The AD9204 operates from a single 1.8 V analog power
supply and features a separate digital output driver supply
to accommodate 1.8 V to 3.3 V logic families.
The patented sample-and-hold circuit maintains excellent
performance for input frequencies up to 200 MHz and is
designed for low cost, low power, and ease of use.
A standard serial port interface supports various product
features and functions, such as data output formatting,
internal clock divider, power-down, DCO/DATA timing
and offset adjustments, and voltage reference modes.
The AD9204 is packaged in a 64-lead RoHS compliant
LFCSP that is pin compatible with the AD9268 16-bit
ADC, the AD9251 and AD9258 14-bit ADCs, and the
AD9231 12-bit ADC, enabling a simple migration path
between 10-bit and 16-bit converters sampling from
20 MSPS to 125 MSPS.

AD9204
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9204 is a monolithic, dual-channel, 1.8 V supply, 10-bit,
20 MSPS/40 MSPS/65 MSPS/80 MSPS analog-to-digital converter
(ADC). It features a high performance sample-and-hold circuit
and on-chip voltage reference.
A differential clock input controls all internal conversion cycles.
An optional duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) compensates for wide
variations in the clock duty cycle while maintaining excellent
overall ADC performance.
The product uses multistage differential pipeline architecture
with output error correction logic to provide 10-bit accuracy at
80 MSPS data rates and to guarantee no missing codes over the
full operating temperature range.
The digital output data is presented in offset binary, gray code, or
twos complement format. A data output clock (DCO) is provided
for each ADC channel to ensure proper latch timing with receiving
logic. Both 1.8 V and 3.3 V CMOS levels are supported and output
data can be multiplexed onto a single output bus.
The ADC contains several features designed to maximize
flexibility and minimize system cost, such as programmable
clock and data alignment and programmable digital test pattern
generation. The available digital test patterns include built-in
deterministic and pseudorandom patterns, along with custom
user-defined test patterns entered via the serial port interface (SPI).
The AD9204 is available in a 64-lead RoHS compliant LFCSP
and is specified over the industrial temperature range (−40°C
to +85°C).

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
The exposed paddle is the only ground connection for the chip.
The exposed paddle must be soldered to the AGND plane of the

Typical θJA is specified for a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground
plane. As shown in Table 7, airflow improves heat dissipation,
which reduces θJA. In addition, metal in direct contact with the
package leads from metal traces, through holes, ground, and
power planes reduces the θJA.

THEORY OF OPERATION
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The analog input to the AD9204 is a differential switchedcapacitor circuit designed for processing differential input
signals. This circuit can support a wide common-mode range
while maintaining excellent performance. By using an input
common-mode voltage of midsupply, users can minimize
signal-dependent errors and achieve optimum performance.
H
In nondiversity applications, the AD9204 can be used as a baseband or direct downconversion receiver, where one ADC is
used for I input data and the other is used for Q input data.

ADC ARCHITECTURE
The AD9204 architecture consists of a multistage, pipelined ADC.
Each stage provides sufficient overlap to correct for flash errors
in the preceding stage. The quantized outputs from each stage are
combined into a final 10-bit result in the digital correction logic.
The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate with
a new input sample, while the remaining stages operate with
preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of
the clock.
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched-capacitor DAC
and an interstage residue amplifier (for example, a multiplying
digital-to-analog converter (MDAC)). The residue amplifier
magnifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output
and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. One bit of
redundancy is used in each stage to facilitate digital correction
of flash errors. The last stage simply consists of a flash ADC.
The output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and
passes the data to the CMOS output buffers. The output buffers
are powered from a separate (DRVDD) supply, allowing adjustment of the output voltage swing. During power-down, the
output buffers go into a high impedance state.
08122-006
The AD9204 dual ADC design can be used for diversity
reception of signals, where the ADCs are operating identically
on the same carrier but from two separate antennae. The ADCs
can also be operated with independent analog inputs. The user
can sample any fS/2 frequency segment from dc to 200 MHz,
using appropriate low-pass or band-pass filtering at the ADC
inputs with little loss in ADC performance. Operation to
300 MHz analog input is permitted but occurs at the
expense of increased ADC noise and distortion.
Figure 38. Switched-Capacitor Input Circuit
The clock signal alternately switches the input circuit between
sample-and-hold mode (see Figure 38). When the input circuit
is switched to sample mode, the signal source must be capable
of charging the sample capacitors and settling within one-half
of a clock cycle. A small resistor in series with each input can
help reduce the peak transient current injected from the output
stage of the driving source. In addition, low Q inductors or ferrite
beads can be placed on each leg of the input to reduce high
differential capacitance at the analog inputs and, therefore,
achieve the maximum bandwidth of the ADC. Such use of low
Q inductors or ferrite beads is required when driving the converter
front end at high IF frequencies. Either a shunt capacitor or two
single-ended capacitors can be placed on the inputs to provide a
matching passive network. This ultimately creates a low-pass
filter at the input to limit unwanted broadband noise. See the
AN-742 Application Note, the AN-827 Application Note, and the
Analog Dialogue article “Transformer-Coupled Front-End for
Wideband A/D Converters” (Volume 39, April 2005) for more
information. In general, the precise values depend on the
application.

AD9204
The analog inputs of the AD9204 are not internally dc-biased.
Therefore, in ac-coupled applications, the user must provide a
dc bias externally. Setting the device so that VCM = AVDD/2 is
recommended for optimum performance, but the device can
function over a wider range with reasonable performance, as
shown in Figure 39 and Figure 40.
The output common-mode voltage of the ADA4938-2 is easily
set with the VCM pin of the AD9204 (see Figure 41), and the
driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to
provide band limiting of the input signal.

input configuration. An example is shown in Figure 42. To bias
the analog input, the VCM voltage can be connected to the
center tap of the secondary winding of the transformer.

The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can
also cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.

At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve
the true SNR performance of the AD9204. For applications above
~10 MHz where SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun
coupling is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 44).

Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9204 in a

excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC.

A single-ended input can provide adequate performance in

A comparator within the AD9204 detects the potential at the
SENSE pin and configures the reference into two possible
modes, which are summarized in Table 10. If SENSE is grounded,
the reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal resistor
divider (see Figure 46), setting VREF to 1.0 V.

A stable and accurate 1.0 V voltage reference is built into the

1.0 V reference or an externally applied 1.0 V reference voltage.
The various reference modes are summarized in the sections that
follow. The Reference Decoupling section describes the best
practices PCB layout of the reference.
In either internal or external reference mode, the maximum
input range of the ADC can be varied by configuring SPI

External Reference Operation
Clock Input Options
The use of an external reference may be necessary to enhance
the gain accuracy of the ADC or improve thermal drift characteristics. Figure 48 shows the typical drift characteristics of the
internal reference in 1.0 V mode.
The AD9204 has a very flexible clock input structure. The clock
input can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal.
Regardless of the type of signal being used, clock source jitter
is of the most concern, as described in the Jitter Considerations
section.
4
Figure 50 and Figure 51 show two preferred methods for clocking
the AD9204 (at clock rates up to 625 MHz). A low jitter clock
source is converted from a single-ended signal to a differential
signal using either an RF transformer or an RF balun.

VREF ERROR (mV)

The RF balun configuration is recommended for clock frequencies
between 125 MHz and 625 MHz, and the RF transformer is recommended for clock frequencies from 10 MHz to 200 MHz. The
back-to-back Schottky diodes across the transformer/balun
secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9204 to approximately 0.8 V p-p differential.

This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of the clock
from feeding through to other portions of the AD9204 while
preserving the fast rise and fall times of the signal that are critical
to a low jitter performance.
Figure 48. Typical VREF Drift
When the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD, the internal reference is
disabled, allowing the use of an external reference. An internal
reference buffer loads the external reference with an equivalent
7.5 kΩ load (see Figure 37). The internal buffer generates the
positive and negative full-scale references for the ADC core.
Therefore, the external reference must be limited to a maximum
of 1.0 V.

The AD9204 clock divider can be synchronized using the
external SYNC input. Bit 1 and Bit 2 of Register 0x100 allow
the clock divider to be resynchronized on every SYNC signal
or only on the first SYNC signal after the register is written. A
valid SYNC causes the clock divider to reset to its initial state.
This synchronization feature allows multiple parts to have their
clock dividers aligned to guarantee simultaneous input
sampling.
Clock Duty Cycle
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate
a variety of internal timing signals and, as a result, may be
sensitive to clock duty cycle. Commonly, a ±5% tolerance is
required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic
performance characteristics.
The AD9204 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) that retimes
the nonsampling (falling) edge, providing an internal clock
signal with a nominal 50% duty cycle. This allows the user to
provide a wide range of clock input duty cycles without affecting
the performance of the AD9204. Noise and distortion performance are nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles with the DCS
on, as shown in Figure 55.
Jitter in the rising edge of the input is still of concern and is not
easily reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The duty
cycle control loop does not function for clock rates less than
20 MHz nominally. The loop has a time constant associated
with it that must be considered in applications in which the
clock rate can change dynamically. A wait time of 1.5 μs to 5 μs
is required after a dynamic clock frequency increase or decrease
before the DCS loop is relocked to the input signal.

The AD9204 contains an input clock divider with the ability
to divide the input clock by integer values between 1 and 8.
Optimum performance can be obtained by enabling the
internal duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) when using divide ratios
other than 1, 2, or 4.

Jitter Considerations
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality
of the clock input. The degradation in SNR from the low frequency SNR (SNRLF) at a given input frequency (fINPUT) due to
jitter (tJRMS) can be calculated by
As shown in Figure 57, the analog core power dissipated by
the AD9204 is proportional to its sample rate. The digital
power dissipation of the CMOS outputs is determined primarily
by the strength of the digital drivers and the load
on each output bit.
SNRHF = −10 log[(2π × fINPUT × tJRMS)2 + 10 ( − SNRLF /10) ]
In the previous equation, the rms aperture jitter represents
the clock input jitter specification. Input frequency (IF)
undersampling applications are particularly sensitive to jitter,
as illustrated in Figure 56.

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases in
which aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9204.
To avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise, keep
power supplies for clock drivers separate from the ADC output
driver supplies. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators make
the best clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type
of source (by gating, dividing, or another method), it should be
retimed by the original clock at the last step.

This maximum current occurs when every output bit switches

The AD9204 is placed in power-down mode either by the SPI
port or by asserting the PDWN pin high. In this state, the ADC
typically dissipates 2.2 mW. During power-down, the output
drivers are placed in a high impedance state. Asserting the
PDWN pin low returns the AD9204 to its normal operating
mode. Note that PDWN is referenced to the digital output
driver supply (DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply
voltage.
As detailed in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High
Speed ADCs via SPI, the data format can be selected for offset
binary, twos complement, or gray code when using the SPI control.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,
and clock. Internal capacitors are discharged when entering powerdown mode and then must be recharged when returning to normal
operation. As a result, wake-up time is related to the time spent
in power-down mode, and shorter power-down cycles result in
proportionally shorter wake-up times.
Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC
in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode allows
the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when
faster wake-up times are required. See the Memory Map section
for more details.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The AD9204 output drivers can be configured to interface with
1.8 V to 3.3 V CMOS logic families. Output data can also be
multiplexed onto a single output bus to reduce the total number of
traces required.
The CMOS output drivers are sized to provide sufficient output
current to drive a wide variety of logic families. However, large
drive currents tend to cause current glitches on the supplies that
may affect converter performance.
Applications requiring the ADC to drive large capacitive loads
or large fanouts may require external buffers or latches.
The output data format can be selected to be either offset binary
or twos complement by setting the SCLK/DFS pin when operating
in the external pin mode (see Table 12).

The AD9204 has a flexible three-state ability for the digital
output pins. The three-state mode is enabled using the OEB
pin or through the SPI interface. If the OEB pin is low, the
output data drivers and DCOs are enabled. If the OEB pin is
high, the output data drivers and DCOs are placed in a high
impedance state. This OEB function is not intended for rapid
access to the data bus. Note that OEB is referenced to the digital
output driver supply (DRVDD) and should not exceed that
supply voltage.
When using the SPI interface, the data outputs and DCO of
each channel can be independently three-stated by using the
output disable (OEB) bit (Bit 4) in Register 0x14.
TIMING
The AD9204 provides latched data with a pipeline delay of
nine clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation
delay (tPD) after the rising edge of the clock signal.
Minimize the length of the output data lines and loads placed
on them to reduce transients within the AD9204. These
transients can degrade converter dynamic performance.
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9204 is 3 MSPS. At
clock rates below 3 MSPS, dynamic performance can degrade.
Data Clock Output (DCO)
The AD9204 provides two data clock output (DCO) signals
intended for capturing the data in an external register. The CMOS
data outputs are valid on the rising edge of DCO, unless the DCO
clock polarity has been changed via the SPI. See Figure 2 and
Figure 3 for a graphical timing description.

AD9204
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) AND OUTPUT TEST
The AD9204 includes a built-in test feature designed to enable
verification of the integrity of each channel, as well as facilitate
board level debugging. A built-in self-test (BIST) feature that
verifies the integrity of the digital datapath of the AD9204 is
included. Various output test options are also provided to place
predictable values on the outputs of the AD9204.
generator, Bit 2 (BIST INIT) of Register 0x0E. At the completion
of the BIST, Bit 0 of Register 0x24 is automatically cleared. The PN
sequence can be continued from its last value by writing a 0 in
Bit 2 of Register 0x0E. However, if the PN sequence is not reset,
the signature calculation will not equal the predetermined value
at the end of the test. At that point, the user must rely on
verifying the output data.
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST)
OUTPUT TEST MODES
The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected
AD9204 signal path. Perform the BIST test after a reset to ensure
that the part is in a known state. During BIST, data from an internal
pseudorandom noise (PN) source is driven through the digital
datapath of both channels, starting at the ADC block output.
At the datapath output, CRC logic calculates a signature from
the data. The BIST sequence runs for 512 cycles and then stops.
Once completed, the BIST compares the signature results with a
predetermined value. If the signatures match, the BIST sets Bit 0
of Register 0x24, signifying that the test passed. If the BIST test
failed, Bit 0 of Register 0x24 is cleared. The outputs are connected
during this test so that the PN sequence can be observed as it
runs. Writing 0x05 to Register 0x0E runs the BIST. This enables the
Bit 0 (BIST enable) of Register 0x0E and resets the PN sequence
The output test options are described in Table 17 at Address
0x0D. When an output test mode is enabled, the analog section
of the ADC is disconnected from the digital back-end blocks,
and the test pattern is run through the output formatting block.
Some of the test patterns are subject to output formatting, and
some are not. The PN generators from the PN sequence tests
can be reset by setting Bit 4 or Bit 5 of Register 0x0D. These
tests can be performed with or without an analog signal (if
present, the analog signal is ignored), but they do require an
encode clock. For more information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

AD9204
CHANNEL/CHIP SYNCHRONIZATION
The AD9204 has a SYNC input that offers the user flexible
synchronization options for synchronizing sample clocks
across multiple ADCs. The input clock divider can be enabled
to synchronize on a single occurrence of the SYNC signal or on
every occurrence. The SYNC input is internally synchronized
to the sample clock; however, to ensure that there is no timing
uncertainty between multiple parts, the SYNC input signal should
be externally synchronized to the input clock signal, meeting the
setup and hold times shown in Table 5. Drive the SYNC input
using a single-ended CMOS-type signal.
Rev. 0 | Page 28 of 36
AD9204
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9204 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to configure
the converter for specific functions or operations through a
structured register space provided inside the ADC. The SPI
gives the user added flexibility and customization, depending
on the application. Addresses are accessed via the serial port
and can be written to or read from via the port. Memory is
organized into bytes that can be further divided into fields,
which are documented in the Memory Map section. For
detailed operational information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
The falling edge of CSB, in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK, determines the start of the framing. An example of the
serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 58 and
Table 5.
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase, and its length is determined
by the W0 and W1 bits, as shown in Figure 58.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be
held low indefinitely, which permanently enables the device;
this is called streaming. The CSB can stall high between bytes to
allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high, SPI
functions are placed in high impedance mode. This mode turns
on any SPI pin secondary functions.
Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK, the SDIO,
and the CSB (see Table 14). The SCLK (a serial clock) is used
to synchronize the read and write data presented from and to
the ADC. The SDIO (serial data input/output) is a dual-purpose
pin that allows data to be sent and read from the internal ADC
memory map registers. The CSB (chip select bar) is an activelow control that enables or disables the read and write cycles.
All data is composed of 8-bit words. The first bit of the first byte
in a multibyte serial data transfer frame indicates whether a read
command or a write command is issued. This allows the serial
data input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input
to an output at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines
whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing
the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to read
the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/
output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an output
at the appropriate point in the serial frame.

HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Table 14 constitute the physical interface
between the programming device of the user and the serial port
of the AD9204. The SCLK and CSB pins function as inputs
when using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is bidirectional,
functioning as an input during write phases and as an output
during readback.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by
either FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI
configuration is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note, Microcontroller-Based Serial Port Interface
(SPI) Boot Circuit.

SPI ACCESSIBLE FEATURES
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK signal, the CSB signal, and the SDIO signal are typically
asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can
degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used
for other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between
this bus and the AD9204 to prevent these signals from transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.
SDIO/DCS and SCLK/DFS serve a dual function when the
SPI interface is not being used. When the pins are strapped to
AVDD or ground during device power-on, they are associated
with a specific function. The Digital Outputs section describes
the strappable functions supported on the AD9204.
Table 16 provides a brief description of the general features that
are accessible via the SPI. These features are described in detail
in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs
via SPI. The AD9204 part-specific features are described in
detail in Table 17.

CONFIGURATION WITHOUT THE SPI
In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers,
the SDIO/DCS pin, the SCLK/DFS pin, the OEB pin, and the
PDWN pin serve as standalone CMOS-compatible control
pins. When the device is powered up, it is assumed that the
user intends to use the pins as static control lines for the duty
cycle stabilizer, output data format, output enable, and powerdown feature control. In this mode, connect the CSB chip
select to AVDD, which disables the serial port interface.

AD9204
MEMORY MAP
READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE
DEFAULT VALUES
Each row in the memory map register table (see Table 17) has
eight bit locations. The memory map is roughly divided into
four sections: the chip configuration registers (Address 0x00
to Address 0x02); the device index and transfer registers
(Address 0x05 and Address 0xFF); the program registers
(Address 0x08 to Address 0x2E); and the digital feature control
registers (Address 0x100 and Address 0x101).
After the AD9204 is reset, critical registers are loaded with
default values. The default values for the registers are given
in the memory map register table (see Table 17).
Table 17 documents the default hexadecimal value for each
hexadecimal address shown. The column with the heading Bit 7
(MSB) is the start of the default hexadecimal value given. For
example, Address 0x18, the VREF register, has a hexadecimal
default value of 0xE0. This means that Bits[7:5] = 1, and the
remaining Bits[4:0] = 0. This setting is the default reference
selection setting. The default value uses a 2.0 V p-p reference.
For more information on this function and others, see the AN-877
Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This
document details the functions controlled by Register 0x00 to
register 0xFF. The remaining registers, Register 0x100 and
Register 0x101, are documented in the Memory Map Register
Descriptions section following Table 17.
OPEN LOCATIONS
All address and bit locations that are not included in the SPI
map are not currently supported for this device. Unused bits of
a valid address location should be written with 0s. Writing to these
locations is required only when part of an address location is
open (for example, Address 0x18). If the entire address location
is open, it is omitted from the SPI map (for example, Address 0x13)
and should not be written.
Logic Levels
An explanation of logic level terminology follows:
•
•
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.”
“Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.”
Transfer Register Map
Address 0x08 to Address 0x18 are shadowed. Writes to these
addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer command
is issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the transfer bit.
This allows these registers to be updated internally and simultaneously when the transfer bit is set. The internal update takes
place when the transfer bit is set, and then the bit autoclears.
Channel-Specific Registers
Some channel setup functions can be programmed differently
for each channel. In these cases, channel address locations are
internally duplicated for each channel. These registers and bits
are designated in the memory map register table as local. These
local registers and bits can be accessed by setting the appropriate
Channel A (Bit 0) or Channel B (Bit 1) bits in Register 0x05.
If both bits are set, the subsequent write affects the registers of
both channels. In a read cycle, set only Channel A or Channel B
to read one of the two registers. If both bits are set during an
SPI read cycle, the part returns the value for Channel A.
Registers and bits designated as global in the memory map
register table affect the entire part or the channel features for
which independent settings are not allowed between channels.
The settings in Register 0x05 do not affect the global registers
and bits.

Normally set high, this bit allows Pin 47 to function as the
output enable. If it is set low, it disables Pin 47.
Bit 2—Clock Divider Next Sync Only
If the master sync enable bit (Address 0x100, Bit 0) and the
clock divider sync enable bit (Address 0x100, Bit 1) are high,
Bit 2 allows the clock divider to sync to the first sync pulse it
receives and to ignore the rest. The clock divider sync enable
bit (Address 0x100, Bit 1) resets after it syncs.
Bit 1—Clock Divider Sync Enable
Bit 1 gates the sync pulse to the clock divider. The sync signal
is enabled when Bit 1 and Bit 0 are high and the device is
operating in continuous sync mode as long as Bit 2 of the
sync control is low.
Normally set high, this bit enables a circuit that detects encode
rates below about 5 MSPS. When a low encode rate is detected,
an internal oscillator, GCLK, is enabled, ensuring the proper
operation of several circuits. If set low, the detector is disabled.
Bit 2—Run GCLK
This bit enables the GCLK oscillator. For some applications
with encode rates below 10 MSPS, it may be preferable to set
this bit high to supersede the GCLK detector.
Bit 0—Disable SDIO Pull-Down
This bit can be set high to disable the internal 30 kΩ pull-down
on the SDIO pin, which can be used to limit the loading when
many devices are connected to the SPI bus.
Bit 0—Master Sync Enable
Bit 0 must be high to enable any of the sync functions.

AD9204
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DESIGN GUIDELINES
Before starting design and layout of the AD9204 as a system,
it is recommended that the designer become familiar with these
guidelines, which discuss the special circuit connections and
layout requirements needed for certain pins.
Power and Ground Recommendations
When connecting power to the AD9204, it is strongly
recommended that two separate supplies be used. Use one 1.8 V
supply for analog (AVDD); use a separate 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply for
the digital output supply (DRVDD). If a common 1.8 V AVDD
and DRVDD supply must be used, the AVDD and DRVDD
domains must be isolated with a ferrite bead or filter choke
and separate decoupling capacitors. Several different decoupling
capacitors can be used to cover both high and low frequencies.
Locate these capacitors close to the point of entry at the PCB
level and close to the pins of the part, with minimal trace length.
A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the
AD9204. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance
is easily achieved.
Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Sink Recommendations
The exposed paddle (Pin 0) is the only ground connection
for the AD9204 and, therefore, it must be connected to analog
ground (AGND) on the customer’s PCB. To achieve the best
electrical and thermal performance, mate an exposed (no
solder mask) continuous copper plane on the PCB to the
AD9204 exposed paddle, Pin 0.
The copper plane should have several vias to achieve the
lowest possible resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to
flow through the bottom of the PCB. Fill or plug these vias
with nonconductive epoxy.
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and
the PCB, a silkscreen should be overlaid to partition the continuous
plane on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides
several tie points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow
process. Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees
only one tie point between the ADC and the PCB. For detailed
information about packaging and PCB layout of chip scale
packages, see the AN-772 Application Note, A Design and
Manufacturing Guide for the Lead Frame Chip Scale Package
(LFCSP), at www.analog.com.
VCM
The VCM pin should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1 μF
capacitor, as shown in Figure 42.
RBIAS
The AD9204 requires that a 10 kΩ resistor be placed between
the RBIAS pin and ground. This resistor sets the master current
reference of the ADC core and should have at least a 1% tolerance.
Reference Decoupling
Externally decouple the VREF pin to ground with a low ESR,
1.0 μF capacitor in parallel with a low ESR, 0.1 μF ceramic
capacitor.
SPI Port
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the
ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter
performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices,
it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the
AD9204 to keep these signals from transitioning at the converter
inputs during critical sampling periods.
