The LTC®2274 is a 105Msps, 16-bit A/D converter with
a high speed serial interface. It is designed for digitizing
high frequency, wide dynamic range signals with an input
bandwidth of 700MHz. The input range of the ADC can
be optimized using the PGA front end. The output data is
serialized according to the JEDEC Serial Interface for Data
Converters specification (JESD204).
The LTC2274 is perfect for demanding applications where
it is desirable to isolate the sensitive analog circuits from
the noisy digital logic. The AC performance includes a
77.7dB Noise Floor and 100dB spurious free dynamic range
(SFDR). Ultra low internal jitter of 80fs RMS allows undersampling of high input frequencies with excellent noise
performance. Maximum DC specs include ±4.5LSB INL
and ±1LSB DNL (no missing codes) over temperature.
The encode clock inputs, ENC+ and ENC–, may be driven
differentially or single-ended with a sine wave, PECL,
LVDS, TTL or CMOS inputs. A clock duty cycle stabilizer
allows high performance at full speed with a wide range
of clock duty cycles.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltage values are with respect to GND (unless otherwise
noted).
Note 3: When these pin voltages are taken below GND or above VDD, they
will be clamped by internal diodes. This product can handle input currents
of greater than 100mA below GND or above VDD without latchup.
Note 4: VDD = 3.3V, fSAMPLE = 105MHz differential ENC+/ENC– = 2VP-P sine
wave with 1.6V common mode, input range = 2.25VP-P with differential
drive (PGA = 0), unless otherwise specified.
Note 5: Integral nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of a code from
a “best fit straight line” to the transfer curve. The deviation is measured
from the center of the quantization band.

Note 7: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 8: VDD = 3.3V, fSAMPLE = 105MHz input range = 2.25VP-P with
differential drive.
Note 9: Recommended operating conditions.
Note 10: The dynamic current of the switched capacitors analog inputs
can be large compared to the leakage current and will vary with the sample
rate.
Note 11: Leakage current will have higher transient current at power up.
Keep drive resistance at or below 1k.

DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE TERMS
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion Ratio
The ratio of the RMS input signal amplitude to the RMS
value of the peak spurious spectral component expressed
in dBc. SFDR may also be calculated relative to full scale
and expressed in dBFS.
The signal-to-noise plus distortion ratio [S/(N+D)] is the
ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input
frequency and the RMS amplitude of all other frequency
components at the ADC output. The output is band limited to frequencies above DC to below half the sampling
frequency.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
Full Power Bandwidth
The full power bandwidth is that input frequency at which
the amplitude of the reconstructed fundamental is reduced
by 3dB for a full scale input signal.
The signal-to-noise (SNR) is the ratio between the RMS
amplitude of the fundamental input frequency and the RMS
amplitude of all other frequency components, except the
first five harmonics.
The time from when a rising ENC+ equals the ENC– voltage
to the instant that the input signal is held by the sampleand-hold circuit.
Total Harmonic Distortion
Aperture Delay Jitter
Total harmonic distortion is the ratio of the RMS sum
of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental
itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency
band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD
is expressed as:
The variation in the aperture delay time from conversion
to conversion. This random variation will result in noise
when sampling an AC input. The signal to noise ratio due
to the jitter alone will be:
THD = –20Log (√(V22 + V32 + V42 + ... VN2)/V1)
Aperture Delay Time
SNRJITTER = –20log (2π • fIN • tJITTER)
where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental frequency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the second
through nth harmonics.
SERIAL INTERFACE TERMS
Intermodulation Distortion
A data encoding method designed to make an 8-bit data
word (octet) more suitable for serial transmission. The
resulting 10-bit word (code-group) has two fundamental
strengths: 1) The receiver does not require a high-speed
clock to capture the data. This is because the output
code-groups are run-length limited, ensuring that there
are enough transitions in the bit stream for the receiver
to lock onto the data and recover the high-speed clock.
2) AC coupling is permitted because the code-groups are
generated in a way that ensures the data stream is DC
balanced (see Running Disparity).
If the ADC input signal consists of more than one spectral
component, the ADC transfer function nonlinearity can
produce intermodulation distortion (IMD) in addition to
THD. IMD is the change in one sinusoidal input caused
by the presence of another sinusoidal input at a different
frequency.
If two pure sine waves of frequencies fa and fb are applied
to the ADC input, nonlinearities in the ADC transfer function
can create distortion products at the sum and difference
frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where m and n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.
For example, the 3rd order IMD terms include (2fa + fb),
(fa + 2fb), (2fa - fb) and (fa - 2fb). The 3rd order IMD is
defined as the ratio of the RMS value of either input tone
to the RMS value of the largest 3rd order IMD product.
8B/10B Encoding
A table of the 256 possible input octets with the resulting
10-bit code-groups is documented in IEEE Std 802.3-2002
part3 Table 36-1. The name associated with each of the
256 data code-groups is formatted Dx.y, with x ranging
from 0 to 31 and y ranging from 0 to 7. Table 36-2 of
2274f
14
LTC2274
DEFINITIONS
the standard defines an additional set of 12 special codegroups for non-data characters such as commas. Special
code-group names begin with K instead of D. A complete
8B/10B description is found in Clause 36.2 of IEEE Std
802.3-2002 part3.
when the average number of 1’s and 0’s are equal, eliminating the undesirable effects of DC wander on the receive
side of the coupling capacitor. When 8B/10B coding is
used, DC balance is achieved by following disparity rules
(see Running Disparity).
Current Mode Logic (CML)
De-Scrambler
A technique used to implement differential high-speed logic.
CML employs differential pairs (usually n-type) to steer
current into resistive loads. It is possible to implement any
logic function using CML. The output swing and offset is
dependant on the bias current, the load resistance, and
termination resistance.
A logic block that restores scrambled data to its prescrambled state. A self aligning de-scrambler is based on
the same pseudo random bit sequence as the scrambler,
so it requires no alignment signals. In this product family
the scrambler is based on the 1 + x14 + x15 polynomial,
and the self aligning process results in an initial loss of
one ADC sample.
This product family uses CML drivers to transmit highspeed serial data to the outside world. The output driver
bias current is typically 16mA, generating a signal swing
potential of 400mVP-P (800mVP-P diff.) across the combined internal and external termination resistance of 25Ω
on each output.
Frame
A group of octets or code-groups that make up one
complete word. For this product family, a frame consists
of two complete octets or code-groups, and constitutes
one ADC sample.
Code-Group
The 10-bit output from an 8B/10B encoder or the 10-bit
input to the 8B/10B decoder.
Comma
A special 8B/10B code-group containing the binary sequence “0011111” or “1100000”. Commas are used for
frame alignment and synchronization because a comma
sequence cannot be generated by any combination of
normal code-groups (unless a bit error occurs). There are
three special code-groups that contain a comma, K28.1,
K28.5, and K28.7.
For brevity, each of these three special code-groups are
often called a comma, but in the strictest sense it is the
first 7 bits of these code-groups that are designated a
comma.
DC Balanced Signal
A specially conditioned signal that may be AC coupled with
minimal degradation to the signal. DC balance is achieved
Frame Alignment Monitoring (FAM)
After initial frame synchronization has been established,
frame alignment monitoring enables the receiver to verify
that code-group alignment is maintained without the loss
of data. This is done by substituting a K28.7 comma for the
last code-group of the frame when certain conditions are
met. The receiver uses this comma as a position marker
within the frame for alignment verification. After decoding
the data, the receiver replaces the K28.7 comma with the
original data.
Idle Frame Synchronization Mode (ISMODE)
A special synchronization mode where idle ordered sets
are used to establish initial frame synchronization instead
of K28.5 commas.
An Idle Ordered Set is defined in the IEEE Std 802.3-2002
part3, Clause 36.2.4.12. In general, it is a K28.5 comma
followed by either a D5.6 or a D16.2. If the running disparity after the transmission of the K28.5 comma is positive,
2274f
15
LTC2274
DEFINITIONS
a D16.2 will be transmitted after the comma, otherwise
a D5.6 will be transmitted. The result is that the ending
disparity of an idle ordered set will always be negative.
running disparity is calculated to determine which of the
two code-groups should be transmitted to maintain DC
balance.
Initial Frame Synchronization
The disparity of a code-group is analyzed in two segments
called sub-blocks. Sub-block1 consists of the first six bits
of a code-group and sub-block2 consists of the last four
bits of a code-group. When a sub-block is more heavily
weighted with 1’s the running disparity is positive, and when
it is more heavily weighted with 0’s the running disparity
is negative. When the number of 1’s and 0’s are equal in a
sub-block, the running disparity remains unchanged.
The process of communicating frame synchronization
information to the receiver upon the request of the receiver.
For JESD204 compliance, K28.5 commas are transmitted
as the preamble. Once the preamble has been detected
the receiver terminates the synchronization request, and
the preamble transmission continues until the end of the
frame. The receiver designates the first normal data word
after the preamble to be the start of the data frame.
Octet
The 8-bit input to an 8B/10B encoder, or the 8-bit output
from an 8B/10B decoder.
Run-Length Limited (RLL)
The act of limiting the number of consecutive 1’s or 0’s
in a data stream by encoding the data prior to serial
transmission.
This process guarantees that there will be an adequate
number of transitions in the serial data for the receiver
to lock onto with a phase-locked loop and recover the
high-speed clock.
Running Disparity
In order to maintain DC balance there are two possible
8B/10B output code-groups for each input octet. The
The polarity of the current running disparity determines
which code-group should be transmitted to maintain DC
balance. For a complete description of disparity rules, refer
to IEEE Std 802.3-2002 part3, Clause 36.2.4.4.
Pseudo Random Bit Sequence (PRBS)
A data sequence having a random nature over a finite
interval. The most commonly used PRBS test patterns
may be described by a polynomial in the form of 1 + xm +
xn and have a random nature for the length of up to 2n – 1
bits, where n indicates the order of the PRBS polynomial
and m plays a role in maximizing the length of the random
sequence.
Scrambler
A logic block that applies a pseudo random bit sequence
to the input octets to minimize the tonal content of the
high-speed serial bit stream.

LTC2274
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CONVERTER OPERATION
The core of the LTC2274 is a CMOS pipelined multi-step
converter with a front-end PGA. As shown in Figure 1, the
converter has five pipelined ADC stages. A sampled analog
input will result in a digitized value nine clock cycles later
(see the Timing Diagram section). The analog input (AIN+,
AIN–) is differential for improved common mode noise immunity and to maximize the input range. Additionally, the
differential input drive will reduce even order harmonics
of the sample and hold circuit. The encode clock input
(ENC+, ENC–) is also differential for improved common
mode noise immunity.
Each pipelined stage shown in Figure 1 contains an ADC,
a reconstruction DAC, and an error residue amplifier. The
function of each stage is to produce a digital representation
of its input voltage along with the resulting analog error
residue. The ADC of each stage provides the quantization,
and the residue is produced by taking the difference between
the input voltage and the output of the reconstruction DAC.
The residue is amplified by the residue amplifier and passed
on to the next stage. The successive stages of the pipeline
operate on alternating phases of the clock so that when
odd stages are outputting their residue, the even stages
are acquiring that residue and vice versa.
The pipelined ADC of the LTC2274 has two phases of
operation determined by the state of the differential
ENC+/ENC– input pins. For brevity, the text will refer to
ENC+ greater than ENC– as ENC high and ENC+ less than
ENC– as ENC low.
When ENC is low, the analog input is sampled differentially
onto the input sample-and-hold capacitors, inside the “S/H
& PGA” block of Figure 1. On the rising edge of ENC, the
voltage on the sample capacitors is held. While ENC is
high, the held input voltage is buffered by the S/H amplifier
which drives the first pipelined ADC stage. The first stage
acquires the output of the S/H amplifier during the high
phase of ENC. On the falling edge of ENC, the first stage
produces its residue which is acquired by the second stage.
The process continues to the end of the pipeline.
Each ADC stage following the first has additional error
correction range to accommodate flash and amplifier offset
errors. Results from all of the ADC stages are digitally
delayed such that the results can be properly combined
in the correction logic before being encoded, serialized,
and sent to the output buffer.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SAMPLE/HOLD OPERATION AND INPUT DRIVE
Input Drive Impedance
Sample/Hold Operation
As with all high performance, high speed ADCs the dynamic performance of the LTC2274 can be influenced
by the input drive circuitry, particularly the second and
third harmonics. Source impedance and input reactance
can influence SFDR. At the falling edge of ENC the
sample-and-hold circuit will connect the 4.9pF sampling
capacitor to the input pin and start the sampling period.
The sampling period ends when ENC rises, holding the
sampled input on the sampling capacitor. Ideally, the
input circuitry should be fast enough to fully charge
the sampling capacitor during the sampling period
1/(2FENCODE); however, this is not always possible and the
incomplete settling may degrade the SFDR. The sampling
glitch has been designed to be as linear as possible to
minimize the effects of incomplete settling.
Figure 2 shows an equivalent circuit for the LTC2274 CMOS
differential sample and hold. The differential analog inputs
are sampled directly onto sampling capacitors (CSAMPLE)
through NMOS transistors. The capacitors shown attached
to each input (CPARASITIC) are the summation of all other
capacitance associated with each input.
During the sample phase when ENC is low, the NMOS
transistors connect the analog inputs to the sampling
capacitors and they charge to, and track, the differential
input voltage. On the rising edge of ENC, the sampled
input voltage is held on the sampling capacitors. During
the hold phase when ENC is high, the sampling capacitors
are disconnected from the input and the held voltage is
passed to the ADC core for processing. As ENC transitions
for high to low, the inputs are reconnected to the sampling
capacitors to acquire a new sample. Since the sampling
capacitors still hold the previous sample, a charging glitch
proportional to the change in voltage between samples will
be seen at this time. If the change between the last sample
and the new sample is small, the charging glitch seen at
the input will be small. If the input change is large, such
as the change seen with input frequencies near Nyquist,
then a larger charging glitch will be seen.
For the best performance it is recommended to have a
source impedance of 100Ω or less for each input. The
source impedance should be matched for the differential
inputs. Poor matching will result in higher even order
harmonics, especially the second.

Common Mode Bias
The ADC sample-and-hold circuit requires differential drive
to achieve specified performance. Each input should swing
±0.5625V for the 2.25V range (PGA = 0) or ±0.375V for
the 1.5V range (PGA = 1), around a common mode voltage of 1.25V. The VCM output pin (Pin 39) is designed to
provide the common mode bias level. VCM can be tied
directly to the center tap of a transformer to set the DC
input level or as a reference level to an op amp differential
driver circuit. The VCM pin must be bypassed to ground
close to the ADC with 2.2μF or greater.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
INPUT DRIVE CIRCUITS
Input Filtering
A first order RC lowpass filter at the input of the ADC can
serve two functions: limit the noise from input circuitry and
provide isolation from ADC S/H switching. The LTC2274
has a very broadband S/H circuit, DC to 700MHz; it can
be used in a wide range of applications; therefore, it is not
possible to provide a single recommended RC filter.
Figures 3, 4a and 4b show three examples of input RC
filtering at three ranges of input frequencies. In general
it is desirable to make the capacitors as large as can be
tolerated—this will help suppress random noise as well
as noise coupled from the digital circuitry. The LTC2274
does not require any input filter to achieve data sheet
specifications; however, no filtering will put more stringent
noise requirements on the input drive circuitry.
the input bandwidth and increase high frequency distortion. A disadvantage of using a transformer is the loss of
low frequency response. Most small RF transformers have
poor performance at frequencies below 1MHz.
Center-tapped transformers provide a convenient means
of DC biasing the secondary; however, they often show
poor balance at high input frequencies, resulting in large
2nd order harmonics.
Figure 4a shows transformer coupling using a transmission line balun transformer. This type of transformer has
much better high frequency response and balance than
flux coupled center tap transformers. Coupling capacitors
are added at the ground and input primary terminals to
allow the secondary terminals to be biased at 1.25V. Figure
4b shows the same circuit with components suitable for
higher input frequencies.

ratio transformer. Other turns ratios can be used; however,
as the turns ratio increases so does the impedance seen by
the ADC. Source impedance greater than 50Ω can reduce

LTC2274
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Direct Coupled Circuits
Figure 5 demonstrates the use of a differential amplifier to
convert a single ended input signal into a differential input
signal. The advantage of this method is that it provides
low frequency input response; however, the limited gain
bandwidth of any op amp or closed-loop amplifier will degrade the ADC SFDR at high input frequencies. Additionally,
wideband op amps or differential amplifiers tend to have
high noise. As a result, the SNR will be degraded unless
the noise bandwidth is limited prior to the ADC input.
Reference Operation
Figure 6 shows the LTC2274 reference circuitry consisting
of a 2.5V bandgap reference, a programmable gain amplifier and control circuit. The LTC2274 has three modes of
reference operation: Internal Reference, 1.25V external
reference or 2.5V external reference. To use the internal
reference, tie the SENSE pin to VDD. To use an external
reference, simply apply either a 1.25V or 2.5V reference
voltage to the SENSE input pin. Both 1.25V and 2.5V applied
to SENSE will result in a full scale range of 2.25VP-P (PGA
= 0). A 1.25V output VCM is provided for a common mode
bias for input drive circuitry. An external bypass capacitor is
required for the VCM output. This provides a high frequency
low impedance path to ground for internal and external
circuitry. This is also the compensation capacitor for the
reference; it will not be stable without this capacitor. The
minimum value required for stability is 2.2μF.
The internal programmable gain amplifier provides the
internal reference voltage for the ADC. This amplifier has
very stringent settling requirements and is not accessible
for external use.
The SENSE pin can be driven ±5% around the nominal 2.5V
or 1.25V external reference inputs. This adjustment range
can be used to trim the ADC gain error or other system
gain errors. When selecting the internal reference, the
SENSE pin should be tied to VDD as close to the converter
as possible. If the sense pin is driven externally it should
be bypassed to ground as close to the device as possible
with 1μF (or larger) ceramic capacitor.
PGA Pin
The PGA pin selects between two gain settings for
the ADC front-end. PGA = 0 selects an input range of
2.25VP-P; PGA = 1 selects an input range of 1.5VP-P. The
2.25V input range has the best SNR; however, the distortion will be higher for input frequencies above 100MHz.
For applications with high input frequencies, the low
input range will have improved distortion; however, the
SNR will be 2.4dB worse. See the Typical Performance
Characteristics section of this datasheet.

LTC2274
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Driving the Encode Inputs
The noise performance of the LTC2274 can depend on
the encode signal quality as much as for the analog input.
The encode inputs are intended to be driven differentially,
primarily for noise immunity from common mode noise
sources. Each input is biased through a 6k resistor to a
1.6V bias. The bias resistors set the DC operating point
for transformer coupled drive circuits and can set the logic
threshold for single-ended drive circuits.
Any noise present on the encode signal will result in additional aperture jitter that will be RMS summed with the
inherent ADC aperture jitter.
In applications where jitter is critical (high input frequencies), take the following into consideration:
1. Differential drive should be used.
2. Use as large an amplitude possible. If using transformer coupling, use a higher turns ratio to increase the
amplitude.
3. If the ADC is clocked with a fixed frequency sinusoidal
signal, filter the encode signal to reduce wideband
noise.
4. Balance the capacitance and series resistance at both
encode inputs such that any coupled noise will appear
at both inputs as common mode noise.
The encode inputs have a common mode range of 1.2V
to VDD. Each input may be driven from ground to VDD for
single-ended drive.
Maximum and Minimum Conversion Rates
The maximum conversion rate is 105Msps for the
LTC2274.
The lower limit of the LTC2274 sample rate is determined
by the PLL minimum operating frequency of 20Msps.
For the ADC to operate properly, the internal CLK signal
should have a 50% duty cycle. A duty cycle stabilizer circuit has been implemented on chip to facilitate non-50%
ENC duty cycles.
Data Format
The MSBINV pin selects the ADC data format. A low level
selects offset binary format (code 0 corresponds to –FS, and
code 65535 corresponds to +FS). A high level on MSBINV
selects 2’s complement format (code –32768 corresponds
to –FS and code 32767 corresponds to +FS.
Shutdown
A high level on both SHDN pins will shutdown the ADC
and the serial interface and place the chip in a low current state.
Internal Dither
The LTC2274 is a 16-bit ADC with a very linear transfer
function; however, at low input levels even slight imperfections in the transfer function will result in unwanted tones.
Small errors in the transfer function are usually a result
of ADC element mismatches. An optional internal dither
mode can be enabled to randomize the input location on
the ADC transfer curve, resulting in improved SFDR for
low signal levels.
As shown in Figure 11, the output of the sample-and-hold
amplifier is summed with the output of a dither DAC. The
dither DAC is driven by a long sequence pseudo-random
number generator; the random number fed to the dither
DAC is also subtracted digitally from the ADC result. If the
dither DAC is precisely calibrated to the ADC, very little
of the dither signal will be seen at the output. The dither
signal that does leak through will appear as white noise.
The dither DAC is calibrated to result in less than 0.5dB
elevation in the noise floor of the ADC, as compared to
the noise floor with dither off.

SERIALIZED DATA FRAME
Figure 12 illustrates the generation of one complete 8B/10B
frame. The 8 most significant bits of the ADC are assigned
to the first half of the frame, and the remaining 8 bits
to the second half of the frame. Next, the two resulting
octets are optionally scrambled and encoded into their
corresponding 8B/10B code. Finally, the two 10-bit code
groups are serialized and transmitted beginning with Bit
0 of code group 1.
Prior to serialization, the ADC data is encoded into the
8B/10B format, which is DC balanced, and run-length
limited. The receiver is required to lock onto the data
and recover the clock with the use of a PLL. The 8B/10B
format requires that the ADC data be broken up into 8-bit
blocks (octets), which is encoded into 10-bit code groups
applying the 8B/10B rules (refer to IEEE Std 802.3-2002
Part 3, for a complete 8B/10B description).

Initial Frame Synchronization
In the absence of a frame clock, it is necessary to determine the start of each frame through a synchronization
process. To establish frame synchronization, Figures 14
and 15 illustrate the following sequence:
• The receiver issues a synchronization request via the
synchronization interface.
• If the synchronization request is active for more than
one ENC clock cycle, the LTC2274 will transmit a
synchronization preamble. When the ISMODE pin is
low the transmitted preamble will consist of consecutive K28.5 comma symbols in conformance with the
JESD204 specification. When the ISMODE pin is high,
a series of idle ordered sets will be transmitted. The
idle ordered sets consist of a K28.5 comma followed by
either D5.6 or D16.2 as defined in IEEE Std 802.3-2002
part3, Clause 36.2.4.12.
• The receiver searches for the expected preamble and
waits for the correct reception of an adequate number
of preamble characters.
• The receiver deactivates the synchronization request.
• Upon detecting the deactivation of the synchronization request, the LTC2274 continues to transmit the
synchronization preamble until the end of the frame.
• At the start of the next frame, the LTC2274 will begin
transmitting data characters.
• The receiver designates the first data character received
after the preamble transmission to be the start of the
frame. The first octet of the frame contains the most
significant byte of the ADC’s output word.

Scrambling
To avoid spectral interference from the serial data output,
an optional data scrambler is added between the ADC
data and the 8B/10B encoder to randomize the spectrum
of the serial link. The scrambler is enabled by setting the
SCRAM pin to a high logic level. The polynomial used for
the scrambler is 1 + x14 + x15, which is a pseudo-random
pattern repeating itself every 215–1. Figure 16 illustrates
the LTC2274 implementation of this polynomial in parallel
form.
The scrambled data is converted into two valid 8B/10B
code groups, constituting a complete frame. The 8B/10B
code groups are then serialized and transmitted.
The receiver is required to deserialize the data, decode
the code-groups into octets and descramble them back
to the original octets using the self-aligning descrambler
shown in Figure 17. This descrambler is shown in 16-bit
parallel form, which is an efficient implementation of the
(1 + x14 + x15) polynomial, operating at the frame clock
rate (ADC sample rate).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Frame Alignment Monitoring
After the initial synchronization has been established, it may
be desirable to periodically verify that frame alignment is
being maintained. The receiver may issue a synchronization request at any time, but data will be lost during the
resynchronization interval.
To verify frame alignment without the loss of data, frame
alignment monitoring is enabled by setting the FAM pin
to a high level. In this mode, predetermined data in the
second code group of the frame is substituted with the
control character K28.7. The receiver is required to detect
the K28.7 character and replace it with the original data. In
this way, the second code group may be discerned from
the first, and the receiver is able to periodically verify the
frame alignment without the loss of data (refer to Table 1
and the flow diagram of Figure 18). There are two frame
alignment monitoring modes summarized in Table 1.
FAM mode 1 is implemented when FAM is high, and
SCRAM is low:
• When the data in the second code group of the current
frame equals the data in the second code group of the
previous frame, the LTC2274 will replace the second
code group with the control character K28.7 before
serialization. However, if a K28.7 symbol was already
transmitted in the previous frame, the actual code group
will be transmitted.
• Upon receiving a K28.7 symbol, the receiver is required
to replace it with the data decoded at the same position
of the previous frame.
FAM mode 2 is implemented when FAM is high and
SCRAM is high:
• When the data in the second code group of the current
frame equals D28.7, the LTC2274 will replace this data
with K28.7 before serialization.
• Upon receiving a K28.7 symbol, the receiver is required
to replace it with D28.7.
With FAM enabled the receiver is required to search for
the presence of K28.7 symbols in the data stream. If two
successive K28.7 symbols are detected at the same position other than the assumed end of frame, the receiver will
realign its frame boundary to the new position.

PLL Operation
Serial Test Patterns
The PLL has been designed to accommodate a wide range
of sample rates. The SRR0 and SRR1 pins are used to
configure the PLL for the intended sample rate range.
Table 2 summarizes the sample clock ranges available
to the user.
To facilitate testing of the serial interface, three test patterns
are selectable via pins PAT0 and PAT1. The available test
patterns are described in Table 3. A K28.5 comma may be
used as a fourth test pattern by requesting synchronization
through the SYNC+/SYNC– pins.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
High Speed CML Outputs
Grounding and Bypassing
The CML outputs must be terminated for proper operation. The OVDD supply voltage and the termination voltage
determine the common mode output level of the CML
outputs. For proper operation of the CML driver, the output
common mode voltage should be greater than 1V.
The LTC2274 require a printed circuit board with a
clean unbroken ground plane; a multilayer board with an
internal ground plane is recommended. The pinout of the
LTC2274 has been optimized for a flowthrough layout so
that the interaction between inputs and digital outputs is
minimized. Layout for the printed circuit board should
ensure that digital and analog signal lines are separated as
much as possible. In particular, care should be taken not
to run any digital track alongside an analog signal track
or underneath the ADC.
The directly-coupled termination mode of Figure 19a is
recommended when the receiver termination voltage is
within the range of 1.2V to 3.3V. When the CML outputs
are directly-coupled to the 50Ω termination resistors, the
OVDD supply voltage serves as the receiver termination
voltage, and the output common mode voltage will be
approximately 200mV lower than OVDD.
The directly-coupled differential termination of Figure 19b
may be used in the absence of a receiver termination voltage
within the required range. In this case, the common mode
voltage is shifted down to approximately 400mV below
OVDD, requiring an OVDD in the range of 1.4V to 3.3V.
If the serial receiver’s common mode input requirements
are not compatible with the directly-coupled termination
modes, the DC balanced 8B/10B encoded data will permit
the addition of DC blocking capacitors as shown in Figure
19c. In this AC-coupled mode, the termination voltage is
determined by the receiver’s requirements. The coupling
capacitors should be selected appropriately for the intended
operating bit-rate, usually between 1nF to 10nF. In the ACcoupled mode, the output common mode voltage will be
approximately 400mV below OVDD, so the OVDD supply
voltage should be in the range of 1.4V to 3.3V.
High quality ceramic bypass capacitors should be used
at the VDD, VCM, and OVDD pins. Bypass capacitors must
be located as close to the pins as possible. The traces
connecting the pins and bypass capacitors must be kept
short and should be made as wide as possible.
The LTC2274 differential inputs should run parallel and
close to each other. The input traces should be as short
as possible to minimize capacitance and to minimize
noise pickup.
Heat Transfer
Most of the heat generated by the LTC2274 is transferred
from the die through the bottom-side exposed pad. For
good electrical and thermal performance, the exposed
pad must be soldered to a large grounded pad on the PC
board. It is critical that the exposed pad and all ground
pins are connected to a ground plane of sufficient area
with as many vias as possible.
