GENERAL DESCRIPTION The AD9983A is a complete 8-bit, 170 MSPS, monolithic analog interface optimized for capturing YPbPr video and RGB graphics signals. Its 170 MSPS encode rate capability and full power analog bandwidth of 300 MHz support all HDTV video modes up to 1080p as well as graphics resolutions up to UXGA (1600 x 1200 at 60 Hz). The AD9983A includes a 170 MHz triple ADC with an internal reference, a PLL, and programmable gain, offset, and clamp control. The user provides only a 1.8 V power supply and an analog input. Three-state CMOS outputs can be powered from 1.8 V to 3.3 V. The AD9983A on-chip PLL generates a sample clock from the tri-level sync (for YPbPr video) or the horizontal sync (for RGB graphics). Sample clock output frequencies range from 10 MHz to 170 MHz. With internal coast generation, the PLL maintains its output frequency in the absence of sync input. A 32-step sampling clock phase adjustment is provided. Output data, sync, and clock phase relationships are maintained. The auto-offset feature can be enabled to automatically restore the signal reference levels and to automatically calibrate out any offset differences between the three channels. The auto channelto-channel gain matching feature can be enabled to minimize any gain mismatches between the three channels. The AD9983A also offers full sync processing for composite sync and sync-on-green applications. A clamp signal is generated internally or may be provided by the user through the CLAMP input pin. Fabricated in an advanced CMOS process, the AD9983A is provided in a space-saving 80-lead, Pb-free, LQFP surfacemount plastic package or a 64-lead LFCSP package, and is specified over the 0°C to 70°C temperature range.

The three channels are identical and can be used for any colors, but colors are assigned for convenient reference. They accommodate input signals ranging from 0.5 V to 1.0 V full scale. Signals should be ac-coupled to these pins to support clamp operation. See Figure 4 and Figure 5. These inputs receive a logic signal that establishes the horizontal timing reference and provides the frequency reference for pixel clock generation. The logic sense of this pin can be automatically determined by the chip or manually controlled by Serial Register 0x12, Bits[5:4] (Hsync polarity). Only the leading edge of Hsync is used by the PLL; the trailing edge is used in clamp timing. When Hsync polarity = 0, the falling edge of Hsync is used. When Hsync polarity = 1, the rising edge is active. The input includes a Schmitt trigger for noise immunity. These are the inputs for vertical sync and provide timing information for generation of the field (odd/even) and internal Coast generation. The logic sense of this pin can be automatically determined by the chip or manually controlled by Serial Register 0x14, Bits[5:4] (Vsync polarity). These inputs process signals with embedded sync, typically on the green channel. The pin is connected to a high speed comparator with an internally generated threshold. The threshold level can be programmed in 8 mV steps to any voltage between 8 mV and 256 mV above the negative peak of the input signal. The default voltage threshold is 128 mV. When connected to an ac-coupled graphics signal with embedded sync, it produces a noninverting digital output on SOGOUT. This is usually a composite sync signal, containing both vertical and horizontal sync information that must be separated before passing the horizontal sync signal for Hsync processing. When not used, this input should be left unconnected. For more details on this function and how it should be configured, refer to the Sync-on-Green section. This logic input can be used to define the time during which the input signal is clamped to ground or midscale. It should be exercised when the reference dc level is known to be present on the analog input channels, typically during the back porch of the graphics signal. The CLAMP pin is enabled by setting the control bit clamp function to 1, (Register 0x18, Bit 4; default is 0). When disabled, this pin is ignored and the clamp timing is determined internally by counting a delay and duration from the trailing edge of the Hsync input. The logic sense of this pin can be automatically determined by the chip or controlled by clamp polarity Register 0x1B, Bits[7:6]. When not used, this pin may be left unconnected (there is an internal pull-down resistor) and the clamp function programmed to 0. EXTCK allows the insertion of an external clock source rather than the internally generated, PLL locked clock. EXTCK is enabled by programming Register 0x03, Bit 2 to 1. This pin is shared with the Coast function, which does not affect EXTCK functionality. COAST can be used to cause the pixel clock generator to stop synchronizing with Hsync and continue producing a clock at its current frequency and phase. This is useful when processing signals from sources that fail to produce Hsync pulses during the vertical interval. The coast signal is generally not required for PC-generated signals. The logic sense of this pin can be determined automatically or controlled by Coast polarity (Register 0x18, Bits[7:6]). When not used and EXTCK not used, this pin may be grounded and Coast polarity programmed to 1. Input Coast polarity defaults to1 at power-up. This pin is shared with the EXTCK function, which does not affect coast functionality. For more details on EXTCK, see the description in this section. This pin can be used along with Register 0x1E, Bit 3 for manual power-down control. If manual power-down control is selected (Register 0x1E, Bit 4) and this pin is not used, it is recommended to set the pin polarity (Register 0x1E, Bit 2) to active high and hardwire this pin to ground with a 10 kΩ resistor.

These are used for stability in the input ADC circuitry. See Figure 6. For proper operation, the pixel clock generator PLL requires an external filter. Connect the filter shown in Figure 7 to this pin. For optimal performance, minimize noise and parasitics on this node. For more information, see the PCB Layout Recommendations section. A reconstructed and phase-aligned version of the Hsync input. Both the polarity and duration of this output can be programmed via serial bus registers. By maintaining alignment with DATACK and Data, data timing with respect to Hsync can always be determined. Pin shared with A0, serial port address. This can be either a separated Vsync from a composite signal or a direct pass through of the Vsync signal. The polarity of this output can be controlled via a serial bus bit. The placement and duration in all modes can be set by the graphics transmitter or the duration can be set by Register 0x14, Bit 1 and Register 0x15, Bits[7:0]. This pin is shared with the A0 function, which does not affect Vsync Output functionality. For more details on A0, see the description in the Serial Control Port section. Pin shared with VSOUT. This pin selects the LSB of the serial port device address, allowing two Analog Devices parts to be on the same serial bus. A high impedance external pull-up resistor enables this pin to be read at power-up as 1, or a high impedance, external pull-down resistor enables this pin to be read at power-up as a 0 and not interfere with the VSOUT functionality. This pin outputs one of four possible signals (controlled by Register 0x1D, Bits[1:0]): raw SOG, raw Hsync, regenerated Hsync from the filter, or the filtered Hsync. See Figure 9 to view how this pin is connected. Other than slicing off SOG, the output from this pin gets no additional processing on the AD9983A. Vsync separation is performed via the sync separator. This output will identify whether the current field (in an interlaced signal) is odd or even. Data I/O for the I2C® serial port. Clock for the I2C serial port. The main data outputs. Bit 9 is the MSB. The delay from pixel sampling time to output is fixed. When the sampling time is changed by adjusting the phase register, the output timing is shifted as well. The DATACK and HSOUT outputs are also moved, so the timing relationship among the signals is maintained. This is the main clock output signal used to strobe the output data and HSOUT into external logic. Four possible output clocks can be selected with Register 0x20, Bits[7:6]. Three of these are related to the pixel clock (pixel clock, 90° phase-shifted pixel clock and 2× frequency pixel clock). They are produced either by the internal PLL clock generator or EXTCK and are synchronous with the pixel sampling clock. The fourth option for the data clock output is an internally generated 1⁄2x pixel clock. The sampling time of the internal pixel clock can be changed by adjusting the phase register (Register 0x04). When this is changed, the pixel related DATACK timing is also shifted. The data, DATACK, and HSOUT outputs are all moved so that the timing relationship among the signals is maintained. These pins supply power to the main elements of the circuit. They should be as quiet and filtered as possible. A large number of output pins (up to 29) switching at high speed (up to 170 MHz) generates a lot of power supply transients (noise). These supply pins are identified separately from the VD pins, so special care can be taken to minimize output noise transferred into the sensitive analog circuitry. If the AD9983A is interfacing with lower voltage logic, VDD can be connected to a lower supply voltage (as low as 1.8 V) for compatibility. The most sensitive portion of the AD9983A is the clock generation circuitry. These pins provide power to the clock PLL and help the user design for optimal performance. The designer should provide quiet, noise-free power to these pins. This supplies power to the digital logic. The ground return for all circuitry on-chip. It is recommended that the AD9983A be assembled on a single solid ground plane, with careful attention to ground current paths. Rev. PrA | Page 10 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A The AD9983A is a fully integrated solution for capturing analog RGB or YPbPr signals and digitizing them for display on advanced TVs, flat panel monitors, projectors, and other types of digital displays. Implemented in a high performance CMOS process, the interface can capture signals with pixel rates of up to 170 MHz. The AD9983A includes all necessary input buffering, signal dc restoration (clamping), offset and gain (brightness and contrast) adjustment, pixel clock generation, sampling phase control, and output data formatting. All controls are programmable via a 2-wire serial interface (I2C). Full integration of these sensitive analog functions makes system design straightforward and less sensitive to the physical and electrical environment. With a typical power dissipation of less than 900 mW and an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, the device requires no special environmental considerations. DIGITAL INPUTS All digital inputs on the AD9983A operate to 3.3 V CMOS levels. The following digital inputs are 5 V tolerant (that is, applying 5 V to them does not cause any damage.): HSYNC0, HSYNC1, VSYNC0, VSYNC1, SOGIN0, SOGIN1, SDA, SCL and CLAMP. 47nF RGB INPUT 75Ω Figure 4. Analog Input Interface Circuit HSYNC AND VSYNC INPUTS The interface also accepts Hsync and Vsync signals, which are used to generate the pixel clock, clamp timing, coast and field information. These can be either a sync signal directly from the graphics source, or a preprocessed TTL- or CMOS-level signal. The Hsync input includes a Schmitt trigger buffer for immunity to noise and signals with long rise times. In typical PC-based graphic systems, the sync signals are simply TTL-level drivers feeding unshielded wires in the monitor cable. As such, no termination is required. SERIAL CONTROL PORT The serial control port is designed for 3.3 V logic; however, it is tolerant of 5 V logic signals. Refer to the 2-Wire Serial Control Port section. OUTPUT SIGNAL HANDLING The digital outputs operate from 1.8 V to 3.3 V (VDD). ANALOG INPUT SIGNAL HANDLING CLAMPING The AD9983A has six high impedance analog input pins for the red, green, and blue channels. They accommodate signals ranging from 0.5 V to 1.0 V p-p. RGB Clamping Signals are typically brought onto the interface board with a DVI-I connector, a 15-pin D connector, or RCA connectors. The AD9983A should be located as close as possible to the input connector. Signals should be routed using matchedimpedance traces (normally 75 Ω) to the IC input pins. At the input pins the signal should be resistively terminated (75 Ω to the signal ground return) and capacitively coupled to the AD9983A inputs through 47 nF capacitors. These capacitors form part of the dc restoration circuit. In an ideal world of perfectly matched impedances, the best performance can be obtained with the widest possible signal bandwidth. The wide bandwidth inputs of the AD9983A (300 MHz) can track the input signal continuously as it moves from one pixel level to the next and can digitize the pixel during a long, flat pixel time. In many systems, however, there are mismatches, reflections, and noise, which can result in excessive ringing and distortion of the input waveform. This makes it more difficult to establish a sampling phase that provides good image quality. A small inductor in series with the input is effective in rolling off the input bandwidth slightly and providing a high quality signal over a wider range of conditions. Using a Fair-Rite #2508051217Z0-High Speed, Signal Chip Bead Inductor in the circuit shown in Figure 4 provides good results in most applications. RAIN GAIN BAIN 06475-003 THEORY OF OPERATION To properly digitize the incoming signal, the dc offset of the input must be adjusted to fit the range of the on-board ADCs. Most graphics systems produce RGB signals with black at ground and white at approximately 0.75 V. However, if sync signals are embedded in the graphics, the sync tip is often at ground, black is at 300 mV, and white is at approximately 1.0 V. Some common RGB line amplifier boxes use emitter-follower buffers to split signals and increase drive capability. This introduces a 700 mV dc offset to the signal, which must be removed for proper capture by the AD9983A. The key to clamping is to identify a portion (time) of the signal when the graphic system is known to be producing black. An offset is then introduced that results in the ADC producing a black output (Code 0x00) when the known black input is present. The offset then remains in place when other signal levels are processed, and the entire signal is shifted to eliminate offset errors. Rev. PrA | Page 11 of 44 AD9983A Preliminary Technical Data In most PC graphics systems, black is transmitted between active video lines. With CRT displays, when the electron beam has completed writing a horizontal line on the screen (at the right side), the beam is deflected quickly to the left side of the screen (called horizontal retrace) and a black signal is provided to prevent the beam from disturbing the image. Clamping to midscale rather than ground can be accomplished by setting the clamp select bits in the serial bus register. Each of the three converters has its own selection bit so that they can be clamped to either midscale or ground independently. These bits are located in Register 0x18, Bits[3:1]. The midscale reference voltage is internally generated for each converter. In systems with embedded sync, a blacker-than-black signal (Hsync) is produced briefly to signal the CRT that it is time to begin a retrace. Because the input is not at black level at this time, it is important to avoid clamping during Hsync. Fortunately, there is usually a period following Hsync, called the back porch, where a good black reference is provided. This is the time when clamping should be done. GAIN AND OFFSET CONTROL The clamp timing can be established by simply exercising the CLAMP pin at the appropriate time with clamp source (Register 0x18, Bit 4) = 1. The polarity of this signal is set by the clamp polarity bit, (Register 0x1B, Bits[7:6]). A simpler method of clamp timing employs the AD9983A internal clamp timing generator. The clamp placement register (Register 0x19) is programmed with the number of pixel periods that should pass after the trailing edge of Hsync before clamping starts. A second register, clamp duration, (Register 0x1A) sets the duration of the clamp. These are both 8-bit values, providing considerable flexibility in clamp generation. The clamp timing is referenced to the trailing edge of Hsync because, though Hsync duration can vary widely, the back porch (black reference) always follows Hsync. A good starting point for establishing clamping is to set the clamp placement to 0x04 (providing 4 pixel periods for the graphics signal to stabilize after sync) and set the clamp duration to 0x28 (giving the clamp 40 pixel periods to reestablish the black reference). Clamping is accomplished by placing an appropriate charge on the external input coupling capacitor. The value of this capacitor affects the performance of the clamp. If it is too small, there will be a significant amplitude change during a horizontal line time (between clamping intervals). If the capacitor is too large, it will take too long for the clamp to recover from a large change in incoming signal offset. The recommended value (47 nF) results in recovering from a step error of 100 mV to within 1 LSB in 30 lines with a clamp duration of 20 pixel periods on a 85 Hz XGA signal. YPbPr Clamping YPbPr graphic signals are slightly different from RGB signals in that the dc reference level (black level in RGB signals) of color difference signals is at the midpoint of the video signal rather than at the bottom. The three inputs are composed of luminance (Y) and color difference (Pb and Pr) signals. For color difference signals, it is necessary to clamp to the midscale range of the ADC range (512) rather than to the bottom of the ADC range (0), while the Y channel is clamped to ground. The AD9983A contains three PGAs, one for each of the three analog inputs. The range of the PGA is sufficient to accommodate input signals with inputs ranging from 0.5 V to 1.0 V full scale. The gain is set in three 7-bit registers (red gain [0x05], green gain [0x07], blue gain [0x09]). For each register, a gain setting of 0 corresponds to the highest gain, while a gain setting of 127 corresponds to the lowest gain. Note that increasing the gain setting results in an image with less contrast. The offset control shifts the analog input, resulting in a change in brightness. Three 9-bit registers red offset [Register 0x0B and Register 0x0C], green offset [Register 0x0D and Register 0x0E], and blue offset [Register 0x0F and Register 0x10] provide independent settings for each channel. Note that the function of the offset register depends on whether auto-offset is enabled (Register 0x1B, Bit 5). If manual offset is used, seven bits of the offset registers (for the red channel Register 0x0B, Bits[6:0]) control the absolute offset added to the channel. The offset control provides ±63 LSBs of adjustment range, with 1 LSB of offset corresponding to 1 LSB of output code. Automatic Offset In addition to the manual offset adjustment mode, the AD9983A also includes circuitry to automatically calibrate the offset for each channel. By monitoring the output of each ADC during the back porch of the input signals, the AD9983A can self-adjust to eliminate any offset errors in its own ADC channels and any offset errors present on the incoming graphics or video signals. To activate the auto-offset mode, set Register 0x1B, Bit 5 to 1. Next, the target code registers (Register 0x0B through Register 0x10) must be programmed. The values programmed into the target code registers should be the output code desired from the AD9983A ADCs, which are generated during the back porch reference time. For example, for RGB signals, all three registers are normally programmed to Code 2, while for YPbPr signals the green (Y) channel is normally programmed to Code 2 and the blue and red channels (Pb and Pr) are normally set to 128. The target code registers have nine bits per channel and are in twos complement format. This allows any value between –256 and +255 to be programmed. Although any value in this range can be programmed, the AD9983A offset range may not be able to reach every value. Intended target code values range from (but are not limited to) –40 to –1 and 1 to 40 when ground clamping and 88 to 168 when midscale clamping. Note that a target code of 0 is not valid. Rev. PrA | Page 12 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A Negative target codes are included in order to duplicate a feature that is present with manual offset adjustment. The benefit that is being mimicked is the ability to easily adjust brightness on a display. By setting the target code to a value that does not correspond to the ideal ADC range, the end result is an image that is either brighter or darker. A target code higher than ideal results in a brighter image. A target code lower than ideal results in a darker image. The ability to program a target code gives a large degree of freedom and flexibility. In most cases all channels are set to either 1 or 128, but the flexibility to select other values allows for the possibility of inserting intentional skews between channels. It also allows the ADC range to be skewed so that voltages outside of the normal range can be digitized. For example, setting the target code to 40 allows the sync tip, which is normally below black level, to be digitized and evaluated. The internal logic for the auto-offset circuit requires 16 data clock cycles to perform its function. This operation is executed immediately after the clamping pulse. Therefore, it is important to end the clamping pulse signal at least 16 data clock cycles before active video. This is true whether using the AD9983A internal clamp circuit or an external clamp signal. The autooffset function can be programmed to run continuously or on a one-time basis (see auto-offset hold, Register 0x2C, Bit 4). In continuous mode, the update frequency can be programmed (Register 0x1B, Bits[4:3]). Continuous operation with updates every 64 Hsyncs is recommended. A guideline for basic auto-offset operation is shown in Table 6 and Table 7. Table 6.

Auto gain matching has similar timing requirements to auto offset. It requires 16 data clock cycles to perform its function, starting immediately after the end of the clamp pulse. Unlike auto offset it does not require that these 16 clock cycles occur during the back porch reference time, although that is what is recommended. During auto gain matching operation, the data outputs of the AD9983A are frozen (held at the value they had just prior to operation). The auto gain matching function can be programmed to run continuously or on a one-time basis (see Auto Gain Matching Hold section, Register 0x2C, Bit 3). In continuous mode, the update frequency can be programmed (Register 0x1B, Bit 4 and Bit 3). Continuous operation with updates every 64 Hsyncs is recommended. SYNC-ON-GREEN The sync-on-green inputs (SOGIN0, SOGIN1) operate in two steps. First, they set a baseline clamp level off of the incoming video signal with a negative peak detector. Second, they set the sync trigger level to a programmable (Register 0x1D, Bits[7:3]) level (typically 128 mV) above the negative peak. The sync-ongreen inputs must be ac-coupled to the green analog input through their own capacitors. The value of the capacitors must be 1 nF ±20%. If sync-on-green is not used, this connection is not required. The sync-on-green signal always has negative polarity. 47nF RAIN 47nF BAIN 47nF GAIN 1nF SOGIN Figure 5.

Matching the gains of each channel is necessary in order to achieve good color balance on a display. On products without this feature, gain matching is achieved by writing software that evaluates the output of each channel, calculates gain mismatches, then writes values to the gain registers of each channel to compensate. With the auto gain matching function, this software routine is no longer needed. To activate auto gain matching, set Register 0x3C, Bit 2 to Bit 1.

Input Amplifier Reference Capacitors AD9983A Preliminary Technical Data CLOCK GENERATION A PLL is used to generate the pixel clock. The Hsync input provides a reference frequency to the PLL. A voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) generates a much higher pixel clock frequency. The pixel clock is divided by the PLL divide value (Register 0x01 and Register 0x02) and phase-compared with the Hsync input. Any error is used to shift the VCO frequency and maintain lock between the two signals. The stability of this clock is a very important element in providing the clearest and most stable image. During each pixel time, there is a period during which the signal slews from the old pixel amplitude and settles at its new value. Then there is a time when the input voltage is stable, before the signal must slew to a new value (see Figure 7). The ratio of the slewing time to the stable time is a function of the bandwidth of the graphics DAC and the bandwidth of the transmission system (cable and termination). It is also a function of the overall pixel rate. Clearly, if the dynamic characteristics of the system remain fixed, then the slewing and settling time is likewise fixed. This time must be subtracted from the total pixel period, leaving the stable period. At higher pixel frequencies, the total cycle time is shorter and the stable pixel time also becomes shorter. PIXEL CLOCK INVALID SAMPLE TIMES Four programmable registers are provided to optimize the performance of the PLL. These registers are the 12-Bit Divisor Register, the 2-Bit VCO Range Register, the 3-Bit Charge Pump Current Register, and the 5-Bit Phase Adjust Register. The 12-Bit Divisor Register. The input Hsync frequencies can accommodate any Hsync as long as the product of the Hsync and the PLL divisor falls within the operating range of the VCO. The PLL multiplies the frequency of the Hsync signal, producing pixel clock frequencies in the range of 10 MHz to 170 MHz. The divisor register controls the exact multiplication factor. This register may be set to any value between 2 and 4095 as long as the output frequency is within range. The 2-Bit VCO Range Register To improve the noise performance of the AD9983A, the VCO operating frequency range is divided into four overlapping regions. The VCO range register sets this operating range. The frequency ranges for the four regions are shown in Table 8. Table 8. VCO Frequency Ranges PV1 0 0 1 1 PV0 0 1 0 1 Pixel Clock Range (MHz) 10 to 21 21 to 42 42 to 84 84 to 170 KVCO Gain (MHz/V) 150 150 150 150 The 3-Bit Charge Pump Current Register. This register varies the current that drives the low pass loop filter. The possible current values are listed in Table 9. 06475-005 Table 9. Charge Pump Current/Control Bits Figure 7. Pixel Sampling Times Any jitter in the clock reduces the precision with which the sampling time can be determined and must also be subtracted from the stable pixel time. Considerable care has been taken in the design of the AD9983A clock generation circuit to minimize jitter. The clock jitter of the AD9983A is low in all operating modes, making the reduction in the valid sampling time due to jitter negligible. The PLL characteristics are determined by the loop filter design, the PLL charge pump current, and the VCO range setting. The loop filter design is shown in Figure 8. Recommended settings of the VCO range and charge pump current for VESA standard display modes are listed in Table 10. RZ 1.5kΩ CZ 82nF PVD FILT Figure 8.

The phase adjust register provides 32 phase-shift steps of 11.25° each. The Hsync signal with an identical phase shift is available through the HSOUT pin. Phase adjust is still available if an external pixel clock is used. The COAST pin or the internal coast is used to allow the PLL to continue to run at the same frequency in the absence of the incoming Hsync signal or during disturbances in Hsync (such as from equalization pulses). This can be used during the vertical sync period or at any other time that the Hsync signal is unavailable. Rev. PrA | Page 14 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A The polarity of the coast signal may be set through the coast polarity register (Register 0x18, Bits[6:5]). Also, the polarity of the Hsync signal can be set through the Hsync polarity register (Register 0x12, Bits[5:4]). For both Hsync and coast, a value of 1 is active high. The internal coast function is driven off the Vsync signal, which is typically a time when Hsync signals may be disrupted with extra equalization pulses. Table 10.

Sync Processing Block Diagram SYNC PROCESSING The inputs of the sync processing section of the AD9983A are combinations of digital Hsyncs and Vsyncs, analog sync-ongreen, or sync-on-Y signals, and an optional external coast signal. From these signals it generates a precise, jitter-free clock from its PLL; an odd/even field signal; HSOUT and VSOUT signals; a count of Hsyncs per Vsync; and a programmable SOGOUT. The main sync processing blocks are the sync slicer, sync separator, Hsync filter, Hsync regenerator, Vsync filter, and coast generator. • The sync slicer extracts the sync signal from the green graphics or luminance video signal that is connected to the SOGINx input and outputs a digital composite sync. • The sync separator’s task is to extract Vsync from the composite sync signal, which can come from either the sync slicer or the HSYNCx inputs. • The Hsync filter is used to eliminate any extraneous pulses from the HSYNCx or SOGINx inputs, outputting a clean, low jitter signal that is appropriate for mode detection and clock generation. • The Hsync regenerator is used to recreate a clean, although not low jitter, Hsync signal that can be used for mode detection and counting Hsyncs per Vsync. • The Vsync filter is used to eliminate spurious Vsyncs, maintain a stable timing relationship between the Vsync and Hsync output signals, and generate the odd/even field output. • The coast generator creates a robust coast signal that allows the PLL to maintain its frequency in the absence of Hsync pulses. Sync Slicer The purpose of the sync slicer is to extract the sync signal from the green graphics or luminance video signal that is connected to the SOG input. The sync signal is extracted in a two step process. First, the SOG input is clamped to its negative peak, (typically 0.3 V below the black level). Next, the signal goes to a comparator with a variable trigger level (set by Register 0x1D, Bits[7:3]), but nominally 0.128 V above the clamped level. The sync slicer output is a digital composite sync signal containing both Hsync and Vsync information (see Figure 10). Rev. PrA | Page 16 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A NEGATIVE PULSE WIDTH = 40 SAMPLE CLOCKS 700mV MAXIMUM SOG INPUT +300mV 0mV –300mV SOGOUT OUTPUT CONNECTED TO HSYNCIN 06475-015 COMPOSITE SYNC AT HSYNCIN VSYNCOUT FROM SYNC SEPARATOR Figure 10. Sync Slicer and Sync Separator Output Sync Separator As part of sync processing, the sync separator’s task is to extract Vsync from the composite sync signal. It works on the idea that the Vsync signal stays active for a much longer time than the Hsync signal. By using a digital low-pass filter and a digital comparator, it rejects pulses with small durations (such as Hsyncs and equalization pulses) and only passes pulses with large durations, such as Vsync (see Figure 10). The threshold of the digital comparator is programmable for maximum flexibility. To program the threshold duration, write a value (N) to Register 0x11. The resulting pulse width is N × 200 ns. So, if N = 5, the digital comparator threshold is 1 μs. Any pulse less than 1 μs is rejected, while any pulse greater than 1 μs passes through. There are two factors to consider when using the sync separator. First, the resulting clean Vsync output is delayed from the original Vsync by a duration equal to the digital comparator threshold (N × 200 ns). Second, there is some variability to the 200 ns multiplier value. The maximum variability over all operating conditions is ±20% (160 ns to 240 ns). Since normal Vsync and Hsync pulse widths differ by a factor of approximately 500 or more, the 20% variability is not an issue. Hsync Filter and Regenerator The Hsync filter is used to eliminate any extraneous pulses from the Hsync or SOGIN inputs, outputting a clean, low jitter signal that is appropriate for mode detection and clock generation. The Hsync regenerator is used to recreate a clean, although not low jitter, Hsync signal that can be used for mode detection and counting Hsyncs per Vsync. The Hsync regenerator has a high degree of tolerance to extraneous and missing pulses on the Hsync input, but is not appropriate for use by the PLL in creating the pixel clock due to jitter. The Hsync regenerator runs automatically and requires no setup to operate. The Hsync filter requires the setting up of a filter window. The filter window sets a periodic window of time around the regenerated Hsync leading edge where valid Hsyncs are allowed to occur. The general idea is that extraneous pulses on the sync input occur outside of this filter window and thus are filtered out. To set the filter window timing, program a value (x) into Register 0x23. The resulting filter window time is ±x times 25 ns around the regenerated Hsync leading edge. Just as for the sync separator threshold multiplier, allow a ±20% variance in the 25 ns multiplier to account for all operating conditions (20 ns to 30 ns range). A second output from the Hsync filter is a status bit (Register 0x25, Bit 1) that tells whether extraneous pulses were present on the incoming sync signal or not. Often, extraneous pulses are included for copy protection purposes, so this status bit can be used to detect that. The filtered Hsync (rather than the raw HSYNCx/SOGINx signal) for pixel clock generation by the PLL is controlled by Register 0x20, Bit 2. The regenerated Hsync (rather than the raw Hsync/SOGIN signal) for the sync processing is controlled by Register 0x20, Bit 1. Use of the filtered Hsync and regenerated Hsync is recommended. See Figure 11 for an illustration of a filtered Hsync. Rev.

Sync Processing Filter SYNC SEPARATOR THRESHOLD Vsync Filter and Odd/Even Fields The filter works by examining the placement of Vsync with respect to Hsync and if necessary shifting it in time slightly. The goal is to keep the Vsync and Hsync leading edges from switching at the same time, thus eliminating confusion as to when the first line of a frame occurs. Register 0x14, Bit 2 enables the Vsync filter. Use of the Vsync filter is recommended for all cases, including interlaced video, and is required when using the Hsyncs per Vsync counter.

PrA | Page 18 of 44 06475-018 VSYNCOUT Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A POWER MANAGEMENT To meet display requirements for low standby power, the AD9983A includes a power-down mode. The power-down state can be controlled manually (via Pin 17 or Register 0x1E, Bit 3), or automatically by the chip. If automatic control is selected (Register 0x1E, Bit 4), the AD9983A decision is based on the status of the sync detect bits (Register 0x24, Bit 2, Bit 3, Bit 6, and Bit 7). If either an Hsync or a sync-on-green input is detected on any input, the chip powers up, otherwise it powers down. For manual control, the AD9983A allows flexibility of control through both a dedicated pin and a register bit. The dedicated pin allows a hardware watchdog circuit to control power-down, while the register bit allows power-down to be controlled by software. With manual power-down control, the polarity of the power-down pin must be set (Register 0x1E, Bit 2) whether the pin is used or not. If unused, it is recommended to set the polarity to active high and hardwire the pin to ground with a 10 kΩ resistor. In power-down mode, there are several circuits that continue to operate as normal. The serial register and sync detect circuits maintain power so that the AD9983A can be woken up from its power-down state. The bandgap circuit maintains power because it is needed for sync detection. The sync-on-green and SOGOUT functions continue to operate because the SOGOUT output is needed when sync detection is performed by a secondary chip. All of these circuits require minimal power to operate. Typical standby power on the AD9983A is about 50 mW. There are two options that can be selected when in powerdown. These are controlled by Bit 0 and Bit 1 in Register 0x1E. Bit 0 controls whether the SOGOUT pin is in high impedance or not. In most cases, the user will not place SOGOUT in high impedance during normal operation. The option to put SOGOUT in high impedance is included mainly to allow for factory testing modes. Bit 1 keeps the AD9983A powered up while placing only the outputs in high impedance. This option is useful when the data outputs from two chips are connected on a PCB and the user wants to switch instantaneously between the two. Table 11.

The output data clock signal is created so that its rising edge always occurs between data transitions and can be used to latch the output data externally. There is a pipeline in the AD9983A, which must be flushed before valid data becomes available. This means six data sets are presented before valid data is available. tPER tDCYCLE DATACK tSKEW 06475-007 DATA HSOUT Figure 14. Output Timing Rev.

Double Data Rate (DDR) Timing Mode HSYNC TIMING The Hsync is processed in the AD9983A to eliminate ambiguity in the timing of the leading edge with respect to the phasedelayed pixel clock and data. The Hsync input is used as a reference to generate the pixel sampling clock. The sampling phase can be adjusted with respect to Hsync through a full 360° in 32 steps via the phase adjust register (to optimize the pixel sampling time). Display systems use Hsync to align memory and display write cycles, so it is important to have a stable timing relationship between Hsync output (HSOUT) and the data clock (DATACK). Three things happen to Hsync in the AD9983A. First, the polarity of Hsync input is determined and thus has a known output polarity. The known output polarity can be programmed either active high or active low (Register 0x12, Bit 3). Second, HSOUT is aligned with DATACK and data outputs. Third, the duration of HSOUT (in pixel clocks) is set via Register 0x13. HSOUT is the sync signal that should be used to drive the rest of the display system. Rev. PrA | Page 20 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A COAST TIMING OUTPUT FORMATTER In most computer systems, the Hsync signal is provided continuously on a dedicated wire. In these systems, the coast input and function are unnecessary and should not be used. The output formatter is capable of generating several output formats to be presented to the 24 data output pins. The output formats and the pin assignments for each format are listed in Table 12. Also, there are several clock options for the output clock. The user may select the pixel clock, a 90° phase-shifted pixel clock, a 2× pixel clock, or a fixed frequency 40 MHz clock for test purposes. The output clock may also be inverted. In some systems, however, Hsync is disturbed during the vertical sync period (Vsync). In some cases, Hsync pulses disappear. In other systems, such as those that employ composite sync (Csync) signals or embedded sync-on-green, Hsync may include equalization pulses or other distortions during Vsync. To avoid upsetting the clock generator during Vsync, it is important to ignore these distortions. If the pixel clock PLL sees extraneous pulses, it attempts to lock to this new frequency, and will have changed frequency by the end of the Vsync period. It then takes a few lines of correct Hsync timing to recover at the beginning of a new frame, resulting in a tearing of the image at the top of the display. Data output is available as 24-pin RGB or YCbCr, or if either 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 DDR is selected, a secondary channel is available. This secondary channel is always 4:2:2 DDR and allows the flexibility of having a second channel with the same video data that can be utilized by either another display or even a storage device. Depending on the choice of output modes, the primary output can be 24 pins, 16 pins, or as little as 12 pins. Mode Descriptions The COAST input is provided to eliminate this problem. It is an asynchronous input that disables the PLL input and holds the clock at its current frequency. The PLL can free run for several lines without significant frequency drift. Coast can be generated internally by the AD9983A (see Register 0x18) or can be provided externally by the graphics controller. 4:4:4 When internal coast is selected (Register 0x18, Bit 7 = 0, and Register 0x14, Bits[7:6] to select source), Vsync is used as a basis for determining the position of COAST. The internal coast signal is enabled a programmed number of Hsync periods before the periodic Vsync signal (Precoast Register 0x16) and dropped a programmed number of Hsync periods after Vsync (Postcoast Register 0x17). It is recommended that the Vsync filter be enabled when using the internal coast function to allow the AD9983A to determine precisely the number of Hsyncs/Vsync and their location. In many applications where disruptions occur and coast is used, values of 2 for Precoast and 10d for Postcoast are sufficient to avoid most extraneous pulses. Red and green channels contain 4:2:2 formatted data (16 pins) with Y data on the green channel and Cb, Cr data on the red channel. Data is aligned to the negative edge of the clock. The blue channel contains the secondary channel with Cb, Y, Cr, Y formatted 4:2:2 DDR data. The data edges are aligned to both edges of the pixel clock, so use of the 90° clock may be necessary to capture the DDR data. All channels come out with their 8 data bits at the same time. Data is aligned to the negative edge of the clock for easy capture. This is the normal 24-bit output mode for RGB or 4:4:4 YCbCr. 4:2:2 4:4:4 DDR This mode puts out full 4:4:4 data on 12 bits of the red and green channels, thus saving 12 pins. The first half (RGB[11:0]) of the 24-bit data is sent on the rising edge and the second half (RGB[23:12]) is sent on the falling edge. DDR 4:2:2 data is sent on the blue channel, as in 4:2:2 mode. RGB [23:0] = R [7:0] + G [7:0] + B [7:0], so RGB [23:12] = R [7:0] + G [7:4] and RGB [11:0] = G [3:0] + B [7:0] Table 12.

PrA | Page 21 of 44 1 0 AD9983A Preliminary Technical Data 2-WIRE SERIAL CONTROL PORT A 2-wire serial interface control interface is provided. Up to two AD9983A devices may be connected to the 2-wire serial interface, with each device having a unique address. The 2-wire serial interface comprises a clock (SCL) and a bidirectional data (SDA) pin. The analog flat panel interface acts as a slave for receiving and transmitting data over the serial interface. When the serial interface is not active, the logic levels on SCL and SDA are pulled high by external pull-up resistors. Data received or transmitted on the SDA line must be stable for the duration of the positive-going SCL pulse. Data on SDA must change only when SCL is low. If SDA changes state while SCL is high, the serial interface interprets that action as a start or stop sequence. The following are the five components to serial bus operation: • Start signal • Slave address byte • Base register address byte • Data byte to read or write • Stop signal When the serial interface is inactive (SCL and SDA are high), communications are initiated by sending a start signal. The start signal is a high-to-low transition on SDA while SCL is high. This signal alerts all slaved devices that a data transfer sequence is coming. The first 8 bits of data transferred after a start signal comprise a 7-bit slave address (the first 7 bits) and a single R/W bit (the eighth bit). The R/W bit indicates the direction of data transfer, read from 1 or write to 0 on the slave device. If the transmitted slave address matches the address of the device, the AD9983A acknowledges the match by bringing SDA low on the ninth SCL pulse. If the addresses do not match, the AD9983A does not acknowledge it. Table 13. Serial Port Addresses Bit 7 A6 (MSB) 1 1 Bit 6 A5 0 0 Bit 5 A4 0 0 Bit 4 A3 1 1 Bit 3 A2 1 1 Bit 2 A1 0 0 Bit 1 A0 0 1 DATA TRANSFER VIA SERIAL INTERFACE For each byte of data read or written, the MSB is the first bit in the sequence. If the AD9983A does not acknowledge the master device during a write sequence, the SDA remains high so the master can generate a stop signal. If the master device does not acknowledge the AD9983A during a read sequence, the AD9983A interprets this as end of data. The SDA remains high so the master can generate a stop signal. Writing data to specific control registers of the AD9983A requires writing to the 8-bit address of the control register of interest after the slave address has been established. This control register address is the base address for subsequent write operations. The base address auto-increments by one for each byte of data written after the data byte intended for the base address. If more bytes are transferred than there are available addresses, the address does not increment and remains at its maximum value of 0x2E. Any base address higher than 0x2E will not produce an acknowledge signal. Data are read from the control registers of the AD9983A in a similar manner. Reading requires two data transfer operations: The base address must be written with the R/W bit of the slave address byte low to set up a sequential read operation. Reading (the R/W bit of the slave address byte high) begins at the previously established base address. The address of the read register auto-increments after each byte is transferred. To terminate a read/write sequence to the AD9983A, a stop signal must be sent. A stop signal comprises a low-to-high transition of SDA while SCL is high. A repeated start signal occurs when the master device driving the serial interface generates a start signal without first generating a stop signal to terminate the current communication. This is used to change the mode of communication (read, write) between the slave and master without releasing the serial interface lines.

VCO Ranges 0x00—Bits[7:0] Chip Revision 0x01—Bits[7:0] PLL Divide Ratio MSBs VCO Range 00 01 10 11 The 8 MSBs of the 12-bit PLL divide ratio PLLDIV. 0x03—Bits[5:3] Charge Pump Current The PLL derives a pixel clock from the incoming Hsync signal. The pixel clock frequency is then divided by an integer value, such that the output is phase-locked to Hsync. This PLLDIV value determines the number of pixel times (pixels plus horizontal blanking overhead) per line. This is typically 20% to 30% more than the number of active pixels in the display. Three bits that establish the current driving the loop filter in the clock generator. The current must be set to correspond with the desired operating frequency. The power-up default value is current = 001. An 8-bit register that represents the silicon revision. PLL DIVIDER CONTROL The 12-bit value of the PLL divider supports divide ratios from 2 to 4095 as long as the output frequency is within range. The higher the value loaded in this register, the higher the resulting clock frequency with respect to a fixed Hsync frequency. VESA has established some standard timing specifications, which will assist in determining the value for PLLDIV as a function of horizontal and vertical display resolution and frame rate (see Table 10). However, many computer systems do not conform precisely to the recommendations and these numbers should be used only as a guide. The display system manufacturer should provide automatic or manual means for optimizing PLLDIV. An incorrectly set PLLDIV usually produces one or more vertical noise bars on the display. The greater the error, the greater the number of bars produced. The power-up default value of PLLDIV is 1693. PLLDIVM = 0x69, PLLDIVL = 0xDX. The AD9983A updates the full divide ratio only when the LSBs are written. Writing to this register by itself does not trigger an update. 0x02—Bits[7:4] PLL Divide Ratio LSBs The 4 LSBs of the 12-bit PLL divide ratio PLLDIV.

The power-up default value of PLLDIV is 1693. PLLDIVM = 0x69, PLLDIVL = 0xDX. PHASE ADJUST CLOCK GENERATOR CONTROL Phase adjustment for the DLL to generate the ADC clock.

The power up default is 16. 0x04—Bits[7:3] 0x03—Bits[7:6] VCO Range Select Two bits that establish the operating range of the clock generator. VCO range must be set to correspond to the desired operating frequency (incoming pixel rate). The PLL gives the best jitter performance at high frequencies. For this reason, in order to output low pixel rates and still get good jitter performance, the PLL actually operates at a higher frequency but then divides down the clock rate afterwards. See Table 15 for the pixel rates for each VCO range setting. The PLL output divisor is automatically selected with the VCO range setting. The power-up default value is 01. Rev. PrA | Page 30 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A INPUT GAIN 0x0E—Bit[7] Green Channel Offset LSB 0x05—Bits[6:0] Red Channel Gain Adjust The LSB of the green channel offset control combines with the 8 bits of MSBs in the previous register to make 9 bits of offset control. The 7-Bit Red Channel Gain Control. The AD9983A can accommodate input signals with a full-scale range of between 0.5 V and 1.0 V p-p. Setting the red gain to 127 corresponds to an input range of 1.0 V. A red gain of 0 establishes an input range of 0.5 V. Note that increasing red gain results in the picture having less contrast (the input signal uses fewer of the available converter codes). Values written to this register do not update until the following register (Register 0x06) has been written to 0x00. The power-up default is 100 0000. 0x07—Bits[6:0] Green Channel Gain Adjust The 7-Bit Green Channel Gain Control. See red channel gain adjust above. Register update requires writing 0x00 to Register 0x08. 0x0F—Bits[7:0] Blue Channel Offset The 8-Bit Blue Channel Offset Control. See 0x0B—Bits[7:0] Red Channel Offset. Update of this register occurs only when Register 0x10 is also written. 0x10—Bit[7] Blue Channel Offset LSB The LSB of the blue channel offset control combines with the 8 bits of MSB in the previous register to make 9 bits of offset control. HSYNC CONTROLS 0x11—Bits[7:0] Sync Separator Threshold 0x09—Bits[6:0] Blue Channel Gain Adjust The 7-Bit Blue Channel Gain Control. See red channel gain adjust above. Register update requires writing 0x00 to Register 0x0A. INPUT OFFSET 0x0B—Bits[7:0] Red Channel Offset The 8-Bit MSB of the Red Channel Offset Control. Along with the LSB in the following register, there are 9 bits of dc offset control in the red channel. The offset control shifts the analog input, resulting in a change in brightness. Note that the function of the offset register depends on whether auto-offset is enabled (Register 0x1B, Bit 5). This register sets the threshold of the sync separator’s digital comparator. The value written to this register is multiplied by 200 ns to get the threshold value. Therefore, if a value of 5 is written, the digital comparator threshold is 1 μs and any pulses less than 1 μs are rejected by the sync separator. There is some variability to the 200 ns multiplier value. The maximum variability over all operating conditions is ±20% (160 ns to 240 ns). Since normal Vsync and Hsync pulse widths differ by a factor of about 500 or more, the 20% variability is not an issue. The power-up default value is 32 DDR. 0x12—Bit[7] Hsync Source Override If auto-offset is disabled, the lower 7 bits of the offset registers (for the red channel Register 0x0B, Bits [5:0] plus Register 0x0C, Bit 7) control the absolute offset added to the channel. The offset control provides a ±63 LSBs of adjustment range, with 1 LSB of offset corresponding to 1 LSB of output code. This is the active Hsync override. Setting this to 0 allows the chip to determine the active Hsync source. Setting it to 1 uses Bit 6 of Register 0x12 to determine the active Hsync source. Power-up default value is 0. If auto-offset is enabled, the 9-bit offset (comprised of the 8 bits of the MSB register and Bit 7 of the following register) determines the clamp target code. The 9-bit offset consists of 1 sign bit plus 8 bits. If the register is programmed to 130d, then the output code is equal to 130d at the end of the clamp period. Incrementing the offset register setting by 1 LSB adds 1 LSB of offset, regardless of the auto-offset setting. Values written to this register are not updated until the LSB register (Register 0x0C) has also been written.

This triggers the trailing edge of the Hsync output, which is also phase-adjusted. This bit sets the polarity of the Vsync output. Setting this bit to 0 sets the Vsync output to active low.

Auto-Offset Settings An 8-bit register that sets the position of the internally generated clamp. When EXTCLMP = 0 (Register 0x18, Bit 4), a clamp signal is generated internally, at a position established by the clamp placement register (Register 0x19) and for a duration set by the clamp duration register (Register 0x1A). Clamping is started a clamp placement count(Register 0x19) of pixel periods after the trailing edge of Hsync. The clamp placement may be programmed to any value between 1 and 255. A value of 0 is not supported. Auto-Offset 0 1 The clamp should be placed during a time that the input signal presents a stable black-level reference, usually the back porch period between Hsync and the image.

When EXTCLMP = 0 (Register 0x18, Bit 4), a clamp signal is generated internally at a position established by the clamp placement register (and for a duration set by the clamp duration register). Clamping begins a clamp placement count (Register 0x19) of pixel periods after the trailing edge of Hsync. The clamp duration may be programmed to any value between 1 and 255. A value of 0 is not supported. For the best results, the clamp duration should be set to include the majority of the black reference signal time that follows the Hsync signal trailing edge.

Input Bandwidth Select. Result Low analog input bandwidth High analog input bandwidth This bit determines whether power-down is controlled manually or automatically by the chip. If automatic control is selected (Register 0x1E, Bit 4), the AD9983A decision is based on the status of the sync detect bits (Register 0x24, Bit 2, Bit 3, Bit 6, and Bit 7). If either an Hsync or a sync-on-green input is detected on any input, the chip powers up or powers down. For manual control, the AD9983A allows the flexibility of control through both a dedicated pin and a register bit. The dedicated pin allows a hardware watchdog circuit to control power-down, while the register bit allows power-down to be controlled by software. With manual power-down control, the polarity of the power-down pin must be set (Register 0x1E, Bit 2) whether it is used or not. If unused, it is recommended to set the polarity to active high and hardwire the pin to ground with a 10 kΩ resistor. 0x1E—Bit[2] Power-Down Pin Polarity This bit defines the polarity of the power-down pin (Pin 17).

Continuous updates are recommended because this allows the AD9983A to compensate for drift over time and temperature.

PrA | Page 39 of 44 Result Auto gain matching disabled Auto gain matching enabled AD9983A Preliminary Technical Data PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS The AD9983A is a high precision, high speed analog device. To achieve the maximum performance from the part, it is important to have a well laid-out board. The Analog Interface Inputs section provides a guide for designing a board using the AD9983A. ANALOG INTERFACE INPUTS Using the following layout techniques on the graphics inputs is extremely important: • Minimize the trace length running into the graphics inputs. This is accomplished by placing the AD9983A as close as possible to the graphics VGA connector. Long input trace lengths are undesirable because they pick up noise from the board and other external sources. • Place the 75 Ω termination resistors (see Figure 4) as close as possible to the AD9983A chip. Any additional trace length between the termination resistors and the input of the AD9983A increases the magnitude of reflections, which corrupts the graphics signal. • Use 75 Ω matched impedance traces. Trace impedances other than 75 Ω also increase the chance of reflections. • The AD9983A has a very high input bandwidth, (200 MHz). While this is desirable for acquiring a high resolution PC graphics signal with fast edges, it also means that it captures any high frequency noise present. Therefore, it is important to reduce the amount of noise coupled to the inputs. Avoid running any digital traces near the analog inputs. • Due to the high bandwidth of the AD9983A, sometimes low-pass filtering the analog inputs can help to reduce noise. (For many applications, filtering is unnecessary.) Experiments have shown that placing a ferrite bead in series prior to the 75 Ω termination resistor is helpful in filtering excess noise. Specifically, the Fair-Rite #2508051217Z0 was used, but an application could work best with a different bead value. Alternatively, placing a 100 Ω to 120 Ω resistor between the 75 Ω termination resistor and the input coupling capacitor is beneficial. Power Supply Bypassing It is recommended to bypass each power supply pin with a 0.1 μF capacitor. The exception is where two or more supply pins are adjacent to each other. For these groupings of powers/grounds, it is only necessary to have one bypass capacitor. The fundamental idea is to have a bypass capacitor within about 0.5 cm of each power pin. Also, avoid placing the capacitor on the opposite side of the PC board from the AD9983A, since that interposes resistive vias in the path. The bypass capacitors should be physically located between the power plane and the power pin. Current should flow from the power plane to the capacitor to the power pin. Do not make the power connection between the capacitor and the power pin. Placing a via underneath the capacitor pads, down to the power plane, is generally the best approach. It is particularly important to maintain low noise and good stability of the PVD (the clock generator supply). Abrupt changes in PVD can result in similarly abrupt changes in sampling clock phase and frequency. This can be avoided with careful attention to regulation, filtering, and bypassing. It is highly desirable to provide separate regulated supplies for each of the analog circuitry groups (VD and PVD). Some graphic controllers use substantially different levels of power when active (during active picture time) and when idle (during horizontal and vertical sync periods). This can result in a measurable change in the voltage supplied to the analog supply regulator, which can in turn produce changes in the regulated analog supply voltage. This can be mitigated by regulating the analog supply, or at least PVD, from a different, cleaner, power source (for example, from a 12 V supply). It is also recommended to use a single ground plane for the entire board. Experience has repeatedly shown that the noise performance is the same or better with a single ground plane. Using multiple ground planes can be detrimental because each separate ground plane is smaller and long ground loops can result. In some cases, using separate ground planes is unavoidable. For those cases, it is recommended to at least place a single ground plane under the AD9983A. The location of the split should be at the receiver of the digital outputs. In this case it is even more important to place components wisely because the current loops will be much longer, (current takes the path of least resistance). An example of a current loop is power plane to AD9983A to digital output trace to digital data receiver to digital ground plane to analog ground plane. PLL Place the PLL loop filter components as close to the FILT pin as possible. Do not place any digital or other high frequency traces near these components. Use the values suggested in the datasheet with 10% tolerances or less. Rev. PrA | Page 40 of 44 Preliminary Technical Data AD9983A OUTPUTS (BOTH DATA AND CLOCKS) DIGITAL INPUTS Try to minimize the trace length that the digital outputs have to drive. Longer traces have higher capacitance and require more instantaneous current to drive, which creates more internal digital noise. Shorter traces reduce the possibility of reflections. Digital inputs on the AD9983A (HSYNC0, HSYNC1, VSYNC0, VSYNC1, SOGIN0, SOGIN1, SDA, SCL, and CLAMP) are designed to work with 3.3 V signals, but are tolerant of 5.0 V signals. Therefore, no extra components need to be added if using 5.0 V logic. Adding a series resistor of value 50 Ω to 200 Ω can suppress reflections, reduce EMI, and reduce the current spikes inside of the AD9983A. If series resistors are used, place them as close to the AD9983A pins as possible, but try not to add vias or extra length to the output trace to get the resistors closer. If possible, limit the capacitance that each digital output drives to less than 10 pF. This is easily accomplished by keeping traces short and by connecting the outputs to only one device. Loading the outputs with excessive capacitance increases the current transients inside of the AD9983A and creates more digital noise on its power supplies. Any noise that gets onto the Hsync input trace adds jitter to the system. Therefore, minimize the trace length and do not run any digital or other high frequency traces near it. Reference Bypass The AD9983A has three reference voltages that must be bypassed for proper operation of the input PGA. REFLO and REFHI are connected to each other through a 10 μF capacitor. These references are used by the input PGA circuitry to assure the greatest stability. Place them as close to the AD9983A pin as possible. Make the ground connection as short as possible. Rev.
