For most applications, no external sample-and-hold is required for accurate conversion due to the device's narrow aperture time, wide bandwidth, and low input capacitance. A single standard -5.2V power supply is required to operate the MAX1114, with nominal 2.2W power dissipation. A special decoding scheme reduces metastable errors to 1LSB. The part is packaged in a 42-pin ceramic sidebraze that is pin-compatible with the CX20116 and CXA1396D. The surface-mount 44-pin CERQUAD allows access to additional reference ladder taps, an overrange bit, and a data-ready output. For higher conversion rates, the pin-compatible 300Msps MAX1125 is available.

A major advance over previous flash converters is the inclusion of 256 input preamplifiers between the reference ladder and input comparators. (See Functional Diagram.) This feature not only reduces clock-transient kickback to the input and reference ladder due to a low AC beta, but also reduces the effect of the dynamic state of the input signal on the latching characteristics of the input comparators. The preamplifiers act as buffers and stabilize the input capacitance so it remains constant for varying input voltages and frequencies, making the part easier to drive than previous flash converters. The MAX1114 incorporates a special decoding scheme that reduces metastable errors (sparkle codes or flyers) to a maximum of 1LSB. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 5 MAX1114 ______________________________________________________________Pin Description MAX1114 8-Bit, 150Msps Flash ADC The MAX1114 has true differential analog and digital data paths from the preamplifiers to the output buffers (Current-Mode Logic) for reducing potential missing codes while rejecting common-mode noise. Careful layout of the analog circuitry reduces signature errors. Every comparator has a clock buffer to reduce differential delays and to improve signal-to-noise ratio. The output drive capability of the device can provide full ECL swings into 50Ω loads. ___________Typical Interface Circuit Figure 1 shows the typical interface circuit. The MAX1114 is relatively easy to apply, depending on the accuracy needed. Wire-wrap may be employed with careful point-to-point ground connections if desired, but a double-sided PC board with a ground plane on the component side, separated into digital and analog sections gives the best performance. The converter is bonded-out to place the digital pins on the left side of the package and the analog pins on the right side. Additionally, an RF bead connection through a single point from the analog to digital ground planes reduces ground noise pickup. Figure 2 (CERQUAD package only) shows the most elaborate method of achieving the least error by correcting for integral nonlinearity, input-induced distortion, and power-supply/ground noise. It uses external reference ladder tap connections, an input buffer, and supply decoupling. The function of each pin and external connections to other components is as follows: VEE, AGND, DGND V EE is the supply pin with AGND as ground for the device. The power-supply pins should be bypassed as close to the device as possible with at least a 0.01µF ceramic capacitor. A 1µF tantalum should also be used for low-frequency suppression. DGND is the ground for the ECL outputs and should be referenced to the output pulldown voltage and bypassed as shown in Figure 1. Analog Input VIN There are two analog input pins that are tied to the same point internally. Either one may be used as an analog input sense and the other for input force. This is convenient for testing the source signal to see if there is sufficient drive capability. The pins can also be tied together and driven by the same source. The MAX1114 is superior to similar devices due to a preamplifier stage before the comparators (Figure 4). This makes the device easier to drive because it has constant capacitance and induces less slew-rate distortion. An optional input buffer may be used. 6 Clock Inputs CLK, CLK The clock inputs are designed to be driven differentially with ECL levels. The clock may be driven single-ended since CLK is internally biased to -1.3V (Figure 5). CLK may be left open but a 0.01µF bypass capacitor from CLK to AGND is recommended. NOTE: System performance may be degraded due to increased clock noise or jitter. Output Logic Control MINV, LINV These are ECL-compatible digital controls for changing the output code from straight binary to two's complement, etc. (Table 1 and Figure 4). Both MINV and LINV are in the logic low (0) state when they are left open. The high state can be obtained by tying to AGND through a diode or 3.9kΩ resistor. Table 1.

When pulled down to -5.2V, the outputs can drive 150Ω to 1kΩ loads. Reference Inputs VRBF, VR2, VRTF There are two reference inputs and one external reference voltage tap. These are -2V (VRBF), mid-tap (VR2) and AGND (VRTF). The reference pins can be driven as shown in Figure 1. VR2 should be bypassed to AGND for further noise suppression. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 8-Bit, 150Msps Flash ADC These are five external reference voltage taps from -2V (VRBF) to AGND (VRTF) which can be used to control integral linearity over temperature. The taps can be driven by op amps (Figure 2). These voltage level inputs can be bypassed to AGND for further noise suppression, if so desired. VRB and VRT have force and sense pins for monitoring the top and bottom voltage references. Not Connected (N.C.) All N.C. pins should be tied to DGND on the left side of the package and to AGND on the right side of the package. Data Ready and Data-Ready Inverse DREADY, DRINV (CERQUAD package only) The data-ready pin is a flag that goes high or low at the output when data is valid or ready to be received. It is essentially a delay line that accounts for the time necessary for information to be clocked through the MAX1114’s decoders and latches. This function is useful for interfacing with high-speed memory. Using the data-ready output to latch the output data ensures minimum setup and hold times. DRINV is a data-ready inverse control pin (Figure 3). Overrange Input D8 (CERQUAD package only) When the MAX1114 is in an overrange condition, D8 goes high and all data outputs go high as well. This makes it possible to include the MAX1114 in higher resolution systems. Operation The MAX1114 has 256 preamp/comparator pairs that are each supplied with the voltage from VRTF to VRBF divided equally by the resistive ladder as shown in the Functional Diagram. This voltage is applied to the positive input of each preamplifier/comparator pair. An analog input voltage applied at VIN is connected to the negative inputs of each preamplifier/comparator pair. The comparator states are then clocked through each comparator's individual clock buffer. When CLK is low, the master, or input stage, of the comparators compares the analog input voltage to the respective reference voltage. When CLK changes from low to high, the comparators are latched to the state prior to the clock transition and output logic codes in sequence from the top comparators, closest to VRTF (0V), down to the point where the magnitude of the input signal changes sign (thermometer code). The output of each comparator is then registered into four 64-to-6 bit decoders when CLK is changed from high to low. At the decoders' output is a set of four 7-bit latches that are enabled (track) when CLK changes from high to low. From here, the outputs of the latches are coded into 6 LSBs from 4 columns and 4 columns are coded into 2 MSBs. Next are the MINV and LINV controls for output inversions that consist of a set of eight XOR gates. Finally, 8 ECL output latches and buffers are used to drive the external loads. The conversion takes one clock cycle from the input to the data outputs. _________________Evaluation Boards The MAX1114/MAX1125 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the full performance of the MAX1114. This board includes a voltage reference circuit, clock driver circuit, output data latches and an on-board reconstruction of the digital data.
