GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9639 is a quad, 12-bit, 210 MSPS analog-to-digital con­verter (ADC) with an on-chip temperature sensor and a high
speed serial interface. It is designed to support the digitizing
of high frequency, wide dynamic range signals with an input
bandwidth of up to 780 MHz. The output data is serialized
and presented in packet format, consisting of channel-specific
information, coded samples, and error code correction.

The ADC requires a single 1.8 V power supply. The input clock
can be driven differentially with a sine wave, LVPECL, CMOS,
or LVDS. A clock duty cycle stabilizer allows high performance
at full speed with a wide range of clock duty cycles. The on-chip
reference eliminates the need for external decoupling and can
be adjusted by means of SPI control.

Various power-down and standby modes are supported. The
ADC typically consumes 150 mW per channel with the digital
link still in operation when standby operation is enabled.

Figure 1.

Fabricated on an advanced CMOS process, the AD9639 is avail­able in a Pb-free/RoHS-compliant, 72-lead LFCSP package. It is
specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

1. Four ADCs are contained in a small, space-saving package.

2. An on-chip PLL allows users to provide a single ADC

sampling clock; the PLL distributes and multiplies up to
produce the corresponding data rate clock.

3. The JESD204 coded data rate supports up to 4.2 Gbps

per channel.

4. The AD9639 operates from a single 1.8 V power supply.

5. Flexible synchronization schemes and programmable

mode pins are available.

6. An on-chip temperature sensor is included.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.

THERMAL RESISTANCE

The exposed paddle must be soldered to the ground plane for the
LFCSP package. Soldering the exposed paddle to the printed
circuit board (PCB) increases the reliability of the solder joints,
maximizing the thermal capability of the package.

Typical θJA, θJB, and θJC values are specified for a 4-layer board in
still air. Airflow increases heat dissipation, effectively reducing
θ

. In addition, metal in direct contact with the package leads

THEORY OF OPERATION

The AD9639 architecture consists of a differential input buffer and
a front-end sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) followed by a pipe­lined switched-capacitor ADC. The quantized outputs from each
stage are combined into a final 12-bit result in the digital correction
logic. The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate
on a new input sample while the remaining stages operate on 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 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 simply consists of a flash ADC.

The input stage contains a differential SHA that can be ac- or
dc-coupled in differential or single-ended mode. The output of
the pipeline ADC is put into its final serial format by the data
serializer, encoder, and CML drivers block. The data rate multiplier
creates the clock used to output the high speed serial data at the
CML outputs.

ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS

The analog input to the AD9639 is a differential buffer. This
input is optimized to provide superior wideband performance
and requires that the analog inputs be driven differentially. SNR
and SINAD performance degrades if the analog input is driven
with a single-ended signal.

For best dynamic performance, the source impedances driving
VIN + x and VIN − x should be matched such that common-mode
settling errors are symmetrical. These errors are reduced by the
common-mode rejection of the ADC. A small resistor in series

with each input can help to 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. The 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-827
Application Note and the Analog Dialogue article “Tr a ns f or m er ­Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters” (Volume 39,
Number 2, April 2005) for more information on this subject. In
general, the precise values depend on the application.

Maximum SNR performance is achieved by setting the ADC to
the largest span in a differential configuration. In the case of the
AD9639, the default input span is 1.25 V p-p. To configure the ADC
for a different input span, see the V

register (Address 0x18).

REF

For the best performance, an input span of 1.25 V p-p or greater
should be used (see Tabl e 15 for details).

Differential Input Configurations

The AD9639 can be driven actively or passively; in either case,
optimum performance is achieved by driving the analog input
differentially. For example, using the ADA4937 differential ampli­fier to drive the AD9639 provides excellent performance and a
flexible interface to the ADC for baseband and second Nyquist
(~100 MHz IF) applications (see Figure 36 and Figure 37). In either
application, use 1% resistors for good gain matching. Note that the
dc-coupled configuration shows some degradation in spurious per­formance. For more information, consult the ADA4937 data sheet.

For applications where SNR is a key parameter, differential
transformer coupling is the recommended input configuration
to achieve the true performance of the AD9639 (see Figure 38
to Figure 40).

Regardless of the configuration, the value of the shunt capacitor, C,
is dependent on the input frequency and may need to be reduced
or removed.

Single-Ended Input Configuration

A single-ended input may provide adequate performance in
cost-sensitive applications. In this configuration, SFDR and

07973-013

distortion performance can degrade due to input common-mode
swing mismatch. If the application requires a single-ended input
configuration, ensure that the source impedances on each input
are well matched to achieve the best possible performance. A
full-scale input of 1.25 V p-p can be applied to the VIN + x pin
of the AD9639 while the VIN − x pin is terminated. Figure 42

CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS

For optimum performance, the AD9639 sample clock inputs
(CLK+ and CLK−) should be clocked with a differential signal.
This signal is typically ac-coupled to the CLK+ and CLK− pins
via a transformer or capacitors. These pins are biased internally
to 1.2 V and require no additional biasing.

Figure 43 shows a preferred method for clocking the AD9639. The
low jitter clock source is converted from a single-ended signal
to a differential signal using an RF transformer. The back-to­back Schottky diodes across the secondary transformer limit
clock excursions into the AD9639 to approximately 0.8 V p-p
differential. This helps to prevent the large voltage swings of the
clock from feeding through to other portions of the AD9639,
and it preserves the fast rise and fall times of the signal, which
are critical to low jitter performance.

Clock Duty Cycle Considerations

Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a
variety of internal timing signals. As a result, these ADCs may
be sensitive to the clock duty cycle. Commonly, a 5% tolerance
is required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic perfor­mance characteristics.

The AD9639 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) that retimes
the nonsampling edge, providing an internal clock signal with a
nominal 50% duty cycle. This allows a wide range of clock input
duty cycles without affecting the performance of the AD9639.
When the DCS is on (default), noise and distortion performance
are nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles. However, some
applications may require the DCS function to be off. If so, keep
in mind that the dynamic range performance may be affected
when operated in this mode. See the Memory Map section for
more details on using this feature.

Jitter in the rising edge of the input is an important concern,
and it is not reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The
duty cycle control loop does not function for clock rates of less
than 50 MHz nominal. It is not recommended that this ADC
clock be dynamic in nature. Moving the clock around dynami­cally requires long wait times for the back end serial capture to
retime and resynchronize to the receiving logic. This long time
constant far exceeds the time that it takes for the DCS and the
PLL to lock and stabilize. Only in rare applications would it be
necessary to disable the DCS circuitry in the clock register (see
Address 0x09 in Tab le 1 5 ). Keeping the DCS circuit enabled is
recommended to maximize ac performance.

Clock Jitter Considerations

High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality of the
clock input. The degradation in SNR at a given input frequency (f
due only to aperture jitter (t

SNR Degradation = 20 × log 10(1/2 × π × f

) can be calculated as follows:

J

× tJ)

A

A

In this equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the root mean
square of all jitter sources, including the clock input, analog input
signal, and ADC aperture jitter. IF undersampling applications
are particularly sensitive to jitter (see Figure 48).

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases
where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9639.
Power supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the
ADC output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal
with digital noise. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators are
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 during the last step.

Refer to the AN-501 Application Note, the AN-756 Application
Note, and the Analog Dialogue article, “Analog-to-Digital Converter
Clock Optimization: A Test Engineering Perspective” (Volume 42,
Number 2, February 2008) for in-depth information about jitter
performance as it relates to ADCs (visit www.analog.com).

Power Dissipation

As shown in Figure 49 and Figure 50, the power dissipated by
the AD9639 is proportional to its clock rate. The digital power
dissipation does not vary significantly because it is determined
primarily by the DRVDD supply and the bias current of the
digital output drivers.

DIGITAL OUTPUTS

Serial Data Frame

The AD9639 digital output complies with the JEDEC Standard
No. 204 (JESD204), which describes a serial interface for data
converters. JESD204 uses 8B/10B encoding as well as optional
scrambling. K28.5 and K28.7 comma symbols are used for frame
synchronization. The receiver is required to lock onto the serial
data stream and recover the clock with the use of a PLL. (Refer
to IEEE Std 802.3-2002, Section 3, for a complete 8B/10B and
comma symbol description.)

The 8B/10B encoding works by taking eight bits of data (an
octet) and encoding them into a 10-bit symbol. In the AD9639,
the 12-bit converter word is broken into two octets. Bit 11
through Bit 4 are in the first octet. The second octet contains
Bit 3 through Bit 0 and four tail bits. The MSB of the tail bits can
also be used to indicate an out-of-range condition. The tail bits
are configured using the JESD204 register, Address 0x033[3].

The two resulting octets are optionally scrambled and encoded
into their corresponding 10-bit code. The scrambling function
is controlled by the JESD204 register, Address 0x033[0]. Figure 51
shows how the 12-bit data is taken from the ADC, the tail bits are
added, the two octets are scrambled, and the octets are encoded
into two 10-bit symbols. Figure 52 illustrates the data format.

The scrambler uses a self-synchronizing polynomial-based
algorithm defined by the equation 1 + x

14

+ x15. The descrambler
in the receiver should be a self-synchronizing version of the
scrambler polynomial. A 16-bit parallel implementation is
shown in Figure 54.

Refer to JEDEC Standard No. 204-April 2006, Section 5.1, for
complete transport layer and data format details and Section 5.2
for a complete explanation of scrambling and descrambling.

Initial Synchronization

The serial interface must synchronize to the frame boundaries
before data can be properly decoded. The JESD204 standard has
a synchronization routine to identify the frame boundary. The
PGMx pins are used as

SYNC

pins by default. When the

SYNC

pin is taken low for at least two clock cycles, the AD9639 enters
the synchronization mode. The AD9639 transmits the K28.5
comma symbol until the receiver can identify the frame boundary.
The receiver should then deassert the sync signal (take

SYNC

high) and the ADC begins transmitting real data. The first non­K28.5 symbol is the MSB symbol of the 12-bit data.

ICOUNTER = ‘0’;
VCOUNTER = ‘0’;
SYNC_REQUEST = ‘1’;
IF /K28.5/ AND /VALID/ THEN
KCOUNTER = KCOUNT E R + ‘1’;
ELSE
KCOUNTER = ‘0’;
END IF;

To minimize skew and time misalignment between each channel
of the digital outputs, the following actions should be taken to
ensure that each channel data frame is within ±1 clock cycle of
the sample clock. For some receiver logic, this is not required.

1. Full power-down through external PDWN pin.

2. Chip reset via external RESET pin.

3. Power-up by releasing external PDWN pin.

Continuous Synchronization

Continuous synchronization is part of the JESD204 specification.
The 12-bit word requires two octets to transmit all the data. The
two octets (MSB and LSB) are called a frame. When scrambling
is disabled and the LSB octets of two consecutive frames are the
same, the second LSB octet is replaced by a K28.7 comma symbol.
The receiver is responsible for replacing the K28.7 comma
symbol with the LSB octet of the previous frame.

/REPLACE_K28.7/

Replace K28.7 at the decoder output as follows. When scrambling is disabled, replace K28.7 with the LSB
octet that was decoded at the same position in the previous frame; when scrambling is enabled, replace

K28.7 at the decoder output with D28.7.
/RESET_OCTET_COUNTER/ Reset octet counter to 0 at reception of next octet.
/VALID/ Asserted by receiver to indicate that the current symbol is a valid symbol given the current running disparity.

When scrambling is enabled, any D28.7 symbols found in the
LSB octet of a frame are replaced with K28.7 comma symbols.
The receiver is responsible for replacing the K28.7 comma
symbols with D28.7 symbols when in this mode.

By looking for K28.7 symbols, the receiver can ensure that it is
still synchronized to the frame boundary.

Digital Outputs and Timing

The AD9639 has differential digital outputs that power up
by default. The driver current is derived on chip and sets the
output current at each output equal to a nominal 4 mA. Each
output presents a 100 Ω dynamic internal termination to reduce
unwanted reflections.

A 100 Ω differential termination resistor should be placed at
each receiver input to result in a nominal 400 mV peak-to-peak
swing at the receiver. Alternatively, single-ended 50 Ω termina­tion can be used. When single-ended termination is used, the
termination voltage should be DRVDD/2; otherwise, ac coupling
capacitors can be used to terminate to any single-ended voltage.

The AD9639 digital outputs can interface with custom ASICs
and FPGA receivers, providing superior switching performance
in noisy environments. Single point-to-point network topologies
are recommended with a single differential 100 Ω termination
resistor placed as close to the receiver logic as possible. The
common mode of the digital output automatically biases itself
to half the supply of DRVDD if dc-coupled connecting is used.
For receiver logic that is not within the bounds of the DRVDD
supply, an ac-coupled connection should be used. Simply place
a 0.1 µF capacitor on each output pin and derive a 100 Ω
differential termination close to the receiver side.

If there is no far-end receiver termination or if there is poor
differential trace routing, timing errors may result. To avoid
such timing errors, it is recommended that the trace length be
less than 6 inches and that the differential output traces be close
together and at equal lengths.

Figure 59 shows an example of the digital output (default) data
eye and a time interval error (TIE) jitter histogram with trace
lengths less than 6 inches on standard FR-4 material. Figure 60
shows an example of trace lengths exceeding 12 inches on stan­dard FR-4 material. Note that the TIE jitter histogram reflects
the decrease of the data eye opening as the edge deviates from
the ideal position. It is the user’s responsibility to determine
whether the waveforms meet the timing budget of the design
when the trace lengths exceed 6 inches.

Additional SPI options allow the user to further increase the
output driver voltage swing of all four outputs to drive longer
trace lengths (see Address 0x15 in Tab le 1 5 ). Even though this
produces sharper rise and fall times on the data edges and is less
prone to bit errors, the power dissipation of the DRVDD supply
increases when this option is used. See the Memory Map section
for more details.

The format of the output data is offset binary by default.
Tabl e 10 provides an example of this output coding format.
To change the output data format to twos complement or gray
code, see the Memory Map section (Address 0x14 in Tabl e 15 ).

The lowest typical clock rate is 100 MSPS. For clock rates slower
than 100 MSPS, the user can set Bit 3 to 0 in the serial control
register (Address 0x21 in Tabl e 15 ). This option allows the user
to adjust the PLL loop bandwidth to use clock rates as low as
50 MSPS.

Rev. A | Page 26 of 36

AD9639

Setting Bit 2 in the output mode register (Address 0x14) allows
the user to invert the digital outputs from their nominal state.
This is not to be confused with inverting the serial stream to an
LSB first mode. In default mode, as shown in Figure 2, the MSB
is first in the data output serial stream. However, this order can
be inverted so that the LSB is first in the data output serial stream.

There are eight digital output test pattern options available that
can be initiated through the SPI (see Tabl e 12 for the output bit
sequencing options). This feature is useful when validating
receiver capture and timing. Some test patterns have two serial
sequential words and can be alternated in various ways, depending
on the test pattern selected. Note that some patterns do not
adhere to the data format select option. In addition, custom
user-defined test patterns can be assigned in the user pattern
registers (Address 0x19 through Address 0x20).

The PN sequence short pattern produces a pseudorandom bit
sequence that repeats itself every 2

9

− 1 (511) bits. A description
of the PN sequence short and how it is generated can be found
in Section 5.1 of the ITU-T O.150 (05/96) recommendation.
The only difference is that the starting value must be a specific
value instead of all 1s (see Tab le 1 1 for the initial values).

The PN sequence long pattern produces a pseudorandom bit
sequence that repeats itself every 2

23

− 1 (8,388,607) bits. A
description of the PN sequence long and how it is generated can
be found in Section 5.6 of the ITU-T O.150 (05/96) standard.
The only differences are that the starting value must be a specific
value instead of all 1s (see Tab le 1 1 for the initial values) and
that the AD9639 inverts the bit stream with relation to the ITU-T
standard.

TEMPOUT Pin

The TEMPOUT pin can be used as a coarse temperature sensor
to monitor the internal die temperature of the device. This pin
typically has a 737 mV output with a clock rate of 210 MSPS
and a negative going temperature coefficient of −1.12 mV/°C.

RBIAS Pin

To set the internal core bias current of the ADC, place a resistor
(nominally equal to 10.0 kΩ) between ground and the RBIAS pin.
The resistor current is derived on chip and sets the AVDD current
of the ADC to a nominal 610 mA at 210 MSPS. Therefore, it is
imperative that a 1% or less tolerance on this resistor be used to
achieve consistent performance.

VCM x Pins

The common-mode output pins can be enabled through the SPI
to provide an external reference bias voltage of 1.4 V for driving
the VIN + x/VIN − x analog inputs. The VCM x pins may be
required when connecting external devices, such as an amplifier
or transformer, to interface to the analog inputs.

RESET Pin

The RESET pin resets the datapath and sets all SPI registers to
their default values. To use this pin, the user must resynchronize
the digital outputs. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

PDWN Pin

When asserted high, the PDWN pin turns off all ADC channels,
including the output drivers. This function can be changed to
a standby function (see Address 0x08 in Tab l e 15 ). This feature
allows the user to place all channels into standby mode. The
output drivers transmit pseudorandom data until the outputs
are disabled using the output mode register (Address 0x14).

When the PDWN pin is asserted high, the AD9639 is placed into
power-down mode, shutting down the reference, reference buffer,
PLL, and biasing networks. In this state, the ADC typically
dissipates 3 mW. If any of the SPI features are changed before

the power-down feature is enabled, the chip continues to function
after PDWN is pulled low without requiring a reset. The AD9639
returns to normal operating mode when the PDWN pin is pulled
low. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

SDO Pin

The SDO pin is for use in applications that require a 4-wire SPI
mode operation. For normal operation, it should be tied low to
AGND through a 10 kΩ resistor. Alternatively, the device pin
can be left open, and the 345 Ω internal pull-down resistor pulls
this pin low. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

SDI/SDIO Pin

The SDI/SDIO pin is for use in applications that require either a
4- or 3-wire SPI mode operation. For normal operation, it should
be tied low to AGND through a 10 kΩ resistor. Alternatively,
the device pin can be left open, and the 30 kΩ internal pull­down resistor pulls this pin low. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

SCLK Pin

For normal operation, the SCLK pin should be tied to AGND
through a 10 kΩ resistor. Alternatively, the device pin can be left
open, and the 30 kΩ internal pull-down resistor pulls this pin
low. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

CSB Pin

For normal operation, the CSB pin should be tied high to AVDD
through a 10 kΩ resistor. Alternatively, the device pin can be left
open, and the 26 kΩ internal pull-up resistor pulls this pin high.
Tying the CSB pin to AVDD causes all information on the SCLK
and SDI/SDIO pins to be ignored. Tying the CSB pin low causes
all information on the SDO and SDI/SDIO pins to be written to
the device. This feature allows the user to reduce the number of
traces to the device if necessary. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

PGMx Pins

All PGMx pins are automatically initialized as synchronization
pins by default. These pins are used to lock the FPGA timing and
data capture during initial startup. These pins are respective to
each channel (PGM3 = Channel A, PGM2 = Channel B, and so
on). The sync (PGMx) pin should be pulled high until this pin
receives a low signal input from the receiver, during which time
the ADC outputs K28.5 comma symbols to indicate the frame
boundary. When the receiver finds the frame boundary, the
sync identification is deasserted low and the ADC outputs the
valid data on the next packet boundary.

When steady state operation for the device is achieved, these pins
can be assigned as a standby option using the PGM mode register
(Address 0x53 in Tab le 1 5 ). All other PGMx pins become global
synchronization pins. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant.

AD9639

SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)

The AD9639 serial port interface allows the user to configure the
converter for specific functions or operations through a structured
register space provided in the ADC. The SPI can provide the
user with additional 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, as
documented in the Memory Map section. Detailed operational
information can be found in the Analog Devices, Inc., AN-877
Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

Four pins define the SPI: SCLK, SDI/SDIO, SDO, and CSB (see
Tabl e 13 ). The SCLK pin is used to synchronize the read and
write data presented to the ADC. The SDI/SDIO pin is a dual­purpose pin that allows data to be sent to and read from the
internal ADC memory map registers. The SDO pin is used in
4-wire mode to read back data from the part. The CSB pin is an
active low control that enables or disables the read and write cycles.

When set, the SDO pin becomes active. When cleared,
the SDO pin remains in three-state and all read data
is routed to the SDI/SDIO pin.

Chip select bar (active low). This control gates the
read and write cycles.

The falling edge of CSB in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK determines the start of the framing sequence. During the
instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted, followed
by one or more data bytes, which is determined by Bit Field W0
and Bit Field W1. An example of the serial timing and its defini­tions can be found in Figure 63 and Tab l e 1 4 .

During normal operation, CSB is used to signal to the device
that SPI commands are to be received and processed. When
CSB is brought low, the device processes SCLK and SDI/SDIO
to execute instructions. Normally, CSB remains low until the
communication cycle is complete. However, if connected to a
slow device, CSB can be brought high between bytes, allowing
older microcontrollers enough time to transfer data into shift
registers. CSB can be stalled when transferring one, two, or three
bytes of data. When W0 and W1 are set to 11, the device enters
streaming mode and continues to process data, either reading
or writing, until CSB is taken high to end the communication
cycle. This allows complete memory transfers without requiring

additional instructions. Regardless of the mode, if CSB is taken
high in the middle of a byte transfer, the SPI state machine is
reset and the device waits for a new instruction.

In addition to the operation modes, the SPI port configuration
influences how the AD9639 operates. For applications that do
not require a control port, the CSB line can be tied high. This
places the SDI/SDIO pin into its secondary mode, as defined in
the SDI/SDIO Pin section. CSB can also be tied low to enable
2-wire mode. When CSB is tied low, SCLK and SDI/SDIO are
the only pins required for communication. Although the device
is synchronized during power-up, the user should ensure that
the serial port remains synchronized with the CSB line when
using this mode. When operating in 2-wire mode, it is recom­mended that a 1-, 2-, or 3-byte transfer be used exclusively.
Without an active CSB line, streaming mode can be entered but
not exited.

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 to both program the chip and read the
contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the SDI/SDIO pin to
change from an input to an output at the appropriate point in
the serial frame.

Data can be sent in MSB first or LSB first mode. MSB first mode
is the default at power-up and can be changed by adjusting the
configuration register (Address 0x00). For more information
about this and other features, see the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

HARDWARE INTERFACE

The pins described in Ta b l e 13 constitute the physical interface
between the user’s programming device and the serial port of
the AD9639. The SCLK and CSB pins function as inputs when
using the SPI. The SDI/SDIO pin is bidirectional, functioning as
an input during write phases and as an output during readback.

If multiple SDI/SDIO pins share a common connection, ensure
that proper V
AD9639, Figure 62 shows the number of SDI/SDIO pins that
can be connected together and the resulting V
interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either serial
PROMs or PIC microcontrollers, providing the user with an
alternative method, other than a full SPI controller, to program
the ADC (see the AN-812 Application Note).

For users who wish to operate the ADC without using the
SPI, remove any connections from the CSB, SCLK, SDO, and
SDI/SDIO pins. By disconnecting these pins from the control bus,
the ADC can function in its most basic operation. Each of these
pins has an internal termination that floats to its respective level.

MEMORY MAP

READING THE MEMORY MAP TABLE

Each row in the memory map register table (Ta b le 1 5 ) has eight
bit locations. The memory map is divided into three sections: the
chip configuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02),
the device index and transfer registers (Address 0x05 and
Address 0xFF), and the ADC function registers (Address 0x08
to Address 0x53).

The leftmost column of the memory map indicates the register
address; the default value is shown in the second rightmost
column. The Bit 7 column is the start of the default hexadecimal
value given. For example, Address 0x09, the clock register, has a
default value of 0x01, meaning that Bit 7 = 0, Bit 6 = 0, Bit 5 = 0,
Bit 4 = 0, Bit 3 = 0, Bit 2 = 0, Bit 1 = 0, and Bit 0 = 1, or 0000 0001
in binary. This setting is the default for the duty cycle stabilizer
in the on condition. By writing a 0 to Bit 0 of this address, fol­lowed by 0x01 in the device update register (Address 0xFF[0],
the transfer bit), the duty cycle stabilizer is turned off. It is
important to follow each write sequence with a transfer bit to
update the SPI registers. For more information about this and
other functions, consult the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

RESERVED LOCATIONS

Undefined memory locations should not be written to except
when writing the default values suggested in this data sheet.
Blank cells in Ta bl e 15 should be considered reserved bits and
have a 0 written into their registers during power-up.

DEFAULT VALUES

When the AD9639 comes out of a reset, critical registers are
preloaded with default values. These values are indicated in
Tabl e 15 .

LOGIC LEVELS

In Ta b le 1 5 , “bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1”
or “writing Logic 1 for the bit.” Similarly, “bit is cleared” is synon­ymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or “writing Logic 0 for the bit.”

AD9639

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

POWER AND GROUND RECOMMENDATIONS

When connecting power to the AD9639, it is recommended
that two separate 1.8 V supplies be used: one for analog (AVDD)
and one for digital (DRVDD). If only one supply is available, it
should be routed to the AVDD pin first and then tapped off and
isolated with a ferrite bead or a filter choke preceded by decou­pling capacitors for the DRVDD pin. Several different decoupling
capacitors can be used to cover both high and low frequencies.
Locate these capacitors close to the point of entry at the PCB
level and close to the parts, with minimal trace lengths.

A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the
AD9639. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
analog, digital, and clock sections of the PCB, optimum perfor­mance can easily be achieved.

EXPOSED PADDLE THERMAL HEAT SLUG RECOMMENDATIONS

It is required that the exposed paddle on the underside of the
ADC be connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the best
electrical and thermal performance of the AD9639. An exposed
continuous copper plane on the PCB should mate to the AD9639
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 solder-filled or plugged with nonconductive epoxy.

To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and
PCB, partition the continuous copper plane into several uniform
sections by overlaying a silkscreen on the PCB. This provides
several tie points between the ADC and PCB during the reflow
process, whereas using one continuous plane with no partitions
guarantees only one tie point. See Figure 64 for a PCB layout
example. For detailed information on packaging and the 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.
