mode of each of the four output channels via the distribution channel modes register (Address 0404 to Address 0407). The operating mode control includes
Logic family and pin functionality Output drive strength
Output polarity
The three least significant bits of each of the four distribution channel mode registers comprise the mode bits. The mode value selects the desired logic family and pin functionality of an output channel, as given in Table 23 .
Table 23. Output Channel Logic Family and Pin Functionality
Mode Bits [2:0] Logic Family and Pin Functionality

LVDS LVPECL Unused
Regardless of the selected logic family, each is capable of dc operation. However, the upper frequency is limited by the load conditions, drive strength, and impedance matching inherent in each logic family. Practical limitations set the maximum CMOS frequency to approximately 250 MHz, whereas LVPECL and LVDS are capable of 725 MHz.
Rev. B | Page 40 of 112
Page 41
AD9548
In addition to the three mode bits, each of the four distribution channel mode registers includes the following control bits:
Polarity invert CMOS phase invert
Drive strength
The polarity invert bit enables the user to choose between normal polarity and inverted polarity. Normal polarity is the default state. Inverted polarity reverses the representation of Logic 0 and Logic 1 regardless of the logic family.
The CMOS phase invert bit applies only when the mode bits select the CMOS logic family. In CMOS mode, both output pins of the channel have a dedicated CMOS driver. By default, both drivers deliver identical signals. However, setting the CMOS phase invert bit causes the signal on an OUTxN pin to be the opposite of the signal appearing on the OUTxP pin.
The drive strength bit allows the user to control whether the output uses weak (0) or strong (1) drive capability (applies to CMOS and LVDS but not LVPECL). For the CMOS family, the strong setting implies normal CMOS drive capability, whereas the weak setting implies low capacitive loading and allows for reduced EMI. For the LVDS family, the weak setting provides 3.5 mA drive current for standard LVDS operation, whereas the strong setting provides 7 mA for double terminated or double voltage LVDS operation. Note that 3.5 mA and 7 mA are the nominal drive current values when using the internal current setting resistor.

Output Current Control with an External Resistor

By default, the output drivers have an internal current setting resistor (3.12 k nominal) that establishes the nominal drive current for the LVDS and LVPECL operating modes. Instead of using the internal resistor, the user can set the external distribution resistor bit (Register 0400, Bit 5) and connect an external resistor to the OUT_RSET pin. Note that this feature supports an external resistor value of 3.12 k only, allowing for tighter control of the output current than is possible by using the internal current setting resistor. However, if the user elects to use a nonstandard external resistance, the following equations provide the output drive current as a function of the external resistance (R):

Clock Distribution Synchronization

A block diagram of the distribution synchronization functionality appears in Figure 48. The synchronization sequence begins with the primary synchronization signal, which ultimately results in delivery of a synchronization strobe to the clock distribution logic.
As indicated, the primary synchronization signal originates from four possible sources.
Direct sync source via the sync distribution bit (Register
0A02, Bit 1)
Automatic sync source based on frequency or phase lock
detection as controlled via the automatic synchronization register (Address 0403)
Multifunction pin sync source via one of the multifunction
pins (M0 to M7)
EEPROM sync source via the EEPROM
All four sources of the primary synchronization signal are logic OR’ed, so any one of them can synchronize the clock distribution output at any time. When using the multifunction pins, the synchronization event is the falling edge of the selected signal. When using the sync distribution bit, the user sets and then clears the bit. The synchronization event is the clearing operation; that is, the Logic 1 to Logic 0 transition of the bit.
The primary synchronization signal can synchronize the distri­bution output directly or it can enable a secondary synchronization signal. This functionality depends on the two sync source bits in the distribution synchronization register (Register 0402, Bits[5:4]).
When sync source = 00 (direct), the falling edge of the primary synchronization signal synchronizes the distribution output directly.
When sync source = 01, the rising edge of the primary synch­ronization signal triggers the circuitry that detects a rising edge of the active input reference. The detection of the rising edge is what synchronizes the distribution output.
When sync source = 10, the rising edge of the primary synch­ronization signal triggers the circuitry that detects a rollover of the DDS accumulator (after processing by the DPLL feedback divider). This corresponds to the zero crossing of the output of the phase-to-amplitude converter in the DDS (less the open­loop phase offset stored in Register 030D to Register 030E). The detection of the DPLL feedback edge is what synchronizes the distribution output.

AD9548

Active Reference Synchronization (Zero Delay)

Active reference synchronization is the term applied to the case when sync source = 01 (Register 0402, Bits[5:4]). Referring to Figure 48, this means that the active reference sync path is active because Bit 4 = 1, enabling the lower AND gate and disabling the upper AND gate. The edge detector in the active reference sync block monitors the rising edges of the active reference (the mux selects the active reference automatically). The edge detector is armed via the primary synchronization signal, which is one of the four inputs to the OR gate (typically the direct sync source). As soon as the edge detector is armed, its output goes high, which stalls the output dividers in the clock distribution block. Furthermore, once armed, a rising edge from the active reference forces the output of the edge detector low. This restarts the output dividers, thereby synchronizing the clock distribution block.
The term zero delay applies because it provides a means to edge align the output signal with the active input reference signal. Typically, zero-delay architectures use the output signal in the feedback loop of a PLL to track input/output edge alignment. Active reference synchronization, however, operates open loop. That is, synchronization of the output via the distribution synchronization logic occurs on a single edge of the active reference.
The fact that an active reference edge triggers the falling edge of the synchronization pulse means that the falling edge is asynchronous to the signal that clocks the distribution output dividers (CLKINx). Therefore, the output clock distribution logic reclocks the internal synchronization pulse to synchronize it with the CLKINx signal. This means that the output dividers restart after a deterministic delay associated with the reclocking circuitry. This deterministic delay has two components. The first deterministic delay component is four or five periods of the CLKINx signal. The one period uncertainty is due to the unknown position of the asynchronous reference clock edge relative to the CLKINx signal. The second deterministic delay component is one output period of the distribution divider.

controls of the device to move the edge timing of the distribution output signal relative to the input reference edge. One method is to use the open-loop phase offset registers (Address 030D to Address 030E) for timing adjustment. However, be sure to use sufficiently small phase increments to make the adjustment. Too large a phase step can result in the clock distribution logic missing a CLKINx edge, thus ruining the edge alignment process. The appropriate phase increment depends on the transient response of any external circuitry connected between the DACOUTx and CLKINx pins.
)
The other method is to use the closed-loop phase offset registers (Address 030F to Address 0315) for timing adjustment. However, be sure to use a sufficiently small phase vs. time profile. Changing the phase too quickly can cause the DPLL to lose lock, thus ruining the edge alignment process. Note that the AD9548 phase slew limit register (Address 0316 to Address 0317) can be used to limit the rate of change of phase automatically, thereby mitigating the potential loss-of-lock problem.
To guarantee synchronization of the output dividers, it is important to make any edge timing adjustments after the synchronization event. Furthermore, when making timing adjustments, the distribution outputs can be disabled and then enabled after the adjustment is complete. This prevents the device from generating output clock signals during the timing adjustment process.
Note that the form of zero-delay synchronization described here does not track propagation time variations within the distribution clock input path or the reference input path (on or off chip) over temperature, supply, and so on. It is strictly a one-time synchronization event.

Synchronization Mask

Each output channel has dedicated synchronization mask bits (Register 0402, Bits[3:0]). When the mask bit associated with a particular channel is set, then that channel does not respond to the synchronization signal. This allows the device to operate with the masked channels active and the unmasked channels stalled while they wait for a synchronization pulse.

STATUS AND CONTROL

MULTIFUNCTION PINS (M0 TO M7)

The AD9548 has eight digital CMOS I/O pins (M0 to M7) that are configurable for a variety of uses. The function of these pins is programmable via the register map. Each pin can control or monitor an assortment of internal functions based on the contents of Register 0200 to Register 0207. To monitor an internal function with a multifunction pin, write a Logic 1 to the most significant bit of the register associated with the desired multifunction pin. The value of the seven least significant bits of the register defines the control function, as shown in Tabl e 24 .

If more than one multifunction pin operates on the same control signal, then internal priority logic ensures that only one multifunction pin serves as the signal source. The selected pin is the one with the lowest numeric suffix. For example, if both M3 and M7 operate on the same control signal, then M3 is used as the signal source and the redundant pins are ignored.
At power-up, the multifunction pins can be used to force the device into certain configurations as defined in the initial pin programming section. This functionality, however, is valid only during power-up or following a reset, after which the pins can be reconfigured via the serial programming port or via the EEPROM.

IRQ PIN

The AD9548 has a dedicated interrupt request (IRQ) pin. The IRQ pin output mode register (Register 0208, Bits[1:0]) controls how the IRQ pin asserts an interrupt based on the value of the two bits, as follows:
00—The IRQ pin is high impedance when deasserted and active
low when asserted and requires an external pull-up resistor (this is the default operating mode).
01—The IRQ pin is high impedance when deasserted and active
high when asserted and requires an external pull-down resistor.
10—The IRQ pin is Logic 0 when deasserted and Logic 1 when
asserted.
11—The IRQ pin is Logic 1 when deasserted and Logic 0 when
asserted.
The AD9548 asserts the IRQ pin whenever any of the bits in the IRQ monitor register (Address 0D02 to Address 0D09) are Logic 1. Each bit in this register is associated with an internal function capable of producing an interrupt. Furthermore, each bit of the IRQ monitor register is the result of a logical AND of the associated internal interrupt signal and the corresponding bit in the IRQ mask register (Address 0209 to Address 0210). That is, the bits in the IRQ mask register have a one-to-one correspondence with the bits in the IRQ monitor register. Whenever an internal function produces an interrupt signal and the associated IRQ mask bit is set, then the corresponding bit in the IRQ monitor register is set. The user should be aware that clearing a bit in the IRQ mask register removes only the mask associated with the internal interrupt signal. It does not clear the corresponding bit in the IRQ monitor register.
The IRQ pin is the result of a logical OR of all the IRQ monitor register bits. Thus, the AD9548 asserts the IRQ pin so long as any of the IRQ monitor register bits are Logic 1. Note that it is possible to have multiple bits set in the IRQ monitor register. Therefore, when the AD9548 asserts the IRQ pin, it may indicate an interrupt from several different internal functions. The IRQ monitor register provides the user with a means to interrogate the AD9548 to determine which internal function(s) produced the interrupt.
Rev. B | Page 45 of 112
Page 46
AD9548
Typically, when the AD9548 asserts the IRQ pin, the user interrogates the IRQ monitor register to identify the source of the interrupt request. After servicing an indicated interrupt, the user should clear the associated IRQ monitor register bit via the IRQ clearing register (Address 0A04 to Address 0A0B). The bits in the IRQ clearing register have a one-to-one correspondence with the bits in the IRQ monitor register. Note that the IRQ clearing register is autoclearing. The IRQ pin remains asserted until the user clears all of the bits in the IRQ monitor register that indicate an interrupt.
It is also possible to collectively clear all of the IRQ monitor register bits by setting the reset all IRQs bit in the reset function register (Register 0A03, Bit 1). Note that this is an autoclearing bit. Setting this bit results in deassertion of the IRQ pin. Alternatively, the user can program any of the multifunction pins to clear all IRQs. This allows the user to clear all IRQs by means of a hardware pin rather than by a serial I/O port operation.

WATCHDOG TIMER

The watchdog timer is a general-purpose programmable timer. To set the timeout period, the user writes to the 16-bit watchdog timer register (Address 0211 to Address 0212). A value of 0 in this register disables the timer. A nonzero value sets the timeout period in milliseconds, giving the watchdog timer a range of 1 ms to 65.535 sec. The relative accuracy of the timer is approximately 0.1% with an uncertainty of 0.5 ms.
If enabled, the timer runs continuously and generates a timeout event whenever the timeout period expires. The user has access to the watchdog timer status via the IRQ mechanism and the multifunction pins (M0 to M7). In the case of the multifunction pins, the timeout event of the watchdog timer is a pulse that lasts 32 system clock periods.
There are two ways to reset the watchdog timer (thereby preventing it from causing a timeout event). The first is by writing a Logic 1 to the autoclearing reset watchdog bit in the reset function register (Register 0A03, Bit 0). Alternatively, the user can program any of the multifunction pins to reset the watchdog timer. This allows the user to reset the timer by means of a hardware pin rather than by a serial I/O port operation.

EEPROM

EEPROM Overview

The AD9548 contains an integrated 2048-byte, electrically erasable, programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). The AD9548 can be configured to perform a download at power-up via the multifunction pins (M3 to M7), but uploads and down­loads can also be done on demand via the EEPROM control register (Address 0E00 to Address 0E03).
The EEPROM provides the ability to upload and download configuration settings to and from the register map. Figure 49 shows a functional diagram of the EEPROM.
Register 0E10 to Register 0E3F represent a 48-byte scratch pad that enables the user to store a sequence of instructions for transferring data to the EEPROM from the device settings portion of the register map. Note that the default values for these registers provide a sample sequence for saving/retrieving all of the AD9548 EEPROM-accessible registers. Figure 49 shows the connectivity between the EEPROM and the controller that manages data transfer between the EEPROM and the register map.
The controller oversees the process of transferring EEPROM data to and from the register map. There are two modes of operation handled by the controller: saving data to the EEPROM (upload mode) or retrieving data from the EEPROM (download mode). In either case, the controller relies on a specific instruction set.

EEPROM Instructions

Tabl e 26 lists the EEPROM controller instruction set. The controller recognizes all instruction types whether it is in upload or download mode, except for the pause instruction, which it only recognizes in upload mode.
The I/O update, calibrate, distribution sync, and end instruct­tions are mostly self-explanatory. The others, however, warrant further detail, as described in the following paragraphs.
Data instructions are those that have a value from 00 to 7F. A data instruction tells the controller to transfer data between the EEPROM and the register map. The controller needs the following two parameters to carry out the data transfer:
The number of bytes to transfer The register map target address
The controller decodes the number of bytes to transfer directly from the data instruction itself by adding one to the value of the instruction. For example, the data instruction, 1A, has a decimal value of 26; therefore, the controller knows to transfer 27 bytes (one more than the value of the instruction). Whenever the controller encounters a data instruction, it knows to read the next two bytes in the scratch pad because these contain the register map target address.
Bytes Required
Description
A data instruction tells the controller to transfer data to or from the device settings part of the register map. A data instruction requires two additional bytes that together indicate a starting address in the register map. Encoded in the data instruction is the number of bytes to transfer, which is one more than the instruction value.
When the controller encounters this instruction while downloading from the EEPROM, it issues a soft I/O update (see Register 0005 in Table 41).
When the controller encounters this instruction while downloading from the EEPROM, it initiates a system clock calibration sequence (see Register 0A02 in Table 120).
When the controller encounters this instruction while downloading from the EEPROM, it issues a sync pulse to the output distribution synchronization (see Register 0A02 in Table 120).
B1 to CF are condition instructions and correspond to Condition 1 through Condition 31, respectively. B0 is the null condition instruction. See the EEPROM Conditional Processing section for details.
When the controller encounters this instruction in the scratch pad while uploading to the EEPROM, it resets the scratch pad address pointer and holds the EEPROM address pointer at its last value. This allows storage of more than one instruction sequence in the EEPROM. Note that the controller does not copy this instruction to the EEPROM during upload.
When the controller encounters this instruction in the scratch pad while uploading to the EEPROM, it resets both the scratch pad address pointer and the EEPROM address pointer and then enters an idle state.
When the controller encounters this instruction while downloading from the EEPROM, it resets the EEPROM address pointer and then enters an idle state.
Note that, in the EEPROM scratch pad, the two registers that comprise the address portion of a data instruction have the MSB of the address in the D7 position of the lower register address. The bit weight increases left to right, from the lower register address to the higher register address. Furthermore, the starting address always indicates the lowest numbered register map address in the range of bytes to transfer. That is, the controller always starts at the register map target address and counts upward regardless of whether the serial I/O port is operating in I
2
C, SPI LSB-first, or SPI MSB-first mode.
As part of the data transfer process during an EEPROM upload, the controller calculates a 1-byte checksum and stores it as the final byte of the data transfer. As part of the data transfer process during an EEPROM download, however, the controller again calculates a 1-byte checksum value but compares the newly calculated checksum with the one that was stored during the upload process. If an upload/download checksum pair does not match, the controller sets the EEPROM fault status bit. If the upload/download checksums match for all data instructions encountered during a download sequence, the controller sets the EEPROM complete status bit.
Condition instructions are those that have a value from B0 to CF. Condition instructions B1 to CF represent Condition 1 to Condition 31, respectively. The B0 condition instruction is special because it represents the null condition (see the EEPROM Conditional Processing section).
Rev. B | Page 47 of 112
Page 48
AD9548
A pause instruction, like an end instruction, is stored at the end of a sequence of instructions in the scratch pad. When the controller encounters a pause instruction during an upload sequence, it keeps the EEPROM address pointer at its last value. This way the user can store a new instruction sequence in the scratch pad and upload the new sequence to the EEPROM. The new sequence is stored in the EEPROM address locations immediately following the previously saved sequence. This process is repeatable until an upload sequence contains an end instruction. The pause instruction is also useful when used in conjunction with condition processing. It allows the EEPROM to contain multiple occurrences of the same register(s), with each occurrence linked to a set of conditions (see the EEPROM Conditional Processing section).

EEPROM Upload

To upload data to the EEPROM, the user must first ensure that the write enable bit (Register 0E00, Bit 0) is set. Then, on setting the autoclearing save to EEPROM bit (Register 0E02, Bit 0), the controller initiates the EEPROM data storage process.
Uploading EEPROM data requires that the user first write an instruction sequence into the scratch pad registers. During the upload process, the controller reads the scratch pad data byte by byte, starting at Register 0E10 and incrementing the scratch pad address pointer as it goes until it reaches a pause or End instruction.
As the controller reads the scratch pad data, it transfers the data from the scratch pad to the EEPROM (byte by byte) and increments the EEPROM address pointer accordingly, unless it encounters a data instruction. A data instruction tells the controller to transfer data from the device settings portion of the register map to the EEPROM. The number of bytes to transfer is encoded within the data instruction, and the starting address for the transfer appears in the next two bytes in the scratch pad.
When the controller encounters a data instruction, it stores the instruction in the EEPROM, increments the EEPROM address pointer, decodes the number of bytes to be transferred, and increments the scratch pad address pointer. Then it retrieves the next two bytes from the scratch pad (the target address) and increments the scratch pad address pointer by 2. Next, the controller transfers the specified number of bytes from the register map (beginning at the target address) to the EEPROM.
When it completes the data transfer, the controller stores an extra byte in the EEPROM to serve as a checksum for the transferred block of data. To account for the checksum byte, the controller increments the EEPROM address pointer by one more than the number of bytes transferred. Note that, when the
controller transfers data associated with an active register, it actually transfers the buffered contents of the register (see the Buffered/Active Registers section for details on the difference between buffered and active registers). This allows for the transfer of nonzero autoclearing register contents.
Note that conditional processing (see the EEPROM Conditional Processing section) does not occur during an upload sequence.

EEPROM Download

An EEPROM download results in data transfer from the EEPROM to the device register map. To download data, the user sets the autoclearing load from EEPROM bit (Register 0E03, Bit 1). This commands the controller to initiate the EEPROM download process. During download, the controller reads the EEPROM data byte by byte, incrementing the EEPROM address pointer as it goes, until it reaches an end instruction. As the controller reads the EEPROM data, it executes the stored instructions, which includes transferring stored data to the device settings portion of the register map whenever it encounters a data instruction.
Note that conditional processing (see the EEPROM Conditional Processing section) is only applicable when downloading.

Automatic EEPROM Download

Following a power-up, an assertion of the RESET pin, or a soft reset (Register 0000, Bit 5 = 1), if FncInit[7:3] ≠ 0 (see the Initial Pin Programming section), then the instruction sequence stored in the EEPROM executes automatically with condition = FncInit[7:3]. In this way, a previously stored set of register values downloads automatically on power-up or with a hard or soft reset. See the EEPROM Conditional Processing section for details regarding conditional processing and the way it modifies the download process.

EEPROM Conditional Processing

The condition instructions allow conditional execution of EEPROM instructions during a download sequence. During an upload sequence, however, they are stored as is and have no effect on the upload process.
Note that, during EEPROM downloads, the condition instructions themselves and the end instruction always execute unconditionally.
Conditional processing makes use of two elements: the condition (from Condition 1 to Condition 31) and the condition tag board. The relationships among the condition, the condition tag board, and the EEPROM controller appear schematically in Figure 50.

Figure 50. EEPROM Conditional Processing
The condition is a 5-bit value with 32 possibilities. Condition = 0 is the null condition. When the null condition is in effect, the EEPROM controller executes all instructions unconditionally. The remaining 31 possibilities, condition = 1 through condition = 31, modify the EEPROM controller’s handling of a download sequence. The condition originates from one of two sources (see Figure 50), as follows:
FncInit, Bits[7:3], which is the state of the M3 to M7
multifunction pins at power-up (see the Initial Pin Programming section)
Register 0E01, Bits[4:0]
If Register 0E01, Bits[4:0] ≠ 0, then the condition is the value stored in Register 0E01, Bits[4:0]; otherwise, the condition is FncInit, Bits[7:3]. Note that a nonzero condition present in Register 0E01, Bits[4:0] takes precedence over FncInit, Bits[7:3].
The condition tag board is a table maintained by the EEPROM controller. When the controller encounters a condition instruct­tion, it decodes the B1 through CF instructions as condition = 1 through condition = 31, respectively, and tags that particular condition in the condition tag board. However, the B0 condition instruction decodes as the null condition, for which the controller clears the condition tag board, and subsequent download instructions execute unconditionally (until the controller encounters a new condition instruction).

During download, the EEPROM controller executes or skips instructions depending on the value of condition and the contents of the condition tag board. Note, however, that condition instructions and the end instruction always execute unconditionally during download. If condition = 0, then all instructions during download execute unconditionally. If condition ≠ 0 and there are any tagged conditions in the condition tag board, then the controller executes instructions only if the condition is tagged. If the condition is not tagged, then the controller skips instructions until it encounters a condition instruction that decodes as a tagged condition. Note that the condition tag board allows for multiple conditions to be tagged at any given moment. This conditional processing mechanism enables the user to have one download instruction sequence with many possible outcomes depending on the value of the condition and the order in which the controller encounters condition instructions.

Storing Multiple Device Setups in EEPROM

Conditional processing makes it possible to create a number of different device setups, store them in EEPROM, and download a specific setup on demand. To do so, first program the device control registers for a specific setup. Then, store an upload sequence in the EEPROM scratch pad with the following general form:
1.
Condition instruction (B1 to CF) to identify the setup with
a specific condition (1 to 31)
2.
Data instructions (to save the register contents) along with
any required calibrate and/or I/O update instructions
3.
Pause instruction (FE)
With the upload sequence written to the scratch pad, perform an EEPROM upload (Register 0E02, Bit 0).
Transfer the system clock register contents regardless of the current condition.
Transfer the clock distribution register contents only if condition = 1
Transfer the reference input register contents only if condition = 1, 2, or 3
Calibrate the system clock only if condition = 1, 2, or 3
Execute an I/O update regardless of the value of the condition
Calibrate the system clock regardless of the value of the condition
Reprogram the device control registers for the next desired setup. Then store a new upload sequence in the EEPROM scratch pad with the following general form:
1.
Condition instruction (B0)
2.
The next desired condition instruction (B1 to CF, but
different than the one used during the previous upload to identify a new setup)
3.
Data instructions (to save the register contents) along with
any required calibrate and/or I/O update instructions
4.
Pause instruction (FE)
With the upload sequence written to the scratch pad, perform an EEPROM upload (Register 0E02, Bit 0).
Repeat the process of programming the device control registers for a new setup, storing a new upload sequence in the EEPROM scratch pad (Step 1 through Step 4), and executing an EEPROM upload (Register 0E02, Bit 0) until all of the desired setups have been uploaded to the EEPROM.
Note that, on the final upload sequence stored in the scratch pad, the pause instruction (FE) must be replaced with an end instruction (FF).
To download a specific setup on demand, first store the condition associated with the desired setup in Register 0E01, Bits[4:0]. Then perform an EEPROM download (Register 0E03, Bit 1). Alternatively, to download a specific setup at power-up, apply the required logic levels necessary to encode the desired condition on the M3 to M7 multifunction pins. Then power up the device; an automatic EEPROM download occurs. The condition (as established by the M3 to M7 multifunction pins) guides the download sequence and results in a specific setup.
Keep in mind that the number of setups that can be stored in the EEPROM is limited. The EEPROM can hold a total of 2048 bytes. Each nondata instruction requires one byte of storage. Each data instruction, however, requires N + 4 bytes of storage, where N is the number of transferred register bytes and the other four bytes include the data instruction itself (one byte), the target address (two bytes), and the checksum calculated by the EEPROM controller during the upload sequence (one byte).

The AD9548 serial control port is a flexible, synchronous serial communications port that provides a convenient interface to many industry-standard microcontrollers and microprocessors. The AD9548 serial control port is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats, including Philips IC, Motorola SPI, and Intel SSR protocols. The serial control port allows read/write access to the AD9548 register map.
In SPI mode, single or multiple byte transfers are supported. The SPI port configuration is programmable via Register 0000. This register is integrated into the SPI control logic rather than in the register map and is distinct from the I
2
C Register 0000. It
is also inaccessible to the EEPROM controller.
A functional diagram of the serial control port, including its relationship to the EEPROM, appears in Figure 51.
Although the AD9548 supports both the SPI and I
2
C serial port protocols, only one is active following power-up (as determined by the multifunction pins, M0 to M2, during the startup sequence). That is, the only way to change the serial port protocol is to reset the device (or cycle the device power supply). Both protocols use a common set of control pins as shown in Figure 52.

SPI/I²C PORT SELECTION

Because the AD9548 supports both SPI and IC protocols, the active serial port protocol depends on the logic state of the three multifunction pins, M0 to M2, at startup. If all three pins are set to Logic 0 at startup, then the SPI protocol is active. Otherwise, the IC protocol is active with seven different IC slave address settings based on the startup logic pattern on the M0 to M2 pins

SPI SERIAL PORT OPERATION

Pin Descriptions

The SCLK (serial clock) pin serves as the serial shift clock. This pin is an input. SCLK synchronizes serial control port read and write operations. The rising edge SCLK registers write data bits, and the falling edge registers read data bits. The SCLK pin supports a maximum clock rate of 40 MHz.
The SDIO (serial data input/output) pin is a dual-purpose pin and acts as either an input only (unidirectional mode) or as both an input and an output (bidirectional mode). The AD9548 default SPI mode is bidirectional.
The SDO unidirectional I/O mode. It serves as the data output pin for read operations.

SPI Mode Operation

The SPI port supports both 3-wire (bidirectional) and 4-wire (unidirectional) hardware configurations and both MSB-first and LSB-first data formats. Both the hardware configuration and data format features are programmable. By default, the AD9548 uses the bidirectional MSB-first mode. The reason that bidirectional is the default mode is so that the user can still write to the device, if it is wired for unidirectional operation, to switch to unidirectional mode.

pin can be temporarily deasserted on any byte boundary,
the allowing time for the system controller to process the next byte. CS
can be deasserted only on byte boundaries, however. This
applies to both the instruction and data portions of the transfer.
During stall high periods, the serial control port state machine enters a wait state until all data is sent. If the system controller decides to abort a transfer midstream, then the state machine must be reset by either completing the transfer or by asserting the pin for at least one complete SCLK cycle (but less than eight SCLK cycles). Deasserting the terminates the serial transfer and flushes the buffer.
In the streaming mode (see Tab l e 29 ), any number of data bytes can be transferred in a continuous stream. The register address is automatically incremented or decremented. deasserted at the end of the last byte transferred, thereby ending the stream mode.

Communication Cycle—Instruction Plus Data

The SPI protocol consists of a two-part communication cycle. The first part is a 16-bit instruction word that is coincident with the first 16 SCLK rising edges and a payload. The instruction word provides the AD9548 serial control port with information regarding the payload. The instruction word includes the R/ bit that indicates the direction of the payload transfer (that is, a read or write operation). The instruction word also indicates the number of bytes in the payload and the starting register address of the first payload byte.

Write

If the instruction word indicates a write operation, the payload is written into the serial control port buffer of the AD9548. Data bits are registered on the rising edge of SCLK. The length of the transfer (1, 2, or 3 bytes or streaming mode) depends on the W0 and W1 bits (see Table 29) in the instruction byte. When not streaming, 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 asserted. Deasserting the CS pin on a nonbyte boundary resets the serial control port. Reserved or blank registers are not skipped over automatically during a write sequence. Therefore, the user must know what bit pattern to write to the reserved registers to preserve proper operation of the part. Generally, it does not matter what data is written to blank registers, but it is customary to write 0s.
Most of the serial port registers are buffered (see the Buffered/Active Registers section for details on the difference between buffered and active registers). Therefore, data written into buffered registers does not take effect immediately. An additional operation is needed to transfer buffered serial control port contents to the registers that actually control the device. This is accomplished with an I/O update operation, which is performed in one of two ways. One is by writing a Logic 1 to Register 0005, Bit 0 (this bit is self-clearing). The other is to use an external signal via an appropriately programmed multifunction pin. The user can change as many register bits as desired before executing an I/O update. The I/O update operation transfers the buffer register contents to their active register counterparts.
CS
can be deasserted after each sequence of eight

Read

The AD9548 supports the long instruction mode only. If the instruction word indicates a read operation, the next N × 8 SCLK cycles clock out the data from the address specified in the instruction word. N is the number of data bytes read and depends on the W0 and W1 bits of the instruction word. The readback data is valid on the falling edge of SCLK. Blank registers are not skipped over during readback.
A readback operation takes data from either the serial control port buffer registers or the active registers, as determined by Register 0004, Bit 0.

SPI Instruction Word (16 Bits)

The MSB of the 16-bit instruction word is R/W, which indicates whether the instruction is a read or a write. The next two bits, W1 and W0, indicate the number of bytes in the transfer (see Tabl e 29 which indicates the starting register address of the read/write operation (see ).
). The final 13 bits are the register address (A12 to A0),
Table 3 1

AD9548

SPI MSB-/LSB-First Transfers

The AD9548 instruction word and payload can be MSB first or LSB first. The default for the AD9548 is MSB first. The LSB-first mode can be set by writing a 1 to Register 0000, Bit 6. Immed­iately after the LSB-first bit is set, subsequent serial control port operations are LSB first.
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 payload byte. Subsequent data bytes must follow in order from high address to low address. In MSB-first mode, the serial control port internal address generator decrements for each data byte of the multi­byte transfer cycle.
When Register 0000, Bit 6 = 1 (LSB first), 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 payload byte followed by multiple data bytes. The serial control port internal byte address generator increments for each byte of the multibyte transfer cycle.
For multibyte MSB-first (default) I/O operations, the serial control port register address decrements from the specified starting address toward Address 0000. For multibyte LSB-first I/O operations, the serial control port register address increments from the starting address toward Address 1FFF. Unused addresses are not skipped during multibyte I/O operations; therefore, the user should write the default value to a reserved register and 0s to unmapped registers. Note that it is more efficient to issue a new write command than to write the default value to more than two consecutive reserved (or unmapped) registers.

I²C SERIAL PORT OPERATION

The I2C interface has the advantage of requiring only two control pins and is a de facto standard throughout the I industry. However, its disadvantage is programming speed, which is 400 kbps maximum. The AD9548 IC port design is based on the IC fast mode standard from Philips, so it supports both the 100 kHz standard mode and 400 kHz fast mode. Fast mode imposes a glitch tolerance requirement on the control signals. That is, the input receivers ignore pulses of less than 50 ns duration.
The AD9548 IC port consists of a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). In an IC bus system, the AD9548 is connected to the serial bus (data bus SDA and clock bus SCL) as a slave device; that is, no clock is generated by the AD9548. The AD9548 uses direct 16-bit memory addressing instead of traditional 8-bit memory addressing.
The AD9548 allows up to seven unique slave devices to occupy
2
the I
C bus. These are accessed via a 7-bit slave address
transmitted as part of an I
2
C packet. Only the device with a matching slave address responds to subsequent I The device slave address is 1001xxx (the three right bits are determined by the M0 to M2 pins). The four MSBs (1001) are hard-wired, while the three LSBs (xxx, determined by the M0 to M2 pins) are programmable via the power-up state of the multifunction pins (see the Initial Pin Programming section).

Start/stop functionality is shown in Figure 60. The start condition is characterized by a high-to-low transition on the SDA line while SCL is high. The start condition is always generated by the master to initialize a data transfer. The stop condition is characterized by a low-to-high transition on the SDA line while SCL is high. The stop condition is always generated by the master to terminate a data transfer. Every byte on the SDA line must be eight bits long. Each byte must be followed by an acknowledge bit; bytes are sent MSB first.

The acknowledge bit (A) is the ninth bit attached to any 8-bit data byte. An acknowledge bit is always generated by the receiving device (receiver) to inform the transmitter that the byte has been received.

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, consisting of a 7-bit slave address (MSB first) plus an R/ 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/ master (transmitter) writes to the slave device (receiver). If the

Data is then sent over the serial bus in the format of nine clock pulses, one data byte (eight bits) 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 of up to 2
16
− 1 = 65,535. The data bytes after these two memory address bytes are register data written to or read from the control registers. In read mode, the data bytes after the slave address byte are register data written to or 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 10
th
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 SDA low during the ninth clock pulse. This is known as a nonacknowledge bit. By receiving the nonacknowledge bit, the slave device knows the data transfer is finished and enters idle mode.

I/O PROGRAMMING REGISTERS

The register map spans an address range from 0x0000 through 0x0E3F (0 to 3647, decimal). Each address provides access to 1 byte (eight bits) of data. Each individual register is identified by its four-digit hexadecimal address (for example, Register 0A10). In some cases, a group of addresses collectively define a register (for example, the IRQ mask register consists of Register 0209, Register 020A, Register 020B, Register 020C, Register 020D, Register 020E, Register 020F, and Register 0210).
In general, when a group of registers defines a control parameter, the LSB of the value resides in the D0 position of the register with the lowest address. The bit weight increases right to left, from the lowest register address to the highest register address. For example, the default value of the incremental phase lock offset step size register (Address 0314 to Address 0315) is the 16-bit hexadecimal number, 0x03E8 (not 0xE803).
Note that the EEPROM storage sequence registers (Address 0E10 to Address 0E3F) are an exception to the above convention (see the
EEPROM Instructions section).
An S or C in the Opt column of the register map identifies a register as an active register (otherwise, it is a buffer register). An S entry means that the I/O update signal to the active register is synchronized with the serial port clock or with an input signal driving one of the multifunction pins. On the other hand, a C entry means that the I/O update signal to the active register is synchronized with a clock signal derived from the internal system clock (f
/32), as shown in Figure 65.
S
When reading back a register that has both buffered and active contents, the user can use Register 0004, Bit 0 to select whether to read back the buffer or active contents. Readback of the active contents occurs when Register 0004, Bit 0 = 0, whereas readback of the buffer contents occurs when Register 0004, Bit 0 = 1. Note that a read-only active register requires an I/O update before reading its contents.

BUFFERED/ACTIVE REGISTERS

There are two broad categories of registers in the AD9548, buffered and active (see Figure 65). Buffered registers are those that can be written to directly from the serial port. They do not need an I/O update to apply their contents to the internal device functions. In contrast, active registers require an I/O update to transfer data between the buffer registers and the internal device functions. In operation, the user programs as many buffer registers as desired and then issues an I/O update. The I/O update occurs by writing to Register 0005, Bit 0 = 1 (or by the external application of the necessary logic level to one of the multifunction pins previously programmed as an I/O update input). The contents of buffer registers connected directly to the internal device functions affect those functions immediately. The contents of buffer registers that connect to active registers do not affect the internal device functions until the I/O update event occurs.

AUTOCLEAR REGISTERS

An A in the Opt column of the register map identifies an auto­clear register. Typically, the active value for an autoclear register takes effect following an I/O update. The bit is cleared by the internal device logic upon completion of the prescribed action.

REGISTER ACCESS RESTRICTIONS

Read and write access to the register map may be restricted depending on the register in question, the source and direction of access, and the current state of the device. Each register can be classified into one or more access types. When more than one type applies, the most restrictive condition that applies at the moment is used.
Whenever access is denied to a register, all attempts to read the register return a 0 byte, and all attempts to write to the register are ignored. Access to nonexistent registers is handled in the same way as for a denied register.

Regular Access

Registers with regular access do not fall into any other category. Both read and write access to registers of this type can be from either the serial ports or EEPROM controller. However, only
one of these sources can have access to a register at any given time (access is mutually exclusive). Whenever the EEPROM controller is active, either in load or store mode, it has exclusive access to these registers.

Read-Only Access

An R in the Opt column of the register map identifies read-only registers. Access is available at all times, including when the EEPROM controller is active.

Exclusion from EEPROM Access

An E in the Opt column of the register map identifies a register with contents that are inaccessible to the EEPROM. That is, the contents of this type of register cannot be transferred directly to the EEPROM or vice versa. Note that read-only registers (R) are inaccessible to the EEPROM, as well.

Register 0209 to Register 0210—IRQ Mask

The IRQ mask register bits form a one-to-one correspondence with the bits of the IRQ monitor register (Address 0D02 to Address 0D09). When set to Logic 1, the IRQ mask bits enable the corresponding IRQ monitor bits to indicate an IRQ event. The default for all IRQ mask bits is Logic 0, which prevents the IRQ monitor from detecting any internal interrupts.

Calibrate system clock
Setting this bit (default = 0) initiates synchronization of the clock distribution output. While this bit = 1, the clock distribution output stalls. Synchronization occurs on the 1 to 0 transition of this bit.
Setting this bit (default = 0) initiates an internal calibration of the SYSCLK PLL (assuming it is enabled). The calibration routine automatically selects the proper VCO frequency band and signal amplitude. The internal system clock stalls during the calibration procedure, disabling the device until the calibration is complete (a few milliseconds).

[3] Reset auto sync
[2] Reset TW history
[1] Reset all IRQs
[0] Reset watchdog
Clear phase accumulator
Setting this bit (default = 0) clears DDS phase accumulator (not a recommended
action).
Setting this bit (default = 0) resets the automatic synchronization logic
(see Register 0403).
Setting this bit (default = 0) resets the tuning word history logic (part of holdover
functionality).
Setting this bit (default = 0) clears the entire IRQ monitor register (Register 0D02 to
Register 0D09). It is the equivalent of setting all the bits of the IRQ clearing register
(Register 0A04 to Register 0A0B).
Setting this bit (default = 0) resets the watchdog timer (see Register 0211 to Register
0212). If the timer had timed out, it simply starts a new timing cycle. If the timer has
not yet timed out, it restarts at time zero without causing a timeout event.
Continuously resetting the watchdog timer at intervals less than its timeout period
prevents the watchdog timer from generating a timeout event.

Register 0A04 to Register 0A0B—IRQ Clearing

The IRQ clearing registers are identical in format to the IRQ monitor registers (Address 0D02 to Address 0D09). When set to Logic 1, an IRQ clearing bit resets the corresponding IRQ monitor bit, thereby canceling the interrupt request for the indicated event. The IRQ clearing register is an autoclearing register.

0D0D [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF AA instead of REF A. 0D0E [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF B instead of REF A. 0D0F [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF BB instead of REF A. 0D10 [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF C instead of REF A. 0D11 [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF CC instead of REF A. 0D12 [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF D instead of REF A. 0D13 [7:0] Same as 0D0C but for REF DD instead of REF A.
[7] Profile selected The control logic sets this bit when it assigns Ref A to one of the eight profiles. [6:4] Selected profile The index (0 to 7) of the profile assigned to Ref A.
Note that these bits are meaningless unless Bit 7 = 1. [3] Valid Ref A is valid for use (it is unfaulted and its validation timer has expired). [2] Fault Ref A is not valid for use. [1] Fast
[0] Slow
If Bit 7 = 1, then this bit indicates that the frequency of Ref A is higher than allowed
by its profile settings.
If Bit 7 = 0, then this bit indicates that the frequency of Ref A is above the maximum
input reference frequency supported by the device.
If Bit 7 = 1, then this bit indicates that the frequency of Ref A is lower than allowed by
its profile settings.
If Bit 7 = 0, then this bit indicates that the frequency of Ref A is below the minimum
input reference frequency supported by the device.
