DESCRIPTION

The DAC3283 is a dual-channel 16-bit 800 MSPS digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with an 8-bit LVDS input data bus with on-chip termination, optional 2x-4x interpolation filters, digital IQ compensation and internal voltage reference. The DAC3283 offers superior linearity, noise and crosstalk performance.
Input data can be interpolated by 2x or 4x through on-chip interpolating FIR filters with over 85 dB of stop-band attenuation. Multiple DAC3283 devices can be fully synchronized.
The DAC3283 allows either a complex or real output. An optional coarse mixer in complex mode provides frequency upconversion and the dual DAC output produces a complex Hilbert Transform pair. The digital IQ compensation feature allows optimization of phase, gain and offset to maximize sideband rejection and minimize LO feed-through of an external quadrature modulator performing the final single sideband RF up-conversion.
The DAC3283 is characterized for operation over the entire industrial temperature range of –40°C to 85°C and is available in a 48-pin 7×7mm QFN package.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

DEFINITION OF SPECIFICATIONS

Adjacent Carrier Leakage Ratio (ACLR): Defined for a 3.84Mcps 3GPP W-CDMA input signal measured in a
3.84MHz bandwidth at a 5MHz offset from the carrier with a 12dB peak-to-average ratio. Analog and Digital Power Supply Rejection Ratio (APSSR, DPSSR): Defined as the percentage error in the
ratio of the delta IOUT and delta supply voltage normalized with respect to the ideal IOUT current. Differential Nonlinearity (DNL): Defined as the variation in analog output associated with an ideal 1 LSB
change in the digital input code. Gain Drift: Defined as the maximum change in gain, in terms of ppm of full-scale range (FSR) per °C, from the
value at ambient (25°C) to values over the full operating temperature range. Gain Error: Defined as the percentage error (in FSR%) for the ratio between the measured full-scale output
current and the ideal full-scale output current. Integral Nonlinearity (INL): Defined as the maximum deviation of the actual analog output from the ideal output,
determined by a straight line drawn from zero scale to full scale. Intermodulation Distortion (IMD3, IMD): The two-tone IMD3 or four-tone IMD is defined as the ratio (in dBc) of
the worst 3rd-order (or higher) intermodulation distortion product to either fundamental output tone. Offset Drift: Defined as the maximum change in DC offset, in terms of ppm of full-scale range (FSR) per °C,
from the value at ambient (25°C) to values over the full operating temperature range. Offset Error: Defined as the percentage error (in FSR%) for the ratio between the measured mid-scale output
current and the ideal mid-scale output current. Output Compliance Range: Defined as the minimum and maximum allowable voltage at the output of the
current-output DAC. Exceeding this limit may result reduced reliability of the device or adversely affecting distortion performance.
Reference Voltage Drift: Defined as the maximum change of the reference voltage in ppm per degree Celsius from value at ambient (25°C) to values over the full operating temperature range.
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR): Defined as the difference (in dBc) between the peak amplitude of the output signal and the peak spurious signal.
Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR): Defined as the ratio of the RMS value of the fundamental output signal to the RMS sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist frequency, including noise, but excluding the first six harmonics and dc.

SERIAL INTERFACE

The serial port of the DAC3283 is a flexible serial interface which communicates with industry standard microprocessors and microcontrollers. The interface provides read/write access to all registers used to define the operating modes of DAC3283. It is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats and can be configured as a 3 or 4 pin interface by sif4_ena in register CONFIG23. In both configurations, SCLK is the serial interface input clock and SDENB is serial interface enable. For 3 pin configuration, SDIO is a bidirectional pin for both data in and data out. For 4 pin configuration, SDIO is data in only and ALARM_SDO is data out only. Data is input into the device with the rising edge of SCLK. Data is output from the device on the falling edge of SCLK.
Each read/write operation is framed by signal SDENB (Serial Data Enable Bar) asserted low for 2 to 5 bytes, depending on the data length to be transferred (1–4 bytes). The first frame byte is the instruction cycle which identifies the following data transfer cycle as read or write, how many bytes to transfer, and what address to transfer the data. Table 2 indicates the function of each bit in the instruction cycle and is followed by a detailed description of each bit. Frame bytes 2 to 5 comprise the data transfer cycle.

R/W Identifies the following data transfer cycle as a read or write operation. A high indicates a read
operation from DAC3283 and a low indicates a write operation to DAC3283.
[N1:N0] Identifies the number of data bytes to be transferred per Table 3. Data is transferred MSB first.

0 0 Transfer 1 Byte 0 1 Transfer 2 Bytes 1 0 Transfer 3 Bytes 1 1 Transfer 4 Bytes
[A4:A0] Identifies the address of the register to be accessed during the read or write operation. For
multi-byte transfers, this address is the starting address. Note that the address is written to the DAC3283 MSB first and counts down for each byte.
Figure 32 shows the serial interface timing diagram for a DAC3283 write operation. SCLK is the serial interface
clock input to DAC3283. Serial data enable SDENB is an active low input to DAC3283. SDIO is serial data in. Input data to DAC3283 is clocked on the rising edges of SCLK.

Figure 32. Serial Interface Write Timing Diagram
Figure 33 shows the serial interface timing diagram for a DAC3283 read operation. SCLK is the serial interface
clock input to DAC3283. Serial data enable SDENB is an active low input to DAC3283. SDIO is serial data in during the instruction cycle. In 3 pin configuration, SDIO is data out from DAC3283 during the data transfer cycle(s), while ALARM_SDO is in a high-impedance state. In 4 pin configuration, ALARM_SDO is data out from DAC3283 during the data transfer cycle(s). At the end of the data transfer, ALARM_SDO will output low on the final falling edge of SCLK until the rising edge of SDENB when it will 3-state.

DATA INTERFACE

The DAC3283 has a single 8-bit LVDS bus that accepts dual, 16-bit data input in byte-wide format. Data into the DAC3283 is formatted according to the diagram shown in Figure 34 where index 0 is the data LSB and index 15 is the data MSB. The data is sampled by DATACLK, a double data rate (DDR) clock.
The FRAME signal is required to indicate the beginning of a frame. The frame signal can be either a pulse or a periodic signal where the frame period corresponds to 8 samples. The pulse-width (t equal to ½ of the DATACLK period. FRAME is sampled by a rising edge in DATACLK.
The setup and hold requirements listed in the specifications tables must be met to ensure proper sampling.
Figure 34. Byte-Wide Data Transmission Format
) needs to be at least
(FRAME)

INPUT FIFO

The DAC3283 includes a 2-channel, 16-bits wide and 8-samples deep input FIFO which acts as an elastic buffer. The purpose of the FIFO is to absorb any timing variations between the input data and the internal DAC data rate clock such as the ones resulting from clock-to-data variations from the data source.
Figure 35 shows a simplified block diagram of the FIFO.
Figure 35. DAC3283 FIFO Block Diagram
Product Folder Link(s): DAC3283
Data is written to the device 8-bits at a time on the rising and falling edges of DATACLK. In order to form a complete 32-bit wide sample (16-bit I-data and 16-bit Q-data) two DATACLK periods are required as shown in
Figure 36. Each 32-bit wide sample is written into the FIFO at the address indicated by the write pointer.
Similarly, data from the FIFO is read by the FIFO Out Clock 32-bits at a time from the address indicated by the read pointer. The FIFO Out Clock is generated internally from the DACCLK signal and its rate is equal to DACCLK/Interpolation. Each time a FIFO write or FIFO read is done the corresponding pointer moves to the next address.

The reset position for the FIFO read and write pointers is set by default to addresses 0 and 4 as shown in
Figure 35. This offset gives optimal margin within the FIFO. The default read pointer location can be set to
another value using fifo_offset(2:0) in register CONFIG3. Under normal conditions data is written-to and read-from the FIFO at the same rate and consequently the write and read pointer gap remains constant. If the FIFO write and read rates are different, the corresponding pointers will be cycling at different speeds which could result in pointer collision. Under this condition the FIFO attempts to read and write data from the same address at the same time which will result in errors and thus must be avoided.
The FRAME signal besides acting as a frame indicator can also used to reset the FIFO pointers to their initial location. Unlike Data, the FRAME signal is latched only on the rising edges of DATACLK. When a rising edge occurs on FRAME, the pointers will return to their original position. The write pointer is always set back to position 0 upon reset. The read pointer reset position is determined by fifo_offset (address 4 by default).
The reset can be done periodically or only once during initialization as the pointer automatically returns to the initial position when the FIFO has been filled. To enable a single reset, fifo_reset_ena (CONFIG0, bit 5) must be set to 0 after initialization.
Figure 36. FIFO Write Description

FIFO ALARMS

The FIFO only operates correctly when the write and read pointers are positioned properly. If either pointer over or under runs the other, samples will be duplicated or skipped. To prevent this, register CONFIG7 can be used to track three FIFO related alarms:
alarm_fifo_2away. Occurs when the pointers are within two addresses of each other.
alarm_fifo_1away. Occurs when the pointers are within one address of each other.
alarm_fifo_collision. Occurs when the pointers are equal to each other. These three alarm events are generated asynchronously with respect to the clocks and can be accessed either
through CONFIG7 or through the ALARM_SDO pin.

FIFO MODES OF OPERATION

The DAC3283 FIFO can be completely bypassed through register CONFIG1. The register configuration for each mode is described in Table 4.

SLAS693A –MARCH 2010–REVISED APRIL 2010
a) Enabled Mode
This is the recommended mode of operation for the DAC3283. In FIFO enabled mode, the FIFO is active and can be reset continuously or only once during initialization. To reset only once fifo_reset_ena must be set to 0 after initialization.
b) Bypass Mode
In FIFO bypass mode, the FIFO block is not used. As a result the input data is handed off from the DATACLK to the DACCLK domain without any compensation. In this mode the relationship between DATACLK and DACCLK (t
) is critical and used as a synchronizing mechanism for the internal logic. Due to the t
_align
constraint it is
_align
highly recommended that a clock synchronizer device such as Texas Instruments’ CDCM7005 or CDCE62005 is used to provide both clock inputs. In bypass mode the pointers have no effect on the data path or handoff.

DATA PATTERN CHECKER

The DAC3283 incorporates a simple pattern checker test in order to determine errors in the data interface. The test mode is enabled by asserting iotest_ena in register CONFIG1. In test mode the analog outputs are deactivated regardless of the state of TXENABLE.
The data pattern key used for the test is 8 words long and is specified by the contents of iotest_pattern[0:7] in registers CONFIG9 through CONFIG16. The data pattern key can be modified by changing the contents of these registers.
The first word in the test frame is determined by a rising edge transition in FRAMEP/N. The test mode determines if one or more words were received incorrectly by comparing the received data against the data pattern key. The bits in iotest_results(7:0) in register CONFIG8 indicate which words were received incorrectly. Furthermore, an error condition will trigger the alarm_from_iotest bit in register CONFIG7. Once set, the alarm_from_iotest bit must be reset through the serial interface to allow further testing. Alternatively, the 64cnt_ena bit in register CONFIG3 can be enabled to reset the alarms automatically after 64 good samples without the need for a SIF write to clear the alarm.

DATACLK MONITOR

The DAC3283 incorporates a clock monitor to determine if DATACLK is present. A missing DATACLK may result in unexpected DAC outputs. The clock monitor circuit issues two alarms if a missing DATACLK event is detected: clk_alarm (bit 7 in register VERSION31) and tx_off (bit 6 in register VERSION31). When tx_off is set the DAC3283 outputs are automatically disabled by setting data to mid-scale.
Both alarms are set by default to trigger the ALARM_SDO pin. This functionality can be disabled by masking the alarms in register CONFIG17. Once set, the alarms must be reset through the serial interface by writing a 0 to the alarm bits. The clock monitor alarms can be disabled by setting clk_alarm_ena or tx_off_ena in register CONFIG17 to 0.
The clock monitoring function is implemented as follows:
Power up the device using the recommended power-up sequence.
Clear clk_alarm and tx_off by writing a 1 and then a 0.
Unmask the alarms in register CONFIG17.
In the case of an alarm event, the ALARM_SDO pin will trigger.
Read registers CONFIG7 and VERSION31 registers to determine which alarm triggered the ALARM_SDO pin.
In the case clk_alarm and/or tx_off are set, a DATACLK interruption has occurred.
Re-apply DATACLK and clear clk_alarm by writing 1 and then 0.
Re-read clk_alarm to verify the clock loss event has not re-triggered the alarm.
Keep clearing and reading clk_alarm until no error is reported.
If enabled re-synchronize the FIFO.
Clear the tx_off alarm by writing 1 and the 0. This will re-enable the DAC outputs.

COARSE MIXER

The DAC3283 has a coarse mixer block capable of shifting the input signal spectrum by the fixed mixing frequencies fS/2 or fS/4. The coarse mixing function is built into the interpolation filters and thus FIR0 (2x interpolation) or FIR0 and FIR1 (4x interpolation) must be enabled to use it.

The coarse mixer in the DAC3283 treats the A and B inputs as complex input data and for most mixing frequencies produces a complex output. Only when the mixing frequency is set to fS/2 the A and B channels can be maintained isolated as shown in Table 6. In this case the two channels are upconverted as independent signals. By setting the mixer to fS/2 the interpolation filter outputs are inverted thus behaving as a high-pass filter.

QUADRATURE MODULATION CORRECTION (QMC)

The Quadrature Modulator Correction (QMC) block provides a means for adjusting the gain and phase of the complex signal. At a quadrature modulator output, gain and phase imbalances result in an undesired sideband signal.
The block diagram for the QMC is shown in Figure 42. The QMC block contains 3 programmable parameters: qmc_gaina(10:0), qmc_gainb(10:0) and qmc_phase(9:0).
Registers qmc_gaina(10:0) and qmc_gainb(10:0) control the I and Q path gains and are 11 bit values with a range of 0 to approximately 2. This value is used to scale the signal range. Register qmc_phase(9:0) controls the phase imbalance between I and Q and is a 10-bit value that ranges from –1/8 to approximately +1/8. This value is multiplied by each Q sample then summed into the I sample path. This operation is a simplified approximation of a true phase rotation and covers the range from –3.75 to +3.75 degrees in 1024 steps.
A write to register CONFIG27 is required to load the gain and phase values (CONFIG27-CONFIG30) into the QMC block simultaneously. When updating the gain and/or phase values CONFIG27 should be written last. Programming any of the other three registers will not affect the gain and phase settings.
Figure 42. QMC Block Diagram

DIGITAL OFFSET CONTROL

The qmc_offseta(12:0) and qmc_offsetb(12:0) values in registers CONFIG20 through CONFIG23 can be used to independently adjust the A and B path DC offsets. Both offset values are in represented in 2s-complement format with a range from –4096 to 4095.
Note that a write to register CONFIG20 is required to load the values of all four qmc_offset registers (CONFIG20-CONFIG23) into the offset block simultaneously. When updating the offset values CONFIG20 should be written last. Programming any of the other three registers will not affect the offset setting.
The offset value adds a digital offset to the digital data before digital-to-analog conversion. Since the offset is added directly to the data it may be necessary to back off the signal to prevent saturation. Both data and offset values are LSB aligned.

TEMPERATURE SENSOR

The DAC3283 incorporates a temperature sensor block which monitors the temperature by measuring the voltage across 2 transistors. The voltage is converted to an 8-bit digital word using a successive-approximation (SAR) analog to digital conversion process. The result is scaled, limited and formatted as a twos complement value representing the temperature in degrees Celsius.
The sampling is controlled by the serial interface signals SDENB and SCLK. If the temperature sensor is enabled (tsense_ena = 1 in register CONFIG24) a conversion takes place each time the serial port is written or read. The data is only read and sent out by the digital block when the temperature sensor is read in register CONFIG5. The conversion uses the first eight clocks of the serial clock as the capture and conversion clock, the data is valid on the falling eighth SCLK. The data is then clocked out of the chip on the rising edge of the ninth SCLK. No other clocks to the chip are necessary for the temperature sensor operation. As a result the temperature sensor is enabled even when the device is in sleep mode.
In order for the process described above to operate properly, the serial port read from CONFIG5 must be done with an SCLK period of at least 1µs. If this is not satisfied the temperature sensor accuracy is greatly reduced.

POWER-UP SEQUENCE

The following startup sequence is recommended to power-up the DAC3283:
Set TXENABLE low.
Supply 1.8V to DACVDD18, DIGVDD18, CLKVDD18 and VFUSE simultaneously and 3.3V to AVDD33. Within AVDD33 the multiple AVDD33 pins should be powered up simultaneously. The 1.8V and 3.3V supplies can be powered up simultaneously or in any order.
There are no specific requirements on the ramp rate for the supplies.
Provide all LVPECL inputs: DACCLKP/N and if used OSTRP/N.
Program the SIF registers.
Provide all LVDS inputs (D[7:0]P/N, DATACLKP/N and FRAMEP/N) simultaneously.
Sync the clock dividers and FIFO. After a FRAMEP/N low-to-high transition, clock divider syncing must be disabled by setting clkdiv_sync_ena (CONFIG18, bit 1) to 0. Optionally, disable FIFO syncing by setting fifo_reset_ena (CONFIG0, bit 5) and multi_sync_ena (CONFIG0, bit 4) to 0. Except when in Multi-DAC operation it is recommended to sync the DACs and their FIFO’s only once during initialization.
Enable transmit of data by asserting the TXENABLE pin.

SLEEP MODES

The DAC3283 features independent sleep control of each DAC (sleepa and sleepb), their corresponding clock path (clkpath_sleep_a and clkpath_sleep_b) as well as the clock input receiver of the device (clkrecv_sleep). The sleep control of each of these components is done through the SIF interface and is enabled by setting a 1 to the corresponding sleep register.

Complete power down of the device is set by setting all of these components to sleep. Under this mode the supply power consumption is reduced to 15mW. Power-up time in this case will be in the milliseconds range. Alternatively for those applications were power-up and power-down times are critical it is recommended to only set the DACs to sleep through the sleepa and sleepb registers. In this case both the sleep and wake-up times are only 90µs.

In that case, an external buffer with high impedance input should be applied in order to limit the bandgap load current to a maximum of 100nA. The internal reference can be disabled and overridden by an external reference by setting the CONFIG25 extref_ena control bit. Capacitor C

DAC TRANSFER FUNCTION

The CMOS DAC’s consist of a segmented array of NMOS current sinks, capable of sinking a full-scale output current up to 20mA. Differential current switches direct the current to either one of the complementary output nodes IOUT1 or IOUT2. (DACA = IOUTA1 or IOUTA2 and DACB = IOUTB1 or IOUTB2.) Complementary output currents enable differential operation, thus canceling out common mode noise sources (digital feed-through, on-chip and PCB noise), dc offsets, even order distortion components, and increasing signal output power by a factor of two.
The full-scale output current is set using external resistor R reference source (+1.2V) and control amplifier. Current I provide a maximum full-scale output current equal to 16 times IBIAS.
The relation between IOUT1 and IOUT2 can be expressed as:
IOUT1 = – IOUTFS – IOUT2

Current flowing into a node is denoted as – current and current flowing out of a node as + current. Since the output stage is a current sink the current can only flow from AVDD into the IOUT1 and IOUT2 pins. The output current flow in each pin driving a resistive load can be expressed as:
IOUT1 = IOUTFS × (65535 – CODE) / 65536
IOUT2 = IOUTFS × CODE / 65536 where CODE is the decimal representation of the DAC data input word. For the case where IOUT1 and IOUT2 drive resistor loads RLdirectly, this translates into single ended voltages
at IOUT1 and IOUT2:
VOUT1 = AVDD – | IOUT1 | × R
VOUT2 = AVDD – | IOUT2 | × R
L L
Assuming that the data is full scale (65536 in offset binary notation) and the RLis 25 , the differential voltage between pins IOUT1 and IOUT2 can be expressed as:
VOUT1 = AVDD – | –0 mA | × 25 = 3.3 V
VOUT2 = AVDD – | –20 mA | × 25 = 2.8 V
VDIFF = VOUT1 – VOUT2 = 0.5 V Note that care should be taken not to exceed the compliance voltages at node IOUT1 and IOUT2, which would
lead to increased signal distortion.

ANALOG CURRENT OUTPUTS

Figure 49 shows a simplified schematic of the current source array output with corresponding switches.
Differential switches direct the current of each individual NMOS current source to either the positive output node IOUT1 or its complementary negative output node IOUT2. The output impedance is determined by the stack of the current sources and differential switches, and is typically >300 kin parallel with an output capacitance of 5 pF.
The external output resistors are referenced to an external ground. The minimum output compliance at nodes IOUT1 and IOUT2 is limited to AVDD – 0.5 V, determined by the CMOS process. Beyond this value, transistor breakdown may occur resulting in reduced reliability of the DAC3283 device. The maximum output compliance voltage at nodes IOUT1 and IOUT2 equals AVDD + 0.5 V. Exceeding the minimum output compliance voltage adversely affects distortion performance and integral non-linearity. The optimum distortion performance for a single-ended or differential output is achieved when the maximum full-scale signal at IOUT1 and IOUT2 does not exceed 0.5 V.

The DAC3283 can be easily configured to drive a doubly terminated 50cable using a properly selected RF transformer. Figure 50 and Figure 51 show the 50doubly terminated transformer configuration with 1:1 and 4:1 impedance ratio, respectively. Note that the center tap of the primary input of the transformer has to be connected to AVDD to enable a dc current flow. Applying a 20 mA full-scale output current would lead to a 0.5 VPPfor a 1:1 transformer, and a 1 VPPoutput for a 4:1 transformer. The low dc-impedance between IOUT1 or IOUT2 and the transformer center tap sets the center of the ac-signal at AVDD, so the 1 VPPoutput for the 4:1 transformer results in an output between AVDD + 0.5 V and AVDD – 0.5 V.

PASSIVE INTERFACE TO ANALOG QUADRATURE MODULATORS

A common application in communication systems is to interface the DAC to an IQ modulator like the TRF3703 family of modulators from Texas Instruments. The input of the modulator is generally of high impedance and requires a specific common-mode voltage. A simple resistive network can be used to maintain 50Ω load impedance for the DAC3283 and also provide the necessary common-mode voltages for both the DAC and the modulator.

Figure 52. DAC to Analog Quadrature Modulator Interface
The DAC3283 has a maximum 20mA full-scale output and a voltage compliance range of AVDD ± 0.5 V. The TRF3703 IQ modulator family can be operated at three common-mode voltages: 1.5V, 1.7V, and 3.3V.
Figure 53 shows the recommended passive network to interface the DAC3283 to the TRF3703-17 which has a
common mode voltage of 1.7V. The network generates the 3.3V common mode required by the DAC output and
1.7V at the modulator input, while still maintaining 50Ω load for the DAC.
Figure 53. DAC3283 to TRF3703-17 Interface
If V1 is set to 5V and V2 is set to -5V, the corresponding resistor values are R1 = 57Ω, R2 = 80Ω, and R3 = 336Ω. The loss developed through R2 is about -1.86 dB. In the case where there is no –5V supply available and V2 is set to 0V, the resistor values are R1 = 66Ω, R2 = 101Ω, and R3 = 107Ω. The loss with these values is –5.76dB.
Figure 54 shows the recommended network for interfacing with the TRF3703-33 which requires a common mode
of 3.3V. This is the simplest interface as there is no voltage shift. Because there is no voltage shift there is any loss in the network. With V1 = 5V and V2 = 0V, the resistor values are R1 = 66Ω and R3 = 208Ω.

Figure 54. DAC3283 to TRF3703-33 Interface
In most applications a baseband filter is required between the DAC and the modulator to eliminate the DAC images. This filter can be placed after the common-mode biasing network. For the DAC to modulator network shown in Figure 55, R2 and the filter load R4 need to be considered into the DAC impedance. The filter has to be designed for the source impedance created by the resistor combination of R3 // (R2+R1). The effective impedance seen by the DAC is affected by the filter termination resistor resulting in R1 // (R2+R3 // (R4/2)).
Figure 55. DAC3283 to Modulator Interface with Filter
Factoring in R4 into the DAC load, a typical interface to the TRF3703-17 with V1 = 5V and V2 = 0V results in the following values: R1 = 72, R2 = 116, R3 = 124and R4 = 150. This implies that the filter needs to be designed for 75input and output impedance (single-ended impedance). The common mode levels for the DAC and modulator are maintained at 3.3V and 1.7V and the DAC load is 50. The added load of the filter termination causes the signal to be attenuated by –10.8 dB.
A filter can be implemented in a similar manner to interface with the TRF3703-33. In this case it is much simpler to balance the loads and common mode voltages due to the absence of R2. An added benefit is that there is no loss in this network. With V1 = 5V and V2 = 0V the network can be designed such that R1 = 115, R3 = 681Ω, and R4 = 200Ω. This results in a filter impedance of R1 // R2=100Ω, and a DAC load of R1 // R3 // (R4/2) which is equal to 50Ω. R4 is a differential resistor and does not affect the common mode level created by R1 and R3. The common-mode voltage is set at 3.3 V for a full-scale current of 20mA.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

DIRECT CONVERSION RADIO

Refer to Figure 56 for an example Direct Conversion Radio. The DAC3283 receives an interleaved complex I/Q baseband input data stream and increases the sample rate through interpolation by a factor of 2 or 4. By performing digital interpolation on the input data, undesired images of the original signal can be push out of the band of interest and more easily suppressed with analog filters.
For a Zero IF (ZIF) frequency plan, complex mixing of the baseband signal is not required. Alternatively, for a Complex IF frequency plan the input data can be pre-placed at an IF within the bandwidth limitations of the interpolation filters. In addition, complex mixing is available using the coarse mixer block to up-convert the signal. The output of both DAC channels is used to produce a Hilbert transform pair and can be expressed as:
A
(t) = A(t)cos(wct) – B(t)sin(wct) = m(t)
OUT
B
(t) = A(t)sin(wct) + B(t)cos(wct) = mh(t)
OUT
where m(t) and mh(t) connote a Hilbert transform pair and wcis the mixer frequency. The complex output is input to an analog quadrature modulator (AQM) such as the Texas Instruments TRF3720 for a single side-band (SSB) up conversion to RF. A passive (resistor only) interface to the AQM with an optional LC filter network is recommended. The TRF3720 includes a VCO/PLL to generate the LO frequency. Upper single-sideband upconversion is achieved at the output of the analog quadrature modulator, whose output is expressed as:
RF(t) = A(t)cos(wc+ wLO)t – B(t)sin(wc+ wLO)t Flexibility is provided to the user by allowing for the selection of negative mixing frequency to produce a
lower-sideband upconversion. Note that the process of complex mixing translates the signal frequency from 0Hz means that the analog quadrature modulator IQ imbalance produces a sideband that falls outside the signal of interest. DC offset error in DAC and AQM signal path may produce LO feed-through at the RF output which may fall in the band of interest. To suppress the LO feed-through, the DAC3283 provides a digital offset correction capability for both DAC-A and DAC-B paths. In addition phase and gain imbalances in the DAC and AQM result in a lower-sideband product. The DAC3283 offers gain and phase correction capabilities to minimize the sideband product.
The complex IF architecture has several advantages over the real IF architecture:
Uncalibrated side-band suppression ~ 35dBc compared to 0dBc for real IF architecture.
Direct DAC to AQM interface – no amplifiers required
DAC 2nd Nyquist zone image is offset f
need for filtering at the DAC output.
Uncalibrated LO feed through for AQM is ~ 35dBc and calibration can reduce or completely remove the LO
feed through.
