AD9608

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9608 is a monolithic, dual-channel, 1.8 V supply, 10-bit, 105 MSPS/125 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that features a high performance sample-and-hold circuit and an on-chip voltage reference.
The product uses multistage differential pipeline architecture with output error correction logic to provide 10-bit accuracy at 125 MSPS data rates and to guarantee no missing codes over the full operating temperature range.
The ADC contains several features designed to maximize flexibility and minimize system cost, such as programmable clock and data alignment and programmable digital test pattern generation. The available digital test patterns include built-in deterministic and pseudorandom patterns, along with custom user-defined test patterns entered via the serial port interface (SPI).
A differential clock input controls all internal conversion cycles. An optional duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) compensates for wide variations in the clock duty cycle while maintaining excellent overall ADC performance.
The digital output data is presented in offset binary, Gray code, or twos complement format. A data output clock (DCO) is provided for each ADC channel to ensure proper latch timing with receiving logic. Logic levels of 1.8 V CMOS and 1.8 V LVDS are supported. Output data can also be multiplexed onto a single output bus.
AD9608 is available in a 64-lead RoHS-compliant LFCSP and
The is specified over the industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). This product is protected by a U.S. patent.

AD9608

THEORY OF OPERATION

The AD9608 dual ADC design can be used for diversity reception of signals, where the ADCs are operating identically on the same carrier but from two separate antennae. The ADCs can also be operated with independent analog inputs. The user can sample any f
/2 frequency segment from dc to 200 MHz, using appropriate
S
low-pass or band-pass filtering at the ADC inputs with little loss in ADC performance. Operation to 300 MHz analog input is permitted but occurs at the expense of increased ADC noise and distortion.
In nondiversity applications, the AD9608 can be used as a base­band or direct downconversion receiver, where one ADC is used for I input data and the other is used for Q input data.
Synchronization capability is provided to allow synchronized timing between multiple channels or multiple devices.
Programming and control of the AD9608 is accomplished using a 3-bit SPI-compatible serial interface.

ADC ARCHITECTURE

The AD9608 architecture consists of a multistage, pipelined ADC. Each stage provides sufficient overlap to correct for flash errors in the preceding stage. The quantized outputs from each stage are combined into a final 10-bit result in the digital correction logic. The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate with a new input sample while the remaining stages operate with preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of the clock.
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low resolution flash ADC connected to a switched-capacitor DAC and an interstage residue amplifier (for example, a multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC)). The residue amplifier magnifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. One bit of redundancy is used in each stage to facilitate digital correction of flash errors. The last stage consists of a flash ADC.
The output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and passes the data to the CMOS/LVDS output buffers. The output buffers are powered from a separate (DRVDD) supply, allowing digital output noise to be separated from the analog core. During power-down, the output buffers go into a high impedance state.

ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS

The analog input to the AD9608 is a differential switched­capacitor circuit designed for processing differential input signals. This circuit can support a wide common-mode range while maintaining excellent performance. By using an input common-mode voltage of midsupply, users can minimize signal-dependent errors and achieve optimum performance.

The clock signal alternately switches the input circuit between sample-and-hold mode (see Figure 42). When the input circuit is switched to sample mode, the signal source must be capable of charging the sample capacitors and settling within one-half of a clock cycle. A small resistor in series with each input can help reduce the peak transient current injected from the output stage of the driving source. In addition, low Q inductors or ferrite beads can be placed on each leg of the input to reduce high differential capacitance at the analog inputs and, therefore, achieve the maximum bandwidth of the ADC. Such use of low Q inductors or ferrite beads is required when driving the converter front end at high IF frequencies. Either a shunt capacitor or two single-ended capacitors can be placed on the inputs to provide a matching passive network. This ultimately creates a low-pass filter at the input to limit unwanted broadband noise. See the AN-742 Application Note, the AN-827 Application Note, and the Analog Dialogue article “Transformer-Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters” (Volume 39, April 2005) for more information. In general, the precise values depend on the application.

Input Common Mode

The analog inputs of the AD9608 are not internally dc-biased. Therefore, in ac-coupled applications, the user must provide a dc bias externally. Setting the device so that VCM = AVDD/2 is recommended for optimum performance, but the device can function over a wider range with reasonable performance, as shown in Figure 43.
An on-board, common-mode voltage reference is included in the design and is available from the VCM pin. The VCM pin must be decoupled to ground by a 0.1 µF capacitor, as described in the Applications Information section.

Differential Input Configurations

Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9608 in a differential input configuration. For baseband applications, the AD8138, ADA4937-2, and ADA4938-2 differential drivers provide excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC.
The output common-mode voltage of the ADA4938-2 is easily set with the VCM pin of the AD9608 (see Figure 44), and the driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to provide band limiting of the input signal.

The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies that are below a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can also cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve the true SNR performance of the AD9608. For applications above ~10 MHz where SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun coupling is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 46).

An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at frequencies in the second Nyquist zone is to use the AD8352 differential driver (see Figure 47). See the AD8352 data sheet for more information.

In any configuration, the value of Shunt Capacitor C is dependent on the input frequency and source impedance and may need to be reduced or removed. Tab l e 1 1 displays the suggested values to set the RC network. However, these values are dependent on the input signal and should be used only as a starting guide.

Single-Ended Input Configuration

A single-ended input can provide adequate performance in cost-sensitive applications. In this configuration, SFDR and distortion performance degrade due to the large input common­mode swing. If the source impedances on each input are matched, there should be little effect on SNR performance. Figure 48 shows a typical single-ended input configuration.

Internal Reference Connection

A comparator within the AD9608 detects the potential at the SENSE pin and configures the reference into two possible modes, which are summarized in Tabl e 12 . If SENSE is grounded, the reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal resistor divider (see Figure 49), setting VREF to 1.0 V.

When the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD, the internal reference is disabled, allowing the use of an external reference. An internal reference buffer loads the external reference with an equivalent
7.5 kΩ load (see Figure 41). The internal buffer generates the positive and negative full-scale references for the ADC core. Therefore, the external reference must be limited to a maximum of 1.0 V.

CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS

For optimum performance, clock the AD9608 sample clock inputs, CLK+ and CLK−, with a differential signal. The signal is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins via a transformer or capacitors. These pins are biased internally (see Figure 52) and require no external bias.

Clock Input Options

The AD9608 has a very flexible clock input structure. The clock input can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal. Regardless of the type of signal being used, clock source jitter is of the most concern, as described in the Jitter Considerations section.
Figure 53 and Figure 54 show two preferred methods for clock­ing the AD9608 (at clock rates up to 1 GHz prior to internal CLK divider). A low jitter clock source is converted from a single­ended signal to a differential signal using either an RF transformer or an RF balun.
The RF balun configuration is recommended for clock frequencies between 125 MHz and 1 GHz, and the RF transformer is recom­mended for clock frequencies from 10 MHz to 200 MHz. The back-to-back Schottky diodes across the transformer/balun secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9608 to approxi­mately 0.8 V p-p differential.
This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of the clock from feeding through to other portions of the AD9608 while preserving the fast rise and fall times of the signal that are critical to a low jitter performance.

Input Clock Divider

The AD9608 contains an input clock divider with the ability to divide the input clock by integer values between 1 and 8.
The AD9608 clock divider can be synchronized using the external SYNC input. Bit 1 and Bit 2 of Register 0x3A allow the clock divider to be resynchronized on every SYNC signal or only on the first SYNC signal after the register is written. A valid SYNC causes the clock divider to reset to its initial state. This synchronization feature allows multiple parts to have their clock dividers aligned to guarantee simultaneous input sampling.

Clock Duty Cycle

Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a variety of internal timing signals and, as a result, may be sensitive to clock duty cycle. A ±5% tolerance is commonly required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance characteristics.
The AD9608 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) that retimes the nonsampling (falling) edge, providing an internal clock signal with a nominal 50% duty cycle. This allows the user to provide a wide range of clock input duty cycles without affecting the performance of the AD9608. Noise and distortion perform­ance are nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles with the DCS on, as shown in Figure 58.
Jitter in the rising edge of the input is still of concern and is not easily reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The duty cycle control loop does not function for clock rates less than 20 MHz, nominally. The loop has a time constant associated with it that must be considered in applications in which the clock rate can change dynamically. A wait time of 1.5 µs to 5 µs is required after a dynamic clock frequency increase or decrease before the DCS loop is relocked to the input signal.

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9608. To avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise, keep power supplies for clock drivers separate from the ADC output driver supplies. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators make the best clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type of source (by gating, dividing, or another method), it should be retimed by the original clock at the last step.
For more information, see the AN-501 Application Note and the
AN-756 Application Note, available on www.analog.com.

CHANNEL/CHIP SYNCHRONIZATION

The AD9608 has a SYNC input that offers the user flexible synchronization options for synchronizing sample clocks across multiple ADCs. The input clock divider can be enabled to synchronize on a single occurrence of the SYNC signal or on every occurrence. The SYNC input is internally synchronized to the sample clock; however, to ensure that there is no timing uncertainty between multiple parts, the SYNC input signal should be externally synchronized to the input clock signal, meeting the setup and hold times shown in Tabl e 5 . Drive the SYNC input using a single-ended CMOS-type signal.

POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE

As shown in Figure 60, the analog core power dissipated by the AD9608 is proportional to its sample rate. The digital power dissipation of the CMOS outputs are determined primarily by the strength of the digital drivers and the load on each output bit.

where N is the number of output bits (22, in the case of the AD9608).
This maximum current occurs when every output bit switches on every clock cycle, that is, a full-scale square wave at the Nyquist frequency of f
/2. In practice, the DRVDD current is estab-

lished by the average number of output bits switching, which is determined by the sample rate and the characteristics of the analog input signal.
Reducing the capacitive load presented to the output drivers can minimize digital power consumption. The data in Figure 60 was taken in CMOS mode using the same operating conditions as those used for the power supplies and power consumption parameters in Tab l e 1 , with a 5 pF load on each output driver.

AD9608
The AD9608 is placed in power-down mode either by the SPI port or by asserting the PDWN pin high. In this state, the ADC typically dissipates <2 mW. During power-down, the output drivers are placed in a high impedance state. Asserting the PDWN pin low returns the AD9608 to its normal operating mode. Note that PDWN is referenced to the digital output driver supply (DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply voltage.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks, and clock. Internal capacitors are discharged when entering power­down mode and then must be recharged when returning to normal operation. As a result, wake-up time is related to the time spent in power-down mode, and shorter power-down cycles result in proportionally shorter wake-up times.
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode allows the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when faster wake-up times are required. See the Memory Map section for more details.

DIGITAL OUTPUTS

The AD9608 output drivers can be configured to interface with either 1.8 V CMOS or 1.8 V LVDS logic families. The default output mode is CMOS, with each channel output on separate busses as shown in Figure 2.
In CMOS output mode, the CMOS output drivers are sized to provide sufficient output current to drive a wide variety of logic families. However, large drive currents tend to cause current glitches on the supplies and may affect converter performance.
Applications requiring the ADC to drive large capacitive loads or large fanouts may require external buffers or latches.
The CMOS output can also be configured for interleaved CMOS output mode via the SPI port. In interleaved CMOS mode, the data for both channels is output onto a single output bus to reduce the total number of traces required. The timing diagram for interleaved CMOS output mode is shown in Figure 3.
The interleaved CMOS output mode is enabled globally onto both output channels via Bit 5 in Register 0x14. The unused channel output can be disabled by selecting the appropriate bit (Bit 1 or Bit 0) in Register 0x05 and then writing a 1 to the local (channel­specific) output port disable bit (Bit 4) in Register 0x14.
The output data format can be selected to be either offset binary or twos complement by setting the SCLK/DFS pin when operating in the external pin mode (see Tab l e 1 3 ).
As detailed in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI, the data format can be selected for offset binary, twos complement, or Gray code when using the SPI control.

Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)

The AD9608 has a flexible three-state ability for the digital output pins. The three-state mode is enabled through the SPI interface and can subsequently be controlled using the OEB pin or through the SPI. Once enabled via the SPI (Bit 7) in Register 0x101 and the OEB pin is low, the output data drivers and DCOs are enabled. If the OEB pin is high, the output data drivers and DCOs are placed in a high impedance state. This OEB function is not intended for rapid access to the data bus. Note that OEB is referenced to the digital output driver supply (DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply voltage.
When using the SPI interface, the data outputs and DCO of each channel can be independently three-stated by using the output port disable bit (Bit 4) in Register 0x14.

TIMING

The AD9608 provides latched data with a pipeline delay of 16 clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation delay (t
Minimize the length of the output data lines and loads placed on them to reduce transients within the AD9608. These transients can degrade converter dynamic performance.
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9608 is 10 MSPS. At clock rates below 10 MSPS, dynamic performance can degrade.

Data Clock Output (DCO)

The AD9608 provides two data clock output (DCO) signals intended for capturing the data in an external register. In CMOS output mode, the data outputs are valid on the rising edge of DCO, unless the DCO clock polarity has been changed via the SPI. In LVDS output mode, the DCO and data output switching edges are closely aligned. Additional delay can be added to the DCO output using SPI Register 0x17 to increase the data setup time. In this case, the Channel A output data is valid on the rising edge of DCO, and the Channel B output data is valid on the falling edge of DCO. See Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4 for a graphical timing description of the output modes.

AD9608

BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) AND OUTPUT TEST

The AD9608 includes a built-in test feature designed to enable verification of the integrity of each channel, as well as to facilitate board level debugging. A built-in self-test (BIST) feature that verifies the integrity of the digital datapath of the AD9608 is included. Various output test options are also provided to place predictable values on the outputs of the AD9608.

BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST)

The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected
AD9608 signal path. Perform the BIST test after a reset to ensure
that the part is in a known state. During BIST, data from an internal pseudorandom noise (PN) source is driven through the digital datapath of both channels, starting at the ADC block output. At the datapath output, CRC logic calculates a signature from the data. The BIST sequence runs for 512 cycles and then stops. Once completed, the BIST compares the signature results with a predetermined value. If the signatures match, the BIST sets Bit 0 of Register 0x24, signifying that the test passed. If the BIST test fails, Bit 0 of Register 0x24 is cleared. The outputs are connected during this test, so the PN sequence can be observed as it runs.
Writing the value 0x05 to Register 0x0E runs the BIST. This enables Bit 0 (BIST enable) of Register 0x0E and resets the PN sequence generator, Bit 2 (initialize BIST sequence) of Register 0x0E. At the completion of the BIST, Bit 0 of Register 0x24 is automatically cleared. The PN sequence can be continued from its last value by writing a 0 in Bit 2 of Register 0x0E. However, if the PN sequence is not reset, the signature calculation does not equal the predetermined value at the end of the test. At that point, the user needs to rely on verifying the output data.

OUTPUT TEST MODES

The output test options are described in Ta bl e 18 at Address 0x0D. When an output test mode is enabled, the analog section of the ADC is disconnected from the digital back-end blocks and the test pattern is run through the output formatting block. Some of the test patterns are subject to output formatting, and some are not. The PN generators from the PN sequence tests can be reset by setting Bit 4 or Bit 5 of Register 0x0D. These tests can be performed with or without an analog signal (if present, the analog signal is ignored), but they do require an encode clock. For more information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

AD9608

SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)

The AD9608 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to configure the converter for specific functions or operations through a structured register space provided inside the ADC. The SPI gives the user added flexibility and customization, depending on the application. Addresses are accessed via the serial port and can be written to or read from via the port. Memory is organized into bytes that can be further divided into fields, which are docu­mented in the Memor y Map section. For detailed operational information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI

Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK/DFS pin, the SDIO/DCS pin, and the CSB pin (see Tab l e 1 5 ). The SCLK/DFS (a serial clock) is used to synchronize the read and write data presented from and to the ADC. The SDIO/DCS (serial data input/output) is a dual-purpose pin that allows data to be sent to and read from the internal ADC memory map registers. The CSB (chip select bar) is an active low control that enables or disables the read and write cycles.

SDIO
serves as an input or an output, depending on the instruction being sent and the relative position in the timing frame. Chip select bar. An active low control that gates the read

and write cycles.
The falling edge of the CSB, in conjunction with the rising edge of the SCLK, determines the start of the framing. An example of the serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 62 and Tabl e 5.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be held low indefinitely, which permanently enables the device; this is called streaming. The CSB can stall high between bytes to allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high, SPI functions are placed in high impedance mode. This mode turns on any SPI pin secondary functions.
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted. Data follows the instruction phase, and its length is determined by the W0 and W1 bits.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to read the contents of the on-chip memory. The first bit of the first byte in a multibyte serial data transfer frame indicates whether a read command or a write command is issued. If the instruction is a readback operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an output at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
All data is composed of 8-bit words. Data can be sent in MSB­first mode or in LSB-first mode. MSB first is the default on power-up and can be changed via the SPI port configuration register. For more information about this and other features, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

AD9608

HARDWARE INTERFACE

The pins described in Table 15 comprise the physical interface between the user programming device and the serial port of the
AD9608. The SCLK pin and the CSB pin function as inputs
when using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is bidirectional, functioning as an input during write phases and as an output during readback.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI configuration is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note, Micro- controller-Based Serial Port Interface (SPI) Boot Circuit.
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the SCLK signal, the CSB signal, and the SDIO signal are typically asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the AD9608 to prevent these signals from transi­tioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.
Some pins serve a dual function when the SPI interface is not being used. When the pins are strapped to DRVDD or ground during device power-on, they are associated with a specific function. Table 16 describes the strappable functions supported on the AD9608.

CONFIGURATION WITHOUT THE SPI

In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers, the SDIO/DCS pin, the SCLK/DFS pin, and the PDWN pin serve as standalone CMOS-compatible control pins. When the device is powered up, it is assumed that the user intends to use the pins as static control lines for the duty cycle stabilizer, output data format, and power-down feature control. In this mode, the CSB chip select bar should be connected to AVDD, which disables the serial port interface.
When the device is in SPI mode, the PDWN and OEB pins (if enabled) remain active. For SPI control of output enable and power-down, the OEB and PDWN pins should be set to their default states.

MEMORY MAP

READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE

Each row in the memory map register table has eight bit locations. The memory map is roughly divided into three sections: the chip configuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02); the channel index and transfer registers (Address 0x05 and Address 0xFF) and the ADC functions registers, including setup, control, and test (Address 0x08 to Address 0x102).
The memory map register table (see Tab l e 1 8 ) lists the default hexadecimal value for each hexadecimal address shown. The column with the heading Bit 7 (MSB) is the start of the default hexadecimal value given. For example, Address 0x05, the device index register, has a hexadecimal default value of 0x03. This means that in Address 0x05, Bits[7:2] = 0, and Bits[1:0] = 1. This setting is the default channel index setting. The default value results in both ADC channels receiving the next write command. For more information about this function and others, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This application note details the functions controlled by Register 0x00 to Register 0xFF. The remaining registers are documented in the Memory Map Register Descriptions section.

Open Locations

All address and bit locations that are not included in Tab l e 1 8 are not currently supported for this device. Unused bits of a valid address location should be written with 0s. Writing to these locations is required only when part of an address location is open (for example, Address 0x05). If the entire address location is open (for example, Address 0x13), this address location should not be written to.

Default Values

After the AD9608 is reset, critical registers are loaded with default values. The default values for the registers are given in the memory map register table, Tab l e 1 8 .

Logic Levels

An explanation of logic level terminology follows:
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.”
“Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.”

Channel-Specific Registers

Some channel setup functions, such as the signal monitor thresholds, can be programmed differently for each channel. In these cases, channel address locations are internally duplicated for each channel. These registers and bits are designated in Tab l e 1 8 as local. These local registers and bits can be accessed by setting the appropriate Channel A or Channel B bits in Register 0x05. If both bits are set, the subsequent write affects the registers of both channels. In a read cycle, only Channel A or Channel B should be set to read one of the two registers. If both bits are set during an SPI read cycle, the part returns the value for Channel A. Registers and bits designated as global in Ta b le 18 affect the entire part or the channel features for which independent settings are not allowed between channels.

MEMORY MAP REGISTER DESCRIPTIONS

For additional information about functions controlled in Register 0x00 to Register 0xFF, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

Power Modes (Register 0x08)

Bits[7:6]—Open
Bit 5—External Power-Down Pin Function
If set, the external PDWN pin initiates power-down mode. If clear, the external PDWN pin initiates standby mode.
Bits[4:2]—Open
Bits[1:0]—Internal Power-Down Mode
In normal operation (Bits[1:0] = 00), both ADC channels are active.
In power-down mode (Bits[1:0] = 01), the digital data path clocks are disabled while the digital data path is reset. Outputs are disabled.
In standby mode (Bits[1:0] = 10), the digital data path clocks and the outputs are disabled.
During a digital reset (Bits[1:0] = 11), the digital data path clocks are disabled while the digital data path is held in reset. The outputs are enabled in this state. For optimum performance, it is recom­mended that both ADC channels be reset simultaneously. This is accomplished by ensuring that both channels are selected via Register 0x05 prior to issuing the digital reset instruction.

Enhancement Control (Register 0x0C)

Bits[7:3]—Open
Bit 2—Chop Mode
For applications that are sensitive to offset voltages and other low frequency noise, such as homodyne or direct-conversion receivers, chopping in the first stage of the AD9628 is a feature that can be enabled by setting Bit 2. In the frequency domain, chopping translates offsets and other low frequency noise to f
/2 where it can be filtered.
CLK
Bits[1:0]—Open

Output Mode (Register 0x14)

Bits[7:6]—Output Port Logic Type
00 = CMOS, 1.8 V 10 = LVDS, ANSI 11 = LVDS, reduced range
Bit 5—Output Interleave Enable
For LVDS outputs, setting Bit 5 enables interleaving. Channel A is sent coincident with a high DCO clock, and Channel B is coincident with a low DCO clock. Clearing Bit 5 disables the
interleaving feature. Channel A is sent on least significant bits (LSBs), and Channel B is sent on most significant bits (MSBs). The even bits are sent coincident with a high DCO clock, and the odd bits are sent coincident with a low DCO clock.
For CMOS outputs, setting Bit 5 enables interleaving in CMOS DDR mode. On ADC Output Port A, Channel A is sent coincident with a low DCO clock, and Channel B is coincident with a high DCO clock. On ADC Output Port B, Channel B is sent coincident with a low DCO clock, and Channel A is coincident with a high DCO clock. Clearing Bit 5 disables the interleaving feature, and data is output in CMOS SDR mode. Channel A is sent to Port A, and Channel B is sent to Port B.
Bit 4—Output Port Disable
Setting Bit 4 high disables the output port for the channels selected in Bits[1:0] of the device index register (Register 0x05).
Bit 3—Open
Bit 2—Output Invert
Setting Bit 2 high inverts the output port data for the channels selected in Bits[1:0] of the device index register (Register 0x05).
Bits[1:0]—Output Format
00 = offset binary 01 = twos complement 10 = Gray code
Sync Control (Register 0x3A)
Bits[7:3]—Open
Bit 2—Clock Divider Next Sync Only
If the clock divider sync enable bit (Address 0x3A, Bit 1) is high, Bit 2 allows the clock divider to sync to the first sync pulse it receives and to ignore the rest. The clock divider sync enable bit resets after it syncs.
Bit 1—Clock Divider Sync Enable
Bit 1 gates the sync pulse to the clock divider. The sync signal is enabled when Bit 1 is high. This is continuous sync mode.
Bit 0—Open

Transfer (Register 0xFF)

All registers except Register 0x100 are updated the moment they are written. Setting Bit 0 of this transfer register high initializes the settings in the ADC sample rate override register (Address 0x100).

Sample Rate Override (Register 0x100)

This register is designed to allow the user to downgrade the device. Any attempt to upgrade the default speed grade results in a chip power-down. Settings in this register are not initialized until Bit 0 of the transfer register (Register 0xFF) is written high.

User I/O Control 2 (Register 0x101)

Bit 7—OEB Pin Enable
If the OEB pin enable bit (Bit 7) is set, the OEB pin is enabled. If Bit 7 is clear, the OEB pin is disabled (default).

AD9608

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

DESIGN GUIDELINES

Before starting design and layout of the AD9608 as a system, it is recommended that the designer become familiar with these guidelines, which discuss the special circuit connections and layout requirements that are needed for certain pins.

Power and Ground Recommendations

When connecting power to the AD9608, it is recommended that two separate 1.8 V supplies be used. Use one supply for analog (AVDD); use a separate supply for the digital outputs (DRVDD). For both AVDD and DRVDD, several different decoupling capa­citors should be used to cover both high and low frequencies. Place these capacitors close to the point of entry at the PCB level and close to the pins of the part, with minimal trace length.
A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the
AD9608. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance is easily achieved.

LVDS Operation

The AD9608 defaults to CMOS output mode on power-up. If LVDS operation is desired, this mode must be programmed, using the SPI configuration registers after power-up. When the
AD9608 powers up in CMOS mode with LVDS termination
resistors (100 Ω) on the outputs, the DRVDD current can be higher than the typical value until the part is placed in LVDS mode. This additional DRVDD current does not cause damage to the AD9608, but it should be taken into account when consid­ering the maximum DRVDD current for the part.
To avoid this additional DRVDD current, the AD9608 outputs can be disabled at power-up by taking the PDWN pin high. After the part is placed into LVDS mode via the SPI port, the PDWN pin can be taken low to enable the outputs.

Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations

It is mandatory that the exposed paddle on the underside of the ADC be connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the best electrical and thermal performance. A continuous, exposed (no solder mask) copper plane on the PCB should mate to the
AD9608 exposed paddle, Pin 0.
The copper plane should have several vias to achieve the lowest possible resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to flow through the bottom of the PCB. These vias should be filled or plugged to prevent solder wicking through the vias, which can compromise the connection.
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and the PCB, a silkscreen should be overlaid to partition the continuous plane on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow process. Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees only one tie point between the ADC and the PCB. For detailed information about packaging and PCB layout of chip scale packages, see the AN-772 Application Note, A Design and
Manufacturing Guide for the Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP), at www.analog.com.
VCM
The VCM pin should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1 F capacitor.

Reference Decoupling

The VREF pin should be externally decoupled to ground with a low ESR, 1.0 F capacitor in parallel with a low ESR, 0.1 F ceramic capacitor.

SPI Port

The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the
AD9608 to keep these signals from transitioning at the converter
inputs during critical sampling periods.
