ADC14DS080
Dual 14-Bit, 80 MSPS A/D Converter with Serial LVDS
Outputs
General Description
Features
The ADC14DS080 is a high-performance CMOS analog-todigital converter capable of converting two analog input signals into 14-bit digital words at rates up to 80 Mega Samples
Per Second (MSPS). The digital outputs are serialized and
provided on differential LVDS signal pairs. These converters
use a differential, pipelined architecture with digital error correction and an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit to minimize
power consumption and the external component count, while
providing excellent dynamic performance. A unique sampleand-hold stage yields a full-power bandwidth of 1 GHz. The
ADC14DS080 may be operated from a single +3.0V or 3.3V
power supply. A power-down feature reduces the power consumption to very low levels while still allowing fast wake-up
time to full operation. The differential inputs accept a 2V full
scale differential input swing. A stable 1.2V internal voltage
reference is provided, or the ADC14DS080 can be operated
with an external 1.2V reference. Output data format (offset
binary versus 2's complement) and duty cycle stabilizer are
selectable. The duty cycle stabilizer maintains performance
over a wide range of clock duty cycles. A serial interface allows access to the control registers for full control of the
ADC14DS80 functionality. The ADC14DS080 is available in
a 60-lead LLP package and operates over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.

LVDS_Bias
Differential analog input pins. The differential full-scale input signal
level is 2VP-P with each input pin signal centered on a common
mode voltage, VCM.
These pins should each be bypassed to AGND with a low ESL
(equivalent series inductance) 1 µF capacitor placed very close to
the pin to minimize stray inductance. An 0201 size 0.1 µF capacitor
should be placed between VRP and VRN as close to the pins as
possible, and a 1 µF capacitor should be placed in parallel.
VRP and VRN should not be loaded. VCMO may be loaded to 1mA
for use as a temperature stable 1.5V reference.
It is recommended to use VCMO to provide the common mode
voltage, VCM, for the differential analog inputs.
Reference Voltage. This device provides an internally developed
1.2V reference. When using the internal reference, VREF should be
decoupled to AGND with a 0.1 µF and a 1µF, low equivalent series
inductance (ESL) capacitor.
This pin may be driven with an external 1.2V reference voltage.
This pin should not be used to source or sink current.
LVDS Driver Bias Resistor is applied from this pin to Analog
Ground. The nominal value is 3.6KΩ

CLK
The clock input pin.
The analog inputs are sampled on the rising edge of the clock input.
Reset_DLL
Reset_DLL input. This pin is normally low. If the input clock
frequency is changed abruptly, the internal timing circuits may
become unlocked. Cycle this pin high for 1 microsecond to re-lock
the DLL. The DLL will lock in several microseconds after
Reset_DLL is asserted.
OF/DCS
This is a four-state pin controlling the input clock mode and output
data format.
OF/DCS = VA, output data format is 2's complement without duty
cycle stabilization applied to the input clock
OF/DCS = AGND, output data format is offset binary, without duty
cycle stabilization applied to the input clock.
OF/DCS = (2/3)*VA, output data is 2's complement with duty cycle
stabilization applied to the input clock
OF/DCS = (1/3)*VA, output data is offset binary with duty cycle
stabilization applied to the input clock.
Note: This signal has no effect when SPI_EN is high and the SPI
interface is enabled.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
guaranteed to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under
the listed test conditions. Operation of the device beyond the maximum Operating Ratings is not recommended.
Note 2: This parameter is specified in units of dBFS - indicating the value that would be attained with a full-scale input signal.
www.national.com
10
Note 4: When the input voltage at any pin exceeds the power supplies (that is, VIN < AGND, or VIN > VA), the current at that pin should be limited to ±5 mA. The
±50 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of ±5 mA to 10.
Note 5: The maximum allowable power dissipation is dictated by TJ,max, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, (θJA), and the ambient temperature, (TA), and
can be calculated using the formula PD,max = (TJ,max - TA )/θJA. The values for maximum power dissipation listed above will be reached only when the device is
operated in a severe fault condition (e.g. when input or output pins are driven beyond the power supply voltages, or the power supply polarity is reversed). Such
conditions should always be avoided.

LVDS OUTPUT OFFSET VOLTAGE (VOS) is the midpoint
between the differential output pair voltages.
MISSING CODES are those output codes that will never appear at the ADC outputs. The ADC is guaranteed not to have
any missing codes.
MSB (MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the largest
value or weight. Its value is one half of full scale.
NEGATIVE FULL SCALE ERROR is the difference between
the actual first code transition and its ideal value of ½ LSB
above negative full scale.
OFFSET ERROR is the difference between the two input

APERTURE DELAY is the time after the rising edge of the
clock to when the input signal is acquired or held for conversion.

BITS) is another method of specifying Signal-to-Noise and
Distortion Ratio or SINAD. ENOB is defined as (SINAD 1.76) / 6.02 and says that the converter is equivalent to a
perfect ADC of this (ENOB) number of bits.

Operating on a single +3.3V supply, the ADC14DS080 digitizes two differential analog input signals to 14 bits, using a
differential pipelined architecture with error correction circuitry
and an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit to ensure maximum
performance. The user has the choice of using an internal
1.2V stable reference, or using an external 1.2V reference.
Any external reference is buffered on-chip to ease the task of
driving that pin. Duty cycle stabilization and output data format
are selectable using the quad state function OF/DCS pin (pin
19). The output data can be set for offset binary or two's complement.
EFS = 16384 ( 1 - sin (90° + dev))
Where dev is the angular difference in degrees between the
two signals having a 180° relative phase relationship to each
other (see Figure 6). For single frequency inputs, angular errors result in a reduction of the effective full scale input. For
complex waveforms, however, angular errors will result in
distortion.
Applications Information
1.0 OPERATING CONDITIONS
We recommend that the following conditions be observed for
operation of the ADC14DS080:
2.7V ≤ VA ≤ 3.6V
2.7V ≤ VDR ≤ VA
25 MHz ≤ fCLK ≤ 80 MHz
1.2V internal reference
VREF = 1.2V (for an external reference)
VCM = 1.5V (from VCMO)

FIGURE 6. Angular Errors Between the Two Input Signals
Will Reduce the Output Level or Cause Distortion
It is recommended to drive the analog inputs with a source
impedance less than 100Ω. Matching the source impedance
for the differential inputs will improve even ordered harmonic
performance (particularly second harmonic).
Table 1indicates the input to output relationship of the ADC14DS080.
2.0 ANALOG INPUTS
2.1 Signal Inputs
2.1.1 Differential Analog Input Pins
The ADC14DS080 has a pair of analog signal input pins for
each of two channels. V IN+ and VIN− form a differential input
pair. The input signal, VIN, is defined as
VIN = (VIN+) – (VIN−)
Figure 5 shows the expected input signal range. Note that the
common mode input voltage, VCM, should be 1.5V. Using
VCMO (pins 7,9) for VCM will ensure the proper input common
mode level for the analog input signal. The positive peaks of
the individual input signals should each never exceed 2.6V.
Each analog input pin of the differential pair should have a
maximum peak-to-peak voltage of 1V, be 180° out of phase
with each other and be centered around VCM.The peak-topeak voltage swing at each analog input pin should not exceed the 1V or the output data will be clipped.

2.1.2 Driving the Analog Inputs
The VIN+ and the VIN− inputs of the ADC14DS080 have an
internal sample-and-hold circuit which consists of an analog
switch followed by a switched-capacitor amplifier.
30035882
FIGURE 7. Low Input Frequency Transformer Drive Circuit
30035883
FIGURE 8. High Input Frequency Transformer Drive Circuit
One short-coming of using a transformer to achieve the single-ended to differential conversion is that most RF transformers have poor low frequency performance. A differential
amplifier can be used to drive the analog inputs for low frequency applications. The amplifier must be fast enough to
settle from the charging glitches on the analog input resulting
from the sample-and-hold operation before the clock goes
high and the sample is passed to the ADC core.
that voltage is used for the reference. The VREF pin should
always be bypassed to ground with a 0.1 µF capacitor close
to the reference input pin.
It is important that all grounds associated with the reference
voltage and the analog input signal make connection to the
ground plane at a single, quiet point to minimize the effects of
noise currents in the ground path.
The Reference Bypass Pins (VRP, VCMO, and VRN) for channels A and B are made available for bypass purposes. These
pins should each be bypassed to AGND with a low ESL
(equivalent series inductance) 1 µF capacitor placed very
close to the pin to minimize stray inductance. A 0.1 µF capacitor should be placed between VRP and VRN as close to
the pins as possible, and a 1 µF capacitor should be placed
in parallel. This configuration is shown in Figure 9. It is necessary to avoid reference oscillation, which could result in
reduced SFDR and/or SNR. VCMO may be loaded to 1mA for
use as a temperature stable 1.5V reference. The remaining
pins should not be loaded.
Smaller capacitor values than those specified will allow faster
recovery from the power down mode, but may result in de-
2.1.3 Input Common Mode Voltage
The input common mode voltage, VCM, should be in the range
of 1.4V to 1.6V and be a value such that the peak excursions
of the analog signal do not go more negative than ground or
more positive than 2.6V. It is recommended to use VCMO (pins
7,9) as the input common mode voltage.
2.2 Reference Pins
The ADC14DS0800 is designed to operate with an internal or
external 1.2V reference. The internal 1.2 Volt reference is the
default condition when no external reference input is applied
to the VREF pin. If a voltage is applied to the VREF pin, then

sible to the ADC clock pin but beyond it as seen from the clock
source. Typical tPD is about 150 ps/inch (60 ps/cm) on FR-4
board material. The units of "L" and tPD should be the same
(inches or centimeters).
The duty cycle of the clock signal can affect the performance
of the A/D Converter. Because achieving a precise duty cycle
is difficult, the ADC14DS080 has a Duty Cycle Stabilizer.
3.2 Power-Down (PD_A and PD_B)
The PD_A and PD_B pins, when high, hold the respective
channel of the ADC14DS080 in a power-down mode to conserve power when that channel is not being used. The channels may be powereed down individually or together. The data
in the pipeline is corrupted while in the power down mode.
The Power Down Mode Exit Cycle time is determined by the
value of the components on the reference bypass pins
( VRP, VCMO and VRN ). These capacitors loose their charge
in the Power Down mode and must be recharged by on-chip
circuitry before conversions can be accurate. Smaller capacitor values allow slightly faster recovery from the power down
mode, but can result in a reduction in SNR, SINAD and ENOB
performance.
Note: This signal has no effect when SPI_EN is high and the
serial control interface is enabled.
2.3 OF/DCS Pin
Duty cycle stabilization and output data format are selectable
using this quad state function pin. When enabled, duty cycle
stabilization can compensate for clock inputs with duty cycles
ranging from 30% to 70% and generate a stable internal clock,
improving the performance of the part. With OF/DCS = VA the
output data format is 2's complement and duty cycle stabilization is not used. With OF/DCS = AGND the output data
format is offset binary and duty cycle stabilization is not used.
With OF/DCS = (2/3)*VA the output data format is 2's complement and duty cycle stabilization is applied to the clock. If
OF/DCS is (1/3)*VA the output data format is offset binary and
duty cycle stabilization is applied to the clock. While the sense
of this pin may be changed "on the fly," doing this is not recommended as the output data could be erroneous for a few
clock cycles after this change is made.
Note: This signal has no effect when SPI_EN is high and the
serial control interface is enabled.
3.3 Reset_DLL
This pin is normally low. If the input clock frequency is
changed abruptly, the internal timing circuits may become
unlocked. Cycle this pin high for 1 microsecond to re-lock the
DLL. The DLL will lock in several microseconds after
Reset_DLL is asserted.
3.0 DIGITAL INPUTS
Digital CMOS compatible inputs consist of CLK, and PD_A,
PD_B, Reset_DLL, DLC, TEST, WAM, SPI_EN, SCSb,
SCLK, and SDI.
3.4 DLC
This pin sets the output data configuration. With this signal at
logic-1, all data is sourced on a single lane (SD1_x) for each
channel. When this signal is at logic-0, the data is sourced on
dual lanes (SD0_x and SD1_x) for each channel. This simplifies data capture at higher data rates.
Note: This signal has no effect when SPI_EN is high and the
SPI interface is enabled.
3.1 Clock Input
The CLK controls the timing of the sampling process. To
achieve the optimum noise performance, the clock input
should be driven with a stable, low jitter clock signal in the
range indicated in the Electrical Table. The clock input signal
should also have a short transition region. This can be
achieved by passing a low-jitter sinusoidal clock source
through a high speed buffer gate. The trace carrying the clock
signal should be as short as possible and should not cross
any other signal line, analog or digital, not even at 90°.
The clock signal also drives an internal state machine. If the
clock is interrupted, or its frequency is too low, the charge on
the internal capacitors can dissipate to the point where the
accuracy of the output data will degrade. This is what limits
the minimum sample rate.
The clock line should be terminated at its source in the characteristic impedance of that line. Take care to maintain a
constant clock line impedance throughout the length of the
line. Refer to Application Note AN-905 for information on setting characteristic impedance.
It is highly desirable that the the source driving the ADC clock
pins only drive that pin. However, if that source is used to drive
other devices, then each driven pin should be AC terminated
with a series RC to ground, such that the resistor value is
equal to the characteristic impedance of the clock line and the
capacitor value is
3.5 TEST
When this signal is asserted high, a fixed test pattern
(10100110001110 msb->lsb) is sourced at the data outputs.
When low, the ADC is in normal operation. The user may
specify a custom test pattern via the serial control interface.
Note: This signal has no effect when SPI_EN is high and the
SPI interface is enabled.
3.6 WAM
In dual-lane mode only, when this signal is at logic-0 the serial
data words are offset by half-word. With this signal at logic-1
the serial data words are aligned with each other. In single
lane mode this pin must be set to logic-0.
Note: This signal has no effect when SPI_EN is high and the
SPI interface is enabled.
3.7 SPI_EN
The SPI interface is enabled when this signal is asserted high.
In this case the direct control pins (OF/DCS, PD_A, PD_B,
DLC, WAM, TEST) have no effect. When this signal is deasserted, the SPI interface is disabled and the direct control
pins are enabled.

than VCMO may result in performance degradation.

more information.
the dual-lane scheme. In either case DDR-type clocking is
used. For each data channel, an overrange indication is also
provided. The OR signal is updated with each frame of data.
4.0 DIGITAL OUTPUTS
Digital outputs consist of six LVDS signal pairs (SD0_A,
SD1_A, SD0_B, SD1_B, OUTCLK, FRAME) and CMOS logic
outputs ORA, ORB, DLL_Lock, and SDO.
4.2 ORA, ORB
These CMOS outputs are asserted logic-high when their respective channel’s data output is out-of-range in either high
or low direction.
4.1 LVDS Outputs
The digital data for each channel is provided in a serial format.
Two modes of operation are available for the serial data format. Single-lane serial format (shown in Figure 2 ) uses one
set of differential data signals per channel. Dual-lane serial
format (shown in Figure 3) uses two sets of differential data
signals per channel in order to slow down the data and clock
frequency by a factor of 2. At slower rates of operation (typically below 65 MSPS) the single-lane mode may the most
efficient to use. At higher rates the user may want to employ
4.3 DLL_Lock
When the internal DLL is locked to the input CLK, this pin
outputs a logic high. If the input CLK is changed abruptly, the
internal DLL may become unlocked and this pin will output a
logic low. Cycle Reset_DLL to re-lock the DLL to the input
CLK.

SCSb: Serial Interface Chip Select. Each assertion starts a
new register access - i.e., the SDATA field protocol is required. The user is required to deassert this signal after the
16th clock. If the SCSb is deasserted before the 16th clock,
no address or data write will occur. The rising edge captures
the address just shifted-in and, in the case of a write operation, writes the addressed register. There is a minimum pulsewidth requirement for the deasserted pulse - which is

6.0 POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS
The power supply pins should be bypassed with a 0.1 µF capacitor and with a 100 pF ceramic chip capacitor close to each
power pin. Leadless chip capacitors are preferred because
they have low series inductance.
As is the case with all high-speed converters, the ADC14DS080 is sensitive to power supply noise. Accordingly,
the noise on the analog supply pin should be kept below 100
mVP-P.
No pin should ever have a voltage on it that is in excess of the
supply voltages, not even on a transient basis. Be especially
careful of this during power turn on and turn off.
8.0 DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
To achieve the best dynamic performance, the clock source
driving the CLK input must have a sharp transition region and
be free of jitter. Isolate the ADC clock from any digital circuitry
with buffers, as with the clock tree shown in Figure 13. The
gates used in the clock tree must be capable of operating at
frequencies much higher than those used if added jitter is to
be prevented.
As mentioned in Section 6.0, it is good practice to keep the
ADC clock line as short as possible and to keep it well away
from any other signals. Other signals can introduce jitter into
the clock signal, which can lead to reduced SNR performance, and the clock can introduce noise into other lines.
Even lines with 90° crossings have capacitive coupling, so try
to avoid even these 90° crossings of the clock line.
7.0 LAYOUT AND GROUNDING
Proper grounding and proper routing of all signals are essential to ensure accurate conversion. Maintaining separate analog and digital areas of the board, with the ADC14DS080
between these areas, is required to achieve specified performance.
Capacitive coupling between the typically noisy digital circuitry and the sensitive analog circuitry can lead to poor performance. The solution is to keep the analog circuitry separated
from the digital circuitry, and to keep the clock line as short as
possible.
Since digital switching transients are composed largely of
high frequency components, total ground plane copper
weight will have little effect upon the logic-generated noise.
This is because of the skin effect. Total surface area is more
important than is total ground plane area.
Generally, analog and digital lines should cross each other at
90° to avoid crosstalk. To maximize accuracy in high speed,
high resolution systems, however, avoid crossing analog and
digital lines altogether. It is important to keep clock lines as
short as possible and isolated from ALL other lines, including
other digital lines. Even the generally accepted 90° crossing
should be avoided with the clock line as even a little coupling
can cause problems at high frequencies. This is because other lines can introduce jitter into the clock line, which can lead
to degradation of SNR. Also, the high speed clock can introduce noise into the analog chain.
Best performance at high frequencies and at high resolution
is obtained with a straight signal path. That is, the signal path

through all components should form a straight line wherever
possible.
Be especially careful with the layout of inductors and transformers. Mutual inductance can change the characteristics of
the circuit in which they are used. Inductors and transformers
should not be placed side by side, even with just a small part
of their bodies beside each other. For instance, place transformers for the analog input and the clock input at 90° to one
another to avoid magnetic coupling.
The analog input should be isolated from noisy signal traces
to avoid coupling of spurious signals into the input. Any external component (e.g., a filter capacitor) connected between
the converter's input pins and ground or to the reference input
pin and ground should be connected to a very clean point in
the ground plane.
All analog circuitry (input amplifiers, filters, reference components, etc.) should be placed in the analog area of the board.
All digital circuitry and dynamic I/O lines should be placed in
the digital area of the board. The ADC14DS080 should be
between these two areas. Furthermore, all components in the
reference circuitry and the input signal chain that are connected to ground should be connected together with short
traces and enter the ground plane at a single, quiet point. All
ground connections should have a low inductance path to
ground.
