A –5– AD9020 Receiver sensitivity is limited by the Signal-to-Noise Ratio 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. THEORY OF OPERATION Refer to the AD9020 block diagram. As shown, the AD9020 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. The A/D conversion for the nine most significant bits (MSBs) 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. 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, etc.). 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 worst case harmonic (usually the 2nd or 3rd). 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). Flash architecture has an advantage over other A/D architectures because conversion occurs in one step. This means the performance of the converter is primarily limited by the speed and matching of the individual comparators. In the AD9020, an innovative interpolation scheme takes advantage of flash architecture but minimizes the input capacitance, power and device count usually associated with that method of conversion. These advantages occur by 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 AD9020 Truth Table). Performance graphs provide typical harmonic and SNR data for the AD9020 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 AD9020 specifications provide guaranteed minimum limits at three analog test frequencies. APPLICATIONS Many of the specifications used to describe analog/digital 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 AD9020 attractive in these systems. 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. Wideband Receivers 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 AD9020 provides signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and harmonic distortion data to simplify selection of the ADC. 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 degrade dynamic performance as the analog input frequency is increased. –6– REV. A AD9020 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. One figure of merit for the ADC in these applications is Effective Number of Bits (ENOBs). ENOB is calculated with a sine wave curve fit and equals: ENOB = N – LOG2 [Error (measured)/Error (ideal)] 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. 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 stewing capabilities. 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 both 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 below. 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 AD9020. 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 dynamic performance is not important. The Transient Response and Overvoltage Recovery Time specifications insure 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 AD9020 to achieve full accuracy when a step function is applied. Overvoltage Recovery Time is the time required for the AD9020 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 state-of-the-art special effects. Video instrumentation also requires high resolution ADCs for studio quality measurement and frame storage. The AD9020 provides sufficient resolution for these demanding applications. Conversion speed, dynamic performance and analog bandwidth are suitable for digitizing both composite and RGB video sources. +FS AIN AD9020 – FS ENCODE Imaging Application Using AD9020 REV. A –7– AD9020 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%. USING THE AD9020 Voltage References The AD9020 requires that the user 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, 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 to show the transfer function of the ADC, but illustrates how the linearity of the device is affected by reference voltages applied to the ladder. 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. 62 10.0 56 9.0 50 8.0 44 7.0 38 6.0 32 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 1.4 1.2 ±VSENSE – Volts 1.6 1.8 EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB) SIGNAL-TO-NOISE (SNR) – dB Performance of the AD9020 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 the figure below, performance of the converter is a function of ± VSENSE. 5.0 2.0 AD9020 SNR and ENOB vs. Reference Voltage Effect of Reference Taps on Linearity 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 AD9020. The design of the reference circuit should limit the voltage available to the references. 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. Analog Input Signal The signal applied to ANALOG IN drives the inputs of 512 parallel comparator cells (see Equivalent Analog Input figure). This connection typically has an input resistance of 7 kΩ, and input capacitance of 45 pF. The input capacitance is nearly constant over the analog input voltage range, as shown in the graph which illustrates that characteristic. The next page shows a reference circuit which 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 analog input signal should be driven from a low distortion, low noise amplifier. A good choice is the AD9617, a wide bandwidth, monolithic operational amplifier with excellent ac and dc performance. The input capacitance should be isolated by a small series resistor (24 Ω for the AD9617) to improve the ac performance of the amplifier (see AD9020/PCB Evaluation Board Block Diagram). –8– REV.

(See the AD9020 Timing Diagram.) Proper layout of high speed circuits is always critical but is particularly important when both analog and digital signals are involved. The ENCODE is TTL/CMOS compatible and should be driven from a low jitter (phase noise) source. Jitter on the ENCODE signal will raise the noise floor of the converter. Fast, clean edges will reduce the jitter in the signal and allow optimum ac performance. Locking the system clock to a crystal oscillator also helps reduce jitter. The AD9020 is designed to operate with a 50% duty cycle; small (10%) variations in duty cycle should not degrade performance. 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. 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 GROUND or +VS. The AD9020 Truth Table gives information 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 circuit layout and 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 the analog input voltage. 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 AD9020. In systems with dedicated digital and analog grounds, all grounds of the AD9020 should be connected to the analog ground plane. The power supplies (+VS and –VS) of the AD9020 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 # CCS-6855 is recommended for the LCC package.
