GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9060 A/D converter is a 10-bit monolithic converter
capable of word rates of 75 MSPS and above. Innovative
architecture using 512 input comparators instead of the traditional 1024 required by other flash converters reduces input
capacitance and improves linearity.

The AD9060 is available in a 68-lead ceramic leaded (gull wing)
chip carrier package specifically designed for low thermal impedances. Two performance grades for temperatures of both 0°C to
+70°C and –55°C to +125°C ranges are offered to allow the user
to select the linearity best suited for each application. Dynamic
performance is fully characterized and production tested at 25°C.

Inputs and outputs are ECL compatible, which makes the
AD9060 the recommended choice for systems with conversion
rates >30 MSPS to minimize system noise. An overflow bit is
provided to indicate analog input signals greater than +VSENSE.
Voltage sense lines are provided to ensure accurate driving of
the ± VREF voltages applied to the units. Quarter point taps on
the resistor ladder help optimize the integral linearity of the unit.

AD9060
Refer to the Functional Block Diagram. As shown, the AD9060
uses a modified “flash,” or parallel, A/D architecture. The analog input range is determined by an external voltage reference
(+VREF and –VREF), nominally ± 1.75 V. An internal resistor
ladder divides this reference into 512 steps, each representing
two quantization levels. Taps along the resistor ladder (1/4REF,
1/2REF, and 3/4REF) are provided to optimize linearity. Rated performance is achieved by driving these points at 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4,
respectively, of the voltage reference range.
Two-Tone Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) is a frequently cited
specification in receiver design. In narrow-band receivers, thirdorder IMD products result in spurious signals in the pass band
of the receiver. Like mixers and amplifiers, the ADC is characterized with two, equal amplitude, pure input frequencies. The
IMD equals the ratio of the power of either of the two input
signals to the power of the strongest third order IMD signal.
Unlike mixers and amplifiers, the IMD does not always behave
as it does in linear devices (reduced input levels do not result in
predictable reductions in IMD).
The A/D conversion for the nine most significant bits (MSB) is
performed by 512 comparators. The value of the least significant
bit (LSB) is determined by a unique interpolation scheme between
adjacent comparators. The decoding logic processes the comparator outputs and provides a 10-bit code to the output stage
of the converter.
Performance graphs provide typical harmonic and SNR data
for the AD9060 for increasing analog input frequencies. In
choosing an A/D converter, always look at the dynamic range
for the analog input frequency of interest. The AD9060 specifications provide guaranteed minimum limits at three analog
test frequencies.
Flash architecture has an advantage over other A/D architectures
because conversion occurs in one step. This means the performance of the converter is limited primarily by the speed and
matching of the individual comparators. In the AD9060, an innovative interpolation scheme takes advantage of the flash architecture
but minimizes the input capacitance, power, and device count
usually associated with that method of conversion.
Aperture Delay is the delay between the rising edge of the ENCODE
command and the instant at which the analog input is sampled.
Many systems require simultaneous sampling of more than one
analog input signal with multiple ADCs. In these situations timing
is critical, and the absolute value of the aperture delay is not as
critical as the matching between devices.
THEORY OF OPERATION
Aperture Uncertainty, or jitter, is the sample-to-sample variation in
aperture delay. This is especially important when sampling high
slew rate signals in wide bandwidth systems. Aperture uncertainty
is one of the factors that degrades dynamic performance as the
analog input frequency is increased.
These advantages occur because of using only half the normal
number of input comparator cells to accomplish the conversion.
In addition, a proprietary decoding scheme minimizes error codes.
Input control pins allow the user to select from among binary,
inverted binary, twos complement, and inverted twos complement
coding (see Table I, the AD9060 Truth Table).
Digitizing Oscilloscopes
Oscilloscopes provide amplitude information about an observed
waveform with respect to time. Digitizing oscilloscopes must
accurately sample this signal without distorting the information
to be displayed.
APPLICATIONS
Many of the specifications used to describe A/D converters have
evolved from system performance requirements in these applications. Different systems emphasize particular specifications,
depending on how the part is used. The following applications
highlight some of the specifications and features that make the
AD9060 attractive in these systems.
One figure of merit for the ADC in these applications is Effective
Number of Bits (ENOB). ENOB is calculated with a sine wave
curve fit and equals
[
]
ENOB = N – log2 Error (measured ) Error (ideal )
Wideband Receivers
N is the resolution (number of bits) of the ADC. The measured
error is the actual rms error calculated from the converter outputs
with a pure sine wave input.
Radar and communication receivers (baseband and direct
IF digitization), ultrasound medical imaging, signal intelligence,
and spectral analysis all place stringent ac performance requirements on analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Frequency domain
characterization of the AD9060 provides signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
and harmonic distortion data to simplify selection of the ADC.
The Analog Bandwidth of the converter is the analog input frequency at which the spectral power of the fundamental signal is
reduced 3 dB from its low frequency value. The analog bandwidth
is a good indicator of a converter’s slewing capabilities.
Receiver sensitivity is limited by the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
of the system. The SNR for an ADC is measured in the frequency
domain and calculated with a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).
The SNR equals the ratio of the fundamental component of the
signal (rms amplitude) to the rms value of the noise. The noise is
the sum of all other spectral components, including harmonic
distortion but excluding dc.
The Maximum Conversion Rate is defined as the encode rate
at which the SNR for the lowest analog signal test frequency
tested drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit.
Imaging
Visible and infrared imaging systems each require similar characteristics from ADCs. The signal input (from a CCD camera
or multiplexer) is a time division multiplexed signal consisting of
a series of pulses whose amplitude varies in direct proportion to
the intensity of the radiation detected at the sensor. These varying levels are then digitized by applying ENCODE commands at
the correct times, as shown in Figure 1.
Good receiver design minimizes the level of spurious signals in
the system. Spurious signals developed in the ADC are the
result of imperfections in the device transfer function (nonlinearities, delay mismatch, varying input impedance, and
so on). In the ADC, these spurious signals appear as Harmonic
Distortion. Harmonic Distortion is also measured with an FFT
and is specified as the ratio of the fundamental component
of the signal (rms amplitude) to the rms value of the worstcase harmonic (usually the second or third).

Figure 1. Imaging Application Using AD9060
The actual resolution of the converter is limited by the thermal
and quantization noise of the ADC. The low frequency test for
SNR or ENOB is a good measure of the noise of the AD9060.
At this frequency, the static errors in the ADC determine the
useful dynamic range of the ADC.
Although the signal being sampled does not have a significant
slew rate, this does not imply that dynamic performance is not
important. The Transient Response and Overvoltage Recovery Time
specifications ensure that the ADC can track full-scale changes
in the analog input sufficiently fast to capture a valid sample.
Transient Response is the time required for the AD9060 to achieve
full accuracy when a step function is applied. Overvoltage Recovery
Time is the time required for the AD9060 to recover to full accuracy after an analog input signal 150% of full scale is reduced to
the full-scale range of the converter.
Professional Video
Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is now common in television
production. Modern studios rely on digitized video to create stateof-the-art special effects. Video instrumentation also requires high
resolution ADCs for studio quality measurement and frame
storage.
The AD9060 provides sufficient resolution for these demanding
applications. Conversion speed, dynamic performance, and analog
bandwidth are suitable for digitizing both composite and RGB
video sources.
USING THE AD9060
Voltage References
The AD9060 requires the user to provide two voltage references:
+VREF and –VREF. These two voltages are applied across an
internal resistor ladder (nominally 37 Ω) and set the analog input
voltage range of the converter. The voltage references should be
driven from a stable, low impedance source. In addition to these
two references, three evenly spaced taps on the resistor ladder
(1/4REF, 1/2REF, and 3/4REF) are available. Providing a reference
to these quarter points on the resistor ladder will improve the
integral linearity of the converter and improve ac performance
(ac and dc specifications are tested while driving the quarter
points at the indicated levels). The figure below is not intended

Figure 2. Effect of Reference Taps on Linearity
Resistance between the reference connections and the taps of the
first and last comparators causes offset errors. These errors, called
“top and bottom of the ladder offsets,” can be nulled by using
the voltage sense lines, +VSENSE and –VSENSE, to adjust the reference voltages. Current through the sense lines should be limited
to less than 100 µA. Excessive current drawn through the voltage
sense lines will affect the accuracy of the sense line voltage.
Figure 4 shows a reference circuit that nulls out the offset errors
using two op amps and provides appropriate voltage references to
the quarter-point taps. Feedback from the sense lines causes the
op amps to compensate for the offset errors. The two transistors
limit the amount of current drawn directly from the op amps;
resistors at the base connections stabilize their operation. The
10 kΩ resistors (R1–R4) between the voltage sense lines form an
external resistor ladder; the quarter point voltages are taken off
this external ladder and buffered by an op amp. The actual values
of resistors R1–R4 are not critical, but they should match well
and be large enough (≥10 kΩ) to limit the amount of current
drawn from the voltage sense lines.
The select resistors (RS) shown in the schematic (each pair can be
a potentiometer) are chosen to adjust the quarter-point voltage
references but are not necessary if R1–R4 match within 0.05%.
An alternative approach for defining the quarter-point references
of the resistor ladder is to evaluate the integral linearity error of
an individual device and adjust the voltage at the quarter-points
to minimize this error. This may improve the low frequency
ac performance of the converter.

Performance of the AD9060 has been optimized with an analog
input voltage of ± 1.75 V (as measured at ± VSENSE). If the analog
input range is reduced below these values, relatively larger differential nonlinearity errors may result because of comparator
mismatches. As shown in Figure 3, performance of the converter
is a function of ± VSENSE.

Applying a voltage greater than 4 V across the internal resistor
ladder will cause current densities to exceed rated values and
may cause permanent damage to the AD9060. The design of

Data Format
The format of the output data (D0–D9) is controlled by the
MSB INVERT and LSBs INVERT pins. These inputs are dc control inputs and should be connected to GND or +VS. Table I
gives information on how to choose from among binary, inverted
binary, twos complement, and inverted twos complement coding.
The OVERFLOW output is an indication that the analog input
signal has exceeded the voltage at +VSENSE. The accuracy of the
overflow transition voltage and output delay are not tested or
included in the data sheet limits. Performance of the overflow
indicator is dependent on the circuit layout and the slew rate of
the encode signal. The operation of this function does not affect
the other data bits (D0–D9). It is not recommended for applications
requiring a critical measure of analog input voltage.
Timing
Layout and Power Supplies
In the AD9060, the rising edge of the ENCODE signal triggers
the A/D conversion by latching the comparators (see Figure 8).
These ENCODE and ENCODE signals are ECL compatible and
should be driven differentially. Jitter on the ENCODE signal
will raise the noise floor of the converter. Differential signals,
with fast clean edges, will reduce the jitter in the signal and allow
optimum ac performance. In applications with a fixed, high
frequency encode rate, converter performance is also improved
(jitter reduced) by using a crystal oscillator as the system clock.
Proper layout of high speed circuits is always critical but is particularly important when both analog and digital signals are involved.
The AD9060 units are designed to operate with a 50% duty cycle
encode signal; adjustment of the duty cycle may improve the
dynamic performance of individual devices. Since the ENCODE
and ENCODE signals are differential, the logic levels are not critical. Users should remember, however, that reduced logic levels
will reduce the slew rate of the edges and effectively increase the
jitter of the signal. ECL terminations for the ENCODE and
ENCODE signals should be as close as possible to the AD9060
package to avoid reflections.
In systems where only single-ended signals are available, the use of
a high speed comparator (such as the AD96685) is recommended
to convert to differential signals. An alternative is to connect
1.3 V (ECL midpoint) to ENCODE and drive the ENCODE
connection single ended. In such applications, clean, fast edges
are necessary to minimize jitter in the signal.

Analog signal paths should be kept as short as possible and be
properly terminated to avoid reflections. The analog input voltage and the voltage references should be kept away from digital
signal paths; this reduces the amount of digital switching noise
that is capacitively coupled into the analog section of the circuit.
Digital signal paths should also be kept short, and run lengths
should be matched to avoid propagation delay mismatch. Terminations for ECL signals should be as close as possible to
the receiving gate.
In high speed circuits, layout of the ground circuit is a critical
factor. A single, low impedance ground plane on the component
side of the board will reduce noise on the circuit ground. Power
supplies should be capacitively coupled to the ground plane to
reduce noise in the circuit. Multilayer boards allow designers to
lay out signal traces without interrupting the ground plane and
provide low impedance power planes.
It is especially important to maintain the continuity of the ground
plane under and around the AD9060. In systems with dedicated
digital and analog grounds, all grounds of the AD9060 should be
connected to the analog ground plane.
The power supplies (+VS and –VS) of the AD9060 should be
isolated from the supplies used for external devices; this further
reduces the amount of noise coupled into the A/D converter.
Sockets limit the dynamic performance and should be used only
for prototypes or evaluation—PCK Elastomerics Part No. CCS6855
is recommended for the LCC package.
An evaluation board is available to aid designers and provide a
suggested layout.
