GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9363 is a high performance, highly integrated RF agile
transceiver designed for use in 3G and 4G femtocell applications.
Its programmability and wideband capability make it ideal for a
broad range of transceiver applications. The device combines an
RF front end with a flexible mixed-signal baseband section and
integrated frequency synthesizers, simplifying design-in by
providing a configurable digital interface to a processor. The
AD9363 operates in the 325 MHz to 3.8 GHz range, covering
most licensed and unlicensed bands. Channel bandwidths from
less than 200 kHz to 20 MHz are supported.
The two independent direct conversion receivers have state-ofthe-art noise figure and linearity. Each Rx subsystem includes
independent automatic gain control (AGC), dc offset correction,
quadrature correction, and digital filtering, thereby eliminating
the need for these functions in the digital baseband. The AD9363
also has flexible manual gain modes that can be externally
controlled. Two high dynamic range ADCs per channel digitize
the received I and Q signals and pass them through configurable
decimation filters and 128-tap finite impulse response (FIR)
filters to produce a 12-bit output signal at the appropriate
Rev. D
sample rate.
The transmitters use a direct conversion architecture that achieves
high modulation accuracy with ultralow noise. This transmitter
design produces a best-in-class Tx EVM of −34 dB, allowing
significant system margin for the external power amplifier (PA)
selection. The on-board Tx power monitor can be used as a
power detector, enabling highly accurate Tx power
measurements.
The fully integrated phase-locked loops (PLLs) provide low
power fractional N frequency synthesis for all receive and
transmit channels. Channel isolation, demanded by FDD
systems, is integrated into the design. All voltage controlled
oscillators (VCOs) and loop filter components are integrated.
The core of the AD9363 can be powered directly from a 1.3 V
regulator. The IC is controlled via a standard 4-wire serial port
and four real-time I/O control pins. Comprehensive power-down
modes are included to minimize power consumption during
normal use. The AD9363 is packaged in a 10 mm × 10 mm,
144-ball chip scale package ball grid array (CSP_BGA).

THEORY OF OPERATION
GENERAL
TRANSMITTER
The AD9363 is a highly integrated radio frequency (RF)
transceiver capable of being configured for a wide range of
applications. The device integrates all RF, mixed-signal, and
digital blocks necessary to provide all transceiver functions in a
single device. Programmability allows this broadband transceiver
to be adapted for use with multiple communication standards,
including FDD and TDD systems. This programmability also
allows the device to interface to various BBPs using a single 12bit parallel data port, dual 12-bit parallel data ports, or a 12-bit
low voltage differential signaling (LVDS) interface.
The transmitter section consists of two identical and independently controlled channels that provide all digital processing,
mixed-signal, and RF blocks necessary to implement a direct
conversion system while sharing a common frequency synthesizer. The digital data received from the BBP passes through a
fully programmable 128-tap FIR filter with interpolation options.
The FIR output is sent to a series of interpolation filters that
provide additional filtering and data rate interpolation prior to
reaching the DAC. Each 12-bit DAC has an adjustable sampling
rate. Both the I and Q channels are fed to the RF block for
upconversion.
The AD9363 also provides self calibration and AGC systems to
maintain a high performance level under varying temperatures
and input signal conditions. In addition, the device includes
several test modes that allow system designers to insert test tones
and create internal loopback modes to debug their designs
during prototyping and optimize their radio configuration for a
specific application.
RECEIVER
The receiver section contains all blocks necessary to receive RF
signals and convert them to digital data that is usable by a BBP.
Two independently controlled channels can receive signals from
different sources, allowing the device to be used in multiple
input, multiple output (MIMO) systems while sharing a
common frequency synthesizer.
Each channel has three inputs that can be multiplexed to the
signal chain, making the AD9363 suitable for use in diversity
systems with multiple antenna inputs. The receiver is a direct
conversion system that contains a low noise amplifier (LNA)
followed by matched in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) amplifiers,
mixers, and band shaping filters that downconvert received
signals to baseband for digitization. External LNAs can also
be interfaced to the device, allowing designers the flexibility to
customize the receiver front end for their specific application.
Gain control is achieved by following a preprogrammed gain
index map that distributes gain among the blocks for optimal
performance at each level. This gain control can be achieved by
enabling the internal AGC in either fast or slow mode or by
using manual gain control, allowing the BBP to make the gain
adjustments as needed. Additionally, each channel contains
independent RSSI measurement capability, dc offset tracking,
and all circuitry necessary for self calibration.
The receivers include 12-bit, sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) ADCs and adjustable sample rates that produce data streams from the received
signals. The digitized signals can be conditioned further by a
series of decimation filters and a fully programmable 128-tap
FIR filter with additional decimation settings. The sample rate
of each digital filter block can also be adjusted by changing the
decimation factors to produce the desired output data rate.
After being converted to baseband analog signals, the I and Q
signals are filtered to remove sampling artifacts and provide band
shaping, and then they are passed to the upconversion mixers.
At this point, the I and Q signals are recombined and modulated
on the carrier frequency for transmission to the output stage.
The output stage provides attenuation control that provides a
range of output levels while keeping the output impedance at 50 Ω.
A wide range of attenuation adjustment with fine granularity is
included to help designers optimize SNR.
Self calibration circuitry is included in the transmit channel to
provide internal adjustment capability. The transmitter also
provides a Tx monitor block that receives the transmitter output
and routes it back through an unused receiver channel to the
BBP for signal monitoring. The Tx monitor blocks are available
only in TDD mode operation while the receiver is idle.
CLOCK INPUT OPTIONS
The AD9363 uses a reference clock provided by an external
oscillator or clock distribution device (such as the AD9548)
connected to the XTALN pin. The frequency of this reference
clock can vary from 10 MHz to 80 MHz. This reference clock
supplies the synthesizer blocks that generate all data clocks,
sample clocks, and local oscillators inside the device.
SYNTHESIZERS
RF PLLs
The AD9363 contains two identical synthesizers to generate the
required LO signals for the RF signal paths—one for the receiver
and one for the transmitter. PLL synthesizers are fractional N
designs that incorporate completely integrated VCOs and loop
filters. In TDD mode, the synthesizers turn on and off as appropriate for the Rx and Tx frames. In FDD mode, the Tx PLL and the
Rx PLL can be activated at the same time. These PLLs require no
external components.

AD9363
BB PLL
ENABLE STATE MACHINE
The AD9363 also contains a baseband PLL (BB PLL) synthesizer
that generates all baseband related clock signals. These signals
include the ADC and DAC sampling clocks, the DATA_CLK signal
(see the Digital Data Interface section), and all data framing
signals. The BB PLL is programmed from 700 MHz to 1400 MHz
based on the data rate and sample rate requirements of the system.
The AD9363 transceiver includes an ENSM that allows realtime control over the current state of the device. The device can
be placed in several different states during normal operation,
including
DIGITAL DATA INTERFACE
The AD9363 data interface uses parallel data ports (P0 and P1)
to transfer data between the device and the BBP. The data ports
can be configured in either single-ended CMOS format or differential LVDS format. Both formats can be configured in multiple
arrangements to match system requirements for data ordering
and data port connections. These arrangements include single
port data bus, dual port data bus, single data rate, double data
rate, and various combinations of data ordering to transmit data
from different channels across the bus at appropriate times.
Bus transfers are controlled using simple hardware handshake
signaling. The two ports can be operated in either bidirectional
(TDD) mode or in full duplex (FDD) mode, where half the bits
are used for transmitting data and half are used for receiving
data. The interface can also be configured to use only one of the
data ports for applications that do not require high data rates
and require fewer interface pins.
DATA_CLK Signal
The AD9363 outputs the DATA_CLK signal that the BBP uses
to sample receiver data. The signal is synchronized with the
receiver data such that data transitions occur out of phase with
DATA_CLK. The DATA_CLK can be set to a rate that provides
single data rate (SDR) timing, where data is sampled on each rising
clock edge, or it can be set to provide double data rate (DDR)
timing, where data is captured on both rising and falling clock
edges. SDR or DDR timing applies to operation using either a
single port or both ports.
FB_CLK Signal
For transmit data, the interface uses the FB_CLK signal as the
timing reference. The FB_CLK signal allows source synchronous timing with rising edge capture for burst control signals
and either rising edge capture (SDR mode) or both edge capture
(DDR mode) for transmit signal bursts. The FB_CLK signal
must have the same frequency and duty cycle as DATA_CLK.
RX_FRAME and TX_FRAME Signals
The device generates an RX_FRAME output signal whenever
the receiver outputs valid data. This signal has two modes: level
mode (the RX_FRAME signal stays high as long as the data is
valid) and pulse mode (the RX_FRAME signal pulses with a 50%
duty cycle). Similarly, the BBP must provide a TX_FRAME
signal that indicates the beginning of a valid data transmission
with a rising edge. Like the RX_FRAME signal, the TX_FRAME
signal stays high throughout the burst or it pulses with a 50% duty
cycle.

The ENSM has two control modes: SPI control and pin control.
SPI Control Mode
In SPI control mode, the ENSM is controlled asynchronously by
writing to SPI registers to advance the current state to the next
state. SPI control is considered asynchronous to the DATA_CLK
signal because the SPI clock can be derived from a different
clock reference and can still function properly. The SPI control
ENSM mode is recommended when real-time control of the
synthesizers is not necessary. SPI control can be used for realtime control as long as the BBP can perform timed SPI writes
accurately.
Pin Control Mode
In pin control mode, the enable functions of the ENABLE pin
and the TXNRX pin allow real-time control of the current state.
The ENSM allows TDD or FDD operation, depending on the
configuration of the corresponding SPI register. The ENABLE
and TXNRX pin control mode is recommended if the BBP has
extra control outputs that can be controlled in real time, allowing a simple 2-wire interface to control the state of the device.
To advance the current state of the ENSM to the next state,
drive the enable function of the ENABLE pin by either a pulse
(edge detected internally) or a level.
When a pulse is used, it must have a minimum pulse width of
one cycle of the FB_CLK signal. In level mode, the ENABLE
and TXNRX pins are also edge detected by the AD9363 and
must meet the same minimum pulse width requirement of one
cycle of the FB_CLK signal.
In FDD mode, the ENABLE and TXNRX pins can be remapped
to serve as real-time Rx and Tx data transfer control signals. In
this mode, the ENABLE pin assumes the receive on (RXON)
function (controls when the Rx path is enabled and disabled), and
the TXNRX pin assumes the transmit on (TXON) function
(controls when the Tx path is enabled and disabled). The ENSM
must be controlled by SPI writes in this mode while the ENABLE
and TXNRX pins control all data flow. For more information
about RXON and TXON, see the AD9363 reference manual,
available from Integrated Wideband RF Transceiver Design
Resources.

SPI INTERFACE
AUXILIARY CONVERTERS
The AD9363 uses a serial peripheral interface (SPI) to communicate with the BBP. The SPI can be configured as a 4-wire interface
with dedicated receive and transmit ports, or it can be configured
as a 3-wire interface with a bidirectional data communication
port. This bus allows the BBP to set all device control parameters
using a simple address data serial bus protocol.
AUXADC
CONTROL PINS
Control Outputs (CTRL_OUT7 to CTRL_OUT0)
The AD9363 provides eight simultaneous real-time output
signals for use as interrupts to the BBP. These outputs can
be configured to output a number of internal settings and
measurements that the BBP uses when monitoring trans-ceiver
performance in different situations. The control output pointer
register selects the information that is output to these pins, and
the control output enable register determines which signals are
activated for monitoring by the BBP. Signals used for manual
gain mode, calibration flags, state machine states, and the ADC
output are among the outputs that can be monitored on these
pins.
Control Inputs (CTRL_IN3 to CTRL_IN0)
The AD9363 provides four edge detected control input pins. In
manual gain mode, the BBP uses these pins to change the gain
table index in real time.
The AD9363 contains two identical auxiliary DACs that can
provide power amplifier (PA) bias or other system functionality.
The auxiliary DACs are 10 bits wide, have an output voltage range
of 0.5 V to VDD_GPO − 0.3 V and a current drive of 10 mA, and
can be directly controlled by the internal ENSM.
POWERING THE AD9363
The AD9363 must be powered by the following three supplies:
the analog supply (VDDx = 1.3 V), the interface supply (VDD_
INTERFACE = 1.8 V), and the GPO supply (VDD_GPO = 3.3 V).
For applications requiring optimal noise performance, split and
source the 1.3 V analog supply from low noise, low dropout
(LDO) regulators. Figure 42 shows the recommended method.

Read commands follow a similar format with the exception that
the first 16 bits are transferred on the SPI_DI pin, and the final
eight bits are read from the AD9363, either on the SPI_DO pin
in 4-wire mode or on the SPI_DI pin in 3-wire mode.

Figure 42. Low Noise Power Solution for the AD9363
For applications where board space is at a premium, and
optimal noise performance is not an absolute requirement,
provide the 1.3 V analog rail directly from a switcher, and adopt
a more integrated power management unit (PMU) approach.
Figure 43 shows this approach.
GPO PINS (GPO_3 TO GPO_0)
ADP5040
The AD9363 provides four 3.3 V capable general-purpose logic
output pins: GPO_3, GPO_2, GPO_1, and GPO_0. These pins
control other peripheral devices such as regulators and switches
via the AD9363 SPI bus, or they function as slaves for the
internal AD9363 state machine.

Write commands follow a 24-bit format. The first six bits set the
bus direction and number of bytes to transfer. The next 10 bits set
the address where data is to be written. The final eight bits are the
data to be transferred to the specified register address (MSB to
LSB). The AD9363 also supports an LSB first format that allows
the commands to be written in LSB to MSB format. In this mode,
the register addresses are incremented for multibyte writes.
The AD9363 contains an auxiliary ADC that monitors system
functions such as temperature or power output. The converter is
12 bits wide and has an input range of 0.05 V to VDDA1P3_BB −
0.05 V. When enabled, the ADC is free running. SPI reads
provide the last value latched at the ADC output. A multiplexer in
front of the ADC allows the user to select between the AUXADC
input pin and a built-in temperature sensor.
