PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. An on-chip PLL allows users to provide a single ADC
sampling clock; the PLL multiplies the ADC sampling
clock to produce the corresponding JESD204A data rate
clock.
2. The configurable JESD204A output block supports up to
1.6 Gbps per channel data rate when using a dedicated
data link per ADC or 3.2 Gbps data rate when using a
single shared data link for both ADCs.
3. Proprietary differential input that maintains excellent SNR
performance for input frequencies up to 250 MHz.
4. Operation from a single 1.8 V power supply.
5. Standard serial port interface (SPI) that supports various
product features and functions, such as data formatting
(offset binary, twos complement, or gray coding),
controlling the clock DCS, power-down, test modes,
voltage reference mode, and serial output configuration.

AD9644
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9644 is a dual, 14-bit, analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
with a high speed serial output interface and sampling speeds
of either 80 MSPS or 155 MSPS.
The AD9644 is designed to support communications applications where high performance, combined with low cost, small
size, and versatility, is desired. The JESD204A high speed serial
interface reduces board routing requirements and lowers pin count
requirements for the receiving device.
The dual ADC core features a multistage, differential pipelined
architecture with integrated output error correction logic. Each
ADC features wide bandwidth differential sample-and-hold
analog input amplifiers that support a variety of user-selectable
input ranges. An integrated voltage reference eases design considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer is provided to compensate for
variations in the ADC clock duty cycle, allowing the converters
to maintain excellent performance.
By default the ADC output data is routed directly to the two
external JESD204A serial output ports. These outputs are at CML
voltage levels. Two modes are supported such that output coded
data is either sent through one data link or two. (L = 1; F = 4 or
L = 2; F = 2). Independent synchronization inputs (DSYNC) are
provided for each channel.
Flexible power-down options allow significant power savings,
when desired.
Programming for setup and control is accomplished using a 3-wire
SPI-compatible serial interface.
The AD9644 is available in a 48-lead LFCSP and is specified over
the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9644 dual-core analog-to-digital converter (ADC) can
be used for diversity reception of signals, in which 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
S
from dc to 250 MHz, using appropriate low-pass or band-pass
filtering at the ADC inputs with little loss in ADC performance.
In nondiversity applications, the AD9644 can be used as a baseband or direct downconversion receiver, in which 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 devices.
Programming and control of the AD9644 are accomplished
using a 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface.
ADC ARCHITECTURE
The AD9644 architecture consists of a dual front-end sampleand-hold circuit, followed by a pipelined, switched-capacitor
ADC. The quantized outputs from each stage are combined into
a final 14-bit result in the digital correction logic. The pipelined
architecture permits the first stage to operate on a new input
sample and the remaining stages to operate on the 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 digitalto-analog converter (DAC) and an interstage residue amplifier
(MDAC). The MDAC 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 of each channel contains a differential sampling
circuit that can be ac- or dc-coupled in differential or singleended modes. The output staging block aligns the data, corrects
errors, and passes the data to the output buffers. The output buffers
are powered from a separate 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 AD9644 is a differential switchedcapacitor circuit that has been designed for optimum performance
while processing a differential input signal.
The clock signal alternatively switches the input between sample
mode and hold mode (see Figure 48). When the input is switched
into sample mode, the signal source must be capable of charging
the sample capacitors and settling within ½ of a clock cycle.
A small resistor in series with each input can help reduce the
peak transient current required from the output stage of the
driving source. A shunt capacitor can be placed across the
inputs to provide dynamic charging currents. This passive
network creates a low-pass filter at the ADC input; therefore,
the precise values are dependent on the application.
In intermediate frequency (IF) undersampling applications, any
shunt capacitors or series resistors should be reduced since the
input sample capacitor is unbuffered. In combination with the
driving source impedance, the shunt capacitors limit the input
bandwidth. Refer to the AN-742 Application Note, Frequency Domain Response of Switched-Capacitor ADCs; the AN-827
Application Note, A Resonant Approach to Interfacing Amplifiers to Switched-Capacitor ADCs; and the Analog Dialog article,
“Transformer-Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters,”

For best dynamic performance, the source impedances driving
VIN+ and VIN− should be matched, and the inputs should be
differentially balanced.
Input Common Mode
The analog inputs of the AD9644 are not internally dc biased.
In ac-coupled applications, the user must provide this bias
externally. Setting the device so that VCM = 0.5 × AVDD (or
0.9 V) is recommended for optimum performance. An onboard common-mode voltage reference is included in the
design and is available from the VCMA and VCMB pins. Using
the VCMA and VCMB outputs to set the input common mode
is recommended. Optimum performance is achieved when the
common-mode voltage of the analog input is set by the VCMA
and VCMB pin voltages (typically 0.5 × AVDD). The VCMA
and VCMB pins must be decoupled to ground by a 0.1 µF
capacitor. This decoupling capacitor should be placed close
to the pin to minimize the series resistance and inductance
between the part and this capacitor.

Differential Input Configurations
Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9644 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 AD9644 (see Figure 49), and the
driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to provide
band limiting of the input signal.

Figure 49. Differential Input Configuration Using the ADA4938-2
For baseband applications in which SNR is a key parameter,
differential transformer coupling is the recommended input
configuration. An example is shown in Figure 50. To bias the
analog input, the VCM voltage can be connected to the center
tap of the secondary winding of the transformer.
The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
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 AD9644. For applications in
which SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun coupling
is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 51). In this
configuration, the input is ac-coupled and the VCM is provided
to each input through a 33 Ω resistor. These resistors compensate
for losses in the input baluns to provide a 50 Ω impedance to
the driver.
In the double balun and transformer configurations, the value of
the input capacitors and resistors is dependent on the input frequency and source impedance. Based on these parameters the
value of the input resistors and capacitors may need to be
adjusted or some components may need to be removed. Tabl e 9
displays recommended values to set the RC network for different
input frequency ranges. However, these values are dependent on
the input signal and bandwidth and should be used only as a
starting guide. Note that the values given in Tab l e 9 are for each
R1, R2, C2, and R3 component shown in Figure 50 and Figure 51.

An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at frequencies
in the second Nyquist zone is to use the AD8376 variable gain
amplifier. An example drive circuit including a band-pass filter

information.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE
A stable and accurate voltage reference is built into the AD9644.
The input full scale range can be adjusted through the SPI port by
adjusting Bit 0 through Bit 4 of Register 0x18. These bits can be
used to change the full scale between 1.383 V p-p and 2.087 V p-p
in 0.022 V steps, as shown in Tab l e 1 7 .
CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
For optimum performance, the AD9644 sample clock inputs,
CLK+ and CLK−, should be clocked with a differential signal.
The signal is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins by
means of a transformer or a passive component configuration.
These pins are biased internally (see Figure 53) and require no
external bias. If the inputs are floated, the CLK− pin is pulled low
to prevent inadvertent clocking.

secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9644 to

This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of the clock
from feeding through to other portions of the AD9644 while
preserving the fast rise and fall times of the signal that are critical
to a low jitter performance.

Clock Input Options
The AD9644 has a very flexible clock input structure. Clock input
can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL , or s i n e w ave sig n a l . R egard less of
the type of signal being used, clock source jitter is of the most
concern, as described in the Jitter Considerations section. The
minimum conversion rate of the AD9644 is 40 MSPS. At clock
rates below 40 MSPS, dynamic performance of the AD9644 can
degrade.
Figure 54 and Figure 55 show two preferred methods for clocking
the AD9644 (at clock rates up to 640 MHz). A low jitter clock
source is converted from a single-ended signal to a differential
signal using either an RF balun or an RF transformer.
The RF balun configuration is recommended for clock frequencies
between 125 MHz and 640 MHz, and the RF transformer is recommended for clock frequencies from 40 MHz to 200 MHz. The

Input Clock Divider
The AD9644 contains an input clock divider with the ability to
divide the input clock by integer values between 1 and 8. For
divide ratios other than 1 the duty cycle stabilizer is automatically
enabled.
The AD9644 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. The AD9644 requires a tight
tolerance on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic
performance characteristics.
The AD9644 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 AD9644. Noise and distortion performance are
nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles with the DCS enabled.
09180-051
09180-052
Jitter in the rising edge of the input is still of paramount concern
and is not easily reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. 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. During the time period that the loop is not locked,
the DCS loop is bypassed, and internal device timing is dependent
on the duty cycle of the input clock signal. In such applications, it
may be appropriate to disable the duty cycle stabilizer. In all other
applications, enabling the DCS circuit is recommended to
maximize ac performance.
Jitter Considerations
High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality
of the clock input. For inputs near full scale, the degradation in
SNR from the low frequency SNR (SNR

In the equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the clock input
jitter specification. IF undersampling applications are particularly
sensitive to jitter, as illustrated in Figure 59. The measured curve in
Figure 59 was taken using an ADC clock source with approximately 65 fs of jitter, which combines with the 125 fs of jitter
inherent in the AD9644 to produce the result shown.

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases in
which aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9644.
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 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.

Note (visit www.analog.com) for more information about jitter
performance as it relates to ADCs.

AD9644
CHANNEL/CHIP SYNCHRONIZATION
The AD9644 has a SYNC input that offers the user flexible
synchronization options for synchronizing the clock divider.
The clock divider sync feature is useful for guaranteeing synchronized 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. The SYNC input should be driven using
a single-ended CMOS-type signal.
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
As shown in Figure 60 and Figure 61 the power dissipated by
the AD9644 varies with its sample rate (AD9644-80 shown).
The data in Figure 60 and Figure 61 was taken in JESD204A
serial output mode, using the same operating conditions as those
used for the Typical Performance Characteristics.

By asserting PDWN (either through the SPI port or by asserting
the PDWN pin high), the AD9644 is placed in power-down mode.
In this state, the ADC typically dissipates 15 mW. During powerdown, the output drivers are placed in a high impedance state.
Asserting the PDWN pin low returns the AD9644 to its normal
operating mode.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,
clock, and JESD204A outputs . Internal capacitors are discharged
when entering power-down mode and then must be recharged
when returning to normal operation.
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 and
the JESD204A outputs running when faster wake-up times are
required.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
JESD204A Transmit Top Level Description
The AD9644 digital output complies with the JEDEC Standard
No. 204A (JESD204A), which describes a serial interface for
data converters. JESD204A uses 8B/10B encoding as well as
optional scrambling. K28.5 and K28.7 comma symbols are used
for frame synchronization and the K28.3 control symbol is used
for lane synchronization. The receiver is required to lock onto
the serial data stream and recover the clock with the use of a
PLL. For details on the output interface, users are encouraged to
refer to the JESD204A standard.
The JESD204A transmit block is used to multiplex data from
the two analog-to-digital converters onto two independent
JESD204A Links. Each JESD204A Link is considered a separate
instance of the JESD204A specification, has an independent
DSYNC signal, and contains one or more lanes. Note that the
JESD204 specification only allows one lane per link, while the
JESD204A specification adds multilane support through an
alignment procedure.
Each JESD204A Link is described according to the following
nomenclature:
• S = samples transmitted/single converter/frame cycle
• M = number of converters/converter device (link)
• L = number of lanes/converter device (link)
• N = converter resolution
• N’ = total number of bits per sample
• CF = number of control words/frame clock cycle/converter
device (link)
• CS = number of control bits/conversion sample
• K = number of frames per multiframe
• HD = high density mode
• F = octets/frame
• C = control bit (overrange, overflow, underflow)
• T = tail bit
• SCR = scrambler enable/disable
• FCHK = checksum
Page 25
AD9644
C

A
Figure 62 shows a simplified block diagram of the AD9644
JESD204A links. The two links each have a primary and a
secondary converter input and lane output. By default, the
primary Input 0 of Link A is ADC Converter A and its primary
lane Output 0 is sent on output Lane A. The primary Input 0 of
Link B is ADC Converter B and its primary lane Output 0 is
sent on output Lane B. Muxes throughout the design are used to
enable secondary inputs/outputs and swap lane outputs for other
configurations. The JESD204A block for AD9644 is designed to
support the configurations described in Ta b le 1 0 via a quick
configuration register at Address 0x5E accessible via the SPI bus.
In addition to the default mode, the user can program the AD9644
to output both ADC channels on a single lane (F = 4). This mode
allows use of a single high speed data lane which simplifies board
layout and connector requirements. In Figure 64 the ADC A
output is represented by Word 0 and the ADC B output by Word 1.
The third output mode utilizes a single link to support both
channels. In single link mode, the DSYNCA pin is used to support
both outputs. This mode is useful for optimal alignment between
the output channels.
The 8B/10B encoding works by taking eight bits of data (an octet)
and encoding them into a 10-bit symbol. By default in the
AD9644, the 14-bit converter word is broken into two octets.
Bit 13 through Bit 6 are in the first octet. The second octet
contains Bit 5 through Bit 0 and two 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 JESD204A link control
Register 1, Address 0x60, Bit 6.
The two resulting octets are optionally scrambled and encoded
into their corresponding 10-bit code. The scrambling function
is controlled by the JESD204A scrambling and lane configuration
register, Address 0x06E, Bit 7. Figure 63 shows how the 14-bit
data is taken from the ADC, the tail bits are added, the two octets
are scrambled, and how the octets are encoded into two 10-bit
symbols. Figure 63 illustrates the default 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. Figure 65 shows the corresponding
receiver data path.
Refer to JEDEC Standard No. 204A-April 2008, Section 5.1, for
complete transport layer and data format details and Section 5.2
for a complete explanation of scrambling and descrambling.

Initial Frame Synchronization
The serial interface must synchronize to the frame boundaries
before data can be properly decoded. The JESD204A standard
has a synchronization routine to identify the frame boundary.
When the DSYNC pin is taken low for at least two clock cycles,
the AD9644 enters the code group synchronization mode. The
AD9644 transmits the K28.5 comma symbol until the receiver
achieves synchronization. The receiver should then deassert the
sync signal (take DSYNC high) and the AD9644 begins the
initial lane alignment sequence (when enabled through Bits[3:2]
of Address 0x60) and subsequently begins transmitting sample
data. The first non-K28.5 symbol corresponds to the first octet
in a frame.

The DSYNC input can be driven either from a differential

The DSYNC input default to LVDS mode but can be set to
CMOS mode by setting Bit 4 in SPI Address 0x61. If it is driven
differentially from an LVDS source, then an external 100 Ω
termination resistor should be provided. If the DSYNC input is
driven single-ended then the CMOS signal should be connected
to the DSYNC+ signal and the DSYNC− signal should be left
disconnected.

Frame and Lane Alignment Monitoring and Correction
Frame alignment monitoring and correction is part of the
JESD204A specification. The 14-bit word requires two octets to
transmit all the data. The two octets (MSB and LSB), where
F = 2, make up a frame. During normal operating conditions
frame alignment is monitored via alignment characters, which
are inserted under certain conditions at the end of a frame.
Tabl e 1 1 summarizes the conditions for character insertion
along with the expected characters under the various operation
modes. If lane synchronization is enabled, the replacement
character value depends on whether the octet is at the end of a
frame or at the end of a multiframe.
Based on the operating mode, the receiver can ensure that it is
common mode of the digital output automatically biases itself
to half the supply of the receiver (that is, the common-mode
voltage is 0.9 V for a receiver supply of 1.8 V) if dc-coupled
connecting is used (see Figure 67). 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 six inches and that the differential output traces be
close together and at equal lengths.
still synchronized to the frame boundary by correctly receiving
the replacement characters.
Digital Outputs and Timing
The AD9644 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 (see Figure 66). Alternatively, single-ended
50 Ω termina-tion can be used. When single-ended termination
DOUT+x
is used, the termination voltage should be DRVDD/2; otherwise,
ac coupling capacitors can be used to terminate to any single-
DOUT–x
ended voltage.
The AD9644 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

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 7). 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 twos complement by default.
Tabl e 1 2 provides an example of this output coding format.
To change the output data format to offset binary or gray code,
see the Memory Map section (Address 0x14 in Tab l e 1 7 ).
The lowest typical clock rate is 40 MSPS. For clock rates slower
than 60 MSPS, the user should set Bit 3 to 0 in the serial control
register (Address 0x21 in Tabl e 1 7 ). This option sets the PLL
loop bandwidth to use clock rates between 40 MSPS and
60 MSPS.
Setting Bit 2 in the output mode register (Address 0x14) allows
the user to invert the digital samples from their nominal state.
As shown in Figure 64, the MSB is transmitted first in the data
output serial stream.

AD9644
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) AND OUTPUT TEST
The AD9644 includes built-in test features designed to enable
verification of the integrity of each channel as well as facilitate
board level debugging. A BIST (built-in self-test) feature is included
that verifies the integrity of the digital datapath of the AD9644.
Various output test options are also provided to place predictable
values on the outputs of the AD9644.
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST)
The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected
AD9644 signal path. When enabled, the test runs from an internal
pseudorandom noise (PN) source through the digital datapath
starting at the ADC block output. The BIST sequence runs for
512 cycles and stops. The BIST signature value for Channel A
and/or Channel B is placed in Register 0x24 and Register 0x25.
The outputs are not disconnected during this test, so the PN
sequence can be observed as it runs. The PN sequence can be
continued from its last value or reset from the beginning, based
on the value programmed in Register 0x0E, Bit 2. The BIST
signature result varies based on the channel configuration.
OUTPUT TEST MODES
Digital Test patterns can be inserted at various points along the
signal path within the AD9644 as shown in Figure 70. The
ability to inject these signals at several locations facilitates
debugging of the JESD204A serial communication link.
The Register 0x0D allows test signals generated at the output of
the ADC core to be fed directly into the input of the serial Link.
The output test options available from Register 0x0D are shown
in Tab l e 1 7 . 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 seed value for the PN sequence tests can be
forced if the PN reset bits are used to hold the generator in reset
mode 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.
There are nine digital output test pattern options available that
can be initiated through the SPI (see Tabl e 1 4 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 ever y 2
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 Table 13 for the initial values).
The PN sequence long pattern produces a pseudorandom bit
sequence that repeats itself ever y 2
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 Table 13 for the initial values) and
that the AD9644 inverts the bit stream with relation to the ITU-T
standard.

The Register 0x62 allows patterns similar to those described in
Tabl e 1 4 to be input at different points along the data path. This
allows the user to provide predictable output data on the serial
link without it having been manipulated by the internal
formatting logic. Refer to Ta ble 1 7 for additional information
on the test modes available in Register 0x62.

SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9644 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 pin, the SDIO
pin, and the CSB pin (see Tabl e 1 5 ). The SCLK (a serial clock) is
used to synchronize the read and write data presented from and
to the ADC. The SDIO (serial data input/output) is a dualpurpose 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.
Table 15. Serial Port Interface Pins
Pin Function

CSB
Serial Clock. The serial shift clock input is used to
synchronize serial interface reads and writes.
Serial Data Input/Output. A dual-purpose pin that
typically 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 71
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.
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.

HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Ta b l e 15 comprise the physical interface
between the user programming device and the serial port of the
AD9644. 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 AD9644 to prevent these signals from transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.
SPI ACCESSIBLE FEATURES
Tabl e 1 6 provides a brief description of the general features that
are accessible via the SPI. These features are described in detail
in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. The AD9644 part-specific features are described in detail in
the Memory Map Register Descriptions section.

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 four sections: the chip
configuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02); the
channel index and transfer registers (Address 0x05 and
Address 0xFF); the ADC functions registers, including setup,
control, and test (Address 0x08 to Address 0x3A); and the
JESD204A configuration registers (Address 0x5E to Address 0x79).
The memory map register table (see Tab l e 1 7 ) 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 0x18, the input
span select register, has a hexadecimal default value of 0x00. This
means that Bit 0 through Bit 4 = 0, and the remaining bits are 0s.
This setting is the default reference selection setting. The default
value uses a 1.75 V p-p reference. For more information on this
function and others, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This application note details the
functions con-trolled by Register 0x00 to Register 0xFF.
Open Locations
All address and bit locations that are not included in Tab l e 1 7
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 0x18). If the entire address location
is open (for example, Address 0x13), this address location should
not be written.
Default Values
After the AD9644 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 7 .
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.”
Transfer Register Map
Address 0x08 through Address 0x79 are shadowed. Writes to
these addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer
command is issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the
transfer bit. This allows these registers to be updated internally
and simultaneously when the transfer bit is set. The internal
update takes place when the transfer bit is set, and the bit
autoclears.
Channel-Specific Registers
Some channel setup functions, such as the channel output
mode, can be programmed differently for each ADC or link
channel. In these cases, channel address locations are internally
duplicated for each channel. These registers and bits are
designated in Table 1 7 as local. These local registers and bits can
be accessed by setting the appropriate Channel A/Link A or
Channel B/Link B bits in Register 0x05.
If both bits are set in register 0x05, the subsequent write affects
the registers of both channels/links. In a SPI read cycle, only
Channel A/Link A or Channel B/Link 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/Link A. Registers
and bits designated as global in Table 17 affect the entire part or the
channel features for which independent settings are not allowed
between channels. The settings in Register 0x05 do not affect
the global registers and bits.

Sync Control (Register 0x3A)
Bits[7:3]—Open
Bit 2—Clock Divider Next Sync Only
If the master sync buffer enable bit (Address 0x3A, Bit 0) and
the clock divider sync enable bit (Address 0x3A, Bit 1) are 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 (Address
0x3A, Bit 1) 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 and Bit 0 is high. This is continuous
sync mode.
Bit 0—Master Sync Buffer Enable
Bit 0 must be high to enable any of the sync functions. If the
sync capability is not used this bit should remain low to
conserve power.
JESD204A Quick Configure (Register 0x5E)
Bits[7:3]—Reserved
Bits[2:0]—Register Quick Configuration
Writes to Bits[2:0] of this register configure the part for the
most popular modes of operation for the JESD204A link. The
intent of this register is to simplify the part setup for typical
serial link operation modes. Writing values other than 0x0 to
this register causes registers throughout the JESD204A memory
map to be updated. Once these registers have been written the
affected JESD204A configuration register reads back with their
new values and can be updated. These bits are self clearing and
always read back as 0b000.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DESIGN GUIDELINES
Before starting design and layout of the AD9644 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 AD9644, 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
AD9644. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance
is easily achieved.
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
AD9644 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.
VCMA and VCMB
The VCMA and VCMB pins should be decoupled to ground
with a 0.1 F capacitor, as shown in Figure 50.
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
AD9644 to keep these signals from transitioning at the converter
inputs during critical sampling periods.
