Output Rate
TERMINOLOGY
Absolute Group Delay
This is the rate at which data words are made available
(270.833 kHz).
Absolute group delay is the rate of change of phase versus frequency, dø/df. It is expressed in microseconds.
Offset Error
This is the amount of offset, wrt VREF in the auxiliary DAC and
is expressed in mVs.
Differential Nonlinearity
This is the difference between the measured and the ideal
1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes in the DAC or
ADC.
Output Signal Span
This is the output signal range for the auxiliary DAC section.
Dynamic Range
Sampling Rate
Dynamic Range is the ratio of the maximum output signal to the
smallest output signal the converter can produce (1 LSB), expressed logarithmically, in decibels (dB = 201og10 (ratio)). For
an N-bit converter, the ratio is theoretically very nearly equal to
2N (in dB, 20Nlog10(2) = 6.02N). However, this theoretical
value is degraded by converter noise and inaccuracies in the
LSB weight.
This is the rate at which the modulators on the receive channels
sample the analog input.
Settling Time
This is the digital filter settling time in the AD7729 receive
section. On initial power-up or after returning from the powerdown mode, it is necessary to wait this amount of time to get
useful data.
Gain Error
This is a measure of the output error between an ideal DAC and
the actual device output with all 1s loaded after offset error has
been adjusted out. In the AD7729, gain error is specified for the
auxiliary section.
Signal Input Span
Gain Matching Between Channels
This is the measured ratio of signal to (noise + distortion) at the
output of the receive channel. The signal is the rms amplitude of
the fundamental. Noise is the rms sum of all nonfundamental
signals up to half the sampling frequency (fS/2), excluding dc.
The ratio is dependent upon the number of quantization levels
in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization noise. The theoretical signal to (noise + distortion) ratio
for a sine wave is given by:
The input signal range for the I and Q channels is biased about
VREF.
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) Ratio
This is the gain matching between the IRx and QRx channel
and is expressed in dBs.
Group Delay Between Channels
This is the difference between the group delay of the I and Q
channels and is a measure of the phase matching characteristics
of the two.
Integral Nonlinearity
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = (6.02N + 1.76) dB
This is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing
through the endpoints of the auxiliary DAC transfer function.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
AD7729
BASEBAND CODEC
Receive Section
The receive section consists of I and Q receive channels, each
comprising of a simple switched-capacitor filter followed by a
15-bit sigma-delta ADC. On-board digital filters, which form
part of the sigma-delta ADCs, also perform critical system-level
filtering. Their amplitude and phase response characteristics
provide excellent adjacent channel rejection. The receive section is also provided with a low power sleep mode to place the
receive section on standby between receive bursts, drawing only
minimal current.

The receive section analog front-end is sampled at 13 MHz by a
switched-capacitor filter. The filter has a zero at 6.5 MHz as
shown in Figure 8a. The receive channel also contains a digital
low-pass filter (further details are contained in the following
section) which operates at a clock frequency of 6.5 MHz. Due
to the sampling nature of the digital filter, the passband is repeated about the operating clock frequency and at multiples of
the clock frequency (Figure 8b). Because the first null of the
switched-capacitor filter coincides with the first image of the
digital filter, this image is attenuated by an additional 30 dBs
(Figure 8c), further simplifying the external antialiasing requirements (see Figures 9 and 10).

Sigma-Delta ADC
The AD7729 receive channels employ a sigma-delta conversion
technique, which provides a high-resolution 15-bit output for
both I and Q channels with system filtering being implemented
on-chip.
The output of the switched-capacitor filter is continuously
sampled at 6.5 MHz (master clock/2), by a charge-balanced
modulator, and is converted into a digital pulse train whose
duty cycle contains the digital information. Due to the high
oversampling rate, which spreads the quantization noise from
0 MHz to 3.25 MHz (FS/2), the noise energy contained in the
band of interest is reduced (Figure 13a). To reduce the quantization noise still further, a high order modulator is employed to
shape the noise spectrum, so that most of the noise energy is
shifted out of the band of interest (Figure 13b).
Digital Filter
The digital filters used in the AD7729 receive section carry out
two important functions. Firstly, they remove the out-of-band
quantization noise which is shaped by the analog modulator.
Secondly, they are also designed to perform system level filtering, providing excellent rejection of the neighboring channels.
Digital filtering has certain advantages over analog filtering.
Firstly, since digital filtering occurs after the A/D conversion
process, it can remove noise injected during the conversion
process. Analog filtering cannot do this. Secondly, the digital
filter combines low passband ripple with a steep roll-off, while
also maintaining a linear phase response. This is very difficult to
achieve with analog filters.
However, analog filtering can remove noise superimposed on
the analog signal before it reaches the ADC. Digital filtering
cannot do this and noise peaks riding on signals near full-scale
have the potential to saturate the analog modulator, even
though the average value of the signal is within limits. To alleviate this problem, the AD7729 has overrange headroom built
into the sigma-delta modulator and digital filter which allows
overrange excursions of 100 mV.

When RxDELAY1 has expired, the AD7729 offset calibration
routine begins, assuming the RxAUTOCAL bit in control register BCRA is equal to 1. If RxAUTOCAL equals zero, no calibration occurs and T2 in Figure 16 equals zero. In internal
autocalibration mode, the AD7729 internally disconnects the
differential inputs from the input pins and shorts the inputs to
measure the resulting ADC offset. In external autocalibration
mode, the inputs remain connected to the pins, allowing system
offsets along with the AD7729 internal offsets to be evaluated.
This is then averaged 16 times to reduce noise and the averaged
result is then placed in the offset register. The input to the ADC
is then switched back for normal operation and the analog circuitry and digital filter are permitted to settle. This time period
is included in TCALIBRATE, which equals 40 × 48 MCLK cycles.

The digital filter is a 288-tap FIR filter, clocked at half the master clock frequency. The 3 dB point is at 96 kHz.

Due to the low-pass nature of the receive filters, a settling time
is associated with step input functions. Output data will not be
meaningful until all the digital filter taps have been loaded
with data samples taken after the step change. Hence the AD7729
digital filters have a settling time of 44.7 µs (288 × 2t1).

Included in the digital filter is a means by which receive offsets
may be calibrated out. Each channel of the digital low-pass filter
section has an offset register. The offset register can be made to
contain a value representing the dc offset of the preceding analog circuitry. In normal operation, the value stored in the offset
register is subtracted from the filter output data before the data
appears on the serial output pin. By so doing, dc offsets in the I
and Q channels are calibrated out. Autocalibration or usercalibration can be selected. Internal autocalibration will remove
internal offsets only while user calibration allows the user to
write to the offset register in order to also remove external offsets.

After calibration is complete, a second timer is started which
times out a time equal to RxDELAY2. The range of both
RxDELAY1 and RxDELAY2 is 0 to 255 units where each unit
equals one bit time. Therefore, the maximum delay time is
255 × 1/270 kHz = 941.55 µs.
As soon as RxDELAY2 has expired, valid output words appear
at the output. The Rx data will be 15 bits wide.

The offset registers have enough resolution to hold the value of
any dc offset between ± 162.5 mV (1/8th of the input range).
Offsets larger than ± 162.5 mV will cause a spurious result due to
calibration overrange. However, the performance of the sigmadelta modulators will degrade if full-scale signals with more than
100 mV of offset are experienced. The 10-bit offset register
represents a twos complement value. The LSB of the offset
registers corresponds to Bit 3 of the Rx words while the MSB of
the offset registers corresponds to Bit 12 of the Rx words (see
Figure 15).

registers remain valid. After powering up, the first IQ sample

to settle and also for the output of the digital filter to settle.

Voltage Reference
The reference of the AD7729, REFCAP, is a bandgap reference
which provides a low noise, temperature compensated reference
to the IQ receive ADCs and the AUXDAC. The reference is
also made available on the REFOUT pin. The reference has a
value of 1.3 V nominal.
When the AD7729 is powered down, the reference can also be
powered down. Alternatively, by setting bit LP to 1, the reference remains powered up. This is useful as the power-up time
for the receive section and auxiliary converter is reduced since
the reference does not require time to power up and settle.

to adjust the frequency of the SCLKs in each SPORT, which is
useful for power dissipation minimization. Furthermore, it is
possible for the user to access all the ADC and AUXDAC control registers over one SPORT, the other SPORT being disabled
by tying its serial port enable (SE) low. This feature is useful

frequency of ASCLK and BSCLK is MCLK/8. As well as resetting the control registers using the reset pin, these registers can
be reset using the reset bits in the baseband and auxiliary registers. All the auxiliary registers can be reset by taking the bit
ARESET in control register ACRB high. The baseband registers
can be reset by taking bit BRESET in baseband control register
BCRA high. This is illustrated in Table IV. After resetting, the
bits ARESET and BRESET will reset to zero. A reset using
ARESET or BRESET requires 4 MCLK cycles. The registers
ARDADDR, BRDADDR, ASCLKRATE, and BSCLKRATE
can only be reset using the reset pin RESETB—these registers

Auxiliary Control Functions
The AD7729 also contains an auxiliary DAC that may be used
for AGC. This 10-bit DAC consists of high impedance current
sources, designed to operate at very low currents while maintaining its dc accuracy. The DAC is buffered by an output amplifier and allows a load of 10 kΩ.
The DAC has a specified output range of 2 × VREFCAP /32 to 2 ×
VREFCAP. The analog output is:
2 VREFCAP /32 + (2 VREFCAP – 2 VREFCAP /32) × DAC/1023
The functions of the control register bits are summarized in
Table IV to Table X.
where DAC is the 10-bit digital word loaded into the DAC
register.
To perform a conversion, the DAC is first powered up using the
AUXDACON bit in control register ACRA. After power-up,
10 µs are required for the AUXDAC circuitry to settle. The
AUXDAC is loaded by writing to register AUXDAC. When
the AUXDAC is in power-down mode, the AUXDAC register
will retain its contents. When the AUXDAC is reset, the
AUXDAC register will be set to all zeroes, leading to a voltage
of 2 × VREFCAP/32 on the analog output.

To read the contents of a register, the address of the appropriate
register is written to the read address register, ARDADDR or
BRDADDR. The time interval between writing to the read
address register and the frame synchronization signal becoming
active equals 4 MCLK cycles. The read address register is
6 bits wide and Bits D11 to D6 of the input frame are used to
write to this register, Bits D12 to D15 being don’t cares, as
shown in Figure 20. The frame format for reading is identical to
that for writing i.e., 10 bits of data followed by 6 address bits
corresponding to the source address of the data (with the exception of the Rx data).

Receiving RxDATA
The Rx ADC is activated by taking either the RxON bit or the
RxON pin high. In this mode, Rx data is automatically output
on the SDO pin of the SPORT at a word rate of 270 kHz for
each of I and Q, after a delay of T1 + T2 + T3 (see Figure 16).
The data format is I followed by Q. The AD7729 will output
16 bits of data, the 15-bit I or Q word, which is in twos complement format, and a flag bit. This flag bit (LSB) distinguishes
between the I and Q words, the bit being at 0 when the word
being output is an I word while this bit is at 1 when the output
is a Q word.

When RxON is taken high, the serial clock will have a frequency
of 13 MHz, irrespective of the value in the clock rate register.
When the AD7729 is ready to output Rx data, an output frame
synchronization signal is generated and the Rx data is automatically output on the SDO pin, an I and Q word being output
every 48 MCLK cycles (see Figure 17). Data can be output on
the ASPORT or the BSPORT, bit RxSPORTSEL in control
register BCRB being used to select the SPORT. Rx data can be
received on one SPORT only, the user cannot interchange from
one SPORT to the other.
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
Writing Over the Baseband (or Auxiliary) SPORT
Writing to and reading from registers via the SPORT involves
the transfer of 16 bit words, 10 bits of data and 6 bits of address
(with the exception of the Rx data). The frame format is as
shown in Figure 19, Bit 15 being the first input bit of the frame.
The destination of the 10-bit data is determined by the 6-bit
destination address as indicated in Figure 19. Note that some
registers are read only and, hence, cannot be written to.
The AD7729 has a standard serial interface which allows the
user to interface the part to several DSPs. In all cases, the
AD7729 operates as the master with the DSP acting as the
slave. The AD7729 provides its own serial clock to clock the
serial data/control information to/from the DSP.
AD7721-to-ADSP-21xx Interface
Figure 21 shows the AD7729 interface to the ADSP-21xx. For
the ADSP-21xx, the bits in the serial port control register
should be set up as TFSR = RFSR = 1 (a frame sync is needed
for each transfer), SLEN = 15 (16-bit word length), TFSW =
RFSW = 0 (normal framing), INVTFS = INVRFS = 0 (active
high frame sync signals), IRFS = 0 (external RFS), ITFS = 1
(internal TFS) and ISCLK = 0 (external serial clock).

Grounding and Layout
ADSP-21xx
Since the analog inputs to the AD7729 are differential, most of
the voltages in the analog modulator are common-mode voltages. The excellent Common-Mode Rejection of the part will
remove common-mode noise on these inputs. The analog and
digital supplies of the AD7729 are independent and separately
pinned out to minimize coupling between analog and digital
sections of the device. The digital filters following the ADCs will
provide rejection of broadband noise on the power supplies,
except at integer multiples of the modulator sampling frequency.
The digital filters also remove noise from the analog inputs
provided the noise source does not saturate the analog modulator. However, because the resolution of the AD7729 ADCs is
high and the noise levels from the AD7729 are so low, care
must be taken with regard to grounding and layout.

The printed circuit board that houses the AD7729 should be
designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated
and confined to certain sections of the board. This facilitates the
use of ground planes that can be easily separated. A minimum
etch technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the
best shielding. Digital and analog ground planes should only be
joined in one place. If the AD7729 is the only device requiring
an AGND-to-DGND connection, the ground planes should be
connected at the AGND-and-DGND pins of the AD7729. If
the AD7729 is in a system where multiple devices require AGNDto-DGND connections, the connection should still be made at
one point only, a star ground point that should be established as
close as possible to the AD7729.

required for each transfer), FO = 0 (16-bit word length).

Power-Down
Each section of the AD7729 can be powered down. The Rx
ADCs and the auxiliary DAC can be powered down individually
by setting the appropriate bits in the control registers. When
each section is powered up, time must be allowed so that the
analog and digital circuitry can settle and, also, time is needed
for the reference REFCAP to power up. To reduce this powerup time, Bit LP can be set to 1 so that when the ADCs and
DAC are powered down, the reference REFCAP remains powered up by setting Bit LP to 1. Therefore, because the reference
is powered up, the time needed for circuitry to settle when a
section is powered up is reduced considerably since the reference does not require time to power up and settle.
When all sections of the AD7729 are powered down, including
the reference, the MCLK is stopped after 64 clock periods following the detection of the low power state. The MCLK reactivates when the AD7729 is communicated with, i.e., the SPORTs
are activated, RxON is taken high, etc.
REV. 0
Avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple
noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be allowed
to run under the AD7729 to avoid noise coupling. The power
supply lines to the AD7729 should use as large a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of
glitches on the power supply lines. Fast switching signals like
clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating
noise to other sections of the board and clock signals should
never be run near the analog inputs. Traces on opposite sides of
the board should run at right angles to each other. This will
reduce the effects of feedthrough through the board. A microstrip
technique is by far the best but is not always possible with a
double-sided board. In this technique, the component side of
the board is dedicated to ground planes while signals are placed
on the other side.
Good decoupling is important when using high speed devices.
All analog and digital supplies should be decoupled to AGND
and DGND respectively with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors in parallel with 10 µF tantalum capacitors. To achieve the best from
these decoupling capacitors, they should be placed as close as
possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. In
systems where a common supply voltage is used to drive both
the AVDD and DVDD of the AD7729, it is recommended that
the system’s AVDD supply be used. This supply should have
the recommended analog supply decoupling between the AVDD
pins of the AD7729 and AGND and the recommended digital
supply decoupling capacitors between the DVDD pins and
DGND.
