The AD9269 operates from a single 1.8 V analog power
supply and features a separate digital output driver supply
to accommodate 1.8 V to 3.3 V logic families.
The patented sample-and-hold circuit maintains excellent
performance for input frequencies up to 200 MHz and is
designed for low cost, low power, and ease of use.
An optional SPI selectable dc correction and quadrature
error correction (QEC) feature corrects for dc offset, gain,
and phase mismatches between the two channels.
A standard serial port interface (SPI) supports various
product features and functions, such as data output formatting, internal clock divider, power-down, DCO/data timing
and offset adjustments, and voltage reference modes.
The AD9269 is packaged in a 64-lead RoHS-compliant
LFCSP that is pin compatible with the AD9268 16-bit
ADC, the AD9258 14-bit ADC, the AD9251 14-bit ADC
the AD9231 12-bit ADC, the AD6659 12-bit baseband
diversity receiver, and the AD9204 10-bit ADC, enabling a
simple migration path between 10-bit and 16-bit converters
sampling from 20 MSPS to 125 MSPS.

AD9269
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9269 is a monolithic, dual-channel, 1.8 V supply, 16-bit,
20/40/65/80 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It features
a high performance sample-and-hold circuit and on-chip voltage
reference.
The product uses multistage differential pipeline architecture with
output error correction logic to provide 16-bit accuracy at 80 MSPS
data rates and to guarantee no missing codes over the full operating
temperature range.
The AD9269 incorporates an optional integrated dc correction and
quadrature error correction block (QEC) that corrects for dc
offset, gain, and phase mismatch between the two channels.
This functional block can be very beneficial to complex signal
processing applications such as direct conversion receivers.
The ADC also contains several features designed to maximize
flexibility and minimize system cost, such as programmable
clock and data alignment and programmable digital test pattern
generation. The available digital test patterns include built-in
deterministic and pseudorandom patterns, along with custom
user-defined test patterns entered via the serial port interface (SPI).
A differential clock input controls all internal conversion cycles.
An optional duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) compensates for wide
variations in the clock duty cycle while maintaining excellent
overall ADC performance.
The digital output data is presented in offset binary, gray code,
or twos complement format. A data output clock (DCO) is provided for each ADC channel to ensure proper latch timing with
receiving logic. Both 1.8 V and 3.3 V CMOS levels are supported,
and output data can be multiplexed onto a single output bus.
The AD9269 is available in a 64-lead RoHS-compliant LFCSP
and is specified over the industrial temperature range (−40°C to
+85°C).

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
The exposed paddle is the only ground connection for the chip.
The exposed paddle must be soldered to the AGND plane of the
user’s PCB. Soldering the exposed paddle to the user’s board
also increases the reliability of the solder joints and maximizes
the thermal capability of the package.

Typical θJA is specified for a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground
plane. As shown in Table 7, airflow improves heat dissipation,
which reduces θJA. In addition, metal in direct contact with the
package leads from metal traces, through holes, ground, and
power planes, reduces the θJA.

AD9269
THEORY OF OPERATION
In nondiversity applications, the AD9269 can be used as a baseband or direct downconversion receiver, in which one ADC is
used for I input data and the other is used for Q input data.
The AD9269 incorporates an optional, integrated dc correction
and quadrature error correction block (QEC) that can correct
for dc offset, gain, and phase mismatch between the two channels.
This functional block can be very beneficial to complex signal
processing applications such as direct conversion receivers.
Synchronization capability is provided to allow synchronized
timing between multiple channels or multiple devices.
Programming and control of the AD9269 are accomplished
using a 3-wire SPI-compatible serial interface.
ADC ARCHITECTURE
The AD9269 architecture consists of a multistage, pipelined ADC.
Each stage provides sufficient overlap to correct for flash errors in
the preceding stage. The quantized outputs from each stage are
combined into a final 16-bit result in the digital correction logic.
The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate with a
new input sample while the remaining stages operate with preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of the clock.
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The analog input to the AD9269 is a differential switchedcapacitor circuit designed for processing differential input signals.
This circuit can support a wide common-mode range while maintaining excellent performance. By using an input common-mode
voltage of midsupply, users can minimize signal-dependent errors
and achieve optimum performance.
The clock signal alternately switches the input circuit between
sample mode and hold mode (see Figure 38). When the input
circuit is switched to sample mode, the signal source must be
capable of charging the 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 injected from the output stage of the
driving source. In addition, low Q inductors or ferrite beads can
be placed on each leg of the input to reduce high differential
capacitance at the analog inputs and, therefore, achieve the
maximum bandwidth of the ADC. Such use of low Q inductors
or ferrite beads is required when driving the converter front end
at high IF frequencies. Either a shunt capacitor or two single-ended
capacitors can be placed on the inputs to provide a matching
passive network. This ultimately creates a low-pass filter at the
input to limit unwanted broadband noise. Refer to the AN-742
Application Note, Frequency Domain Response of SwitchedCapacitor ADCs; the AN-827 Application Note, A Resonant
Approach to Interfacing Amplifiers to Switched-Capacitor
ADCs (see www.analog.com); and the Analog Dialogue article,
“Transformer-Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters”
(Volume 39, April 2005) for more information. In general, the
precise values depend on the application.
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched-capacitor DAC
and an interstage residue amplifier (for example, a multiplying
digital-to-analog converter (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 consists of a flash ADC.
The output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and
passes the data to the CMOS output buffers. The output buffers
are powered from a separate (DRVDD) supply, allowing adjustment of the output voltage swing. During power-down, the output
buffers go into a high impedance state.

The AD9269 dual-channel ADC design can 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 200 MHz, using
appropriate low-pass or band-pass filtering at the ADC inputs
with little loss in ADC performance. Operation to 300 MHz
analog input is permitted, but it occurs at the expense of
increased ADC noise and distortion.

driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to
provide band limiting of the input signal.
The analog inputs of the AD9269 are not internally dc-biased.
Therefore, in ac-coupled applications, the user must provide a dc
bias externally. Setting the device so that VCM = AVDD/2 is
recommended for optimum performance, but the device can
function over a wider range with reasonable performance, as
shown in Figure 39.

For baseband applications below ~10 MHz where SNR is a key
parameter, differential transformer-coupling is the recommended
input configuration (see Figure 41). To bias the analog input, the
VCM voltage can be connected to the center tap of the secondary
winding of the transformer.

The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies below
a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can also cause
core saturation, which leads to distortion.
An on-board, common-mode voltage reference is included in the
design and is available from the VCM pin. The VCM pin must
be decoupled to ground by a 0.1 μF capacitor, as described in
the Applications Information section.
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve
the true SNR performance of the AD9269. For applications above
~10 MHz where SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun
coupling is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 42).
Differential Input Configurations
Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9269 in a
differential input configuration. For baseband applications, the
AD8138, ADA4937-2, and ADA4938-2 differential drivers provide
excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC.
An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at frequencies
in the second Nyquist zone is to use the AD8352 differential driver
(see Figure 43). Refer to the AD8352 data sheet for more
information.
The output common-mode voltage of the ADA4938-2 is easily

In any configuration, the value of Shunt Capacitor C is dependent
on the input frequency and source impedance and may need to
be reduced or removed. Table 9 displays the suggested values to set
the RC network. However, these values are dependent on the

Internal Reference Connection
A comparator within the AD9269 detects the potential at the
SENSE pin and configures the reference into two possible modes,
which are summarized in Table 10. If SENSE is grounded, the
reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal resistor
divider (see Figure 45), setting VREF to 1.0 V.

A single-ended input can provide adequate performance in

A stable and accurate 1.0 V voltage reference is built into the

External Reference Operation
Clock Input Options
The use of an external reference may be necessary to enhance
the gain accuracy of the ADC or to improve thermal drift
characteristics. Figure 47 shows the typical drift characteristics
of the internal reference in 1.0 V mode.
The AD9269 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, clock source jitter
is of the most concern, as described in the Jitter Considerations
section.
4
Figure 49 and Figure 50 show two preferred methods for clocking the AD9269 (at rates up to 6× the specified sample rate when
using the internal clock divider function). A low jitter clock source
is converted from a single-ended signal to a differential signal
using either an RF balun or an RF transformer.

The RF balun configuration is recommended for clock frequencies
between 125 MHz and 480 MHz, and the RF transformer is recommended for clock frequencies from 10 MHz to 200 MHz. The
back-to-back Schottky diodes across the transformer/balun
secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9269 to approximately 0.8 V p-p differential.

Figure 47. Typical VREF Drift
When the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD, the internal reference is
disabled, allowing the use of an external reference. An internal
reference buffer loads the external reference with an equivalent
7.5 kΩ load (see Figure 32). The internal buffer generates the
positive and negative full-scale references for the ADC core.
Therefore, the external reference must be limited to a maximum
of 1.0 V.
This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of the clock
from feeding through to other portions of the AD9269 while preserving the fast rise and fall times of the signal that are critical to
a low jitter performance.

(see Figure 48) and require no external bias.

The AD9269 clock divider can be synchronized using the external
SYNC input. Bits[2:1] in Register 0x100 allow the clock divider
to be resynchronized 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 AD9269 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) that retimes
the nonsampling (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 AD9269. Noise and distortion performance are nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles with the DCS
on, as shown in Figure 54.

Input Clock Divider
The AD9269 contains an input clock divider with the ability
to divide the input clock by integer values between 1 and 6.
Optimum performance is obtained by enabling the internal
duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) when using divide ratios other than
1, 2, or 4.
Jitter in the rising edge of the input is still of concern and is not
easily reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The duty
cycle control loop does not function for clock rates of less than
20 MHz nominally. The loop has a time constant associated
with it that must be considered in applications in which the
clock rate can change dynamically. A wait time of 1.5 μs to 5 μs
is required after the dynamic clock frequency increases or decreases
before the DCS loop is relocked to the input signal.

Jitter Considerations
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality
of the clock input. The degradation in SNR from the low frequency SNR (SNRLF) at a given input frequency (fINPUT) due to
jitter (tJRMS) can be calculated by
As shown in Figure 56, the analog core power dissipated by the
AD9269 is proportional to its sample rate. The digital power dissipation of the CMOS outputs is determined primarily by the
strength of the digital drivers and the load on each output bit.
SNRHF = −10 log[(2π × fINPUT × tJRMS)2 + 10 ( − SNRLF /10) ]
The maximum DRVDD current (IDRVDD) can be calculated as
In the previous equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the
clock input jitter specification. IF undersampling applications
are particularly sensitive to jitter, as illustrated in Figure 55.
IDRVDD = VDRVDD × CLOAD × fCLK × N
where N is the number of output bits (34, in the case of the
AD9269).

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases in
which aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9269.
To avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise, keep power
supplies for clock drivers separate from the ADC output driver
supplies. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators make the best
clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type of source
(by gating, dividing, or another method), it should be retimed by
the original clock at the last step.
This maximum current occurs when every output bit switches
on every clock cycle, that is, a full-scale square wave at the Nyquist
frequency of 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.
For more information, see the AN-501 Application Note and the
AN-756 Application Note, available on www.analog.com.
Reducing the capacitive load presented to the output drivers can
minimize digital power consumption. The data in Figure 56 was
taken using the same operating conditions as those used for the
Typical Performance Characteristics, with a 5 pF load on each
output driver.
Rev. 0 | Page 24 of 40
AD9269
The AD9269 is placed in power-down mode either by the SPI
port or by asserting the PDWN pin high. In this state, the ADC
typically dissipates 1 mW. During power-down, the output
drivers are placed in a high impedance state. Asserting the PDWN
pin low returns the AD9269 to its normal operating mode. Note
that PDWN is referenced to the digital output driver supply
(DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply voltage.
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 powerdown mode and then must be recharged when returning to normal
operation. As a result, 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.
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC
in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode allows
the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when
faster wake-up times are required. See the Memory Map section
for more details.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The AD9269 output drivers can be configured to interface with
1.8 V to 3.3 V CMOS logic families. Output data can also be multiplexed onto a single output bus to reduce the total number of
traces required.
The CMOS 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 and
may affect converter performance.
Applications requiring the ADC to drive large capacitive loads
or large fanouts may require external buffers or latches.
The output data format can be selected to be either offset binary
or twos complement by setting the SCLK/DFS pin when operating
in the external pin mode (see Table 11).

Voltage at Pin
AGND
DRVDD
SCLK/DFS
Offset binary (default)

DCS disabled
DCS enabled (default)
As detailed in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High
Speed ADCs via SPI, the data format can be selected for offset
binary, twos complement, or gray code when using the SPI control.
Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)
The AD9269 provides a flexible three-state ability for the digital
output pins. The three-state mode is enabled by the OEB pin or
through the SPI interface. If the OEB pin is low, the output data
drivers and DCOs are enabled. If the OEB pin is high, the output
data drivers and DCOs are placed in a high impedance state.
This OEB function is not intended for rapid access to the data
bus. Note that OEB is referenced to the digital output driver
supply (DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply voltage.
When using the SPI interface, the data outputs and DCO of
each channel can be independently three-stated by using the
output disable (OEB) bit, Bit 4 in Register 0x14.
TIMING
The AD9269 provides latched data with a pipeline delay of nine
clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation delay (tPD)
after the rising edge of the clock signal.
Minimize the length of the output data lines and loads placed
on them to reduce transients within the AD9269. These transients
may degrade converter dynamic performance.
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9269 is 3 MSPS. At
clock rates below 3 MSPS, dynamic performance may degrade.
Data Clock Output (DCO)
The AD9269 provides two data clock output (DCO) signals that
are designed to capture the data in an external register. The CMOS
data outputs are valid on the rising edge of DCO unless the DCO
clock polarity has been changed via the SPI. See Figure 2 and
Figure 3 for a graphical timing description.

AD9269
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) AND OUTPUT TEST
The AD9269 includes a built-in test feature that is designed to
enable verification of the integrity of each channel as well as to
facilitate board-level debugging. A built-in self-test (BIST) feature
that verifies the integrity of the digital datapath of the AD9269
is included. Various output test options are also provided to place
predictable values on the outputs of the AD9269.
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST)
The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected
AD9269 signal path. Perform the BIST test after a reset to ensure
that the part is in a known state. During BIST, data from an internal
pseudorandom noise (PN) source is driven through the digital
datapath of both channels, starting at the ADC block output.
At the datapath output, CRC logic calculates a signature from
the data. The BIST sequence runs for 512 cycles and then stops.
When the sequence is complete, the BIST compares the signature
results with a predetermined value. If the signatures match, the
BIST sets Bit 0 in Register 0x24, signifying that the test passed.
If the BIST test failed, Bit 0 in Register 0x24 is cleared. The outputs
are connected during this test, so the PN sequence can be observed
as it runs. Writing the value 0x05 to Register 0x0E runs the BIST.
This enables Bit 0 (BIST enable) in Register 0x0E and resets the PN
sequence generator, Bit 2 (BIST init) in Register 0x0E. At the
completion of the BIST, Bit 0 in Register 0x24 is automatically
cleared. The PN sequence can be continued from its last value
by writing a 0 in Bit 2 in Register 0x0E. However, if the PN
sequence is not reset, the signature calculation does not equal the
predetermined value at the end of the test. At that point, the user
must rely on verifying the output data.
OUTPUT TEST MODES
The output test options are described in Table 17 at Address 0x0D.
When an output test mode is enabled, the analog section of the
ADC is disconnected from the digital back end blocks, and the
test pattern is run through the output formatting block. Some of
the test patterns are subject to output formatting, and some are
not. The PN generators from the PN sequence tests can be reset
by setting Bit 4 or Bit 5 in Register 0x0D. These tests can be performed with or without an analog signal (if present, the analog
signal is ignored), but they do require an encode clock. For more
information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High
Speed ADCs via SPI.

AD9269
CHANNEL/CHIP SYNCHRONIZATION
The AD9269 has a SYNC input that offers the user flexible
synchronization options for synchronizing sample clocks
across multiple ADCs. The input clock divider can be enabled
to synchronize on a single occurrence of the SYNC signal or on
every occurrence. The SYNC input is internally synchronized to
the sample clock; however, to ensure that there is no timing
uncertainty between multiple parts, the SYNC input signal should
be externally synchronized to the input clock signal, meeting the
setup and hold times that are shown in Table 5. Drive the SYNC
input using a single-ended CMOS-type signal.

mismatch in the baseband I and Q signal chains may have
reduced image suppression. The AD9269 QEC still corrects the
systematic imbalances.
QEC and DC Correction Range
–30.0M
The integrated quadrature error correction (QEC) algorithm of
the AD9269 attempts to measure and correct the amplitude and
phase imbalances of the I and Q signal paths to achieve higher
levels of image suppression than is achievable by analog means
alone. These errors can be corrected in an adapted manner, in
which the I and Q gain and quadrature phase mismatches are
constantly estimated and corrected, allowing for constant
tracking of slow changes in mismatches that are due to supply
and temperature.
When the QEC is enabled and a correction value has been
calculated, the value remains active as long as any of the QEC
functions (DC, gain, or phase correction) are being used.
–37.5M
In a multicarrier communication system, this can be even more
problematic because carriers of widely different power levels
can interfere with one another. For example, a large carrier
centered at +f1 can have an image appear at −f1 that may be
much larger than the desired carrier at −f1.
The default configuration on the AD9269 has the QEC and dc
correction blocks disabled, and Bits[2:0] in Register 0x110 must
be pulled high to enable the correction blocks. The quadrature
gain, quadrature phase, and dc correction algorithms can also
be disabled independently for system debugging or to save
power by pulling Bits[2:0] low in Register 0x110.
AMPLITUDE (dBFS)
In direct conversion or other quadrature systems, mismatches
between the real (I) and imaginary (Q) signal paths cause frequencies in the positive spectrum to image into the negative
spectrum, and vice versa. From an RF point of view, this is
equivalent to information above the local oscillator (LO)
frequency interfering with information below the LO frequency,
and vice versa. These mismatches may occur from gain and/or
phase mismatches in the analog quadrature demodulator or in
any other mismatches between the I and Q signal chains. In a
single-carrier zero-IF system where the carrier has been placed
symmetrically around dc, this causes self-distortion of the carrier
as the two sidebands fold onto one another and degrade the
error vector magnitude (EVM) of the signal.

In applications where constant tracking of the dc offsets and
quadrature errors are not needed, the algorithms can be
independently frozen to save power. When frozen, the image
and LO leakage (dc) correction are still performed, but changes
are no longer tracked. Bits[5:3] in Register 0x110 disable the
respective correction when frozen.

AMPLITUDE (dBFS)
In a direct conversion receiver subsystem, LO to RF leakage of
the quadrature modulator shows up as dc offsets at baseband.
These offsets are added to dc offsets in the baseband signal
paths, and both contribute to a carrier at dc. In a zero-IF receiver,
this dc energy can cause problems because it appears in band of
a desired channel. As part of the QEC function, the dc offset is
suppressed by applying a low frequency notch filter to form
a null around dc.
AD9269
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
SPI functions are placed in high impedance mode. This mode
turns on any secondary functions of the SPI function pins.
The AD9269 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. The SPI provides
added flexibility and customization, depending on the application.
Addresses are accessed via the serial port and can be written to
or read from via the port. Memory is organized into bytes that
can be further divided into fields, which are documented in the
Memory Map section. For detailed operational information, see
the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs
via SPI.
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase, and the length of the data
stream is determined by the W1 and W0 bits, as shown in
Figure 59.
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
All data is composed of 8-bit words. The first bit of the first byte in
a multibyte serial data transfer frame indicates whether a read command or a write command is issued. This allows the serial data
input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to
an output at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK, the SDIO, and
the CSB (see Table 14). The SCLK (a serial clock) is used to synchronize the read and write data presented from and to the ADC.
The SDIO (serial data input/output) is a dual-purpose pin that
allows data to be sent to and read from the internal ADC
memory map registers. The CSB (chip select bar) is an activelow control that enables or disables the read and write cycles.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines
whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing
the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to 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.
Table 14. Serial Port Interface Pins
Data can be sent in MSB-first mode or in LSB-first mode. MSB
first is the default on power-up and can be changed via the SPI
port configuration register. For more information about this
and other features, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing
to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Table 14 constitute the physical interface
between the programming device of the user and the serial port
of the AD9269. The SCLK pin and the CSB pin function as inputs
when using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is bidirectional,
functioning as an input during write phases and as an output
during readback.
The falling edge of the CSB, in conjunction with the rising edge
of SCLK, determines the start of the framing. An example of the
serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 59 and
Table 5.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either
FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI configuration
is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note, Microcontroller-Based Serial Port Interface (SPI) Boot Circuit.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be
held low indefinitely, permanently enabling the device; this is
called streaming. The CSB can stall high between bytes to allow
for additional external timing. When the CSB is tied high, the

The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK signal, the CSB signal, and the SDIO signal are typically
asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can
degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for
other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between this
bus and the AD9269 to prevent these signals from transitioning
at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.
SPI ACCESSIBLE FEATURES
SDIO/DCS and SCLK/DFS serve a dual function when the
SPI interface is not being used. When the pins are strapped to
DRVDD or ground during device power-on, they are associated
with a specific function. The Digital Outputs section describes
the strappable functions supported on the AD9269.

CONFIGURATION WITHOUT THE SPI
Test I/O
In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers,
the SDIO/DCS pin, the SCLK/DFS pin, the OEB pin, and the
PDWN pin serve as standalone 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, connect the CSB chip select to DRVDD,
which disables the serial port interface.
Table 16 provides a brief description of the general features that
are accessible via the SPI. These features are described in detail
in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs
via SPI. The AD9269 part-specific features are described in
detail in Table 17.

AD9269
MEMORY MAP
READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE
DEFAULT VALUES
Each row in the memory map register table (see Table 17) contains
eight bit locations. The memory map is divided into four sections:
the chip configuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02);
the device index and transfer registers (Address 0x05 and
Address 0xFF); the program registers, including setup, control,
and test (Address 0x08 to Address 0x2E); and the digital feature
control registers (Address 0x100 to Address 0x11D).
After the AD9269 is reset, critical registers are loaded with default
values. The default values for the registers are given in the memory
map register table (see Table 17).
Table 17 documents the default hexadecimal value for each
hexadecimal address shown. The column with the heading Bit 7
(MSB) is the start of the default hexadecimal value given. For
example, Address 0x05, the channel index register, has a hexadecimal default value of 0x03. This means that in Address 0x05,
Bits[7:2] = 0, and the remaining Bits[1:0] = 1. This setting is
the default channel index setting. The default value results in
both ADC channels receiving the next write command. For
more information on this function and others, see the AN-877
Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This
document details the functions controlled by Register 0x00 to
Register 0xFF. The remaining registers, Register 0x100 to
Register 0x11D, are documented in the Memory Map Register
Descriptions section following Table 17.
OPEN LOCATIONS
All address and bit locations that are not included in the SPI
map are not currently 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 0x05). If the entire address location
is open, it is omitted from the SPI map (for example, Address 0x13)
and should not be written.
Logic Levels
An explanation of logic level terminology follows:
•
•
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.”
“Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.”
Transfer Register Map
Address 0x08 to Address 0x18 are shadowed. Writes to these
addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer command
is issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the transfer bit.
This allows these registers to be updated internally and simultaneously when the transfer bit is set. The internal update takes
place when the transfer bit is set, and then the bit autoclears.
Channel-Specific Registers
Some channel setup functions can be programmed differently
for each channel. In these cases, channel address locations are
internally duplicated for each channel. These registers and bits
are designated in the memory map register table as local. These
local registers and bits can be accessed by setting the appropriate
Channel A (Bit 0) or Channel B (Bit 1) bits in Register 0x05.
If both bits are set, the subsequent write affects the registers of
both channels. In a read cycle, set only Channel A or Channel B
to read one of the two registers. If both bits are set during an
SPI read cycle, the part returns the value for Channel A.
Registers and bits designated as global in the memory map
register table affect the entire part or the channel features for
which independent settings are not allowed between channels.
The settings in Register 0x05 do not affect the global registers
and bits.

Bit 0—Master Sync Enable
For additional information about functions controlled in
Register 0x00 to Register 0xFF, see the AN-877 Application
Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
Bit 0 must be high to enable any of the sync functions.
USR2 (Register 0x101)
Bit 7—Enable OEB (Pin 47)
Sync Control (Register 0x100)
Bits[7:3]—Open
Normally set high, this bit allows Pin 47 to function as the output
enable. If this bit is set low, it disables Pin 47.
Bit 2—Clock Divider Next Sync Only
If the master sync enable bit (Address 0x100, Bit 0) and the
clock divider sync enable bit (Address 0x100, Bit 1) are high,
Bit 2 allows the clock divider to sync to the first sync pulse it
receives and to ignore the rest. The clock divider sync enable bit
(Address 0x100, Bit 1) resets after it syncs.
Bit 1—Clock Divider Sync Enable
Bit 1 gates the sync pulse to the clock divider. The sync signal is
enabled when Bit 1 and Bit 0 are high, and the device is operating
in continuous sync mode as long as Bit 2 of the sync control is low.
Bits [6:4]—Open
Bit 3—Enable GCLK Detect
Normally set high, this bit enables a circuit that detects encode
rates below ~5 MSPS. When a low encode rate is detected, an
internal oscillator, GCLK, is enabled to ensure the proper operation
of several circuits. If this bit is set low, the detector is disabled.
Bit 2—Run GCLK
This bit enables the GCLK oscillator. For some applications
with encode rates below 10 MSPS, it may be preferable to set
this bit high to supersede the GCLK detector.

using frozen values, and the estimation of the quadrature errors
is halted.
These bits adjust the time constants of the dc control feedback

AD9269
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DESIGN GUIDELINES
Before starting design and layout of the AD9269 as a system,
it is recommended that 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 AD9269, it is strongly recommended that two separate supplies be used. Use one 1.8 V supply
for analog (AVDD), and use a separate 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply for the
digital output supply (DRVDD). If a common 1.8 V AVDD and
DRVDD supply must be used, the AVDD and DRVDD domains
must be isolated with a ferrite bead or filter choke and separate
decoupling capacitors. Several different decoupling capacitors
can be used to cover both high and low frequencies. Locate these
capacitors close to the point of entry at the PCB level and close
to the pins of the part, with minimal trace length.
A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the
AD9269. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance
is easily achieved.
Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Sink Recommendations
The exposed paddle (Pin 0) is the only ground connection for
the AD9269; therefore, it must be connected to analog ground
(AGND) on the customer’s PCB. To achieve the best electrical
and thermal performance, mate an exposed (no solder mask)
continuous copper plane on the PCB to the AD9269 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. Fill or plug these vias with nonconductive epoxy.
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and
the PCB, a silkscreen should be overlaid to partition the continuous
plane on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides
several tie points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow
process. Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees
only one tie point between the ADC and the PCB. For detailed
information about packaging and 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.
VCM
The VCM pin should be decoupled to ground with a 0.1 μF
capacitor, as shown in Figure 41.
RBIAS
The AD9269 requires that a 10 kΩ resistor be placed between
the RBIAS pin and ground. This resistor sets the master current
reference of the ADC core and should have at least a 1% tolerance.
Reference Decoupling
Externally decouple the VREF pin to ground with a low ESR,
1.0 μF capacitor in parallel with a low ESR, 0.1 μF ceramic
capacitor.
SPI Port
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the
ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, it
may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the
AD9269 to keep these signals from transitioning at the converter
inputs during critical sampling periods.
