It is designed to support digitizing high frequency, wide dynamic range signals with an input bandwidth up to 780 MHz. The output data are serialized and presented in packet format, consisting of channel-specific information, coded samples, and error correction code. The ADC requires a single 1.8 V power supply and the input clock may be driven differentially with a sine wave, LVPECL, TTL, or LVDS. A clock duty cycle stabilizer allows high performance at full speed with a wide range of clock duty cycles. The on-chip reference eliminates the need for external decoupling and can be adjusted by means of SPI control. Various power-down and standby modes are supported. The ADC typically consumes 145 mW per channel with the digital link still in operation when standby operation is enabled. Rev. E Fabricated on an advanced CMOS process, the AD9239 is available in a Pb-free/RoHS-compliant, 72-lead LFCSP package. It is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Four ADCs are contained in a small, space-saving package. An on-chip PLL allows users to provide a single ADC sampling clock, and the PLL distributes and multiplies up to produce the corresponding data rate clock. Coded data rate supports up to 4.0 Gbps per channel. Coding includes scrambling to ensure proper dc common mode, embedded clock, and error correction. The AD9239 operates from a single 1.8 V power supply. Flexible synchronization schemes and programmable mode pins. On-chip temperature sensor.

E | Page 18 of 40 Data Sheet AD9239 THEORY OF OPERATION series with each input can help reduce the peak transient current injected from the output stage of the driving source. The AD9239 architecture consists of a differential input buffer, front-end sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) followed by a pipelined switched capacitor ADC. The quantized outputs from each stage are combined into a final 12-bit result in the digital correction logic. The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate on a new input sample, while the remaining stages operate on preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of the clock. In addition, low-Q inductors or ferrite beads can be placed on each leg of the input to reduce high differential capacitance at the analog inputs and therefore achieve the maximum bandwidth of the ADC. Such use of low-Q inductors or ferrite beads is required when driving the converter front end at high intermediate frequency (IF). Either a shunt capacitor or two single-ended capacitors can be placed on the inputs to provide a matching passive network. This ultimately creates a low-pass filter at the input to limit unwanted broadband noise. See the AN-827 Application Note and the Analog Dialogue article “Transformer-Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters” (Volume 39, April 2005) for more information on this subject. In general, the precise values depend on the application. Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low resolution flash ADC connected to a switched capacitor DAC and interstage residue amplifier (for example, a multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC)). The residue amplifier magnifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. One bit of redundancy is used in each stage to facilitate digital correction of flash errors. The last stage simply consists of a flash ADC. Maximum SNR performance is achieved by setting the ADC to the largest span in a differential configuration. In the case of the AD9239, the default input span is 1.25 V p-p. To configure the ADC for a different input span, see Register 18. For the best performance, an input span of 1.25 V p-p or greater should be used (see Table 16 for details). The input stage contains a differential SHA that can be ac- or dc-coupled in differential or single-ended mode. The output of the pipeline ADC is put into its final serial format by the data serializer, encoder, and CML drivers block. The data rate multiplier creates the clock used to output the high speed serial data at the CML outputs. Differential Input Configurations There are several ways to drive the AD9239 either actively or passively; in either case, optimum performance is achieved by driving the analog input differentially. For example, using the ADA4937 differential amplifier to drive the AD9239 provides excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC (see Figure 45 and Figure 46) for baseband and second Nyquist (~100 MHz IF) applications. In either application, 1% resistors should be used for good gain matching. It should also be noted that the dc-coupled configuration will show some degradation in spurious performance. For further reference, consult the ADA4937 data sheet. ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS The analog input to the AD9239 is a differential buffer. This input is optimized to provide superior wideband performance and requires that the analog inputs be driven differentially. SNR and SINAD performance degrades if the analog input is driven with a single-ended signal. For best dynamic performance, the source impedances driving VIN + x and VIN − x should be matched such that commonmode settling errors are symmetrical. These errors are reduced by the common-mode rejection of the ADC.

The low jitter clock source is converted from a single-ended signal to a differential signal using an RF transformer. The back-toback Schottky diodes across the secondary transformer limit clock excursions into the AD9239 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 AD9239, and it preserves the fast rise and fall times of the signal, which are critical to low jitter performance.

This signal is typically ac-coupled to the CLK+ and CLK− pins via a transformer or capacitors. These pins are biased internally to 1.2 V and require no additional biasing. CLK+ input circuit supply is AVDD (1.8 V), this input is designed to withstand input voltages of up to 3.3 V and therefore offers several selections for the drive logic voltage. Figure 54. Differential LVDS Sample Clock In some applications, it is acceptable to drive the sample clock inputs with a single-ended CMOS signal. In such applications, CLK+ should be driven directly from a CMOS gate, and the CLK− pin should be bypassed to ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor in parallel with a 39 kΩ resistor (see Figure 55). Although the 06980-022 CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS Figure 56. Single-Ended 3.3 V CMOS Sample Clock Clock Duty Cycle Considerations Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a variety of internal timing signals. As a result, these ADCs may be sensitive to the clock duty cycle. Commonly, a 5% tolerance is required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance characteristics. The AD9239 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) that retimes the nonsampling edge, providing an internal clock signal with a nominal 50% duty cycle. This allows a wide range of clock input duty cycles without affecting the performance of the AD9239. When the DCS is on (default), noise and distortion performance are nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles. However, some applications may require the DCS function to be off. If so, keep in mind that the dynamic range performance may be affected when operated in this mode. See the Memory Map section for more details on using this feature. Jitter in the rising edge of the input is an important concern, and it is not reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The duty cycle control loop does not function for clock rates of less than 50 MHz nominal. It is not recommended that this ADC clock be dynamic in nature. Moving the clock around dynamically requires long wait times for the back end serial capture to retime and resynchronize to the receiving logic. This long time constant far exceeds the time it takes for the DCS and PLL to lock and stabilize. Only in rare applications would it be necessary to disable the DCS circuitry of Register 9 (see Table 16). Keeping the DCS circuit enabled is recommended to maximize ac performance. Rev.

Power supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the ADC output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators are the best clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type of source (by gating, dividing, or another method), it should be retimed by the original clock during the last step. 0.6 1.4 POWER (W) In this equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the root mean square of all jitter sources, including the clock input, analog input signal, and ADC aperture jitter.

E | Page 22 of 40 Data Sheet AD9239 Digital Start-Up Sequence Digital Outputs and Timing The output digital data from the AD9239 is coded and packetized, which requires the device to have a certain start-up sequence. A specific set of procedures must be initialized by the user to capture coherent data at the receiving logic and optionally minimize skew and time misalignment. The AD9239 has differential digital outputs that power up on default. The driver current is derived on chip and sets the output current at each output equal to a nominal 4 mA. Each output presents a 100 Ω dynamic internal termination to reduce unwanted reflections. Minimize Skew and Time Misalignment (Optional) A 100 Ω differential termination resistor should be placed at each receiver input to result in a nominal 400 mV p-p swing at the receiver. Alternatively, single-ended 50 Ω termination can be used. When single-ended termination is used, the termination voltage should be DRVDD/2; otherwise, ac coupling capacitors can be used to terminate to any single-ended voltage. 1. 2. 3. Power down the device fully through the external PDWN pin. Perform a chip reset via the external RESET pin. Power up the device by releasing the external PDWN pin. Link Initialization (Required) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Initialize a soft reset via Bit 5 of Register 0 (see Table 16). All PGMx pins are automatically initialized as sync pins by default. Use these pins to lock the FPGA timing and data capture during initial startup. These pins are respective to each channel (PGM3 = Channel A). Each sync pin is held low until its respective PGMx pin receives a high signal input from the receiver, during which time the ADC outputs a training pattern. The training pattern values are shown in Table 9. These values can also be read back via the SPI in Register 19 through Register 20. When the receiver finds the frame boundary, the sync identification is deasserted high via the sync pin or via an SPI write. The ADC outputs the valid data on the next packet boundary. The time necessary for sync establishment is highly dependent on the receiver logic processing. Refer to the Switching Specifications section; the switching timing is directly related to the ADC channel. When the device reaches steady state operation, the PGMx pins can each be assigned to be a standby option by using Register 53 (see Table 16). All other pins act as universal sync pins. The AD9239 digital outputs can interface with custom applicationspecific integrated circuits (ASICs) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) receivers, providing superior switching performance in noisy environments. Single point-to-point net topologies are recommended with a single differential 100 Ω termination resistor placed as close to the receiver logic as possible. The common mode of the digital output automatically biases itself to half the supply of DRVDD if dc-coupled connecting is used. For receiver logic that is not within the bounds of the DRVDD supply, an ac-coupled connection should be used. Simply place a 0.1 μF capacitor on each output pin and derive a 100 Ω differential termination close to the receiver side. If there is no far-end receiver termination or there is poor differential trace routing, timing errors may result. To avoid such timing errors, it is recommended that the trace length be less than 6 inches and that the differential output traces be close together and at equal lengths. 100Ω DIFFERENTIAL TRACE PAIR DRVDD DOUT + x RECEIVER 100Ω DOUT – x VCM = DRVDD/2 OUTPUT SWING = 400mV p-p 06980-092 To minimize skew and time misalignment between each channel of the digital outputs, take the following actions to ensure that each channel data packet is within ±1 clock cycle of its specified switching time. For some receiver logic, this is not required. Figure 61. DC-Coupled Digital Output Termination Example VRXCM Table 9.

Digital Outputs Data Eye with Trace Lengths Greater than 12 Inches on Standard FR-4, External 100 Ω Terminations at Receiver An example of the digital output (default) data eye and a time interval error (TIE) jitter histogram with trace lengths less than 6 inches on standard FR-4 material is shown in Figure 63. Figure 64 shows an example of trace lengths exceeding 12 inches on standard FR-4 material. Notice that the TIE jitter histogram reflects the decrease of the data eye opening as the edge deviates from the ideal position. It is the user’s responsibility to determine if the waveforms meet the timing budget of the design when the trace lengths exceed 6 inches. Additional SPI options allow the user to further increase the output driver voltage swing of all four outputs in order to drive longer trace lengths (see Register 15 in Table 16). Even though this produces sharper rise and fall times on the data edges and is less prone to bit errors, the power dissipation of the DRVDD supply increases when this option is used. See the Memory Map section for more details. The format of the output data is offset binary by default. An example of the output coding format can be found in Table 10. To change the output data format to twos complement or gray code, see the Memory Map section. Table 10.

The data rate for each serial stream is equal to N bits times the sample clock rate, in addition to some amount of overhead to account for the 8-bit header and error correction, for a maximum of 3.36 Gbps (that is, 12 bits × 210 MSPS × 64/48 = 3.36 Gbps). The lowest typical clock rate is 100 MSPS. For clock rates slower than 100 MSPS, refer to Register 21 in the SPI Memory Map. This option allows the user to adjust the PLL loop bandwidth in order to use clock rates as low as 50 MSPS. Rev. E | Page 24 of 40 Data Sheet AD9239 Table 11.

Register 14 allows the user to invert the digital outputs from their nominal state. This is not to be confused with inverting the serial stream to an LSB-first mode. In default mode, as shown in Figure 2, the MSB is first in the data output serial stream. However, this can be inverted so that the LSB is first in the data output serial stream. There are eight digital output test pattern options available that can be initiated through the SPI. This feature is useful when validating receiver capture and timing. Refer to Table 11 for the output bit sequencing options available. Some test patterns have two serial sequential words and can be alternated in various ways, depending on the test pattern chosen. It should be noted that some patterns do not adhere to the data format select option. The PN sequence short pattern produces a pseudorandom bit sequence that repeats itself every 29 − 1 or 511 bits. A description of the PN sequence and how it is generated can be found in Section 5.1 of the ITU-T 0.150 (05/96) standard. The only difference is that the starting value must be a specific value instead of all 1s (see Table 12 for the initial values). The PN sequence long pattern produces a pseudorandom bit sequence that repeats itself every 223 − 1 or 8,388,607 bits. A description of the PN sequence and how it is generated can be found in Section 5.6 of the ITU-T 0.150 (05/96) standard. The only differences are that the starting value must be a specific value instead of all 1s (see Table 12 for the initial values) and the AD9239 inverts the bit stream with relation to the ITU standard. Digital Output Scrambler and Error Code Correction The data from the AD9239 is sent serially in packets of 64 bits. These numbers are derived from the necessity to have the output data streaming at 16× the encode clock. The data packets consist of a header, data, and error correction code (that is, 8 Bits of Header + 48 Bits of Data (4 Conv.) + 8 Bits of ECC = 64 Bits). The 12-bit protocol is shown in Figure 2 and Table 5. Error Correction Code The error correction code (ECC) is a Hamming code due to the ease of implementation. Seven bits are used for the ECC to correct one error or detect one or two errors during transmission. The MSB of the ECC is always 0 and is not used to detect an error. The six LSBs of the ECC are the result of the XORs of the given bits (see Figure 68 to Figure 75). These bits allow for a parity check for any bit in the header and data field. The seventh parity bit is applied to the entire packet after the Hamming parity bits are calculated. This parity check allows correction of an error in the data or in the ECC bits. In the general implementation, the parity bits are located in the power of 2 positions, but are pulled from these locations and placed together at the end of the packet. Figure 68 to Figure 75 show which header and data bits are associated with the parity bits. In the receiver, these parity checks are performed and the receiver parity bits are calculated. The difference between the received parity bits and the calculated parity bits indicate which bit was in error. Table 12.

Rev. E | Page 25 of 40 AD9239 Data Sheet Scramblers is balanced based on an overranged condition. If each packet is balanced, the bit stream should be balanced. Instead of a random sequence that changes from packet to packet, certain inverts are set at predetermined bit positions within the packet. This allows the decoding to be done in the receiver end. Figure 67 shows the inverters in the packet for the 12-bit data case and the inverter order in the header. There are three scramblers on the AD9239. The scramblers are an Ethernet scrambler (x58 + x39 + 1), a SONET scrambler (x7 + x6 + 1), and a static inverter scrambler (inverts bits at set locations in the packet). The scramblers are used to help balance the number of 1s and 0s in the packet. The Ethernet and SONET scramblers work on scrambling the whole packet (64 bits), the header and the data (56 bits), or just the data (48 bits). The scrambler is self-synchronizing on the descramble end or receive end and does not require an additional sync bit. For a copy of either the Ethernet or SONET scrambler code, send an email to [email protected]. Figure 65 and Figure 66 show the serial implementation of the Ethernet and SONET scramblers. The parallel implementation allows the scrambler and descrambler to run at a slower clock rate and can be implemented in the fabric of a receiver. The serial implementations of the Ethernet and SONET scramblers more easily show what is being done. The parallel implementation must be derived from the serial implementation. The end product depends on how many bits need to be processed in parallel. For the scrambler, 64 bits are processed even in the 56- and 48-bit cases. To achieve this for 56 bits and 48 bits, a portion of two samples is used to fill the rest of the input word. Inverter Balance Example The inverter implementation uses predetermined bit positions to balance the packet in an overrange condition (all 1s or all 0s) in the converter. The inversions are present in all conditions, not just the overrange condition. Table 13 shows the average value of the packet for various conditions. Table 13. Average of 1s and 0s in Overrange Conditions Assuming Header Bits are All 0 No Scramble (Data = 0) No Scramble (Data = 1) Average of Negative and Positive Overrange Scramble Only Data (Data = 0) Scramble Only Data (Data = 1) Average of Negative and Positive Overrange Scramble Data and Header (Data = 0) Scramble Data and Header (Data = 1) Average of Negative and Positive Overrange 12-Bit 0 0.844 0.422 ECC 00000000 00111111 0.375 0.469 0.422 00000000 00111111 0.437 0.531 0.484 00000000 00111111 If the analog signal is out of range, there should be about the same number of out-of-range positive and out-of-range negative values. The average for no scrambling and for scrambling just the data is about the same. If the header is used to indicate out of range, the balance improves for the 12-bit case. The descrambler can be based off any number of bits the user chooses to process. In the inverter-based scrambler, the packet Rev.

E | Page 29 of 40 06980-103 p6 AD9239 Data Sheet TEMPOUT Pin The TEMPOUT pin can be used as a course temperature sensor to monitor the internal die temperature of the device. This pin typical has a 734 mV output with a clock rate of 250 MSPS and a negative temperature going coefficient of −1.12 mV/C. The voltage response of this pin is characterized in Figure 76. SDO Pin 0.79 The SDO pin is for use in applications that require a 4-wire SPI mode operation. For normal operation, it should be tied low to AGND through a 10 kΩ resistor. Alternatively, the device pin can be left open, and the 345 Ω internal pull-down resistor pulls this pin low.

Alternatively, the device pin can be left open, and the 30 kΩ internal pull-down resistor pulls this pin low. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant. Figure 76. TEMPOUT Pin Voltage vs. Temperature RBIAS Pin To set the internal core bias current of the ADC, place a resistor (nominally equal to 10.0 kΩ) between ground and the RBIAS pin. The resistor current is derived on chip and sets the AVDD current of the ADC to a nominal 725 mA at 250 MSPS. Therefore, it is imperative that a 1% or less tolerance on this resistor be used to achieve consistent performance. VCMx Pins The common-mode output pins can be enabled through the SPI to provide an external reference bias voltage of 1.4 V for driving the VIN + x/VIN − x analog inputs. These pins may be required when connecting external devices, such as an amplifier or transformer, to interface to the analog inputs. RESET Pin The RESET pin sets all SPI registers to their default values and the datapath. Using this pin requires the user to resync the digital outputs. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant. PDWN Pin When asserted high, the PDWN pin turns off all the ADC channels, including the output drivers. This function can be changed to a standby function. See Register 8 in Table 16. Using this feature allows the user to put all channels into standby mode. The output drivers transmit pseudorandom data until the outputs are disabled using Register 14. By asserting the PDWN pin high, the AD9239 is placed into power-down mode, shutting down the reference, reference buffer, PLL, and biasing networks. In this state, the ADC typically dissipates 3 mW. If any of the SPI features are changed before CSB Pin For normal operation, the CSB pin should be tied high to AVDD through a 10 kΩ resistor. Alternatively, the device pin can be left open, and the 26 kΩ internal pull-up resistor pulls this pin high. By tying the CSB pin to AVDD, all SCLK and SDI/SDIO information is ignored. In comparison, by tying the CSB pin low, all information on the SDO and SDI/SDIO pins are written to the device. This feature allows the user to reduce the number of traces to the device if necessary. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant. PGMx Pins All PGMx pins are automatically initialized as a sync pin by default. These pins are used to lock the FPGA timing and data capture during initial startup. These pins are respective to each channel (PGM3 = Channel A). The sync pin should be pulled low until this pin receives a high signal input from the receiver, during which time the ADC outputs a training word. The training word defaults to the values implemented by the user in Register 19 through Register 20. When the receiver finds the frame boundary, the sync identification is deasserted high and the ADC outputs the valid data on the next packet boundary. Once steady state operation for the device has occurred, these pins can be assigned as a standby option using Register 53 in Table 16. All other pins change to a global sync pin. This pin is only 1.8 V tolerant. Rev. E | Page 30 of 40 Data Sheet AD9239 SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI) The AD9239 serial port interface allows the user to configure the converter for specific functions or operations through a structured register space provided in the ADC. This may provide the user with additional 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 can be further divided into fields, as documented in the Memory Map section. Detailed operational information can be found in the Analog Devices, Inc., AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. Four pins define the SPI: SCLK, SDI/SDIO, SDO, and CSB (see Table 14). The SCLK pin is used to synchronize the read and write data presented to the ADC. The SDI/SDIO pin is a dualpurpose pin that allows data to be sent to 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 14. Serial Port Pins Pin SCLK SDI/SDIO SDO CSB Function Serial Clock. The serial shift clock input. SCLK is used to synchronize serial interface reads and writes. Serial Data Input/Output. A dual-purpose pin that typically serves as an input or output, depending on the SPI wire mode and instruction sent and the relative position in the timing frame. Serial Data Output is used only in 4-wire SPI mode. When set, the SDO pin becomes active. When cleared, the SDO pin remains in tristate, and all read data is routed to the SDI/SDIO pin. Chip Select Bar (Active Low). This control gates the read and write cycles. The falling edge of the CSB in conjunction with the rising edge of the SCLK determines the start of the framing sequence. During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted, followed by one or more data bytes, which is determined by Bit Field W0 and Bit Field W1. An example of the serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 78 and Table 15. During normal operation, CSB is used to signal to the device that SPI commands are to be received and processed. When CSB is brought low, the device processes SCLK and SDI/SDIO to execute instructions. Normally, CSB remains low until the communication cycle is complete. However, if connected to a slow device, CSB can be brought high between bytes, allowing older microcontrollers enough time to transfer data into shift registers. CSB can be stalled when transferring one, two, or three bytes of data. When W0 and W1 are set to 11, the device enters streaming mode and continues to process data, either reading or writing, until CSB is taken high to end the communication cycle. This allows complete memory transfers without requiring additional instructions. Regardless of the mode, if CSB is taken high in the middle of a byte transfer, the SPI state machine is reset and the device waits for a new instruction. In addition to the operation modes, the SPI port configuration influences how the AD9239 operates. For applications that do not require a control port, the CSB line can be tied and held high. This places the SDI/SDIO pin into its secondary mode, as defined in the SDI/SDIO Pin section. CSB can also be tied low to enable 2-wire mode. When CSB is tied low, SCLK and SDI/SDIO are the only pins required for communication. Although the device is synchronized during power-up, the user should ensure that the serial port remains synchronized with the CSB line when using this mode. When operating in 2-wire mode, it is recommended to use a 1-, 2-, or 3-byte transfer exclusively. Without an active CSB line, streaming mode can be entered but not exited. 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 and read the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback operation, performing a readback causes the SDI/SDIO pin to change from an input to an output at the appropriate point in the serial frame. Data can be sent in MSB- or LSB-first mode. MSB-first mode is the default at power-up and can be changed by adjusting the configuration register. For more information about this and other features, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. HARDWARE INTERFACE The pins described in Table 14 constitute the physical interface between the user’s programming device and the serial port of the AD9239. The SDO, SCLK and CSB pins function as inputs when using the SPI. The SDI/SDIO pin is bidirectional, functioning as an input during write phases and as an output during readback. If multiple SDI/SDIO pins share a common connection, care should be taken to ensure that proper VOH levels are met. Assuming the same load for each AD9239, Figure 77 shows the number of SDI/SDIO pins that can be connected together and the resulting VOH level. This interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either serial PROMS or PIC mirocontrollers, providing the user with an alternative method, other than a full SPI controller, to program the ADC (see the AN-812 Application Note). For users who wish to operate the ADC without using the SPI, remove any connections from the CSB, SCLK, SDO, and SDI/SDIO pins. By disconnecting these pins from the control bus, the ADC can function in its most basic operation. Each of these pins has an internal termination that floats to its respective level. Rev.

E | Page 32 of 40 06980-028 SCLK Data Sheet AD9239 MEMORY MAP READING THE MEMORY MAP TABLE RESERVED LOCATIONS Each row in the memory map register table (Table 16) has eight bit locations. The memory map is divided into three sections: the chip configuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02), the device index and transfer registers (Address 0x05 and Address 0xFF), and the ADC functions registers (Address 0x08 to Address 0x53). Undefined memory locations should not be written to except when writing the default values suggested in this data sheet. Addresses that have values marked as 0 should be considered reserved and have a 0 written into their registers during power-up. The leftmost column of the memory map indicates the register address number, and the default value is shown in the second rightmost column. The Bit 7 column is the start of the default hexadecimal value given. For example, Address 0x09, the clock register, has a default value of 0x01, meaning that Bit 7 = 0, Bit 6 = 0, Bit 5 = 0, Bit 4 = 0, Bit 3 = 0, Bit 2 = 0, Bit 1 = 0, and Bit 0 = 1, or 0000 0001 in binary. This setting is the default for the duty cycle stabilizer in the on condition. By writing a 0 to Bit 0 of this address, followed by a 0x01 in Register 0xFF (transfer bit), the duty cycle stabilizer turns off. It is important to follow each writing sequence with a transfer bit to update the SPI registers. For more information on this and other functions, consult the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. DEFAULT VALUES When the AD9239 comes out of a reset, critical registers are preloaded with default values. These values are indicated in Table 16, where an X refers to an undefined feature. LOGIC LEVELS An explanation of various registers follows: “bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or “writing Logic 1 for the bit.” Similarly, “clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or “writing Logic 0 for the bit.” Rev.

Data Sheet AD9239 Power and Ground Recommendations Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations When connecting power to the AD9239, it is recommended that two separate 1.8 V supplies be used: one for analog (AVDD) and one for digital (DRVDD). If only one supply is available, it should be routed to the AVDD first and then tapped off and isolated with a ferrite bead or a filter choke preceded by decoupling capacitors for the DRVDD. The user can employ several different decoupling capacitors to cover both high and low frequencies. These should be located close to the point of entry at the printed circuit board (PCB) level and close to the parts, with minimal trace lengths. It is required that the exposed paddle on the underside of the ADC is connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the best electrical and thermal performance of the AD9239. An exposed continuous copper plane on the PCB should mate to the AD9239 exposed paddle, Pin 0. The copper plane should have several vias to achieve the lowest possible resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to flow through the bottom of the PCB. These vias should be solder-filled or plugged with nonconductive epoxy. A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the AD9239. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the analog, digital, and clock sections of the PCB, optimum performance can easily be achieved. To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and PCB, partition the continuous copper plane by overlaying a silkscreen on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie points between the ADC and PCB during the reflow process, whereas using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees only one tie point. See Figure 79 for a PCB layout example.
