8-Bit, 2.2Gsps ADC with Track/Hold Amplifier
and 1:4 Demultiplexed LVDS Outputs
The MAX109, 2.2Gsps, 8-bit, analog-to-digital converter
(ADC) enables the accurate digitizing of analog signals
with frequencies up to 2.5GHz. Fabricated on an
advanced SiGe process, the MAX109 integrates a highperformance track/hold (T/H) amplifier, a quantizer, and
a 1:4 demultiplexer on a single monolithic die. The
MAX109 also features adjustable offset, full-scale voltage (via REFIN), and sampling instance allowing multiple ADCs to be interleaved in time.
The innovative design of the internal T/H amplifier,
which has a wide 2.8GHz full-power bandwidth,
enables a flat-frequency response through the second
Nyquist region. This results in excellent ENOB performance of 6.9 bits. A fully differential comparator design
and decoding circuitry reduce out-of-sequence code
errors (thermometer bubbles or sparkle codes) and
provide excellent metastability performance (1014 clock
cycles). This design guarantees no missing codes.
The analog input is designed for both differential and
single-ended use with a 500mVP-P input-voltage range.
The output data is in standard LVDS format, and is
demultiplexed by an internal 1:4 demultiplexer. The
LVDS outputs operate from a supply-voltage range of
3V to 3.6V for compatibility with single 3V-reference
systems. Control inputs are provided for interleaving
additional MAX109 devices to increase the effective
system-sampling rate.
The MAX109 is offered in a 256-pin Super Ball-Grid Array
(SBGA) package and is specified over the extended
industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).

Note 2: Static linearity and offset parameters are computed from a best-fit straight line through the code transition points. The fullscale range (FSR) is defined as 255 x slope of the line where the slope of the line is determined by the end-point code transitions. When the analog input voltage exceeds positive FSR, the output code is 11111111; when the analog input voltage is
beyond the negative FSR, the output code is 00000000.
Note 3: Common-mode rejection ratio is defined as the ratio of the change in the transfer-curve offset voltage to the change in the
common-mode voltage, expressed in dB.
Note 4: The offset-adjust control input is tied to an internal 1.25V reference level through a resistor.
Note 5: Measured with the positive supplies tied to the same potential, VCCA = VCCD = VCCI. VCC varies from 4.75V to 5.25V.
Note 6: To achieve 2.8GHz full-power bandwidth, careful board layout techniques are required.
Note 7: The total harmonic distortion (THD) is computed from the second through the 15th harmonics.
Note 8: Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 9: RSTOUTP/RSTOUTN are tested for functionality.

Detailed Description
Principle of Operation
The architecture of the MAX109 provides the fastest
multibit conversion of all common integrated ADC
designs. The key to its architecture is an innovative,
high-performance comparator design. The MAX109
quantizer and its encoding logic translate the comparator outputs into a parallel 8-bit output code and pass
the binary code on to the 1:4 demultiplexer. Four separate ports (PortA, PortB, PortC, and PortD) output true
LVDS data at speeds of up to 550Msps per port
(depending on how the demultiplexer section is set on
the MAX109).
The ideal transfer function appears in Figure 2.

DIGITAL OUTPUT
The MAX109 is an 8-bit, 2.2Gsps flash analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) with an on-chip T/H amplifier and 1:4
demultiplexed high-speed LVDS outputs. The ADC
(Figure 1) employs a fully differential 8-bit quantizer and
a unique encoding scheme to limit metastable states
and ensures no error exceeds a maximum of 1 LSB.
An integrated 1:4 output demultiplexer simplifies interfacing to the part by reducing the output data rate to
one-quarter the sampling clock rate. This demultiplexer
circuit has integrated reset capabilities that allow multiple MAX109 converters to be time-interleaved to
achieve higher effective sampling rates.
When clocked at 2.2Gsps, the MAX109 provides a typical
effective number of bits (ENOB) of 6.9 bits at an analog
input frequency of 1600MHz. The MAX109 analog input is
designed for both differential and single-ended use with a
500mVP-P full-scale input range. In addition, this fast ADC
features an on-chip 2.5V precision bandgap reference. In
order to improve the MAX109 gain error further, an external reference may be used (see the Internal Reference
section).
Figure 2. Ideal Transfer Function
On-Chip Track/Hold Amplifier
As with all ADCs, if the input waveform is changing
rapidly during conversion, ENOB and signal-to-noise
ratio (SNR) specifications will degrade. The MAX109’s
on-chip, wide-bandwidth (2.8GHz) T/H amplifier
reduces this effect and increases the ENOB performance significantly, allowing precise capture of fastchanging analog data at high conversion rates.
The T/H amplifier accepts and buffers both DC- and
AC-coupled analog input signals and allows a full-scale
signal input range of 500mVP-P. The T/H amplifier’s differential 50Ω input termination simplifies interfacing to
the MAX109 with controlled impedance lines. Figure 3
shows a simplified diagram of the T/H amplifier stage
internal to the MAX109.

Figure 4. T/H Aperture Timing
Aperture width, delay, and jitter are parameters that
affect the dynamic performance of high-speed converters. Aperture jitter, in particular, directly influences SNR
and limits the maximum slew rate (dV/dt) that can be
digitized without contributing significant errors. The
MAX109’s innovative T/H amplifier design limits aperture jitter typically to 0.2ps.
The MAX109 clock signals are terminated with 50Ω to
the CLKCOM pin. The clock system provides clock signals, T/H amplifier, quantizer, and all back-end digital
blocks. The MAX109 also produces a digitized output
clock for synchronization with external FPGA or datacapture devices. Note that there is a 1.6ns delay
between the clock input (CLKP/CLKN) and its digitized
output representation (DCOP/DCON).
Sampling Point Adjustment (SAMPADJ)
The proper sampling point can be adjusted by utilizing
SAMPADJ as the control line. SAMPADJ accepts an
input-voltage range of 0 to 2.5V, correlating with up to
32ps timing adjustment. The nominal open-circuit voltage corresponds to the minimum sampling delay. With
an input resistance RSAMPADJ of typically 50kΩ, this
pin can be adjusted externally with a 10kΩ potentiometer connected between REFOUT and GNDI to adjust for
the proper sampling point.
T/H Amplifier to Quantizer Capture Point
Adjustment (DELGATE0, DELGATE1)
Another important feature of the MAX109, is the selection of the proper quantizer capture point between the
T/H amplifier and the ADC core. Depending on the
selected sampling speed for the application, two control lines can be utilized to set the proper capture point
between these two circuits. DELGATE0 (LSB) and DELGATE1 (MSB) set the coarse timing of the proper capture point. Using these control lines allow the user to
adjust the time after which the quantizer latches held
data from the T/H amplifier between 25ps and 50ps
(Table 1). This timing feature enables the MAX109 T/H
amplifier to settle its output properly before the quantizer captures and digitizes the data, thereby achieving
the best dynamic performance for any application.

Aperture Width, Aperture Jitter, and Aperture Delay
Aperture width (tAW) is the time the T/H circuit requires
to disconnect the hold capacitor from the input circuit
(e.g., to turn off the sampling bridge and put the T/H
unit in hold mode). Aperture jitter (tAJ) is the sample-tosample variation in the time between the samples.
Aperture delay (tAD) is the time defined between the
rising edge of the sampling clock and the instant when
an actual sample event is occurring (Figure 4).

Internal Reference
The MAX109 features an on-chip 2.5V precision
bandgap reference used to generate the full-scale
range for the data converter. Connecting REFIN with
REFOUT applies the reference output to the positive
input of the reference buffer. The buffer’s negative input
is internally connected to GNDR. It is recommended
that GNDR be connected to GNDI on the user’s application board.
If required, REFOUT can source up to 2.5mA to supply
other external devices. Additionally, an adjustable
external reference can be used to adjust the ADC’s fullscale range. To use an external reference supply, connect a high-precision bandgap reference to the REFIN
pin and leave the REFOUT pin floating. REFIN has a
typical input resistance RREFIN of 5kΩ and accepts
input voltages of 2.5V ±10%.
Digital LVDS Outputs
The MAX109 provides data in offset binary format to
differential LVDS outputs on four output ports (PortA,
PortB, PortC, and PortD). A simplified circuit schematic
of the LVDS output cells is shown in Figure 5. All LVDS
outputs are powered from the output driver supply
V CC O, which can be operated at 3.3V ±10%. The
MAX109 LVDS outputs provide a differential outputvoltage swing of 600mVP-P with a common-mode voltage of approximately 1.2V, and must be differentially
terminated at the far end of each transmission line pair
(true and complementary) with 100Ω.
Data Out-of-Range Operation
(DORP, DORN)
A single differential output pair (DORP, DORN) is provided to flag an out-of-range condition, if the applied
signal is outside the allowable input range, where outof-range is above positive full scale (+FS) or below

DORP/DORN features the same latency as the ADC
output data and is demultiplexed in a similar fashion, so
that this out-of-range signal and the data samples are
time-aligned.
Demultiplexer Operation
The MAX109’s internal 1:4 demultiplexer spreads the
ADC core’s 8-bit data across 32 true LVDS outputs and
allows for easy data capture in three different modes.
Two TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs are utilized to create
the different modes: SDR (standard data rate), DDR

Setting these two bits for different modes allows the

need for an ultra-fast FPGA or data-capture interface.
Data is presented on all four ports of the converterdemultiplexer circuit outputs. Note that there is a data
latency between the sampled data and each of the output ports. The data latency is 10.5 clock cycles for

PortC, and 7.5 clock cycles for PortD. This holds true for

REFOUT
The MAX109 is designed to work at full speed for both
single-ended and differential analog inputs; however,
for optimum dynamic performance it is recommended
that the inputs are driven differentially. Inputs INP and
INN feature on-chip, laser-trimmed 50Ω termination
resistors.
In a typical single-ended configuration, the analog
input signal (Figure 9) enters the T/H amplifier stage at
the in-phase input (INP), while the inverted phase input
(INN) is reverse-terminated to GNDI with an external
50Ω resistor. Single-ended operation allows for an input
amplitude of 500mVP-P. Table 4 shows a selection of
input voltages and their corresponding output codes
for single-ended operation.
Differential Analog Inputs
POTENTIOMETER
10kΩ
To obtain a full-scale digital output with differential input
drive (Figure 10), 250mVP-P must be applied between
INP and INN (INP = 125mV and INN = -125mV). Midscale digital output codes (01111111 or 10000000)
occur when there is no voltage difference between INP
and INN. For a zero-scale digital output code, the inphase INP input must see -125mV and the inverted
input INN must see 125mV. A differential input drive is
recommended for best performance. Table 5 represents a selection of differential input voltages and their
corresponding output codes.

The MAX109 provides a control input (VOSADJ) to

is a self-biased voltage-divider from the internal 2.5V
precision reference. The nominal open-circuit voltage is
one-half the reference voltage. With an input resistance
(RVOSADJ) of typically 50kΩ, VOSADJ can be driven
with an external 10kΩ potentiometer (Figure 11) connected between REFOUT and GNDI to correct for offset
errors. For stabilizing purposes, decouple this output
with a 0.01µF capacitor to GNDI. VOSADJ allows for a

ble input drive requirements. Each clock input is terminated with an on-chip, laser-trimmed 50Ω resistor to
CLKCOM (clock-termination return). The CLKCOM termination voltage can be connected anywhere between
ground and -2V for compatibility with standard-ECL drive
levels. The clock inputs are internally buffered with a preamplifier to ensure proper operation of the data converter, even with small-amplitude sine-wave sources. The
MAX109 was designed for single-ended, low-phase
22
noise sine-wave clock signals with as little as 100mV
amplitude (-10dBm), thereby eliminating the need for an
external ECL clock buffer and its added jitter.
Single-Ended Clock Inputs (Sine-Wave Drive)
Excellent performance is obtained by AC- or DC-coupling a low-phase-noise sine-wave source into a single
clock input (Figure 13a, Table 6). For proper DC balance, the undriven clock input should be externally

Differential Clock Inputs (Sine-Wave Drive)
The advantages of differential clock drive (Figure 13b,
Table 6) can be obtained by using an appropriate
balun transformer to convert single-ended sine-wave
sources into differential drives. The precision on-chip,
laser-trimmed 50Ω clock-termination resistors ensure
excellent amplitude matching. See the Single-Ended
Clock Inputs (Sine-Wave Drive) section for proper input
amplitude requirements.
Single-Ended Clock Inputs (ECL Drive)
Configure the MAX109 for single-ended ECL clock
drive by connecting the clock inputs as shown in Figure
13c and Table 6. A well-bypassed VBB supply (-1.3V) is
essential to avoid coupling noise into the undriven
clock input, which would degrade dynamic performance.
Differential Clock Inputs (ECL Drive)
Drive the MAX109 from a standard differential ECL
clock source (Figure 13d, Table 6) by setting the clock
termination voltage at CLKCOM to -2V. Bypass the
clock termination return (CLKCOM) as close to the ADC
as possible with a 0.01µF capacitor connected to
GNDI.

50Ω reverse-terminated to GNDI. The dynamic performance of the data converter is essentially unaffected
by clock-drive power levels from -10dBm to +10dBm.
The MAX109 dynamic performance specifications are
determined by a single-ended clock drive of 10dBm.
To avoid saturation of the input amplifier stage, limit the
clock power level to a maximum of 15dBm.
The MAX109 features an internal 1:4 demultiplexer that
reduces the data rate of the output digital data to onequarter the sample clock rate. A reset for the demultiplexer is necessary when interleaving multiple MAX109
converters and/or synchronizing external demultiplexers. The simplified block diagram of Figure 1 shows
that the demultiplexer reset signal path consists of four
main circuit blocks. From input to output, they are the
reset input dual latch, the reset pipeline, the demultiplexer clock generator, and the reset output. The signals associated with the demultiplexer-reset operation
and the control of this section are listed in Table 7.
Reset Input Dual Latch
The reset input dual-latch circuit block accepts LVDS
reset inputs. For applications that do not require a synchronizing reset, the reset inputs may be left open.
Figure 14 shows a simplified schematic of the reset
input structure. To latch the reset input data properly,
the setup time (tSU) and the data-hold time (tHD) must
be met with respect to the rising edge of the sample
clock. The timing diagram of Figure 15 shows the timing relationship of the reset input and sampling clock.
Reset Pipeline
The next section in the reset signal path is the reset
pipeline. This block adds clock cycles of latency to the

reset signal to match the latency of the converted analog data through the ADC. In this way, when reset data
arrives at the RSTOUTP/RSTOUTN LVDS output it will
be time-aligned with the analog data present in data
ports PortA, PortB, PortC, and PortD at the time the
reset input was deasserted.
Demultiplexer Clock Generator
The demultiplexer clock generator creates the clocks
required for the different modes of demultiplexer operation. DDR and QDR control the demultiplexed mode
selection, as described in Table 2. The timing diagrams
in Figures 6, 7, and 8 show the output timing and data
alignment for SDR, DDR, and QDR modes, respectively. The phase relationship between the sampling clock
at the CLKP/CLKN inputs and the DCO clock at the
DCOP/DCON outputs is random at device power-up.
Reset all MAX109 devices to a known DCO phase after
initial power-up for applications such as interleaving,
where two or more MAX109 devices are used to
achieve higher effective sampling rates. This synchro-
24
nization is necessary to set the order of output samples
between the devices. Resetting the converters accomplishes this synchronization. The reset signal is used to
force the internal counter in the demultiplexer clockgenerator block to a known phase state.
Reset Output
Finally, the reset signal is presented in true LVDS format to the last block of the reset signal path. RSTOUT
outputs the time-aligned reset signal, used for resetting
additional external demultiplexers in applications that
need further output data-rate reduction. Many demultiplexer devices require their reset signal to be asserted
for several clock cycles while they are clocked. To
accomplish this, the MAX109 DCO clock will continue
to toggle while RSTOUT is asserted. When a single
MAX109 device is used, no synchronizing reset is
required because the order of the samples in the output ports remains unchanged, regardless of the phase
of the DCO clock. In all modes, RSTOUT is delayed by
7.5 clock cycles, starting with the first rising edge of
CLKP following the falling edge of the RSTINP signal.
With the next reset cycle PortD data shows the expected and proper data on the output, while the remaining
three ports (PortA, PortB, and PortC) keep their previous data, which may or may not be swallowed ,
depending on the power-up state of the demultiplexer
clock generator. With the next cycle, the right data is
presented for all four ports in the proper order. The
aforementioned reset output and data-reset operation
is valid for SDR, DDR, and QDR modes.
Die Temperature Measurement
The die temperature of the MAX109 can be determined
by monitoring the voltage V TEMPMON between the
TEMPMON output and GNDI. The corresponding voltage is proportional to the actual die temperature of the
converter and can be calculated as follows:
TDIE (°C) = [(VTEMPMON - VGNDI) × 1303.5] - 371
The MAX109 exhibits a typical TEMPMON voltage of
0.35V, resulting in an overall die temperature of +90°C.
The converter’s die temperature can be lowered considerably by cooling the MAX109 with a properly sized
heatsink. Adding airflow across the part with a small fan
can further lower the die temperature, making the system more thermally manageable and stable.
Thermal Management
Depending on the application environment for the
SBGA-packaged MAX109, the user can apply an external heatsink with integrated fan to the package after
board assembly. Existing open-tooled heatsinks with

puts, should be routed on 50Ω microstrip lines, such as
those employed on the MAX109 evaluation kit.
The MAX109 has separate analog and digital powersupply inputs:
• VEE (-5V) is the analog and substrate supply
Bypassing/Layout/Power Supply
• VCCI (5V) to power the T/H amplifier, clock distribution, bandgap reference, and reference amplifier
• VCCA (5V) to supply the ADC’s comparator array
• VCCO (3.3V) to establish power for all LVDS-based
circuit sections
• VCCD (5V) to supply all logic circuits of the data converter
The MAX109 VEE supply contacts must not be left open
while the part is being powered up. To avoid this condition, add a high-speed Schottky diode (such as a
Motorola 1N5817) between VEE and GNDI. This diode
prevents the device substrate from forward biasing,
which could cause latchup. All supplies should be
decoupled with large tantalum or electrolytic capacitors
at the point they enter the PCB. For best performance,
bypass all power supplies to the appropriate grounds
with a 330µF and 33µF tantalum capacitor to filter powersupply noise, in parallel with 0.1µF capacitors and highquality 0.01µF ceramic chip capacitors. Each power
Grounding and power-supply decoupling strongly influence the MAX109’s performance. At a 2.2GHz clock
frequency and 8-bit resolution, unwanted digital
crosstalk may couple through the input, reference,
power supply, and ground connections and adversely
influence the dynamic performance of the ADC.
Therefore, closely follow the grounding and power-supply decoupling guidelines (Figure 17). Maxim strongly
recommends using a multilayer printed circuit board
(PCB) with separate ground and power-supply planes.
Since the MAX109 has separate analog and digital
ground connections (GNDA, GNDI, GNDR, and GNDD,
respectively), the PCB should feature separate analog
and digital ground sections connected at only one
point (star ground at the power supply). Digital signals
should run above the digital ground plane, and analog
signals should run above the analog ground plane.
Keep digital signals far away from the sensitive analog
inputs, reference inputs, and clock inputs. High-speed
signals, including clocks, analog inputs, and digital out-

Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between an
actual step width and the ideal value of 1 LSB. A DNL
error specification of less than 1 LSB guarantees no
missing codes and a monotonic transfer function. For
the MAX109, DNL deviations are measured at every
step of the transfer function and the worst-case deviation is reported in the Electrical Characteristics table.

Offset error is a figure of merit that indicates how well
the actual transfer function matches the ideal transfer
function at a single point. Ideally, the mid-scale
MAX109 transition occurs at 0.5 LSB above mid scale.
The offset error is the amount of deviation between the
measured mid-scale transition point and the ideal midscale transition point.

Bit Error Rates
Errors resulting from metastable states may occur when
the analog input voltage (at the time the sample is
taken) falls close to the decision point of any one of the
input comparators. Here, the magnitude of the error
depends on the location of the comparator in the comparator network. If it is the comparator for the MSB, the
error will reach full scale. The MAX109’s unique encoding scheme solves this problem by limiting the magnitude of these errors to 1 LSB.

Static/DC Parameter Definitions
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Integral nonlinearity is the deviation of the values on an
actual transfer function from a straight line. For the
MAX109, this straight line is between the endpoints of
the transfer function, once offset and gain errors have
been nullified. INL deviations are measured at every
step of the transfer function and the worst-case deviation is reported in the Electrical Characteristics table.

Dynamic/AC Parameter
Definitions
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
For a waveform perfectly reconstructed from digital
samples, the theoretical maximum SNR is the ratio of
the full-scale analog input (RMS value) to the RMS
quantization error (residual error). The ideal theoretical
minimum analog-to-digital noise is caused by quantization error only and results directly from the ADC’s resolution (N bits):
SNR[max] = 6.02 x N + 1.76
In reality, there are other noise sources besides quantization noise: thermal noise, reference noise, clock jitter,
etc. SNR is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS
signal to the RMS noise. RMS noise includes all spectral components to the Nyquist frequency excluding the
fundamental, the first 15 harmonics (HD2 through
HD16), and the DC offset:
SNR = 20 x log (SIGNALRMS / NOISERMS)
Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion (SINAD)
SINAD is computed by taking the ratio of the RMS signal to the RMS noise plus distortion. RMS noise plus

Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
ENOB indicates the global accuracy of an ADC at a
specific input frequency and sampling rate. An ideal
ADC’s error consists of quantization noise only. ENOB
is calculated from a curve fit referenced to the theoretical full-scale range.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the RMS sum of the first 15 harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental itself. This is
expressed as:

V22 + V32 + ... + V162
THD = 20 × log ⎜

Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the ratio expressed in decibels of the RMS
amplitude of the fundamental (maximum signal component) to the RMS value of the next largest spurious
component, excluding DC offset.
Third-Order Intermodulation (IM3)
IM3 is the total power of the third-order intermodulation
product to the Nyquist frequency relative to the total
input power of the two input tones, fIN1 and fIN2. The
individual input tone levels are at -7dBFS. The third-order
intermodulation products are located at 2 x fIN1-fIN2, 2 x
fIN2-fIN1, 2 x fIN1+fIN2, and 2 x fIN2+fIN1.
Full-Power Bandwidth
A large -1dBFS analog input signal is applied to an
ADC and the input frequency is swept up to the point
where the amplitude of the digitized conversion result
has decreased by -3dB. This point is defined as fullpower input bandwidth frequency.
where V1 is the fundamental amplitude, and V2 through
V16 are the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 16th-order
harmonics (HD2 through HD16).
