The exposed pad (EPAD) must be soldered to the ground plane
(AVSS) for the 72-lead LFCSP. The EPAD provides an electrical,
thermal, and mechanical connection to the board.
Typical θJA, θJB, and θJC values are specified for a 4-layer board in
still air. Airflow increases heat dissipation, effectively reducing
θJA and θJB.

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
INL is the maximum deviation of the actual analog output from
the ideal output, determined by a straight line drawn from zero
scale to full scale.
Settling Time
Settling time is the time required for the output to reach and
remain within a specified error band around its final value,
measured from the start of the output transition.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
DNL is the measure of the variation in analog value, normalized
to full scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input code.
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference, in decibels, between the peak amplitude
of the output signal and the peak spurious signal within the dc
to Nyquist frequency of the DAC. Typically, the interpolation
filters reject energy in this band. This specification, therefore,
defines how well the interpolation filters work and the effect of
other parasitic coupling paths on the DAC output.
Offset Error
Offset error is the deviation of the output current from the ideal
of 0 mA. For DACOUTP, 0 mA output is expected when all
inputs are set to 0. For DACOUTN, 0 mA output is expected
when all inputs are set to 1.
Gain Error
Gain error is the difference between the actual and ideal output
span. The actual span is determined by the difference between
the output when all inputs are set to 1 and the output when all
inputs are set to 0.
Output Compliance Range
The output compliance range is the range of allowable voltage
at the output of a current output DAC. Operation beyond the
maximum compliance limits can cause either output stage
saturation or breakdown, resulting in nonlinear performance.
Temperature Drift
Temperature drift is specified as the maximum change from
the ambient (25°C) value to the value at either TMIN or TMAX.
For offset and gain drift, the drift is reported in ppm of fullscale range (FSR) per degree Celsius. For reference drift, the
drift is reported in ppm per degree Celsius.
Power Supply Rejection (PSR)
PSR is the maximum change in the full-scale output as the
supplies are varied from minimum to maximum specified
voltages.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured output signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The value
for SNR is expressed in decibels.
Interpolation Filter
If the digital inputs to the DAC are sampled at a multiple rate of
fDATA (interpolation rate), a digital filter can be constructed that
has a sharp transition band near fDATA/2. Images that typically
appear around fDAC (output data rate) can be greatly suppressed.
Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR)
ACLR is the ratio in decibels relative to the carrier (dBc) between
the measured power within a channel relative to its adjacent
channel.
Complex Image Rejection
In a traditional two-part upconversion, two images are created
around the second IF frequency. These images have the effect
of wasting transmitter power and system bandwidth. By placing
the real part of a second complex modulator in series with the
first complex modulator, either the upper or lower frequency
image near the second IF can be rejected.

SERIAL PORT OPERATION
54 CS
SPI
PORT 53 SCLK
52 SDIO
11744-028
The serial port is a flexible, synchronous serial communications
port that allows easy interfacing to many industry standard microcontrollers and microprocessors. The serial I/O is compatible
with most synchronous transfer formats, including both the
Motorola SPI and Intel® SSR protocols. The interface allows
read/write access to all registers that configure the AD9139.
MSB first or LSB first transfer formats are supported. The serial
port interface is a 3-wire only interface. The input and output
share a single input/output (SDIO) pin.
SERIAL PORT PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Serial Clock (SCLK)
The serial clock pin, SCLK, synchronizes data to and from the
device and runs the internal state machines. The maximum
frequency of SCLK is 40 MHz. All data input is read on the rising
edge of SCLK. All data is driven out on the falling edge of SCLK.
Chip Select (CS)
Figure 23. Serial Port Interface Pins
There are two phases to a communication cycle with the AD9139.
Phase 1 is the instruction cycle (the writing of an instruction
byte into the device), coincident with the first 16 SCLK rising
edges. The instruction word provides the serial port controller
with information regarding the data transfer cycle, Phase 2, of
the communication cycle. The Phase 1 instruction word defines
whether the upcoming data transfer is a read or write, together
with the starting register address for the following data transfer.
A logic high on the CS pin, followed by a logic low, resets the
serial port timing to the initial state of the instruction cycle.
From this state, the next 16 rising SCLK edges represent the
instruction bits of the current I/O operation.
The remaining SCLK edges are for Phase 2 of the communication
cycle. Phase 2 is the actual data transfer between the device and
the system controller. Phase 2 of the communication cycle is a
transfer of one data byte. Registers change immediately upon
writing to the last bit of each transfer byte.
DATA FORMAT
The instruction byte contains the information shown in Table 9.
Table 9. Serial Port Instruction Word
I15 (MSB)
R/W
A14 to A0 (Bit 14 to Bit 0 of the instruction word) determine
the register that is accessed during the data transfer portion of
the communication cycle. For multibyte transfers, A14 is the
starting address; the device generates the remaining register
addresses based on the SPI_LSB_FIRST bit.
I[14:0]
A[14:0]
R/W (Bit 15 of the instruction word) determines whether a read
or a write data transfer occurs after the instruction word write.
Logic 1 indicates a read operation, and Logic 0 indicates a write
operation.
CS is an active low input that starts and gates a communication
cycle. It allows the use of multiple devices on the same serial
communications line. The SDIO pin enters a high impedance
state when the CS input is high. During the communication
cycle, CS remains low.
Serial Data I/O (SDIO)
The SDIO pin is a bidirectional data line.
SERIAL PORT OPTIONS
The serial port supports both MSB first and LSB first data
formats; the SPI_LSB_FIRST bit (Register 0x00, Bit 6) controls
this functionality. The default is MSB first (SPI_LSB_FIRST = 0).
When SPI_LSB_FIRST = 0 (MSB first), the instruction and data
bits must be written from MSB to LSB. Multibyte data transfers
in MSB first format start with an instruction word that includes the
register address of the most significant data byte. Subsequent data
bytes must follow from high address to low address. In MSB first
mode, the serial port internal word address generator decrements
for each data byte of the multibyte communication cycle.
When SPI_LSB_FIRST = 1 (LSB first), the instruction and data
bits must be written from LSB to MSB. Multibyte data transfers
in LSB first format start with an instruction word that includes the
register address of the least significant data byte. Subsequent data
bytes must follow from low address to high address. In LSB first
mode, the serial port internal word address generator increments
for each data byte of the multibyte communication cycle.
When the MSB first mode is active, the serial port controller
data address decrements from the data address written toward
0x00 for multibyte I/O operations. If the LSB first mode is
active, the serial port controller data address increments from
the data address written toward 0xFF for multibyte I/O
operations.

DATA INTERFACE
LVDS INPUT DATA PORTS
DATA INTERFACE CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
The AD9139 has a 16-bit LVDS bus that accepts 16-bit data
either in word wide (16-bit) or byte wide (8-bit) formats. In the
word wide interface mode, the data is sent over the entire 16-bit
data bus. In the byte wide interface mode, the data is sent over
the lower 8-bit (D7 to D0) LVDS bus. Table 10 lists the pin
assignment of the bus and the SPI register configuration for
each mode.
To provide more flexibility for the data interface, additional
options are listed in Table 11.

DLL INTERFACE MODE
A source synchronous LVDS interface is used between the data
host and the AD9139 to achieve high data rates while simplifying
the interface. The FPGA or ASIC feeds the AD9139 with 16-bit
input data. Together with the input data, the FPGA or ASIC
provides a DDR DCI.
SPI Register Configuration
Register 0x26, Bit 0 = 0
Register 0x26, Bit 0 = 1
WORD INTERFACE MODE
In word mode, the digital clock input (DCI) signal is a reference
bit that generates a double data rate (DDR) data sampling clock.
Time align the DCI signal with the data.
A delay locked loop (DLL) circuit, designed to operate with
DCI clock rates between 250 MHz and 575 MHz, generates a
phase shifted version of the DCI signal, called a data sampling
clock (DSC), to register the input data on both the rising and
falling edges.

BYTE INTERFACE MODE
In byte mode, the required sequence of the input data stream is
S0[15:8], S0[7:0], S1[15:8], S1[7:0], and so forth. A frame signal
is required to align the order of input data bytes properly. Time
align both the DCI signal and frame signal with the data. The
rising edge of the frame indicates the start of the sequence. The
frame can be either a one shot or periodical signal as long as its
first rising edge is correctly captured by the device. For a one
shot frame, the frame pulse must be held at high for at least one
DCI cycle. For a periodical frame, the frequency must be
fDCI/(2 × n)
Figure 29 is an example of signal timing in byte mode.
AD9139 WORD MODE
S0[15:8]
S0[7:0]
S1[15:8]
As shown in Figure 31, the DCI clock edges must be coincident
with the data bit transitions with minimum skew and jitter. The
nominal sampling point of the input data occurs in the middle
of the DCI clock edges because this point corresponds to the
center of the data eye. This is also equivalent to a nominal phase
shift of 90°of the DCI clock.
The data timing requirements are defined by a data valid
window (DVW) that is dependent on the data clock input skew,
input data jitter, and the variations of the DLL delay line across
delay settings. The DVW is defined as
DVW = tDATA PERIOD − tDATA SKEW − tDATA JITTER
The available margin for data interface timing is given by
tMARGIN = DVW − (tS + tH)
The difference of the setup and hold times, which is also called
the keep out window, or KOW, is the area where data transitions
are prohibited. The timing margin allows the user to set the
DLL delay, as shown in Figure 30.

Figure 30. LVDS Data Port Timing Requirements
Figure 30 shows that the ideal location for the DSC signal is 90°
out of phase from the DCI input; however, due to skew of the
DCI relative to the data, it may be necessary to change the DSC
phase offset to sample the data at the center of its eye diagram.
Vary the sampling instance in discrete increments by offsetting the
nominal DLL phase shift value of 90° via Register 0x0A, Bits[3:0].
This register is a signed value. The MSB is the sign and the LSBs
are the magnitude. The following equation defines the phase
offset relationship:
Phase Offset = 90° + n × 11.25°, |n| < 7
where n is the DLL phase offset setting.
Figure 31 shows the DSC setup and hold times with respect to
the DCI signal and data signals.
Table 12 lists the guaranteed values across the operating conditions. These values were obtained using a 50% duty cycle and a
DCI swing of 450 mV p-p. For best performance, maintain a
duty cycle variation below ±5% and set the DCI input as high as
possible, up to 1200 mV p-p.

Table 13 shows characterization data for selected fDCI frequencies. Other frequencies are possible; use Table 13 to estimate performance.
Table 13 shows the typical times for various DCI clock frequencies
that are required to calculate the data valid margin. Use Table 13 to
determine the amount of margin that is available for tuning of
the DSC sampling point.
Maximizing the opening of the eye in both the DCI and data
signals improves the reliability of the data port interface. Use
differential controlled impedance traces of equal length (that is,
delay) between the host processor and the AD9139 input. To
ensure coincident transitions with the data bits, implement the
DCI signal as an additional data line with an alternating
(010101…) bit sequence from the same output drivers that are
used for the data.
The DCI signal is ac-coupled by default; thus, removing the
DCI signal may cause DAC output chatter due to randomness
on the DCI input. To avoid this, disable the DAC output
whenever the DCI signal is not present by setting the DAC output
current power-down bit in Register 0x01[7] to 1. When the DCI
signal is again present, enable the DAC output by programming
Register 0x01[7] to 0.
Register 0x0D optimizes the DLL stability over the operating
frequency range. Table 14 shows the recommended settings.

Poll the status of the DLL by reading the data status register at
Address 0x0E. Bit 0 indicates that the DLL is running and
attempting lock; Bit 7 is 1 when the DLL has locked. Bit 2 is 1
when a valid data clock input (DCI) is detected. The warning
bits in [6:4] in Register 0x0E can be used as indicators that the
DAC may be operating in a nonideal location in the delay line.
Note that these bits are read at the SPI port speed, which is
much slower than the actual speed of the DLL. This means they
can only show a snapshot of what is happening as opposed to
giving real-time feedback.

PARITY
The data interface can be continuously monitored by enabling
the parity bit feature in Register 0x6A[7] and configuring the
frame/parity bit as parity by setting Register 0x09 = 0x21. In
this case, the host sends a parity bit with each data sample. This
bit is set according to the following formulas, where n is the
data sample that is being checked:
For even parity,
XOR[FRM(n), D0(n), D1(n), D2(n), …, D15(n)] = 0
For odd parity,
XOR[FRM(n), D0(n), D1(n), D2(n), …, D15(n)] = 1
The parity bit is calculated over 17 bits (including the
frame/parity bit).
If a parity error occurs, the parity error counter (Register 0x6B
or Register 0x6C) increments. Parity errors on the bits sampled
by the rising edge of the DCI signal increment the rising edge
parity counter (Register 0x6B) and set the PARERRRIS bit
(Register 0x6A[0]). Parity errors on the bits sampled by the
falling edge of DCI increment the falling edge parity counter
(Register 0x6C) and set the PARERRFAL bit (Register 0x6A[1]).
The parity counter continues to accumulate until it clears or
until it reaches a maximum value of 255. To clear the count,
write a 1 to Register 0x6A[5].
To trigger an IRQ when a parity error occurs, write 1 to Bit 7 in
Register 0x04. This IRQ triggers when there is either a rising
edge or falling edge parity error. Observe the status of the IRQ
pin via Register 0x06[7] or by using the selected IRQx pin. Clear
the IRQ by writing a 1 to Register 0x06[7].
Use the parity bit feature to validate the interface timing. As
described previously, the host provides a parity bit with the data
samples, as well as configures the AD9139 to generate an IRQ.
The user can then sweep the sampling instance of the input
registers of the AD9139 to determine at what point sampling
errors occur. The sampling instance can be varied in discrete
increments by offsetting the nominal DLL phase shift value of
90° via SPI Register 0x0A[3:0].
SED OPERATION
The AD9139 provides on-chip sample error detection (SED)
circuitry that simplifies verification of the input data interface.
The SED compares the input data samples captured at the digital
input pins with a set of comparison values. The comparison values
are loaded into registers through the SPI port. Differences between
the captured values and the comparison values are detected.
Options are available for customizing SED test sequencing and
error handling.
The SED circuitry allows the application to test a short user
defined pattern to confirm that the high speed source
synchronous data bus is correctly implemented and meets the
timing requirement. Unlike the parity bit, the SED circuitry is
expected to be used during initial system calibration, before the
AD9139 is in use in the application. The SED circuitry operates
on a data set made up of user defined input words, denoted as
S0, S1, S2, and S3. The user defined pattern consists of
sequential data-word samples (S0 is sampled on the rising edge
of DCI, S1 is sampled on the following falling edge of DCI, S2 is
sampled on the following DCI rising edge, and S3 is sampled on
the following DCI falling edge). The user loads this data pattern
in the byte format into Register 0x61 through Register 0x68.
The depth of the user defined pattern is selectable via Bit 4 of
the SED_CTRL register (0x60). A default of 0, means a depth of
two (using S0 and S1), and a 1 means a depth of four (using S0,
S1, S2, and S3, and requiring the use of frame signal input to
define S0 to the SED state machine). To properly align the input
samples using a depth of 4, S0 is indicated by asserting the
frame signal for a minimum of two complete input samples as
shown in. The frame signal can be issued once at the start of the
data transmission, or it can be asserted repeatedly at intervals
coinciding with the S0 word.

The SED has three flag bits (Register 0x60, Bit 0, Bit 1, and
Bit 2) that indicate the results of the input sample comparisons.
The sample error detected bit (Register 0x60, Bit 0) is set when
an error is detected and remains set until cleared.
The autosample error detection (AED) mode is an autoclear
mode that has two effects: it activates the compare fail bit and
the compare pass bit (Register 0x60, Bit 1 and Bit 2). The
compare pass bit sets if the last comparison indicated the
sample was error free. The compare fail bit sets if an error is

detected. The compare fail bit is automatically cleared by the
reception of eight consecutive error free comparisons when
autoclear mode is enabled.
The sample error flag can be configured to trigger an IRQ when
active, if desired, by enabling the appropriate bit in the event
flag register (Register 0x04, Bit 6).

There is a fixed 1.38 ns delay on the DCI signal when the delay line
is enabled. Each tap adds a nominal delay of 200 ps to the fixed
delay. To achieve the best timing margin, that is, to center the
setup and hold window in the middle of the data eye, the user
may need to add a delay on the data bus with respect to the DCI
signal in the data source. Figure 33 is an example of calculating
the optimal external delay.
Register 0x0D[4] configures the DCI signal coupling settings
for optimal interface performance over the operating frequency
range. It is recommended that this bit be set to 1 (dc-coupled
DCI) in the delay line interface mode.

The DLL is designed to help ease the interface timing requirements in very high speed data rate applications. The DLL has
a minimum supported interface speed of 250 MHz, as shown
in Table 2. For interface rates below this speed, use the interface
delay line. In this mode, the DLL is powered off and a four-tap
delay line is provided for the user to adjust the timing between
the data bus and the DCI. Table 15 specifies the setup and hold
times for each delay tap.

Interface Timing Requirements
SPI Sequence to Enable Delay Line-Based Mode
The following example shows how to calculate the optimal
delay at the data source to achieve the best sampling timing in
the delay line interface mode:
Use the following SPI sequence to enable the delay line-based
mode:
•
•
fDCI = 200 MHz
Delay setting = 0
The shadow area in Figure 33 is the interface setup and hold
time window set to 0. To optimize the interface timing, this
window must be placed in the middle of the data transitions.
Because the input is double data rate, the available data period
is 2.5 ns. Therefore, the optimal data bus delay, with respect to
the DCI signal at the data source, can be calculated as
t DELAY =
(| t S | + | t H |) t DATA PERIOD

AD9139
Data Sheet
FIFO OPERATION
The AD9139 adopts source synchronous clocking in the data
receiver (see the Data Interface section). The nature of source
synchronous clocking is the creation of a separate clock domain
at the receiving device. In the DAC, it is the DAC clock domain,
that is, the DACCLK. Therefore, there are two clock domains
inside of the DAC: the DCI and the DACCLK. Often, these two
clock domains are not synchronous, requiring an additional
stage to adjust the timing for proper data transfer. In the
AD9139, a FIFO stage is inserted between the DCI and DACCLK
domains to transfer the received data into the core clock
domain (DACCLK) of the DAC.
The AD9139 contains a 2-channel, 16-bit wide, eight-word deep
FIFO. The FIFO acts as a buffer that absorbs timing variations
between the two clock domains. The timing budget between the
two clock domains in the system is significantly relaxed due to
the depth of the FIFO.
Figure 34 shows the block diagram of the datapath through the
FIFO. The input data is latched into the device, formatted, and
then written into the FIFO register, which is determined by the
FIFO write pointer. The value of the write pointer is incremented
every time a new word is loaded into the FIFO. Meanwhile, data
is read from the FIFO register, which is determined by the read
pointer, and fed into the digital datapath. The value of the read
pointer is incremented every time data is read into the datapath
from the FIFO. The FIFO pointers are incremented at the data
rate, which is the DACCLK rate divided by the interpolation rate.
Valid data is transmitted through the FIFO as long as the FIFO
does not overflow (full) or underflow (empty). An overflow or
underflow condition occurs when the write pointer and read
pointer point to the same FIFO slot. This simultaneous access of
data leads to unreliable data transfer through the FIFO and must
be avoided.
Normally, data is written to and read from the FIFO at the same
rate to maintain a constant FIFO depth. If data is written to the
FIFO faster than data is read, the FIFO depth increases. If data
is read from the FIFO faster than data is written to it, the FIFO
depth decreases. For optimal timing margin, maintain the FIFO
depth near half full (a difference of four between the write pointer
and read pointer values). The FIFO depth represents the FIFO
pipeline delay and is part of the overall latency of the AD9139.

RESETTING THE FIFO
SERIAL PORT INITIATED FIFO RESET
Upon device power-on, the read and write pointers start to roll
around the FIFO from an arbitrary slot; consequently, the FIFO
depth is unknown. To avoid a concurrent read and write to the
same FIFO address and to assure a fixed pipeline delay from
power-on to power-on, it is important to reset the FIFO pointers to
a known state each time the device powers on or wakes up. This
state is specified in the requested FIFO level (FIFO depth and
FIFO level are used interchangeably in this data sheet), which
consists of two parts: the integer FIFO level and the fractional
FIFO level.
A SPI initiated FIFO reset is the most common method to reset
the FIFO. To initialize the FIFO level through the serial port,
toggle FIFO_SPI_RESET_REQUEST (Register 0x25, Bit 0)
from 0 to 1 and back to 0. When the write to this register is
complete, the FIFO level is initialized to the requested FIFO level
and the readback of FIFO_SPI_RESET_ACK (Register 0x25, Bit 1)
is set to 1. The FIFO level readback, in the same format as the
FIFO level request, must be within ±1 DACCLK cycle of the
requested level. For example, if the requested value is 0x40 in
2× interpolation, the readback value should be one of the
following: 0x31, 0x40, or 0x41. The range of ±1 DACCLK cycle
indicates the default DAC latency uncertainty from power-on
to power-on without turning on synchronization.
The integer FIFO level represents the difference of the states
between the read and write points in the unit of input data period
(1/fDATA). The fractional FIFO level represents the difference of
the FIFO pointers that is smaller than the input data period.
The resolution of the fractional FIFO level is the input data period
divided by the interpolation ratio and, thus, it is equal to one
DACCLK cycle.
The exact FIFO level, that is, the FIFO latency, can be calculated
by
FIFO Latency = Integer Level + Fractional Level
Because the FIFO has eight data slots, there are eight possible
FIFO integer levels. The maximum supported interpolation rate
in the AD9139 is 2× interpolation. Therefore, there are two
possible FIFO fractional levels.
Two 3-bit registers in Register 0x23 are assigned to represent
the two FIFO levels, as follows:
•
•
Bits[6:4] represent the FIFO integer level
Bits[2:0] represent the FIFO fractional level
For example, if the interpolation rate is 2× and the desired total
FIFO depth is 4.5 input data periods, set the FIFO_LEVEL_
CONFIG (Register 0x23) to 0x41 (4 means four data cycles and
1 means one DAC cycle, which is half of a data cycle, in this
case).
Reset the FIFO and initialize the FIFO level using either of the
following methods:
•
•
Serial port (SPI) initiated FIFO reset
Frame initiated FIFO reset
The recommended procedure for a serial port FIFO reset is as
follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
Configure the DAC in the desired interpolation mode
(Register 0x28[7]).
Ensure that the DACCLK and DCI clocks are running and
stable at the clock inputs.
Program Register 0x23 to 0x41.

Verify that the device acknowledges the request by setting

Remove the request by setting Register 0x25[0] to 0.
Verify that the device drops the acknowledge signal by
setting Register 0x25[1] to 0.
Read back Register 0x06[2] and Register 0x06[1]. If both
bits are 0, continue to Step 9. If any of the two bits is 1,
program Register 0x23 to 0x40.
Read back Register 0x24 multiple times to verify that the
actual FIFO level is set to the requested level (Register 0x23),
and that the readback values are stable. By design, the
readback is within ±1 DACCLK around the requested
level.
FRAME INITIATED FIFO RESET
The frame input has two functions. One function is to indicate
the beginning of a byte stream in the byte interface mode, as
described in the Data Interface section. The other function is
to initialize the FIFO level by asserting the frame signal high
for at least the time interval required to load two samples of
data to the DAC. This corresponds to one DCI period in word
mode and two DCI periods in byte mode. Note that this
requirement of the frame pulse length is longer than that of the
frame signal when it serves only to assemble the byte stream.
The device accepts either a continuous frame or a one shot
frame signal.

Data Sheet
In the continuous reset mode, the FIFO responds to every valid
frame pulse and resets itself. In the one shot reset mode, the
FIFO responds only to the first valid frame pulse after the
FRAME_RESET_MODE bits (Register 0x22[1:0]) are set.
Therefore, even with a continuous frame input, the FIFO resets
one time only; this prevents the FIFO from toggling between
the two states from periodic resets. The one shot frame reset
mode is the default and the recommended mode.
The recommended procedure for a frame initiated FIFO reset is
as follows:

Configure the DAC in the desired interpolation mode
(Register 0x28[7]).
Ensure that the DACCLK and DCI clocks are running and
stable at the clock inputs.
Ensure that the DLL is locked (if using DLL Mode) or the
DCI clock is being sent properly (if using bypass mode).
Program Register 0x23 to 0x41.
Configure the FRAME_RESET_MODE bits
(Register 0x22[1:0]) to 10.
Choose one shot frame mode by writing 0 to
EN_CON_FRAME_RESET (Register 0x22[2]).
Toggle the frame input from 0 to 1 and back to 0. The pulse
width must be longer than the minimum requirement.
Read back Register 0x06[2] and Register 0x06[1]. If both
bits are 0, continue to Step 9. If any of the two bits are 1,
program Register 0x23 to 0x40.
Read back Register 0x24 multiple times to verify that the
actual FIFO level is set to the requested level (Register 0x23)
and the readback values are stable. By design, the readback
should be within ±1 DACCLK around the requested level.
These procedures apply in synchronization off mode only. For
resetting FIFO in synchronization on mode, refer to the
synchronization procedure in the Multidevice Synchronization
and Fixed Latency section. FIFO reset is one of the steps to
achieve synchronization.
Monitoring the FIFO Status
Monitor the real-time FIFO status from SPI Register 0x24, which
reflects the real-time FIFO depth after a FIFO reset. Without
timing drifts in the system, this readback does not change from
that which resulted from the FIFO reset. When there is a timing
drift or other abnormal clocking situation, the FIFO level
readback can change. However, as long as the FIFO does not
overflow or underflow, there is no error in data trans-mission.
The status bits in Register 0x06, Bits[2:1] indicate if there are
FIFO underflows or overflows. Latch the status of the two bits
to trigger the hardware interrupts, IRQ1 and IRQ2. To enable
latching and interrupts, configure the corresponding bits in
Register 0x03 and Register 0x04.

MAGNITUDE (dB)
The AD9139 provides two interpolation modes. Each mode offers
a different usable signal bandwidth in an operating mode. Which
mode to select depends on the required signal bandwidth and the
DAC update rate. Refer to Table 5 for the maximum speed and
signal bandwidth of each interpolation mode.

The usable bandwidth in 1× interpolation is the DCI rate or half
of the input data rate. The usable bandwidth in 2× interpolation
is 0.8 times the DCI rate or 0.4 times the input data rate. It is
defined as the frequency band over which the filters have a
pass-band ripple of less than ±0.001 dB and a stop-band
rejection of greater than 85 dB.

Figure 36 and Figure 37 show the pass-band and all-band filter
response for 2× mode. Note that the transition from the

the desired output signal moves out of the defined pass band,
the signal image, which is supposed to be suppressed by the stop
band, grows faster than the droop of the signal itself due to the
degraded pass-band flatness. In cases where the degraded image
rejection is acceptable or can be compensated by the analog
low-pass filter at the DAC output, it is possible to let the output
signal extend beyond the specified usable signal bandwidth.

INVERSE SINC FILTER
The AD9139 provides a digital inverse sinc filter to compensate
for the DAC rolloff over frequency. The inverse sinc (sinc−1) filter
is a seven-tap FIR filter. Figure 38 shows the frequency response
of sin(x)/x rolloff, the inverse sinc filter, and their composite
response. The composite response has less than ±0.05 dB passband ripple up to a frequency of 0.4 × fDAC.

To provide the necessary peaking at the upper end of the pass
band, the inverse sinc filter has an intrinsic insertion loss of
approximately 3.8 dB. Offset the loss of the digital gain by
increasing the digital gain adjustment setting to minimize the
impact on the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). However, care is
needed to ensure that the additional digital gain does not cause
signal saturation, especially at high output frequencies. The sinc−1
filter is disabled by default; it can be enabled by setting the
INVSINC_ENABLE bit to 1 in Register 0x27[7]).

DIGITAL FUNCTION CONFIGURATION
The inverse sinc filter can be enabled or disabled. The pipeline
latency of the DAC is dependent on which of the digital
function blocks are enabled or disabled. If fixed DAC pipeline
latency is desired during operation, leave each digital function
block always enabled or always disabled after initial configuration.
Rev. A | Page 28 of 56
Data Sheet
AD9139
MULTIDEVICE SYNCHRONIZATION AND FIXED LATENCY
A DAC introduces a variation of pipeline latency to a system.
The latency variation causes the phase of a DAC output to vary
from power-on to power-on. Therefore, the output from
different DAC devices may not be perfectly aligned even with
well aligned clocks and digital inputs. The skew between
multiple DAC outputs varies from power-on to power-on.
In applications such as transmit diversity or digital predistortion,
where deterministic latency is desired, the variation of the
pipeline latency must be minimized. Deterministic latency in
this data sheet is defined as a fixed time delay from the digital
input to the analog output in a DAC from power-on to power-on.
Multiple DAC devices are considered synchronized to each other
when each DAC in this group has the same constant latency
from power-on to power-on. Three conditions must be
identical in all of the ready-to-sync devices before these devices
are considered synchronized:
•
•
•
The phase of DAC internal clocks
The FIFO level
The alignment of the input data
VERY SMALL INHERENT LATENCY VARIATION
The innovative architecture of the AD9139 minimizes the
inherent latency variation. The worst-case variation in the
AD9139 is two DAC clock cycles. For example, in the case of a
1.6 GHz sample rate, the variation is less than 1.25 ns in any
scenario. Therefore, without turning on the synchronization
engine, the DAC outputs from multiple AD9139 devices are
guaranteed to be aligned within two DAC clock cycles, regardless
of the timing between the DCI and the DACCLK. No additional
clocks are required to achieve this accuracy. The user must reset
the FIFO in each DAC device through the SPI at startup.
Therefore, the AD9139 can decrease the complexity of system
design in multiple transmit channel applications.
Note the alignment of the DCI signals in the design. The DCI
signal is used as a reference in the AD9139 design to align the
FIFO and the phase of internal clocks in multiple parts. The
achieved DAC output alignment depends on how well the DCI
signals are aligned at the input of each device. The following
equation is the expression of the worst-case DAC output
alignment accuracy in the case of DCI signal mismatches:
tSK (OUT) = tSK (DCI) + 2/fDAC
where:
tSK (OUT) is the worst-case skew between the DAC outputs from
two AD9139 devices.
tSK (DCI) is the skew between two DCI signals at the DCI input of
the two AD9139 devices.
fDAC is the DACCLK frequency.
The better the alignment of the DCI signals, the smaller the
overall skew between the two DAC outputs.
FURTHER REDUCING THE LATENCY VARIATION
For applications that require finer synchronization accuracy
(DAC latency variation < 2 DAC clock cycles), the AD9139 has
a provision for enabling multiple devices to be synchronized to
each other within a single DAC clock cycle.
To reduce further the latency variation in the DAC, the
synchronization machine must be turned on and two external
clocks (frame and sync) must be generated in the system and
fed to all the DAC devices.
Setup and Hold Timing Requirement
The sync clock (SYNCCLK) serves as a reference clock in the
system to reset the clock generation circuitry in multiple AD9139
devices simultaneously. Inside the DAC, the sync clock is sampled
by the DACCLK to generate a reference point for aligning the
internal clocks; consequently, there is a setup and hold timing
requirement between the sync clock and the DAC clock.
Adopting the continuous frame reset mode (where the FIFO
and sync engine periodically reset) demands meeting the timing
requirements between the sync clock and the DAC clock;
otherwise, the device can lose lock and corrupt the output. In
the one shot frame reset mode, it is still recommended that this
timing be met at the time when the sync routine is run because
not meeting the timing can degrade the sync alignment
accuracy by one DAC clock cycle, as shown in Table 18.
The AD9139 also provides a mode by which to synchronize the
device in a one shot manner and to continue to monitor the
synchronization status. It provides a continuous sync and frame
clock to synchronize the device once and ignore the clock cycles
after detecting the first valid frame pulse. In this way, the user can
monitor the sync status without periodically resynchronizing the
device; to engage one shot sync mode, set Register 0x22[2] to 0.

The negative sign indicates the direction of the setup time. The setup time is
defined as positive when it is on the left side of the clock edge and negative
when it is on the right side of the clock edge.
SYNCHRONIZATION IMPLEMENTATION
The AD9139 allows the user to choose either the rising or
falling edge of the DAC clock to sample the sync clock, which
makes it easier to meet the timing requirements. Ensure that the
sync clock, fSYNC, is 1/8 × fDCI or slower by a factor of 2n, n being
an integer (1, 2, 3…). Note that there is a limit on how slow the
sync clock can be because of the ac coupling nature of the sync
clock receiver. Choose an appropriate value of the ac coupling
capacitors to ensure that the signal swing meets the data sheet
specification, as listed in Table 2.
Rev. A | Page 29 of 56
AD9139
Data Sheet
The frame clock resets the FIFO in multiple AD9139 devices.
The frame can be either a one shot or continuous clock. In either
case, the pulse width of the frame must be longer than one DCI
cycle in the word mode and two DCI cycles in the byte mode.
When the frame is a continuous clock, fFRAME, ensure that it is
1/8 × fDCI or slower by a factor of 2n, n being an integer (1, 2,
3…). One shot frame reset is the recommended method. Because
the DCI and the DAC clock are generated in two separate clock
domains, timing drifts between the two clocks can cause the FIFO
level to toggle between two values in the continuous reset mode
and, thus, to corrupt the DAC output. Table 19 lists the
requirements of the frame clock in various conditions.
SYNCHRONIZATION PROCEDURES
When the sync accuracy of an application is less precise than
two DAC clock cycles, it is recommended to turn off the
synchronization machine because no additional steps are required,
other than the regular start-up procedure sequence.
For applications that require more precise sync accuracy than
two DAC clock cycles, use the procedures in the following
sections to set up the system and configure the device.

INTERRUPT REQUEST OPERATION
The AD9139 provides an interrupt request output signal on
Pin 50 and Pin 51 (IRQ2 and IRQ1, respectively) to notify
an external host processor of significant device events. Upon
assertion of the interrupt, query the device to determine the
precise event that occurred. The IRQ1 pin and IRQ2 pin are
open-drain, active low outputs. Pull the IRQx pin high
(DVDD18 supply) external to the device. The IRQx pin can be
tied to the interrupt pins of other devices with open-drain
outputs to wire-OR these pins together.
method is by writing 1 to the corresponding event flag bit. The
second method is to use a hardware or software reset to clear the
INTERRUPT_SOURCE signal.
The IRQ2 circuitry works in the same way as the IRQ1 circuitry.
Any one or multiple event flags can be enabled to trigger
the IRQx pins. The user can select one or both hardware
interrupt pins for the enabled event flags. Register 0x07 and
Register 0x08 determine the pin to which each event flag is
routed. Set Register 0x07 and Register 0x08 to 0 for IRQ1 and set
these registers to 1 for IRQ2.
Eleven event flags provide visibility into the device. These flags
are located in the two event flag registers, Register 0x05 and
Register 0x06. The behavior of each event flag is independently
selected in the interrupt enable registers, Register 0x03 and
Register 0x04. When the flag interrupt enable is active, the event
flag latches and triggers the IRQ1 and/or IRQ2 pins. When the
flag interrupt is disabled, the event flag monitors the source
signal, but the IRQ1 and IRQ2 pins remain inactive.
INTERRUPT SERVICE ROUTINE
Interrupt request management starts by selecting the set of
event flags that require host intervention or monitoring. Enable
the events that require host action so that the host is notified
when they occur. For events requiring host intervention
upon IRQx activation, run the following routine to clear an
interrupt request:
INTERRUPT WORKING MECHANISM
1.
Figure 40 shows the interrupt related circuitry and how the event
flag signals propagate to the IRQx output. The INTERRUPT_
ENABLE signal represents one bit from the interrupt enable
register. The EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal represents one bit
from the event flag register. The EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal
represents one of the device signals that can be monitored, such as
the PLL_LOCK signal from the PLL phase detector or the
FIFO_OVERFLOW signal from the FIFO controller.

6.
When an interrupt enable bit is set high, the corresponding event
flag bit reflects a positively tripped version of the EVENT_FLAG_
SOURCE signal; that is, the event flag bit is latched on the rising
edge of the EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal. This signal also
asserts the external IRQx pins.
Read the status of the event flag bits that are being
monitored.
Set the interrupt enable bit low to monitor the unlatched
EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal directly.
Perform any actions that may be required to clear the
EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal. In many cases, no
specific actions are required.
Read the event flag to verify that the actions taken have
cleared the EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal.
Clear the interrupt by writing 1 to the event flag bit.
Set the interrupt enable bits of the events to be monitored.
Note that some EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signals are latched
signals. Clear these signals by writing to the corresponding
event flag bit. For more information about each of the event
flags, see the Device Configuration Register Map and
Description section.
When an interrupt enable bit is set low, the event flag bit reflects
the present status of the EVENT_FLAG_SOURCE signal, and
the event flag has no effect on the external IRQx pins.

using Register 0x1D and Register 0x1E. The temperature of the
die can be calculated as
TDIE 
(DIETEMP[15:0]  41,237)

TA = TDIE – PD × θJA = 50 – 0.8 × 20.7 = 33.4°C
where TDIE is the die temperature in degrees Celsius.
The temperature accuracy is ±7°C typical over the −40°C to
+85°C range with one point temperature calibration against a
known temperature. See Figure 41 for a typical plot of the die
temperature code readback vs. die temperature.
where:
TA is the ambient temperature in degrees Celsius.
TDIE is the die temperature in degrees Celsius.
PD is power consumption of the device.
θJA is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient of the
AD9139, as shown in Table 7.
To use the temperature sensor, it must be enabled by setting
Register 0x1C[0] to 1. In addition, to obtain accurate readings,
set the die temperature control register (Register 0x1C) to 0x03.

Data Sheet
DAC INPUT CLOCK CONFIGURATIONS
The AD9139 DAC sample clock (DACCLK) can be sourced
directly or by clock multiplying. Clock multiplying employs the
on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) that accepts a reference clock
operating at a submultiple of the desired DACCLK rate. The
PLL then multiplies the reference clock up to the desired DACCLK
frequency, which then generates all of the internal clocks
required by the DAC. The clock multiplier provides a high
quality clock that meets the performance requirements of most
applications. Using the on-chip clock multiplier removes the
burden of generating and distributing the high speed DACCLK.
The second mode bypasses the clock multiplier circuitry and
sources DACCLK directly to the DAC core. This mode lets the user
source a very high quality clock directly to the DAC core.
DRIVING THE DACCLK AND REFCLK INPUTS
The DACCLKx and REFCLKx differential inputs share similar
clock receiver input circuitry (see Figure 42 for a simplified circuit
diagram of the input). The on-chip clock receiver has a differential
input impedance of about 10 kΩ. It is self biased to a commonmode voltage of about 1.25 V. Drive the inputs by differential
PECL or LVDS drivers with ac coupling between the clock
source and the receiver.
1nF~100nF
AD9139
DACCLKP,
REFP/SYNCP
Direct clocking with a low noise clock produces the lowest noise
spectral density at the DAC outputs. To select the differential
clock inputs as the source for the DAC sampling clock, set the
PLL enable bit (Register 0x12[7]) to 0. This powers down the
internal PLL clock multiplier and selects the input from the
DACCLKP and DACCLKN pins as the source for the internal
DAC sampling clock. The REFCLKx input can remain floating.
The device also has clock duty cycle correction circuitry and
differential input level correction circuitry. Enabling these circuits
can provide improved performance in some cases. The control
bits for these functions are in Register 0x10 and Register 0x11.
CLOCK MULTIPLICATION
The on-chip PLL clock multiplier circuit generates the DAC
sample rate clock from a lower frequency reference clock. When
the PLL enable bit (Register 0x12[7]) is set to 1, the clock
multiplication circuit generates the DAC sampling clock from
the lower rate REFCLK input and the DACCLKx input remains
floating. See Figure 43 for the functional diagram of the clock
multiplier.
The clock multiplier circuit operates such that the VCO outputs
a frequency, fVCO, equal to the REFCLKx input signal frequency
multiplied by N1 × N0. N1 is the divide ratio of the loop
divider; N0 is the divide ratio of the VCO divider.

The minimum input drive level to the differential clock input is
100 mV p-p differential. The optimal performance is achieved
when the clock input signal is between 800 mV p-p differential
and 1.6 V p-p differential. Whether using the on-chip clock
multiplier or sourcing the DACCLK directly, the input clock
signal to the device must have low jitter and fast edge rates to
optimize the DAC noise performance.

The output frequency of the VCO must be chosen to keep fVCO
in the optimal operating range of 1.0 GHz to 2.1 GHz. It is
important to select a frequency of the reference clock and values
of N1 and N0 so that the desired DACCLK frequency can be
synthesized and the VCO output frequency is in the correct range.

VCO FREQUENCY (MHz)
The PLL VCO has a valid operating range from approximately
1.03 GHz to 2.07 GHz covered in 64 overlapping frequency
bands. For any desired VCO output frequency, there may be
several valid PLL band select values. See Figure 44 for the
frequency bands of a typical device. Device-to-device variations
and operating temperature affect the actual band frequency
range. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the optimal PLL
band select value for each individual device.

MANUAL VCO BAND SELECT
The device includes a manual band select mode (PLL auto
manual enable, Register 0x12[6] = 1) that lets the user select the
VCO tuning band. In manual mode, the VCO band is set
directly with the value written to the manual VCO band bits
(Register 0x12[5:0]).
AUTOMATIC VCO BAND SELECT
PLL ENABLE SEQUENCE
The device has an automatic VCO band select feature on chip.
Using the automatic VCO band select feature is a simple and
reliable method of configuring the VCO frequency band.
Enable this feature by starting the PLL in manual mode and then
placing the PLL in autoband select mode by setting Register 0x12
to a value of 0xC0 and then to a value of 0x80. When these
values are written, the device executes an automated routine
that determines the optimal VCO band setting for the device.
To enable the PLL in automatic or manual mode properly, the
following sequence must be followed:
The setting selected by the device ensures that the PLL remains
locked over the full −40°C to +85°C operating temperature
range of the device without further adjustment. The PLL
remains locked over the full temperature range even if the
temperature during initialization is at one of the temperature
extremes.

Figure 45. Simplified Block Diagram of DAC Core
The DAC has a 1.2 V band gap reference with an output impedance of 5 kΩ. The reference output voltage appears on the VREF
pin. When using the internal reference, decouple the VREF pin
to AVSS with a 0.1 µF capacitor. Use the internal reference only
for external circuits that draw dc currents of 2 µA or less. For
dynamic loads or static loads greater than 2 µA, buffer the VREF
pin. If desired, the internal reference can be overdriven by
applying an external reference (from 1.10 V to 1.30 V) to the pin.
A 10 kΩ external resistor, RSET, must be connected from the
FSADJ pin to AVSS. This resistor, together with the reference
control amplifier, sets up the correct internal bias currents for
the DAC. Because the full-scale current is inversely proportional to
this resistor, the tolerance of RSET is reflected in the full-scale
output amplitude.
The full-scale current equation, where the DAC gain is set in
Register 0x18 and Register 0x19, is as follows:

Figure 45 shows a simplified block diagram of the transmit path
DACs. The DAC core consists of a current source array, a switch
core, digital control logic, and full-scale output current control.
The DAC full-scale output current (IOUTFS) is nominally 20 mA.
The output currents from the DACOUTP and DACOUTN pins
are complementary, meaning that the sum of the two currents
always equals the full-scale current of the DAC. The digital
input code to the DAC determines the effective differential
current delivered to the load.

For nominal values of VREF (1.2 V), RSET (10 kΩ), and DAC gain
(512), the full-scale current of the DAC is typically 20 mA. The
DAC full-scale current is adjustable from 8.64 mA to 31.68 mA by
setting the DAC gain parameter, as shown in Figure 46.
The output currents from the DACOUTP and DACOUTN pins
are complementary, meaning that the sum of the two currents

where DACCODE = 0 to 2N − 1.
Transmit DAC Output Configurations
The optimum noise and distortion performance of the AD9139
is realized when it is configured for differential operation. The
common-mode rejection of a transformer or differential amplifier
significantly reduces the common-mode error sources of the DAC
outputs. These common-mode error sources include even-order
distortion products and noise. The enhancement in distortion
performance becomes more significant as the frequency content of
the reconstructed waveform increases and/or its amplitude
increases. This is due to the first-order cancellation of various
dynamic common-mode distortion mechanisms, digital feedthrough, and noise.
Figure 47 shows the most basic DAC output circuitry. A pair of
resistors, RO, converts each of the complementary output currents
to a differential voltage output, VOUT. Because the current
outputs of the DAC are high impedance, the differential driving
point impedance of the DAC outputs, ROUT, is equal to 2 × RO.
See Figure 48 for the output voltage waveforms.

Family of Modulators

The baseband inputs of the ADL537x family require a dc bias
of 500 mV. The nominal midscale output current on each output of
the DAC is 10 mA (one-half the full-scale current). Therefore,
a single 50 Ω resistor to ground from each of the DAC outputs
results in the desired 500 mV dc common-mode bias for the
inputs to the ADL537x. The addition of the load resistor in
parallel with the modulator inputs reduces the signal level. The
peak-to-peak voltage swing of the transmitted signal is

Baseband Filter Implementation
VPEAK = 2 × IFS × RO
Most applications require a baseband anti-imaging filter between
the DAC and the modulator to filter out Nyquist images and
broadband DAC noise. The filter can be inserted between the
termination resistors at the DAC output and the signal level setting
resistor across the modulator input. This configuration
establishes the input and output impedances for the filter.
INTERFACING TO MODULATORS
The AD9139 interfaces to the ADL537x family of modulators
with a minimal number of components. An example of the
recommended interface circuitry is shown in Figure 49.
Figure 50 shows a fifth-order, low-pass filter. Splitting the filter
capacitors into two and grounding the center point creates a
common-mode low-pass filter that provides additional
common-mode rejection of high frequency signals. A purely
differential filter can pass common-mode signals.

REDUCING LO LEAKAGE AND UNWANTED
SIDEBANDS
(Register 0x18 through Register 0x19) can be used to calibrate
the gain of the transmit paths to optimize sideband suppression.
Analog quadrature modulators can introduce unwanted signals
at the local oscillator (LO) frequency caused by dc offset
voltages in the I and Q baseband inputs, as well as feedthrough
paths from the LO input to the output.
For more information about suppressing LO leakage and
sideband image, refer to Application Note AN-1039, Correcting
Imperfections in IQ Modulators to Improve RF Signal Fidelity
and Application Note AN-1100, Wireless Transmitter IQ Balance
and Sideband Suppression from the Analog Devices website.
Effective sideband suppression requires both gain and phase
matching of the I and Q signals. The DAC FS adjust registers
