Rainbow Electronics MAX1209 User Manual

General Description
The MAX1209 is a 3.3V, 12-bit, 80Msps analog-to-digital converter (ADC) featuring a fully differential wideband track-and-hold (T/H) input amplifier, driving a low-noise internal quantizer. The analog input stage accepts sin­gle-ended or differential signals. The MAX1209 is opti­mized for low power, small size, and high dynamic performance. Excellent dynamic performance is main­tained from baseband to input frequencies of 175MHz and beyond, making the MAX1209 ideal for intermediate­frequency (IF) sampling applications.
Powered from a single 3.0V to 3.6V supply, the MAX1209 consumes only 366mW while delivering a typical signal-to-noise (SNR) performance of 66.5dB at an input frequency of 175MHz. In addition to low oper­ating power, the MAX1209 features a 3µW power-down mode to conserve power during idle periods.
A flexible reference structure allows the MAX1209 to use the internal 2.048V bandgap reference or accept an externally applied reference. The reference structure allows the full-scale analog input range to be adjusted from ±0.35V to ±1.15V. The MAX1209 provides a com­mon-mode reference to simplify design and reduce exter­nal component count in differential analog input circuits.
The MAX1209 supports both a single-ended and differ­ential input clock drive. Wide variations in the clock duty cycle are compensated with the ADC’s internal duty-cycle equalizer (DCE).
ADC conversion results are available through a 12-bit, parallel, CMOS-compatible output bus. The digital out­put format is pin selectable to be either two’s comple­ment or Gray code. A data-valid indicator eliminates external components that are normally required for reli­able digital interfacing. A separate digital power input accepts a wide 1.7V to 3.6V supply, allowing the MAX1209 to interface with various logic levels.
The MAX1209 is available in a 6mm x 6mm x 0.8mm, 40-pin thin QFN package with exposed paddle (EP), and is specified for the extended industrial (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.
See the Pin-Compatible Versions table for a complete
family of 14-bit and 12-bit high-speed ADCs.

Detailed Description
The MAX1209 uses a 10-stage, fully differential, pipelined architecture (Figure 1) that allows for high-
speed conversion while minimizing power consump­tion. Samples taken at the inputs move progressively through the pipeline stages every half-clock cycle. From input to output, the total clock-cycle latency is 8.5 clock cycles.
Each pipeline converter stage converts its input voltage into a digital output code. At every stage, except the last, the error between the input voltage and the digital output code is multiplied and passed along to the next pipeline stage. Digital error correction compensates for ADC comparator offsets in each pipeline stage and ensures no missing codes. Figure 2 shows the MAX1209 functional diagram.
Input Track-and-Hold (T/H) Circuit
Figure 3 displays a simplified functional diagram of the
input T/H circuit. This input T/H circuit allows for high analog input frequencies of 175MHz and beyond and supports a common-mode input voltage of V
DD
/ 2
±0.5V.
The MAX1209 sampling clock controls the ADC’s switched-capacitor T/H architecture (Figure 3), allowing the analog input signal to be stored as charge on the sampling capacitors. These switches are closed (track) when the sampling clock is high and open (hold) when the sampling clock is low (Figure 4). The analog input signal source must be capable of providing the dynam­ic current necessary to charge and discharge the sam­pling capacitors. To avoid signal degradation, these
capacitors must be charged to one-half LSB accuracy within one-half of a clock cycle.
The analog input of the MAX1209 supports differential or single-ended input drive. For optimum performance with differential inputs, balance the input impedance of INP and INN and set the common-mode voltage to mid­supply (V
DD
/ 2). The MAX1209 provides the optimum
common-mode voltage of V
DD
/ 2 through the COM output when operating in internal reference mode and buffered external reference mode. This COM output voltage can be used to bias the input network as shown in Figures 10, 11, and 12.
Reference Output (REFOUT)
An internal bandgap reference is the basis for all the internal voltages and bias currents used in the MAX1209. The power-down logic input (PD) enables and disables the reference circuit. The reference circuit requires 10ms to power up and settle when power is applied to the MAX1209 or when PD transitions from high to low. REFOUT has approximately 17kto GND when the MAX1209 is in power-down.
The internal bandgap reference and its buffer generate V
REFOUT
to be 2.048V. The reference temperature coeffi-
cient is typically +50ppm/°C. Connect an external 0.1µF bypass capacitor from REFOUT to GND for stability.

Analog Inputs and Reference
Configurations
The MAX1209 full-scale analog input range is adjustable from ±0.35V to ±1.15V with a common­mode input range of V
DD
/ 2 ±0.5V. The MAX1209 pro­vides three modes of reference operation. The voltage at REFIN (V
REFIN
) sets the reference operation mode
(Table 1).
To operate the MAX1209 with the internal reference, connect REFOUT to REFIN either with a direct short or through a resistive divider. In this mode, COM, REFP, and REFN are low-impedance outputs with V

DD
/ 2 - V
REFIN
/ 4. The REFIN input impedance is very
large (>50M). When driving REFIN through a resistive
divider, use resistances 10kto avoid loading REFOUT.
Buffered external reference mode is virtually identical to internal reference mode except that the reference source is derived from an external reference and not the MAX1209 REFOUT. In buffered external reference mode, apply a stable 0.7V to 2.3V source at REFIN. In this mode, COM, REFP, and REFN are low-impedance out­puts with V

To operate the MAX1209 in unbuffered external refer­ence mode, connect REFIN to GND. Connecting REFIN to GND deactivates the on-chip reference buffers for COM, REFP, and REFN. With the respective buffers deactivated, COM, REFP, and REFN become high­impedance inputs and must be driven through sepa­rate, external reference sources. Drive V

All three modes of reference operation require the same bypass capacitor combinations. Bypass COM with a 2.2µF capacitor to GND. Bypass REFP and REFN each with a 0.1µF capacitor to GND. Bypass REFP to REFN with a 1µF capacitor in parallel with a 10µF capacitor. Place the 1µF capacitor as close to
the device as possible on the same side of the PC board. Bypass REFIN and REFOUT to GND with a
0.1µF capacitor.
For detailed circuit suggestions, see Figures 13 and 14.
Clock Input and Clock Control Lines
(CLKP, CLKN, CLKTYP)
The MAX1209 accepts both differential and single­ended clock inputs. For single-ended clock-input oper­ation, connect CLKTYP to GND, CLKN to GND, and drive CLKP with the external single-ended clock signal. For differential clock-input operation, connect CLKTYP to OVDDor VDD, and drive CLKP and CLKN with the external differential clock signal. To reduce clock jitter, the external single-ended clock must have sharp falling edges. Consider the clock input as an analog input and route it away from any other analog inputs and digital signal lines.
CLKP and CLKN are high impedance when the MAX1209 is powered down (Figure 5).
Low clock jitter is required for the specified SNR perfor­mance of the MAX1209. Analog input sampling occurs on the falling edge of the clock signal, requiring this edge to have the lowest possible jitter. Jitter limits the maximum SNR performance of any ADC according to the following relationship:
where fINrepresents the analog input frequency and t
J
is the total system clock jitter. Clock jitter is especially critical for undersampling applications. For example, assuming that clock jitter is the only noise source, to obtain the specified 66.5dB of SNR with an input fre­quency of 175MHz, the system must have less than
0.43ps of clock jitter. In actuality, there are other noise sources such as thermal noise and quantization noise that contribute to the system noise, requiring the clock jitter to be less than 0.24ps to obtain the specified
66.5dB of SNR at 175MHz.
Clock Duty-Cycle Equalizer (DCE)
Enable the MAX1209 clock duty-cycle equalizer by connecting DCE to OVDDor VDD. Disable the clock duty-cycle equalizer by connecting DCE to GND.
The clock duty-cycle equalizer uses a delay-locked loop (DLL) to create internal timing signals that are duty-cycle independent. Due to this DLL, the MAX1209 requires approximately 100 clock cycles to acquire and lock to new clock frequencies.
Disabling the clock duty-cycle equalizer reduces the analog supply current by 1.5mA.
System Timing Requirements
Figure 6 shows the relationship between the clock, ana-
log inputs, DAV indicator, DOR indicator, and the result­ing output data. The analog input is sampled on the falling edge of the clock signal and the resulting data appears at the digital outputs 8.5 clock cycles later.
The DAV indicator is synchronized with the digital out­put and optimized for use in latching data into digital back-end circuitry. Alternatively, digital back-end cir­cuitry can be latched with the rising edge of the con­version clock (CLKP-CLKN).
Data-Valid Output (DAV)
DAV is a single-ended version of the input clock (CLKP). Output data changes on the falling edge of DAV, and DAV rises once output data is valid (Figure 6).

The state of the duty-cycle equalizer input (DCE) changes the waveform at DAV. With the duty-cycle equalizer disabled (DCE = low), the DAV signal is the inverse of the signal at CLKP delayed by 6.8ns. With the duty-cycle equalizer enabled (DCE = high), the DAV sig­nal has a fixed pulse width that is independent of CLKP. In either case, with DCE high or low, output data at D11–D0 and DOR are valid from 7.7ns before the rising edge of DAV to 4.2ns after the rising edge of DAV, and the rising edge of DAV is synchronized to have a 6.4ns (t
DAV
) delay from the falling edge of CLKP.
DAV is high impedance when the MAX1209 is in power-down (PD = high). DAV is capable of sinking and sourcing 600µA and has three times the drive strength of D11–D0 and DOR. DAV is typically used to latch the MAX1209 output data into an external back­end digital circuit.
Keep the capacitive load on DAV as low as possible (<25pF) to avoid large digital currents feeding back into the analog portion of the MAX1209 and degrading its dynamic performance. An external buffer on DAV isolates it from heavy capacitive loads. Refer to the MAX1211 evaluation kit schematic for an example of DAV driving back-end digital circuitry through an exter­nal buffer.
Data Out-of-Range Indicator (DOR)
The DOR digital output indicates when the analog input voltage is out of range. When DOR is high, the analog input is out of range. When DOR is low, the analog input is within range. The valid differential input range is from (V
REFP
- V
REFN
) to (V
REFN
- V
REFP
). Signals out­side this valid differential range cause DOR to assert high as shown in Table 2 and Figure 6.
DOR is synchronized with DAV and transitions along with the output data D11–D0. There is an 8.5 clock­cycle latency in the DOR function as with the output data (Figure 6).
DOR is high impedance when the MAX1209 is in power-down (PD = high). DOR enters a high-imped­ance state within 10ns after the rising edge of PD and becomes active 10ns after PD’s falling edge.
Digital Output Data (D11–D0), Output Format (G/
T
)
The MAX1209 provides a 12-bit, parallel, tri-state out­put bus. D11–D0 and DOR update on the falling edge of DAV and are valid on the rising edge of DAV.
The MAX1209 output data format is either Gray code or two’s complement, depending on the logic input G/T. With G/T high, the output data format is Gray code. With G/T low, the output data format is two’s comple­ment. See Figure 8 for a binary-to-Gray and Gray-to­binary code-conversion example.
The following equations, Table 2, Figure 7, and Figure 8 define the relationship between the digital output and the analog input:

Digital outputs D11–D0 are high impedance when the MAX1209 is in power-down (PD = high). D11–D0 transi­tion high 10ns after the rising edge of PD and become active 10ns after PD’s falling edge.

The addition of external digital buffers on the digital outputs isolates the MAX1209 from heavy capacitive loading. To improve the dynamic performance of the MAX1209, add 220resistors in series with the digital outputs close to the MAX1209. Refer to the MAX1211 evaluation kit schematic for an example of the digital outputs driving a digital buffer through 220series resistors.

Power-Down Input (PD)
The MAX1209 has two power modes that are controlled with the power-down digital input (PD). With PD low, the MAX1209 is in normal operating mode. With PD high, the MAX1209 is in power-down mode.
The power-down mode allows the MAX1209 to efficient­ly use power by transitioning to a low-power state when conversions are not required. Additionally, the MAX1209 parallel output bus is high impedance in power-down mode, allowing other devices on the bus to be accessed.
In power-down mode, all internal circuits are off, the analog supply current reduces to 1µA, and the digital supply current reduces to 0.9µA. The following list shows the state of the analog inputs and digital outputs in power-down mode:
• INP, INN analog inputs are disconnected from the
internal input amplifier (Figure 3).
• REFOUT has approximately 17kto GND.
• REFP, COM, and REFN go high impedance with
respect to V
DD
and GND, but there is an internal 4k
resistor between REFP and COM, as well as an inter­nal 4kresistor between REFN and COM.
• D11–D0, DOR, and DAV go high impedance.
• CLKP and CLKN go high impedance (Figure 5).
The wake-up time from power-down mode is dominat­ed by the time required to charge the capacitors at REFP, REFN, and COM. In internal reference mode and buffered external reference mode, the wake-up time is typically 10ms with the recommended capacitor array (Figure 13). When operating in unbuffered external ref­erence mode, the wake-up time is dependent on the external reference drivers.
Applications Information
Using Transformer Coupling
In general, the MAX1209 provides better SFDR and THD performance with fully differential input signals as opposed to single-ended input drive. In differential input mode, even-order harmonics are lower as both inputs are balanced, and each of the ADC inputs only requires half the signal swing compared to single-ended input mode.
An RF transformer (Figure 10) provides an excellent solution to convert a single-ended input source signal to a fully differential signal, required by the MAX1209 for optimum performance. Connecting the center tap of the transformer to COM provides a V
DD
/ 2 DC level shift to the input. Although a 1:1 transformer is shown, a step-up transformer can be selected to reduce the drive requirements. A reduced signal swing from the input driver, such as an op amp, can also improve the overall distortion. The configuration of Figure 10 is good for frequencies up to Nyquist (f
CLK
/ 2).

The circuit of Figure 11 converts a single-ended input
signal to fully differential just as Figure 10. However,
Figure 11 utilizes an additional transformer to improve
the common-mode rejection, allowing high-frequency signals beyond the Nyquist frequency. The two sets of termination resistors provide an equivalent 75Ω termi- nation to the signal source. The second set of termina­tion resistors connects to COM, providing the correct input common-mode voltage. Two 0resistors in series with the analog inputs allow high IF input frequencies. These 0resistors can be replaced with low-value resistors to limit the input bandwidth.
Single-Ended AC-Coupled Input Signal
Figure 12 shows an AC-coupled, single-ended input
application. The MAX4108 provides high speed, high bandwidth, low noise, and low distortion to maintain the input signal integrity.

Buffered External Reference
Drives Multiple ADCs
The buffered external reference mode allows for more control over the MAX1209 reference voltage and allows multiple converters to use a common reference. The REFIN input impedance is >50MΩ.
Figure 13 uses the MAX6029EUK21 precision 2.048V reference as a common reference for multiple convert­ers. The 2.048V output of the MAX6029 passes through a one-pole, 10Hz lowpass filter to the MAX4230. The MAX4230 buffers the 2.048V reference and provides additional 10Hz lowpass filtering before its output is applied to the REFIN input of the MAX1209.

2.157V and 1.141V reference voltages set the full-scale analog input range to ±1.016V.
A common power source for all active components removes any concern regarding power-supply sequencing when powering up or down.
Grounding, Bypassing, and
Board Layout
The MAX1209 requires high-speed board layout design techniques. Refer to the MAX1211 evaluation kit data sheet for a board layout reference. Locate all bypass capacitors as close to the device as possible, prefer­ably on the same side of the board as the ADC, using surface-mount devices for minimum inductance. Bypass VDDto GND with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 2.2µF ceramic capacitor. Bypass OV
DD
to GND with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a
2.2µF ceramic capacitor.
Multilayer boards with ample ground and power planes produce the highest level of signal integrity. All MAX1209 GNDs and the exposed backside paddle must be connected to the same ground plane. The MAX1209 relies on the exposed backside paddle con­nection for a low-inductance ground connection. Use multiple vias to connect the top-side ground to the bot­tom-side ground. Isolate the ground plane from any noisy digital system ground planes such as a DSP or output buffer ground.
Route high-speed digital signal traces away from the sensitive analog traces. Keep all signal lines short and free of 90° turns.
Ensure that the differential analog input network layout is symmetric and that all parasitics are balanced equal­ly. Refer to the MAX1211 evaluation kit data sheet for an example of symmetric input layout.
Parameter Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Integral nonlinearity is the deviation of the values on an actual transfer function from a straight line. For the MAX1209, this straight line is between the end points of the transfer function, once offset and gain errors have been nullified. INL deviations are measured at every step of the transfer function and the worst-case devia­tion is reported in the Electrical Characteristics table.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between an actual step width and the ideal value of 1 LSB. A DNL error specification of less than 1 LSB guarantees no missing codes and a monotonic transfer function. For the MAX1209, DNL deviations are measured at every step of the transfer function and the worst-case devia­tion is reported in the Electrical Characteristics table.
Offset Error
Offset error is a figure of merit that indicates how well the actual transfer function matches the ideal transfer function at a single point. Ideally the midscale MAX1209 transition occurs at 0.5 LSB above midscale. The offset error is the amount of deviation between the measured midscale transition point and the ideal mid­scale transition point.
Gain Error
Gain error is a figure of merit that indicates how well the slope of the actual transfer function matches the slope of the ideal transfer function. The slope of the actual transfer function is measured between two data points: positive full scale and negative full scale. Ideally, the positive full-scale MAX1209 transition occurs at 1.5 LSBs below positive full scale, and the negative full­scale transition occurs at 0.5 LSB above negative full scale. The gain error is the difference of the measured transition points minus the difference of the ideal transi­tion points.
Small-Signal Noise Floor (SSNF)
Small-signal noise floor is the integrated noise and dis­tortion power in the Nyquist band for small-signal inputs. The DC offset is excluded from this noise calcu­lation. For this converter, a small signal is defined as a single tone with an amplitude less than -35dBFS. This parameter captures the thermal and quantization noise characteristics of the converter and can be used to help calculate the overall noise figure of a receive channel. Go to www.maxim-ic.com for application notes on thermal + quantization noise floor.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
For a waveform perfectly reconstructed from digital samples, the theoretical maximum SNR is the ratio of the full-scale analog input (RMS value) to the RMS quantization error (residual error). The ideal, theoretical minimum analog-to-digital noise is caused by quantiza­tion error only and results directly from the ADC’s reso­lution (N bits):
SNR
[max]
= 6.02 × N + 1.76
In reality, there are other noise sources besides quanti­zation noise: thermal noise, reference noise, clock jitter,
12-Bit, 80Msps, 3.3V IF-Sampling ADC
24 ______________________________________________________________________________________
etc. SNR is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS signal to the RMS noise. RMS noise includes all spec­tral components to the Nyquist frequency excluding the fundamental, the first six harmonics (HD2–HD7), and the DC offset.
Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion (SINAD)
SINAD is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS signal to the RMS noise plus distortion. RMS noise plus distor­tion includes all spectral components to the Nyquist fre­quency excluding the fundamental and the DC offset.
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
ENOB specifies the dynamic performance of an ADC at a specific input frequency and sampling rate. An ideal ADC’s error consists of quantization noise only. ENOB for a full-scale sinusoidal input waveform is computed from:
Single-Tone Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
(SFDR)
SFDR is the ratio expressed in decibels of the RMS amplitude of the fundamental (maximum signal compo­nent) to the RMS amplitude of the next-largest spurious component, excluding DC offset.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the RMS sum of the first six harmon­ics of the input signal to the fundamental itself. This is expressed as:
where V1is the fundamental amplitude, and V2through V7are the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 7th-order harmonics (HD2–HD7).
Intermodulation Distortion (IMD)
IMD is the ratio of the RMS sum of the intermodulation products to the RMS sum of the two fundamental input tones. This is expressed as:
The fundamental input tone amplitudes (V
1
and V2) are
at -7dBFS. Fourteen intermodulation products (VIM_)
are used in the MAX1209 IMD calculation. The inter­modulation products are the amplitudes of the output spectrum at the following frequencies, where f
IN1
and
f
IN2
are the fundamental input tone frequencies:

Third-Order Intermodulation (IM3)

IN1
and f
IN2
. The individual input tone levels are at -7dBFS. The third­order intermodulation products are 2 x f

Two-Tone Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
(SFDR
TT
)
SFDRTTrepresents the ratio, expressed in decibels, of the RMS amplitude of either input tone to the RMS amplitude of the next-largest spurious component in the spectrum, excluding DC offset. This spurious com­ponent can occur anywhere in the spectrum up to Nyquist and is usually an intermodulation product or a harmonic.
Full-Power Bandwidth
A large -0.5dBFS analog input signal is applied to an ADC, and the input frequency is swept up to the point where the amplitude of the digitized conversion result has decreased by -3dB. This point is defined as full­power input bandwidth frequency.
In practical laboratory measurements, full-power band­width is limited by the analog input circuitry and not the ADC itself. For the MAX1209, the full-power bandwidth is tested using the MAX1211 evaluation kit input circuitry.
Aperture Delay
The MAX1209 samples data on the falling edge of its sampling clock. In actuality, there is a small delay between the falling edge of the sampling clock and the actual sampling instant. Aperture delay (tAD) is the time defined between the falling edge of the sampling clock and the instant when an actual sample is taken (Figure 4).

Aperture Jitter
Figure 4 depicts the aperture jitter (tAJ), which is the
sample-to-sample variation in the aperture delay.
Output Noise (n
OUT
)
The output noise (n
OUT
) parameter is similar to the ther­mal + quantization noise parameter and is an indication of the ADC’s overall noise performance.
No fundamental input tone is used to test for n
OUT
; INP, INN, and COM are connected together and 1024k data points collected. n
OUT
is computed by taking the RMS
value of the collected data points.
Overdrive Recovery Time
Overdrive recovery time is the time required for the ADC to recover from an input transient that exceeds the full-scale limits. The MAX1209 specifies overdrive recovery time using an input transient that exceeds the full-scale limits by ±10%.
