GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD9218 is a dual 10-bit monolithic sampling analog-todigital converter with on-chip track-and-hold circuits and is
optimized for low cost, low power, small size and ease of use.
The product operates at a 105 MSPS conversion rate with
outstanding dynamic performance over its full operating range.
Each channel can be operated independently.
Low Power—Just 275 mW power dissipation per channel at
105 MSPS. Other speed grade proportionally scaled down while
maintaining high ac performance.
The ADC requires only a single 3.0 V (2.7 V to 3.6 V) power
supply and an encode clock for full operation. No external
reference or driver components are required for many applications. The digital outputs are TTL/CMOS-compatible and a
separate output power supply pin supports interfacing with
3.3 V or 2.5 V logic.
Pin Compatibility Upgrade—Allows easy migration from 8-bit
to 10-bit. Pin-compatible with the 8-bit AD9288 dual ADC.
Ease of Use—On-chip reference and user controls provide flexibility in system design.
High Performance—Maintain 54 dB SNR at 105 MSPS with a
Nyquist input.
Channel Crosstalk—Very low at –75 dBc.
The clock input is TTL/CMOS-compatible and the 10-bit
digital outputs can be operated from 3.0 V (2.5 V to 3.6 V)
supplies. User-selectable options are available to offer a combination of power-down modes, digital data formats and digital
data timing schemes. In power-down mode, the digital outputs
are driven to a high-impedance state.
Fabricated on an advanced CMOS process, the AD9218 is
available in a 48-lead surface-mount plastic package (7 × 7 mm
LQFP) specified over the industrial temperature range (–40°C
to +85°C).

NOTES
1
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions outside of those indicated in the operation
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings
for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2
Measured on a four-layer board with solid ground plane.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD9218 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

TERMINOLOGY
Analog Bandwidth
Harmonic Distortion, Second
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the
second harmonic component, reported in dBc.
The analog input frequency at which the spectral power of the
fundamental frequency (as determined by the FFT analysis) is
reduced by 3 dB.
Harmonic Distortion, Third
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the
third harmonic component, reported in dBc.
Aperture Delay
The delay between the 50% point of the rising edge of the
ENCODE command and the instant at which the analog input
is sampled.
Integral Nonlinearity
Aperture Uncertainty (Jitter)
The deviation of the transfer function from a reference line
measured in fractions of 1 LSB using a “best straight line”
determined by a least square curve fit.
The sample-to-sample variation in aperture delay.
Minimum Conversion Rate
Crosstalk
The encode rate at which the SNR of the lowest analog signal
frequency drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit.
Coupling onto one channel being driven by a low level (–40 dBFS)
signal when the adjacent interfering channel is driven by a
full-scale signal.
Maximum Conversion Rate
The encode rate at which parametric testing is performed.
Differential Analog Input Resistance, Differential Analog
Input Capacitance and Differential Analog Input Impedance
Output Propagation Delay
The delay between a differential crossing of ENCODE and
ENCODE and the time when all output data bits are within
valid logic levels.
The real and complex impedances measured at each analog
input port. The resistance is measured statically and the capacitance and differential input impedances are measured with a
network analyzer.

The peak-to-peak differential voltage that must be applied to
the converter to generate a full-scale response. Peak differential
voltage is computed by observing the voltage on a single pin
and subtracting the voltage from the other pin, which is 180
degrees out of phase. Peak-to-peak differential is computed by
rotating the inputs phase 180 degrees and again taking the peak
measurement. The difference is then computed between both
peak measurements.
Where Z is the input impedance, FS is the full scale of the
device for the frequency in question, SNR is the value for the
particular input level, and Signal is the signal level within the
ADC reported in dB below full scale. This value includes both
thermal and quantization noise.
Differential Nonlinearity
The deviation of any code width from an ideal 1 LSB step.
The ratio of a change in input offset voltage to a change in
power supply voltage.
Effective Number of Bits
Signal-to-Noise-and-Distortion (SINAD)
The effective number of bits (ENOB) is calculated from the
measured SNR based on the equation:
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set 1 dB below full scale)
to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components,
including harmonics but excluding dc.

Signal-to-Noise Ratio (without Harmonics)
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set at 1 dB below full
scale) to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components, excluding the first five harmonics and dc.
ENCODE Pulsewidth/Duty Cycle
Pulsewidth high is the minimum amount of time that the
ENCODE pulse should be left in Logic 1 state to achieve rated
performance; pulsewidth low is the minimum time ENCODE
pulse should be left in low state. See timing implications of
changing tENCH in text. At a given clock rate, these specifications define an acceptable ENCODE duty cycle.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
Full-Scale Input Power
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the
peak spurious spectral component. The peak spurious component may or may not be a harmonic. May be reported in dBc
(i.e., degrades as signal level is lowered), or dBFS (always
related back to converter full scale).

AD9218
THEORY OF OPERATION
500⍀
The AD9218 ADC architecture is a bit-per-stage pipeline-type
converter utilizing switch capacitor techniques. These stages
determine the 7 MSBs and drive a 3-bit flash. Each stage provides
sufficient overlap and error correction allowing optimization of
comparator accuracy. The input buffers are differential, and both
sets of inputs are internally biased. This allows the most flexible
use of ac-coupled or dc-coupled and differential or single-ended
input modes. The output staging block aligns the data, carries
out the error correction, and feeds the data to output buffers.
The set of output buffers are powered from a separate supply,
allowing adjustment of the output voltage swing. There is no
discernible difference in performance between the two channels.
USING THE AD9218
ENCODE Input
Any high-speed A/D converter is extremely sensitive to the
quality of the sampling clock provided by the user. A Track/
Hold circuit is essentially a mixer. Any noise, distortion, or
timing jitter on the clock will be combined with the desired
signal at the A/D output. For that reason, considerable care has
been taken in the design of the ENCODE input of the AD9218,
and the user is advised to give commensurate thought to the clock
source. The ENCODE input is fully TTL/CMOS-compatible.
Analog Input
The analog input to the AD9218 is a differential buffer. For
best dynamic performance, impedance at AIN and AIN should
match. Special care was taken in the design of the analog input
section of the AD9218 to prevent damage and corruption of
data when the input is overdriven. The nominal input range is
1.024 V p-p. Optimum performance is obtained when the part is
driven differentially where common mode noise is minimized
and even order harmonics are reduced. An example of driving
the AD9218 differentially via a wideband RF transformer for
ac-coupled applications is shown in Figure 12. Applications
that require dc-coupled differential drive can be accommodated using the AD8138 differential output op amp, shown
in Figure 13.

Figure 13. Using the AD8138 to Drive the AD9218
Voltage Reference
A stable and accurate 1.25 V voltage reference is built into the
AD9218 (VREF OUT). In normal operation, the internal reference is used by strapping Pin 5 (REFINA) and Pin 7 (REFINB)
to Pin 6 (REFOUT). The input range for each channel can be
adjusted independently by varying the reference voltage inputs
applied to the AD9218. No appreciable degradation in performance occurs when the reference is adjusted ± 5%. The
full-scale range of the ADC tracks reference voltage, which
changes linearly.
The minimum guaranteed conversion rate of the AD9218 is
20 MSPS. At clock rates below 20 MSPS, dynamic performance
will degrade.
User Select Options
Two pins are available for a combination of operational modes.
These options allow the user to power-down both channels,
excluding the reference, or just the B channel. Both modes place
the output buffers in a high impedance state. Recovery from a
power-down state is accomplished in 10 clock cycles following
power-on.
The other option allows the user to skew the B Channel output
data by one-half a clock cycle. In other words, if two clocks are
fed to the AD9218 and are 180 degrees out of phase, enabling
the data align will allow Channel B output data to be available
at the rising edge of Clock A. If the same encode clock is provided to both channels and the data align pin is enabled, output
data from Channel B will be 180 degrees out of phase with
respect to Channel A. If the same encode clock is provided to
both channels and the data align pin is disabled, both outputs are
delivered on the same rising edge of the clock.

The AD9218 provides latched data outputs, with five pipeline
delays. Data outputs are available one propagation delay (tPD)
after the rising edge of the encode command (see Timing Diagram). The length of the output data lines and loads placed
on them should be minimized to reduce transients within the
AD9218. These transients can detract from the converter’s
dynamic performance.
The digital outputs are TTL/CMOS-compatible for lower
power consumption. During power-down, the output buffers
transition to a high impedance state. A data format selection
option supports either two’s complement (set high) or offset
binary output (set low) formats.

wideband RF transformer T1, T2, allowing the ADC performance
for differential inputs to be measured using a single-ended source.
In this mode resistors R35, R33, R39, and R32 should not be in
place. Each analog input is terminated on the board with 50 Ω to
ground. Each input is ac-coupled on the board through a 0.1 µF
capacitor to an on-chip resistor divider that provides dc bias.
Single-ended performance can be measured by bypassing the
transformers using connectors SMB J5 (Channel A) and J1
(Channel B). In this mode, place a 0 Ω resistor at R35 and R33
(A Channel) and place R39 and R32 (B Channel). Note that the
inverting analog inputs are terminated on the board with 25 Ω
(optimized for differential operation). When driving the board
single-ended these resistors (R1, R3) can be changed to 50 Ω to
provide balanced inputs. The operational amplifier can be
used by connecting to J5 (Channel A) and J1 (Channel B).
The ac-coupling capacitors on the top level should be removed
from the board to use the operational amplifier. The components to use the op amp should be placed on the bottom of the
board. See PCB Bill of Materials list for values.
APPLICATIONS
The wide analog bandwidth of the AD9218 makes it attractive
for a variety of high-performance receiver and encoder applications. Figure 14 shows the dual ADC in a typical low cost
I and Q demodulator implementation for cable, satellite, or
wireless LAN modem receivers. The excellent dynamic performance of the ADC at higher analog input frequencies and
encode rates empowers users to employ direct IF sampling
techniques. IF sampling eliminates or simplifies analog mixer
and filter stages to reduce total system cost and power.

EVALUATION BOARD
The AD9218 evaluation board offers an easy way to test the
AD9218. It provides a means to drive the analog inputs singleendedly or differentially. Differential drive can be tested through
a wideband RF transformer or a differential output operational
amplifier, the AD8138. The two encode clocks are accessible via
on-board SMB connectors J2, J7. These clocks are buffered
on board to provide the clocks for an on-board DAC and latches.
The digital outputs and output clocks are available at two 40-pin
connectors, P3 and P4. The board has several different modes
of operation, and is shipped in the following configuration:
The encode clock for Channel A uses SMB connector J7.
Channel B encode uses SMB connector J2. Each clock input is
terminated on the board with 50 Ω to ground. The input clocks
are fed directly to the ADC and to buffers U5, U6, which drive
the DAC and latches. The clock inputs are TTL-compatible.
Voltage Reference
The AD9218 has an internal 1.25 V voltage reference. An external reference for each channel may be employed instead. The
evaluation board is configured for the internal reference (use
jumpers E18–E1 and E17–E19). To use external references,
connect to VREFA and VREFB pins on the power connector P1
and use jumpers E20–E18 and E19–E21.
Normal Operation Mode
• Differential Analog Input (RF Transformer Mode)
Power Connector
In this mode both converters are clocked by the same encode
clock, latency is five clock cycles (see Timing Diagram). Signal
S1 (Pin 8) is held high and signal S2 (Pin 9) is held low. This is
set with the jumpers labeled S1 and S2 (near the analog input).
Power is supplied to the board via a detachable 12-pin power strip.

In this mode channel B output is delayed an additional one-half
cycle. Signals S1 (Pin 8) and signal S2 (Pin 9) are both held
high. This is set with the jumpers labeled S1 and S2 (near the
analog input).

• Internal Voltage Reference
Data Format Select
Analog Inputs
The evaluation board accepts a 1 V analog input signal centered
at ground at each analog input. SMB connectors J4 and J6 are
used for AIN and BIN respectively. These signals each drive a
Data Format Select sets the output data format and the gain of
the ADC. Setting DFS (Pin 4) low sets the output format to be
offset binary and gain of 1; setting DFS high sets the output to
be two’s complement and gain of 1. Removing the jumper for
DFS sets the output data format to offset binary and a gain of 2;
setting DFS to the middle selection sets the output data format
to two’s complement and a gain of 2.

Data Outputs
DAC Outputs
The ADC digital outputs are latched on the board by two
LCX821s, the latch outputs are available at the two 40-pin
connectors at Pins 23–33 on P3 (Channel A) and Pins 23–33 on
P4 (Channel B). The latch output clocks (data ready) are available at Pin 4 on P3 (Channel A) and Pin 4 on P4 (Channel B).
The data ready signal on Channel B can be aligned with Clock
A input by connecting E43–E42 or aligned with Clock B input
by connecting E42–E33.
Each channel is reconstructed by an on-board dual channel DAC,
an AD9763. This DAC is intended to assist in debug only. It
should not be used to measure the performance of the ADC.
It is a current output DAC with on-board 50 Ω termination
resistors. Figure 16 is representative of the DAC output with a
full-scale analog input. The scope setting was low bandwidth,
50 Ω termination.
