GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9640 is a dual 14-Bit 150 MSPS ADC. The AD9640 is
designed to support communications applications where low
cost, small size, and versatility are desired.
The dual ADC core features a multistage differential pipelined
architecture with integrated output error correction logic. Each
ADC features wide bandwidth differential sample-and-hold
analog input amplifiers supporting a variety of user-selectable
input ranges. An integrated voltage reference eases design
considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer is provided to compensate for variations in the ADC clock duty cycle, allowing the
converters to maintain excellent performance.
The AD9640 has several functions which simply the AGC
function in the system receiver. The fast detect feature allows
fast overrange detection by outputting 4 bits of input level
information with very short latency. Additionally, the
programmable threshold detector allows monitoring of the
incoming signal power from the ADC’s 4 fast detect bits with
very low latency. If the input signal level exceeds the
programmable threshold, the decrement gain indicator will go
high. Because this threshold is set from the 4 MSB’s this allows
the user to quickly turn down the system gain to avoid an
overrange condition. The second AGC related function is the
Signal monitor. This block allows the user to monitor the
composite magnitude of the incoming signal which aids in
setting the gain to optimize the dynamic range of the overall
system.
14-bit output ports. These outputs can be set from 1.8V to
3.3V CMOS. Or 1.8V LVDS.
Flexible power-down options allow significant power savings,
when desired.

ESD 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 this product 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
Crosstalk
Coupling onto one channel being driven by a (−0.5 dBFS) signal
when the adjacent interfering channel is driven by a full-scale
signal. Measurement includes all spurs resulting from both
direct coupling and mixing components.
IF Sampling (Undersampling)
Due to the effects of aliasing, an ADC is not necessarily limited
to Nyquist sampling. Frequencies above Nyquist are aliased and
appear in the first Nyquist zone (dc to Sample Rate/2). Care
must be taken to limit the bandwidth of the sampled signal so
that it does not overlap Nyquist zones and alias onto itself. IF
sampling performance is limited by the bandwidth of the input
SHA (sample-and-hold amplifier) and clock jitter. (Jitter adds
more noise at higher input frequencies.)
Nyquist Sampling (Oversampling)
Oversampling occurs when the frequency components of the
analog input signal are below the Nyquist frequency (Fclock/2),
and requires that the analog input frequency be sampled at least
two samples per cycle.
Out-of-Range Recovery Time
Out-of-range recovery time is the time it takes for the analogto-digital converter (ADC) to reacquire the analog input after a
transient from 10% above positive full scale to 10% above
negative full scale, or from 10% below negative full scale to 10%
below positive full scale.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
The ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal to the
rms sum of all other spectral components within the programmed DDC filter bandwidth, excluding the first six
harmonics and dc. The value for SNR is expressed in
decibels (dB).
Two-Tone IMD Rejection
The ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value
of the worst third-order intermodulation product; reported

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9640 dual ADC design may be used for diversity
reception of signals, where the ADCs are operating identically
on the same carrier but from two separate antennae. The ADCs
can also be operated with independent analog inputs. The user
can sample any fs/2 frequency segment from dc to 100 MHz
using appropriate low-pass or band-pass filtering at the ADC
inputs with little loss in ADC performance. Operation to 200
MHz analog input is permitted, but at the expense of increased
ADC distortion.
In non-diversity applications, the AD9640 can be used as a
baseband receiver where one ADC is used for I input data and
the other used for Q input data.
Synchronizaton capability is provided to allow synchronized
timing between multiple channels or multiple devices.
sample capacitors and settling within one-half of a clock cycle.
A small resistor in series with each input can help reduce the
peak transient current required from the output stage of the
driving source. A shunt capacitor can be placed across the
inputs to provide dynamic charging currents. This passive
network creates a low-pass filter at the ADC’s input; therefore,
the precise values are dependant upon the application.
In IF undersampling applications, any shunt capacitors should
be reduced. In combination with the driving source impedance,
they would limit the input bandwidth. See the application notes
AN-742 and AN-827, and the Analog Dialogue article
“Transformer-Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters”
for more information on this subject. In general, the precise
values are dependent on the application.
Programming and control of the AD9640 is accomplished using
a 3-bit SPI compatible serial interface.
ADC ARCHITECTURE
The AD9640 architecture consists of a dual front-end sample
and hold amplifier (SHA) followed by a pipelined switched
capacitor ADC. The quantized outputs from each stage are
combined into a final 14-bit result in the digital correction
logic. The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to
operate on a new input sample, while the remaining stages
operate on preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising
edge of the clock.
Figure21. Switched-Capacitor SHA Input
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched capacitor DAC
and interstage residue amplifier (MDAC). The residue amplifier
magnifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output
and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. One bit of
redundancy is used in each stage to facilitate digital correction
of flash errors. The last stage simply consists of a flash ADC.
For best dynamic performance, the source impedances driving
VIN+ and VIN– should be matched.
The input stage of each channel contains a differential SHA that
can be ac- or dc-coupled in differential or single-ended modes.
The output-staging block aligns the data, carries out the error
correction, and passes the data to the output buffers. The output
buffers are powered from a separate supply, allowing
adjustment of the output voltage swing. During power-down,
the output buffers go into a high impedance state.
The analog inputs of the AD9640 are not internally dc-biased.
In ac-coupled applications, the user must provide this bias
externally. Setting the device so that VCM = 0.5 × AVDD is
recommended for optimum performance, but the device
functions over a wider range with reasonable performance (see
Figure x). An on-board common-mode voltage reference is
included in the design and is available from the CML pin.
Optimum performance is achieved when the common-mode
voltage of the analog input is set by the CML pin voltage
(typically 0.55 × AVDD).
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The analog input to the AD9640 is a differential switched
capacitor SHA that has been designed for optimum
performance while processing a differential input signal.
An internal differential reference buffer creates positive and
negative reference voltages that define the input span of the
ADC core. The span of the ADC core is set by the buffer to be
2X VREF.
Input Common Mode
Differential Input Configurations
The clock signal alternatively switches the SHA between sample
mode and hold mode (see x). When the SHA is switched into
sample mode, the signal source must be capable of charging the
Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9640

and a flexible interface to the ADC. The output common-mode

For baseband applications where SNR is a key parameter,
differential transformer coupling is the recommended input
configuration. An example is shown in Figure 5. The CML
voltage can be connected to the center tap of the transformer’s
secondary winding to bias the analog input.
The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting a
transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few MHz, and excessive signal power can also cause
core saturation, which leads to distortion.

In any configuration, the value of the shunt capacitor, C, is

is shown in Figure 6.

Single-Ended Input Configuration
A single-ended input can provide adequate performance in
cost-sensitive applications. In this configuration, SFDR and
distortion performance degrade due to the large input
common-mode swing. If the source impedances on each input
are matched, there should be little effect on SNR performance.

A stable and accurate voltage reference is built into the AD9640.
The input range can be adjusted by varying the reference

reference or an externally applied reference voltage. The input
span of the ADC tracks reference voltage changes linearly. The
various reference modes are summarized in the next few

Internal Reference Connection
A comparator within the AD9640 detects the potential at the
SENSE pin and configures the reference into four possible
states, which are summarized in Table x. If SENSE is grounded,
the reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal
resistor divider (see Figure 9), setting VREF to 1 V. Connecting
the SENSE pin to VREF switches the reference amplifier output
to the SENSE pin, completing the loop and providing a 0.5 V
reference output. If a resistor divider is connected external to
the chip as shown in Figure 10, the switch again sets to the
SENSE pin. This puts the reference amplifier in a noninverting
mode with the VREF output defined as

Clock Input Options
The AD9640 has a very flexible clock input structure. The clock
input can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal.
Regardless of the type of signal being used, the jitter of the clock
source is of the most concern, as described in the Jitter
Considerations section.
Figure 11. VREF Accuracy vs. Load
External Reference Operation
The use of an external reference may be necessary to enhance
the gain accuracy of the ADC or improve thermal drift
characteristics. Figure 12 shows the typical drift characteristics
of the internal reference in both 1 V and 0.5 V modes.
Figure 14 shows one preferred method for clocking the AD9640
(at clock rates to 150MSPS). A low jitter clock source is
converted from single-ended to differential signal using an RF
transformer. The back-to-back Schottky diodes across the
transformer secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9640
to approximately 0.8 Vp-p differential. This helps prevent the
large voltage swings of the clock from feeding through to other
portions of the AD9640 while preserving the fast rise and fall
times of the signal, which are critical to a low jitter
performance.

In some applications it may acceptable to drive the sample clock

CLK+ should be directly driven from a CMOS gate, while the
CLK- pin should be bypassed to ground with a 0.1uF capacitor
in parallel with a 39 kΩ resistor (see Figure 17). CLK+ may be
directly driven from a CMOS gate. Although the CLK+ input
circuit supply is AVDD (1.8 V), this input is designed to

The AD9640 clock divider can be synchronized using the
external SYNC input. Register 0x100 bits bits 1 and 2 allow the
clock divider to be re-synchronized on every SYNC signal or
only on the first SYNC signal after the register is written. A
valid SYNC causes the clock divider to reset to its initial state.
This synchronization feature allows multiple parts to have their
clock dividers aligned to guarantee simultaneous input
sampling.
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a
variety of internal timing signals, and as a result may be
sensitive to clock duty cycle. Commonly, a ±5% tolerance is
required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic
performance
characteristics. The AD9640 contains a duty cycle stabilizer
(DCS) that retimes the nonsampling, or falling, edge, providing
an internal clock signal with a nominal 50% duty cycle. This
allows the user to provide a wide range of clock input duty
cycles without affecting the performance of the AD9640. Noise
and distortion performance are nearly flat for a wide range of
duty cycles with the DCS on, as shown in Figure x.
The duty cycle stabilizer uses a delay-locked loop (DLL) to
create the nonsampling edge. As a result, any changes to the
sampling frequency require approximately TBD clock cycles to
allow the DLL to acquire and lock to the new rate.

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases
where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the
AD9640. Power supplies for clock drivers should be separated
from the ADC output driver supplies to avoid modulating the
clock signal with digital noise. Low jitter, crystal-controlled
oscillators make the best clock sources. If the clock is generated
from another type of source (by gating, dividing, or other
methods), it should be retimed by the original clock at the last
step.
Refer to the AN-501 Application Note and the AN-756
Application Note for more in-depth information about jitter
performance as it relates to ADCs. See www.analog.com.
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
As shown in Figure 20, the power dissipated by the AD9640 is
proportional to its sample rate. In CMOS output mode, the
digital power dissipation is determined primarily by the
strength of the digital drivers and the load on each output bit.
The maximum DRVDD current (IDRVDD) can be calculated as:
I DRVDD = VDRVDD × C LOAD × f CLK × N
where N is the number of output bits, 14 in the case of the
AD9640. This maximum current occurs when every output bit
switches on every clock cycle, that is, a full-scale square wave at
the Nyquist frequency, fCLK/2. In practice, the DRVDD current
is established by the average number of output bits switching,
which is determined by the sample rate and the characteristics
of the analog input signal. Reducing the capacitive load
presented to the output drivers can minimize digital power
consumption. The data in Figure 20 was taken with the same
operating conditions as the Typical Performance Characteristics
with a 5 pF load on each output driver.
By asserting the PDWN mode (either through the SPI port or
by asserting the PDWN pin high), the AD9640 is placed in
power-down mode. In this state, the ADC typically dissipates
TBD mW. During power-down, the output drivers are placed in
a high impedance state. Asserting the PDWN pin low returns
the AD9640 to its normal operational mode. This pin is both
1.8V and 3.3V tolerant.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,
and clock. Internal capacitors are discharged when entering
power-down mode and then must be recharged when returning
to normal operation. As a result, the wake-up time is related to
the time spent in power-down mode and shorter power-down
cycles result in proportionally shorter wake-up times. It takes
approximately TBD sec to fully discharge the internal reference
buffer decoupling capacitors and TBD ms to restore full
operation.
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC
in power-down or standby modes. Standby mode allows the
user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when
faster wake-up times are required. See the SPI Register Map
Description section for more details.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The AD9640 output drivers can be configured to interface with
1.8 V to 3.3 V logic families by matching DRVDD to the digital
supply of the interfaced logic.
In CMOS output mode, the output drivers are sized to provide
sufficient output current to drive a wide variety of logic
families. However, large drive currents tend to cause current
glitches on the supplies that may affect converter performance.
Applications requiring the ADC to drive large capacitive loads
or large fan-outs may require external buffers or latches.
The output data format can be selected for either offset binary
or twos complement by setting the CLK/DFS pin when
operating in the external pin mode (see Table 3). As detailed in
the memory map register description section the data format
can be selected for either offset binary, twos complement, or

Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)
The AD9640 has a flexible three-state ability for the digital
output pins. The three-state mode can be enabled using the
OEB pin or through the SPI interface. If the OEB pin is low, the
output data drivers are enabled. If the OEB pin is high, the
output data drivers are placed in a high impedance state. It is
not intended for rapid access to the data bus. Note that OEB is
referenced to the digital supplies (DRVDD) and should not
exceed that supply voltage.
When using the SPI interface each channel’s data and fast detect
outputs can be independently three-stated by using the Output
Enable Bar bit in register 0x14.

TIMING
The AD9640 provides latched data with a pipeline delay of
twelve clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation
delay (tPD) after the rising edge of the clock signal.
The length of the output data lines and loads placed on them
should be minimized to reduce transients within the AD9640.
These transients can degrade the converter’s dynamic performance.
The AD9640 also provides data clock output (DCO) intended for
capturing the data in an external register. The data outputs are
valid on the rising edge of DCO. See Figure x for a graphical
timing description.
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9640 is 10 MSPS.
At clock rates below 10 MSPS, dynamic performance can
degrade.

ADC FAST MAGNITUDE
ADC OVERRANGE AND GAIN CONTROL
It is desirable to have a mechanism to reliably determine when
the converter is about to be clipped. The standard overflow
indicator provides after the fact information which is of limited
usefulness. Therefore it is useful to have a programmable
threshold below full-scale that would allow time to reduce the
gain before the clip actually occurs. In addition, since input
signals can have significant slew rates, latency of this function is
a big concern. Highly pipelined converters can have significant
latency. A good compromise of this function is to use the
output bits from the first stage of the ADC for this function.
Latency for these output bits is very low, and overall resolution
is not highly significant. Peak input signals are typically
between full-scale and 6 to 10 dB below full-scale. A 3 or 4 bit
output should give more than adequate range and resolution for
this function.
Via the SPI port, the user can provide a threshold above which a
fast over-range output would be active. As long as the signal is
below that threshold, the output should remain low. This pin
could also be programmed via the SPI port to function as a
traditional over-range pin for customers who currently use this
feature. In this mode, all 14 bits of the converter would be
examined in the traditional manner and the output would be
high for the condition normally defined as overflow. In either
mode, the sign of the data is not considered in the calculation of
the condition. The threshold detection responds identically to
positive and negative signals outside the desired range
(magnitude).
FAST DETECT OVERVIEW
The AD9640 contains circuitry to facilitate fast over-range
detection allowing very flexible external gain control
implementations. Each ADC has four Fast Detect (FD) bits that
are utilized to output information about the current state of the
ADC input level. The FD bit function is programmable
allowing range information to be output from several points in
the internal data path. These bits can also be set up to indicate
the presence of overrange or underrange conditions according
to programmable threshold levels. Table X.x below shows the 6
configurations available for the Fast Detect bits. These
configurations are selecting by setting bits 3:1 in the register at
SPI address 0x104.

When the FD bits are configured to output the ADC fast

Preliminary Technical Data
AD9640
ADC OVERRANGE (OVR)
The ADC Overrange bit becomes active when an overrange is
detected on the input of the ADC. The overrange condition is
determined at the output of the ADC pipline and is therefore
subject to the TBD ADC clock cycle latency. So an overrange at
the input would be indicated by this bit TBD clock cycles after it
occurred.
is a 13 bit threshold register that is compared with the
magnitude at the output of the ADC. This comparison is
subject to the ADC clock latency but allows a finer, more
accurate comparison. The fine threshold magnitude is defined
by equation x.x.
dBFS = 20 log (threshold mag/2^13)
GAIN SWITCHING
Fine Lower Threshold (F_LT)
The AD9640 includes circuitry that is useful in applications
where either large dynamic ranges exist or where gain ranging
converters are employed. This circuitry allows digital thresholds
to be set such that an upper and a lower threshold can be
programmed. Fast detect modes 2 through 7 support various
combinations of the gain switching options.
The Fine Lower Threshold bit will be asserted if the input
magnitude is less than value programmed in the Fine Lower
Threshold Register located at addresses 0x108 and 0x109. The
fine lower threshold register is a 13 bit register that is compared
with the magnitude at the output of the ADC. This comparison
is delayed by the ADC clock latency but provides an accurate
comparison. The fine threshold magnitude is defined by
equation x.x.
One such use of this may be to detect when an ADC is about to
reach full scale with a particular input condition. The results
would be to provide a flag that could be used to quickly insert
an attenuator that would prevent ADC overdrive.
dBFS = 20 log (threshold mag/2^13)
Coarse Upper Threshold (C_UT)
The coarse upper threshold bit is asserted if the input level
present on the ADC Fast Magnitude bits is greater than the level
programmed in the coarse upper threshold register at address
0x105 bits [2:0]. This value is compared with the ADC Fast
Magnitude Bits [2:0]. The coarse upper threshold levels are
shown in Table x.x. This bit remains asserted for a minimum of
2 ADC clock cycles or until the signal drops below the
threshold level.

Increment Gain (IG) and Decrement Gain (DG)
The Increment Gain and decrement gain outputs are intended
to be used together to provide information to enable external
gain control. The Decrement Gain output works identically to
the Coarse Upper Threshold output. This bit is asserted when
the input magnitude is greater than the three bit value in the
Coarse Upper Threshold Register. The Increment Gain output
is similar to the Fine Lower Threshold bit except that it will be
asserted only if the input magnitude is less than value
programmed in the Fine Lower Threshold Register for greater
than the 16 bit Dwell Time value located at addresses 0x10A
and 0x10B. The dwell time is set in units of ADC input clock
cycles ranging from 1 to 65535. The fine lower threshold
register is a 13 bit register that is compared with the magnitude
at the output of the ADC. This comparison is subject to the
ADC clock latency but allows a finer, more accurate
comparison. The fine threshold magnitude is defined by
equation x.x.
The decrement gain output works off the ADC fast detect bits
providing a fast indication of potential overrange conditions.
The increment gain uses the comparison at the output of the
ADC requiring the input magnitude to remain below an
accurate programmable level for a predefined period before
signaling external circuitry to increase the gain.
The operation of the increment gain and decrement gain bits is
shown in Figure x.x.

SIGNAL MONITOR
The signal monitor result values can be obtained from the part
by either reading back internal registers at addresses 0x116 to
0x11B using the SPI port or by using the signal monitor SPORT
output. The output contents of the SPI accessible signal monitor
registers is set via the 2 power-monitor mode bits of the signal
monitor control register. Both ADC channels must be
configured for the same signal monitor mode. Separate SPI
accessible 20 bit Signal monitor Value (PMV) output registers
are provided for each ADC channel. Any combination of the
signal monitor functions can also be output to the user via a
serial SPORT interface. These outputs are enabled using the
Peak Power Output Enable, RMS Magnitude Output Enable,
and Threshold Crossing Output Enable bits in the Signal
monitor SPORT Control Register.
For each of the signal monitor measurements a programmable
Signal Monitor Period Register (SMPR) controls the duration
of the measurement. This time period is programmed as the
number of input clock cycles in a 24-bit ADC monitor period
register located at addresses 0x113, 0x114, and 0x115. This
register can be programmed with a period from 128 samples to
16.78 (2^24) million samples.
Since the DC offset of the ADC can be significantly larger than
the signal of interest a simple DC correction circuit is included
as part of the signal monitor block to null the DC offset before
measuring the power.
PEAK DETECTOR MODE (MODE BITS 01)
The magnitude of the input port signal is monitored over a
programmable time period (given by SMPR) to give the peak
value detected. This function is enabled by programming a logic
1 in the power-monitor mode bits of the power-monitor control
register or by setting the Peak Power Output Enable bit in the
Signal monitor SPORT Control Register. The 24-bit SMPR must
be programmed before activating this mode.
After enabling this mode, the value in the SMPR is loaded into a
monitor period timer and the countdown is started. The
magnitude of the input signal is compared to the internal peak
level holding register, and the greater of the two is updated back
into the peak level holding register. The initial value of the peak
level holding register is set to the current ADC input signal
magnitude. This comparison continues until the monitor
period timer reaches a count of 1.
When the monitor period timer reaches a count of 1, the 13 bit
value in the peak level holding register is transferred to a
holding register, which can be read through the SPI port or
output through the SPORT serial interface. The monitor period
timer is reloaded with the value in the SMPR, and the
countdown is started. Also, the first input sample’s magnitude is
updated in the peak level holding register, and the comparison
and update procedure, as explained above, continues.
Figure 23 is a block diagram of the peak detector logic. The
PMV contains the absolute magnitude of the peak detected by
the peak detector logic.

The Signal monitoring block serves to characterize the signal
being digitized by the ADC. It operates in one to three modes
to compute the RMS Input Magnitude, Peak Magnitude, and/or
the number of samples that the Magnitude crosses a particular
threshold. Together these functions can be used to gain insight
into the signal characteristics and can be used to estimate the
Peak/Average ratio or even the shape of the CCDF curve (peak
to average ratio) of the input signal. This information can be
used to drive an AGC loop and to optimize the range of the
ADC in the presence of real world signals.
Figure 23. ADC Input Peak Detector Block Diagram
RMS/MS MAGNITUDE MODE (MODE BITS 00)
In this mode, the RMS or MS magnitude of the input port
signal is integrated (by adding an accumulator) over a
programmable time period (given by SMPR) to give the RMS or
MS magnitude of the input signal. This mode is set by
programming Logic 0 in the signal monitor mode bits of the
signal monitor control register or by setting the RMS
Magnitude Output Enable bit in the Signal monitor SPORT
Control Register. The 24-bit SMPR, representing the period
over which integration is performed, must be programmed
before activating this mode.
After enabling this mode, the value in the SMPR is loaded into a
monitor period timer, and the countdown is started
immediately. Each input sample is converted to floating point
format and squared. It is then converted to 11 bit fixed point
format and is added to the contents of a 24-bit holding register,
thus performing an accumulation. The integration continues
until the monitor period timer reaches a count of 1.
When the monitor period timer reaches a count of 1, the square
root of the value in the holding register is taken and transferred
to the power-monitor holding register (after some formatting),
which can be read through the SPI port or output through the

Preliminary Technical Data
For RMS magnitude mode, the value in the PMV is a 20 bit
fixed point number. The equation shown below can be used to
determine the RMS magnitude in dBFS from the MAG value in

power of 2, the 2nd term in the equation goes to zero.

For MS magnitude mode, the value in the PMV is a 20 bit fixed

After entering this mode, the value in the SMPR is loaded into a
monitor period timer, and the countdown is started. The
magnitude of the input signal is compared to the upper
threshold register (programmed previously) on each input clock
cycle. If the input signal has magnitude greater than the upper
threshold register, then the internal count register is
incremented by 1. The initial value of the internal count register
is set to 0. This comparison and increment of the internal count
register continues until the monitor period timer reaches a
count of 1.
When the monitor period timer reaches a count of 1, the value
in the internal count register is transferred to the signal monitor
holding register, which can be read through the SPI port or
output through the SPORT serial port. The monitor period
timer is reloaded with the value in the SMPR, and the
countdown is started. The internal count register is also cleared
to a value of 0. Figure 25 illustrates the threshold crossing logic.
The value in the PMV is the number of samples that have a

bit.

THRESHOLD CROSSING MODE (MODE BITS 1X)
Signal monitor Enable Bit
In this mode of operation, the magnitude of the input port
signal is monitored over a programmable time period (given by
SMPR) to count the number of times it crosses a certain
programmable threshold value. This mode is set by programming Logic 1x (where x is a don’t care bit) in the power-monitor
mode bits of the signal monitor control register or by setting the
Threshold Crossing Output Enable bit in the Signal monitor
SPORT Control Register. Before activating this mode, the user
needs to program the 24-bit SMPR and the 13-bit upper
threshold register for each individual input port. The same
upper threshold register is used for both signal monitoring and
gain control (see the ADC Overrange and Gain Control
section).
The signal monitor enable bit located in bit 0 or register 0x112
enables operation of the signal monitor block. If the signal
monitor function is not needed in a particular application then
this bit should be cleared to conserver power.
Measure Complex Power Bit
When this bit is set the part assumes that Channel A is
digitizing the I data and Channel B is digitizing the Q data for a
complex input signal (or vice versa). In this mode the power
reported is the sqrt(I^2 + Q^2). This complex power
measurement result is presented in the Channel A signal
monitor value register if the signal monitor mode bits are set to
00. The channel B signal monitor will continue to compute the
channel B value.

DC CORRECTION
Since the DC offset of the ADC can be significantly larger than
the signal we are trying to measure a simple DC correction
circuit is included to null the DC offset before measuring the
power. The DC Correction circuit can also be switched into the
main signal path but this may not be appropriate if the ADC is
digitizing a time-varying signal with significant DC content
such as GSM.
DC Correction Bandwidth
The DC correction circuit is basically a HP filter with a
programmable BW ranging between 0.15Hz and 1.2kHz. The
BW is controlled by writing the 4-bit DC correction register
located in bits 5:2 at address 0x10C. Table xx shows the BW
values for each of the 16 possible programmed values.

Setting bit 0 of register 0x10C enables the DC correction for use
in the Signal monitor calculations. The calculated DC
correction value can be added to the output data signal path by
setting bit 1 of register 0x10C.
SIGNAL MONITOR SPORT OUTPUT
The SPORT is a serial interface with three output pins, the SMI
SCLK (SPORT clock), SMI_SDFS (SPORT frame sync) and
SMI_SDO (SPORT data). The SPORT is the master, and drives
all three pins out of the chip.
SMI SCLK
The data and frame sync are driven on the positive edge of the
SMI SCLK. The SMI SCLK has three possible baud rates. They
are ½, ¼, or 1/8 the ADC clock rate, based on the SPORT
controls. The SMI SCLK can also be gated off when not sending
any data, based on the SMI SCLK sleep bit. Gating off the SMI
SCLK when it is not needed will reduce the coupling errors
back into the signal path if these prove to be a problem in the
system. This has the disadvantage of spreading the frequency
content of the clock so this can be left running to ease
frequency planning if desired.

The SMI_SDFS is the Serial Data Frame Sync, and defines the
start of a frame. One SPORT frame includes data from both
datapaths. The data from Datapath A is sent just after the frame
sync, followed by data from Datapath B.
SMI SDO
The SMI_SDO is the serial data out of the block. The data is
sent MSB first on the next positive edge after the SMI_SDFS.
Each data output block includes one or more of RMS
magnitude, Peak level, and Threshold Crossing values from
both datapaths in the stated order. If enabled the data is sent
RMS first, followed by Peak, and Threshold as shown in Figure
x.
DC Correction Readback
The current DC correction value can be read back in registers
0x10D and 0x10E for channel A and registers 0x10F and 0x110
for channel B. The DC correction value is a 14 bit value that
can span the entire input range of the ADC.

Enabled)
DC Correction Freeze
Setting the DC Correction Freeze bits freezes the DC correction
at its current state and continues to use the last updated value as
the DC correction value. Clearing this bit restarts the DC
correction and adds the currently calculated value to the data.

AD9640
Preliminary Technical Data
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) AND OUTPUT TEST
The AD9640 includes built-in test features to enable verification
of the integrity of each channel as well as to facilitate board level
debugging. A BIST (built-in self-test) feature is included which
verifies the integrity of the digital data path of the AD9640.
Various output test options are also provided to place
predictable values on the outputs of the AD9640.
BUILT IN SELF TEST (BIST)
The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected
AD9640 signal path. When enabled, the test runs from a user
selectable internal source (PN or sine) through the digital data
path starting at the ADC block output. The BIST sequence will
run for 256 cycles and stop. The BIST signature value for
channel A or B will be placed in registers 0x024 and 0x025. If
one channel is chosen, its BIST signature is written to the two
registers. If both channels are chosen, the two channels’ results
are XOR’ed and placed in the BIST signature register. The
outputs are not disconnected during this test, so the PN
sequence can be observed as it runs. The PN sequence can be
continued from its last value or start from the beginning based
on the value programmed in register 0x00E bit 2. The BIST
signature result will vary based on the channel configuration.
OUTPUT TEST MODES
The output test options are shown in table x.x. When an output
test mode is enabled, the analog section of the ADC is
disconnected from the digital backend blocks and the test
pattern is run through the output formatting block. As
indicated in table x.x some of the test patterns are subject to
output formatting and some are not. The seed value for the PN
sequence tests can be forced if the PN reset bits are used to hold
the generator in reset mode by setting bits 4 or 5 of register
0x0D. These tests can be performed with or without an analog
signal, but do require an encode clock.

synchronization options for syncing the internal blocks. The
sync feature is useful to guarantee synchronized operation
across multiple ADCs. The input clock divider and the signal
monitor block can be synchronized using the SYNC input. The
input clock divider can be enabled to sync on a single
occurrence of the sync signal or on every occurrence. The
signal monitor syncs on every SYNC input.
The SYNC input is internally synchronized to the sample clock,
however to ensure there is no timing uncertainty between
multiple parts the SYNC input signal should be synchronized to
the input clock signal. The SYNC input should be driven using
a single ended CMOS type signal.

Preliminary Technical Data
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9640 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to
configure the converter for specific functions or operations
through a structured register space provided inside the ADC.
This gives the user added flexibility and customization
depending on the application. Addresses are accessed via the
serial port and may be written to or read from via the port.
Memory is organized into bytes that can be further divided
down into fields, which are documented in the Memory Map
section. Detailed operational information can be found in the
Analog Devices user manual titled Interfacing to High Speed
ADCs via SPI at www.analog.com.
port to be used both to program the chip as well as read the
contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/
output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an
output at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
Data may be sent in MSB or in LSB first mode. MSB first is
default on power up and may be changed via the configuration
register. For more information about this and other features see
“Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI” at www.analog.com.

CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
tDS
Setup time between data and rising edge of SCLK
There are three pins that define the SPI of this ADC. They are
the SCLK/DFS, SDIO/DCS, and CSB pins (summarized inTable
x). The SCLK/DFS (serial clock) is used to synchronize the read
and write data presented from/to the ADC. The SDIO/DCS
(serial data input/output) is a dual purpose pin that allows data
to be sent and read from the internal ADC memory map
registers. The CSB (chip select bar) is an active low control that
enables or disables the read and write cycles.

Function
SCLK (Serial Clock) is the serial shift clock in. SCLK is
used to synchronize serial interface reads and writes.
SDIO (Serial Data Input/Output) is a dual purpose pin.
The typical role for this pin is an input and output
depending on the instruction being sent and the
relative position in the timing frame.
CSB (Chip Select Bar) is active low controls that gates
the read and write cycles.
The falling edge of the CSB in conjunction with the rising edge
of the SCLK determines the start of the framing. An example of
the serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure x
and Table x.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be
held low indefinitely which permanently enabling the device,
this is called streaming. The CSB may stall high between bytes
to allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high,
SPI functions are placed in a high impedance more. This mode
turns on any SPI pin secondary functions.
During an instruction phase a 16bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase and it’s length is determined
by the W0 and W1 bits. All data is composed of 8bit words. The
first bit of each individual byte of serial data indicates whether a
read or write command is issued. This allows the serial data
input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to
an output.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines if
the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing the serial
HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Table xError! Reference source not
found. comprise the physical interface between the user’s
programming device and the serial port of the AD9640. All
serial pins are inputs, which should be tied to an external pullup or pull-down resistor (suggested value 10 kΩ).
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either
FPGAs or mirocontrollers. This provides the user the ability use
an alternate method to program the ADC other than a
dedicated SPI controller.
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Since the
SCLK, CSB and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the
ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade the converter’s
performance. If the on board SPI Bus is utilized for other
devices it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus
and the AD9640 in order to keep these signals from
transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling
periods.
Some pins serve a dual function when the SPI interface is not
being used. When the pins are strapped to AVDD or ground
during device power on, they are associated with a specific
function. The TBD section describes the strappable functions
supported on the AD9640.

CONFIGURATION WITHOUT THE SPI
Memory Map Table.
In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers,
the SDIO/DCS, SCLK/DFS, MON SDO/OEB, and MON
SCLK/PDWN pins serve as stand alone CMOS compatible
control pins. When the device is powered up, it is assumed that
the user intends to use the pins as static control lines for the
duty cycle stabilizer, output data format, output enable, and
power down feature control. In this mode the CSB chip select
should be connected to AVDD, which will disable the serial
port interface.

MEMORY MAP
Reading the Memory Map Table
Each row in the memory map table has eight bit locations. The
memory map is roughly divided into four sections: chip
configuration and ID register map (Address 0x00 to Address
0x05), ADC setup, control and test (Addresses 0x08 to Address
0x25), transfer register map (Address 0xFF), and digital feature
control (Address 0x100 to Address 0x11B).
Starting from the right hand column, the memory map register
in Table x documents the default hex value for each hex address
shown. The column with the heading Bit 7 (MSB) is the start of
the default hex value given. For example, hex address 0x18,
reference select, has a hex default value of 0xC0. This means Bit
7 = 1, Bit 6 = 1, and the remaining bits are zeros. This setting is
the default reference selection setting. The default value uses a
2.0V peak to peak reference. For more information on this
function and others consult “Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via
SPI” at www.analog.com.
An explanation of various registers follows: “bit is set” is
synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or “writing Logic 1 for
the bit.” Similarly “clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to
Logic 0” or “writing Logic 0 for the bit.”
Transfer Register Map
Addresses 0x08 to 0x18 are shadowed. Writes to these
addresses do not affect the part operation until a transfer
command is issued by writing a 0x01 to address 0xFF setting
the transfer bit. This allows these registers to be updated
internally simultaneously when the transfer bit is set. The
internal update takes place when the transfer bit is set and the
bit autoclears.
Channel Specific Registers
Some channel setup functions such as the signal monitor
thresholds can be programmed differently for each channel. In
these cases channel address locations are internally duplicated
for each channel. These registers are designated in the
‘Parameter Name’ column of Table x as (local) registers. These
local registers can be accessed by setting the appropriate
Channel A or Channel B bits in register 0x05. If both bits are
set the subsequent write will affect both channels’ registers. In a
read cycle only Channel A or Channel B should be set to read
one of the two registers. If both bits are set during a SPI read
cycle the part returns the value for channel A. Registers
designated as (global) in the ‘Parameter Name’ column of Table
x affect the entire part or the channel features where
independent settings are not allowed between the channels.
The settings in register 0x05 do not affect the global registers.
SPI ACCESSIBLE FEATURES
A brief description of all features accessible via the SPI follows.
They are described in great detail in the Analog Devices user
manual titled Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI at
www.analog.com.
Modes: Allows the user to set either power-down or standby
mode.
Clock:
Allows the user to access the DCS via the SPI.
All address and bit locations that are not included in Table x are
currently not supported for this device. Unused bits of a valid
address location should be written with 0s. Writing to these
locations is required only when part of an address location is
open (for example, Address 0x18). If the entire address location
is open (for example, Address 0x13), then this address location
should not be written.
Offset:
Allows the user to digitally adjust the converter offset.
Default Values
Output Delay: Allows user to vary the strength of the output
drivers.
Open Locations
Coming out of reset, critical registers are loaded with default
values. The default values for the registers are given in the
Test IO: Allows the user to set test modes to have known data
on output bits.
Output Mode: Allows the user to setup outputs.
Output phase: Allows user to set the output clock polarity.

AD9640
APPLICATIONS
DESIGN GUIDELINES
When designing the AD9640 into a system, it is recommended
that, before starting design and layout, the designer become
familiar with these guidelines, which discuss the special circuit
connections and layout requirements required for certain pins.
Power and Ground Recommendations
When connecting power to the AD9640, it is recommended
that two separate 1.8 V supplies be used: one supply should be
used for analog (AVDD) and digital (DVDD) and a separate
supply for the digital outputs (DRVDD). The AVDD and
DVDD supplies, while derived from the same source, should be
isolated with a ferrite bead or filter choke and separate
decoupling capacitors. The user can employ several different
decoupling capacitors to cover both high and low frequencies.
These should be located close to the point of entry at the PC
board level and close to the part’s pins with minimal trace
length.
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and
PCB, overlay a silkscreen to partition the continuous plane on
the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie
points between the two during the reflow process. Using one
continuous plane with no partitions only guarantees one tie
point between the ADC and PCB. See the evaluation board for a
PCB layout example. For detailed information on packaging
and the PCB layout of chip scale packages, see the AN-772
Application Note, “A Design and Manufacturing Guide for the
Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP),” at www.analog.com.
CML
The CML pin should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1uF
capacitor, as shown in Figure 5.
RBIAS
The AD9640 requires the user to place a 10KΩ resistor between
the RBIAS pin and ground. This resister sets the master current
reference of the ADC core and should have at least a 1%
tolerance.
A single PC board ground plane should be sufficient when
using the AD9640. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the PC board’s analog, digital, and clock sections,
optimum performance is easily achieved.
Reference Decoupling
Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations
SPI Port
It is mandatory that the exposed paddle on the underside of the
ADC is connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the
best electrical and thermal performance of the AD9640. A
continuous exposed (no solder mask) copper plane on the PCB
should mate to the AD9640 exposed paddle, Pin 0. The copper
plane should have several vias to achieve the lowest possible
resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to flow through the
bottom of the PCB. These vias should be filled or plugged with
nonconductive epoxy.
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Since the
SCLK, CSB and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the
ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade the converter’s
performance. If the on board SPI Bus is utilized for other
devices it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus
and the AD9640 in order to keep these signals from
transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling
periods.
The VREF pin should be externally decoupled to ground with a
low ESR 1.0uF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1uF ceramic low
ESR capacitor.
