The AD9481 is available in a Pb-free, 44-lead, surface-mount package (TQFP-44) specified over the industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). The AD9481 is an 8-bit, monolithic analog-to-digital converter (ADC) optimized for high speed and low power consumption. Small in size and easy to use, the product operates at a 250 MSPS conversion rate, with excellent linearity and dynamic performance over its full operating range. PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS To minimize system cost and power dissipation, the AD9481 includes an internal reference and track-and-hold circuit. The user only provides a 3.3 V power supply and a differential encode clock. No external reference or driver components are required for many applications. 2. Power-down mode. A power-down function may be exercised to bring total consumption down to 15 mW. The digital outputs are TTL/CMOS-compatible with an option of twos complement or binary output format. The output data bits are provided in an interleaved fashion along with output clocks that simplifies data capture. 1. Superior linearity. A DNL of ±0.35 makes the AD9481 suitable for many instrumentation and measurement applications 3. De-multiplexed CMOS outputs allow for easy interfacing with low cost FPGAs and standard logic.

Full-Scale Input Power Expressed in dBm. Computed using the following equation ⎛ V 2 FULLSCALE rms ⎜ Z INPUT ⎜ PowerFULLSCALE = 10 log ⎜ 0.001 ⎜ ⎜ ⎝ Aperture Delay The delay between the 50% point of the rising edge of the encode command and the instant the analog input is sampled. Gain Error Gain error is the difference between the measured and ideal full-scale input voltage range of the ADC. Aperture Uncertainty (Jitter) The sample-to-sample variation in aperture delay. Clock Pulse-Width/Duty Cycle Pulse-width high is the minimum amount of time that the clock pulse should be left in a Logic 1 state to achieve rated performance; pulse-width low is the minimum time clock pulse should be left in a low state. See timing implications of changing tEH in the Clocking the AD9481 section. At a given clock rate, these specifications define an acceptable clock duty cycle. Crosstalk Coupling onto one channel being driven by a low level (−40 dBFS) signal when the adjacent interfering channel is driven by a full-scale signal. Harmonic Distortion, Second The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the second harmonic component, reported in dBc. Harmonic Distortion, Third The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the third harmonic component, reported in dBc. Integral Nonlinearity The deviation of the transfer function from a reference line measured in fractions of 1 LSB using a best straight line determined by a least square curve fit. Differential Analog Input Resistance, Differential Analog Input Capacitance, and Differential Analog Input Impedance The real and complex impedances measured at each analog input port. The resistance is measured statically and the capacitance and differential input impedances are measured with a network analyzer. Differential Analog Input Voltage Range The peak-to-peak differential voltage that must be applied to the converter to generate a full-scale response. Peak differential voltage is computed by observing the voltage on a single pin and subtracting the voltage from the other pin, which is 180° out of phase. Peak-to-peak differential is computed by rotating the inputs phase 180° and taking the peak measurement again. The difference is then computed between both peak measurements. Minimum Conversion Rate The encode rate at which the SNR of the lowest analog signal frequency drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit. Maximum Conversion Rate The encode rate at which parametric testing is performed. Output Propagation Delay The delay between a differential crossing of CLK+ and CLK− and the time when all output data bits are within valid logic levels. Noise (for Any Range within the ADC) This value includes both thermal and quantization noise. − SNRdBc − SignaldBFS ⎛ FS Vnoise = Z × 0 .001 × 10 ⎜⎜ dBm 10 ⎝ Differential Nonlinearity The deviation of any code width from an ideal 1 LSB step.

FS is the full scale of the device for the frequency in question. SNR is the value for the particular input level. Signal is the signal level within the ADC reported in dB below full scale. Rev. 0 | Page 10 of 28 AD9481 Power Supply Rejection Ratio The ratio of a change in input offset voltage to a change in power supply voltage. Signal-to-Noise and Distortion (SINAD) The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set 1 dB below full scale) to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components, including harmonics, but excluding dc. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (without Harmonics) The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set at 1 dB below full scale) to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components, excluding the first five harmonics and dc. Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the peak spurious spectral component. The peak spurious component may or may not be a harmonic. It also may be reported in dBc (degrades as signal level is lowered) or dBFS (always related back to converter full scale). Two-Tone Intermodulation Distortion Rejection The ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value of the worst third-order intermodulation product, in dBc. Two-Tone SFDR 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. It also may be reported in dBc (degrades as signal level is lowered) or in dBFS (always relates back to converter full scale). Worst Other Spur The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the worst spurious component (excluding the second and third harmonic), reported in dBc. Transient Response Time The time it takes for the ADC to reacquire the analog input after a transient from 10% above negative full scale to 10% below positive full scale. Out-of-Range Recovery Time This is the time it takes for the ADC to reacquire the analog input after a transient from 10% above positive full scale to 10% above negative full scale, or from 10% below negative full scale to 10% below positive full scale.

S1 Input Rev. 0 | Page 16 of 28 AD9481 APPLICATIONS The AD9481 uses a 1.5 bit per stage architecture. The analog inputs drive an integrated high bandwidth track-and-hold circuit that samples the signal prior to quantization by the 8-bit core. For ease of use, the part includes an on-board reference and input logic that accepts TTL, CMOS, or LVPECL levels. The digital output logic levels are CMOS-compatible. 49.9Ω 499Ω A wideband transformer, such as the Mini-Circuits ADT1-1WT, can provide the differential analog inputs for applications that require a single-ended-to-differential conversion. Note that the filter and center-tap capacitor on the secondary side is optional and dependent on application requirements. An RC filter at the secondary side helps reduce any wideband noise getting aliased by the ADC. AD8138 20pF AD9481 33Ω VIN– 523Ω AGND 499Ω 05045-030 2kΩ Figure 29. Driving the ADC with the AD8138 The AD9481 can be easily configured for different full-scale ranges. See the Voltage Reference section for more information.

SENSE = GND VIN+ 500mV 2.0V 2.0V VIN– DIGITALOUT = ALL 1s DIGITALOUT = ALL 0s 05045-031 The analog input to the AD9481 is a differential buffer. For best dynamic performance, impedances at VIN+ and VIN− should match. Optimal performance is obtained when the analog inputs are driven differentially. SNR and SINAD performance can degrade if the analog input is driven with a single-ended signal. The analog inputs self-bias to approximately 1.9 V; this common-mode voltage can be externally overdriven by approximately ±300 mV if required.

Driving the ADC with an RF Transformer For dc-coupled applications, the AD8138/AD8139 or AD8351 can serve as a convenient ADC driver, depending on requirements. Figure 29 shows an example with the AD8138. The AD9481 PCB has an optional AD8351 on board, as shown in Figure 39 and Figure 40. The AD8351 typically yields better performance for frequencies greater than 30 MHz to 40 MHz. The AD9481’s linearity and SFDR start to degrade at higher analog frequencies (see the Typical Performance Characteristics section). For higher frequency applications, the AD9480 with LVDS outputs and superior AC performance should be considered. A stable and accurate 1.0 V reference is built into the AD9481. Users can choose this internal reference or provide an external reference for greater accuracy and flexibility. Figure 32 shows the typical reference variation with temperature.

Internal Reference Equivalent Circuit Rev. 0 | Page 17 of 28 AD9481 Fixed Reference The internal reference can be configured for a differential span of 1 V p-p (see Figure 34). It is recommended to place a 0.1 µF capacitor as close as possible to the VREF pin; a 10 µF capacitor is also required (see the PCB layout for guidance). If the internal reference of the AD9481 is used to drive multiple converters to improve gain matching, the loading of the reference by the other converters must be considered.

The gain of the AD9481 can also be varied using this configuration. A voltage output DAC can be used to set VREF, providing for a means to digitally adjust the full-scale voltage. VREF can be externally set to voltages from 0.75 V to 1.5 V; optimum performance is typically obtained at VREF = 1 V. (See the Typical Performance Characteristics section.) The clock inputs are internally biased to 1.5 V (nominal) and support either differential or single-ended signals. For best dynamic performance, a differential signal is recommended. An MC100LVEL16 performs well in the circuit to drive the clock inputs (ac coupling is optional). If the clock buffer is greater than two inches from the ADC, a standard LVPECL termination may be required instead of the simple pull-down termination shown in Figure 37.

The SENSE pin self-biases to 0.5 V, and the resulting VREF is equal to 0.5 × (1 + R1/R2).

Clocking the AD9481 DS INPUTS The data sync inputs (DS+, DS−) can be used in applications which require that a given sample appear at a specific output port (A or B) relative to a given external timing signal. The DS inputs can also be used to synchronize two or more ADCs in a system to maintain phasing between Ports A and B on separate ADCs (in effect, synchronizing multiple DCO outputs). VREF 10µF AD9481 CLK+ AVDD 05045-028 MAY REQUIRE RC FILTER EXTERNAL REFERENCE OR DAC INPUT change dynamically, requiring a wait time of 5 µs after a dynamic clock frequency increase before valid data is available. The clock duty cycle stabilizer can be disabled at Pin 28 (S1). Figure 36. Programmable Reference CLOCKING THE AD9481 Any high speed ADC is extremely sensitive to the quality of the sampling clock provided by the user. A track-and-hold circuit is essentially a mixer, and any noise, distortion, or timing jitter on the clock is combined with the desired signal at the A/D output. Considerable care has been taken in the design of the CLOCK input of the AD9481, and the user is advised to give commensurate thought to the clock source. The AD9481 has an internal clock duty cycle stabilization circuit that locks to the rising edge of CLOCK and optimizes timing internally for sample rates between 100 MSPS and 250 MSPS. This allows for a wide range of input duty cycles at the input without degrading performance. Jitter on the rising edge of the input is still of paramount concern and is not reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The duty cycle control loop does not function for clock rates less than 70 MHz nominally. The loop has a time constant associated with it that needs to be considered in applications where the clock rate can The DS inputs are internally biased to 1.5 V (nominal) and support either differential or single-ended signals. When DS+ is held high (DS− low), the ADC data outputs and DCO outputs do not switch and are held static. Synchronization is accomplished by the assertion (falling edge) of DS+ within the timing constraints tSDS and tHDS, relative to a clock rising edge. (On initial synchronization, tHDS is not relevant.) If DS+ falls within the required setup time (tSDS) before a given clock rising edge N, the analog value at that point in time is digitized and available at Port A, eight cycles later in interleaved mode. The next sample, N + 1, is sampled by the next rising clock edge and available at Port B, eight cycles after that clock edge. Driving each ADC’s DS inputs by the same sync signal accomplishes synchronization between multiple ADCs. In applications which require synchronization, one-shot synchronization is recommended. An easy way to accomplish synchronization is by a one-time sync at power-on reset. Rev. 0 | Page 19 of 28 AD9481 Table 9.

The outputs are biased from a separate supply (DRVDD), allowing easy interface to external logic. The outputs are CMOS devices that swing from ground to DRVDD (with no dc load). It is recommended to minimize the capacitive load the ADC drives by keeping the output traces short (< 2 inch, for a total CLOAD < 5 pF). When operating in CMOS mode, it is also recommended to place low value series damping resistors on the data lines close to the ADC to reduce switching transient effects on performance. Table 10.

In these applications, it is important to match the gain and offset of the two ADCs. Varying the reference voltage allows the gain of the ADCs to be adjusted; external dc offset compensation can be used to reduce offset mismatch between two ADCs. The sampling phase offset between the two ADCs is extremely important as well and requires very low skew between clock signals driving the ADCs (< 2 ps clock skew for a 100 MHz analog input frequency). DATA CLOCK OUT A data clock is available at DCO+ and DCO−. These clocks can facilitate latching off-chip, providing a low skew clocking solution. The on-chip delay of the DCO clocks tracks with the on-chip delay of the data bits, (under similar loading) such that the variation between tPD and tCPD is minimized. It is recommended to keep the trace lengths on the data and DCO pins matched and 2 inches maximum. A series damping resistor at the clock outputs is also recommended. The DCO outputs can be disabled and placed in a high impedance state by tying S3 to ground (tie to AVDD for DCO active). Switching both into and out of high impedance is accomplished in 4 ns from S3 switching. POWER-DOWN INPUT The ADC can be placed into a low power state by setting the PDWN pin to AVDD. Time to go into (or come out of) power down equals 30 ns typically from PDWN switching. Rev. 0 | Page 20 of 28 AD9481 AD9481 EVALUATION BOARD The AD9481 evaluation board offers an easy way to test the device. It requires a clock source, an analog input signal, and a 3.3 V power supply. The clock source is buffered on the board to provide the clocks for the ADC and a data-ready signal. The digital outputs and output clocks are available at an 80-pin output connector, P3, P23. (Note that P3, P23 are represented schematically as two 40-pin connectors, and this connector is implemented as one 80-pin connector on the PCB.) The board has several different modes of operation and is shipped in the following configuration: • Offset binary • Internal voltage reference ANALOG INPUTS The evaluation board accepts a 700 mV p-p analog input signal centered at ground at SMB Connector J3. This signal is terminated to ground through 50 Ω by R22. The input can be alternatively terminated at the T1 transformer secondary by R21 and R28. T1 is a wideband RF transformer that provides the single-ended-to-differential conversion, allowing the ADC to be driven differentially, minimizing even-order harmonics. An optional transformer, T4, can be placed if desired (remove T1, as shown in Figure 39 and Figure 40). The analog signal can be low-pass filtered by R21, C8 and R28, C9 at the ADC input. GAIN POWER CONNECTOR Power is supplied to the board via two detachable 4-pin power strips. Table 11. Power Connector Full scale is set by the sense jumper. This jumper applies a bias to the SENSE pin to vary the full-scale range; the default position is SENSE = ground, setting the full scale to 1 V p-p.

The input is ac-coupled to a high speed differential receiver (LVEL16) that provides the required low jitter, fast edge rates needed for best performance. J1 input should be > 0.5 V p-p. Power to the LVEL16 is set to VCTRL (default) or AVDD by jumper placement at the device. OPTIONAL CLOCK BUFFER The PCB has been designed to accommodate the SNLVDS1 line driver.

Populate R48 and R49 with 0 Ω resistors. Place R50, R51, R59, and R60 with 1 kΩ resistors. Remove C6 and C5. If the Vectron VCC6 family crystal is being used, populate R57 with a 10 Ω resistor. If using the XO-400 crystal, place jumper E21 or E22 to E23. VOLTAGE REFERENCE The AD9481 has an internal 1 V reference mode. The ADC uses the internal 1 V reference as the default when sense is set to ground. An optional on-board external 1.0 V reference (ADR510) can be used by setting the sense jumper to AVDD, by placing a jumper on E5 to E3, and by placing a 0 Ω resistor on R55. When using an external programmable reference, (R20, R30) remove the sense jumper.
