GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9854 digital synthesizer is a highly integrated device
that uses advanced DDS technology, coupled with two internal
high-speed, high-performance quadrature D/A converters and a
comparator to form a digitally-programmable I and Q synthesizer
function. When referenced to an accurate clock source, the
AD9854 generates highly stable, frequency-phase-amplitudeprogrammable sine and cosine outputs that can be used as an
agile L.O. in communications, radar, and many other applications.
The AD9854’s innovative high-speed DDS core provides 48-bit
frequency resolution (1 microHertz tuning steps). Phase truncation to 17 bits assures excellent SFDR. The AD9854’s circuit

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD9854 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.

AVDD
Six-Bit Parallel Address Inputs for Program Registers. Used only in parallel programming mode. A0, A1,
and A2 have a second function when the serial programming mode is selected. See immediately below.
Allows a RESET of the serial communications bus that is unresponsive due to improper programming protocol. Resetting the serial bus in this manner does not affect previous programming nor
does it invoke the “default” programming values seen in the Table V. Active HIGH.
Unidirectional Serial Data Output for Use in 3-Wire Serial Communication Mode.
Bidirectional Serial Data Input/Output for Use in 2-Wire Serial Communication Mode.
Bidirectional Frequency Update Signal. Direction is selected in control register. If selected as an input,
a rising edge will transfer the contents of the programming registers to the internal works of the IC for
processing. If I/O UD is selected as an output, an output pulse (low to high) of eight system clock cycle
duration indicates that an internal frequency update has occurred.
Write Parallel Data to Programming Registers. Shared function with SCLK. Serial clock signal
associated with the serial programming bus. Data is registered on the rising edge. This pin is shared with
WRB when the parallel mode is selected.
Read Parallel Data from Programming Registers. Shared function with CSB. Chip-select signal
associated with the serial programming bus. Active LOW. This pin is shared with RDB when
the parallel mode is selected.
Multifunction Pin According to the Mode of Operation Selected in the Programming Control Register.
If in the FSK mode logic low selects F1, logic high selects F2. If in the BPSK mode, logic low selects
Phase 1, logic high selects Phase 2. If in the Chirp mode, logic high engages the HOLD function
causing the frequency accumulator to halt at its current location. To resume or commence Chirp,
logic low is asserted.
Must First Be Selected in the Programming Control Register to Function. A logic high will cause the
I and Q DAC outputs to ramp-up from zero-scale to full-scale amplitude at a preprogrammed rate.
Logic low causes the full-scale output to ramp-down to zero-scale at the preprogrammed rate.

Common Bypass Capacitor Connection for Both I and Q DACs. A 0.01 µF chip cap from this pin to
AVDD improves harmonic distortion and SFDR slightly. No connect is permissible (slight SFDR
degradation).
Common Connection for Both I and Q DACs to Set the Full-Scale Output Current. RSET = 39.9/IOUT.
Normal RSET range is from 8 kΩ (5 mA) to 2 kΩ (20 mA).
This pin provides the connection for the external zero compensation network of the REFCLK
Multiplier’s PLL loop filter. The zero compensation network consists of a 1.3 kΩ resistor in series
with a 0.01 µF capacitor. The other side of the network should be connected to AVDD as close as
possible to Pin 60. For optimum phase noise performance, the REFCLK Multiplier can be bypassed
by setting the “Bypass PLL” bit in control register 1E.
Differential REFCLK Enable. A high level of this pin enables the differential clock inputs, REFCLK
and REFCLKB (Pins 69 and 68 respectively). The minimum differential signal amplitude
required is 800 mV p-p. The centerpoint or common-mode range of the differential signal ranges
from 1.6 V to 1.9 V.
The Complementary (180 Degrees Out-of-Phase) Differential Clock Signal. User should tie this pin
high or low when single-ended clock mode is selected. Same signal levels as REFCLK.
Single-Ended Reference Clock Input or One of Two Differential Clock Signals. Normal 3.3 V CMOS
logic levels or 1 V p-p sine wave centered about 1.6 V.
Selects Between Serial Programming Mode (Logic LOW) and Parallel Programming Mode
(Logic High).
Initializes the serial/parallel programming bus to prepare for user programming; sets programming
registers to a “do-nothing” state defined by the default values seen in the Table V. Active on logic
high. Asserting MASTER RESET is essential for proper operation upon power-up.

Figures 14 and 15 show the effects of utilizing “sweet spots” in the tuning range of a DDS. Figure 14 represents a tuning word that
accentuates the aberrations associated with truncation in the DDS algorithm. Figure 16 is essentially the same output frequency (a
few tuning codes over), but it displays much fewer spurs on the output due to the selection of a tuning “sweet spot.” Consideration
should be given to all DDS applications to exploit the benefit of sweet spot tuning.

architecture allows the generation of simultaneous quadrature outputs at frequencies up to 150 MHz, which can be digitally tuned
at a rate of up to 100 million new frequencies per second. The
(externally filtered) sine wave output can be converted to a
square wave by the internal comparator for agile clock generator
applications. The device provides 14 bits of digitally-controlled
phase modulation and single-pin PSK. The on-board 12-bit I
and Q DACs, coupled with the innovative DDS architecture,
provide excellent wideband and narrowband output SFDR. The
Q-DAC can also be configured as a user-programmable control
DAC if the quadrature function is not desired. When configured
with the on-board comparator, the 12-bit control DAC facilitates
static duty cycle control in the high-speed clock generator applications. Two 12-bit digital multipliers permit programmable
amplitude modulation, shaped on/off keying and precise amplitude control of the quadrature outputs. Chirp functionality is
also included which facilitates wide bandwidth frequency
sweeping applications. The AD9854’s programmable 4×–20×
REFCLK multiplier circuit generates the 300 MHz clock internally from a lower frequency external reference clock. This saves
the user the expense and difficulty of implementing a 300 MHz
clock source. Direct 300 MHz clocking is also accommodated
with either single-ended or differential inputs. Single-pin conventional FSK and the enhanced spectral qualities of “ramped”
FSK are supported. The AD9854 uses advanced 0.35 micron
CMOS technology to provide this high level of functionality on
a single 3.3 V supply.
An externally generated Update Clock is internally synchronized
with the system clock to prevent partial transfer of program
register information due to violation of data setup or hold times.
This mode gives the user complete control of when updated
program information becomes effective. The default mode is set
for internal update clock (Int Update Clk control register bit is
logic high). To switch to external update clock mode, the Int
Update Clk register bit must be set to logic low. The internal
update mode generates automatic, periodic update pulses whose
time period is set by the user.
An internally generated Update Clock can be established by
programming the 32-bit Update Clock registers (address 16–19
hex) and setting the Int Update Clk (address 1F hex) control
register bit to logic high. The update clock down-counter function
operates at the system clock/2 (150 MHz maximum) and counts
down from a 32-bit binary value (programmed by the user).
When the count reaches 0, an automatic I/O Update of the DDS
output or functions is generated. The update clock is internally
and externally routed on Pin 20 to allow users to synchronize
programming of update information with the update clock rate.
The time period between update pulses is given as:
(N+1) × (SYSTEM CLOCK PERIOD × 2)
where N is the 32-bit value programmed by the user. Allowable range of N is from 1 to (232 –1). The internally generated
update pulse output on Pin 20 has a fixed high time of eight system
clock cycles.
Shaped On/Off Keying
The AD9854 is available in a space-saving 80-lead LQFP
surface mount package and a thermally-enhanced 80-lead LQFP
package. The AD9854 is pin-for-pin compatible with the AD9852
single-tone synthesizer. It is specified to operate over the extended
industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
Allows user to control the ramp-up and ramp-down time of an
“on/off” emission from the I and Q DACs. This function is
used in “burst transmissions” of digital data to reduce the adverse
spectral impact of short, abrupt bursts of data. Users must first
enable the digital multipliers by setting the OSK EN bit (control register address 20 hex) to logic high in the control register.
OVERVIEW
Otherwise, if the OSK EN bit is set low, the digital multipliers
responsible for amplitude-control are bypassed and the I and Q
DAC outputs are set to full-scale amplitude. In addition to setting the OSK EN bit, a second control bit, OSK INT (also at
address 20 hex), must be set to logic high. Logic high selects the
linear internal control of the output ramp-up or ramp-down
function. A logic low in the OSK INT bit switches control of
the digital multipliers to user programmable 12-bit registers
allowing users to dynamically shape the amplitude transition in
practically any fashion. These 12-bit registers, labeled “Output
Shape Key I and Output Shape Key Q” are located at addresses
21 through 24 hex in Table V. The maximum output amplitude
is a function of the RSET resistor and is not programmable when
OSK INT is enabled.
The AD9854 quadrature output digital synthesizer is a highly
flexible device that will address a wide range of applications.
The device consists of an NCO with 48-bit phase accumulator,
programmable reference clock multiplier, inverse sinc filters,
digital multipliers, two 12-bit/300 MHz DACs, high-speed
analog comparator, and interface logic. This highly integrated
device can be configured to serve as a synthesized LO, agile clock
generator, and FSK/BPSK modulator. The theory of operation of
the functional blocks of the device, and a technical description
of the signal flow through a DDS device, can be found in a
tutorial from Analog Devices called “A Technical Tutorial on
Digital Signal Synthesis.” This tutorial is available on CD-ROM
and information on obtaining it can be found at the Analog
Devices DDS website at www.analog.com/dds. The tutorial
also provides basic applications information for a variety of
digital synthesis implementations. The DDS background subject
matter is not covered in this data sheet; the functions and features
of the AD9854 will be individually discussed herein.
ABRUPT ON/OFF KEYING
USING THE AD9854
Internal and External Update Clock
This function is comprised of a bidirectional I/O pin, Pin 20, and a
programmable 32-bit down-counter. In order for programming
changes to be transferred from the I/O Buffer registers to the active
core of the DDS, a clock signal (low to high edge) must be externally
supplied to Pin 20 or internally generated by the 32-bit Update Clock.

The I-pathway is similar, except that no alternate 12-bit Q-DAC source register is provided.
Next, the transition time from zero-scale to full-scale must
be programmed. The transition time is a function of two fixed
elements and one variable. The variable element is the programmable 8-bit RAMP RATE COUNTER. This is a down-counter
being clocked at the system clock rate (300 MHz max) that outputs one pulse whenever the counter reaches zero. This pulse is
routed to a 12-bit counter that increments one LSB for every
pulse received. The outputs of the 12-bit counter are connected
to the 12-bit digital multiplier. When the digital multiplier has a
value of all zeros at its inputs, the input signal is multiplied
by zero, producing zero-scale. When the multiplier has a value
of all ones, the input signal is multiplied by a value of one, producing full-scale. There are 4094 remaining fractional multiplier
values that will produce output amplitudes corresponding to
their binary values.
The two fixed elements are the clock period of the system clock,
which drives the Ramp Rate Counter, and the 4096 amplitude
steps between zero-scale and full-scale. To give an example,
assume that the System Clock of the AD9854 is 100 MHz (10 ns
period). If the Ramp Rate Counter is programmed for a minimum
count of five, it will take two system clock periods (one rising
edge loads the count-down value, the next edge decrements the
counter from five to four). The relationship of the 8-bit countdown value to the time period between output pulses is given as:
(N+1) × SYSTEM CLOCK PERIOD,
where N is the 8-bit count-down value. It will take 4096 of these
pulses to advance the 12-bit up-counter from zero-scale to fullscale. Therefore, the minimum shaped keying ramp time for a
100 MHz system clock is 4096 × 6 × 10 ns = approximately 246 µs.
The maximum ramp time will be 4096 × 256 × 10 ns = approximately 10.5 µs.
Finally, changing the logic state of Pin 30, “shaped keying” will
automatically perform the programmed output envelope functions
when OSK INT is high. A logic high on Pin 30 causes the outputs to linearly ramp up to full-scale amplitude and hold until
the logic level is changed to low, causing the outputs to ramp
down to zero-scale.
I and Q DACs
The 300 MSPS (maximum) sine and cosine wave outputs of the
DDS. Their maximum output amplitudes are set by the DAC
RSET resistor at Pin 56. These are current-out DACs with a
full-scale maximum output of 20 mA; however, a nominal 10 mA
REV. 0
output current provides best spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR)
performance. The value of RSET = 39.93/IOUT, where IOUT is in
amps. DAC output compliance specification limits the maximum
voltage developed at the outputs to –0.5 V to +1 V. Voltages
developed beyond this limitation will cause excessive DAC
distortion and possibly permanent damage. The user must choose
a proper load impedance to limit the output voltage swing to
the compliance limits. Both DAC outputs should be terminated
equally for best SFDR, especially at higher output frequencies
where harmonic distortion errors are more prominent.
Both DACs are preceded by inverse SIN(x)/x filters (a.k.a. inverse
sinc filters) that precompensate for DAC output amplitude variations over frequency to achieve flat amplitude response from dc
to Nyquist. Digital multipliers follow the inverse sinc filters to
allow amplitude control, amplitude modulation and amplitude
shaped keying. The inverse sinc filters (address 20 hex, Bypass
Inv Sinc bit)) and digital multipliers (address 20 hex, OSK EN
bit) can be bypassed for power conservation by setting those bits
high. Both DACs can be powered down by setting the DAC PD
bit high (address 1D of control register) when not needed.
I-DAC outputs are designated as IOUT1 and IOUT1B, Pins
48 and 49 respectively. Q-DAC outputs are designated as IOUT2
AND IOUT2B, Pins 52 and 51 respectively.
Control DAC
The 12-bit Q DAC can be reconfigured to perform as a “control”
or auxiliary DAC. The control DAC output can provide dc
control levels to external circuitry, generate ac signals, or enable
duty cycle control of the on-board comparator. When the SRC
QDAC bit in control register (parallel address 1F hex) is set
high, the Q DAC inputs are switched from internal 12-bit Q
data source (default setting) to external 12-bit, twos-complement
data, supplied by the user. Data is channeled through the serial or
parallel interface to the 12-bit Q DAC register (address 26 and 27
hex) at a maximum 100 MHz data rate. This DAC is clocked at
the system clock, 300 MSPS (maximum), and has the same maximum output current capability as that of the I DAC. The single
RSET resistor on the AD9854 sets the full-scale output current
for both DACs. The control DAC can be separately powered
down for power conservation when not needed by setting the
Q DAC POWER-DOWN bit high (address 1D hex). Control
DAC outputs are designated as IOUT2 and IOUT2B (Pins 52
and 51 respectively).

The REFCLK Multiplier function can be bypassed to allow
direct clocking of the AD9854 from an external clock source.
The system clock for the AD9854 is either the output of the
REFCLK Multiplier (if it is engaged) or the REFCLK inputs.
REFCLK may be either a single-ended or differential input by
setting Pin 64, DIFF CLK ENABLE, low or high respectively.
Inverse SINC Function
This filter precompensates input data to both DACs for the
SIN(x)/x roll-off function to allow wide bandwidth signals (such
as QPSK) to be output from the DACs without appreciable
amplitude variations that will cause increased EVM (error vector
magnitude). The inverse SINC function may be bypassed to
significantly reduce power consumption, especially at higher
clock speeds. When the Q DAC is configured as a “control”
DAC, the inverse SINC function does not apply.
PLL Range Bit
Inverse SINC is engaged by default and is bypassed by bringing
the “Bypass Inv SINC” bit high in control register 20 (hex) in
Table V.
REFCLK Multiplier
This is a programmable PLL-based reference clock multiplier
that allows the user to select an integer clock multiplying value
over the range of 4× to 20× by which the REFCLK input will be
multiplied. Use of this function allows users to input as little as
15 MHz to produce a 300 MHz internal system clock. Five bits
in control register 1E hex set the multiplier value as follows in
Table I.
The PLL Range Bit selects the frequency range of the REFCLK
Multiplier PLL. For operation from 200 MHz to 300 MHz
(internal system clock rate) the PLL Range Bit should be set to
Logic 1. For operation below 200 MHz, the PLL Range Bit
should be set to Logic 0. The PLL Range Bit adjusts the PLL
loop parameters for optimized phase noise performance within
each range.
Pin 61, PLL FILTER
This pin provides the connection for the external zero compensation network of the PLL loop filter. The zero compensation
network consists of a 1.3 kΩ resistor in series with a 0.01 µF
capacitor. The other side of the network should be connected to
as close as possible to Pin 60, AVDD. For optimum phase noise
performance the clock multiplier can be bypassed by setting the
“Bypass PLL” bit in control register address 1E.

Differential REFCLK Enable
Table II. Mode Selection Table
A high level on this pin enables the differential clock Inputs,
REFCLOCK and REFCLOCKB (Pins 69 and 68 respectively). The minimum differential signal amplitude required
is 800 mV p-p. The centerpoint or common-mode range of the
differential signal can range from 1.6 V to 1.9 V.
When Pin 64 (DIFF CLK ENABLE) is tied low, REFCLK
(Pin 69) is the only active clock input. This is referred to as
the single-ended mode. In this mode, Pin 68 (REFCLKB) should
be tied low or high, but not left floating.
Parallel/Serial Programming Mode
Setting Pin 70 high invokes parallel mode, whereas setting Pin
70 low will invoke the serial programming mode. Please refer to
the text describing the serial and parallel programming protocol contained in this data sheet for further information.
Two control bits located at address 20 hex in the Table V apply
only to the serial programming mode. LSB First when high,
dictates that serial data will be loaded starting with the LSB of
the word. When low (the default value), serial data is loaded
starting with the MSB of the word. SDO Active when high indicates that the SDO pin, Pin 18, is dedicated as an output to read
back data from the AD9854 registers. When SDO Active is low
(default value), this indicates that the SDIO pin, Pin 19, acts as
a bidirectional serial data input and output pin and Pin 18 has
no function in the serial mode.
DESCRIPTION OF AD9854 MODES OF OPERATION
There are five programmable modes of operation of the AD9854.
Selecting a mode requires that three bits in the Control Register
(parallel address 1F hex) be programmed as follows in Table II.

In each mode, engaging certain functions may or may not be
permitted. Shown in Table III is a listing of some important
functions and their availability for each mode.
Single-Tone (Mode 000)
This is the default mode when master reset is asserted or when
it is user-programmed into the control register. The Phase
Accumulator, responsible for generating an output frequency, is
presented with a 48-bit value from Frequency Tuning Word 1
registers whose default values are zero. Default values from the
remaining applicable registers will further define the single-tone
output signal qualities.
The default values after a master reset, define a safe, “no output”
value resulting in an output signal of 0 Hertz, 0 phase. Upon
power-up and reset the output from both I and Q DACs will be
a dc value equal to the midscale output current. This is the
default mode amplitude setting of zero. Refer to the digital multiplier section for further explanation of the output amplitude
control. It will be necessary to program all or some of the 28
program registers to realize a user-defined output signal.
Figure 35 graphically shows the transition from the default condition (0 Hz) to a user defined output frequency (F1).
As with all Analog Devices DDSs, the value of the frequency
tuning word is determined using the following equation:

AD9854
Where N is the phase accumulator resolution (48 bits in this
instance), frequency is expressed in Hertz, and the FTW, Frequency Tuning Word, is a decimal number. Once a decimal
number has been calculated, it must be rounded to an integer
and then converted to binary format—a series of 48 binaryweighted 1s or 0s. The fundamental sine wave DAC output
frequency range is from dc to 1/2 SYSCLK.
Furthermore, all of these qualities can be changed or modulated
via the 8-bit parallel programming port at a 100 MHz parallel-byte
rate, or at a 10 MHz serial rate. Incorporating this attribute will
permit FM, AM, PM, FSK, PSK, ASK operation in the singletone mode.
Unramped FSK (Mode 001)
Changes in frequency are phase continuous—that is, the new
frequency uses the last phase of the old frequency as the reference
point to compute the first new frequency phase.
The I and Q DACs of the AD9854 are always 90 degrees outof-phase. The 14-bit phase registers (discussed elsewhere in this
data sheet) do not independently adjust the phase of each DAC
output. Instead, both DAC’s are affected equally by a change in
phase offset.
The single-tone mode allows the user to control the following
signal qualities:
• Output Frequency to 48-Bit Accuracy
• Output Amplitude to 12-Bit Accuracy
– Fixed, User-Defined, Amplitude Control
– Variable, Programmable Amplitude Control
– Automatic, Programmable, Single-Pin-Controlled, “Shaped
On/Off Keying”
• Output Phase to 14-Bit Accuracy
When selected, the output frequency of the DDS is a function
of the values loaded into Frequency Tuning Word registers 1
and 2 and the logic level of Pin 29 (FSK/BPSK/HOLD). A logic
low on Pin 29 chooses F1 (frequency tuning word 1, parallel
address 4–9 hex) and a logic high chooses F2 (frequency tuning
word 2, parallel register address A–F hex). Changes in frequency
are phase-continuous and practically instantaneous. (Please
refer to pipeline delays in specification table.) Other than F2 and
Pin 29 becoming active, this mode is identical to single-tone.
The unramped FSK mode, Figure 36, is representative of
traditional FSK, RTTY (Radio Teletype) or TTY (Teletype)
transmission of digital data. Frequency transitions occur nearly
instantaneously from F1 to F2. This simple method works
extremely well and is the most reliable form of digital communication, but it is also wasteful of RF spectrum.
See the following Ramped FSK section for an alternative FSK
method that conserves bandwidth.

A method of FSK whereby changes from F1 to F2 are not
instantaneous but, instead, are accomplished in a frequency
sweep or “ramped” fashion. The “ramped” notation implies
that the sweep is linear. While linear sweeping or frequency
ramping is easily and automatically accomplished, it is only one
of many possibilities. Other frequency transition schemes may
be implemented by changing the ramp rate and ramp step size
“on-the-fly,” in piecewise fashion.
where N is the 20-bit ramp rate clock value programmed by the
user. Allowable range of N is from 1 to (220 –1). The output of
this counter clocks the 48-bit Frequency Accumulator shown
below in Figure 39. The Ramp Rate Clock determines the amount
of time spent at each intermediate frequency between F1 and F2.
The counter stops automatically when the destination frequency
is achieved. The “dwell time” spent at F1 and F2 is determined
by the duration that the FSK input, Pin 29, is held high or low
after the destination frequency has been reached.
Frequency ramping, whether linear or nonlinear, necessitates
that many intermediate frequencies between F1 and F2 will be
output in addition to the primary F1 and F2 frequencies. Figures
37 and 38 graphically depict the frequency versus time characteristics of a linear ramped FSK signal.
OUT
ADDER
FREQUENCY
ACCUMULATOR
The purpose of ramped FSK is to provide better bandwidth
containment than traditional FSK by replacing the instantaneous
frequency changes with more gradual, user-defined frequency
changes. The dwell time at F1 and F2 can be equal to or much
greater than the time spent at each intermediate frequency. The
user controls the dwell time at F1 and F2, the number of intermediate frequencies and time spent at each frequency. Unlike
unramped FSK, ramped FSK requires the lowest frequency to be
loaded into F1 registers and the highest frequency into F2 registers.
Several registers must be programmed to instruct the DDS
regarding the resolution of intermediate frequency steps (48
bits) and the time spent at each step (20 bits). Furthermore, the
CLR ACC1 bit in the control register should be toggled (low-highlow) prior to operation to assure that the frequency accumulator
is starting from an “all zeros” output condition. For piecewise,
nonlinear frequency transitions, it is necessary to reprogram the
registers while the frequency transition is in progress to affect the
desired response.
Parallel register addresses 1A–1C hex comprise the 20-bit “Ramp
Rate Clock” registers. This is a countdown counter that outputs
a single pulse whenever the count reaches zero. The counter
is activated any time a logic level change occurs on FSK input
Pin 29. This counter is run at the System Clock Rate, 300 MHz
maximum. The time period between each output pulse is given as

Parallel register addresses 10–15 hex comprise the 48-bit, straight
binary, “Delta Frequency Word” registers. This 48-bit word
is accumulated (added to the accumulator’s output) every time
it receives a clock pulse from the ramp rate counter. The output
of this accumulator is then added to or subtracted from the F1
or F2 frequency word, which is then fed to the input of the 48-bit
Phase Accumulator that forms the numerical phase steps for the
sine and cosine wave outputs. In this fashion, the output frequency
is ramped up and down in frequency, according to the logicstate of Pin 29. The rate at which this happens is a function of
the 20-bit ramp rate clock. Once the destination frequency is
achieved, the ramp rate clock is stopped, which halts the frequency
accumulation process.

Generally speaking, the Delta Frequency Word will be a much
smaller value as compared to that of the F1 or F2 tuning word.
For example, if F1 and F2 are 1 kHz apart at 13 MHz, the
Delta Frequency Word might be only 25 Hz.
Figure 41 shows that premature toggling causes the ramp to
immediately reverse itself and proceed at the same rate and resolution back to originating frequency.
Figure 42. Automatic Linear Ramping Using the Triangle Bit
The control register contains a Triangle bit at parallel register
address 1F hex. Setting this bit high in Mode 010 causes an
automatic ramp-up and ramp-down between F1 and F2 to occur
without having to toggle Pin 29 as shown in Figure 40. In fact,
the logic state of Pin 29 has no effect once the Triangle bit is set
high. This function uses the ramp-rate clock time period and
the delta-frequency-word step size to form a continuously sweeping
linear ramp from F1 to F2 and back to F1 with equal dwell times
at every frequency. Using this function, one can automatically
sweep from dc to the Nyquist limit or any other two frequencies
between dc and Nyquist.

In the Ramped FSK mode, with the triangle bit set high, an
automatic frequency sweep will begin at either F1 or F2,
according to the logic level on Pin 29 (FSK input pin) when the
triangle bit’s rising edge occurs as shown in Figure 42. If the
FSK data bit had been high instead of low, F2 would have been
chosen instead of F1 as the start frequency.
accumulator (ACC2). When this bit is set high, the output of the
phase accumulator will result in 0 Hz output from the DDS. As
long as this bit is set high, the frequency and phase accumulators
will be cleared, resulting in 0 Hz output. To return to previous
DDS operation, CLR ACC2 must be set to logic low.
Additional flexibility in the ramped FSK mode is provided in
the ability to respond to changes in the 48-bit delta frequency
word and/or the 20-bit ramp-rate counter on-the-fly during the
ramping from F1 to F2 or vice versa. To create these nonlinear
frequency changes it is necessary to combine several linear ramps
in a piecewise fashion whose slopes are different. This is done
by programming and executing a linear ramp at some rate or
“slope” and then altering the slope (by changing the ramp rate
clock or delta frequency word or both). Changes in slope are made
as often as needed to form the desired nonlinear frequency sweep
response before the destination frequency has been reached. These
piecewise changes can be precisely timed using the 32-bit Internal Update Clock (see detailed description elsewhere in this
data sheet).
This mode is also known as pulsed FM. Most chirp systems use
a linear FM sweep pattern although any pattern may be used.
This is a type of spread spectrum modulation that can realize
“processing gain.” In radar applications, use of chirp or pulsed
FM allows operators to significantly reduce the output power
needed to achieve the same result as a single-frequency radar
system would produce. Figure 43 represents a very low-resolution
nonlinear chirp meant to demonstrate the different “slopes” that
are created by varying the time steps (ramp rate) and frequency
steps (delta frequency word).
Nonlinear ramped FSK will have the appearance of a chirp
function that is graphically illustrated in Figure 43. The major
difference between a ramped FSK function and a chirp function
is that FSK is limited to operation between F1 and F2. Chirp
operation has no F2 limit frequency.
Chirp (Mode 011)
The AD9854 permits precise, internally generated linear or
externally programmed nonlinear pulsed or continuous FM over
a user-defined frequency range, duration, frequency resolution and
sweep direction(s). A block diagram of the FM chirp components
is shown in Figure 44.

Two additional control bits are available in the ramped FSK mode
that allow even more options. CLR ACC1, register address 1F hex,
will, if set high, clear the 48-bit frequency accumulator (ACC1)
output with a retriggerable one-shot pulse of one system clock
duration. If the CLR ACC1 bit is left high, a one-shot pulse will
be delivered on the rising edge of every Update Clock. The effect
is to interrupt the current ramp, reset the frequency back to the
start point, F1 or F2, and then continue to ramp up (or down)
at the previous rate. This will occur even when a static F1 or F2
destination frequency has been achieved. (See Figure 43.)

Basic FM Chirp Programming Steps
Two control bits are available in the FM Chirp mode that will
allow practically instantaneous return to the beginning frequency,
FTW1, or to 0 Hz. First, CLR ACC1 bit, register address 1F
hex, will, if set high, clear the 48-bit frequency accumulator (ACC1)
output with a retriggerable one-shot pulse of one system clock
duration. The 48-bit Delta Frequency Word input to the accumulator is unaffected by CLR ACC1 bit. If the CLR ACC1 bit
is left high, a one-shot pulse will be delivered to the Frequency
Accumulator (ACC1) on every rising edge of the I/O Update
Clock. The effect is to interrupt the current chirp, reset the
frequency back to FTW1, and continue the chirp at the previously
programmed rate and direction. Clearing the Frequency Accumulator in the chirp mode is illustrated in Figure 45. Not shown
in the diagram is the I/O update signal, which is either usersupplied or internally generated. A discussion of I/O Update is
presented elsewhere in this data sheet.
1. Program a start frequency into Frequency Tuning Word 1
(parallel register addresses 4–9 hex) hereafter called FTW1.
2. Program the frequency step resolution into the 48-bit, twos
complement, Delta Frequency Word (parallel register addresses
10–15 hex).
3. Program the rate of change (time at each frequency) into the
20-bit Ramp Rate Clock (parallel register addresses 1A–C).
4. When programming is complete, an I/O update pulse at Pin
20 will engage the program commands.
The necessity for a twos complement Delta Frequency Word is
to define the direction in which the FM chirp will move. If the
48-bit delta frequency word is negative (MSB is high) then the
incremental frequency changes will be in a negative direction
from FTW1. If the 48-bit word is positive (MSB is low) then
the incremental frequency changes will be in a positive direction.
FREQUENCY
It is important to note that the FTW1 is only a starting point for
FM chirp. There is no built-in restraint requiring a return to
FTW1. Once the FM chirp has left FTW1 it is free to move
(under program control) within the Nyquist bandwidth (dc to
1/2 system clock). Instant return to FTW1 is easily achieved,
though, and this option is explained in the next few paragraphs.
Next, CLR ACC2 control bit (register address 1F hex) is available to
clear both the frequency accumulator (ACC1) and the phase
accumulator (ACC2). When this bit is set high, the output of the
phase accumulator will result in 0 Hz output from the DDS. As
long as this bit is set high, the frequency and phase accumulators
will be cleared, resulting in 0 Hz output. To return to previous
DDS operation, CLR ACC2 must be set to logic low. This bit is
useful in generating pulsed FM.

Figure 46 graphically illustrates the effect of CLR ACC2 bit upon
the DDS output frequency. Note that reprogramming the registers
while the CLR ACC2 bit is high allows a new FTW1 frequency
and slope to be loaded.
Another function that is available only in the chirp mode is the
HOLD pin, Pin 29. This function will stop the clocking signal to
the ramp rate counter that will, in turn, halt any further clocking
pulses to the frequency accumulator, ACC1. The effect is to
halt the chirp and hold the output frequency in a static condition
at the frequency existing just before HOLD was pulled high.
When the HOLD pin is returned low, the clocks are resumed
and chirp continues. During a hold condition, user may change
the programming registers; however, the ramp rate counter must
resume operation at its previous rate until a count of zero is
obtained before a new ramp rate count can be loaded. Figure 47
illustrates the effect of the hold function on the DDS output
frequency.
REV. 0
Users may utilize the 32-bit automatic I/O Update counter when
constructing complex chirp or ramped FSK sequences. Since
this internal counter is synchronized with the AD9854 System
Clock, it allows precisely timed program changes to be invoked. In
this manner, user is only required to reprogram the desired
registers before the automatic I/O Update pulse is generated.
A complete discussion of this function is presented elsewhere
in this data sheet.
In the chirp mode, the destination frequency is not directly
specified. If the user fails to control the chirp, the DDS will control
itself by naturally confining its output between dc and Nyquist;
however, unless terminated by the user, the chirp will continue
until power is removed.
It is the user’s choice as to what occurs when the chirp destination
frequency is reached. Here are a few of the choices:
1. Stop and hold at the destination frequency using the HOLD
pin, or by loading all zeros into the Delta Frequency Word
registers of the frequency accumulator (ACC1).
–23–
AD9854
2. Stop using the hold pin function, then ramp-down the output
amplitude using the digital multiplier stages and the Shaped
Keying pin, Pin 30, or via program register control (addresses
21–24 hex).
If phase shift keying is not the objective, but rather a broader
range of phase offsets is needed, the user should select the Single
Tone mode and program Phase Adjust register 1 using the serial or
high-speed parallel programming bus.
3. Stop and abruptly terminate the transmission using the CLR
ACC2 bit.
I/O Port Buffers—100 MHz, 8-bit parallel or 10 MHz serial
loading, SPI-compatible. The programming mode is selected
externally via the serial/parallel (S/P Select) pin. I/O Buffers can
be written to, or read from, according to the signals supplied to
the Read (RDB) and Write pins (WRB) and the 6-bit address
(A0–A5) in the parallel mode or to CSB, SCLK and SDIO pins
in the Serial mode.
4. Continue chirp by reversing direction and returning to the
previous, or another, destination frequency in a linear or userdirected manner. If this involves going down in frequency, a
negative 48-bit Delta Frequency Word (the MSB is set to
“1”) must be loaded into registers 10–15 hex. Any decreasing
frequency step of the Delta Frequency Word requires the MSB
to be set to logic high.
5. Continue chirp by immediately returning to the F1 beginning
frequency in a sawtooth fashion and repeat the previous chirp
process again. This is where CLR ACC1 control bit is used.
An automatic, repeating chirp can be setup using the 32-bit
Update Clock to issue CLR ACC1 commands at precise time
intervals. Adjusting the timing intervals or changing the Delta
Frequency Word will change the chirp range. It is incumbent
upon the user to balance the chirp duration and frequency
resolution to achieve the proper frequency range.
BPSK (Mode 100)
Binary, biphase or bipolar phase shift keying is a means to rapidly
select between two preprogramming 14-bit output phase offsets
that will identically affect both the I and Q outputs of the AD9854.
The logic-state of Pin 29, BPSK pin, controls the selection of
Phase Adjust register number 1 or 2. When low, Pin 29 selects
Phase Adjust register 1; when high, Phase Adjust register 2 is
selected. Figure 48 illustrates phase changes made to four cycles
of an output carrier.
Basic BPSK programming steps:
1. Program a carrier frequency into Frequency Tuning Word 1.
2. Program appropriate 14-bit phase words in Phase Adjust
registers 1 and 2.
3. Attach BPSK data source to Pin 29.
4. Activate I/O Update pulse when ready.
Data in the I/O Port Buffers is stored until overwritten by changes
in program instructions supplied by the user or until power is
removed. An I/O Update clocks-in the data from the I/O Buffers
to the DDS Programming Registers where it is executed.
AM—amplitude modulation of the I and Q DACs is possible
using the I/O port to control 12-bit digital multiplier stages that
precede the DACs. The multipliers can also be used to set the
DAC outputs between zero- and full-scale for static amplitude
adjustment. Both I and Q DAC amplitudes are individually
programmable. See the “Shaped On/Off Keying” description
for more information. Shaped keying function does not apply to
the Q DAC when configured as a Control DAC. In this instance,
the user is in control of the Control DAC output level via the
12-bit QDAC register at address 26 and 27 hex of the programming registers
High-Speed Comparator—optimized for high speed, >300 MHz
toggle rate, low jitter, sensitive input, built-in hysteresis and
an output level of 1 V p-p minimum into 50 Ω or CMOS logic
levels into high impedance loads. The comparator can be separately powered down to conserve power. This comparator is used
in “clock generator” applications to square up a bandpass or
low-pass filtered sine wave.
Eight-Bit Ramp Rate Clock—when Shaped On/Off Keying is
engaged, this down-counter takes the system clock (300 MHz
maximum), and divides it by an 8-bit binary value (programmed
by the user) to produce a user-defined clock. The clock outputs
one pulse every time the counter counts down to zero. This clock is

Twenty-Bit Ramp Rate Clock—when selected, this downcounter takes the system clock (300 MHz maximum) and divides

Forty-Eight-Bit Delta Frequency Register—is used only in
the Chirp and ramped-FSK modes. This register is loaded with a
48-bit word that represents the frequency increment value of
Frequency Accumulator (ACCU 1) whose output will be added
to a frequency that is set in either F1 or F2 frequency registers.
This register is periodically incremented at a rate set by the
20-bit ramp rate clock (150 MHz maximum).
Forty-Eight-Bit Delta Frequency Register—is programmed
with a 48-bit Frequency Tuning Word that is input to the 48-bit
Phase Accumulator (ACCU 2) and determines the output frequency of the DDS in the single-tone mode. When ramped-FSK
or Chirp are selected, this register is sent to a digital adder where
it is summed with the output of ACCU 1 before being input to
ACCU 2. Therefore, the signal sent to ACCU 2 may be either
static or changing at a rate of up to 150 million 48-bit frequency
tuning words per second.

Power-Down—Several individual stages, when not needed,
can be powered down to reduce power consumption via the
programming registers while still maintaining functionality of
desired stages. These stages are identified in the Register Layout
table, address 1D hex. Power-down is achieved by setting the
specified bits to logic high. A logic low indicates that the stages
are powered up.
Furthermore, and perhaps most significantly, two intensely digital
stages, the Inverse Sinc filters and the Digital Multiplier stages,
can be bypassed to achieve significant power reduction through
programming of the control registers in address 20 hex. Again,
logic high will cause the stage to be bypassed. Of particular
importance is the Inverse Sinc filter as this stage consumes a
significant amount of power.
A full power-down occurs when all four PD Bits in control
register 1D hex are set to logic high. This reduces power
consumption to approximately 10 mW (3 mA).
Master RESET—logic high active, must be held high for a
minimum of 10 system clock cycles. This causes the communications bus to be initialized and loads default values listed in the
Table V.

AD9854
Interfacing and Programming the AD9854
1. Internally, controlled at a rate programmable by the user or,
The AD9854 Register Layout, shown in Table V, contains the
information that programs the chip for the desired functionality.
While many applications will require very little programming to
configure the AD9854, some will make use of all twelve accessible register banks. The AD9854 supports an 8-bit byte parallel
I/O operation or an SPI-compatible serial I/O operation. All
accessible registers can be written and read back in either
I/O operating mode.
2. Externally, controlled by the user. I/O operations can occur in
the absence of REFCLK but the data cannot be moved from
the buffer memory to the register bank without REFCLK.
See the Update Clock Operation section of this document
for details.
An external pin, S/P SELECT, is used to configure the I/O mode.
Systems that use the parallel I/O mode must connect the S/P
SELECT pin to VDD. Systems that operate in the serial I/O mode
must tie the S/P SELECT pin to GND.
Regardless of mode, the I/O port data is written to a buffer
memory that does NOT affect operation of the part until the
contents of the buffer memory are transferred to the register
banks. This transfer of information occurs synchronously to the
system clock and occurs in one of two ways:
Parallel I/O Operation
With the S/P SELECT pin tied high, the parallel I/O mode is
active. The I/O port is compatible with industry standard DSPs
and microcontrollers. Six address bits, eight bidirectional data
bits and separate write/read control inputs make up the I/O
port pins.
Parallel I/O operation allows write access to each byte of any
register in a single I/O operation at 100 MHz. Read back capability
for each register is included to ease designing with the AD9854.
Reads are not guaranteed at 100 MHz as they are intended for
software debug only.
Parallel I/O operation timing diagrams are shown in the Figures
49 and 50.

AD9854
Serial Port I/O Operation
Table VII. Register Address vs. Data Bytes Transferred
With the S/P SELECT pin tied low, the serial I/O mode is active.
The AD9854 serial port is a flexible, synchronous, serial communications port allowing easy interface to many industry-standard
microcontrollers and microprocessors. The serial I/O is compatible with most synchronous transfer formats, including both the
Motorola 6905/11 SPI and Intel 8051 SSR protocols. The interface allows read/write access to all twelve registers that configure
the AD9854 and can be configured as a single pin I/O (SDIO)
or two unidirectional pins for in/out (SDIO/SDO). Data transfers
are supported in most significant bit (MSB) first format or least
significant bit (LSB) first format at up to 10 MHz.
When configured for serial I/O operation, most pins from the
AD9854 parallel port are inactive; some are used for the serial
I/O. Table VI describes pin requirements for serial I/O.

At the completion of any communication cycle, the AD9854
serial port controller expects the next eight rising SCLK edges
to be the instruction byte of the next communication cycle. In
addition, an active high input on the IO RESET pin immediately
terminates the current communication cycle. After IO RESET
returns low, the AD9854 serial port controller requires the next
eight rising SCLK edges to be the instruction byte of the next
communication cycle.
All data input to the AD9854 is registered on the rising edge of
SCLK. All data is driven out of the AD9854 on the falling edge
of SCLK.
Figures 51 and 52 are useful in understanding the general operation of the AD9854 Serial Port.
CS
GENERAL OPERATION OF THE SERIAL INTERFACE
There are two phases to a communication cycle with the AD9854.
Phase 1 is the instruction cycle, which is the writing of an
instruction byte into the AD9854, coincident with the first eight
SCLK rising edges. The instruction byte provides the AD9854
serial port controller with information regarding the data transfer
cycle, which is Phase 2 of the communication cycle. The Phase
1 instruction byte defines whether the upcoming data transfer is
read or write, and the register address in which to transfer data
to/from.
The first eight SCLK rising edges of each communication cycle
are used to write the instruction byte into the AD9854. The
remaining SCLK edges are for Phase 2 of the communication
cycle. Phase 2 is the actual data transfer between the AD9854
and the system controller. The number of data bytes transferred
in Phase 2 of the communication cycle is a function of the register address. The AD9854 internal serial I/O controller expects
every byte of the register being accessed to be transferred. Table
VII describes how many bytes must be transferred.

SERIAL INTERFACE PORT PIN DESCRIPTION
SCLK
Serial Clock (Pin 21). The serial clock pin is used to synchronize
data to and from the AD9854 and to run the internal state
machines. SCLK maximum frequency is 10 MHz.
The system must maintain synchronization with the AD9854 or
the internal control logic will not be able to recognize further
instructions. For example, if the system sends the instruction to
write a 2-byte register, then pulses the SCLK pin for a 3-byte
register (24 additional SCLK rising edges), communication
synchronization is lost. In this case, the first 16 SCLK rising edges
after the instruction cycle will properly write the first two data
bytes into the AD9854, but the next eight rising SCLK edges
are interpreted as the next instruction byte, NOT the final byte
of the previous communication cycle.
In the case where synchronization is lost between the system and
the AD9854, the IO RESET pin provides a means to reestablish
synchronization without reinitializing the entire chip. Asserting
the IO RESET pin (active high) resets the AD9854 serial port state
machine, terminating the current IO operation and putting the
device into a state in which the next eight SCLK rising edges
are understood to be an instruction byte. The SYNC IO pin
must be deasserted (low) before the next instruction byte write can
begin. Any information that had been written to the AD9854
registers during a valid communication cycle prior to loss of
synchronization will remain intact.

Chip Select (Pin 22). Active low input that allows more than
one device on the same serial communications lines. The SDO

MSB/LSB TRANSFERS
The AD9854 serial port can support both most significant bit
(MSB) first or least significant bit (LSB) first data formats. This
functionality is controlled by Bit 1 of serial register bank 20h.
When this bit is set active high, the AD9854 serial port is in LSB
first format. This bit defaults low, to the MSB first format. The
instruction byte must be written in the format indicated by Bit 1
of serial register bank 20h. That is, if the AD9854 is in LSB first
mode, the instruction byte must be written from least significant
bit to most significant bit.
Update Clock Operation
Programming the AD9854 is asynchronous to the system clock
with all data being stored in a buffer memory that does not
immediately affect the part operation. The buffer memory is
transferred to the register bank synchronous to system clock.
The register bank information affects part operation.
This transfer of data can occur automatically, with frequency of
updates programmable by the user, or can occur completely under
user control.
Complete user control, referred to as external update mode,
allows the user to drive the I/O UD signal from their ASIC or
DSP. The AD9854 I/O UD pin is configured as an input in
external update mode. A rising edge on I/O UD indicates to
the AD9854 that the contents of the buffer memory is to be
transferred to the register bank. The design uses an edge detector
to signal the AD9854 to transfer data which allows a very small
minimum high pulse width requirement (two system clock periods). Its important to note that if the user keeps I/O UD high,
the AD9854 will NOT continuously update the register bank.
Internal update mode, in which the AD9854 transfers data from
the buffer memory to the register bank automatically, configures
the AD9854 I/O UD pin as an output. The AD9854 generates a
high pulse on I/O UD pin to signal the user that the buffer memory
has just been transferred to the register bank. The minimum
high pulsewidth is designed to be eight system clock cycles (min).
The I/O UD signal can be used as an interrupt within the system.
Its important to note that as an output I/O UD pin will not have
anything approaching a 50/50 duty cycle for slower update rates.
Programming the Update Clock register for values less than five
will cause the I/O UD pin to remain high. The update clock functionality still works, its just that the user cannot use the signal as
an indication that data is transferring. This is an affect of the
minimum high pulse time when I/O UD is an output.
For internal update clock operation, the rate which the updates
occur is programmed into the update clock register. The update
clock register is 32 bits and the value written into the register
corresponds to HALF the number of clock cycles between updates.
That is, if a value of 00_00_00_0A (hex), is written into the update
clock register the rising edge of the I/O UD pin will occur every
20 cycles (0A hex equals 10 decimal).
CONTROL REGISTER
The Control Register is located in the shaded portion of the
Table V at address 1D through 20 hex. It is composed of 32
bits. Bit 31 is located at the top left position and Bit 0 is located
in the lower right position of the shaded table portion. The register has been subdivided below to make it easier to locate the
text associated with specific control categories.

Power-Down Functions
Four bits are available to power down the AD9854. Each bit is
active high, that is, they default low and a Logic 1 causes the
power-down function to be working, The four bits all reside in
the same control byte such that one IO write cycle can complete
a full power-down by writing all four bits true simultaneously.
The four bits are located in Control Register [28, 26:24] and
are described below. The default state for these bits is Logic 0,
inactive.
CR[31:29] are open.
CR[28] is the comparator power-down bit. When set (Logic 1),
this signal indicates to the comparator that a power-down mode
is active. This bit is an output of the digital section and is an
input to the analog section.
CR[27] must always be written to logic zero. Writing this bit to
Logic 1 causes the AD9854 to stop working until a master
reset is applied.
CR[26] is the Q DAC power-down bit. When set (Logic 1), this
signal indicates to the Q DAC that a power-down mode is active.
CR[25] is the full DAC power-down bit. When set (Logic 1),
this signal indicates to both the I and Q DACs as well as the reference that a power-down mode is active.
CR[24] is the digital power-down bit. When set (Logic 1), this
signal indicates to the digital section that a power-down mode is
active. Within the digital section, the clocks will be forced to dc,
effectively powering down the digital section. The REFCLK
input will still be seen by the PLL and the PLL will continue to
output the higher frequency.
REFCLK Multiplier PLL Functions
frequency sweep pattern with very little (or no) user input
required. This bit is intended for chirp mode only, but there is
no logic to suppress its functionality in other modes.
CR[14] is the clear accumulator bit. This bit, active high, holds
both the accumulator 1 and accumulator 2 values at zero for as
long as the bit is active. This allows the DDS phase to be initialized via the I/O port.
CR[13] is the triangle bit. When this bit is set, the AD9854 will
automatically perform a continuous frequency sweep from F1 to
F2 frequencies and back. The effect is a triangular frequency
sweep. When this bit is set, the operating mode must be set to
ramped FSK.
CR[12] is the source Q DAC bit on the AD9854 only. When
set, the Q path DAC accepts data from the QDAC Register.
For the AD9854, this bit does not require a Logic 1 as the only
data available to the Q path DAC is from the QDAC Register.
CR[11:9] are the three bits that describe the five operating modes
of the AD9854:
0h = Single-Tone Mode
1h = FSK Mode
2h = Ramped FSK mode
3h = Chirp Mode
4h = PSK Mode
CR[8] is the internal update active bit. When this bit is set to
Logic 1, the I/O UD pin is an output and the AD9854 generates
the I/O UD signal. When Logic 0, external I/O UD functionality
is performed, the I/O UD pin is configured as an input.
CR[7] is reserved. Write to zero.
CR[23] is reserved. Write to zero.
CR[6] is the bypass of the inverse sinc filter bit. When set, the
data from the DDS block goes directly to the output shapedkeying logic and the clock to the inverse sinc filter is stopped.
Default is clear, filter enabled.
CR[22] is the PLL range bit. The PLL range bit controls the
VCO gain. The power-up state of the PLL range bit is Logic 1,
higher gain for frequencies above 200 MHz.
CR[5] is the shaped keying enable bit. When set the output
ramping function is enabled and is performed in accordance with
the CR[4] bit requirements.
CR[21] is the bypass PLL bit, active high. When active, the PLL
is powered down and the REFCLK input is used to drive the
system clock signal. The power-up state of the bypass PLL bit is
Logic 1, PLL bypassed.
CR[4] is the internal/external output shaped-keying control
bit. When set Logic 1, the shaped-keying factor will be internally generated and applied to both the I and Q paths. When
clear, the output shaped-keying function is externally controlled
by the user and the shaped-keying factor is the I and Q output
shaped-keying factor register values. Defaults low external shapedkeying factors used. The two registers that are the shaped-keying
factors also default low such that the output is off at power-up
and until the device is programmed by the user.
Seven control register bits, located in the Control Register
[22:16] positions, relate to the PLL.
CR[20:16] bits are the PLL multiplier factor. These bits are the
REFCLK multiplication factor unless the bypass PLL bit is set.
The PLL multiplier valid range is from 4 to 20, inclusive.
Other Operational Functions
CR[15] is the clear accumulator 1 bit. This bit has a one-shot
type function. When written active, Logic 1, a clear accumulator
1 signal is sent to the DDS logic, resetting the accumulator value to
zero. The bit is then automatically reset, but the buffer memory
is not reset. This bit allows the user to easily create a sawtooth
REV. 0
CR[3:2] are reserved. Write to zero.
CR[1] is the serial port MSB/LSB first bit. Defaults low, MSB
first.
CR[0] is the serial port SDO active bit. Defaults low, inactive.

AD9854
JUNCTION TEMPERATURE CONSIDERATIONS
POWER DISSIPATION AND THERMAL
CONSIDERATIONS
The AD9854 is a multifunctional, very high-speed device that
targets a wide variety of synthesizer and agile clock applications.
The set of numerous innovative features contained in the device
each consume incremental power, the sum of which, if enabled
in combination, may exceed the safe thermal operating conditions of the device. Careful analysis and consideration of power
dissipation and thermal management is a critical element in the
successful application of the AD9854 device.
The AD9854 device is specified to operate within the industrial
temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. This specification is
conditional, however, such that the absolute maximum junction
temperature of 150°C is not exceeded. At high operating temperatures, extreme care must be taken in the operation of the device
to avoid exceeding the junction temperature which results in a
potentially damaging thermal condition.
Many variables contribute to the operating junction temperature within the device, including:
1. Package Style
2. Selected Mode of Operation
3. Internal System Clock Speed
4. Supply Voltage
5. Ambient Temperature.
The power dissipation (PDISS) of the AD9854 device in a given
application is determined by many operating conditions. Some
of the conditions have a direct relationship with PDISS, such as
supply voltage and clock speed, but others are less deterministic.
The total power dissipation within the device, and its effect
on the junction temperature, must be considered when using the
device. The junction temperature of the device is given by:
Junction Temperature = (Thermal Impedance ×
Power Consumption) + Ambient Temperature
Given that the junction temperature should never exceed 150°C
for the AD9854, and that the ambient temperature can be 85°C,
the maximum power consumption for the AD9854AST is 1.7 W
and the AD9854ASQ (thermally-enhanced package) is 4.1 W.
Factors affecting the power dissipation are:
Supply Voltage—this obviously affects power dissipation and
junction temperature since PDISS equals V × I. Users should design
for 3.3 V nominal; however, the device is guaranteed to meet
specifications, over the full temperature range and over the supply voltage range of 3.135 V to 3.465 V.
Clock Speed—this directly and linearly influences the total
power dissipation of the device, and, therefore, junction temperature. As a rule, the user should always select the lowest
internal clock speed possible to support a given application, to
minimize power dissipation. Normally the usable frequency output bandwidth from a DDS is limited to 40% of the clock rate
to keep reasonable requirements on the output low-pass filter.
For the typical DDS application, the system clock frequency
should be 2.5 times the highest desired output frequency.
The combination of these variables determines the junction
temperature within the AD9854 device for a given set of operating
conditions.
The AD9854 device is available in two package styles: a thermallyenhanced surface-mount package with an exposed heat sink,
and a nonthermally-enhanced surface-mount package. The
thermal impedance of these packages is 16°C/W and 38°C/W
respectively, measured under still-air conditions.
THERMAL IMPEDANCE
The thermal impedance of a package can be thought of as a
thermal resistor that exists between the semiconductor surface
and the ambient air. The thermal impedance of a package is
determined by package material and its physical dimensions. The
dissipation of the heat from the package is directly dependent upon
the ambient air conditions and the physical connection made
between the IC package and the PCB. Adequate dissipation of
power from the AD9854 relies upon all power and ground pins
of the device being soldered directly to a copper plane on a PCB.
In addition, the thermally-enhanced package of the AD9854ASQ
contains a heat sink on the bottom of the package that must be
soldered to a ground pad on the PCB surface. This pad must be
connected to a large copper plane which, for convenience, may be
ground plane. Sockets for either package style of the AD9854
device are not recommended.
Mode of Operation—the selected mode of operation for the
AD9854 has a great influence on total power consumption. The
AD9854 offers many features and modes, each of which imposes
an additional power requirement. The collection of features
contained in the AD9854 target a wide variety of applications
and the device was designed under the assumption that only a
few would be enabled for any given application. In fact, the user
must understand that enabling multiple features at higher clock
speeds may cause the junction temperature of the die to be
exceeded. This can severely limit the long-term reliability of the
device. Figure 57 provides a summary of the power requirements
associated with the individual features of the AD9854. This
table should be used as a guide in determining the optimum
application of the AD9854 for reliable operation.
As can be seen in the Figure 57, the Inverse Sinc filter function
requires a significant amount of power, and much forethought
and scrutiny should be given to its use. As an alternate approach
to maintaining flatness across the output bandwidth, the digital
Multiplier function may be used to adjust the output signal
level, at a dramatic savings in power consumption. Careful planning and management in the use of the feature set will minimize
power dissipation and avoid exceeding junction temperature
requirements within the IC.

EVALUATION OF OPERATING CONDITIONS
1400
The first step in applying the AD9854 is to select the internal
clock frequency. Clock frequency selections above 200 MHz
will require the thermally-enhanced package (AD9854ASQ);
clock frequency selections of 200 MHz and below may allow
the user to use the standard plastic surface-mount package, but
more information will be needed to make that determination.

Figure 57a shows the supply current consumed by the AD9854
over a range of frequencies for two possible configurations: all
circuits enabled means the output scaling multipliers, the inverse
sinc filter, the Q DAC, and the on-board comparator are all enabled. Basic configuration means the output scaling multipliers,
the inverse sinc filter, the Q DAC, and the on-board comparator
are all disabled.
500
The third step is to divide this maximum rise number by the
thermal impedance, to arrive at the maximum power dissipation
allowed for the application. For the example so far, 65°C divided
by both versions of the AD9854 package’s thermal impedances
of 38°C/W and 16°C/W, yields a total power dissipation limit
of 1.7 W and 4.1 W (respectively). This means that for a 3.3 V
nominal power supply voltage, the current consumed by the device
under full operating conditions must not exceed 515 mA in the
standard plastic package and 1242 mA in the thermally-enhanced
package. The total set of enabled functions and operating conditions of the AD9854 application must support these current
consumption limits.

Figures 57a and Figure 57b may be used to determine the
suitability of a given AD9854 application vs. power dissipation
requirements. These graphs assume that the AD9854 device will
be soldered to a multilayer PCB per the recommended best
manufacturing practices and procedures for the given package
type. This ensures that the specified thermal impedance specifications will be achieved.

SUPPLY CURRENT – mA
The second step is to determine the maximum required operating
temperature for the AD9854 in the given application. Subtract
this value from 150°C, which is the maximum junction temperature allowed for the AD9854. For the extended industrial
temperature range of 85°C, the result will be 65°C. This is the
maximum rise in temperature that the junction may experience
due to power dissipation.

THERMALLY ENHANCED PACKAGE MOUNTING
GUIDELINES
The following are general recommendations for mounting the
thermally enhanced exposed heat sink package (AD9854ASQ)
to printed circuit boards. The exceptional thermal characteristics of
this package depend entirely upon proper mechanical attachment.
Figure 58 depicts the package from the bottom and shows the
dimensions of the exposed heat sink. A solid conduit of solder
needs to be established between this pad and the surface of
the PCB.

The thermal land itself must be able to distribute heat to an even
larger copper plane such as an internal ground plane. Vias must be
uniformly provided over the entire thermal pad to connect to this
internal plane. A proposed via pattern is shown in Figure 60. Via
holes should be small (12 mils, 0.3 mm) such that they can be
plated and plugged. These will provide the mechanical conduit
for heat transfer.
Figure 60.
Figure 58.
Figure 59 depicts a general PCB land pattern for such an exposed
heat sink device. Note that this pattern is for a 64-lead device not
an 80-lead, but the relative shapes and dimensions still apply.
In this land pattern, a solid copper plane exists inside of the
individual lands for device leads. Note also that the solder mask
opening is conservatively dimensioned to avoid any assembly
problems.
Finally, a proposed stencil design is depicted for screen solder
placement. Note that if vias are not plugged, wicking will occur
which will displace solder away from the exposed heat sink and
the necessary mechanical bond will not be established.

AD9854
EVALUATION BOARD
An evaluation board is available that supports the AD9854 DDS
devices. This evaluation board consists of a PCB, software, and
documentation to facilitate bench analysis of the performance of
the AD9854 device. It is recommended that users of the AD9854
familiarize themselves with the operation and performance
capabilities of the device with the evaluation board. The evaluation
board should also be used as a PCB reference design to ensure
optimum dynamic performance from the device.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To assist in proper placement of the pin-header shorting-jumpers,
the instructions will refer to direction (left, right, top, bottom)
as well as header pins to be shorted. Pin #1 for each three pinheader has been marked on the PCB corresponding with the
schematic diagram. When following these instructions, position
the PCB so that the text can be read from left to right. The
board is shipped with the pin-headers configuring the board
as follows:
1. REFCLK for the AD9854 is configured as differential. The
differential clock signals are provided by the 100LVEL16
differential receiver.
2. Input clock for the 100LVEL16 is single-ended via J5. This
signal may be 3.3 V CMOS or a 2 V p-p sine wave capable of
driving 50 Ω (R8).
3. Both DAC outputs from the AD9854 are routed through
the two 120 MHz elliptical LP filters and their outputs connected to J3 (Q) and J4 (I).
4. The board is set up for software control via the printer port
connector.
5. Configured for AD9854 operation.
Load the software from the CD onto the host PC’s hard disk.
Only Windows 9X and NT operating system are supported.
Connect a printer cable from the PC to the AD9854 Evaluation
Board printer port connector labeled “J11.”
Attach power wires to connector labeled “TB1” using the screwdown terminals. This is a plastic connector that press-fits over a
4-pin header soldered to the board. Table IX below shows connections to each pin. DUT = “device under test.”

Attach REFCLK
There are three possibilities to choose from:
1. On-Board (But Optional) Crystal Clock Oscillator, Y1.
Insert an appropriate 3.3 V CMOS clock oscillator. See that
the shorting jumper at W5 is located on Pins 1 and 2 (the left
two pins). This routes the single-ended oscillator output to a
very high speed “Differential Receiver” (the MC100LVEL16),
where the signal is transformed to a differential PECL output.
To route the differential output signals to AD9854, two more
switches must be configured. W9 must have a shorting jumper
on Pins 2 and 3 (the right two pins). To engage the differential clocking mode of the AD9854 W3, Pins 2 and 3 (the right
two pins) must be connected with a shorting jumper.
REV. 0
2. External Differential Clock Input, J5.
This is actually just another single-ended input that will be
routed to the MC100LVEL16 for conversion to differential
PECL output. This is accomplished by attaching a 2 V p-p
clock or sine wave source to J5. Note that this is a 50 Ω
impedance point set by R8. The input signal will be ac-coupled
and then biased to the center switching threshold of the
MC100LVEL16. Position the shorting jumper of W5 to Pins
2 and 3 (the right two pins) to route the signal at J5 to the
differential receiver IC. To route the differential output signals
to AD9854, two more switches must be configured. W9 must
have a shorting jumper on Pins 2 and 3 (the right two pins).
To engage the differential clocking mode of the AD9854
W3, Pins 2 and 3 (the right two pins) must be connected
with a shorting jumper.
3. External Single-Ended Clock Input, J7.
This mode bypasses the MC100LVEL16 and directly drives
the AD9854 with your reference clock. Attach a 50 Ω, 2 V p-p
sine source that is dc offset to 1.65 V, or a 50 Ω CMOS-level
clock source to J7. Remove the shorting jumper from W5
altogether to make certain that the device (U3) Is not Toggling
or Self-Oscillating. Set the shorting jumper at W9 on Pins
1 and 2 (the left two pins) to route the REFCLK signal from
J7 to Pin 69 of the AD9854. Finally, set the shorting jumper at
W3 to Pins 1 and 2 (the left two pins) to place the AD9854 in
the single-ended clock mode.
Regardless of the origination, the signals arriving at the AD9854
are called the Reference Clock. If you choose to engage the
on-chip REFCLK Multiplier, this signal is the reference clock
for the REFCLK Multiplier and the REFCLK Multiplier output
becomes the SYSTEM CLOCK. If you choose to bypass the
REFCLK Multiplier, the reference clock that you have supplied
is directly operating the AD9854 and is, therefore, the system
clock.
Three-state control or switch headers W11, W12, W14, and
W15 must be shorted to allow the provided software to control
the AD9854 evaluation board via the printer port connector J11.
If programming of the AD9854 is not to be provided by the host
PC via the ADI software, then headers W11, W12, W14, and W15
should be opened (shorting jumpers removed). This effectively
detaches the PC interface and allows the 40-pin header, J10, to
assume control without bus contention. Input signals on J10 going
to the AD9854 should be 3.3 V CMOS logic levels.
Low-Pass Filter Testing
The purpose of 2-pin headers W7 and W10 (associated with J1
and J2) are to allow the two 50 Ω, 120 MHz filters to be tested
during PCB assembly without interference from other circuitry
attached to the filter inputs. Normally, a shorting jumper will be
attached to each header to allow the DAC signals to be routed to the
filters. If the user wishes to test the filters, the shorting jumpers
at W7 and W10 should be removed and 50 Ω test signals applied
at J1 and J2 inputs to the 50 Ω elliptic filters. User should refer
to Figure 62 and the following sections to properly position the
remaining shorting jumpers.

AD9854
1. Install shorting jumpers at W7 and W10.
Observing the Unfiltered IOUT1 and the Unfiltered IOUT2
DAC Signals
This allows the viewer to observe the unfiltered DAC outputs at
J2 (the “I” signal) and J1 (the “Q” signal). The procedure below
simply routes the two 50 Ω terminated analog DAC outputs to
the BNC connectors and disconnects any other circuitry. The
“raw” DAC outputs will be a series of quantized (stepped) output
levels. The default 10 mA output current will develop a 0.5 V p-p
signal across the on-board 50 Ω termination. When connected
to an external 50 Ω input, the DAC will therefore develop 0.25 V p-p
due to the double termination.
1. Install shorting jumpers at W7 and W10.
2. Remove shorting jumper at W16.
3. Remove shorting jumper from 3-pin header W1.
4. Install shorting jumper on Pins 1 and 2 (bottom two pins) of
3-pin header W4.
Observing the Filtered IOUT1 and the Filtered IOUT2
This allows viewer to observe the filtered I and Q DAC outputs
at J4 (the “I” signal) and J3 (the “Q” signal). This places the
50 Ω (input and output Z) low-pass filters in the I and Q DAC
pathways to remove images and aliased harmonics and other
spurious signals above the dc to approximately 120 MHz bandpass. These signals will appear as nearly pure sine waves and
exactly 90 degrees out-of-phase with each other. These filters
are designed with the assumption that the system clock speed is
at or near maximum (300 MHz). If the system clock utilized is
much less than 300 MHz, for example 200 MHz, unwanted DAC
products other than the fundamental signal will be passed by the
low-pass filters.
1. Install shorting jumpers at W7 and W10.
2. Install shorting jumper at W16.
3. Install shorting jumper on Pins 1 and 2 (bottom two pins) of
3-pin header W1.
4. Install shorting jumper on Pins 1 and 2 (bottom two pins) of
3-pin header W4.
5. Install shorting jumper on Pins 1 and 2 (top two pins) of 3pin header W2 and W8.
Observing the Filtered I OUT and the Filtered IOUTB
This allows viewer to observe only the filtered “I” DAC outputs
at J4 (the “true” signal) and J3 (the “complementary” signal).
This places the 120 MHz low pass filters in the true and complementary output paths of the I DAC to remove images and aliased
harmonics and other spurious signals above approximately
120 MHz. These signals will appear as nearly pure sine waves
and exactly 180 degrees out-of-phase with each other. Again, if
the system clock used is much less than 300 MHz, for example
200 MHz, then unwanted DAC products other than the fundamental signal will be passed by the low-pass filters.
2. Install shorting jumper at W16.
3. Install shorting jumper on Pins 2 and 3 (top two pins) of 3pin header W1.
4. Install shorting jumper on Pins 2 and 3 (top two pins) of 3pin header W4.
5. Install shorting jumper on Pins 1 and 2 (top two pins) of 3pin header W2 and W8.
To connect the high-speed comparator to the DAC output signals choose either the quadrature filtered output configuration
or the complementary filtered output configuration as outlined
above. Follow Steps 1 through 4 above, for the desired filtered
configuration. Step 5 below will reroute the filtered signals away
from their connectors (J3 and J4) and connect them to the 100 Ω
configured comparator inputs. This configures the comparator
for differential input without control of the comparator output
duty cycle. The comparator output duty cycle should be approximately 50% in this configuration.
5. Install shorting jumper on Pins 2 and 3 (bottom two pins) of
3-pin header W2 and W8.
User may elect to change the RSET resistor, R2 from 3.9 kΩ to
2 kΩ to get a more robust signal at the comparator inputs. This
will decrease jitter and extend comparator operating range. This
can be accomplished by soldering a second 3.9 kΩ chip resistor
in parallel with the provided R2.
Connecting the High-Speed Comparator in a Single-Ended
Configuration
This will allow duty cycle or pulse width control and requires that a
dc threshold voltage be present at one of the comparator inputs.
You may supply this voltage using the “Q DAC” by configuring
it as a control DAC in software or by removing the shorting jumper
at 2-pin header W6. A 12-bit, twos-complement value is written
to the Q-DAC register that will set the IOUT2 output to a static
dc level. Allowable hexadecimal values are 7FF (maximum) to
800 (minimum) with all 0s being midscale. The IOUT1 channel
will continue to output a filtered sine wave programmed by the
user. These two signals are routed to the comparator inputs
using W2 and W8 3-pin header switches. The configuration
described above entitled “Observing the Filtered I OUT and the
Filtered I OUTB” must be used. Follow Steps 1 through 4 and
then the following Step 5:
5. Install shorting jumper on Pins 2 and 3 (bottom two pins) of
3-pin header W2 and W8.
User should elect to change the RSET resistor from 3900 Ω to
1950 Ω to get a more robust signal at the comparator inputs.
This will decrease jitter and extend comparator operating range.
User can accomplish this by soldering a second 3.9 kΩ chip
resistor in parallel with the provided R2.

AD9854
The control software for the AD9854/PCB evaluation board is
provided on a CD. This brief set of instructions should be used
in conjunction with the AD9854/PCB evaluation board schematic.
Several numerical entries, such as frequency and phase information, require that the ENTER key by pressed to register
that information.
1. Select the proper printer port. Click the “Parallel Port” selection in the menu bar. Select the port that matches your PC.
If unknown, experiment by performing the following on the
selected port. With the part powered up, properly clocked and
connected to the PC, select a port and go to the “Mode and
Frequency” menu and click the “Reset DUT and Initialize
Registers” button. Then go to the “Clock and Amplitude”
menu. Once there, click the box next to “Bypass Inverse Sinc
Filter” . . . a check mark will appear in the box . . . next click
the button “Send Control Info to DUT.” If the proper port
has been selected, the supply current going to the AD9854/
PCB evaluation board should drop by approximately 1/3 when
the inverse sinc filters are bypassed. Conversely, the supply
current will increase approximately 1/3 when the inverse sinc
filters are engaged.
4. The output amplitude defaults to the 12-bit straight binary
multiplier values of the I and Q multiplier registers of 000hex
and no output should be seen from the DACs. User should
now set both multiplier amplitudes in the Output Amplitude
window to a substantial value, such as FFFhex. You may
bypass the digital multiplier by clicking the box “Output
Amplitude is always Full-Scale” but experience has shown
that doing so does not result in best SFDR. It is interesting
to note that best SFDR, as much as 11 dB better, is obtained
by routing the signal through the digital multiplier and “backing
off” on the multiplier amplitude. For instance, FC0 hex
produces less spurious signal amplitude than FFF hex. Its a
repeatable phenomenon that should be investigated exploited
for maximum SFDR (spurious-free dynamic range).
5. Refer to this data sheet and evaluation board schematic to
understand all the functions of the AD9854 available to the
user and to gain an understanding of what the software is
doing in response to programming commands.
Applications assistance is available for the AD9854, the
AD9854/PCB evaluation board, and all other Analog Devices
products. Please call 1/800-ANALOGD.
2. Normal operation of the AD9854/PCB evaluation board begins with a master reset. Many of the default register values
after reset are depicted in the software “control panel.” The
reset command sets the DDS output amplitude to minimum
and 0 Hz, 0 phase-offset as well as other states listed in the
AD9854 Register Layout table in the preliminary data sheet.
3. The next programming block should be the “Reference Clock
and Multiplier” since this information is used to determine
the proper 48-bit frequency tuning words that will be entered
and calculated later.
