GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9261 is a single 16-bit analog-to-digital converter
(ADC) based on a continuous time (CT) sigma-delta (Σ-Δ)
architecture that achieves 87 dBc of dynamic range over a 10 MHz
input bandwidth. The integrated features and characteristics
unique to the continuous time Σ-Δ architecture significantly
simplify its use and minimize the need for external components.
The AD9261 has a resistive input impedance that relaxes the
requirements of the driver amplifier. In addition, a 32× oversampled fifth-order continuous time loop filter significantly attenuates
out-of-band signals and aliases, reducing the need for external
filters at the input.
An external clock input or the integrated integer-N PLL provides
the 640 MHz internal clock needed for the oversampled continuous time Σ-Δ modulator. On-chip decimation filters and sample
rate converters reduce the modulator data rate from 640 MSPS to a
user-defined output data rate from 30 MSPS to 160 MSPS,
enabling a more efficient and direct interface.
The digital output data is presented in offset binary, Gray code,
or twos complement format. A data clock output (DCO) is
provided to ensure proper timing with the receiving logic.
The AD9261 operates on a 1.8 V analog supply and a 1.8 V
to 3.3 V digital supply, consuming 340 mW. The AD9261 is
available in a 48-lead LFCSP and is specified over the industrial
temperature range (−40°C to +85°C).

Typical θJA and θJC are specified for a 4-layer board in still air.
Airflow increases heat dissipation, effectively reducing θJA. In
addition, metal in direct contact with the package leads from
metal traces, through holes, ground, and power planes reduces
the θJA.

Figure 29. Σ-Δ Modulator Overview
The quantizer produces a nine-level digital word. The quantization
noise is spread uniformly over the Nyquist band (see Figure 30),
but the feedback loop causes the quantization noise present in
the nine-level output to have a nonuniform spectral shape. This
noise-shaping technique (see Figure 31) pushes the in-band
noise out of band; therefore, the amount of quantization noise
in the frequency band of interest is minimal.
The digital decimation filter that follows the modulator removes
the large out-of-band quantization noise (see Figure 32), while
also reducing the data rate from fMOD to fMOD/16. If the internal
PLL is enabled, the sample rate converter generates samples at
the same frequency as the input clock frequency. If the internal
PLL is disabled, the sample rate converter can be programmed
to give an output frequency that is a divide ratio of the modulator
clock. The sample rate converter is designed to attenuate images
outside the band of interest (see Figure 33).

QUANTIZATION NOISE
The continuous time modulator removes the need for an antialias filter at the input to the AD9261. A discrete time converter
aliases signals around the sample clock frequency and its multiples
to the band of interest (see Figure 34). Therefore, an external
antialias filter is needed to reject these signals.

DIGITAL FILTER CUTOFF FREQUENCY
The AD9261 uses a continuous time Σ-Δ modulator to convert
the analog input to a digital word. The digital word is processed
by the decimation filter and rate-adjusted by the sample rate
converter (see Figure 29). The modulator consists of a continuous
time loop filter preceding a quantizer that samples at fMOD =
640 MSPS. This produces an oversampling ratio (OSR) of 32 for
a 10 MHz input bandwidth. The output of the quantizer is fed
back to a DAC that ideally cancels the input signal. The incomplete input cancellation residue is filtered by the loop filter and
is used to form the next quantizer sample.
Figure 34. Discrete Time Converter
In contrast, the continuous time Σ-Δ modulator used within the
AD9261 has inherent antialiasing. The antialiasing property
results from sampling occurring at the output of the loop filter
(see Figure 35), and thus aliasing occurs at the same point in the
loop as quantization noise is injected; aliases are shaped by the
same mechanism as quantization noise. The quantization noise
transfer function, NTF(f), has zeros in the band of interest and in
all alias bands because NTF(f) is a discrete time transfer function,
whereas the loop filter transfer function, LF(f), is a continuous
time transfer function, which introduces poles only in the band
of interest. The signal transfer function, being the product of
NTF(f) and LF(f), only has zeros in alias bands and therefore
suppresses all aliases.

Differential Input Configurations
A stable and accurate 0.5 V voltage reference is built into the
AD9261. The reference voltage should be decoupled to minimize
the noise bandwidth using a 10 μF capacitor. The reference is
used to generate a bias current into a matched resistor such that,
when used to bias the current in the feedback DAC, a voltage
of AVDD − 0.5 V is developed at the internal side of the input
resistors (see Figure 39). The current bias circuit should also be
decoupled on the CFILT pin with a 10 μF capacitor. For this
reason, the VREF voltage should always be 0.5 V.
AVDD – 0.5V
The AD9261 can also be configured for differential inputs. The
ADA4937-1 differential driver provides excellent performance
and a flexible interface to the ADC. The output common-mode
voltage of the ADA4937-1 is easily set by connecting AVDD to
the VOCM pin of the ADA4937-1 (see Figure 37). The noise and
linearity of the ADA4937-1 needs important consideration because
the system performance may be limited by the ADA4937-1.

The analog inputs of the AD9261 are not internally dc biased. In
ac-coupled applications, the user must provide this bias externally.
Setting the device such that VCM = AVDD is recommended for
optimum performance. The analog inputs are 500 Ω resistors,
and the internal reference loop aims to develop 0.5 V across
each input resistor (see Figure 36). With 0 V differential input,
the driver sources 1 mA into each analog input.

To minimize thermal noise, the internal reference on the AD9261
is an unbuffered 0.5 V. It has an internal 10 kΩ series resistor,
which, when externally decoupled with a 10 μF capacitor, limits
the noise (see Figure 40). The unbuffered reference should not
be used to drive any external circuitry. The internal reference is
used by default.
Figure 37. Differential Input Configuration Using the ADA4937-1
The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting a
transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a couple of megahertz (MHz), and excessive signal power
can cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.

AVDD to bias the analog input.

CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The AD9261 offers two modes of sourcing the ADC sample
clock (CLK+ and CLK−). The first mode uses an on-chip clock
multiplier that accepts a reference clock operating at the lower
input frequency. The on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) then
multiplies the reference clock up to a higher frequency, which is
then used to generate all the internal clocks required by the ADC
The clock multiplier provides a high quality clock that meets
the performance requirements of most applications. Using the
on-chip clock multiplier removes the burden of generating and
distributing the high speed clock.
The second mode bypasses the clock multiplier circuitry and
allows the clock to be directly sourced. This mode enables the
user to source a very high quality clock directly to the Σ-Δ
modulator. Sourcing the ADC clock directly may be necessary
in demanding applications that require the lowest possible ADC
output noise. Refer to Figure 20, which shows the degradation
in SNR performance for the various PLL settings.
In either case, when using the on-chip clock multiplier or
sourcing the high speed clock directly, it is necessary that the
clock source have low jitter to maximize the ADC noise
performance. High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to
the quality of the clock input. As jitter increases, the SNR
performance of the AD9261 degrades from that specified in
Table 2. The jitter inherent to the part due to the PLL root sum
squares with any external clock jitter, thereby degrading
performance. To prevent jitter from dominating the performance
of the AD9261, the input clock source should be no greater than
1 ps rms of jitter.
The CLK± inputs are self-biased to 450 mV (see Figure 23); if
dc-coupled, it is important to maintain the specified 450 mV
input common-mode voltage. Each input pin can safely swing
from 200 mV p-p to 1 V p-p single-ended about the 450 mV
common-mode voltage. The recommended clock inputs are
CMOS or LVPECL.
The specified clock rate of the Σ-Δ modulator, fMOD, is 640 MHz.
The clock rate possesses a direct relationship with the available
input bandwidth of the ADC.
Bandwidth = fMOD ÷ 64
The default configuration of the AD9261 is for direct clocking
where the PLL is bypassed. Figure 42 shows one preferred method
for clocking the AD9261. A low jitter clock source is converted
from a single-ended signal to a differential signal using an RF
transformer. The back-to-back Schottky diodes across the
secondary side of the transformer limits clock excursions into the
AD9261 to approximately 0.8 V p-p differential. This helps
prevent the large voltage swings of the clock from feeding
through to other portions of the AD9261 while preserving the
fast rise and fall times of the signal, which are critical to
achieving low jitter.

In either case, using the on-chip clock multiplier to generate the
Σ-Δ modulator clock rate or directly sourcing the clock, any
deviation from 640 MHz results in a change in input bandwidth.
The input range of the clock is limited to 640 MHz ± 5%.

The clock multiplication circuit operates such that the VCO
outputs a frequency, fVCO, equal to the reference clock input
multiplied by N
fVCO = (CLK±) × (N)
where N is the PLL multiplication (PLLMULT) factor.
The Σ-Δ modulator clock frequency, fMOD, is equal to
fMOD = fVCO ÷ 2
The reference clock, CLK±, is limited to 30 MHz to 160 MHz
when configured to use the on-chip clock multiplier. Given the
input range of the reference clock and the available multiplication
factors, the fVCO is approximately 1280 MHz. This results in the
desired fMOD rate of 640 MHz with a 50% duty cycle.
Before the PLL enable (PLLENABLE) register bit is set, the PLL
multiplication factor should be programmed into Register
0x0A[5:0]. After setting the PLLENABLE bit, the PLL locks and
reports a locked state in Register 0x0A[7]. If the PLL multiplication factor is changed, the PLL enable bit should be reset and set
again. Some common clock multiplication factors are shown in
Table 11.
The recommended sequence for enabling and programming the
on-chip clock multiplier is summarized in Table 9.

External PLL Control
At power-up, the serial interface is disabled until the first serial
port access. If the serial interface is disabled, the PLLMULTx
pins control the PLL multiplication factor. The five PLLMULTx
pins (Pin 32 to Pin 36) offer all the available multiplication
factors. If all PLLMULTx pins are tied high, the PLL is disabled
and the AD9261 assumes the high frequency modulator clock
rate that is applied to the CLK± pins. Table 12 shows the relationship between PLLMULTx pins and the PLL multiplication factor.

AD9261
PLL Autoband Select
Jitter Considerations
The PLL VCO has a wide operating range that is covered by
overlapping frequency bands. For any desired VCO output
frequency, there are multiple valid PLL band select values. The
AD9261 possesses an automatic PLL band select feature on chip
that determines the optimal PLL band setting. This feature can be
enabled by writing to Register 0x0A[6] and is the recommended
configuration with the PLL clocking option. Follow the sequence
shown in Table 9 for enabling the autoband select and configuring the PLL.
The aperture jitter requirements for continuous time Σ-Δ converters may be more forgiving than Nyquist rate converters. The
continuous time Σ-Δ architecture is an oversampled system,
and to accurately represent the analog input signal to the ADC,
a large number of output samples must be averaged together. As a
result, the jitter contribution from each sample is root sum
squared, resulting in a more subtle impact on noise performance as compared to Nyquist converters where aperture jitter
has a direct impact on each sampled output.
When the device is taken out of sleep or standby mode, Register
0x0A[6] must be toggled to reinitiate the autoband detect.
In the block diagram of the continuous time Σ-Δ modulator
(see Figure 29), the two building blocks most susceptible to
jitter are the quantizer and the DAC. The error introduced
through the sampling process or quantizer is reduced by the
loop gain and shaped in the same way as the quantization noise
and, therefore, its effect can be neglected. On the contrary, the
jitter error associated to the DAC directly adds to the input
signal, thus increasing the in-band noise power and degrading
the modulator performance. The SNR degradation due to jitter
can be represented by the following equation:

Direct clocking
SNR = −20 log (2πfanalogtjitter_rms) dB
where fanalog is the analog input frequency and tjitter_rms is the jitter.
The SNR performance of the AD9261 remains constant within
the input bandwidth of the converter, from dc to 10 MHz.
Therefore, the minimal jitter specification is determined at the
highest input frequency. From the calculation, the aperture
jitter of the input clock must be no greater than 1 ps to achieve
optimal SNR performance.
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
The AD9261 power consumption can be further reduced by
configuring the chip in channel power-down, standby, or sleep
mode. The low power modes turn off internal blocks of the chip
including the reference. As a result, the wake-up time is dependent on the amount of circuitry that is turned off. Fewer internal
circuits that are powered down result in proportionally shorter
wake-up time. The different low power modes are shown in
Table 13. In the standby mode, all clock related activity and the
output channels are disabled. Only the references and CMOS
outputs remain powered up to ensure a short recovery and link
integrity. During sleep mode, all internal circuits are powered
down, putting the device into its lowest power mode, and the
CMOS outputs are disabled.
If the serial port interface is not available, the AD9261 can be
configured in power-down mode by connecting Pin 3 (PDWN)
to AVDD.

DIGITAL ENGINE
Bandwidth Selection
The digital engine (see Figure 46) selects the decimation signal
bandwidth by cascading third-order sinc (sinc3) decimate-by-2
filters. For a 10 MHz signal band, no filters are cascaded; for a
5 MHz signal band, a single filter is used; and for a 2.5 MHz
signal band, the 5 MHz filter is cascaded with a second filter.
Depending on the signal bandwidth, this drops the data rate
into the fixed decimation filter. As a result, lower signal bandwidth
options result in lower power. Bandwidth selection is determined
by setting Register 0x0F[6:5].

The sample rate converter (SRC) allows the flexibility of a userdefined output sample rate, enabling a more efficient and direct

The sample rate converter performs an interpolation and
resampling procedure to provide an output data rate of
20 MSPS to 168 MSPS. Table 16 and Table 17 detail the coefficients for the INT1 and INT2 filters. The sinc filters are a
standard implementation.

The relationship between the output sample rate and the Σ-Δ
modulator clock rate is expressed as follows:
fOUT = fMOD ÷ KOUT
Table 18 shows the available KOUT conversion factors.
If the main clocking source of the AD9261 is provided by the
PLL, it is important that once the PLL has been programmed
and locked, to initiate an SRC reset before programming the
desired KOUT factor. This is done by first writing 0x101[5:0] = 0
and then rewriting to the same register with the appropriate
KOUT value. In addition, if the AD9261 loses its clock source and
then later regains it, an SRC reset should be initiated.
The cascaded filter responses for the three signal bandwidth
settings are for a 160 MSPS output data rate, as shown in Figure 47,
Figure 48, and Figure 49.

The AD9261 has two trip points that can trigger an overrange
condition: analog and digital. The analog trip point is located
in the modulator, and the second trip point is in the digital
engine. In normal operation, it is possible for the analog trip
point to toggle the OR pin for a number of clock cycles as the
analog input approaches full scale. Because the OR pin is a pulsewidth modulated (PWM) signal, as the analog input increases
in amplitude, the duration of overrange pin toggling increases.
Eventually, when the OR pin is high for an extended period of
time, the ADC is overloaded, and there is little correspondence
between analog input and digital output.
Figure 49. 2.5 MHz Signal Bandwidth, 160 MSPS
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
Digital Output Format
The AD9261 offers a variety of digital output formats for ease of
system integration. The digital output consists of 16 data bits and
an output clock signal (DCO) for data latching. The data bits can
be configured for offset binary, twos complement, or Gray code
by writing to Register 0x14[1:0]. In addition, the voltage swing of
the digital outputs can be configured to 3.3 V TTL levels or a
reduced voltage swing of 1.8 V by accessing Register 0x14[7].
When 3.3 V voltage levels are desirable, the DRVDD power
supply must be set to 3.3 V.
Overrange (OR) Condition
The OR pin serves as an indicator for an overrange condition. The
OR pin is triggered by in-band signals that exceed the full-scale
range of the ADC. In addition, the AD9261 possesses out-ofband gain above 10 MHz; therefore, a large out-of-band signal
may trip an overrange condition.
The OR pin is a synchronous output that is updated at the output data rate. Ideally, OR should be latched on the falling edge of
DCO to ensure proper setup-and-hold time. However, because
Table 19 shows the corresponding threshold level in dBFS vs.
register setting. If the input signal crosses this level, the OR pin
is set. In the case where 0x111[5:0] is set to all 0s, the threshold
level is set to the maximum code of 32,76710. This feature
provides a means of reporting the instantaneous amplitude as it
crosses a user-provided threshold. This gives the user a sense
for the signal level without needing to perform a full power
measurement.
The user has the ability to select how the overrange conditions
are reported, and this is controlled through Register 0x111 via
AUTORST, OR_IND, and ORTHRESH (see Table 20). By
enabling the AUTORST bit, Register 0x111[7], if an overrange
occurs, the ADC automatically resets itself. The OR pin remains
high until the automatic reset has completed. If an analog trip
occurs, the modulator resets itself after 16 consecutive clock
cycles of overrange.
If the AD9261 is used in a system that incorporates automatic
gain control (AGC), the OR signal can be used to indicate that
the signal amplitude should be reduced. This may be particularly
effective for use in maximizing the signal dynamic range if the
signal includes high occurrence components that occasionally
exceed full scale by a small amount.
TIMING
The AD9261 provides a data clock out (DCO) pin to assist
in capturing the data in an external register. The data outputs
are valid on the rising edge of DCO, unless changed by setting
Register 0x16[7]. See Figure 2 for a graphical timing description.

AD9261
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase and the length is determined
by the W0 bit and the W1 bit. All data is composed of 8-bit words.
The first bit of each individual byte of serial data indicates whether
a read or write command is issued. This allows the serial data
input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to
an output.
The AD9261 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to configure
the converter for specific functions or operations through a
structured register space provided inside the ADC. This provides
the user added flexibility and customization depending on the
application. Addresses are accessed via the serial port and can
be written to or read from via the port. Memory is organized
into bytes that are further divided into fields, as documented in
the Memory Map section. For detailed operational information,
see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed
ADCs via SPI.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines if
the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing the serial
port to be used to both program the chip as well as to read the
contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/
output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an output
at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
As summarized in Table 21, three pins define the SPI of this ADC.
The SCLK pin synchronizes the read and write data presented
to the ADC. The SDIO pin allows data to be sent and read from
the internal ADC memory map registers. The CSB pin is an active
low control that enables or disables the read and write cycles.
Table 21. Serial Port Interface Pins
Data can be sent in MSB-first or in LSB-first mode. MSB first is
the default setting on power-up and can be changed via the
configuration register. For more information, see the AN-877
Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

The falling edge of CSB in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK determines the start of the framing. Figure 50 and Table 22
provide an example of the serial timing and its definitions.
Description
Setup time between data and rising edge of SCLK
Hold time between data and rising edge of SCLK
Period of the clock
Setup time between CSB and SCLK
Hold time between CSB and SCLK
Minimum period that SCLK should be in a logic
high state
Minimum period that SCLK should be in a logic
low state
tSLOW
Other modes involving CSB are available. CSB can be held low
indefinitely to permanently enable the device (this is called
streaming). CSB can stall high between bytes to allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high, SPI functions are
placed in a high impedance mode.

HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Table 21 comprise the physical interface
between the programming device of the user and the serial port
of the AD9261. The SCLK and CSB pins function as inputs
when using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is bidirectional,
functioning as an input during write phases and as an output
during readback.
such method is described in detail in the AN-812 Application
Note, MicroController-Based Serial Port Interface (SPI) Boot
Circuit.
When the SPI interface is not used, some pins serve a dual
function. When strapped to AVDD or ground during device
power-on, the pins are associated with a specific function.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either
PROM or PIC microcontrollers. This provides the user with the
ability to use an alternate method to program the ADC. One
