PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD9782 is a 12-bit, high speed, CMOS DAC with 2×/4×/8×
interpolation and signal processing features tuned for
communications applications. It offers state of the art distortion
and noise performance. The AD9782 was developed to meet the
demanding performance requirements of multicarrier and third
generation base stations. The selectable interpolation filters
simplify interfacing to a variety of input data rates while also
taking advantage of oversampling performance gains. The
modulation modes allow convenient bandwidth placement and
selectable sideband suppression.
The flexible clock interface accepts a variety of input types such
as 1 V p-p sine wave, CMOS, and LVPECL in single ended or
differential mode. Internal dividers generate the required data
rate interface clocks.
The AD9782 provides a differential current output, supporting
single-ended or differential applications; it provides a nominal
full-scale current from 10 mA to 20 mA. The AD9782 is
manufactured on an advanced low cost 0.25 µm CMOS process.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
Linearity Error (Integral Nonlinearity or INL)
Linearity error is defined as the maximum deviation of the
actual analog output from the ideal output, determined by a
straight line drawn from zero to full scale.
Differential Nonlinearity (or DNL)
DNL is the measure of the variation in analog value, normalized
to full scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input
code.
Monotonicity
A D/A converter is monotonic if the output either increases or
remains constant as the digital input increases.
Offset Error
The deviation of the output current from the ideal of zero is
called offset error. For I
inputs are all 0s. For I
, 0 mA output is expected when the
OUTA
, 0 mA output is expected when all
OUTB
inputs are set to 1s.
Gain Error
The difference between the actual and ideal output span. The
actual span is determined by the output when all inputs are set
to 1s, minus the output when all inputs are set to 0s.
Output Compliance Range
The range of allowable voltage at the output of a current-output
DAC. Operation beyond the maximum compliance limits may
cause either output stage saturation or breakdown, resulting in
nonlinear performance.
Temperature Drift
Temperature drift is specified as the maximum change from the
ambient (+25°C) value to the value at either T
MIN
or T
MAX
. For
offset and gain drift, the drift is reported in ppm of full-scale
range (FSR) per degree C. For reference drift, the drift is
reported in ppm per degree C.
Power Supply Rejection
The maximum change in the full-scale output as the supplies
are varied from minimum to maximum specified voltages.
Glitch Impulse
Asymmetrical switching times in a DAC give rise to undesired
output transients that are quantified by a glitch impulse. It is
specified as the net area of the glitch in pV-s.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
The difference, in dB, between the rms amplitude of the output
signal and the peak spurious signal over the specified
bandwidth.
Total Harmonic Distortion
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic
components to the rms value of the measured fundamental. It is
expressed as a percentage or in decibels (dB).
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
S/N is the ratio of the rms value of the measured output signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the
Nyquist frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The
value for SNR is expressed in decibels.
Interpolation Filter
If the digital inputs to the DAC are sampled at a multiple rate of
(interpolation rate), a digital filter can be constructed
f
DATA
which has a sharp transition band near f
would typically appear around f
(output data rate) can be

greatly suppressed.
Pass-Band
Frequency band in which any input applied therein passes
unattenuated to the DAC output.
Stop-Band Rejection
The amount of attenuation of a frequency outside the passband applied to the DAC, relative to a full-scale signal applied at
the DAC input within the pass-band.
Group Delay
Number of input clocks between an impulse applied at the
device input and peak DAC output current. A half-band FIR
filter has constant group delay over its entire frequency range
Settling Time
The time required for the output to reach and remain within a
specified error band about its final value, measured from the
start of the output transition.

Adjacent Channel Power Ratio (or ACPR)
A ratio in dBc between the measured power within a channel
relative to its adjacent channel.
Complex Modulation
The process of passing the real and imaginary components of a
signal through a complex modulator (transfer function = e
coswt + jsinwt) and realizing real and imaginary components
on the modulator output.

Complex Image Rejection
In a traditional two part upconversion, two images are created
around the second IF frequency. These images are redundant
and have the effect of wasting transmitter power and system
bandwidth. By placing the real part of a second complex
modulator in series with the first complex modulator, either the
upper or lower frequency image near the second IF can be
rejected.

AD9782 SPI
PORT INTERFACE
03150-PrD-002
The AD9782 serial port is a flexible, synchronous serial
communications port allowing easy interface to many industrystandard microcontrollers and microprocessors. The serial I/O
is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats,
including both the Motorola SPI® and Intel® SSR protocols. The
interface allows read/write access to all registers that configure
the AD9782. Single or multiple byte transfers are supported as
well as MSB first or LSB first transfer formats. The AD9782’s
serial interface port can be configured as a single pin I/O
(SDIO) or two unidirectional pins for in/out (SDIO/SDO).
GENERAL OPERATION OF THE SERIAL INTERFACE
There are two phases to a communication cycle with the
AD9782. Phase 1 is the instruction cycle, which is the writing of
an instruction byte into the AD9782, coincident with the first
eight SCLK rising edges. The instruction byte provides the
AD9782 serial port controller with information regarding the
data transfer cycle, which is Phase 2 of the communication
cycle. The Phase 1 instruction byte defines whether the
upcoming data transfer is read or write, the number of bytes in
the data transfer, and the starting register address for the first
byte of the data transfer. The first eight SCLK rising edges of
each communication cycle are used to write the instruction byte
into the AD9782.
A logic high on the CS pin, followed by a logic low, will reset the
SPI port timing to the initial state of the instruction cycle. This
is true regardless of the present state of the internal registers or
the other signal levels present at the inputs to the SPI port. If the
SPI port is in the midst of an instruction cycle or a data transfer
cycle, none of the present data will be written.
The remaining SCLK edges are for Phase 2 of the
communication cycle. Phase 2 is the actual data transfer
between the AD9782 and the system controller. Phase 2 of the
communication cycle is a transfer of 1, 2, 3, or 4 data bytes as
determined by the instruction byte. Normally, using one
multibyte transfer is the preferred method. However, single byte
data transfers are useful to reduce CPU overhead when register
access requires one byte only. Registers change immediately
upon writing to the last bit of each transfer byte.
INSTRUCTION BYTE
The instruction byte contains the following information:
Table 8.
N1 N2 Description
0 0 Transfer 1 Byte
0 1 Transfer 2 Bytes
1 0 Transfer 3 Bytes
1 1 Transfer 4 Bytes
R/W, Bit 7 of the instruction byte, determines whether a read or
a write data transfer will occur after the instruction byte write.
Logic high indicates read operation. Logic 0 indicates a write
operation. N1, N0, Bits 6 and 5 of the instruction byte,
determine the number of bytes to be transferred during the data
transfer cycle. The bit decodes are shown in the following table:
Table 9.
MSB LSB
17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10
R/W N1 N0 A4 A3 A2 A1 A0
A4, A3, A2, A1, A0, Bits 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 of the instruction byte,
determine which register is accessed during the data transfer
portion of the communications cycle. For multibyte transfers,
this address is the starting byte address. The remaining register
addresses are generated by the AD9782.
SERIAL INTERFACE PORT PIN DESCRIPTIONS
SCLK—Serial Clock. The seri al clock pin is used to
synchronize data to and from the AD9782 and to run the
internal state machines. SCLK’s maximum frequency is 15 MHz.
All data input to the AD9782 is registered on the rising edge of
SCLK. All data is driven out of the AD9782 on the falling edge
of SCLK.
CSB—Chip Select. Active low input starts and gates a
communication cycle. It allows more than one device to be used
on the same serial communications lines. The SDO and SDIO
pins will go to a high impedance state when this input is high.
Chip select should stay low during the entire communication
cycle.
SDIO—Serial Data I/O. Data is always written into the
AD9782 on this pin. However, this pin can be used as a
bidirectional data line. The configuration of this pin is
controlled by Bit 7 of register address 00h. The default is
Logic 0, which configures the SDIO pin as unidirectional.
SDO—Serial Data Out. Data is read from this pin for protocols
that use separate lines for transmitting and receiving data. In the
case where the AD9782 operates in a single bidirectional I/O
mode, this pin does not output data and is set to a high
impedance state.
Rev. PrC | Page 17 of 52
Page 18
AD9782 Preliminary Technical Data
MSB/LSB TRANSFERS
The AD9782 serial port can support both most significant bit
(MSB) first or least significant bit (LSB) first data formats. This
functionality is controlled by register address DATADIR
(00h[6]). The default is MSB first. When this bit is set active
high, the AD9782 serial port is in LSB first format. That is, if the
AD9782 is in LSB first mode, the instruction byte must be
written from least significant bit to most significant bit.
Multibyte data transfers in MSB format can be completed by
writing an instruction byte that includes the register address of
the most significant byte. In MSB first mode, the serial port
internal byte address generator decrements for each byte
required of the multibyte communication cycle. Multibyte data
transfers in LSB first format can be completed by writing an
instruction byte that includes the register address of the least
significant byte. In LSB first mode, the serial port internal byte
address generator increments for each byte required of the
multibyte communication cycle.
The AD9782 serial port controller address will increment from
1Fh to 00h for multibyte I/O operations if the MSB first mode is
active. The serial port controller address will decrement from
00h to 1Fh for multibyte I/O operations if the LSB first mode is
active.
NOTES ON SERIAL PORT OPERATION
The AD9782 serial port configuration bits reside in Bits 6 and 7
of register address 00h. It is important to note that the
configuration changes immediately upon writing to the last bit
of the register. For multibyte transfers, writing to this register
may occur during the middle of communication cycle. Care
must be taken to compensate for this new configuration for the
remaining bytes of the current communication cycle.

The same considerations apply to setting the software reset,
SWRST (00h[5]) bit. All other registers are set to their default
values but the software reset doesn’t affect the bits in register
address 00h and 04h.
It is recommended to use only single byte transfers when
changing serial port configurations or initiating a software
reset.

DLL Disabled, Two-Port Data Mode, DATACLK as Output
With the interpolation set to 1×, the DATACLK output is a
delayed and inverted version of DACCLK at the same
frequency. Note that DACCLK refers to the differential clock
inputs applied at Pins 5 and 6. As Figure 37 shows, there is a
constant delay between the rising edge of DACCLK and the
falling edge of DATACLK.
The DCLKPOL bit (Reg 02 Bit 4) allows the data to be latched
into the AD9782 on either the rising or falling edge of
DACCLK. With DCLKPOL = 1, the data is latched in on the
rising edge of Diff Clk, as shown in Figure 37. With DCLKPOL
= 0, as shown in Figure 38, data is latched in on the falling edge
of DACCLK. The setup and hold times are always with respect
to the latched edge of DACCLK.
With the interpolation set to 2×, the DACCLK input runs at
twice the speed of the DATACLK. Data is latched into the
AD9782’s inputs on every other rising edge of DACCLK, as
shown in Figure 40 and Figure 41. With DCLKPOL = 1, as
shown in Figure 40, the latching edge of DACCLK is the rising
edge that occurs just before the falling edge of DATACLK. With
DCLKPOL = 0, as in Figure 41, the latching edge of DACCLK is
the rising edge of DACCLK that occurs just before the rising
edge of DATACLK. The setup and hold time values are identical
to those in Figure 37 and Figure 38.
Note that there is a slight difference in the delay from the rising
edge of DACCLK to the falling edge of DATACLK, and the
delay from the rising edge of DACCLK to the rising edge of
DATACL K . As F i g u r e 39 sh o w s , the DATACLK duty c yc l e i s
slightly less than 50%. This is true in all modes.
With the interpolation set to 4× or 8×, the DACCLK input runs
at 4× or 8× the speed of the DATACLK output. The data is
latched in on a rising edge of DACCLK, similar to the 2×
interpolation mode. However, the latching edge is every fourth
edge in 4× interpolation mode and every eighth edge in the 8×
interpolation mode. Again, similar to operation in the 2×
interpolation mode, with DCLKPOL = 1, the latching edge of
DACCLK is the rising edge that occurs just before the falling
edge of DATACLK. With DCLKPOL = 0, the latching edge of
DACCLK is the rising edge that occurs just before the rising
edge of DATACLK. The setup and hold time values are identical
to those in 1× and 2× interpolation
When designing the digital interface for high speed DACs, care
must be taken to ensure that the DAC input data meets setupand-hold requirements. Often, compensation must be used in
the clock delay path to the digital engine driving the DAC. The
AD9782 has the on chip capability to vary the DACCLK’s
latching edge. With the interpolation function enabled, this
allows the user the choice of multiple edges upon which to latch
the data. For instance, if the AD9782 is using 8× interpolation,
the user may latch from one of eight edges before the rising
edge of DATACLK, or seven edges after this rising edge. The
specific edge upon which data is latched is controlled by SPI
Register 05h, Bits 7:4. Table 26 shows the relationship of the
latching edge of DACCLK and DATACLK with the various
settings of the DATAADJ bits.
Figure 42, Figure 43, and Figure 44 show the alignment for the
latching edge of DACCLK with 4× interpolation and different
settings for DATAADJ. In Figure 42, DATAADJ is set to 0000,
with DCLKPOL set to 0 so that the latching edge of DACCLK is
immediately before the rising edge of DATACLK. The data
transitions shown in Figure 42 are synchronous with the
DACCLK, so that DACCLK and data are constant with respect
to each other. The only visible change when DATAADJ is
altered is that DATACLK moves, indicating the latching edge
has moved as well. Note that when DATAADJ is altered, the
latching edge with respect to DATACLK remains the same, but
the latching edge of DACCLK follows the edge of DATACLK.

Figure 42. DATAADJ = 0000
Figure 43 shows the same conditions, but now DATAADJ is set
to 1111. This moves DATACLK to the left in the plot, indicating
that it occurs one DACCLK cycle before it did in Figure 42. As
explained previously, the latching edge of DACCLK also moves
one cycle back in time.
RISING EDGE OF DATACLK
CONCURRENT WITH
LATCHING EDGE OF DACCLK
Note that the data in Figure 40 and Figure 41 was taken with the
DATAADJ default of 0000. With DCLKPOL = 0, the latching
edge of DACCLK is just previous to the rising edge of
DATACLK; with DCLKPOL = 1, the latching edge of DACCLK
is just previous to the falling edge of DATACLK.
With 8× interpolation, the user has the capability of using one
of 16 edges to latch the data. This is due to the fact that there are
eight DAC clock edges before and after the DATACLK until the
next DATACLK latching edge. With 4× interpolation, there are
only four latching edges of DACCLK available before and after
each DATACLK edge. Therefore, in 4× interpolation, only the
even numbered values for DATAADJ are available, and the
options are changed from +3 cycles to –4 cycles. With 2×
interpolation, there are only two edges available before and after
DATACLK, so the choices for DATAADJ are diminished to +1
cycle to –2 cycles.

Interpolation is the process of increasing the number of points
in a time domain waveform by approximating points between
the input data points; on a uniform time grid, this produces a
higher output data rate. Applied to an interpolation DAC, a
digital interpolation filter is used to approximate the interpolated points, having an output data rate increased by the
interpolation factor. Interpolation filter responses are achieved
by cascading individual digital filter banks, whose filter
coefficients are given in Table 1; filter responses are shown in
Figure 34.
The digital filter’s frequency domain response exhibits
symmetry about half the output data rate and dc. It will cause
images of the input data to be shaped by the interpolation
filter’s frequency response. This has the advantage of causing
input data images, which fall in the stop band of the digital filter
to be rejected by the stop-band attenuation of the interpolation
filter; input data images falling in the interpolation filter’s passband will be passed. In band-limited applications, the images at
the output of the DAC must be limited by an analog reconstruction filter. The complexity of the analog reconstruction filter is
determined by the proximity of the closest image to the
required signal band. Higher interpolation rates yield larger
stop-band regions, suppressing more input images and resulting
in a much relaxed analog reconstruction filter.
A DAC shapes its output with a sinc function, having a null at
the sampling frequency of the DAC. The higher the DAC sampling rate compared to the input signal bandwidth, the less the
DAC sinc function will shape the output. Figure 45 shows the
interpolation filters of the AD9782 under different interpolation
rates, normalized to the input data rate, f
. The higher the
SIN
interpolation rate the more input data images fall in the
interpolation filter stop band and are rejected; the band-width
between passed images is larger with higher interpolation
factors. The sinc function shaping is also reduced with a higher
interpolation factor.

REAL AND COMPLEX SIGNALS
A complex signal contains both magnitude and phase
information. Given two signals at the same frequency, if a point
in time can be taken such that the signal leading in phase is
cosinusoidal and the lagging signal is sinusoidal, then
information pertaining to the magnitude and phase of a
combination of the two signals can be derived; the combination
of the two signals can be considered a complex signal. The
cosine and sine can be represented as a series of exponentials;
recalling that a multiplication by j is a counter clockwise
rotation about the Re/Im plane, the phasor representation of a
complex signal, with frequency f, can be shown Figure 46.

The cosine term represents a signal on the real plane with
mirror symmetry about dc; this is referred to as the real, inphase or I component of a complex signal. The sine term
represents a signal on the imaginary plane with mirror
asymmetry about dc; this term is referred to as the imaginary,
quadrature or Q complex signal component.
The AD9782 has two channels of interpolation filters, allowing
both I and Q components to be shaped by the same filter
transfer function. The interpolation filters’ frequency response
is a real transfer function. Two DACs are required to represent a
complex signal. A single DAC can only synthesize a real signal.
When a DAC synthesizes a real signal, negative frequency
components fold onto the positive frequency axis. If the input to
the DAC is mirror symmetrical about dc, the folded negative
frequency components fold directly onto the positive frequency
components in phase producing constructive signal summation.
If the input to the DAC is not mirror symmetric about dc,
negative frequency components may not be in phase with
positive frequency components and will cause destructive signal
summation. Different applications may or may not benefit from
either type of signal summation.

Either channel of the AD9782’s interpolation filter channels can
be routed to the DAC and modulated. In single channel
operation the input data may be modulated by a real sinusoid;
the input data and the modulating sinusoid will contain both
positive and negative frequency components. A double
sideband output results when modulating two real signals. At
the DAC output the positive and negative frequency
components will add in phase resulting in constructive signal
summation.

As the modulating sinusoidal frequency becomes a larger
fraction of the DAC update rate, f
the more the sinc function
DAC,
of the DAC shapes the modulated signal bandwidth, and the
closer the first image moves. As the AD9782 interpolation
filter’s pass band represents a large portion of the input data’s
Nyquist band, under certain modulation and interpolation
modes it is possible for modulated signal bands to touch or
overlap images if sufficient interpolation is not used.

In dual channel mode, the two channels may be modulated by a
complex signal, with either the real or imaginary modulation
result directed to the DAC. Assume initially that the complex
modulating signal is defined for a positive frequency only; this
causes the output spectrum to be translated in frequency by the
modulation factor only. No additional sidebands are created as a
result of the modulation process, and therefore the bandwidth
to the first image from the baseband bandwidth is the same as
the output of the interpolation filters. Furthermore, pass bands
will not overlap or touch. The sinc shaping at the corners of the
modulated signal band are tabulated. Figure 52 shows the
complex modulations.
The AD9782 has seven power supply domains: two 3.3 V analog
domains (AVDD1 and AVDD2), two 2.5 V analog domains
(ADVDD and ACVDD), one 2.5 V clock domain (CLKVDD),
and two digital domains (DVDD, which runs from 2.5 V, and
DRVDD, which can run from 2.5 V or 3.3 V).

The current needed for the 3.3 V analog supplies, AVDD1 and
AVDD2, is consistent across speed and varying modes of the
AD9782. Nominally, the current for AVDD1 is 29 mA across all
speeds and modes, while the current for AVDD2 is 20 mA.
The current for the 2.5 V analog supplies and the digital
supplies varies depending on speed and mode of operation.
Figure 55, Figure 56, and Figure 57 show this variation. Note
that CLKVDD, ADVDD, and ACVDD vary with clock speed
and interpolation rate, but not with modulation rate.

When complex modulation is performed, the entire spectrum is
translated by the modulation factor. If the resulting modulated
spectrum is not mirror symmetric about dc, when the DAC
synthesizes the modulated signal, negative frequency components will fall on the positive frequency axis and can cause
destructive summation of the signals. For some applications,
this can be seen as distorting the modulated output signal.

By performing a second complex modulation with a modulating signal having a fixed π/2 phase difference, Figure 59 (Y),
relative to the original complex modulation signal, Figure 59
(X), taking the Hilbert transform of the new resulting complex
modulation, and subtracting it from the original complex modulation output all negative frequency components can be folded
in phase to the positive frequency axis before being synthesized
by the DAC. When the DAC synthesizes the modulated output
there are no negative frequency components to fold onto the
positive frequency axis out of phase; consequently no distortion
is produced as a result of the modulation process.

AD9782 Preliminary Technical Data
Figure 60 shows this effect at the DAC output for a mirror
asymmetic signal about dc produced by complex modulation
without a Hilbert transform. The signal bandwidth was narrowed to show the aliased negative frequency interpolation
images.
The transfer function of an ideal Hilbert transform has a +90°
phase shift for negative frequencies, and a –90° phase shift for
positive frequencies. Because of the discontinuities that occur at
0 Hz and at 0.5 × Sample Rate, any real implementation of the
Hilbert Transform trades off bandwidth versus ripple.
In contrast, Figure 61 shows the same waveform with the
Hilbert transform applied. Clearly, the aliased interpolation
images are not present.

If the output of the AD9782 is to be used with a quadrature
modulator, negative frequency images are cancelled without the
need of a Hilbert transform.
HILBERT TRANSFORM IMPLEMENTATION
The Hilbert transform on the AD9782 is implemented as a 19coefficient FIR. The coefficients are given in Table 35
Figure 62 and Figure 63 show the gain of the Hilbert transform
versus frequency. Gain is essentially flat, with a pass-band ripple
of 0.1dB over the frequency range 0.07 × Sample Rate to
0.43 × Sample Rate.
Figure 64 shows the phase response of the Hilbert transform
implemented in the AD9782. The phase response for positive
frequencies begins at –90° at 0 Hz, followed by a linear phase
response (pure time delay) equal to nine filter taps (nine clock
cycles). For negative frequencies, the phase response at 0 Hz is
+90°, again followed by a linear phase delay of nine filter taps.
To compensate for the unwanted 9-cycle delay, an equal delay of
nine taps is used in the AD9782 digital signal path opposite to
the Hilbert transform. This delay block is noted as t on the data
sheet.

The AD9782 can be configured to drive a quadrature modulator, representatively as in Figure 65. Where two AD9782s are
used with one AD9782 producing the real output, the second
AD9782 produces the imaginary output. By configuring the
AD9782 as a complex modulator coupled to a quadrature
modulator, IF image rejection is possible. The quadrature
modulator acts as the real part of a complex modulation producing a double sideband spectrum at the local oscillator (LO)
frequency, with mirror symmetry about dc.
A baseband double sideband signal modulated to IF increases
IF filter complexity and reduces power efficiency. If the baseband signal is complex, a single sideband IF modulation can be
used, relaxing IF filter complexity and increasing power
efficiency.

In applications where two or more AD9782s are used to synthesize several digital data paths, it may be necessary to ensure that
the digital inputs to each device are latched synchronously. In
complex data processing applications, digital modulator phase
alignment may be required between two AD9782s. In order to
allow data synchronization and phase alignment, only one
AD9782 should be configured as a master device, providing a
reference clock for another slave-configured AD9782.
With synchronization enabled, a reference clock signal is
generated on the DATACLK/PLL_LOCK pin of the master. The
DATACLK/PLL_LOCK pins on the slave devices act as inputs
The second master mode, DATACLK master mode, generates a
reference clock that is at the channel data rate. In this mode, the
slave devices align their internal channel data rate clock to the
master. If modulator phase alignment is needed, a concurrent
serial write to all slave devices is necessary. To achieve this, the
CSB pin on all slaves must be connected together and a group
serial write to the MODADJ register bits must be performed;
the modulator coefficient alignment is updated on the next
rising edge of the internal state machine following a successful
serial write, Figure 69. Modulator master mode does not need a
concurrent serial write as slaves lock to the master phase
automatically.
for the reference clock generated by the master. The DATACLK/
PLL_LOCK pin on the master and all slaves must be directly
connected. All master and slave devices must have the same
clock source connected to their respective CLK+/CLK– pins.
When configured as a master, the reference clock generated may
take one of two forms. In modulator master mode, the reference
clock will be a square wave with a period equal to 16 cycles of
the DAC update clock. Internal to the AD9782 is a 16-state
finite state machine, running at the DAC update rate. This state
machine generates all internal and external synchronization
clocks and modulator phasings. The rising edge of the master
In a slave device, the local channel data rate clock and the digital
modulator clock are created from the internal state machine.
The local channel data rate clock is used by the slave to latch
digital input data. At high data rates, the delay inherent in the
signal path from master to slave may cause the slave to lag the
master when acquiring synchronization. To account for this, an
integer number of the DAC update clock cycles may be
programmed into the slave device as an offset. The value in
DATADJ allows the local channel data rate clock in the slave
device to advance by up to eight cycles of the DAC clock or
delayed by up to seven cycles, Figure 70.
reference clock is time aligned to the internal state machine’s
state zero. Slave devices use the master’s reference clock to
synchronize their data latching and align their modulator’s
phase by aligning their local state machine state zero to the
master.
The digital modulator coefficients are updated at the DAC clock
rate and decoded in sequential order from the state machine
according to Figure 71. The MODADJ bits can be used to align
a different coefficient to the finite state machine’s zero state as
shown in Figure 72.

OPERATING THE AD9782 REV E EVALUATION BOARD
This section helps the user get started with the AD9782
evaluation board. Because it is intended to provide starter
information to power up the board and verify correct operation,
a description of some of the more advanced modes of operation
has been omitted. For a description of the various SPI registers
and the effect they have on the operating modes of the AD9782,
see the Mode Control (via SPI Port) section.
POWER SUPPLIES
The AD9782 Rev E Evaluation Board has five power supply
connectors, labeled VDDIN, CVDIN, VDD2IN, VDD3IN, and
AVDIN. The AD9782 itself actually has seven power supply
domains. To reconcile the power supply domains on the chip
with the power supply connectors on the evaluation board, use
Table 38.
Additionally, the DRVDD power supply on the AD9782 is used
to supply power for the digital input bus. DRVDD can be run
from 2.5 V or 3.3 V. On the evaluation board, DRVDD is jumper
selectable by JP1, just to the left of the chip on the evaluation
board. With the jumper set to the 3.3 V position, DRVDD chip
receives its power from VDD3IN. With the jumper set to the
2.5 V position, DRVDD receives its power from AVDIN.
PECL CLOCK DRIVER
The AD9782 system clock is driven from an external source via
connector S1. The AD9782 Evaluation Board includes an
OnSemiconductor MC100EPT22 PECL clock driver. In the
factory, the evaluation board is set to use this PECL driver as a
single-ended-to-differential clock receiver. The PECL driver can
be set to run from 2.5 V from the CVDIN power connector, or
3.3 V from the VDD3IN power connector. This setting is done
via jumper, JP2, situated next to the CVDIN power connector,
and by setting input bias resistors R23 and R4 on the evaluation
board. The factory default is for the PECL driver to be powered
from CVDIN at 2.5 V (R23 = 90.9 Ω, R4 = 115 Ω). To operate
the PECL driver with a 3.3 V supply, R23 must be replaced with
a 115 Ω resistor and R4 must be replaced with a 115 Ω resistor,
as well as changing the position of JP2. The schematic of the
PECL driver section of the evaluation board is shown below in
Figure 73. A low jitter sine wave can be used as the clock source.
Care must be taken to make sure the clock amplitude does not
exceed the power supply rails for the PECL driver.

Preliminary Technical Data AD9782
DATA INPUTS
Digital data inputs to the AD9782 are accessed on the
evaluation board through connectors J1 and J2. These are 40 pin
right angle connectors that are intended to be used with
standard ribbon cable connectors. The input levels should be
either 3.3 V or 2.5 V CMOS, depending on the setting of the
DRVDD jumper JP1. The data format is selectable through
Register 02h, Bit 7 (DATAFMT). With this bit set to a default 0,
the AD9782 assumes that the input data is in twos complement
format. With this bit set to 1, data should be input in offset
binary format.
When the evaluation board is first powered up and the clock
and data are running, it is recommended that the proper
operating current is verified. Depress reset switch SW1 to
ensure that the AD9782 is in the default mode. The default
mode for the AD9782 is for the internal PLL to be disabled, and
the interpolation set to 1×. The modulator is turned off in the
default mode. The nominal operating currents for the
evaluation board in the power-up default mode are shown in
Table 39.
Additionally, the DRVDD power supply on the AD9782 is used
to supply power for the digital input bus. DRVDD can be run
from 2.5 V or 3.3 V. On the evaluation board, DRVDD is jumper
selectable by JP1, just to the left of the chip on the evaluation
board. With the jumper set to the 3.3 V position, DRVDD chip
receives its power from VDD3IN. With the jumper set to the
2.5 V position, DRVDD receives its power from AVDIN.
Table 39. Nominal Operating Currents in Power-Up Default Mode
SW1 is a hard reset switch that sets the AD9782 to its default
state. It should be used every time the AD9782 power supply is
cycled or the clock is interrupted, or if new data is to be written
via the SPI port. For a description of the various SPI registers
and the effect they have on the operating modes of the AD9782,
see the Mode Control (via SPI Port) section. Set the SPI
software to read back data from the AD9782 and verify that
when the software is run, the expected values are read back.
OPERATING WITH PLL DISABLED
The SPI registers referenced in this section are shown in
Table 40.
With the PLL disabled, the evaluation board clock input must
be run at the intended DAC sample rate, up to the specified
limit of 500 MSPS. At the same time, the interpolation rate
should be set so the input data rate does not exceed the 200
MSPS limit. In the default mode with the PLL disabled, the
DATACLK signal from the AD9782 is available at connector S2.
The rate of this clock is the system clock applied at S1, divided
by the interpolation rate. DATACLK can be used to synchronize
the external data into the AD9782.

AD9782 Preliminary Technical Data
OPERATING WITH PLL ENABLED
Note that a specific revision of the AD9782 on the Rev E
Evaluation Board has a nonfunctioning PLL. This revision can
be identified by the xxx.
With the AD9782 PLL enabled, the evaluation board clock input
must be run at the data input rate, up to the specified 200 MSPS
limit. The PLL controls the internal clock multiplication and
drives the interpolation filters and digital modulator. The
internal PLL has a VCO in the control loop that is designed to
operate optimally over the 200 MHz to 500 MHz range. The
VCO speed can be calculated as follows:
VCO Speed = Input Data Rate × PLLMULT[1,0]
The interpolation rate is set by Bits 6 and 7. With the PLL
enabled, the settings for the interpolation rate, the PLL
multiplier, and the PLL divide are interrelated. The interpolation
rate must meet the following criteria:
Therefore, assuming the input data rate is constant and the
VCO is at optimal speed, if the interpolation rate is increased by
a factor of M, the PLLMULT setting must be decreased by the
same factor M.
With the PLL enabled, DATACLK connector S2 indicates the
lock state of the PLL. A Logic 1 from S2 indicates lock; a Logic 0
indicates the PLL is not currently locked.
ANALOG OUTPUT
The analog output of the AD9782 is accessed via connector S3.
Once all settings are selected and current levels, PLL lock state,
and SPI port functionality are verified, the analog signal at S3
can be viewed. For most of the AD9782’s applications, a
spectrum analyzer is the instrument of choice to verify proper
performance. A typical spectral plot is shown in Figure 74, with
the AD9782 synthesizing a two-tone signal in the default mode
with a 200 MSPS sample rate. A single tone CW signal should
provide output power of approximately +0.5 dBm to the
spectrum analyzer.
If the spectrum does not look correct at this point, the data
input may be violating setup and hold times with respect to the
input clock. To correct this, the user should vary the input data
timing. If this is not possible, SPI Register 02h, Bit 4 can be
inverted. This bit controls the clock edge upon which the data is
latched. If these methods do not correct the spectrum, it is
unlikely that the issue is timing related. This note should then
be reread to verify that all instructions have been followed.
