(DACs) that provide a sample rate of 125 MSPS. These TxDAC®
converters are optimized for the transmit signal path of communication systems. All the devices share the same interface, LFCSP,
and pinout, providing an upward or downward component
selection path based on performance, resolution, and cost.
APPLICATIONS
1.
Wireless infrastructures
Picocell, femtocell base stations
Medical instrumentation
Ultrasound transducer excitation
Portable instrumentation

3.
Low Power.
DACs operate on a single 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply; total power
consumption reduces to 225 mW at 100 MSPS. Sleep and
power-down modes are provided for low power idle
periods.
CMOS Clock Input.
High speed, single-ended CMOS clock input supports
125 MSPS conversion rate.
Easy Interfacing to Other Components.
Adjustable output common mode from 0 V to 1.2 V allows
for easy interfacing to other components that accept commonmode levels greater than 0 V.

TERMINOLOGY
Linearity Error or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Linearity error is defined as the maximum deviation of the
actual analog output from the ideal output, determined by
a straight line drawn from zero scale to full scale.
Power Supply Rejection
Power supply rejection is the maximum change in the full-scale
output as the supplies are varied from minimum to maximum
specified voltages.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
DNL is the measure of the variation in analog value, normalized
to full scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input code.
Settling Time
Settling time is the time required for the output to reach and
remain within a specified error band around its final value,
measured from the start of the output transition.
Monotonicity
A DAC is monotonic if the output either increases or remains
constant as the digital input increases.
Offset Error
Offset error is the deviation of the output current from the
ideal of zero. For IOUTP, 0 mA output is expected when the
inputs are all 0. For IOUTN, 0 mA output is expected when all
inputs are set to 1.
Gain Error
Gain error is the difference between the actual and ideal output
span. The actual span is determined by the difference between
the output when all inputs are set to 1 and the output when all
inputs are set to 0.
Output Compliance Range
Output compliant range is the range of allowable voltage at
the output of a current-output DAC. Operation beyond the
maximum compliance limits can cause either output stage
saturation or breakdown, resulting in nonlinear performance.
Temperature Drift
Temperature drift is specified as the maximum change from
the ambient value (25°C) to the value at either TMIN or TMAX.
For offset and gain drift, the drift is reported in ppm of fullscale range per degree Celsius (ppm FSR/°C). For reference
drift, the drift is reported in parts per million per degree
Celsius (ppm/°C).
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference, in decibels (dB), between the peak
amplitude of the output signal and the peak spurious signal
between dc and the frequency equal to half the input data rate.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic
components to the rms value of the measured fundamental.
It is expressed as a percentage (%)or in decibels (dB).
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured output signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The value
for SNR is expressed in decibels.
Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR)
ACLR is the ratio in decibels relative to the carrier (dBc)
between the measured power within a channel relative to
its adjacent channel.
Complex Image Rejection
In a traditional two-part upconversion, two images are created
around the second IF frequency. These images have the effect
of wasting transmitter power and system bandwidth. By placing
the real part of a second complex modulator in series with the
first complex modulator, either the upper or lower frequency
image near the second IF can be rejected.

Figure 75. Simplified Block Diagram
Figure 75 shows a simplified block diagram of the AD9114/
AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 that consists of two main DACs,
digital control logic, and a full-scale output current control. The
DAC contains a PMOS current source array capable of providing
a maximum of 20 mA. The array is divided into 31 equal currents
that make up the five most significant bits (MSBs). The next four
bits, or middle bits, consist of 15 equal current sources whose
value is 1/16 of an MSB current source. The remaining LSBs are
binary weighted fractions of the current sources of the middle
bits. Implementing the middle and lower bits with current sources,
instead of an R-2R ladder, enhances its dynamic performance for
multitone or low amplitude signals and helps maintain the high
output impedance of the DAC (that is, >200 MΩ).
All of these current sources are switched to one or the other
of the two output nodes (IOUTP or IOUTN) via PMOS differential
current switches. The switches are based on the architecture
that was pioneered in the AD976x family, with further refinements to reduce distortion contributed by the switching transient.
This switch architecture also reduces various timing errors and
provides matching complementary drive signals to the inputs of
the differential current switches.
The analog and digital sections of the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/
AD9117 have separate power supply inputs (AVDD and DVDD)
that can operate independently over a 1.7 V to 3.5 V range. The
digital section, which is capable of operating at a rate of up to
125 MSPS, consists of edge-triggered latches and segment decoding
logic circuitry. The analog section includes the PMOS current
sources, the associated differential switches, a 1.0 V band gap
voltage reference, and a reference control amplifier.
Each DAC full-scale output current is regulated by the reference
control amplifier and can be set from 4 mA to 20 mA via an external resistor, RSET, connected to its full-scale adjust pin (FSADJ).
The external resistor, in combination with both the reference
control amplifier and voltage reference, VREFIO, sets the reference
current, IREF, which is replicated to the segmented current sources
with the proper scaling factor. The full-scale current, IOUTFS, is
32 × IREF.
Optional on-chip RSET resistors are provided that can be
programmed between an nominal value of 1.5 kΩ to 8.5 kΩ
(4 mA to 20 mA IOUTFS).
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 provide the option of
setting the output common mode to a value other than ACOM
via the output common-mode pin (CMLI). This facilitates directly
interfacing the output of the AD9114/AD9115/ AD9116/AD9117
to components that require common-mode levels greater than 0 V.

AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117
SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE (SPI)
The serial port of the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 is a
flexible, synchronous serial communications port allowing easy
interfacing to many industry-standard microcontrollers and microprocessors. The serial I/O is compatible with most synchronous
transfer formats, including both the Motorola SPI® and Intel®
SSR protocols. The interface allows read/write access to all
registers that configure the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117.
Single or multiple byte transfers are supported, as well as MSB
first or LSB first transfer formats. The serial interface port of the
AD9114/ AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 is configured as a single I/O
pin on the SDIO pin.
GENERAL OPERATION OF THE SERIAL INTERFACE
There are two phases to a communication cycle on the AD9114/
AD9115/AD9116/AD9117. Phase 1 is the instruction cycle, which
is the writing of an instruction byte into the AD9114/AD9115/
AD9116/AD9117, coinciding with the first eight SCLK rising
edges. In Phase 2, the instruction byte provides the serial port
controller of the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 with information regarding the data transfer cycle. The Phase 1 instruction
byte defines whether the upcoming data transfer is a read or write,
the number of bytes in the data transfer, and the starting register
address for the first byte of the data transfer. The first eight SCLK
rising edges of each communication cycle are used to write the
instruction byte into the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117.
A Logic 1 on Pin 35 (RESET/PINMD), followed by a Logic 0,
resets the SPI port timing to the initial state of the instruction
cycle. This is true regardless of the present state of the internal
registers or the other signal levels present at the inputs to the
SPI port. If the SPI port is in the midst of an instruction cycle
or a data transfer cycle, none of the present data is written.
The remaining SCLK edges are for Phase 2 of the communication
cycle. Phase 2 is the actual data transfer between the AD9114/
AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 and the system controller. Phase 2
of the communication cycle is a transfer of one, two, three, or
four data bytes, as determined by the instruction byte. Using
one multibyte transfer is the preferred method. Single byte
data transfers are useful to reduce CPU overhead when register
access requires one byte only. Registers change immediately
upon writing to the last bit of each transfer byte.
INSTRUCTION BYTE
The instruction byte contains the information shown in Table 11.

R/W (Bit 7 of the instruction byte) determines whether a read or a

indicates a read operation. Logic 0 indicates a write operation.
N1 and N0 (Bit 6 and Bit 5 of the instruction byte) determine the
number of bytes to be transferred during the data transfer cycle.
The bit decodes are shown in Table 12.

A4, A3, A2, A1, and A0 (Bit 4, Bit 3, Bit 2, Bit 1, and Bit 0 of the
instruction byte) determine which register is accessed during the
data transfer portion of the communications cycle. For multibyte transfers, this address is the starting byte address. The
remaining register addresses are generated by the AD9114/
AD9115/AD9116/AD9117, based on the LSBFIRST bit
(Register 0x00, Bit 6).
SERIAL INTERFACE PORT PIN DESCRIPTIONS
SCLK—Serial Clock
The serial clock pin is used to synchronize data to and from the
AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 and to run the internal state
machines. The SCLK maximum frequency is 20 MHz. All data
input to the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 is registered on
the rising edge of SCLK. All data is driven out of the AD9114/
AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 on the falling edge of SCLK.
CS—Chip Select
An active low input starts and gates a communication cycle. It
allows more than one device to be used on the same serial communications lines. The SDIO/FORMAT pin reaches a high impedance
state when this input is high. Chip select should stay low during
the entire communication cycle.
SDIO—Serial Data I/O
The SDIO pin is used as a bidirectional data line to transmit
and receive data.

MSB/LSB TRANSFERS
SERIAL PORT OPERATION
The serial port of the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 can
support both most significant bit (MSB) first or least significant
bit (LSB) first data formats. This functionality is controlled by the
LSBFIRST bit (Register 0x00, Bit 6). The default is MSB first
(LSBFIRST = 0).
The serial port configuration of the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/
AD9117 is controlled by Register 0x00. It is important to note
that the configuration changes immediately upon writing to the
last bit of the register. For multibyte transfers, writing to this
register can occur during the middle of the communications
cycle. Care must be taken to compensate for this new configuration for the remaining bytes of the current communications cycle.
When LSBFIRST = 0 (MSB first), the instruction and data bytes
must be written from the most significant bit to the least significant
bit. Multibyte data transfers in MSB first format start with an
instruction byte that includes the register address of the most
significant data byte. Subsequent data bytes should follow in
order from a high address to a low address. In MSB first mode,
the serial port internal byte address generator decrements for
each data byte of the multibyte communications cycle.
When LSBFIRST = 1 (LSB first), the instruction and data bytes
must be written from the least significant bit to the most significant bit. Multibyte data transfers in LSB first format start with
an instruction byte that includes the register address of the least
significant data byte followed by multiple data bytes. The serial
port internal byte address generator increments for each byte
of the multibyte communication cycle.
The serial port controller data address of the AD9114/AD9115/
AD9116/AD9117 decrements from the data address written
toward 0x00 for multibyte I/O operations if the MSB first mode
is active. The serial port controller address increments from the
data address written toward 0x1F for multibyte I/O operations
if the LSB first mode is active.
The same considerations apply to setting the software reset,
RESET (Register 0x00, Bit 5). All registers are set to their default
values except Register 0x00, which remains unchanged.
Use of single-byte transfers or initiating a software reset is
recommended when changing serial port configurations to
prevent unexpected device behavior.
PIN MODE
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 can also be operated
without ever writing to the serial port. With RESET/PINMD
(Pin 35) tied high, the SCLK pin becomes CLKMD to provide
for clock mode control (see the Retimer section), the SDIO
pin becomes FORMAT and selects the input data format, and
the former CS pin serves to power down the device.
Operation is otherwise exactly as defined by the default
register values in Table 14, so external resistors at FSADJI
and FSADJQ are needed to set the DAC currents, and both
DACs are active. This is also a convenient quick checkout mode.
DAC currents can be externally adjusted in pin mode by sourcing
or sinking currents at the FSADJI/AUXI and FASDJQ/AUXQ
pins as desired with the fixed resistors installed. An op amp
output with appropriate series resistance would be one of
many possibilities. This has the same effect as changing the
resistor value. Place at least 10 kΩ resistors in series right at
the DAC to guard against accidental short circuits and noise
modulation. The REFIO pin can be adjusted ±25% in a similar
manner, if desired.

DIGITAL INTERFACE OPERATION
Digital data for the I and Q DACs is supplied over a single
parallel bus (DB[MSB:0]) accompanied by a qualifying clock
(DCLKIO). The I and Q data is provided to the chip in an
interleaved double data rate (DDR) format. The maximum
guaranteed data rate is 250 MSPS with a 125 MHz clock. The
order of data pairing and the sampling edge selection is user
programmable using the IFIRST and IRISING configuration
bits, resulting in four possible timing diagrams. These are
shown in Figure 76, Figure 77, Figure 78, and Figure 79.

Figure 81. Simplified Diagram of AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 Timing
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 have two clock inputs,
DCLKIO and CLKIN. The CLKIN is the analog clock whose
jitter affects DAC performance, and the DCLKIO is a digital
clock, probably from an FPGA that needs to have a fixed
relationship with the input data to ensure that the data is
picked up correctly by the flip-flops on the pads.
Figure 81 is a simplified diagram of the entire data capture
system in the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117. The double
data rate input data, DB[13:0], is latched at the pads/pins either
on the rising edge or the falling edge of the DCLKIO-INT clock, as
determined by IRISING, the SPI bit. IFIRST, the SPI bit, determines which channel data is latched first (that is, I or Q). The
captured data is then retimed to the internal clock (CLKIN-INT)
in the retimer block before being sent to the final analog DAC
core (D-FF (4)), which controls the current steering output
switches. All delay blocks depicted in Figure 81 are noninverting,
and any wires without an explicit delay block can be assumed
to have no delay for the purpose of understanding.
Only one channel is shown in Figure 81 with the DATA pads
(DB[13:0]) serving as double data rate pads for both channels.
The default PINMD and SPI settings are IE = high (closed) and
OE = low (open). These settings are enabled when RESET/PINMD
(Pin 35) is held high. In this mode, the user has to supply both
DCLKIO and CLKIN. In PINMD, it is also recommended that the
DCLKIO and the CLKIN be in-phase for proper functioning of
the DAC, which can easily be ensured by tying the pins together
on the PCB. If the user can access the SPI, settling IE low (that
is, IE is high) causes the CLKIN to be used as the DCLKIO also.
Settling OE high in the SPI allows the user to get a DCLKIO
output from the CLKIN input for use in the user’s PCB system.
It is strongly recommended that IE = OE = high not be used
even though the device may appear to function correctly.
Retimer
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 have an internal data
retimer circuit that compares the CLKIN-INT and DCLKIO-INT
clocks and, depending on their phase relationship, selects a
retimer clock (RETIMER-CLK) to safely transfer data from the
DCLKIO used at the chip’s input interface to the CLKIN used to
clock the analog DAC cores (D-FF (4)).
The retimer selects one of the three phases shown in Figure 82.
The retimer is controlled by the SPI bits is shown in Table 15.

Note that in most cases, more than one retimer phase works,
and in such cases, the retimer arbitrarily picks one phase that
works. The retimer cannot pick the best or safest phase. If the
user has a working knowledge of the exact phase relationship
between DCLKIO and CLKIN (and thus DCLKIO-INT and
CLKIN-INT, because the delay is approximately the same for
both clocks and equal to DELAY1), then the retimer can be
forced to this phase with CLKMODEN = 1 as described in
Table 15 and the following paragraphs.

High indicates the internal data path retimer is searching for clock relationship (DAC is not usable until it is low again).
Changing this bit from 0 to 1 causes the data path retimer circuit to reacquire the clock relationship.

I datapath retimer clock selected output. Valid after searching goes low.
If CLKMODEN = 1, a value written to this register overrides both I and Q automatic retimer values.

When reset is pulsed high and then returns low (the part is in
SPI mode), the retimer runs and automatically selects a suitable
clock phase for the RETIMER-CLK within 128 clock cycles. The
SPI searching bit returns to low, indicating that the retimer has
locked and the part is ready for use. The reacquire bit can be
used to reinitiate phase detection in the I and Q retimers at any
time. CLKMODEQ[1:0] and CLKMODEI[1:0] provide readback
for the values picked by the internal phase detectors in the
retimer (see Table 16).
not tied together (that is, not in phase). Holding SCLK high
causes the internal clock detector to use the phase detector
output to determine which clock to use in the retimer (that is,
select a suitable RETIMER-CLK phase). The action of taking
SCLK high causes the internal phase detector to reexamine the
two clocks, and determine the relative phase. Whenever the
user wants to reevaluate the relative phase of the two clocks the
SCLK pin can be taken low and then high again.
To force the two retimers (I and Q) to pick a particular phase
for the retimer clock (they must both be forced to the same
value), CLKMODEN should be set high and the required
phase value is written into CLKMODEI[1:0]. For example,
if the DCLKIO and the CLKIN are in phase to first order,
the user could safely force the retimers to pick Phase 2 for
the RETIMER-CLK. This forcing function may be useful
for synchronizing multiple devices.
DAC pipeline latency is affected by the phase of the RETIMERCLK that is selected. If latency is critical to the system and needs to
be constant, the retimer should be forced to a particular phase
and not be allowed to automatically select a phase each time.
In pin mode, it is expected that the user tie CLKIN and DCLKIO
together. The device has a small amount of programmable functionality using the now unused SPI pins (SCLK, SDIO, and CS).
If the two chip clocks are tied together, the SCLK pin can be
tied to ground and the chip uses a clock for the retimer that is
180° out of phase with the two input clocks (that is, Phase 2,
which is the safest or best option). The chip has an additional
option in pin mode when the redefined SCLK pin is high. Use
this mode if utilizing pin mode, but CLKIN and DCLKIO are
ESTIMATING THE OVERALL DAC PIPELINE DELAY
Consider the case when DCLKIO = CLKIN (that is, in phase),
and the RETIMER-CLK is forced to Phase 2. Assume that
IRISING is 1 (that is, I data is latched on the rising edge and
Q data on the falling edge). Then the latency to the output for
the I-channel is 3 clock cycles (D-FF (1), D-FF (3), and D-FF (4),
but not D-FF (2) because it is latched on the half clock cycle or
180°). The latency to the output for the Q-channel from the
time the falling edge latches it at the pads in D-FF (0) is 2.5
clock cycles (½ clock cycle to D-FF (1), 1 clock cycle to D-FF
(3), and 1 clock cycle to D-FF (4)). This latency for the AD9114/
AD9115/AD9116/ AD9117 is case specific and needs to be
calculated based on the RETIMER-CLK phase that is automatically selected or manually forced.

AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117
SELF-CALIBRATION
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 have a self-calibration
feature that improves the DNL of the device. Performing a selfcalibration on the device improves device performance in low
frequency applications. The device performance in applications
where the analog output frequencies are above 5 MHz are generally
influenced more by dynamic device behavior than by DNL, and
in these cases, self-calibration is unlikely to produce measurable
benefits. The calibration clock frequency is equal to the DAC
clock divided by the division factor chosen by the DIVSEL value.
Each calibration clock cycle is between 32 and 2048 DAC input
clock cycles, depending on the value of DIVSEL[2:0] (Register
0x0E, Bits[2:0]). The frequency of the calibration clock should
be between 0.5 MHz and 4 MHz for reliable calibrations. Best
results are obtained by setting DIVSEL[2:0] (Register 0x0E,
Bits[2:0]) to produce a calibration clock frequency between
these values. Separate self-calibration hardware is included
for each DAC. The DACs can be self-calibrated individually
or simultaneously.
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 allow reading and
writing of the calibration coefficients. There are 32 coefficients
in total. The read/write feature of the coefficients can be useful
for improving the results of the self-calibration routine by
averaging the results of several self-calibration cycles and
loading the averaged results back into the device.
To read the calibration coefficients, use the following steps:

by setting the CALCLK bit (Register 0x0E, Bit 3).
Select the DAC(s) to self-calibrate by setting either Bit 4
(CALSELI) for the I DAC and/or Bit 5 (CALSELQ) for
the Q DAC in Register 0x0E. Note that each DAC contains
independent calibration hardware so they can be calibrated
simultaneously.
Start self-calibration by setting Bit 4 in Register 0x12. Wait
approximately 300 calibration clock cycles.
Check if the self-calibration has completed by reading
the CALSTATI bit (Bit 6) and CALSTATQ bit (Bit 7) in
Register 0x0F. Logic 1 indicates the calibration has
completed.
When the self-calibration has completed, write 0x00 to
Register 0x12.
Disable the calibration clock by clearing the CALCLK bit
(Register 0x0E, Bit 3).
Select which DAC core to read by setting either Bit 4
(CALSELI) for the I DAC and/or Bit 5 (CALSELQ) for

COARSE GAIN ADJUSTMENT
Option 3
Option 1
Even when the device is in pin mode, full-scale values can be
adjusted by sourcing or sinking current from the FSADJ pins.
Any noise injected here appears as amplitude modulation of the
output. Thus, a portion of the required series resistance (at least
20 kΩ) must be installed right at the pin. A range of ±10% is
quite practical using this method.
A coarse full-scale output current adjustment can be achieved
using the lower six bits in Register 0x0D. This adds or subtracts
up to 20% from the band gap voltage on Pin 34 (REFIO), and
the voltage on the FSADJx resistors tracks this change. As a result,
the DAC full-scale current varies the same amount. A secondary effect to changing the REFIO voltage is that the full-scale
voltage in the AUXDAC also changes by the same magnitude.
The register uses twos complement format, in which 011111
maximizes the voltage on the REFIO node and 100000 minimizes
the voltage.
1.30
As in Option 3, when the device is in pin mode both full-scale
values can be adjusted by sourcing or sinking current from the
REFIO pin. Noise injected here appears as amplitude modulation
of the output, so a portion of the required series resistance (at
least 10 kΩ) must be installed at the pin. A range of ±25% is
quite practical when using this method.

Fine Gain
1.15
Each main DAC has independent fine gain control using the
lower six bits in Register 0x03 (I DAC gain) and Register 0x06
(Q DAC gain). Unlike Coarse Gain Option 1, this impacts only
the main DAC full-scale output current. This register uses straight
binary format. One application where straight binary format is
critical is for side-band suppression while using a quadrature
modulator. This is described in more detail in the Applications
Information section.

Using the CMLx Pins for Optimal Performance
The CMLx pins also serve to change the DAC bias voltages in
the parts allowing them to run at higher dc output bias voltages.
When running the bias voltage below 0.9 V and an AVDD of
3.3 V, the parts perform optimally when the CMLx pins are tied
to ground. When the dc bias increases above 0.9 V, set the CMLx
pins at 0.5 V for optimal performance. The maximum dc bias
on the DAC output should be kept at or below 1.2 V when the
supply is 3.3 V. When the supply is 1.8 V, keep the dc bias close
to 0 V and connect the CMLx pins directly to ground.

RESISTANCE (Ω)
The AD9117/AD9116/AD9115/AD9114 have four 62.5 Ω
termination internal resistors (two for each DAC output).
To use these resistors to convert the DAC output current to a
voltage, connect each DAC output pin to the adjacent load pin.
For example, on the I DAC, IOUTP must be shorted to RLIP
and IOUTN must be shorted to RLIN. In addition, the CMLI
or CMLQ pin must be connected to ground directly or through
a resistor. If the output current is at the nominal 20 mA and the
CMLI or CMLQ pin is tied directly to ground, this produces a
dc common-mode bias voltage on the DAC output equal to 0.5 V.
If the DAC dc bias needs to be higher than 0.5 V, an external
resistor can be connected between the CMLI or CMLQ pin and
ground. This part also has an internal common-mode resistor
that can be enabled. This is explained in the Using the Internal
Common-Mode Resistor section.
Figure 86. Simplified Internal Load Options
Using the Internal Common-Mode Resistor
These devices contain an adjustable internal common-mode
resistor, which can be used to increase the dc bias of the
DAC outputs. By default, the common-mode resistor is not
connected. When enabled, it can be adjusted from ~60 Ω to
~260 Ω. Each main DAC has an independent adjustment using
the lower six bits in Register 0x05 (IRCML[5:0]) and Register
0x08 (QRCML[5:0]).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OUTPUT CONFIGURATIONS
The following sections illustrate some typical output configurations for the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117. Unless
otherwise noted, it is assumed that IOUTFS is set to a nominal
20 mA. For applications requiring the optimum dynamic
performance, a differential output configuration is suggested.
A differential output configuration can consist of either an RF
transformer or a differential op amp configuration. The transformer configuration provides the optimum high frequency
performance and is recommended for any application that
allows ac coupling. The differential op amp configuration is
suitable for applications requiring dc coupling, signal gain,
and/or a low output impedance.
A single-ended output is suitable for applications where low
cost and low power consumption are primary concerns.
A differential resistor, RDIFF, can be inserted in applications
where the output of the transformer is connected to the load,
RLOAD, via a passive reconstruction filter or cable. RDIFF, as
reflected by the transformer, is chosen to provide a source
termination that results in a low VSWR. Note that approximately half the signal power is dissipated across RDIFF.
SINGLE-ENDED BUFFERED OUTPUT USING
AN OP AMP
An op amp such as the ADA4899-1 can be used to perform
a single-ended current-to-voltage conversion, as shown in
Figure 89. The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 are configured with a pair of series resistors, RS, off each output. For best
distortion performance, RS should be set to 0 Ω. The feedback
resistor, RFB, determines the peak-to-peak signal swing by the
formula
DIFFERENTIAL COUPLING USING A TRANSFORMER
An RF transformer can be used to perform a differential-tosingle-ended signal conversion, as shown in Figure 88. The
distortion performance of a transformer typically exceeds
that available from standard op amps, particularly at higher
frequencies. Transformer coupling provides excellent rejection
of common-mode distortion (that is, even-order harmonics)
over a wide frequency range. It also provides electrical isolation
and can deliver voltage gain without adding noise. Transformers
with different impedance ratios can also be used for impedance
matching purposes. The main disadvantages of transformer
coupling are low frequency roll-off, lack-of-power gain, and
high output impedance.

The center tap on the primary side of the transformer must be
connected to a voltage that keeps the voltages on IOUTP and
IOUTN within the output common-mode voltage range of the
device. Note that the dc component of the DAC output current
is equal to IOUTFS and flows out of both IOUTP and IOUTN. The
center tap of the transformer should provide a path for this dc
current. In most applications, AGND provides the most convenient voltage for the transformer center tap. The complementary
voltages appearing at IOUTP and IOUTN (that is, VIOUTP and
VIOUTN) swing symmetrically around AGND and should be
maintained with the specified output compliance range of the
AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117.

A dual op amp (see the circuit shown in Figure 90) can be used
in a differential version of the single-ended buffer shown in
Figure 89. The same R-C network is used to form a one-pole

To keep the pin count reasonable, these auxiliary DACs each
share a pin with the corresponding FSADJx resistor. They are,
therefore, usable only when enabled and when that DAC is
operated on its internal full-scale resistors. A simple I-to-V
converter is implemented on chip with selectable shunt resistors
(3.2 kΩ to 16 kΩ) such that if REFIO is set to exactly 1 V, REFIO/2
equals 0.5 V and the following equation describes the no load

Two registers are assigned to each DAC with 10 bits for the
actual DAC current to be generated, a 3-bit offset (and gain)
adjustment, a 2-bit current range adjustment, and an enable/
disable bit. Setting the QAUXOFS and IAUXOFS bits to all 1s
disables the op amp and routes the DAC current directly to
their respective FSADJI/ AUXI or FSADJQ/AUXQ pins. This
is especially useful where the loads to be driven are beyond
the limited capability of the on-chip amplifier. The respective
DAC output open circuits when not enabled (QAUXEN or
IAUXEN = 0).

I OR Q DAC
The auxiliary DACs can be used for local oscillator (LO) cancellation when the DAC output is followed by a quadrature modulator.
This LO feedthrough is caused by the input referred dc offset
voltage of the quadrature modulator (and the DAC output offset
voltage mismatch) and can degrade system performance. Typical
DAC-to-quadrature modulator interfaces are shown in Figure 93
and Figure 94. The input common-mode voltage for the modulator could be higher than the output compliance range of the DAC,
even with the RCM feature so that ac coupling or a dc level shift is
necessary. If the required common-mode input voltage on the
quadrature modulator is within that of the DAC, the dc blocking
capacitors in Figure 93 can be removed. The 50 Ω resistors can, of
course be omitted, if the internal resistors are used. A low-pass or
band-pass passive filter is recommended when spurious signals
from the DAC (distortion and DAC images) at the quadrature
modulator inputs can affect the system performance. Placing the
filter at the location shown in Figure 93 and Figure 94 allows easy
design of the filter because the source and load impedances can
easily be designed close to 50 Ω for a 20 mA full-scale output.

CORRECTING FOR NONIDEAL PERFORMANCE OF
QUADRATURE MODULATORS ON THE IF-TO-RF
CONVERSION
Analog quadrature modulators make it very easy to realize
single sideband radios. However, there are several nonideal
aspects of quadrature modulator performance. Among these
analog degradations are gain mismatch and LO feedthrough.
Gain Mismatch
The gain in the real and imaginary signal paths of the quadrature modulator may not be matched perfectly. This leads
to less than optimal image rejection because the cancellation
of the negative frequency image is less than perfect.
LO Feedthrough
The quadrature modulator has a finite dc referred offset, as well
as coupling from its LO port to the signal inputs. These can lead
to a significant spectral spur at the frequency of the Quadrature
Modulator LO.
The AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 have the capability
to correct for both of these analog degradations. However,
understand that these degradations drift over temperature;
therefore, if close to optimal single sideband performance
is desired, a scheme for sensing these degradations over
temperature and correcting them may be necessary.

FILTERING
Fine gain matching is achieved by adjusting the values in the
DAC fine gain adjustment registers. For the I DAC, these values
are in the I DAC gain register (Register 0x03). For the Q DAC,
these values are in the Q DAC gain register (Register 0x06). These
are 6-bit values that cover ±2% of full scale. To perform gain compensation by starting from the default values of zero, raise the
value of one of these registers a few steps until it can be determined if the amplitude of the unwanted image is increased
or decreased. If the unwanted image increased in amplitude,
remove the step and try the same adjustment on the other
DAC control register. Iterate register changes until the rejection
cannot be improved further. If the fine gain adjustment range is
not sufficient to find a null (that is, the register goes full scale with
no null apparent) adjust the course gain settings of the two DACs
accordingly and try again. Variations on this simple method are
possible.

To achieve LO feedthrough compensation, the user should
start with the default conditions of the AUXDAC registers,
then increment the magnitude of one or the other AUXDAC
output voltages. While this is being done, the amplitude of the
LO feedthrough at the quadrature modulator output should be
sensed. If the LO feedthrough amplitude increases, try either
decreasing the output voltage of the AUXDAC being adjusted,
or try adjusting the output voltage of the other AUXDAC. It
may take practice before an effective algorithm is achieved.
Using the AD9114/AD9115/AD9116/AD9117 evaluation
board, the LO feedthrough can typically be adjusted down to
the noise floor, although this is not stable over temperature.

RESULTS OF GAIN AND OFFSET CORRECTION
The results of gain and offset correction can be seen in Figure 95
and Figure 96. Figure 95 shows the output spectrum of the
quadrature demodulator before gain and offset correction.
Figure 96 shows the output spectrum after correction. The
LO feedthrough spur at 450 MHz has been suppressed to the
noise level. This result can be achieved by applying the correction, but the correction needs to be repeated after a large change
in temperature.

To achieve LO feedthrough compensation in a circuit, each
output of the two AUXDACs must be connected through a
10 kΩ resistor to one side of the differential DAC output.
See the Auxiliary DACs section for details of how to use
AUXDACs. The purpose of these connections is to drive a
very small amount of current into the nodes at the quadrature
modulator inputs, therefore adding a slight dc bias to one or
the other of the quadrature modulator signal inputs.

LO FEEDTHROUGH COMPENSATION
Note that gain matching improves the negative frequency
image rejection, but it is also related to the phase mismatch in
the quadrature modulator. It can be improved by adjusting the
relative phase between the two quadrature signals at the digital
side or properly designing the low-pass filter between the DACs
and quadrature modulators. Phase mismatch is frequency dependent, so routines have to be developed to adjust it if wideband
signals are desired.
dB
Note that LO feedthrough compensation is independent of
phase compensation. However, gain compensation could affect
the LO compensation because the gain compensation may change
the common-mode level of the signal. The dc offset of some
modulators is common-mode level dependent. Therefore, it is
recommended that the gain adjustment be performed prior to
LO compensation.
