CALIBRATION TIME vs fS FN6813.1 April 14, 2011 KAD2708L Functional Description Voltage Reference The KAD2708L is an 8-bit, 350MSPS A/D converter in a pipelined architecture. The input voltage is captured by a sample-and-hold circuit and converted to a unit of charge. Proprietary charge-domain techniques are used to compare the input to a series of reference charges. These comparisons determine the digital code for each input value. The converter pipeline requires 24 sample clocks to produce a result. Digital error correction is also applied, resulting in a total latency of 28 clock cycles. This is evident to the user as a latency between the start of a conversion and the data being available on the digital outputs. The VREF pin is the full-scale reference, which sets the full-scale input voltage for the chip and requires a bypass capacitor of 0.1µF or larger. An internally generated reference voltage is provided from a bandgap voltage buffer. This buffer can sink or source up to 50µA externally. At start-up, a self-calibration is performed to minimize gain and offset errors. The reset pin (RST) is initially held low internally at power-up and remains in that state until calibration is complete. The clock frequency should remain fixed during this time. An external voltage can be applied to this pin to provide a more accurate reference than the internally generated bandgap voltage or to match the full-scale reference among a system of KAD2708L chips. One option in the latter configuration is to use one KAD2708L's internally generated reference as the external reference voltage for the other chips in the system. Additionally, an externally provided reference can be changed from the nominal value to adjust the full-scale input voltage within a limited range. Calibration accuracy is maintained for the sample rate at which it is performed and therefore should be repeated if the clock frequency is changed by more than 10%. Recalibration can be initiated via the RST pin, or power cycling, at any time. To select whether the full-scale reference is internally generated or externally provided, the digital input port, VREFSEL, should be set appropriately: low for internal, or high for external. This pin also has an internal 18kΩ pull-up resistor. To use the internally generated reference, VREFSEL can be tied directly to AVSS, and to use an external reference, VREFSEL can be left unconnected. Reset Analog Input Recalibration of the ADC can be initiated at any time by driving the RST pin low for a minimum of one clock cycle. An open-drain driver is recommended. The fully differential ADC input (INP/INN) connects to the sample-and-hold circuit. The ideal full-scale input voltage is 1.5VP-P, centered at the VCM voltage of 0.86V, as shown in Figure 22. The calibration sequence is initiated on the rising edge of RST, as shown in Figure 21. The over-range output (ORP) is set high once RST is pulled low, and it remains in that state until calibration is complete. The ORP output returns to normal operation at that time, so it is important that the analog input be within the converter’s full-scale range in order to observe the transition. If the input is in an over-range state, the ORP pin stays high, and it is not possible to detect the end of the calibration cycle. While RST is low, the output clock (CLKOUTP/CLKOUTN) stops toggling and is set low. Normal operation of the output clock resumes at the next input clock edge (CLKP/CLKN) after RST is deasserted. At 350MSPS, the nominal calibration time is ~190ms. CLKN CLKP Calibration Time RST Calibration Begins V 1.8 1.4 0.75V INN INP VCM 1.0 0.86V 0.6 -0.75V 0.2 t FIGURE 22. ANALOG INPUT RANGE Best performance is obtained when the analog inputs are driven differentially. The common-mode output voltage, VCM, should be used to properly bias each input, as shown in Figures 23 and 24. An RF transformer gives the best noise and distortion performance for wideband and/or high intermediate frequency (IF) inputs. Two different transformer input schemes are shown in Figures 23 and 24.

TRANSFORMER INPUT, GENERAL APPLICATION The clock input circuit is a differential pair (Figure 29). Driving these inputs with a high level (up to 1.8VP-P on each input) sine or square wave provides the lowest jitter performance. The recommended drive circuit is shown in Figure 26. The clock can be driven single-ended, but this reduces the edge rate and may impact SNR performance. Ω 1kO Ω 1kO AVDD2 CLKP 1nF ADTL1-12 Analog Input ADTL1-12 Ω 25O 1nF KAD2708 1nF A back-to-back transformer scheme is used to improve common-mode rejection, which keeps the common-mode level of the input matched to VCM. The value of the termination resistor should be determined based on the desired impedance. The sample-and-hold circuit design uses a switched capacitor input stage, which creates current spikes when the sampling capacitance is reconnected to the input voltage. This creates a disturbance at the input, which must settle before the next sampling point. Lower source impedance results in faster settling and improved performance; therefore, a 1:1 transformer and low shunt resistance are recommended for optimal performance. A differential amplifier can be used in applications that require DC coupling, at the expense of reduced dynamic performance. In this configuration, the amplifier typically reduces the achievable SNR and distortion performance. A typical differential amplifier configuration is shown in Figure 25.

The KAD2708L's ADC requires a clock with 50% duty cycle for optimum performance. If such a clock is not available, one option is to generate twice the desired sampling rate, and then use the KAD2708L's divide-by-2 to generate a 50%-duty-cycle clock. This frequency divider uses the rising edge of the clock, so a 50% clock duty cycle is assured. Table 2 describes the CLKDIV connection. TABLE 2. CLKDIV PIN SETTINGS CLKDIV PIN DIVIDE RATIO AVSS 2 AVDD 1 CLKDIV is internally pulled low, so a pull-up resistor or logic driver must be connected for undivided clock. Jitter In a sampled data system, clock jitter directly impacts the achievable SNR performance.

This relationship shows the SNR that would be achieved if clock jitter were the only non-ideal factor. In reality, achievable SNR is limited by internal factors such as differential nonlinearity aperture jitter and thermal noise. FN6813.1 April 14, 2011 KAD2708L Any internal aperture jitter combines with the input clock jitter in a root-sum-square fashion, since they are not statistically correlated, and this determines the total jitter in the system. The total jitter, combined with other noise sources, then determines the achievable SNR. 10 0 95 tj=0.1 ps 90 14 Bits SN R - dB 85 80 tj=1 ps 12 Bits 75 Digital Outputs 70 tj=10 p s 65 60 Data is output on a parallel bus with LVDS-compatible drivers. 1 0 Bits tj=1 00 ps 55 The output format (Binary or Two’s Complement) is selected via the 2SC pin as shown in Table 3. 50 1 10 1 00 1 00 0 In put Fr equen cy - MH z TABLE 3. 2SC PIN SETTINGS FIGURE 27.

LVDS OUTPUTS 14 FN6813.1 April 14, 2011 KAD2708L Layout Considerations Split Ground and Power Planes Data converters operating at high sampling frequencies require extra care in PC board layout. Many complex board designs benefit from isolating the analog and digital sections. Analog supply and ground planes should be laid out under signal and clock inputs. Locate the digital planes under outputs and logic pins. Ground planes, if separated, should be joined at the exposed paddle under the chip. Clock Input Considerations Use matched transmission lines to the inputs for the analog input and clock signals. Locate transformers, drivers and terminations as close to the chip as possible. Bypass and Filtering Aperture Jitter is the RMS variation in aperture delay for a set of samples. Clock Duty Cycle is the ratio of the time the clock wave is at logic high to the total time of one clock period. Differential Non-Linearity (DNL) is the deviation of any code width from an ideal 1 LSB step. Effective Number of Bits (ENOB) is an alternate method of specifying Signal to Noise-and-Distortion Ratio (SINAD). In dB, it is calculated as: ENOB = (SINAD - 1.76)/6.02. Integral Non-Linearity (INL) is the deviation of each individual code from a line drawn from negative full-scale (1/2 LSB below the first code transition) through positive full-scale (1/2 LSB above the last code transition). The deviation of any given code from this line is measured from the center of that code. Bulk capacitors should have low equivalent series resistance. Tantalum is a good choice. For best performance, keep ceramic bypass capacitors very close to device pins. Longer traces increase inductance, resulting in diminished dynamic performance and accuracy. Make sure that connections to ground are direct and low impedance. Least Significant Bit (LSB) is the bit that has the smallest value or weight in a digital word. Its value in terms of input voltage is VFS/(2N-1) where N is the resolution in bits. LVDS Outputs Most Significant Bit (MSB) is the bit that has the largest value or weight. Its value in terms of input voltage is VFS/2. Output traces and connections must be designed for 50Ω (100Ω differential) characteristic impedance. Keep traces direct, and minimize bends where possible. Avoid crossing ground and power-plane breaks with signal traces. Unused Inputs The RST and 2SC inputs are internally pulled up and can be left open-circuit if not used. CLKDIV is internally pulled low, which divides the input clock by two. VREFSEL is internally pulled up. It must be held low for internal reference, but it can be left open for external reference. Definitions Analog Input Bandwidth is the analog input frequency at which the spectral output power at the fundamental frequency (as determined by FFT analysis) is reduced by 3dB from its full-scale, low-frequency value. This is also referred to as Full Power Bandwidth. Aperture Delay or Sampling Delay is the time required after the rise of the clock input for the sampling switch to open, at which time the signal is held for conversion. Missing Codes are output codes that are skipped and never appear at the ADC output. These codes cannot be reached with any input value. Pipeline Delay is the number of clock cycles between the initiation of a conversion and the appearance at the output pins of the corresponding data. Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR) is the ratio of a change in power supply voltage to the input voltage necessary to negate the resultant change in output code. Signal to Noise-and-Distortion (SINAD) is the ratio of the RMS signal amplitude to the RMS sum of all other spectral components below one-half the clock frequency, including harmonics but excluding DC. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) (without Harmonics) is the ratio of the RMS signal amplitude to the RMS sum of all other spectral components below one-half the sampling frequency, excluding harmonics and DC. Spurious-Free-Dynamic Range (SFDR) is the ratio of the RMS signal amplitude to the RMS value of the peak spurious spectral component. The peak spurious spectral component may or may not be a harmonic. Two-Tone SFDR is the ratio of the RMS value of either input tone to the RMS value of the peak spurious component. The peak spurious component may or may not be an IMD product. All Intersil U.S. products are manufactured, assembled and tested utilizing ISO9000 quality systems.
