PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1.
Low noise and intermodulation distortion (IMD) features
enable high quality synthesis of wideband signals at intermediate frequencies up to 600 MHz.
2.
Double data rate (DDR) LVDS data receivers support the
maximum conversion rate of 1200 MSPS.
3.
Direct pin programmability of basic functions or SPI port
access offers complete control of all AD973x family
functions.
4.
Manufactured on a CMOS process, the AD973x family
uses a proprietary switching technique that enhances
dynamic performance.
5.
The current output(s) of the AD9736 family are easily configured for single-ended or differential circuit topologies.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9736, AD9735, and AD9734 are high performance, high
frequency DACs that provide sample rates of up to 1200 MSPS,
permitting multicarrier generation up to their Nyquist
frequency. The AD9736 is the 14-bit member of the family,
while the AD9735 and the AD9734 are the 12-bit and 10-bit
members, respectively. They include a serial peripheral interface
(SPI) port that provides for programming of many internal
parameters and enables readback of status registers.

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
Note that this device in its current form does not meet Analog Devices’ standard requirements for ESD as measured against the charged
device model (CDM). As such, special care should be used when handling this product, especially in a manufacturing environment. Analog
Devices will provide a more ESD-hardy product in the near future at which time this warning will be removed from this data sheet.

TERMINOLOGY
Linearity Error (Integral Nonlinearity or INL)
The maximum deviation of the actual analog output from the
ideal output, determined by a straight line drawn from zero to
full scale.
Power Supply Rejection
The maximum change in the full-scale output as the supplies
are varied from nominal to minimum and maximum specified
voltages.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
The measure of the variation in analog value, normalized to full
scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input code.
Settling Time
The time required for the output to reach and remain within a
specified error band about its final value, measured from the
start of the output transition.
Monotonicity
A DAC is monotonic if the output either increases or remains
constant as the digital input increases.
Offset Error
The deviation of the output current from the ideal of zero. For
IOUTA, 0 mA output is expected when the inputs are all 0s. For
IOUTB, 0 mA output is expected when all inputs are set to 1s.
Gain Error
The difference between the actual and ideal output span. The
actual span is determined by the output when all inputs are set
to 1s minus the output when all inputs are set to 0s.
Output Compliance Range
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
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 full-scale range (FSR) per
°C. For reference drift, the drift is reported in ppm per °C.
Glitch Impulse
Asymmetrical switching times in a DAC give rise to undesired
output transients that are quantified by a glitch impulse. It is
specified as the net area of the glitch in pV-s.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
The difference, in dB, between the rms amplitude of the output
signal and the peak spurious signal over the specified bandwidth.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic components
to the rms value of the measured input signal. It is expressed as
a percentage or in decibels (dB).
Multitone Power Ratio
The spurious-free dynamic range containing multiple carrier
tones of equal amplitude. It is measured as the difference
between the rms amplitude of a carrier tone to the peak
spurious signal in the region of a removed tone.

AD9734/AD9735/AD9736
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9736, AD9735, and AD9734 are 14-bit, 12-bit, and
10-bit DACs that run at an update rate up to 1.2 GSPS. Input
data can be accepted up to the full 1.2 GSPS rate, or a 2×
interpolation filter can be enabled (2× mode) allowing full
speed operation with a 600 MSPS input data rate. The DATA
and DATACLK_IN inputs are parallel LVDS, meeting the IEEE
reduced swing LVDS specifications with the exception of input
hysteresis. The DATACLK_IN input runs at one-half the input
DATA rate in a double data rate (DDR) format. Each edge of
DATACLK_IN transfers DATA into the AD9736, as shown in
Figure 79.
The DACCLK−/DACCLK+ inputs (Pin E1 and Pin F1) directly
drive the DAC core to minimize clock jitter. The DACCLK
signal is also divided by 2 (1× and 2× mode), then output as the
DATACLK_OUT. The DATACLK_OUT signal clocks the data
source. The DAC expects DDR LVDS data (DB<13:0>) aligned
with the DDR input clock (DATACLK_IN) from a circuit similar to the one shown in Figure 96. Table 19 shows the clock
relationships.

Maintaining correct alignment of data and clock is a common
challenge with high speed DACs, complicated by changes in
temperature and other operating conditions. Using the
DATACLK_OUT signal to generate the data allows most of the
internal process, temperature, and voltage delay variation to be
cancelled. The AD973x further simplifies this high speed data
capture problem with two adaptive closed-loop timing
controllers.
One timing controller manages the LVDS data and data clock
alignment (LVDS controller), and the other manages the LVDS
data and DACCLK alignment (sync controller).
The LVDS controller locates the data transitions and delays the
DATACLK_IN so that its transition is in the center of the valid
data window. The sync controller manages the FIFO that moves
data from the LVDS DATACLK_IN domain to the DACCLK
domain.
Both controllers can operate in manual mode under external
processor control, in surveillance mode where error conditions
generate external interrupts, or in automatic mode where errors
are automatically corrected.
The LVDS and sync controllers include moving average filtering
for noise immunity and variable thresholds to control activity.
Normally, the controllers are set to run in automatic mode,
making any necessary adjustments without dropping or duplicating samples sent to the DAC. Both controllers require initial
calibration prior to entering automatic update mode.
The AD973x analog output changes 35 DACCLK cycles after
the input data changes in 1× mode with the FIFO disabled. The
FIFO adds up to eight additional cycles of delay. This delay is
read from the SPI port. Internal clock delay variation is less
than a single DACCLK cycle at 1.2 GHz (833 ps).
Stopping the AD973x DATACLK_IN while the DACCLK is still
running can lead to unpredictable output signals. This occurs
because the internal digital signal path is interleaved. The last
two samples clocked into the DAC continue to be clocked out
by DACCLK even after DATACLK_IN has stopped. The resulting output signal is at a frequency of one-half fDAC, and the
amplitude depends on the difference between the last two
samples.
Control of the AD973x functions is via the serially programmed
registers listed in Table 9. Optionally, a limited number of functions can be directly set by external pins in pin mode.

SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE
The AD973x serial port is a flexible, synchronous serial
communications port, allowing easy interface 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 AD973x. Single- or multiple-byte transfers
are supported, as well as most significant bit first (MSB-first) or
least significant bit first (LSB-first) transfer formats. The
AD973x serial interface port can be configured as a single pin
I/O (SDIO) or two unidirectional pins for in/out (SDIO/SDO).

R/W, Bit 7 of the instruction byte, determines whether a read or
a write data transfer occurs after the instruction byte write.
Logic high indicates read operation. Logic 0 indicates a write
operation. N1, N0, Bit 6, and Bit 5 of the instruction byte
determine the number of bytes to be transferred during the data
transfer cycle. The bit decodes are shown in Table 20.
A4, A3, A2, A1, A0, Bit 4, Bit 3, Bit 2, Bit 1, and Bit 0 of the
instruction byte, determine which register is accessed during
the data transfer portion of the communications cycle. For
multibyte transfers, this address is the starting byte address. The
remaining register addresses are generated by the AD973x,
based on the LSBFIRST bit (Reg. 0, Bit 6).

The AD973x can optionally be configured via external pins
rather than the serial interface. When the PIN_MODE input
(Pin L1) is high, the serial interface is disabled and its pins are
reassigned for direct control of the DAC. Specific functionality
is described in the Pin Mode Operation section.
GENERAL OPERATION OF THE SERIAL INTERFACE
There are two phases to a communication cycle with the
AD973x. Phase 1 is the instruction cycle, which is the writing of
an instruction byte into the AD973x, coincident with the first
eight SCLK rising edges. The instruction byte provides the
AD973x serial port controller with information regarding the
data transfer cycle, which is Phase 2 of the communication
cycle. The Phase 1 instruction byte defines whether the
upcoming data transfer is read or write, the number of bytes in
the data transfer, and the starting register address for the first
byte of the data transfer. The first eight SCLK rising edges of
each communication cycle are used to write the instruction byte
into the AD973x.
The remaining SCLK edges are for Phase 2 of the communication cycle. Phase 2 is the actual data transfer between the
AD973x and the system controller. Phase 2 of the communication cycle is a transfer of 1, 2, 3, or 4 data bytes as determined
by the instruction byte. Using one multibyte transfer is the
preferred method. Single-byte data transfers are useful to
reduce CPU overhead when register access requires one byte
only. Registers change immediately upon writing to the last bit
of each transfer byte.
CSB (Chip Select) can be raised after each sequence of 8 bits
(except the last byte) to stall the bus. The serial transfer resumes
when CSB is lowered. Stalling on nonbyte boundaries resets
the SPI.

If LONG_INS = 1 (Reg. 0, Bit 4), the instruction byte is
extended to 2 bytes where the second byte provides an
additional 8 bits of address information. Address 0x00 to
Address 0x1F are equivalent in short and long instruction
modes. The AD973x does not use any addresses greater than 31
(0x1F), so always set LONG_INS = 0.
SERIAL INTERFACE PORT PIN DESCRIPTIONS
SCLK—Serial Clock
The serial clock pin is used to synchronize data to and from the
AD973x and to run the internal state machines. The maximum
frequency of SCLK is 20 MHz. All data input to the AD973x is
registered on the rising edge of SCLK. All data is driven out of
the AD973x on the rising edge of SCLK.
Rev. A | Page 36 of 72
AD9734/AD9735/AD9736
CSB—Chip Select
Active low input starts and gates a communication cycle. It
allows more than one device to be used on the same serial
communications lines. The SDO and SDIO pins go to a high
impedance state when this input is high. Chip select should stay
low during the entire communication cycle.
SDIO—Serial Data I/O
Data is always written into the AD973x on this pin. However,
this pin can be used as a bidirectional data line. The configuration of this pin is controlled by SDIO_DIR at Reg. 0, Bit 7.
The default is Logic 0, which configures the SDIO pin as
unidirectional.
SDO—Serial Data Out
Data is read from this pin for protocols that use separate lines
for transmitting and receiving data. In the case where the
AD973x operates in a single bidirectional I/O mode, this pin
does not output data and is set to a high impedance state.
MSB/LSB TRANSFERS
For multibyte transfers, writing to this register can occur during
the middle of the communication cycle. Care must be taken to
compensate for this new configuration for the remaining bytes
of the current communication cycle. The same considerations
apply to setting the software reset, RESET (Reg. 0, Bit 5). All
registers are set to their default values except Reg. 0 and Reg. 4,
which remain unchanged.
Use of only single-byte transfers when changing serial port
configurations or initiating a software reset is highly
recommended. In the event of unexpected programming
sequences, the AD973x SPI can become inaccessible. For
example, if user code inadvertently changes the LONG_INS bit
or the LSBFIRST bit, the following bits experience unexpected
results. The SPI can be returned to a known state by writing an
incomplete byte (1 to 7 bits) of all 0s followed by 3 bytes of
0x00. This returns to MSB-first short instructions
(Reg. 0 = 0x00), so the device can be reinitialized.

When LSBFIRST = 1 (LSB first), the instruction and data bytes
must be written from least significant bit to most significant bit.
Multibyte data transfers in LSB-first format start with an
instruction byte that includes the register address of the least
significant data byte followed by multiple data bytes. The serial
port internal byte address generator increments for each byte of
the multibyte communication cycle.

When LSBFIRST = 0 (MSB first), the instruction and data bytes
must be written from the most significant bit to the least

with an instruction byte that includes the register address of the
most significant data byte. Subsequent data bytes should follow
in order from high address to low address. In MSB-first mode,
the serial port internal byte address generator decrements for
each data byte of the multibyte communication cycle.

Figure 74. Timing Diagram for SPI Register Read
After the last instruction bit is written to the SDIO pin, the
driving signal must be set to a high impedance in time for the
bus to turn around. The serial output data from the AD973x is
enabled by the falling edge of SCLK. This causes the first output
data bit to be shorter than the remaining data bits, as shown in
Figure 74.
To assure proper reading of data, read the SDIO or SDO pin
prior to changing the SCLK from low to high. Due to the more
complex multibyte protocol, multiple AD973x devices cannot
be daisy-chained on the SPI bus. Multiple DACs should be
controlled by independent CSB signals.
PIN MODE OPERATION
When the PIN_MODE input (Pin L1) is set high, the SPI port is
disabled. The SPI port pins are remapped, as shown in Table 21.
The function of these pins is described in Table 22. The remaining PIN_MODE register settings are shown in Table 9.

Care must be taken when using PIN_MODE because only the
control bits shown in Table 22 can be changed. If the remaining
register default values are not suitable for the desired operation,
PIN_MODE cannot be used. If the FIFO is enabled, the
controller clock must be less than 10 MHz. This limits the DAC
clock to 160 MHz.
RESET OPERATION
The RESET pin forces all SPI register contents to their default
values (see Table 9), which places the DAC in a known state.
The software reset bit forces all SPI register contents, except
Reg. 0 and Reg. 4, to their default values.
The internal reset signal is derived from a logical OR operation
on the RESET pin state and from the software reset state. This
internal reset signal drives all SPI registers to their default
values, except Reg. 0 and Reg. 4, which are unaffected. The data
registers are not affected by either reset.
The software reset is asserted by writing 1 to Reg. 0, Bit 5. It
may be cleared on the next SPI write cycle or a later write cycle.
PROGRAMMING SEQUENCE
The AD973x registers should be programmed in this order:
1.
Reset hardware.
2.
Make changes to SPI port configuration, if necessary.
3.
Input format, if unsigned.
4.
Interpolation, if in 2× mode.
5.
Calibrate and set the LVDS controller.
6.
Enable the FIFO.
7.
Calibrate and set the sync controller.
Step 1 through Step 4 are required, while Step 5 through Step 7
are optional. The LVDS controller can help assure proper data
reception in the DAC with changes in temperature and voltage.
The sync controller manages the FIFO to assure proper transfer
of the received data to the DAC core with changes in
temperature and voltage. The DAC is intended to operate with
both controllers active unless data and clock alignment is
managed externally.

DATA INTERFACE CONTROLLERS
Two internal controllers are utilized in the operation of the
AD973x. The first controller helps maintain optimum LVDS
data sampling; the second controller helps maintain optimum
synchronization between the DACCLK and the incoming data.
The LVDS controller is responsible for optimizing the sampling
of the data from the LVDS bus (DB13:0), while the sync
controller resolves timing problems between the DAC_CLK
(CLK+, CLK−) and the DATACLK. A block diagram of these
controllers is shown in Figure 77.

The controllers are clocked with a divided-down version of the

Note that the controller clock cannot exceed 10 MHz for correct
operation. Until CCD<3:0> is properly programmed to meet
this requirement, the DAC output may not be stable. This
means the FIFO cannot be enabled in PIN_MODE unless the
DACCLK is less than 160 MHz.

LVDS SAMPLE LOGIC
A simplified diagram of the AD973x LVDS data sampling
engine is shown in Figure 78 and the timing diagram is shown
in Figure 79.
The incoming LVDS data is latched by the data sampling signal
(DSS), which is derived from DATACLK_IN. The LVDS
controller delays DATACLK_IN to create the data sampling
signal (DSS), which is adjusted to sample the LVDS data in the
center of the valid data window. The skew between the
DATACLK_IN and the LVDS data bits (DB<13:0>) must be
minimal for proper operation. Therefore, it is recommended
that the DATACLK_IN be generated in the same manner as the
LVDS data bits (DB<13:0>) with the same driver and data lines
(that is, it should just be another LVDS data bit running a
constant 01010101… sequence, as shown in Figure 96).
If the DATACLK_IN signal is stopped, the DACCLK continues
to generate an output signal based on the last two values
clocked into the registers that drive D1 and D2, as shown in
Figure 78. If these two registers are not equal, a large output at a
frequency of one-half fDAC can be generated at the DAC output.
The internal DSS delay must be calibrated to optimize the data
sample timing. Once calibrated, the AD973x generates an IRQ
or automatically corrects its timing if temperature or voltage
variations change the timing too much. This calibration is done
using the delayed clock sampling signal (CSS) to sample the
delayed clock signal (DCS). The LVDS sampling logic finds the
edges of the DATACLK_IN signal and, from this measurement,
the center of the valid data window is located.
The internal delay line that derives the delayed DSS from
DATACLK_IN is controlled by SD3:0 (Reg. 5, Bits 7:4), while
the DCS is controlled by MSD3:0 (Reg. 4, Bits 7:4), and the CSS
is controlled by MHD3:0 (Reg. 4, Bits 3:0).
DATACLK_IN transitions must be time aligned with the LVDS
data (DB<13:0>) transitions. This allows the CSS, derived from
the DATACLK_IN, to find the valid data window of DB<13:0>
by locating the DATACLK_IN edges. The latching (rising) edge
of CSS is initially placed using Bits SD<3:0> and can then be
shifted to the left using MSD<3:0> and to the right using
MHD<3:0>. When CSS samples the DCS and the result is 1
(which can be read back via the check bit at Reg. 5, Bit 0), the
sampling occurs in the correct data cycle.

To find the leading edge of the data cycle, increment the
measured setup delay until the check bit goes low. To find the
trailing edge, increment the measured hold delay (MHD) until
check goes low. Always set MHD = 0 when incrementing MSD
and vice versa.

DATACLK_IN (and data) transition, as shown in Figure 80.
With SD<3:0> and MSD<3:0> set to 0, increment the hold time
delay (MHD<3:0>, Reg. 4, Bits 3:0) until the check bit (Reg. 5,
Bit 0) goes low and record this value. This locates the trailing
DATACLK_IN (and DB<13:0>) transition, as shown in Figure
81.
Figure 81. Hold Delay Measurement
OPERATING THE LVDS CONTROLLER IN
SURVEILLANCE AND AUTO MODE
In surveillance mode, the controller searches for the edges of
the data eye in the same manner as in the manual mode of
operation and triggers an interrupt if the clock sampling signal
(CSS) has moved more than the threshold value set by
LTRH<1:0> (Reg. 6, Bits 1:0).
There is an internal filter that averages the setup and hold time
measurements to filter out noise and glitches on the clock lines.
Average Value = (MHD – MSD)/2
New Average = Average Value + (Δ Average/2 ^ LFLT<3:0>)
Once both DATACLK_IN edges are located, the sample delay
(SD<3:0>, Reg. 5, Bits 7:4) must be updated by
Sample Delay = (MHD − MSD)/2
If an accumulating error in the average value causes it to exceed
the threshold value (LTHR<1:0>), an interrupt is issued.
After updating SD<3:0>, verify that the sampling signal is in the
middle of the valid data window by adjusting both MHD and
MSD with the new sample delay until the check bit goes low.
The new MHD and MSD values should be equal to or within
one unit delay if SD<3:0> was set correctly.
MHD and MSD may not be equal to or within one unit delay if
the external clock jitter and noise exceeds the internal delay
resolution. Differences of 2, 3, or more are possible and can
require more filtering to provide stable operation.
The sample delay calibration should be performed prior to
enabling surveillance mode or auto mode.
SETUP TIME (tS)
DB<13:0>
DATACLK_IN
The maximum allowable value for LFLT<3:0> is 12. If
LFLT<3:0> is too small, clock jitter and noise can cause erratic
behavior. In most cases, LFLT can be set to the maximum value.
In surveillance mode, the ideal sampling point should first be
found using manual mode and then applied to the sample delay
registers. Set the threshold and filter values depending on how
far the CSS signal is allowed to drift before an interrupt occurs.
Then, set the surveillance bit high (Reg. 6, Bit 7) and monitor
the interrupt signal either via the SPI port (Reg. 1, Bit 7) or the
IRQ pin.
In auto mode, follow the same steps to set up the sample delay,
threshold, and filter length. To run the controller in auto mode,
both the LAUTO (Reg. 6, Bit 6) and LSURV (Reg. 6, Bit 7) bits
need to be set to 1. In auto mode, the LVDS interrupt should be
set low (Reg. 1, Bit 3) to allow the sample delay to be automatically updated if the threshold value is exceeded.

SYNC LOGIC AND CONTROLLER
A FIFO structure is utilized to synchronize the data transfer
between the DACCLK and the DATACLK_IN clock domains.
The sync controller writes data from DB<13:0> into an 8-word
memory register based on a cyclic write counter clocked by the
DSS, which is a delayed version of DACCLK_IN. The data is
read out of the memory based on a second cyclic read counter
clocked by DACCLK. The 8-word FIFO shown in Figure 82
provides sufficient margin to maintain proper timing under
most conditions. The sync logic is designed to prevent the read
and write pointers from crossing. If the timing drifts far enough
to require an update of the phase offset (PHOF<1:0>), two
samples are duplicated or dropped. Figure 83 shows the timing
diagram for the sync logic.

To start operating the DAC in manual mode, allow DACCLK
and DATACLK_IN to stabilize, then enable FIFO mode (Reg. 0,
Bit 2). Read FIFOSTAT<2:0> (Reg. 7, Bits 6:4) to determine if
adjustment is needed. For example, if FIFOSTAT<2:0> = 6, the
timing is not yet critical, but it is not optimal.
To return to an optimal state (FIFOSTAT<2:0> = 4), the
PHOF<1:0> (Reg. 7, Bits 1:0) needs to be set to 1. Setting
PHOF<1:0> = 1 effectively increments the read pointer by 2.
This causes the write pointer value to be captured two clocks
later, decreasing FIFOSTAT<2:0> from 6 to 4.
OPERATION IN SURVEILLANCE AND AUTO MODES
Once FIFOSTAT<2:0> is manually placed in an optimal state,
the AD973x sync logic can run in surveillance or auto mode. To
start, turn on surveillance mode by setting SSURV = 1 (Reg. 8,
Bit 7), then enable the sync interrupt (Reg. 1, Bit 2).
If STRH<0> = 0 (Reg. 8, Bit 0), an interrupt occurs if
FIFOSTAT<2:0> = 0 or 7. If STRH<0> = 1 (Reg. 8, Bit 0), an
interrupt occurs if FIFOSTAT<2:0> = 0, 1, 6, or 7. The interrupt
is read at Reg. 1, Bit 6 at the AD973x IRQ pin.

SYNC LOGIC AND CONTROLLER OPERATION
The relationship between the readout pointer and the write
pointer initially is unknown because the startup relationship
between DACCLK and DATACLK_IN is unknown. The sync
logic measures the relative phase between the two counters with
the zero detect block and the flip-flop in Figure 82. The relative
phase is returned in FIFOSTAT<2:0> (Reg. 7, Bits 6:4), and sync
logic errors are indicated by FIFOSTAT<3> (Reg. 7, Bit 7). If
FIFOSTAT<2:0> returns a value of 0 or 7, the memory is
sampling in a critical state (read and write pointers are close to
crossing).
If the FIFOSTAT<2:0> returns a value of 3 or 4, the memory is
sampling at the optimal state (read and write pointers are
farthest apart). If FIFOSTAT<2:0> returns a critical value, the
pointer can be adjusted with the phase offset PHOF<1:0> (Reg.
7, Bits 1:0). Due to the architecture of the FIFO, the phase offset
can only adjust the read pointer in steps of 2.
To enter auto mode, complete the preceding steps then set
SAUTO = 1 (Reg. 8, Bit 6). Next, set the sync interrupt = 0
(Reg. 1, Bit 2), to allow the phase offset (PHOF<1:0>) to be
automatically updated if FIFOSTAT<2:0> violates the threshold
value. The FIFOSTAT signal is filtered to improve noise
immunity and reduce unnecessary phase offset updates. The
filter operates with the following algorithm:
FIFOSTAT = FIFOSTAT + ΔFIFOSTAT/2 ^ SFLT<3:0>
where:
0 ≤ SFLT<3:0> ≤ 12
Values greater than 12 are set to 12. If SFLT<3:0> is too small,
clock jitter and noise can cause erratic behavior. Normally, SFLT
can be set to the maximum value.
FIFO BYPASS
When the FIFO_MODE bit (Reg. 1, Bit 2) is set to 0, the FIFO
is bypassed with a mux. When the FIFO is enabled, the pipeline
delay through the AD973x increases by the delta between the
FIFO read pointer and write pointer plus 4 more clock periods.

DIGITAL BUILT-IN SELF TEST (BIST)
OVERVIEW
Placing the idle value on the data input also allows the BIST to
be set up while the DAC clock is running. The idle value should
be all 0s in unsigned mode (0x0000) and all 0s except for the
MSB in twos complement mode (0x2000).
The AD973x includes an internal signature generator that
processes incoming data to create unique signatures. These
signatures are read back from the SPI port, allowing verification
of correct data transfer into the AD973x. BIST vectors provided
on the AD973x-EB evaluation board CD check the full width
data input or individual bits for PCB debug, utilizing the
procedure in the AD973X BIST Procedure section. Alternatively, any vector can be used provided the expected signature is
calculated in advance.
The BIST consists of two stages; the first stage is after the LVDS
receiver and the second stage is after the FIFO. The first BIST
stage verifies correct sampling of the data from the LVDS bus
while the second BIST stage verifies correct synchronization
between the DAC_CLK domain and the DATACLK_IN
domain. The BIST vector is generated using 32-bit LFSR
signature logic. Because the internal architecture is a 2-bus
parallel system, there are two 32-bit LFSR signature logic blocks
on both the LVDS and SYNC blocks. Figure 84 shows where the
LVDS and SYNC phases are located.
The MATLAB® routine, in the Generating Expected Signatures
section, calculates the expected signature. BIST verifies correct
data transfer because not all errors are always evident on a
spectrum analyzer. There are four BIST signature generators
that can be read back using Reg. 18 to Reg. 21, based on the
setting of the BIST selection bits (Reg. 17, Bits 7:6), as shown in
Table 24. The BIST signature returned from the AD973x
depends on the digital input during the test. Because the filters
in the DAC have memory, it is important to put the correct idle
value on the DATA input to flush the memory prior to reading
the BIST signature.

GENERATING EXPECTED SIGNATURES
To generate the expected BIST signatures, follow this procedure:
The following MATLAB code duplicates the internal logic of
the AD973x. To use it, save this code in a file called bist.m.
1.
--- begin bist.m --function [ ret1 , ret2] = bist(vec)
ret1 = bist1(vec(1:2:length(vec)-1));
ret2 = bist1(vec(2:2:length(vec)));
function ret = bist1(v)
sum = zeros(1,32);
for i = 1 :length(v)
if v(i) ~= 0
su(1) = ~xor(sum(32) ,bitget(v(i),1));
su(2) = ~xor(sum(1) ,bitget(v(i),2));
su(3) = ~xor(sum(2) ,bitget(v(i),3));
su(4) = ~xor(sum(3) ,bitget(v(i),4));
su(5) = ~xor(sum(4) ,bitget(v(i),5));
su(6) = ~xor(sum(5) ,bitget(v(i),6));
su(7) = ~xor(sum(6) ,bitget(v(i),7));
su(8) = ~xor(sum(7) ,bitget(v(i),8));
su(9) = ~xor(sum(8) ,bitget(v(i),9));
su(10) = ~xor(sum(9) ,bitget(v(i),10));
su(11) = ~xor(sum(10) ,bitget(v(i),11));
su(12) = ~xor(sum(11) ,bitget(v(i),12));
su(13) = ~xor(sum(12) ,bitget(v(i),13));
su(14) = ~xor(sum(13) ,bitget(v(i),14));
su(15) = sum(14); su(16) = sum(15);
su(17) = sum(16); su(18) = sum(17);
su(19) = sum(18); su(20) = sum(19);
su(21) = sum(20); su(22) = sum(21);
su(23) = sum(22); su(24) = sum(23);
su(25) = sum(24); su(26) = sum(25);
su(27) = sum(26); su(28) = sum(27);
su(29) = sum(28); su(30) = sum(29);
su(31) = sum(30); su(32) = sum(31);
sum = su;
end
end % for ret = dec2hex( 2.^[0:31]× sum',8);
--- end bist.m ---
Start MATLAB and type the following at the command
prompt:
t = round(randn(1,100) × 213/8+213) ;
[ b1 b2 ] = bist(t)
The first statement creates a random vector of 14-bit
words, with a length of 100.
2.
Set t equal to any desired vector, or take this random vector
and input it to the AD973x.
3.
Alter the command randn(1,100) to change the vector
length as desired.
4.
Type b1 at the command line to see the calculated
signature for the LVDS BIST, Phase 1.
5.
Type b2 to see the value for LVDS BIST, Phase 2.
The values returned for b1 and b2 each are 32-bit hex values.
They correspond to Reg. 18, Reg. 19, Reg. 20, and Reg. 21,
where b1 is the value read for SEL<1:0> = 0, 0 (see Table 17)
and b2 is the value read for SEL<1:0> = 0, 1.
When the DAC is in 1× mode, the signature at SYNC BIST,
Phase 1 should equal the signature at LVDS BIST, Phase 1. The
same is true for Phase 2.

CROSS CONTROLLER REGISTERS
Figure 85 shows the effect of UPDEL and DNDEL.
If the system is calibrated after manufacture, adjust the cross
controller offsets to provide optimum performance. To start,
increment DNDEL<5:0> (Reg. 11, Bits 5:0) while observing
HD2 (second harmonic distortion) and/or IMD to find the
desired optimum. If DNDEL does not influence the performance, set it to 0 and increment UPDEL<5:0> (Reg. 10, Bits 5:0).
Based on system characterization, set one of these controls to
the maximum value to yield the best performance.

With MSEL <1:0> (Reg. 14, Bits 7:6), the user can adjust the
noise contribution of the internal current mirror to optimize
the 1/f noise. Figure 87 shows MSEL vs. the 1/f noise with
20 mA full-scale current into a 50 Ω resistor.
The reference current is obtained by forcing the band gap
voltage across an external 10 kΩ resistor from I120 (Pin B14) to
ground. The 1.2 V nominal band gap voltage (VREF) generates a
120 μA reference current in the 10 kΩ resistor. This current is
adjusted digitally by FSC<9:0> (Reg. 2, Reg. 3) to set the output

30 mA for register values from 0x000 to 0x3FF. The default
value of 0x200 generates 20 mA full scale. The typical range is
shown in Figure 89.
VREF (Pin C14) must be bypassed to ground with a 1 nF
capacitor. The band gap voltage is present on this pin and can
be buffered for use in external circuitry. The typical output
impedance is near 5 kΩ. If desired, an external reference can be
used to overdrive the internal reference by connecting it to the
VREF pin.

A simple bias network for generating VCM is shown in

If a clean sine clock is available, it can be transformer-coupled
to DACCLK, as shown in Figure 107. Use of a CMOS or TTL
clock can also be acceptable for lower sample rates. It is routed
through a CMOS to LVDS translator, then ac-coupled, as
described previously. Alternatively, it can be transformercoupled and clamped, as shown in Figure 91.

The DACCLK input requires a low jitter differential drive
signal. It is a PMOS input differential pair powered from the
1.8 V supply, so it is important to maintain the specified 400 mV
input common-mode voltage. Each input pin can safely swing
from 200 mV p-p to 800 mV p-p about the 400 mV commonmode voltage. While these input levels are not directly LVDS
compatible, DACCLK can be driven by an offset ac-coupled
LVDS signal, as shown in Figure 90.
AD9734/AD9735/AD9736
DAC OUTPUT DISTORTION SOURCES
This is the configuration implemented on the evaluation board
(Figure 107). The 20 Ω series resistors allow the DAC to drive a
less reactive load, which improves distortion. Further improvement
is realized by adding the Balun T3 to help provide an equal load
to both DAC outputs.
The DAC architecture inherently generates third harmonics, the
levels of which depend on the output frequency and amplitude
generated. If any output signal is rectified and coupled back
onto the DAC clock, it can generate additional third-harmonic
energy.
The distortion components should be identical in amplitude
and phase at both AD973x outputs. Even though each singleended output includes a large amount of second-harmonic
energy, a careful differential-to-single-ended conversion can
remove most of it. Optimum performance at high intermediate
frequency (IF) output is obtained with the output circuit shown
in Figure 93.

The second harmonic is mostly due to an imbalance in the
output load. The dc transfer characteristic of the DAC is capable
of second harmonic distortion of at least −75 dBc. Output load
imbalance or digital data noise coupling onto DACCLK causes
additional second harmonic distortion.
Figure 93. IF Signal Output Circuit
Because T1 has a differential input, but a single-ended output,
Pin 4 of T1 has a higher capacitance to ground due to parasitics
to Pin 3. T1 Pin 6 has lower parasitic capacitance to ground
because it drives 50 Ω at Pin 1. This presents an unbalanced
load to the DAC output, so T3 is added to improve the load
balancing. Refer to Figure 107 for the transformer part numbers.

In some cases, it may be desirable to dc-couple the AD973x
output. The best method for doing this is shown in Figure 94.
This circuit can be used with voltage or current feedback
amplifiers. Because the DAC output current is driving a virtual
ground, this circuit may offer enhanced settling times. The
settling time is limited by the op amp rather than by the DAC.
This circuit is intended for use where the amplifiers can be
powered by a bipolar supply.

DAC DATA SOURCES
The circuit shown in Figure 96 allows optimum data alignment
when running the AD973x at full speed. This circuit can be
easily implemented in the FPGA or ASIC used to drive the
digital input. It is important to use the DATACLK_OUT signal
because it helps to cancel some of the timing errors. In this
configuration, DATACLK_OUT generates the DDR LVDS
DATACLK_IN to drive the AD973x. The circuit aligns the
DATACLK_IN and the digital input data (DB<13:0>) as
required by the AD973x. The LVDS controller in the AD973x
uses DATACLK_IN to generate the internal DSS to capture the
incoming data in the center of the valid data window.
To operate in 2× mode, the circuit in Figure 96 must be
modified to include a divide-by-2 block in the path of
DATACLK_OUT. Without this additional divider, the data and
DATACLK_IN runs 2× too fast. DATACLK_OUT is always
DACCLK/2.
Contact FPGA vendors directly regarding the maximum output
data rates supported by their products.

AD9734/AD9735/AD9736
INPUT DATA TIMING
The AD973x is intended to operate with the LVDS and sync
controllers running to compensate for timing drift due to
voltage and temperature variations. In this mode, the key to
correct data capture is to present valid data for a minimum
amount of time. The AD973x minimum valid data time is
measured by increasing the input data rate to the point of
failure. The nominal supply voltages are used and the
temperature is set to the worst case of 85°C. The input
data is verified via the BIST signature registers, because the
DAC output does not run as fast as the input data logic. The
following example explains how the minimum data valid
period is calculated for the typical performance case.
The ability of the AD973x to capture incoming data is
dependent on the speed of the silicon, which varies from lot to
lot. The typical (or average) silicon speed operates with data
that is valid for 225 ps at 85°C. Statistically, the worst extreme
for slow silicon may require up to a 344 ps valid data period, as
specified in Table 2.
Table 27. Typical Minimum Data Valid Times
Differential Input
Voltage
400 mV
250 mV
These factors must be considered in determining the minimum
valid data window at the receiver input:
• Data rise and fall times: 100 ps (rise + fall)
• Internal clock jitter: 10 ps
(DATACLK_OUT + DATACLK_IN)
• Bit-to-bit skew: 50 ps
• Bit-to-DATACLK_IN skew: 50 ps
• Internal data sampling signal resolution: 80 ps
For nominal silicon, the BIST typically indicates failure at
2.15 GSPS or a DACCLK period of 465 ps. The valid data
window is calculated by subtracting all the other variables
from the total data period:
Minimum Data Valid Time = DACCLK Period − Data Rise −
Data Fall − Jitter − Bit-to-Bit Skew − Bit-to-DATACLK_IN Skew
− Data Sampling Signal Resolution

Typ Min Data

225 ps
260 ps
At 1.2 GHz, the typical 400 mV p-p minimum data valid period
of 225 ps leaves 608 ps for external factors. Under the same
conditions, the worst expected minimum data valid period of
344 ps leaves 489 ps for external data uncertainty.
The 100 mV LVDS VOD threshold test is a dc test to verify that
the input logic state changes. It does not indicate the operating
speed. The ability of the receiver to recover the data depends on
the input signal overdrive. With a 250 mV input, there is a
150 mV overdrive, and with a 400 mV signal, there is a 300 mV
overdrive. The relationship between overdrive level and timing
is very nonlinear. Higher levels of overdrive result in smaller
minimum valid data windows.
For typical silicon, decreasing the LVDS swing from 400 mV p-p
to 250 mV p-p requires the minimum data valid period to
increase by 15%. This is illustrated in Figure 100.
225ps
For the 400 mV p-p LVDS signal case:
400mV
Minimum Data Valid = 465 ps − 100 ps − 10 ps − 50 ps −
80 ps = 465 ps − 240 ps = 225 ps
260ps
04862-098
250mV
For correct data capture, the input data must be valid for 225 ps.
Slower edges, more jitter, or more skew require an increase in
the clock period to maintain the minimum data valid period.
Table 27 shows the typical minimum data valid period (tMDE) for
400 mV p-p differential and 250 mV p-p differential LVDS swings.
Figure 100. Typical Minimum Valid Data Time (tMDE) vs. LVDS Swing
The minimum valid data window changes with temperature,
voltage, and process. The maximum value presented in the
specification table was determined from a 6σ distribution in the
worst-case conditions.

AD9734/AD9735/AD9736
SYNCHRONIZATION TIMING
When more than one AD973x must be synchronized or when
a constant group delay must be maintained, the internal
controllers cannot be used. If the FIFO is enabled, the delay
between multiple AD973x devices is unknown. If the
DATACLK_OUT from multiple devices is used, there is an
uncertainty of two DACCLK periods because the initial phase
of DATACLK_OUT with respect to DACCLK cannot be
controlled. This means one DAC must be used to provide
DATACLK_OUT for all synchronized DACs and all timing
must be externally managed. The following timing information
allows system timing to be calculated so that multiple AD973xs
can be synchronized.
DATACLK_OUT changes relative to the rising edge of
DACCLK+ and is delayed, as shown in Figure 101. Because
DACCLK is divided by 2 to create DATACLK_OUT, the phase
of DATACLK_OUT can be 0° or 180°. There is no way to
predict or control this relationship. It can be different after each
power cycle and is not affected by hardware or software resets.

04862-099
DATACLK_OUT
Figure 101. DACCLK to DATACLK_OUT Delay
The incoming data is de-interleaved internally as shown in
Figure 78. In Figure 78, DBU (upper) and DBL (lower) represent
the de-interleaved data paths. Each edge of DATACLK_IN
latches an incoming sample in two alternating registers. The
DATACLK_IN to data setup and hold definitions are illustrated
in Figure 102. All the data input must be valid during the setupand-hold period. External skew effectively increases the setup
and hold times that the data source must meet.
DATACLK_IN
OR DATACLK_OUT
While correct DATA_IN vs. DATACLK_IN timing is critical,
the transition of the incoming data to the DACCLK domain is
equally critical. By referencing the incoming DATA and
DATACLK_IN timing to the DATACLK_OUT signal, some
timing uncertainty can be removed. The DATACLK_OUT
timing very closely tracks the timing of the DACCLKcontrolled registers. Any variation in the path delay affects both
paths in almost the same way. If DATACLK_OUT is not used,
the full DACCLK to DATACLK_OUT path variation reduces
the external timing margin. Figure 101 shows a simplified view
of the internal clocking scheme with the relevant delay paths.
The internal architecture is interleaved such that each phase has
twice as long to make the transition across the clock domains.
This results in an extremely narrow window where the
incoming data must be held stable.
Table 28 shows the timing parameters for Figure 101 and
Figure 102. These parameters were measured for a sample of
five devices from five silicon lots. Worst-case fast and slow skew
lots were included in addition to the nominal (or average) lot.
The typical −40°C to typical +85°C spread illustrates the
variability with temperature for a single lot. Adding in lot-to-lot
variation with the fast and slow lots indicates the worst-case
spread in timing.
The timing varies such that all of the parameters move in the
same direction. For example, if the DATACLK_IN to data setup
time is fast, the hold time is similarly fast. The DACCLK to
DATACLK_OUT delay and the DATACLK_OUT to data setup
and hold is also at the fast end of the range.
Note that the polarities of setup-and-hold values in Table 28
conform to the standard convention of setup time occurring
prior to the latching edge and hold time occurring after the
latching edge, as shown in Figure 102.
