The integrated input buffer eliminates charge
kickback noise coming from the internal switched
capacitor sampling circuits and eases the systemlevel design of the driving amplifier, anti-aliasing filter,
and impedance matching. An input sampling clock
divider provides integer divide ratios with configurable
phase selection to simplify system clocking. An
integrated low-noise voltage reference eases board
level design without requiring external decoupling
capacitors. The output digital data is provided through
a JESD204B subclass 1 interface from a 56-pin, 8mm × 8-mm WQFN package. A SPI is available to
configure the device that is compatible with 1.2-V to
3-V logic.

When this signal is asserted, SCLK is used to clock the
input serial data on the SDI pin or output serial data on
the SDO pin. When this signal is de-asserted, the SDO
pin is high impedance and the input data is ignored.
Active low. A 10 kΩ pull-up resistor to the VA1.8 supply
is recommended to prevent undesired activation of the
SPI bus. Compatible with 1.2- to 3.0-V CMOS logic

DC coupling is required for coupling the SYNCb signal
to these pins. Each pin is internally terminated to the
DC bias with a large resistor. An internal 100-Ω
differential termination is provided therefore an external
termination is not required. Additional resistive
components in the input structure give the SYNCb
input a wide input common-mode range. The SYNCb
signal is active low and therefore asserted when the
voltage at SYNCb+ is less than at SYNCb–.

parallel. TI recommends to use VCMA and VCMB to
provide the common mode voltage for the differential
analog inputs. The input common mode bias is
provided internally for the ADC input; therefore,
external use of VCMA and VCMB is recommended, but
not strictly required. The recommended bypass

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating
Conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
When the input voltage at any pin exceeds the VA3.0 power supply (that is VIN > VA3.0 or VIN < AGND) the current at that pin should be
limited to ±5 mA. The ±50-mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power
supplies with an input current of ±5 mA to 10 pins.
Prolonged use at this temperature may increase the device failure-in-time (FIT) rate.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The ADC16DX370 device is a dual analog-to-digital converter (ADC) composed of pipelined stages followed by a
back-end JESD204B interface. Each ADC core is preceded by an input buffer and imbalance correction circuit at
the analog input and is provided with the necessary reference voltages with internal drivers that require no
external components. The analog input common-mode is also internally regulated.
Over-range signals are externally available on pins to monitor the signal path. A DC offset correction block is
disabled by default, but may also be enabled at the ADC core output to remove DC offset. Processed data is
passed into the JESD204B interface where the data is framed, encoded, serialized, and output on one or two
lanes per channel. Data is serially transmitted by configurable high-speed voltage mode drivers.
The sampling clock is derived from the CLKIN input via a low-noise receiver and clock divider. Coarse delay
adjustment blocks in the clock signal path control the phase of the sampling instant. The CLKIN, SYSREF, and
SYNCb inputs provide the device clock, sysref, and sync~ signals to the JESD204B interface, which are used to
derive the internal local frame and local multi-frame clocks and establish the serial link.
Features of the ADC16DX370 device are configurable through the 4-wire SPI.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Amplitude and Phase Imbalance Correction of Differential Analog Input
The ADC performance can be sensitive to amplitude and phase imbalance of the input differential signal and
therefore integrates a front-end balance correction circuit to optimize the second-order distortion (HD2)
performance of the ADC in the presence of an imbalanced input signal. 4-bit control of the phase mismatch and
3-bit control of the amplitude mismatch corrects the input mismatch before the input buffer. A simplified diagram
of the amplitude and phase correction circuit at the ADC input is shown in Figure 30.

Figure 30. Simplified Input Differential Balance Correction Circuit
Amplitude correction is achieved by varying the single-ended termination resistance of each input while
maintaining constant total differential resistance, thereby adjusting the amplitude at each input but leaving the
differential swing constant. Phase correction, also considered capacitive balance correction, varies the capacitive
load at the ADC input, thereby correcting a phase imbalance by creating a bandwidth difference between the
analog inputs that minimally affects amplitude. This function is useful for correcting the balance of transformers
or filters that drive the ADC analog inputs. Figure 31 shows the measured HD2 resulting from an example 250MHz imbalanced signal input into the ADC16DX370 device recorded over the available amplitude and phase
correction settings, demonstrating the optimization of HD2. Performance parameters in the Converter
Performance Characteristics are characterized with the amplitude and phase correction settings in the default
condition.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.2 DC Offset Correction
DC offset correction is provided using a digital high-pass IIR filter at the immediate output of the ADC core. The
DC offset correction is bypassed by default, but may be enabled and configured via the SPI. The 3-dB bandwidth
of the IIR digital correction filter may be set to four different low-frequency values. When DC offset correction is
enabled, any signal in the stop-band of the high-pass filter is attenuated. The settling time of the DC offset
correction is approximately equal to the inverse of the 3-dB bandwidth setting.
8.3.3 Over-Range Detection
Separate over-range detection output signals for channels A and B are dedicated to pins. The OVRA pin asserts
(high) when an over-range signal is detected at the input of channel A. The short delay from when an over-range
signal is incident at the input until the OVRA is asserted allows for almost immediate detection of over-range
signals without delay from the internal ADC pipeline latency or data serialization latency. OVRB responds
similarly when an over-range signal is detected at the input of channel B.
The input power threshold to indicate an over-range event is programmable via the SPI from full scale code
range down to a ± 128 LSB code range in steps of 128 codes relative to the 16-bit code range of the data at the
output of the ADC core.
After an over-range event occurs and the signal at the channel input reduces to a level below full-scale, an
internal counter begins counting to provide a hold function. When the counter reaches a programmable counter
threshold, the OVRA (or OVRB) signal is de-asserted. The duration of the hold counter is programmable via the
SPI to hold for +3, +7, or +15 frame clock cycles. The counter is disabled (+0 cycles) by default to allow deassertion without holding. Each channel has an independent hold counter but the hold duration value is common
to both channels.
8.3.4 Input Clock Divider
An input clock divider allows a high frequency clock signal to be distributed throughout the system and locally
divided down at the ADC device so that coupling of signals at common intermediate frequencies into other parts
of the system can be avoided. The frequency at the CLKIN input may be divided down to the sampling rate of the
ADC by factors of 1, 2, 4, or 8. Changing the clock divider setting initiates a JESD204 link re-initialization and
requires re-calibration of the ADC if the sampling rate is changed from the rate during the previous calibration.
8.3.5 SYSREF Offset Feature and Detection Gate
When the signal at the SYSREF input is not actively toggling periodically, the SYSREF signal is considered to be
in an idle state. The idle state is recommended at any time the ADC16DX370 spurious performance must be
maximized. When the SYSREF signal is in the idle state for longer than 1 µs, an undesirable offset voltage may
build up across the AC coupling capacitors between the SYSREF transmitter and the ADC16DX370 device input.
This offset voltage creates a signal threshold problem, requires a long time to dissipate, and therefore prevents
quick transition of the SYSREF signal out of the idle state. Two features are provided as a solution and are
shown in Figure 48, namely the SYSREF offset feature and SYSREF detection gate.
In the case that the SYSREF signal idle state has a 0-V differential value, or if the ADC16DX370 device must be
insensitive to noise that may appear on the SYSREF signal, then the SYSREF detection gate may be used. The
detection gate is the AND gate shown in Figure 48 that enables or disables propagation of the SYSREF signal
through to the internal device logic. If the detection gate is disabled and a false edge appears at the SYSREF
input, the signal does not disrupt the internal clock alignment. Note that the SYSREF detection gate is disabled
by default; therefore, the device does not respond to a SYSREF edge until the detection gate is enabled.
The SYSREF offset and detection gate features are both controlled through the SPI.
8.3.6 Sampling Instant Phase Adjustment
Adjustment of the ADC sampling instant relative to the CLKIN input clock may be controlled using the coarse
phase adjustment feature.
Coarse clock phase adjustment is provided to control the phase of the sampling instant in the ADC cores. The
coarse phase steps are equal to 1 / (2 × CLKDIV × FS) seconds over a 1 / FS second range where CLKDIV is the
clock division factor and FS is the sampling rate. The coarse phase adjustment setting is common to both
channels.

Feature Description (continued)
Affter the JESD204B serial link is established, the frame and LMFC clocks, as well as the internal reference
clocks used by the JESD204B serializer, are not affected by the clock phase adjustments because the data is retimed at the ADC core output. Changing the phase setting does not affect the status of the JESD204B link and
does not cause glitches in the serial data. Varying the phase does not vary the timing of frames output on the
JESD204B link, but it does vary the sampling instant relative to the internal frame clock. Therefore, the total
latency from the sampling instant to the beginning of the frame output on the serial link changes equal to the
change in the phase adjustment. This latency change is a fraction of a frame clock cycle.
The phase of the internal sampling clock is aligned to SYSREF events. This impacts the phase relationship
between the input signal and sampling instant and may affect the latency across the link.
8.3.7 Serial Differential Output Drivers
The differential drivers of the ADC16DX370 device that output the serial JESD204B data are voltage mode
drivers with amplitude control and de-emphasis features that may be configured through the SPI for a variety of
different channel applications. Eight amplitude control (VOD) and eight de-emphasis control (DEM) settings are
available. Both VOD and DEM register fields must be configured to optimize the noise performance of the serial
interface for a particular lossy channel.
The output common-mode of the driver varies with the configuration of the output swing. Therefore, AC coupling
is strongly recommended between the ADC16DX370 device and the device receiving the serial data.
8.3.7.1 De-Emphasis Equalization
De-emphasis of the differential output is provided as a form of continuous-time linear equalization that imposes a
high-pass frequency response onto the output signal to compensate for frequency-dependent attenuation as the
signal propagates through the channel to the receiver. In the time-domain, the de-emphasis appears as the bit
transition transient followed by an immediate reduction in the differential amplitude, as shown in Figure 32. The
characteristic appearance of the waveform changes with differential amplitude and the magnitude of deemphasis applied. The serial lane rate determines the available period of time during which the de-emphasis
transient settles. However, the lane rate does not affect the settling behavior of the applied de-emphasis.

Feature Description (continued)
Table 1 indicates the typical measured values for the de-emphasis range, where the de-emphasis value is
measured as the ratio (in units of [dB]) between the peak voltage after the signal transition to the settled voltage
value in one bit period. The data rate for this measurement is 1.2 Gb/s to allow settling of the de-emphasis
transient. Table 1 illustrates the actual de-emphasis value in terms of voltage attenuation and shows dependence
on the amplitude setting, but does not reflect the optimal amplitude setting (VOD) and de-emphasis setting
(DEM) for a particular lossy channel. Table 2 shows the amplitude of the differential signal swing during its
settled state after the transition transient. The measurement is performed at 1.2 Gb/s and the units are in
differential peak-to-peak mV.

8.3.8 ADC Core Calibration
The ADC core of this device requires calibration to be performed after power-up to achieve full performance.
After power-up, the ADC16DX370 device detects that the supplies and clock are valid, waits for a power-up
delay, and then performs a calibration of the ADC core automatically. The power-up delay is 8.4 × 106 sampling
clock cycles or 22.7 ms at a 370-MSPS sampling rate. The calibration requires approximately 2.0 × 106 sampling
clock cycles.
If the system requires that the ADC16DX370 input clock divider value (CLKDIV) is set to 2, 4, or 8, then ADC
calibration must be performed manually after CLKDIV has been set to the desired value. Manually calibrating the
ADC core is performed by changing to power down mode, returning to normal operation, and monitoring the
CAL_DONE bit in the JESD_STATUS register until calibration is complete. As an alternative to monitoring
CAL_DONE, the system may wait 2.5 × 106 sampling clock cycles until calibration completes.
Re-calibration is not required across the supported operating temperature range to maintain functional
performance, but it is recommended for large changes in ambient temperature to maintain optimal dynamic
performance. Changing the sampling rate always requires re-calibration of the ADC core. For more information
about device modes, see Power-Down and Sleep Modes.

8.3.11 Transport Layer Configuration
The transport layer features supported by the ADC16DX370 device are a subset of possible features described
in the JESD204B standard. The configuration options are intentionally simplified to provide the lowest power and
most easy-to-use solution.
8.3.11.1 Lane Configuration
Each channel outputs its digital data on up to two serial lanes that support JESD204B. The number of
transmission lanes per channel (L) is configurable as 1 or 2. The device does not allow transmitting both
channels on the same lane. When using one serial lane per channel, the serial-data lane transmits at 20 times
the sampling rate. A 370 MSPS sampling rate corresponds to a 7.4 Gb/s per lane rate. When using two serial
lanes per channel, the serial data rate is 10 times the sampling rate. A 370 MSPS sampling rate corresponds to
a 3.7 Gb/s per lane rate.
8.3.11.2 Frame Format
The format of the data arranged in a frame depends on the L setting. The octets per frame (F), samples per
frame (S), and high-density mode (HD) parameters are not independently configurable. The N, N’, CS, CF, M,
and HD parameters are fixed and not configurable. Figure 33 shows the data format for L = 1 and L = 2. M = 1 in
this device, indicating one converter per device and each channel is considered a different device. Therefore, the
L value corresponds to the number of lanes used by a channel, not the number of lanes output from the chip.

Scrambling of the output serial data is supported and conforms to the JESD204B standard. Scrambling is
disabled by default, but may be enabled via the SPI. When scrambling is enabled, the ADC16DX370 device
supports the early synchronization option by the receiver during the ILA sequence, although the ILA sequence
data is never scrambled.
8.3.12 Test Pattern Sequences
The SPI may enable the following test pattern sequences. Short- and long-transport layer, RPAT, and JSPAT
sequences are not supported.
Table 5. Supported Test Pattern Sequences
Test Pattern
Description
Common Purpose
D21.5
Data is transmitted across a normal link but ADC sampled
data is replaced with D21.5 symbols, resulting in an
alternating 1 and 0 pattern (101010...) on each serial lane.
After enabling this pattern, the JESD204B link must be
reinitialized.
Jitter or system debug
K28.5
Continuous K28.5 symbols are output on each serial lane.
Link initialization is not possible nor required.
System debug
Repeated ILA
ILA repeats indefinitely on each serial lane. After enabling this
System debug
pattern, the JESD204B link must be reinitialized.
Ramp
Data is transmitted across a normal link but ADC sampled
data is replaced with a ramp pattern. The ramp ascends
System debug and transport layer verification
through a 16-bit range and the step is programmable. After
enabling this pattern, the JESD204B link must be reinitialized.
PRBS
Standard pseudo-random bit sequences are output on each
serial lane. PRBS 7/15/23 Complies with ITU-T O.150
specification and is compatible with J-BERT equipment. Link
initialization is not possible nor required.

8.3.13 JESD204B Link Initialization
A JESD204B link is established via link initialization, which involves the following steps: frame alignment, code
group synchronization, and initial lane synchronization. These steps are shown in Figure 34. Link initialization
must occur between the transmitting device (ADC16DX370) and receiving device before sampled data may be
transmitted over the link. The link initialization steps described here are specifically for the ADC16DX370 device,
supporting JESD204B subclass 1.

SNVSA18C – APRIL 2014 – REVISED AUGUST 2014
The Frame Alignment step requires alignment of the frame and local multi-frame clocks within the
ADC16DX370 device to an external reference. This is accomplished by providing the device clock and SYSREF
clock to the CLKIN and SYSREF inputs, respectively. The ADC16DX370 device aligns its frame clock and LMFC
to any SYSREF rising edge event, offset by a SYSREF-to-LMFC propagation delay.
The SYSREF signal must be source synchronous to the device clock; therefore, the SYSREF rising edge must
meet setup and hold requirements relative to the signal at the CLKIN input. If these requirements cannot be met,
then the alignment of the internal frame and multi-frame clocks cannot be specified. As a result, a link may still
be established, but the latency through the link cannot be deterministic. Frame alignment may occur at any time;
although, a re-alignment of the internal frame clock and LMFC will break the link. Note that frame alignment is
not required for the ADC16DX370 device to establish a link because the device automatically generates the
clocks on power-up with unknown phase alignment.
Code Group Synchronization is initiated when the receiver sends a synchronization request by asserting the
SYNCb input of the ADC16DX370 device to a logic low state (SYNCb+ < SYNCb–). After the SYNCb assertion is
detected, the ADC16DX370 device outputs K28.5 symbols on all serial lanes that are used by the receiver to
synchronize and time align its clock and data recovery (CDR) block to the known symbols. The SYNCb signal
must be asserted for at least 4 frame clock cycles otherwise the event is ignored by the ADC16DX370 device.
Code group synchronization is completed when the receiver de-asserts the SYNCb signal to a logic high state.
After the ADC16DX370 detects a de-assertion of its SYNCb input, the Initial Lane Synchronization step begins
on the following LMFC boundary. The ADC16DX370 device outputs 4 multi-frames of information that compose
the ILA sequence. This sequence contains information about the data transmitted on the link. The initial lane
synchronization step and link initialization conclude when the ILA is finished and immediately transitions into
Data Transmission. During data transmission, valid sampled data is transmitted across the link until the link is
broken.

The flowchart in Figure 35 describes how the ADC16DX370 device initializes the JESD204B link and reacts to
changes in the link. After the ADC core calibration is finished, the ADC16DX370 device begins with PLL
calibration and link initialization using a default frame clock and LMFC alignment by sending K28.5 characters.
PLL calibration requires approximately 153×103 sampling clock cycles. If SYNCb is not asserted, then the device
immediately advances to the ILA sequence at the next LMFC boundary. Whereas, if SYNCb is asserted, then the
device continues to output K28.5 characters until SYNCb is de-asserted.
When a SYSREF rising edge event is detected, then the ADC16DX370 device compares the SYSREF event to
the current alignment of the LMFC. If the SYSREF event is aligned to the current LMFC alignment, then no
action is taken and the device continues to output data. If misalignment is detected, then the SYSREF event is
compared to the frame clock. If misalignment of the frame clock is also detected, then the clocks are re-aligned
and the link is reinitialized. If the frame clock is not misaligned, then the frame clock alignment is not updated. In
the cases that a SYSREF event causes a link re-initialization, the ADC16DX370 device begins sending K28.5
characters without a SYNCb assertion and immediately transitions to the ILA sequence on the next LMFC
boundary unless the SYNCb signal is asserted. Anytime the frame clock and LMFC are re-aligned, the serializer
PLL must calibrate before code group synchronization begins. SYSREF events must not occur during
ADC16DX370 device power-up, ADC calibration, or PLL calibration. The JESD_STATUS register is available to
check the status of the ADC16DX370 device and the JESD204B link.
If a SYNCb assertion is detected for at least 4 frame clock cycles, the ADC16DX370 device immediately breaks
the link and sends K28.5 characters until the SYNCb signal is de-asserted.
When exiting sleep mode, the frame clock and LMFC are started with a default (unknown) phase alignment, PLL
calibration is performed, and the device immediately transitions into sending K28.5 characters.
8.3.14 SPI
The SPI allows access to the internal configuration registers of the ADC through read and write commands to a
specific address. The interface protocol has a 1-bit command, 15-bit address word and 8-bit data word as shown
in Figure 36. A read or write command is 24 bits in total, starting with the read or write command bit where 0
indicates a write command and 1 indicates a read command. The read or write command bit is clocked into the
device on the first rising edge of SCLK after CSb is asserted to 0. During a write command, the 15-bit address
and 8-bit data values follow the read or write bit MSB-first and are latched on the rising edge of SCLK. During a
read command, the SDO output is enabled shortly after the 16th rising edge of SCLK and outputs the read value
MSB first before the SDO output is returned to a high impedance state. The read or write command is completed
on the SCLK rising edge on which the data word’s LSB is latched. CSb may be de-asserted to 1 after the LSB is
latched into the device.
The SPI allows command streaming where multiple commands are made without de-asserting CSb in-between
commands. The commands in the stream must be of similar types, either read or write. Each subsequent
command applies to the register address adjacent to the register accessed in the previous command. The
address order can be configured as either ascending or descending. Command streaming is accomplished by
immediately following a completed command with another set of 8 rising edges of SCLK without de-asserting
CSb. During a write command, an 8-bit data word is input on the SDI input for each subsequent set of SCLK
edges. During a read command, data is output from SDO for each subsequent set of SCLK edges. Each
subsequent command is considered finished after the 8th rising edge of SCLK. De-asserting CSb aborts an
incomplete command.
The SDO output is high impedance at all times other than during the final portion of a read command. During the
time that the SDO output is active, the logic level is determined by a configuration register. The SPI output logic
level must be properly configured after power up and before making a read command to prevent damaging the
receiving device or any other device connected to the SPI bus. Until the SPI_CFG register is properly configured,
voltages on the SDO output may be as high as the VA3.0 supply during a read command. The SDI, SCLK, and
CSB pins are all 1.2-V to 3.0-V compatible.

8.4.1 Power-Down and Sleep Modes
Power-down and sleep modes are provided to allow the user to reduce the power consumption of the device
without disabling power supplies. Both modes reduce power consumption by the same amount but they differ in
the amount of time required to return to normal operation. Upon changing from Power Down back to Normal
operation, an ADC calibration routine is performed. Waking from sleep mode does not perform ADC calibration
(see ADC Core Calibration for more details). Neither power-down mode nor sleep mode resets configuration
registers.

9 Application and Implementation
9.1 Application Information
9.1.1 Analog Input Considerations
9.1.1.1 Differential Analog Inputs and Full Scale Range
The ADC16DX370 device has two channels, each with a pair of analog signal input pins: VINA+, VINA− for
channel A and VINB+, VINB− for channel B. VIN, the input differential signal for a channel, is defined as VIN =
(VIN+) – (VIN−). Table 28 shows the expected input signal range when the differential signal swings about the
input common mode, VCM. The full-scale differential peak-to-peak input range is equal to twice the internal
reference voltage, VREF. Nominally, the full scale range is 1.7 Vpp-diff, therefore the maximum peak-to-peak
single-ended voltage is 0.85 Vpp at each of the VIN+ and VIN− pins.
The single-ended signals must be opposite in polarity relative to the VCM voltage to provide a purely differential
signal, otherwise the common-mode component may be rejected by the ADC input. Table 28 indicates the input
to output relationship of the ADC16DX370 device where VREF = 0.85 V. Differential signals with amplitude or
phase imbalances result in lower system performance compared to perfectly balanced signals. Imbalances in
signal path circuits lead to differential-to-common-mode signal conversion and differential signal amplitude loss
as shown in Figure 37. This deviation or imbalance directly causes a reduction in the signal amplitude and may
also lead to distortion, particularly even order harmonic distortion, as the signal propagates through the signal
path. The differential imbalance correction feature of the ADC16DX370 device helps to correct amplitude or
phase errors in the signal.

9.1.1.2 Analog Input Network Model
Matching the impedance of the driving circuit to the input impedance of the ADC can be important for low
distortion performance and a flat gain response through the network across frequency. In very broadband
applications or lowpass applications, the ADC driving network must have very low impedance with a small
termination resistor at the ADC input to maximize the bandwidth and minimize the bandwidth limitation posed by
the capacitive load of the ADC input. In bandpass applications, a designer may either design the anti-aliasing
filter to match to the complex impedance of the ADC input at the desired intermediate frequency, or consider the
resistive part of the ADC input to be part of the resistive termination of the filter and the capacitive part of the
ADC input to be part of the filter itself. The capacitive load of the ADC input can be easily absorbed into most LC
bandpass filter designs with a final shunt LC tank stage.
The analog input circuit of the ADC16DX370 device is a buffered input with an internal differential termination.
Compared to an ADC with a switched-capacitor input sampling network that has an input impedance that varies
with time, the ADC16DX370 device provides a constant input impedance that simplifies the interface design
joining the ADC and ADC driver. A simplified passive model of the ADC input network is shown in Figure 38 that
includes the termination resistance, input capacitance, parasitic bond-wire inductance, and routing parastics.

A more accurate load model is described by the measured differential SDD11 (100-Ω) parameter model. A plot of
the differential impedance derived from the model is shown on the Smith chart of Figure 39. The model includes
the internal 200-Ω resistive termination, the capacitive loading of the input buffer, and stray parasitic impedances
like bond wire inductance and signal routing coupling. The S11_diff model may be used to back-calculate the
impedance of the ADC input at a frequency of interest.

9.1.1.3 Input Bandwidth
The input bandwidth of the ADC16DX370 device is defined here as the frequency at which the fundamental
amplitude of the sampled data deviates by 3 dB, compared to the amplitude at low frequencies, for a lowimpedance input sinusoidal signal with constant voltage amplitude at the VIN+ and VIN– input pins. The voltage
frequency response is shown in Figure 40.
The peaking in the frequency response is caused by the resonance between the package bond wires and input
capacitance as well as a parasitic 0.5-nH series trace inductance leading to the device pins. This peaking is
typically made insignificant by the stop-band of an anti-aliasing filter that precedes the ADC input. For broadband
applications, 10-Ω resistors may be put in series with the VIN+ and VIN– input pins. This extra resistance flattens
out the frequency response at the cost of adding some attenuation in the signal path. The additional series
resistance also accordingly modifies the measured SDD11 looking into the analog input.

9.1.1.4 Driving the Analog Input
The ADC16DX370 device analog input may be driven by a number of methods depending on the end
application. The most important design aspects to consider when designing the ADC voltage driver network are
signal coupling, impedance matching, differential signal balance, anti-alias filtering, and signal level.
An analog signal is AC or DC coupled to the ADC depending on whether signal frequencies near DC must be
sampled. DC coupling requires tight control of the output common-mode of the ADC driver to match the input
common-mode of the ADC input. In the case of DC coupling, the biases at pins VCMA and VCMB may be used
as references to establish the driver output common-mode, but the load cannot source or sink more current than
what is specified in the electrical parameters. AC coupling does not require strict common-mode control of the
driver and is typically achieved using AC coupling capacitors or a flux-coupled transformer. AC coupling
capacitors should be chosen to have 0.1-Ω impedance or less over the frequency band of interest. LC filter
designs may be customized to achieve either AC or DC coupling.
The internal input network of the ADC16DX370 device has the common-mode voltage bias provided through
internal shunt termination resistors, as shown in Figure 38. TI also recommends providing the common-mode
reference externally from the VCMA and VCMB pins, through external termination resistors. VCMA is used
exclusively for channel A and is independent from VCMB.
Impedance matching in high speed signal paths using an ADC is dictated by the characteristic impedance of
interconnects and by the design of anti-aliasing filters. Matching the source to the load termination is critical to
ensure maximum power transfer to the load and to maintain gain flatness across the desired frequency band. In
applications with signal transmission lengths greater than 10% of the smallest signal wavelength (0.1 λ),
matching is also desirable to avoid signal reflections and other transmission line effects. Applications that require
high order anti-aliasing filters designs, including LC bandpass filters, require an expected source and load
termination to guarantee the passband bandwidth and ripple of the filter design. The recommended range of the
ADC driver source termination and ADC load termination is from 50- to 200-Ω differential. The ADC16DX370
device has an internal differential load termination, but additional termination resistance may be added at the
ADC input pins to adjust the total termination. The load termination at the ADC input presents a system-level
design tradeoff. Better 2nd order distortion performance (HD2, IMD2) is achieved by the ADC using a lower load
termination resistance, but the ADC driver must have a higher drive strength and linearity to drive the lower
impedance. Choosing a 100-Ω total load termination is a reasonable balance between these opposing
requirements.
Differential signal balance is important to achieve high distortion performance, particularly even order distortion
(HD2, HD4). Circuits such as transformers and filters in the signal path between the signal source and ADC can
disrupt the amplitude and phase balance of the differential signal before reaching the ADC input due to
component tolerances or parasitic mismatches between the two parallel paths of the differential signal. The
amplitude mismatch in the differential path should be less than ± 0.4 dB and the phase mismatch should be less
than ± 2° to achieve a high level of HD2 performance. In the case that this imbalance is exceeded, the input
balance correction may be used to re-balance the signal and improve the performance. Driving the
ADC16DX370 device with a single-ended signal is not supported due to the tight restriction on the ADC input
common-mode to maintain good distortion performance.
Converting a single-ended signal to a differential signal may be performed by an ADC driver or transformer. The
advantages of the ADC driver over a transformer include configurable gain, isolation from previous stages of
analog signal processing, and superior differential signal balancing. The advantages of using a transformer
include no additional power consumption and little additional noise or distortion.
Figure 41 is an example of driving the ADC input with a cascaded transformer configuration. The cascaded
transformer configuration provides a high degree of differential signal balancing, the series 0.1-µF capacitors
provide AC coupling, and the additional 33-Ω termination resistors provide a total differential load termination of
50 Ω. When additional termination resistors are added to change the ADC load termination, shunt terminations to
the VCM reference are recommended to reduce common-mode fluctuations or sources of common-mode
interference. A differential termination may be used if these sources of common-mode interference are minimal.
In either case, the additional termination components must be placed as close to the ADC pins as possible. The
MABA007159 transmission-line transformer from this example is widely available and results in good differential
balance, although improved balance may be achieved using the rarer MABACT0040 transformer. Shunt
capacitors at the ADC input, used to suppress the charge kickback of an ADC with switched-capacitor inputs, are
not required for this purpose because the buffered input of the ADC16DX370 device does not kickback a
significant amount of charge.

The insertion loss between an ADC driver and the ADC input is important because the driver must overcome the
insertion loss of the connecting network to drive the ADC to full-scale and achieve the best SNR. Minimizing the
loss through the network reduces the output swing and distortion requirements of the driver and usually
translates to a system-level power savings in the driver. This can be accomplished by selecting transformers or
filter designs with low insertion loss. Some filter designs may employ reduced source terminations or impedance
conversions to minimize loss. Many designs require the use of high-Q inductors and capacitors to achieve an
expected passband flatness and profile.

Figure 41. Transformer Input Network
Sampling theory states that if a signal with frequency ƒIN is sampled at a rate less than 2 × ƒIN, then it
experiences aliasing, causing the signal to fall at a new frequency between 0 and FS / 2 and become
indistinguishable from other signals at that new frequency.
To prevent out-of-band interference from aliasing onto a desired signal at a particular frequency, an anti-aliasing
filter is required at the ADC input to attenuate the interference to a level below the level of the desired signal.
This is accomplished by a lowpass filter in systems with desired signals from DC to FS / 2 or with a bandpass
filter in systems with desired signals greater than FS / 2 (under-sampled signals). If an appropriate anti-aliasing
filter is not included in the system design, the system may suffer from reduced dynamic range due to additional
noise and distortion that aliases into the frequency bandwidth of interest.
An anti-aliasing filter is required in front of the ADC input in most applications to attenuate noise and distortion at
frequencies that alias into any important frequency band of interest during the sampling process. An anti-aliasing
filter is typically a LC lowpass or bandpass filter with low insertion loss. The bandwidth of the filter is typically
designed to be less than FS / 2 to allow room for the filter transition band. Figure 42 is an example architecture of
a 9 pole order LC bandpass anti-aliasing filter with added transmission zeros that can achieve a tight filtering
profile for second Nyquist zone under-sampling applications.
Maximizing the distortion performance of this device requires the avoidance of driving circuits that are mostly
capacitive at frequencies near and above the sampling rate. At these frequencies, the performance is maximized
by ensuring the driving circuit is high impedance or mostly resistive (real impedance). Driving circuits with highly
capacitive sources impedances (negative source reactance) at these frequencies can cause resonance with the
interface, leading to sub-optimal distortion performance. In the case of bandpass LC anti-aliasing filters, the
impedance looking into the filter output is recommended to be high impedance or real at frequencies near and
above the sampling rate such as the filter shown in Figure 42. Capacitors placed directly at the ADC input used
as bandwidth limiters or as part of a filter's final stage LC tank are not recommended.
Applications that use lumped reactive components (capacitors, inductors) in the interface to the ADC are
recommended to have a small series resistor at the ADC input, also shown in Figure 42. Place these resistors
close to the device pins, between the external termination resistors and the device pins. A value of 5 Ω is
sufficient for most applications, though TI recommends 10 Ω for applications where the lumped differential
capacitance at the ADC input is unavoidable and greater than 2 pF.

DC coupling to the analog input is also possible but the input common-mode must be tightly controlled for
guaranteed performance. The driver device must have an output common-mode that matches the input commonmode of the ADC16DX370 device and the driver must track the VCM output from the ADC16DX370 device, as
shown in the example DC coupled interface of Figure 43 because the input common-mode varies with
temperature. The common-mode path from the VCM output, through the driver device, back to the ADC16DX370
device input, and through a common-mode detector inside the ADC16DX370 device forms a closed tracking loop
that will correct common-mode offset contributed by the driver device but the loop must be stable to ensure
correct performance. The loop requires the large, 10-µF capacitor at the VCM output to establish the dominant
pole for stability and the driver device must reliably track the VCM output voltage bias. The current drive strength
and voltage swing of the VCM output bias limits the correctable amount of common-mode offset.

9.1.1.5 Clipping and Over-Range
The ADC16DX370 device has two regions of signal clipping: code clipping (over-range) and ESD clipping. When
the input signal amplitude exceeds the full-scale reference range, code clipping occurs during which the digital
output codes saturate. If the signal amplitude increases beyond the absolute maximum rating of the analog
inputs, ESD clipping occurs due to the activation of ESD diodes.
The thresholds of the indicators are programmable via the SPI. An over-range hold feature is also available to
extend the time duration of the indicator longer than the over-range event itself to accommodate the case that a
device monitoring the OVRA and OVRB outputs cannot process at the rate of the ADC sampling clock.
TI does not recommend ESD clipping and activation of the ESD diodes at the analog input, which may damage
or shorten the life of the device. This clipping may be avoided by selecting an ADC driver with an appropriate
saturating output voltage, by placing insertion loss between the driver and ADC, by limiting the maximum
amplitude earlier in the signal path at the system level, or by using a dedicated differential signal limiting device
such as back-to-back diodes. Any signal swing limiting device must be chosen carefully to prevent added
distortion to the signal.

9.1.2 CLKIN, SYSREF, and SYNCb Input Considerations
Clocking the ADC16DX370 device shares many common concepts and system design requirements with
previously released ADC products, but the JESD204B supported architecture adds another layer of complexity to
clocking at the system level. A SYSREF signal accompanies the device clock to provide phase alignment
information for the output data serializer (as well as for the sampling instant when the clock divider is enabled) to
ensure that the latency through the JESD204B link is always known and does not vary, a concept called
deterministic latency. To ensure deterministic latency, the SYSREF signal must meet setup and hold
requirements relative to CLKIN and the design of the clocking interfaces require close attention. As with other
ADCs, the quality of the clock signal also influences the noise and spurious performance of the device.
9.1.2.1 Driving the CLKIN+ and CLKIN– Input
The CLKIN input circuit is composed of a differential receiver and an internal 100-Ω termination to a weakly
driven common-mode of 0.55 V. TI recommends AC coupling to the CLKIN input with 0.1-uF external capacitors
to maintain the optimal common-mode biasing. Figure 44 shows the CLKIN receiver circuit and an example AC
coupled interface.

DC coupling is allowed as long as the input common-mode range requirements are satisfied. The input commonmode of the CLKIN input is not compatible with many common signaling standards like LVDS and LVPECL.
Therefore, the CLKIN signal driver common-mode must be customized at the transmitter or adjusted along the
interface. Figure 45 shows an example DC coupled interface that uses a resistor divider network to reduce the
common-mode while maintaining a 100-Ω total termination at the load. Design equations are provided with

The CLKIN input supports any type of standard signaling that meets the input signal swing and common-mode

also supported. TI does not recommend driving the CLKIN input single-ended. The differential lane trace on the
PCB should be designed to be a controlled 100 Ω and protected from noise sources or other signals.

9.1.2.2 Clock Noise and Edge Rate
Noise added to the sampling clock path of the ADC degrades the SNR performance of the system. This noise
may include broadband noise added by the ADC clock receiver inside the ADC device but may also include
broadband and in-close phase noise added by the clock generator and any other devices leading to the CLKIN
input. The theoretical SNR performance limit of the ADC16DX370 device as a result of clock noise for a given
input frequency is shown in Figure 46 for a full scale input signal and different values of total jitter.

Figure 46. SNR Limit Due to Jitter of Sampling Clock With a Full-Scale Input Signal
The differential clock receiver of the ADC16DX370 device has a very-low noise floor and wide bandwidth. The
wide band clock noise of the receiver, also referred to as the additive jitter, modulates the sampling instant and
adds the noise to the signal. At the sampling instant, the added broadband noise appears in the first Nyquist
zone at the ADC output to degrade the noise performance. Minimizing the additive jitter requires a sampling
clock with a steep edge rate at the zero crossing. Reduced edge rate increases the additive jitter. For clock
signals with a differential swing of 100 mV or greater, the additive clock Figure 47 shows the SNR performance
(integrated within a 100-MHz bandwidth) of the ADC16DX370 device for a range of clock transition slopes.

Noise added to the sampling clock by devices leading up to the ADC clock input also directly affects the noise
performance of the system. In-close phase noise is typically dominated by the performance of the clock
reference and phase-locked loop (PLL) that generates the clock and limits the sensitivity of the sampling system
at desired frequencies offset 100 Hz to 10 MHz away from a large blocking signal. Little can be done to improve
the in-close phase noise performance without the use of an additional PLL. Broadband noise added in the clock
path limits the sensitivity of the whole spectrum and may be improved by using lower noise devices or by
inserting a band-pass filter (BPF) with a narrow pass band and low insertion loss to the clock input signal path.
Adding a BPF limits the transition rate of the clock, thereby creating a trade-off between the additive jitter added
by the ADC clock receiver and the broadband noise added by the devices that drive the clock input.
Additional noise may couple to the clock path through power supplies. Take care to provide a very-low noise
power supply and isolated supply return path to minimize noise added to the supply. Spurious noise added to the
clock path results in symmetrical, modulated spurs around large input signals. These spurs have a constant
magnitude in units of dB relative to the input signal amplitude or carrier, [dBc].

9.1.2.3 Driving the SYSREF Input
The SYSREF input interface circuit is composed of the differential receiver, internal common-mode bias,
SYSREF offset feature, and SYSREF detection feature.
A high impedance (10-kΩ) reference biases the input common-mode through internal 1-kΩ termination resistors.
The bias voltage is similar to the CLKIN input common-mode bias, but the internal differential termination is
different. The SYSREF input requires an external 100-Ω termination. A network of resistors and switches are
included at the input interface to provide a programmable DC offset, referred to as the SYSREF offset feature.
This feature is configurable through the SPI and may be used to force a voltage offset at the SYSREF input in
the absence of an active SYSREF signal. Following the receiver, an AND gate provides a method for detecting
or ignoring incoming SYSREF events.
The timing relationship between the CLKIN and SYSREF signal is very stringent in a JESD204B system.
Therefore, the signal path network of the CLKIN and SYSREF signals must be as similar as possible to ensure
that the signal relationship is maintained from the launch of the signal, through their respective channels to the
CLKIN and SYSREF input receivers.
TI recommends AC coupling for the SYSREF interface as shown in Figure 48. This network closely resembles
the AC coupled interface of the CLKIN input shown in Figure 44 with the exception of the 100-Ω termination
resistor on the source side of the AC coupling capacitors. This resistor is intentionally placed on the source side
of the AC coupling capacitors, so that the termination does not interfere with the DC biasing capabilities of the
SYSREF offset feature. In the case of AC coupling, the coupling capacitors of both the CLKIN and SYSREF
interfaces, as well as the SYSREF termination resistor, must be placed as close as possible to the pins of the
ADC16DX370 device.

DC coupling of the SYSREF interface is possible, but not recommended. DC coupling allows all possible
SYSREF signaling types to be used without the use of the SYSREF offset feature, but it has strict common-mode
range requirements. The example DC coupled configuration of Figure 49 uses the same technique for the CLKIN
example DC coupled interface and also includes the 100-Ω external termination. A drawback of the example DC
coupled interface is that the resistor divider draws a constant DC current that must be sourced by the SYSREF
transmitter.

9.1.2.4 SYSREF Signaling
The SYSREF input may be driven by a number of different types of signals. The supported signal types, shown
in Figure 50 (in single-ended form), include periodic, gapped periodic, and one-shot signals. The rising edge of
the SYSREF signal is used as a reference to align the internal frame clock and local multi-frame clock (LMFC).
To ensure proper alignment of these system clocks, the SYSREF signal must be generated along with the CLKIN
signal such that the SYSREF rising edge meets the setup and hold requirements relative to the CLKIN at the
ADC16DX370 device inputs.
For each rising clock edge that is detected at the SYSREF input, the ADC16DX370 device compares the current
alignment of the internal frame and LMFC with the SYSREF edge and determines if the internal clocks must be
re-aligned. In the case that no alignment is needed, the clocks maintain their current alignment and the
JESD204B data link is not broken. In the case that re-alignment is needed, the JESD204B data link is broken
and the clocks are re-aligned.

Figure 50. SYSREF Signal Types (Single-Ended Representations)
In the case of a periodic SYSREF signal, the frame and LMFC alignment is established at the first rising edge of
SYSREF, and every subsequent rising edge (that properly meets setup and hold requirements) is ignored
because the alignment has already been established. A periodic SYSREF must have a period equal to n × K / FS
where ‘FS’ is the sampling rate, ‘K’ is the JESD204B configuration parameter indicating the number of frames per
multi-frame, and ‘n’ is an integer of one or greater. The duty cycle of the SYSREF signal should be greater than
2 / K but less than (K – 2) / K.
Gapped-period signals contain bursts of pulses. The frame and LMFC alignments are established on the first
rising edge of the pulse burst. The rising edges within the pulse burst must be spaced apart by n × K / FS
seconds, similar to the periodic SYSREF signal. Any rising edge that does not abide by this rule or does not
meet the setup and hold requirements forces re-alignment of the clocks. The duty cycle requirements are the
same as the periodic signal type.
A one-shot signal contains a single rising edge that establishes the frame and LMFC alignment. The single pulse
duration must be 2 × TFRAME or greater.

SNVSA18C – APRIL 2014 – REVISED AUGUST 2014
TI recommends gapped-periodic or one-shot signals for most applications because the SYSREF signal is not
active during normal sampling operation. Periodic signals that toggle constantly introduce spurs into the signal
spectrum that degrade the sensitivity of the system.
9.1.2.5 SYSREF Timing
The SYSREF timing requirements depend on whether deterministic latency of the JESD204B link is required.
If deterministic latency is required, then the SYSREF signal must meet setup and hold requirements relative to
the CLKIN signal. In the case that the internal CLKIN divider is used and a very high-speed signal is provided to
the CLKIN input, the SYSREF signal must meet setup and hold requirements relative to the very high-speed
signal at the CLKIN input.
If deterministic latency is not required, then the SYSREF signal may be supplied as an asynchronous signal
(possibly achieving < ± 2 frame clock cycles latency variation) or not provided at all (resulting in latency variation
as large as the multi-frame period).
9.1.2.6 Effectively Using the SYSREF Offset and Detection Gate Features
Selecting the proper settings for the SYSREF offset feature depends on the condition of SYSREF in the idle
state and the type of SYSREF signal being transmitted. Table 29 describes the possible SYSREF idle cases and
the corresponding SYSREF offset to apply.
TI recommends the use of the SYSREF detection gate for most applications. The gate is enabled when SYSREF
is being transmitted and the gate is disabled before the SYSREF transmitter is put in the idle state. Although the
SYSREF offset feature does not support situations where the SYSREF transmitter is in a 0 V or Hi-Z commonmode condition during the idle state, the SYSREF gate can be used to ignore the SYSREF input during those
conditions. In those cases, time is required to dissipate the voltage build-up on the AC coupling capacitors when
the SYSREF returns to an active state.
Enabling the SYSREF gate immediately sends a logic signal to a logic block responsible for aligning the internal
frame clock and LMFC. If the signal at the SYSREF input is logic high when the gate is enabled, then a "false"
rising edge event causes a re-alignment of the internal clocks, despite the fact that the event is not an actual
SYSREF rising edge. The SYSREF rising edge following the gate enable then causes a subsequent re-alignment
with the desired alignment.
TI highly recommends the SYSREF clocking schemes described in Table 30.

9.1.2.7 Driving the SYNCb Input
The SYNCb input is part of the JESD204B interface and is used to send synchronization requests from the serial
data receiver to the transmitter, the ADC16DX370 device. The SYNCb signal, quantified as the (SYNCb+ –
SYNCb–), is a differential active low signal. In the case of the ADC16DX370 device, a JESD204B subclass 1
device, a SYNCb assertion (logic low) indicates a request for synchronization by the receiver.
The SYNCb input is a differential receiver as shown in Figure 51. Resistors provide an internal 100-Ω differential
termination as well as a voltage divider circuit that gives the SYNCb receiver a wide input common-mode range.
The SYNCb signal must be DC coupled from the driver to the SYNCb inputs; therefore, the wide common-mode
range allows the use of many different logic standards including LVDS and LVPECL. No additional external
components are needed for the SYNCb signal path as shown in the interface circuit of Figure 51, but providing
an electrical probing site is recommended for system debug.

The SYNCb input is an asynchronous input and does not have sub-clock-cycle setup and hold requirements

and hold requirements relative to the frame and LMFC system clocks unless the delay through the JESD204B
link is longer than a multi-frame. A design that has link delay greater than a multi-frame does not strictly follow
the standard rules for achieving deterministic latency, but may be required in many applications and may still
achieve deterministic latency. In this case, it is important to de-assert SYNCb within the window of the desired
multi-frame period.
9.1.3 Output Serial Interface Considerations
9.1.3.1 Output Serial-Lane Interface
The output high speed serial lanes must be AC coupled to the receiving device with 0.01-µF capacitors as shown
in Figure 52. DC coupling to the receiving device is not supported. The lane channel on the PCB must be a 100Ω differential transmission line with dominant coupling between the differential traces instead of to adjacent
layers. The lane must terminate at a 100-Ω termination inside the receiving device. Avoid changing the direction
of the channel traces abruptly at angles larger than 45°.

The recommended spacing between serial lanes is 3× the differential line spacing or greater. High speed serial
lanes should be routed on top of or below adjacent, quiet ground planes to provide shielding. TI recommends
that other high speed signal traces do not cross the serial lanes on adjacent PCB layers. If absolutely necessary,
crossing should occur at a 90° angle with the trajectory of the serial lane to minimize coupling.

SNVSA18C – APRIL 2014 – REVISED AUGUST 2014
The integrity of the data transfer from the transmitter to receiver is limited by the accuracy of the lane impedance
and the attenuation as the signal travels down the lane. Inaccurate or varying impedance and frequency
dependent attenuation results in increased ISI (part of deterministic jitter) and reduced signal-to-noise ratio,
which limits the ability of the receiver to accurately recover the data.
Two features are provided in the ADC16DX370 device serial transmitters to compensate attenuation and ISI
caused by the serial lane: voltage swing control (VOD) and de-emphasis (DEM).
9.1.3.2 Voltage Swing and De-Emphasis Optimization
Voltage swing control (VOD) compensates for attenuation across all frequencies through the channel at the
expense of power consumption. Increasing the voltage swing increases the power consumption. De-emphasis
(DEM) compensates for the frequency dependent attenuation of the channel but results in attenuation at lower
frequencies. The voltage swing control and de-emphasis feature may be used together to optimally compensate
for attenuation effects of the channel.
The frequency response of the PCB channel is typically lowpass with more attenuation occurring at higher
frequencies. The de-emphasis implemented in the ADC16DX370 device is a form of linear, continuous-time
equalization that shapes the signal at the transmitter into a high-pass response to counteract the low-pass
response of the channel. The de-emphasis setting should be selected such that the equalizer’s frequency
response is the inverse of the channel’s response. Therefore, transferring data at the highest speeds over long
channel lengths requires knowledge of the channel characteristics.
Optimization of the de-emphasis and voltage swing settings is only necessary if the ISI and losses caused by the
channel are too great for reception at the desired bit rate. Many applications will perform with an adequate BER
using the default settings.
9.1.3.3 Minimizing EMI
High data-transfer rates have the potential to emit radiation. EMI may be minimized using the following
techniques:
• Use differential stripline channels on inner layer sandwiched between ground layers instead of routing
microstrip pairs on the top layer.
• Avoid routing lanes near the edges of boards.
• Enable data scrambling to spread the frequency content of the transmitted data.
• If the serial lane must travel through an interconnect, choose a connector with good differential pair channels
and shielding.
• Ensure lanes are designed with an accurate, 100-Ω characteristic impedance and provide accurate 100-Ω
terminations inside the receiving device.
9.1.4 JESD204B System Considerations
9.1.4.1 Frame and LMFC Clock Alignment Procedure
Frame and LMFC clocks are generated inside the ADC16DX370 device and are used to properly align the phase
of the serial data leaving the device. The phases of the frame and multi-frame clocks are determined by the
frame alignment step for JESD204B link initialization as shown in Figure 34. These clocks are not accessible
outside the device. The frequencies of the frame and LMFC must be equal to the frame and LMFC of the device
receiving the serial data.
When the ADC16DX370 device is powered-up, the internal frame and local multi-frame clocks initially assume a
default phase alignment. To ensure determinist latency through the JESD204B link, the frame and LMFC clocks
of the ADC16DX370 device must be aligned in the system. Perform the following steps to align the
ADC16DX370 device clocks:
1. Enable the SYSREF signal driver. See SYSREF Signaling for more information.
2. Configure the SYSREF offset feature appropriately based on the SYSREF signal and channel. See
Effectively Using the SYSREF Offset and Detection Gate Features for more information.
3. Enable detection of the SYSREF signal at the ADC16DX370 device by enabling the SYSREF detection gate.
4. Apply the desired SYSREF signal at the ADC16DX370 device SYSREF input.
5. Disable detection of the SYSREF signal by disabling the SYSREF gate.

9.1.4.2 Link Interruption
The internal frame and multi-frame clocks must be stable to maintain the JESD204B link. The ADC16DX370 is
designed to maintain the JESD204B link in most conditions but some features interrupt the internal clocks and
break the link.
The following actions cause a break in the JESD204B link:
• The ADC16DX370 device is configured into power-down mode or sleep mode
• The ADC16DX370 device CLKIN clock divider setting is changed
• The serial data receiver performs a synchronization request
• The ADC16DX370 device detects a SYSREF assertion that is not aligned with the internal frame or multiframe clocks
• The CLKIN input is interrupted
• Power to the device is interrupted
The following actions do not cause a change in clock alignment nor break the JESD204B link:
• The sampling clock phase adjustment settings of the ADC16DX370 device are changed.
• The ambient temperature or operating voltages are varied across the ranges specified in the normal operating
conditions.
• The ADC16DX370 device detects a SYSREF assertion that is aligned with the internal frame and multi-frame
clocks.
9.1.4.3 Synchronization Requests and SYNCb Alignment in Multi-Device Systems
When a JESD204B link must be established, the transmitting and receiving devices must perform the process
described in JESD204B Link Initialization to establish the link. Part of the process is the synchronization request,
performed by asserting the SYNCb signal. The alignment of the SYNCb assertion with respect to other clocks in
the system is not important unless the total link delay is greater than a multi-frame period. If the total link delay is
greater than a multi-frame period, then the SYNCb signal at one device must be de-asserted in the same multiframe period as the other devices in the system.
9.1.4.4 Clock Configuration Examples
The features provided in the ADC16DX370 device allow for a number of clock and JESD204B link configurations.
These examples in Table 31 show some common implementations and may be used as a starting point for a
more customized implementation.

9.1.4.5 Configuring the JESD204B Receiver
The ASIC or FPGA device that receives the JESD204B data from the ADC16DX370 device must be configured
properly to interpret the serial stream. Table 4 describes the JESD204B parameter information transmitted during
the ILA sequence and may be used to dynamically configure the receiving device. Due to the various
arrangements of output data across different operational modes, some parameters (N, N’, CS, CF) do not always
reflect the data properties in all modes. Therefore, the ILA information does not completely describe the data
output from the ADC16DX370 device in all modes.
9.1.5 SPI
Figure 53 demonstrates a typical circuit to interface the ADC16DX370 device to a SPI master using a shared SPI
bus. The 4-wire interface (SCLK, SDI, SDO, CSb) is compatible with 1.2-, 1.8-, 2.5-, or 3.0-V logic. The input
pins (SCLK, SDI, CSb) use thick-oxide devices to tolerate 3.0-V logic although the input threshold levels are
relative to 1.2-V logic. A low-capacitance protection diode may also be added with the anode connected to the
SDO output and the cathode connected to the desired voltage supply to prevent an accidental pre-configured
read command from causing damage.

9.2 Typical Application
The ADC16DX370 device is architected to fit seamlessly into most high intermediate frequency (IF) receiver
applications where low noise and low distortion are required. An example block diagram is shown in Figure 54
where the ADC16DX370 device is used in the receive path as well as the transmitter observation path to
accommodate digital pre-distortion. The 370-MHz sampling rate provides enough spectrum bandwidth and
performance to support the newest cellular standards like LTE as well as the mature multi-carrier standards like
GSM and UMTS with 100 MHz of bandwidth. The device supports diversity and MIMO architectures and multiband receivers. The back-end JESD204B interface reduces the space required to transfer data and provides a
standard interface that can migrate to future generations of products, making it optimal for highly-channelized
applications.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
10.1 Power Supply Design
The ADC16DX370 device is a very-high dynamic range device and therefore requires very-low noise power
supplies. LDO-type regulators, capacitive decoupling, and series isolation devices like ferrite beads are all
recommended.
LDO-type low noise regulators should be used to generate the 1.2-, 1.8-, and 3.0-V supplies used by the device.
To improve power efficiency, a switching-type regulator may precede the LDO to efficiently drop a supply to an
intermediate voltage that satisfies the drop-out requirements of the LDO. TI recommends to follow a switchingtype regulator with an LDO to provide the best filtering of the switching noise. Additional ferrite beads and LC
filters may be used to further suppress noise. Supplying power to multiple devices in a system from one regulator
may result in noise coupling between the multiple devices; therefore, series isolation devices and additional
capacitive decoupling is recommended to improve the isolation.
The power supplies must be applied to the ADC16DX370 device in this specific order:
1. VA3.0
2. VA1.8
3. VA1.2
4. VD1.2
First, the VA3.0 (+3.0 V) must be applied to provide the bias for the ESD diodes. The VA1.8 (+1.8-V) supply
should be applied next, followed by the VA1.2 (+1.2-V) supply, and then followed by the VD1.2 (+1.2-V) supply.
As a guideline, each supply should stabilize to within 20% of the final value within 10 ms and before enabling the
next supply in the sequence. If the stabilization time is longer than 10 ms, then the system should perform the
calibration procedure after the supplies have stabilized. Turning power supplies off should occur in the reverse
order. An alternate power-up sequence is also supported which allows enabling the 1.2-V supplies in any order
or at the same time. The alternate sequence is:
1. VA3.0
2. VA1.2 / VD1.2
3. VA1.8
10.2 Decoupling
Decoupling capacitors must be used at each supply pin to prevent supply or ground noise from degrading the
dynamic performance of the ADC and to provide the ADC with a well of charge to minimize voltage ripple caused
by current transients. The recommended supply decoupling scheme is to have a ceramic X7R 0201 0.01-μF and
a X7R 0402 0.1-μF capacitor at each supply pin. The 0201 capacitor must be placed on the same layer as the
device as close to the pin as possible to minimize the AC decoupling path length from the supply pin, through the
capacitor, to the nearest adjacent ground pin. The 0402 capacitor should also be close to the pins. TI does not
recommend placing the capacitor on the opposite board side. Each voltage supply should also have a single 10μF decoupling capacitor near the device but the proximity to the supply pins is less critical.
The BP2.5 pin is an external bypass pin used for stabilizing an internal 2.5-V regulator and must have a ceramic
or tantalum 10-μF capacitor and a ceramic 0402 0.1-μF capacitor. The 0.1-μF capacitor should be placed as
close to the BP2.5 pin as possible.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The design of the PCB is critical to achieve the full performance of the ADC16DX370 device. Defining the PCB
stackup should be the first step in the board design. Experience has shown that at least 6 layers are required to
adequately route all required signals to and from the device. Each signal routing layer must have an adjacent
solid ground plane to control signal return paths to have minimal loop areas and to achieve controlled
impedances for microstrip and stripline routing. Power planes must also have adjacent solid ground planes to
control supply return paths. Minimizing the spacing between supply and ground planes improves performance by
increasing the distributed decoupling. The recommended stack-up for a 6-layer board design is shown in
Figure 57.
Although the ADC16DX370 device consists of both analog and digital circuitry, TI highly recommends solid
ground planes that encompass the device and its input and output signal paths. TI does not recommend split
ground planes that divide the analog and digital portions of the device. Split ground planes may improve
performance if a nearby, noisy, digital device is corrupting the ground reference of the analog signal path. When
split ground planes are employed, one must carefully control the supply return paths and keep the paths on top
of their respective ground reference planes.
Quality analog input signal and clock signal path layout is required for full dynamic performance. Symmetry of the
differential signal paths and discrete components in the path is mandatory and symmetrical shunt-oriented
components should have a common grounding via. The high frequency requirements of the input and clock
signal paths necessitate using differential routing with controlled impedances and minimizing signal path stubs
(including vias) when possible.
Coupling onto or between the clock and input signal paths must be avoided using any isolation techniques
available including distance isolation, orientation planning to prevent field coupling of components like inductors
and transformers, and providing well coupled reference planes. Via stitching around the clock signal path and the
input analog signal path provides a quiet ground reference for the critical signal paths and reduces noise
coupling onto these paths. Sensitive signal traces must not cross other signal traces or power routing on
adjacent PCB layers, rather a ground plane must separate the traces. If necessary, the traces should cross at
90° angles to minimize crosstalk.
The substrate dielectric materials of the PCB are largely influenced by the speed and length of the high speed
serial lanes. The affordable and common FR4 variety may not offer the consistency or loss to support the highest
speed transmission (> 5 Gb/s) and long lengths (> 4 inch). Although the VOD and DEM features are available to
improve the signal integrity of the serial lanes, some of the highest performing applications may still require
special dielectric materials such as Rogers 4350.
Coupling of ambient signals into the signal path is reduced by providing quiet, close reference planes and by
maintaining signal path symmetry to ensure the coupled noise is common-mode. Faraday caging may be used in
very noisy environments and high dynamic range applications to isolate the signal path.

11.3 Thermal Considerations
The exposed thermal pad of the ADC16DX370 device draws heat from the silicon down into the PCB to prevent
overheating and must attach to the landing pad with a quality solder connection to maximize thermal conductivity.
Overly hot operating temperatures may be alleviated further by increasing the PCB size, filling surface layers with
ground planes to increase heat radiation, or using a thermally conductive connection between the package top
and a heat sink.

12 Device and Documentation Support
12.1 Device Support
12.1.1 Specification Definitions
3-dB BANDWIDTH is a measure of the frequency at which the reconstructed output fundamental deviates 3 dB
from its low frequency value relative to the differential voltage signal applied at the device input
pins.
APERTURE DELAY is the time delay between the rising edge of the clock until the input signal is acquired or
held for conversion.
APERTURE JITTER (APERTURE UNCERTAINTY) is the variation in aperture delay from sample to sample.
CLOCK DUTY CYCLE is the ratio of the time during one cycle that a repetitive digital waveform is high to the
total time of one period. The specification here refers to the ADC clock input signal.
COMMON MODE VOLTAGE (VCM) is the common DC voltage applied to both terminals of the ADC differential
input.
COMMON MODE REJECTION RATIO (CMRR) is the ratio of the magnitude of the single-tone spur in the
sampled spectrum (referred to the ADC analog input as a peak voltage quantity) to the peak
voltage swing of a sinusoid simultaneously incident on the positive and negative terminals of a
differential analog input as a common-mode signal from which the spur generated. CMRR is
typically expressed in decibels [dB].
CROSSTALK is the coupling of energy from one channel into the other channel.
DIFFERENTIAL NON-LINEARITY (DNL) is the measure of the maximum deviation from the ideal step size of 1
least significant bit (LSB)
GAIN VARIATION is the expected standard deviation in the gain of the converter from an applied voltage to
output codes between parts or between channels.
INTEGRAL NON-LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of the deviation of each individual code from a best-fit straight
line. The deviation of any given code from this straight line is measured from the center of that code
value.
INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) is the creation of additional spectral components as a result of two
sinusoidal frequencies being applied to the ADC input at the same time. It quantifies the power of
the largest intermodulation product adjacent to the input tones, expressed in dBFS.
LEAST SIGNIFICANT BIT (LSB) is the bit that has the smallest value or weight of all bits. This value is VFS / 2n,
where VFSis the full scale input voltage and n is the ADC resolution in bits.
MISSING CODES are those output codes that do not appear at the ADC outputs. The ADC16DX370 device is
specified not to have missing codes.
MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT (MSB) is the bit that has the largest value or weight. Its value is one half of full scale.
OFFSET ERROR is the difference between the two input voltages (VIN+ – VIN–) required to cause a transition
from code 32767LSB and 32768LSB with offset binary data format.
POWER SUPPLY SENSITIVITY is a measure of the sensitivity of the power supplies to noise. In this
specification, a supply is modulated with a 100-mV, 500-kHz sinusoid and the resulting spurs in the
spectrum are measured. The sensitivity is expressed relative to the power of a possible full-scale
sinusoid [dBFS].
SAMPLE-TO-PARALLEL OUT (S2PO) LATENCY is the number of frame clock cycles between initiation of
conversion and the time when the parallel sample data is available at the output of the receiver’s
elastic buffer. This latency is specified to be deterministic if the JESD204B subclass 1 requirements
are satisfied.
SAMPLE-TO-SERIAL OUT (S2SO) LATENCY is the number of frame clock cycles between initiation of
conversion and the time when the first bit of serial data for that sample is present at the output
driver. This latency is not specified to be deterministic.

SECOND HARMONIC DISTORTION (2ND HARM or HD2) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the power of the
input signal’s 2nd harmonic to the power of the input signal. HD2 is usually expressed relative to the
power of a possible full-scale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative to the power of the actual input carrier
signal [dBc].
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (SINAD) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the power of the input signal to
the total power of all of the other spectral components, including harmonics but excluding DC.
SINAD is usually expressed relative to the power of a possible full-scale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative
to the power of the actual input carrier signal [dBc].
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO (SNR) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the power of the input signal to the total
power of all other spectral components, not including harmonics and DC. SNR is usually expressed
relative to the power of a possible full-scale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative to the power of the actual
input carrier signal [dBc].
SPUR
is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the power of the peak spurious signal to the power of the input
signal, where a spurious signal is any signal present in the output spectrum that is not present at
the input excluding the second and third harmonic distortion. SPUR is usually expressed relative to
the power of a possible full-scale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative to the power of the actual input carrier
signal [dBc].
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the input signal power to the
peak spurious signal power, where a spurious signal is any signal present in the output spectrum
that is not present at the input. SINAD is usually expressed relative to the power of a possible fullscale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative to the power of the actual input carrier signal [dBc].
THIRD HARMONIC DISTORTION (3RD HARM or HD3) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the power of the input
signal’s 3rd harmonic to the power of the input signal. HD3 is usually expressed relative to the
power of a possible full-scale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative to the power of the actual input carrier
signal [dBc].
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the total power of the first eight
harmonics (HD2 through HD9) to the input signal power. THD is usually expressed relative to the
power of a possible full-scale sinusoid [dBFS] or relative to the power of the actual input carrier
signal [dBc].
12.1.2 JESD204B Definitions
DEVICE CLOCK is a master clock signal from which a device must generate its local frame and local multiframe clocks. For the ADC16DX370 device, this refers to the signal at the CLKIN input.
FRAME
is a set of consecutive octets in which the position of each octet can be identified by references to a
frame alignment signal.
FRAME CLOCK is a signal used for sequencing frames or monitoring their alignment. For the ADC16DX370
device, this clock is internally generated and is not externally accessible.
LINK (DATA LINK) is an assembly, consisting of parts of two devices and the interconnecting data circuit, that is
controlled by a long protocol enabling data to be transferred from a data source to a data sink. The
link includes portions of the ADC16DX370 device (transmitter), FPGA or ASIC (receiver), and the
hardware that connects them.
LOCAL MULTI-FRAME CLOCK (LMFC) is a signal used for sequencing multi-frames or monitoring their
alignment. This clock is derived inside the ADC16DX370 device from the device clock and used in
the implementation of the JESD204B link within the device.
MULTI-FRAME is a set of consecutive frames in which the position of each frame can be identified by reference
to a multi-frame alignment signal.
OCTET
is a group of eight adjacent binary digits, serving as the input to an 8B/10B encoder or the output of
an 8B/10B decoder.
SCRAMBLING is the randomization of the output data that is used to eliminate long strings of consecutive
identical transmitted symbols and avoid the presence of spectral lines in the signal spectrum
