CSB Rev. 0 | Page 12 of 24 AD9284 THEORY OF OPERATION Differential Input Configurations Optimum performance is achieved when driving the AD9284 in a differential input configuration. For baseband applications, the ADA4937-1 differential driver provides excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC (see Figure 19). The output common-mode voltage of the AD9284 is easily set to 1.4 V, and the driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to provide band limiting of the input signal. 200Ω 1.2V p-p 61.9Ω ADC ARCHITECTURE 200Ω 33Ω – AD9284 4.7pF ADA4937-1 Each channel of the AD9284 consists of a differential input buffer followed by a sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA). The SHA is followed by a pipeline switched-capacitor ADC. The quantized outputs from each stage are combined into a final 8-bit result in the digital correction logic. The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate on a new input sample, whereas the remaining stages operate on preceding samples. 227.4Ω 0.1µF + + VIN – 33Ω 200Ω 09085-025 The AD9284 is a pipeline-type converter. The input buffers are differential, and both sets of inputs are internally biased. This allows the use of ac or dc input modes. A sample-and-hold amplifier is incorporated into the first stage of the multistage pipeline converter core. The output staging block aligns the data, carries out error correction for the pipeline stages, and feeds that data to the output buffers. The two ADC channels are sampled simultaneously through a single encoding clock. All user-selected options are programmed through dedicated digital input pins or a serial port interface (SPI). VCM Figure 19. Differential Input Configuration Using the ADA4937-1 The input stage contains a differential SHA that can be ac- or dc-coupled in differential or single-ended mode. The output staging block aligns the data, carries out error correction, and passes the data to the output buffers. The output buffers are powered from a separate supply, allowing adjustment of the output voltage swing. During power-down, the output buffers enter a high impedance state. ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS The analog inputs of the AD9284 are differentially buffered. For best dynamic performance, the source impedances driving VIN+A, VIN+B, VIN−A, and VIN−B should be matched such that common-mode settling errors are symmetrical. The analog inputs are optimized to provide superior wideband performance and must be driven differentially. SNR and SINAD performance degrades significantly if the analog inputs are driven with a singleended signal. A wideband transformer, such as Mini-Circuits® ADT1-1WT, can provide the differential analog inputs for applications that require a single-ended-to-differential conversion. Both analog inputs are self-biased by an on-chip resistor divider to a nominal 1.4 V. 33Ω 1.2V p-p AD9284 49.9Ω 4.7pF + – VIN 33Ω VCM 0.1µF 09085-026 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 (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 consists of a flash ADC. The AD9284 can also be driven passively with a differential transformer-coupled input (see Figure 20). To bias the analog input, the VCM voltage can be connected to the center tap of the secondary winding of the transformer. Figure 20. Differential Transformer-Coupled Configuration The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies below a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can also cause core saturation, which leads to distortion. VOLTAGE REFERENCE An internal differential voltage reference creates positive and negative reference voltages that define the 1.2 V p-p fixed span of the ADC core. This internal voltage reference can be adjusted by means of SPI control. It can also be driven externally with an off-chip stable reference. See the Memory Map Register Descriptions section for more details. RBIAS The AD9284 requires the user to place a 10 kΩ resistor between the RBIAS pin and ground. This resistor, which is used to set the master current reference of the ADC core, should have a 1% tolerance. Rev. 0 | Page 13 of 24 AD9284 For optimum performance, clock the AD9284 sample clock inputs, CLK+ and CLK− with a differential signal. The signal is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins via a transformer or capacitors. If a low jitter clock source is not available, another option is to ac couple a differential PECL signal to the sample clock input pins, as shown in Figure 23. The AD9510/AD9511/AD9512/ AD9513/AD9514/AD9515/AD9516/AD9517 clock drivers offer excellent jitter performance. Clock Input Options The AD9284 has a very flexible clock input structure. The clock input can be an LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal. Each configuration that is described in this section applies to CLK+ and CLK−. Figure 21 and Figure 22 show the two preferred methods for clocking the AD9284. A low jitter clock source is converted from a single-ended signal to a differential signal using either an RF transformer or an RF balun. The back-to-back Schottky diodes across the transformer/balun secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9284 to approximately 0.8 V p-p differential. 50Ω CLOCK INPUT 50kΩ ADC CLK– 50kΩ 240Ω 240Ω 0.1µF 0.1µF CLK+ AD951x ADC 0.1µF LVDS DRIVER 100Ω 0.1µF ADC CLK– 50kΩ Figure 24.

When OE is set to logic level high, the output drivers for both data buses are placed into a high impedance state. 1nF CLK+ 50Ω 100Ω 0.1µF PECL DRIVER 0.1µF ADC 1nF 0.1µF SCHOTTKY DIODES: HSM2822 09085-028 CLK– Figure 22.

A built-in self-test (BIST) feature that verifies the integrity of the digital datapath of the AD9284 is included. Various output test options are also provided to place predictable values on the outputs of the AD9284. BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected AD9284 signal path. Perform the BIST test after a reset to ensure that the part is in a known state. During BIST, data from an internal pseudorandom noise (PN) source is driven through the digital datapath of both channels, starting at the ADC block output. At the datapath output, CRC logic calculates a signature from the data. The BIST sequence runs for 512 cycles and then stops. When the test is completed, the BIST compares the signature results with a predetermined value. If the signatures match, the BIST sets Bit 0 of Register 0x0E, signifying that the test passed. If the BIST test fails, Bit 0 of Register 0x0E is cleared. The outputs are connected during this test, so the PN sequence can be observed as it runs. Writing a value of 0x05 to Register 0x0E runs the BIST. This enables Bit 0 (BIST enable) of Register 0x0E and resets the PN sequence generator, Bit 2 (BIST init) of Register 0x0E. At the completion of the BIST, Bit 0 of Register 0x0E is automatically cleared. The PN sequence can be continued from its last value by writing a 0 to Bit 2 of Register 0x0E. However, if the PN sequence is not reset, the signature calculation does not equal the predetermined value at the end of the test. At that point, the user must rely on verifying the output data. OUTPUT TEST MODES The output test options are described in Table 12 at Address 0x0D. When an output test mode is enabled, the analog section of the ADC is disconnected from the digital back-end blocks, and the test pattern is run through the output formatting block. Some test patterns are subject to output formatting, and some are not. The PN generators from the PN sequence tests can be reset by setting Bit 4 or Bit 5 of Register 0x0D. These tests can be performed with or without an analog signal (if present, the analog signal is ignored), but they do require an encode clock.

Rev. 0 | Page 15 of 24 AD9284 SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI) The AD9284 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. The SPI gives 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 can be further divided into fields, which are documented in the Memory Map section. For detailed operational 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. An example of the serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 25. Other modes involving CSB are available. The CSB pin can be held low indefinitely, which permanently enables the device; this is called streaming. CSB can stall high between bytes to allow for additional external timing. When the CSB pin is tied high, SPI functions are placed in high impedance mode. This mode turns on any SPI pin secondary functions. During the instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted. Data follows the instruction phase, and its length is determined by the W0 and W1 bits, as shown in Figure 25. CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: SCLK, SDIO, and CSB (see Table 9). SCLK (a serial clock) is used to synchronize the read and write data presented from and to the ADC. SDIO (serial data input/output) is a dual-purpose pin that allows data to be sent to and read from the internal ADC memory map registers. CSB (chip select bar) is an active low control that enables or disables the read and write cycles. All data is composed of 8-bit words. The first bit of the first byte in a multibyte serial data transfer frame indicates whether a read command or a write command is issued. This allows the serial data input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an output at the appropriate point in the serial frame. In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to read the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback operation, the serial data input/output (SDIO) pin changes direction, from an input to an output, at the appropriate point in the serial frame. Table 9. Serial Port Interface Pins Pin SCLK SDIO CSB Function Serial clock. A serial shift clock input that is used to synchronize serial interface reads and writes. Serial data input/output. A dual-purpose pin that typically serves as an input or an output, depending on the instruction being sent and the relative position in the timing frame. Chip select bar.

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. In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers, the SDIO/PWDN pin serves as a standalone, CMOS-compatible control pin. When the device is powered up, it is assumed that the user intends to use the SDIO, SCLK, and CSB pins as static control lines for the output enable and power-down feature control. In this mode, connecting the CSB chip select to AVDD disables the serial port interface. The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI configuration is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note, Microcontroller-Based Serial Port Interface (SPI) Boot Circuit. The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the AD9284 to prevent these signals from transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods. SDIO/PWDN serves a dual function when the SPI interface is not being used. When the pin is strapped to AVDD or ground during device power-on, it is associated with a specific function. The mode selection table (see Table 10) describes the strappable functions that are supported on the AD9284. Table 10.

These features are described in detail in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. The AD9284 part-specific features are described in detail in Table 12. Table 11.

The memory map is roughly 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 program registers (Address 0x08 to Address 0x25). An explanation of logic level terminology follows: Table 12 documents the default hexadecimal value for each hexadecimal address shown. The column with the heading Bit 7 (MSB) is the start of the default hexadecimal value given. For more information on this function and others, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This document details the functions controlled by Register 0x00 to Register 0xFF. • • “Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or “writing Logic 1 for the bit.” “Bit is cleared” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or “writing Logic 0 for the bit.” Transfer Register Map Address 0x08 to Address 0x38 are shadowed. Writes to these addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer command is issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the transfer bit. Setting the transfer bit allows these registers to be updated internally and simultaneously. The internal update takes place when the transfer bit is set, and then the bit autoclears. Open Locations Channel-Specific Registers All address and bit locations that are not included in the SPI map are not currently supported for this device. Unused bits of a valid address location should be written with 0s. Writing to these locations is required only when part of an address location is open. If the entire address location is open, it is omitted from the SPI map (for example, Address 0x13) and should not be written. Some channel setup functions can be programmed differently for each channel. In these cases, channel address locations are internally duplicated for each channel. These registers and bits are designated in the memory map register table as local. These local registers and bits can be accessed by setting the appropriate Channel A (Bit 0) or Channel B (Bit 1) bits in Register 0x05. Default Values If both bits are set, the subsequent write affects the registers of both channels. In a read cycle, set only Channel A or Channel B to read one of the two registers. If both bits are set during a SPI read cycle, the part returns the value for Channel A. Registers and bits designated as global in the memory map register table affect the entire part or the channel features for which independent settings are not allowed between channels. The settings in Register 0x05 do not affect the global registers and bits. After the AD9284 is reset, critical registers are loaded with default values. The default values for the registers are given in the memory map register table (see Table 12).

Power and Ground Recommendations When connecting power to the AD9284, it is strongly recommended that two separate supplies be used. Use one 1.8 V supply for analog (AVDD); use a separate 1.8 V supply for the digital output supply (DRVDD). If a common 1.8 V AVDD and DRVDD supply must be used, the AVDD and DRVDD domains must be isolated with a ferrite bead or filter choke and separate decoupling capacitors. Several different decoupling capacitors can be used to cover both high and low frequencies. Locate these capacitors close to the point of entry at the printed circuit board (PCB) level and close to the pins of the part, with minimal trace length. A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the AD9284. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance is easily achieved. Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Sink Recommendations The exposed paddle (Pin 0) is the only ground connection for the AD9284; therefore, it must be connected to analog ground (AGND) on the customer PCB. To achieve the best electrical and thermal performance, mate an exposed (no solder mask), continuous copper plane on the PCB to the AD9284 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. Fill or plug these vias with nonconductive epoxy. To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and the PCB, a silkscreen should be overlaid to partition the continuous plane on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow process. Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees only one tie point between the ADC and the PCB. For detailed information about packaging and PCB layout of chip scale packages, see the AN-772 Application Note, A Design and Manufacturing Guide for the Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP), at www.analog.com. VCM The VCM pin should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor. RBIAS The AD9284 requires that a 10 kΩ resistor be placed between the RBIAS pin and ground. This resistor, which sets the master current reference of the ADC core, should have at least a 1% tolerance. Reference Decoupling Decouple the VREF pin externally to ground with a low ESR, 1.0 μF capacitor in parallel with a low ESR, 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor. SPI Port The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the AD9284 to prevent these signals from transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.
