GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9912 is a direct digital synthesizer (DDS) featuring an
integrated 14-bit DAC. The AD9912 features a 48–bit
frequency tuning word (FTW) which can synthesize
frequencies in step sizes no larger than 4 uHz. Absolute
frequency accuracy can be achieved by adjusting the DAC
system clock.
The AD9912 also features an integrated system clock PLL,
which allows reference clocks as low as 25 MHz.
The AD9912 operates over an industrial temperature range,
spanning -40°C to +85°C.

System Clock Input. Can be LVPECL or Crystal input, depending on CLKMODESEL pin.
Complementary System Clock: Complementary signal to the input provided on pin 27
System Clock Multiplier Loop Filter: When using the frequency multiplier to drive the
System Clock, an external loop filter must be constructed and attached to this pin.
Clock Mode Select. Set to GND when using a crystal. Pull up to 1.8V when using either an
oscillator or external clock source. (See the SysClk Inputs section for details on the use of
this pin).
Analog Ground: Connect to Ground. NOTE: Pin 43 is a ground shield connection.

Complementary Feedback input: In standard operating mode, this pin is connected to
the filtered IOUTB output . This internally biased input is typically AC-coupled, and when
configured as such, can accept any differential signal.
Feedback Input: In standard operating mode, this pin is connected to the filtered IOUT
output
DAC output current setting resistor. Connect a resistor from this pin to GND . See the
“DAC Output” section.
DAC output: Output signal should be filtered and sent back on chip through FDBK_INB
input
Complimentary DAC output: Output signal should be filtered and sent back on chip
through FDBK_IN input
No Connect: These should be left floating.
Power Down: When this active high pin is asserted, the device goes into full power
down mode.
Chip Reset: When this active high pin is asserted, the chip goes into reset. Note: upon
power up, a 10 us reset pulse is automatically generated when the power supplies reach
a threshold and stabilize.
I/O Update: A logic transition from 0 to 1 on this pin transfers data from the I/O port
registers to the control registers (see the Write subsection of the General Operation of
Serial Control Port section).
Chip Select: Active low. When programming a device, this pin must be held low. In
systems where more than one AD9549 is present this enables individual programming
of each AD9549
Serial Data Output: When the device is in three wire mode, data is read on this pin
