AD AD10242BZ

a
Dual, 12-Bit, 40 MSPS MCM A/D Converter
with Analog Input Signal Conditioning
AD10242
The AD10242 operates with ± 5.0 V for the analog signal conditioning with a separate +5.0 V supply for the analog-to-digital
conversion. Each channel is completely independent allowing
operation with independent encode or analog inputs. The
AD10242 also offers the user a choice of analog input signal
ranges to minimize additional signal conditioning required for
multiple functions within a single system. The heart of the
AD10242 is the AD9042 which is designed specifically for applications requiring wide dynamic range.

MIL-PRF-38534 MCM line and is completely qualified. Units
are packaged in a custom cofired ceramic 68-lead gull wing
package and specified for operation from –55°C to +125°C.
Contact the factory for additional custom options including
those which allow the user to ac couple the ADC directly, bypassing the front end amplifier section. Also see the AD9042
data sheet for additional details on ADC performance.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD10242 is a complete dual signal chain solution including
onboard amplifiers, references, ADCs, and output buffering providing unsurpassed total system performance. Each channel is

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 the AD10242 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.

Overvoltage Recovery Time
DEFINITION OF SPECIFICATIONS
Analog Bandwidth
The amount of time required for the converter to recover to
0.02% accuracy after an analog input signal of the specified percentage of full scale is reduced to midscale.
The analog input frequency at which the spectral power of the
fundamental frequency (as determined by the FFT analysis) is
reduced by 3 dB.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio
The ratio of a change in input offset voltage to a change in
power supply voltage.
Aperture Delay
The delay between the 50% point of the rising edge of the
ENCODE command and the instant at which the analog input
is sampled.
Signal-to-Noise-and-Distortion (SINAD)
The sample-to-sample variation in aperture delay.
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set at 1 dB below full
scale) to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components, including harmonics but excluding dc.
Differential Nonlinearity
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (without Harmonics)
The deviation of any code from an ideal 1 LSB step.
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set at 1 dB below full
scale) to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components, excluding the first five harmonics and dc.
Aperture Uncertainty (Jitter)
Encode Pulse Width/Duty Cycle
Pulse width high is the minimum amount of time that the
ENCODE pulse should be left in logic “1” state to achieve rated
performance; pulse width low is the minimum time ENCODE
pulse should be left in low state. At a given clock rate, these
specs define an acceptable Encode duty cycle.
Harmonic Distortion
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the
worst harmonic component.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the
peak spurious spectral component. The peak spurious component may or may not be a harmonic. May be reported in dBc
(i.e., degrades as signal levels is lowered) or in dBFS (always related back to converter full scale).
Transient Response
Integral Nonlinearity
The deviation of the transfer function from a reference line measured in fractions of 1 LSB using a “best straight line” determined by a least square curve fit.
The time required for the converter to achieve 0.02% accuracy
when a one-half full-scale step function is applied to the analog
input.
Two-Tone Intermodulation Distortion Rejection
The ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value
of the worst third order intermodulation product; reported in
dBc.
Minimum Conversion Rate
The encode rate at which the SNR of the lowest analog signal
frequency drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed
limit.
Two-Tone SFDR
The ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value
of the peak spurious component. The peak spurious component may or may not be an IMD product. May be reported
in dBc (i.e., degrades as signal levels is lowered) or in dBFS
(always related back to converter full scale).
Maximum Conversion Rate
The encode rate at which parametric testing is performed.
Output Propagation Delay
The delay between the 50% point of the rising edge of ENCODE
command and the time when all output data bits are within
valid logic levels.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Refer to the block diagram. The AD10242 employs three
monolithic ADI components per channel (AD9631, OP279, and
AD9042), along with multiple passive resistor networks and decoupling capacitors to fully integrate a complete 12-bit analogto-digital converter.
APPLYING THE AD10242
Encoding the AD10242
The AD10242 is designed to interface with TTL and CMOS
logic families. The source used to drive the ENCODE pin(s)
must be clean and free from jitter. Sources with excessive jitter
will limit SNR and overall performance.
The input signal is first passed through a precision laser
trimmed resistor divider allowing the user to externally select
operation with a full scale signal of ± 0.5 V, ± 1.0 V, or ± 2.0 V by
choosing the proper input terminal for the application. The result
of the resistor divider is to apply a full-scale input of approximately 0.4 V to the noninverting input of the internal AD9631
amplifier.
The AD9631 provides the dc coupled level shift circuit required
for operation with the AD9042 ADC. Configuring the amplifier
in a noninverting mode the ac signal gain can be trimmed to
provide a constant input to the ADC centered around the internal reference voltage of the AD9042. This allows the converter
to be used in multiple system applications without the need for
external gain and level shift circuitry normally requiring trim.
The AD9631 was chosen for its superior ac performance and input drive capabilities which have limited the ability of many amplifiers to drive high performance ADCs. As new amplifiers are
developed, pin compatible improvements are planned to incorporate the latest operational amplifier technology.
The OP279 provides the buffer and inversion of the internal reference of the AD9042 in order to supply the summing node of
the AD9631 input amplifier. This dc voltage is then summed
with the input voltage and applied to the input of the AD9042
ADC. The reference voltage of the AD9042 is designed to track
internal offsets and drifts of the ADC and is used to ensure
matching over an extended temperature range of operation.

Figure 20. Single-Ended TTL/CMOS Encode
The AD10242 encode inputs are connected to a differential input stage (see Figure 4 under EQUIVALENT CIRCUITS).
With no input connected to either the ENCODE or input, the
voltage divider bias the inputs to 1.6 volts. For TTL or CMOS
usage, the encode source should be connected to ENCODE
(Pins 29 and/or 51). ENCODE (Pins 28 and/or 52) should be
decoupled using a low inductance or microwave chip capacitor
to ground. Devices such as AVX 05085C103MA15, a
0.01 µF capacitor, work well.
Performance Improvements
It is possible to improve the performance of the AD10242
slightly by taking advantage of the internal characteristics of the
amplifier and converter combination. By increasing the +5 V
supply slightly, the user may be able to gain up to a 5 dB improvement in SFDR over the entire frequency range of the converter.
It is not recommended to exceed +5.5 V on the analog supplies
as there are no performance benefits beyond that range and care
should be taken to avoid the absolute maximum ratings.

If a logic threshold other than the nominal 1.6 V is required,
the following equations show how to use an external resistor,
RX, to raise or lower the trip point (see Figure 4, R1 = 17 kΩ,
R2 = 8 kΩ).

If no TTL source is available, a clean sine wave may be substituted. In the case of the sine source, the matching network is

While the single ended encode will work well for many applications, driving the encode differentially will provide increased
performance. Depending on circuit layout and system noise, a
1 dB to 3 dB improvement in SNR can be realized. It is recommended that the encode signal be ac-coupled into the ENCODE
and ENCODE pins.
As a final alternative, the ECL gate may be replaced by an ECL
comparator. The input to the comparator could then be a logic
signal or a sine signal.

The simplest option is shown below. The low jitter TTL signal
is coupled with a limiting resistor, typically 100 Ω, to the primary side of an RF transformer (these transformers are inexpensive and readily available; Part No. in figure is from MiniCircuits). The secondary side is connected to the ENCODE
and ENCODE pins of the converter. Since both encode inputs
are self-biased, no additional components are required.

USING THE FLEXIBLE INPUT
The AD10242 has been designed with the user’s ease of operation in mind. Multiple input configurations have been included
on board to allow the user to have a choice of input signal levels
and input impedance. While the standard inputs are ± 0.5 V,
± 1.0 V, and ± 2.0 V, the user can select the input impedance of
the AD10242 on any input by using the other inputs as alternate
locations for GND or an external resistor. The following
chart summarizes the impedance options available at each
input location:
AIN1 = 100 Ω when AIN2 and AIN3 Are Open.
AIN1 = 75 Ω when AIN3 Is Shorted to GND.
AIN1 = 50 Ω when AIN2 Is Shorted to GND.
AIN2 = 200 Ω when AIN3 Is Open.
AIN2 = 100 Ω when AIN3 Is Shorted to GND.
AIN2 = 75 Ω when AIN2 to AIN3 Has an External Resistor of
AIN2 = 300 Ω, with AIN 3 Shorted to GND.
AIN2 = 50 Ω when AIN2 to AIN3 Has an External Resistor of
AIN2 = 100 Ω, with AIN3 Shorted to GND.
AIN3 = 400 Ω.
AIN3 = 100 Ω when AIN3 Has an External Resistor of 133 Ω to GND.
AIN3 = 75 Ω when AIN3 Has an External Resistor of 92 Ω to GND.
AIN3 = 50 Ω when AIN3 Has an External Resistor of 57 Ω to GND.
While the Analog inputs of the AD10242 are designed for dc
coupled bipolar inputs, the AD10242 has the ability to use unipolar inputs in a user selectable mode through the addition of a
external resistor. This allows for 1 V, 2 V, and 4 V full-scale
unipolar signals to be applied to the various inputs (AIN1, AIN2,
and AIN3 respectively). Placing a 2.43 kΩ resistor (typical, offset calibration required) between UPOS and UCOM shifts the
reference voltage setpoint to allow a unipolar positive voltage
to be applied at the inputs of the device. To calibrate offset a
midscale dc voltage should be applied to the converter while
adjusting the unipolar resistor for a midscale output transition.

GROUNDING AND DECOUPLING
Analog and Digital Grounding
Proper grounding is essential in any high speed, high resolution
system. Multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs) are recommended to provide optimal grounding and power schemes. The
use of ground and power planes offers distinct advantages:
1. The minimization of the loop area encompassed by a signal
and its return path.
2. The minimization of the impedance associated with ground
and power paths.
3. The inherent distributed capacitor formed by the power
plane, PCB insulation, and ground plane.
These characteristics result in both a reduction of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and an overall improvement in
performance.
It is important to design a layout that prevents noise from coupling to the input signal. Digital signals should not be run in
parallel with input signal traces and should be routed away from
the input circuitry. The AD10242 does not distinguish between
analog and digital ground pins as the AD10242 should always
be treated like an analog component. All ground pins should be
connected together directly under the AD10242. The PCB
should have a ground plane covering all unused portions of the
component side of the board to provide a low impedance path
and manage the power and ground currents. The ground plane
should be removed from the area near the input pins to reduce
stray capacitance.

Figure 27. Unipolar Positive
To operate with –1 V, –2 V, or –4 V full-scale unipolar signals
place a 2.67 kΩ resistor (typical, offset calibration required)
between UNEG and UCOM. This again shifts the reference
voltage setpoint to allow a unipolar negative voltage to be
applied at the inputs of the device. To calibrate offset a midscale dc voltage should be applied to the converter while adjusting the unipolar resistor for a midscale output transition.
The schematic of the evaluation board (Figure 29) represents a
typical implementation of the AD10242. The pinout of the
AD10242 is very straightforward and facilitates ease of use
and the implementation of high frequency/high resolution
design practices. It is recommended that high quality ceramic
chip capacitors be used to decouple each supply pin to
ground directly at the device. All capacitors except the one
placed on ENCODE can be standard high quality ceramic chip
capacitors. The capacitor used on ENCODE pin must be a low
inductance chip capacitor as referenced previously in the data
sheet.

AD10242
Care should be taken when placing the digital output runs.
Because the digital outputs have such a high slew rate, the
capacitive loading on the digital outputs should be minimized.
Circuit traces for the digital outputs should be kept short and
connect directly to the receiving gate. Internal circuitry buffers
the outputs of the AD9042 ADC through a resistor network to
eliminate the need to externally isolate the device from the
receiving gate.
EVALUATION BOARD
The AD10242 evaluation board (see Figure 30) is designed to
provide optimal performance for evaluation of the AD10242
analog-to-digital converter. The board encompasses everything
needed to ensure the highest level of performance for evaluating
the AD10242.
Power to the analog supply pins is connected via banana jacks.
The analog supply powers the crystal oscillator, the associated
components and amplifiers, and the analog section of the
AD10242. The Digital outputs of the AD10242 are powered
via Pin 1 of either J9 or J10 found on the digital interface connector. To power the evaluation board with one +5 V supply a
jumper wire is required from test point E1 to E4. Contact the
factory if additional layout or applications assistance is required.
