The AD9226 uses a multistage differential pipelined architecture with a pat- ented input stage and output error correction logic to provide 12-bit accuracy at 65 MSPS data rates. There are no missing codes over the full operating temperature range (guaranteed). The input of the AD9226 allows for easy interfacing to both imaging and communications systems. With a truly differential input structure, the user can select a variety of input ranges and offsets including single-ended applications. The sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) is well suited for IF undersampling schemes such as in single-channel communi- cation applications with input frequencies up to and well beyond Nyquist frequencies. The AD9226 has an on-board programmable reference. For sys- tem design flexibility, an external reference can also be chosen. A single clock input is used to control all internal conversion cycles. An out-of-range signal indicates an overflow condition that can be used with the most significant bit to determine low or high overflow. The AD9226 has two important mode functions. One will set the data format to binary or two’s complement. The second will make the ADC immune to clock duty cycle variations. PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS IF Sampling—The patented SHA input can be configured for either single-ended or differential inputs. It will maintain out- standing AC performance up to input frequencies of 300 MHz. Low Power—The AD9226 at 475 mW consumes a fraction of the power presently available in existing, high-speed monolithic solutions. Out of Range (OTR)—The OTR output bit indicates when the input signal is beyond the AD9226’s input range. Single Supply—The AD9226 uses a single 5 V power supply simplifying system power supply design. It also features a sepa- rate digital output driver supply line to accommodate 3 V and 5 V logic families. Pin Compatibility—The AD9226 is similar to the AD9220, AD9221, AD9223, AD9224, and AD9225 ADCs. Clock Duty Cycle Stabilizer—Makes conversion immune to varying clock pulsewidths.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONSINTEGRAL NONLINEARITY (INL)INL refers to the deviation of each individual code from a linedrawn from “negative full scale” through “positive full scale.”The point used as “negative full scale” occurs 1/2 LSB beforethe first code transition. “Positive full scale” is defined as a level1 1/2 LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation ismeasured from the middle of each particular code to the truestraight line.

DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY (DNL, NO MISSINGCODES)An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSBapart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. Guaranteedno missing codes to 12-bit resolution indicates that all 4096codes, respectively, must be present over all operating ranges.

ZERO ERRORThe major carry transition should occur for an analog value1/2 LSB below VINA = VINB. Zero error is defined as thedeviation of the actual transition from that point.

GAIN ERRORThe first code transition should occur at an analog value1/2 LSB above negative full scale. The last transition shouldoccur at an analog value 1 1/2 LSB below the positive full scale.Gain error is the deviation of the actual difference between firstand last code transitions and the ideal difference between firstand last code transitions.

TEMPERATURE DRIFTThe temperature drift for zero error and gain error specifies themaximum change from the initial (25°C) value to the value atTMIN or TMAX.

POWER SUPPLY REJECTIONThe specification shows the maximum change in full scale fromthe value with the supply at the minimum limit to the value withthe supply at its maximum limit.

APERTURE JITTERAperture jitter is the variation in aperture delay for successivesamples and can be manifested as noise on the input to the ADC.

APERTURE DELAYAperture delay is a measure of the sample-and-hold amplifier(SHA) performance and is measured from the rising edge of theclock input to when the input signal is held for conversion.

SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (S/N+D, SINAD)RATIOS/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the measured inputsignal to the rms sum of all other spectral components belowthe Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc.The value for S/N+D is expressed in decibels.

EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB)For a sine wave, SINAD can be expressed in terms of the num-ber of bits. Using the following formula,

N = (SINAD – 1.76)/6.02

it is possible to obtain a measure of performance expressed asN, the effective number of bits.

Thus, effective number of bits for a device for sine wave inputsat a given input frequency can be calculated directly from itsmeasured SINAD.

TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD)THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic com-ponents to the rms value of the measured input signal and isexpressed as a percentage or in decibels.

SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO (SNR)SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal tothe rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquistfrequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The valuefor SNR is expressed in decibels.

SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR)SFDR is the difference in dB between the rms amplitude of theinput signal and the peak spurious signal.

ENCODE PULSEWIDTH DUTY CYCLEPulsewidth high is the minimum amount of time that the clockpulse should be left in the logic “1” state to achieve rated per-formance; pulsewidth low is the minimum time the clock pulseshould be left in the low state. At a given clock rate, these specsdefine an acceptable clock duty cycle.

MINIMUM CONVERSION RATEThe clock rate at which the SNR of the lowest analog signalfrequency drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit.

MAXIMUM CONVERSION RATEThe encode rate at which parametric testing is performed.

OUTPUT PROPAGATION DELAYThe delay between the clock logic threshold and the time whenall bits are within valid logic levels.

TWO TONE SFDRThe ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms valueof the peak spurious component. The peak spurious componentmay or may not be an IMD product. May be reported in dBc(i.e., degrades as signal levels are lowered) or in dBFS (alwaysrelated back to converter full scale).

AD9226

THEORY OF OPERATIONThe AD9226 is a high-performance, single-supply 12-bit ADC.The analog input of the AD9226 is very flexible allowing for bothsingle-ended or differential inputs of varying amplitudes that canbe ac- or dc-coupled.

It utilizes a nine-stage pipeline architecture with a wideband,sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) implemented on a cost-effective CMOS process. A patented structure is used in theSHA to greatly improve high frequency SFDR/distortion. Thisalso improves performance in IF undersampling applications.Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last stage, consists of alow resolution flash ADC connected to a switched capacitorDAC and interstage residue amplifier (MDAC). The residueamplifier amplifies the difference between the reconstructed DACoutput and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. Onebit of redundancy is used in each of the stages to facilitate digitalcorrection of flash errors. The last stage simply consists of aflash ADC.

Factory calibration ensures high linearity and low distortion.

ANALOG INPUT OPERATIONFigure 3 shows the equivalent analog input of the AD9226 whichconsists of a 750 MHz differential SHA. The differential inputstructure of the SHA is highly flexible, allowing the device to beeasily configured for either a differential or single-ended input.The analog inputs, VINA and VINB, are interchangeable withthe exception that reversing the inputs to the VINA and VINBpins results in a data inversion (complementing the output word).

The optimum noise and dc linearity performance for eitherdifferential or single-ended inputs is achieved with the largest inputsignal voltage span (i.e., 2 V input span) and matched inputimpedance for VINA and VINB. Only a slight degradation indc linearity performance exists between the 2 V and 1 V inputspans.

High frequency inputs may find the 1 V span better suited toachieve superior SFDR performance. (See Typical Perfor-mance Characteristics.)

The ADC samples the analog input on the rising edge of the clockinput. During the clock low time (between the falling edge andrising edge of the clock), the input SHA is in the sample mode;during the clock high time it is in hold. System disturbances justprior to the rising edge of the clock and/or excessive clock jitteron the rising edge may cause the input SHA to acquire the wrongvalue and should be minimized.

When the ADC is driven by an op amp and a capacitive load isswitched onto the output of the op amp, the output will momen-tarily drop due to its effective output impedance. As the outputrecovers, ringing may occur. To remedy the situation, a seriesresistor can be inserted between the op amp and the SHAinput as shown in Figure 4. A shunt capacitance also acts likea charge reservoir, sinking or sourcing the additional chargerequired by the hold capacitor, CH, further reducing currenttransients seen at the op amp’s output.

The optimum size of this resistor is dependent on several factors,including the ADC sampling rate, the selected op amp, and theparticular application. In most applications, a 30 Ω to 100 Ωresistor is sufficient.

For noise-sensitive applications, the very high bandwidth of theAD9226 may be detrimental and the addition of a series resistor

and/or shunt capacitor can help limit the wideband noise at theADC’s input by forming a low-pass filter. The source imped-ance driving VINA and VINB should be matched. Failure toprovide matching will result in degradation of the AD9226’sSNR, THD, and SFDR.

OVERVIEW OF INPUT AND REFERENCECONNECTIONSThe overall input span of the AD9226 is equal to the potentialat the VREF pin. The VREF potential may be obtained fromthe internal AD9226 reference or an external source (seeReference Operation section).

In differential applications, the center point of the span isobtained by the common-mode level of the signals. In single-ended applications, the center point is the dc potential appliedto one input pin while the signal is applied to the opposite inputpin. Figures 5a–5f show various system configurations.

DRIVING THE ANALOG INPUTSThe AD9226 has a very flexible input structure allowing it tointerface with single-ended or differential input interface circuitry.

The optimum mode of operation, analog input range, and asso-ciated interface circuitry will be determined by the particularapplications performance requirements as well as power sup-ply options.

DIFFERENTIAL DRIVER CIRCUITSDifferential operation requires that VINA and VINB be simulta-neously driven with two equal signals that are 180 out of phasewith each other.

Differential modes of operation (ac- or dc-coupled input) providethe best THD and SFDR performance over a wide frequencyrange. They should be considered for the most demandingspectral-based applications (e.g., direct IF conversion to digital).

Figure 5f. 1 V Differential Input, Common-ModeVoltage = 2.5 V (Recommended for IF Undersampling)

The differential input characterization for this data sheet wasperformed using the configuration shown in Figure 7.

Since not all applications have a signal preconditioned fordifferential operation, there is often a need to perform a single-ended-to-differential conversion. In systems that do not need tobe dc-coupled, an RF transformer with a center tap is the bestmethod to generate differential inputs for the AD9226. It pro-vides all the benefits of operating the ADC in the differentialmode without contributing additional noise or distortion. An RFtransformer also has the added benefit of providing electricalisolation between the signal source and the ADC. An improvementin THD and SFDR performance can be realized by operatingthe AD9226 in the differential mode. The performance enhance-ment between the differential and single-ended mode is mostnoteworthy as the input frequency approaches and goes beyondthe Nyquist frequency (i.e., fIN > FS /2).

The circuit shown in Figure 6a is an ideal method of applyinga differential dc drive to the AD9226. It uses an AD8138 toderive a differential signal from a single-ended one. Figure 6billustrates its performance.

Figure 7 presents the schematic of the suggested transformercircuit. The circuit uses a Minicircuits RF transformer, modelT1-1T, which has an impedance ratio of four (turns ratio of 2).The schematic assumes that the signal source has a 50 Ω sourceimpedance. The center tap of the transformer provides a con-venient means of level-shifting the input signal to a desiredcommon-mode voltage. In Figure 7 the transformer centertapis connected to a resistor divider at the midsupply voltage.

The same midsupply potential may be obtained from theCMLEVEL pin of the AD9226 in the LQFP package.

Referring to Figure 7, a series resistor, RS, is inserted between theAD9226 and the secondary of the transformer. The value of33 ohm was selected to specifically optimize both the THD andSNR performance of the ADC. RS and the internal capacitancehelp provide a low-pass filter to block high-frequency noise.

Transformers with other turns ratios may also be selected tooptimize the performance of a given application. For example, agiven input signal source or amplifier may realize an improve-ment in distortion performance at reduced output power levelsand signal swings. By selecting a transformer with a higherimpedance ratio (e.g., Minicircuits T16-6T with a 1:16 imped-ance ratio), the signal level is effectively “stepped up” thusfurther reducing the driving requirements of signal source.

SINGLE-ENDED DRIVER CIRCUITSThe AD9226 can be configured for single-ended operation usingdc- or ac-coupling. In either case, the input of the ADC must bedriven from an operational amplifier that will not degrade theADC’s performance. Because the ADC operates from a singlesupply, it will be necessary to level-shift ground-based bipolarsignals to comply with its input requirements. Both dc- andac-coupling provide this necessary function, but each methodresults in different interface issues which may influence thesystem design and performance.

Single-ended operation requires that VINA be ac- or dc-coupledto the input signal source, while VINB of the AD9226 be biasedto the appropriate voltage corresponding to the middle of the inputspan. The single-ended specifications for the AD9226 are char-acterized using Figure 9a circuitry with input spans of 1 V and2 V. The common-mode level is 2.5 V.

If the analog inputs exceed the supply limits, internal parasiticdiodes will turn on. This will result in transient currents withinthe device. Figure 8 shows a simple means of clamping an input.It uses a series resistor and two diodes. An optional capacitor isshown for ac-coupled applications. A larger series resistor canbe used to limit the fault current through D1 and D2. Thiscan cause a degradation in overall performance. A similarclamping circuit can also be used for each input if a differen-tial input signal is being applied. A better method to ensurethe input is not overdriven is to use amplifiers powered by a single5 V supply such as the AD8138.

AC-COUPLING AND INTERFACE ISSUESFor applications where ac-coupling is appropriate, the op ampoutput can be easily level-shifted by means of a couplingcapacitor. This has the advantage of allowing the op amp’s com-mon-mode level to be symmetrically biased to its midsupplylevel (i.e., (AVDD/2). Op amps that operate symmetrically withrespect to their power supplies typically provide the best acperformance as well as greatest input/output span. Various high-speed performance amplifiers that are restricted to +5 V/–5 Voperation and/or specified for 5 V single-supply operation can beeasily configured for the 2 V or 1 V input span of the AD9226.

Simple AC InterfaceFigure 9a shows a typical example of an ac-coupled, single-ended configuration of the SSOP package. The bias voltageshifts the bipolar, ground-referenced input signal to approxi-mately AVDD/2. The capacitors, C1 and C2, are 0.1 µF ceramicand 10 µF tantalum capacitors in parallel to achieve a lowcutoff frequency while maintaining a low impedance over awide frequency range. The combination of the capacitor and theresistor form a high-pass network with a high-pass –3 dB fre-quency determined by the equation,

f–3 dB = 1/(2 × π × R × (C1 + C2))

The low-impedance VREF output can be used to provide dcbias levels to the fixed VINB pin and the signal on VINA. Fig-ure 9b shows the VREF configured for 2.0 V, thus the inputrange of the ADC is 1.0 V to 3.0 V. Other input ranges couldbe selected by changing VREF.

When the inputs are biased from the reference (Figure 9b),there may be a slight degeneration of dynamic performance. Amidsupply output level is available at the CM LEVEL pin of theLQFP package.

Figure 10. THD vs. Common-Mode Voltage(2 V Differential Input Span, fIN = 10 MHz)

Figure 10 illustrates the relation between common-mode voltageand THD. Note that optimal performance occurs when thereference voltage is set to 2.0 V (input span = 2.0 V).

DC-COUPLING AND INTERFACE ISSUESMany applications require the analog input signal to be dc-coupledto the AD9226. An operational amplifier can be configured torescale and level-shift the input signal to make it compatiblewith the selected input range of the ADC.

The selected input range of the AD9226 should be consideredwith the headroom requirements of the particular op amp toprevent clipping of the signal. Many of the new high-performanceop amps are specified for only ±5 V operation and have limitedinput/output swing capabilities. Also, since the output of a dualsupply amplifier can swing below absolute minimum (–0.3 V),clamping its output should be considered in some applications(see Figure 8). When single-ended, dc-coupling is needed, theuse of the AD8138 in a differential configuration (Figure 9a) ishighly recommended.

Simple Op Amp BufferIn the simplest case, the input signal to the AD9226 will alreadybe biased at levels in accordance with the selected input range. Itis necessary to provide an adequately low source impedance forthe VINA and VINB analog pins of the ADC.

REFERENCE OPERATIONThe AD9226 contains an on-board bandgap reference thatprovides a pin-strappable option to generate either a 1 V or2 V output. With the addition of two external resistors, the usercan generate reference voltages between 1 V and 2 V. SeeFigures 5a-5f for a summary of the pin-strapping options for theAD9226 reference configurations. Another alternative is to usean external reference for designs requiring enhanced accuracyand/or drift performance described later in this section.

Figure 11a shows a simplified model of the internal voltage refer-ence of the AD9226. A reference amplifier buffers a 1 V fixedreference. The output from the reference amplifier, A1, appearson the VREF pin. The voltage on the VREF pin determinesthe full-scale input span of the ADC. This input span equals,

Full-Scale Input Span = VREF

The voltage appearing at the VREF pin, and the state of theinternal reference amplifier, A1, are determined by the voltageappearing at the SENSE pin. The logic circuitry contains com-parators that monitor the voltage at the SENSE pin. If theSENSE pin is tied to AVSS, the switch is connected to theinternal resistor network thus providing a VREF of 2.0 V. If theSENSE pin is tied to the VREF pin via a short or resistor, theswitch will connect to the SENSE pin. This connection will pro-vide a VREF of 1.0 V. An external resistor network will providean alternative VREF between 1.0 V and 2.0 V (see Figure 12).Another comparator controls internal circuitry that will disablethe reference amplifier if the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD.Disabling the reference amplifier allows the VREF pin to bedriven by an external voltage reference.

Figure 11b. CAPT and CAPB DC-Coupling

The actual reference voltages used by the internal circuitry of theAD9226 appear on the CAPT and CAPB pins. The voltageson these pins are symmetrical about the analog supply. Forproper operation when using an internal or external reference, itis necessary to add a capacitor network to decouple these pins.Figure 11b shows the recommended decoupling network. Theturn-on time of the reference voltage appearing between CAPTand CAPB is approximately 10 ms and should be evaluated inany power-down mode of operation.

USING THE INTERNAL REFERENCEThe AD9226 can be easily configured for either a 1 V p-p inputspan or 2 V p-p input span by setting the internal reference.Other input spans can be realized with two external gain-setting resistors as shown in Figure 12 of this data sheet, orusing an external reference.

Pin Programmable ReferenceBy shorting the VREF pin directly to the SENSE pin, the inter-nal reference amplifier is placed in a unity-gain mode and theresultant VREF output is 1 V. By shorting the SENSE pindirectly to the REFCOM pin, the internal reference amplifier isconfigured for a gain of 2.0 and the resultant VREF output is2.0 V. The VREF pin should be bypassed to the REFCOM pinwith a 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a low-inductance0.1 µF ceramic capacitor as shown in Figure 11b.

Resistor Programmable ReferenceFigure 12 shows an example of how to generate a referencevoltage other than 1.0 V or 2.0 V with the addition of two exter-nal resistors. Use the equation,

VREF = 1 V × (1 + R1/R2)

to determine appropriate values for R1 and R2. These resistorsshould be in the 2 kΩ to 10 kΩ range. For the example shown,R1 equals 2.5 kΩ and R2 equals 5 kΩ. From the equation above,the resultant reference voltage on the VREF pin is 1.5 V. Thissets the input span to be 1.5 V p-p. The midscale voltage canalso be set to VREF by connecting VINB to VREF. Alterna-tively, the midscale voltage can be set to 2.5 V by connectingVINB to a low-impedance 2.5 V source as shown in Figure 12.

USING AN EXTERNAL REFERENCEThe AD9226 contains an internal reference buffer, A2 (seeFigure 11b), that simplifies the drive requirements of an externalreference. The external reference must be able to drive about5 kΩ (±20%) load. Note that the bandwidth of the referencebuffer is deliberately left small to minimize the reference noisecontribution. As a result, it is not possible to rapidly change thereference voltage in this mode.

Figure 13 shows an example of an external reference drivingboth VINB and VREF. In this case, both the common-modevoltage and input span are directly dependent on the value ofVREF. Both the input span and the center of the input span areequal to the external VREF. Thus the valid input range extendsfrom (VREF + VREF/2) to (VREF – VREF/2). For example,if the REF191, a 2.048 V external reference, is selected, theinput span extends to 2.048 V. In this case, 1 LSB of the AD9226corresponds to 0.5 mV. It is essential that a minimum of a 10 µFcapacitor, in parallel with a 0.1 µF low-inductance ceramiccapacitor, decouple the reference output to ground.

To use an external reference, the SENSE pin must be connectedto AVDD. This connection will disable the internal reference.

MODE CONTROLSClock StabilizerThe clock stabilizer is a circuit that desensitizes the ADC fromclock duty cycle variations. The AD9226 eases system clockconstraints by incorporating a circuit that restores the internal dutycycle to 50%, independent of the input duty cycle. Low jitter onthe rising edge (sampling edge) of the clock is preserved whilethe noncritical falling edge is generated on-chip.

It may be desirable to disable the clock stabilizer, and may benecessary when the clock frequency speed is varied or completelystopped. Once the clock frequency is changed, over 100 clockcycles may be required for the clock stabilizer to settle to a dif-ferent speed. When the stabilizer is disabled, the internal switchingwill be directly affected by the clock state. If the external clock ishigh, the SHA will be in hold. If the clock pulse is low, the SHAwill be in track. TPC 16 shows the benefits of using the clockstabilizer. See Tables I and III.

Data Format Select (DFS)The AD9226 may be set for binary or two’s complement dataoutput formats. See Tables I and II.

SSOP PackageThe SSOP mode control (Pin 22) has two functions. It enables/disables the clock stabilizer and determines the output data format.The exact functions of the mode pin are outlined in Table I.

Out of Range (OTR)An out-of-range condition exists when the analog input voltageis beyond the input range of the converter. OTR is a digitaloutput that is updated along with the data output correspondingto the particular sampled analog input voltage. Hence, OTR hasthe same pipeline delay (latency) as the digital data. It is LOWwhen the analog input voltage is within the analog input range.It is HIGH when the analog input voltage exceeds the inputrange as shown in Figure 14. OTR will remain HIGH until theanalog input returns within the input range and another conversionis completed. By logical ANDing OTR with the MSB and itscomplement, overrange high or underrange low conditions can bedetected. Table V is a truth table for the over/underrangecircuit in Figure 15, which uses NAND gates. Systems requiringprogrammable gain conditioning of the AD9226 input signalcan immediately detect an out-of-range condition, thus elimi-nating gain selection iterations. Also, OTR can be used fordigital offset and gain calibration.

Digital Output Driver ConsiderationsThe AD9226 output drivers can be configured to interface with5 V or 3.3 V logic families by setting DRVDD to 5 V or 3.3 Vrespectively. The output drivers are sized to provide sufficientoutput current to drive a wide variety of logic families. However,large drive currents tend to cause glitches on the supplies and mayaffect converter performance. Applications requiring the ADC todrive large capacitive loads or large fan outs may require externalbuffers or latches.

OEB Function (Three-State)The LQFP-packaged AD9226 has Three-State (OEB) ability. Ifthe OEB pin is held low, the output data drivers are enabled. Ifthe OEB pin is high, the output data drivers are placed in a highimpedance state. It is not intended for rapid access to buss.

Clock Input ConsiderationsHigh-speed, high-resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality ofthe clock input. The clock input should be treated as an analogsignal in cases where aperture jitter may affect the dynamicperformance of the AD9226. Power supplies for clock driversshould be separated from the ADC output driver supplies toavoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise. Low-jittercrystal controlled oscillators make the best clock sources.

The quality of the clock input, particularly the rising edge, iscritical in realizing the best possible jitter performance of thepart. Faster rising edges often have less jitter.

Clock Input and Power DissipationMost of the power dissipated by the AD9226 is from the analogpower supplies. However, lower clock speeds will reduce digitalcurrent. Figure 16 shows the relationship between power andclock rate.

GROUNDING AND DECOUPLINGAnalog and Digital GroundingProper grounding is essential in any high-speed, high-resolutionsystem. Multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs) are recom-mended to provide optimal grounding and power schemes. Theuse of ground and power planes offers distinct advantages:

1. The minimization of the loop area encompassed by a signaland its return path.

2. The minimization of the impedance associated with groundand power paths.

3. The inherent distributed capacitor formed by the powerplane, PCB insulation, and ground plane.

It is important to design a layout that prevents noise from cou-pling onto the input signal. Digital signals should not be run inparallel with input signal traces and should be routed away fromthe input circuitry. While the AD9226 features separate analogand driver ground pins, it should be treated as an analog com-ponent. The AVSS and DRVSS pins must be joined togetherdirectly under the AD9226. A solid ground plane under theADC is acceptable if the power and ground return currents arecarefully managed.

Analog and Digital Driver Supply DecouplingThe AD9226 features separate analog and digital supply andground pins, helping to minimize digital corruption of sensitiveanalog signals. In general, AVDD (analog power) should bedecoupled to AVSS (analog ground). The AVDD and AVSSpins are adjacent to one another. Also, DRVDD (digital power)should be decoupled to DRVDD (digital ground). The decouplingcapacitors (especially 0.1 µF) should be located as close to thepins as possible. Figure 17 shows the recommended decouplingfor the pair of analog supplies; 0.1 µF ceramic chip and 10 µFtantalum capacitors should provide adequately low impedanceover a wide frequency range.

VRVR is an internal bias point on the LQFP package. It must bedecoupled to ground with a 0.1 µF capacitor.

The digital activity on the AD9226 chip falls into two generalcategories: correction logic and output drivers. The internalcorrection logic draws relatively small surges of current, mainlyduring the clock transitions. The output drivers draw largecurrent impulses while the output bits are changing. The sizeand duration of these currents are a function of the load on theoutput bits: large capacitive loads are to be avoided.

For the digital decoupling shown in Figure 19, 0.1 µF ceramicchip and 10 µF tantalum capacitors are appropriate. Reason-able capacitive loads on the data pins are less than 20 pF perbit. Applications involving greater digital loads should considerincreasing the digital decoupling proportionally and/or usingexternal buffers/latches.

A complete decoupling scheme will also include large tantalumor electrolytic capacitors on the power supply connector toreduce low-frequency ripple to negligible levels.

EVALUATION BOARD AND TYPICAL BENCHCHARACTERIZATION TEST SETUPThe AD9226 evaluation board is configured to operate uponapplying both power and the analog and clock input signals. Itprovides three possible analog input interfaces to characterizethe AD9226’s ac and dc performance. For ac characterization, itprovides a transformer coupled input with the common-modeinput voltage (CMV) set to AVDD/2. Note, the evaluationboard is shipped with a transformer coupled interface and a 2 Vinput span. For differential dc coupled applications, the evalua-tion board has provisions to be driven by the AD8138 amplifier.If a single-ended input is desired, it may be driven through theS3 connector. The various input signal options are accessible bythe jumper connections. Refer to the Evaluation Board schematic.

The clock input signal to the AD9226 evaluation board can beapplied to one of two inputs, CLOCK and AUXCLK. TheCLOCK input should be selected if the frequency of the inputclock signal is at the target sample rate of the AD9226. Theinput clock signal is ac-coupled and level-shifted to the switch-ing threshold of a 74VHC02 clock driver. The AUXCLK inputshould be selected in applications requiring the lowest jitter andSNR performance (i.e., IF Undersampling characterization). Itallows the user to apply a clock input signal that is 4× the targetsample rate of the AD9226. A low-jitter, differential divide-by-4counter, the MC100EL33D, provides a 1× clock output that issubsequently returned back to the CLOCK input via JP7. Forexample, a 260 MHz signal (sinusoid) will be divided down toa 65 MHz signal for clocking the ADC. Note, R1 must beremoved with the AUXCLK interface. Lower jitter is oftenachieved with this interface since many RF signal generatorsdisplay improved phase noise at higher output frequencies andthe slew rate of the sinusoidal output signal is 4× that of a 1×signal of equal amplitude.

Figure 20 shows the bench characterization setup used to evalu-ate the AD9226’s ac performance for many of the data sheetcharacterization curves. Signal and Clock RF generators A andB are high-frequency, “very” low-phase noise frequency sources.These generators should be phase locked by sharing the same10 MHz REF signal (located on the instruments back panel) toallow for nonwindowed, coherent FFTs. Also, the AUXCLKoption on the AD9226 evaluation board should be used toachieve the best SNR performance. Since the distortion andbroadband noise of an RF generator can often be a limitingfactor in measuring the true performance of an ADC, a high Qpassive bandpass filter should be inserted between the generatorand AD9226 evaluation board.
