AD9910
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9910 is a direct digital synthesizer (DDS) featuring an
integrated 14-bit DAC and supporting sample rates up to 1
GSPS. The AD9910 employs an advanced, proprietary DDS
technology that provides a significant reduction in power consumption without sacrificing performance. The DDS/DAC
combination forms a digitally programmable, high frequency,
analog output synthesizer capable of generating a frequencyagile sinusoidal waveform at frequencies up to 400 MHz. The
user has access to the three signal control parameters used to
control the DDS: frequency, phase and amplitude. The DDS
provides fast frequency hopping and frequency tuning resolution with its 32-bit accumulator. With a 1GSPS sample rate, the
tuning resolution is ~0.23Hz. The DDS also enables fast phase
and amplitude switching capability.
The AD9910 is controlled by programming its internal control
registers via a serial I/O port. The AD9910 includes an integrated static RAM to support various combinations of frequency, phase and/or amplitude modulation. The AD9910 also
supports a user defined, digitally controlled, linear sweep mode
of operation. In this mode frequency, phase or amplitude can
be varied linearly over time. For more advanced modulation
functions, a high speed parallel data input port is included to
enable direct frequency, phase, amplitude, or polar modulation.
The AD9910 is specified to operate over the extended industrial
temperature range (see Absolute Max Ratings table).

SYSCLK Cycles
To achieve the best possible phase noise, the largest amplitude clock possible should be used. Reducing the clock input amplitude will reduce the phase noise performance of the device.
Wake-up time refers to the recovery from analog power-down modes (see section on Power-Down Modes of Operation). The longest time required is for the reference
clock multiplier PLL to relock to the reference. The wake-up time assumes there is no capacitor on DAC_BP and that the recommended PLL loop filter values are used.
3
SYSCLK cycle refers to the actual clock frequency used on-chip by the DDS. If the reference clock multiplier is used to multiply the external reference clock frequency,
the SYSCLK frequency is the external frequency multiplied by the reference clock multiplication factor. If the reference clock multiplier is not used, the SYSCLK frequency is the same as the external reference clock frequency.
4
SYNC_CLK = ¼ SYSCLK rate. For SYNC_CLK rates ≥ 50 MHz, the high speed sync enable bit, CFR2<11>, should be set.
5
This parameter indicates that the digital synchronization feature cannot overcome phase delays (timing skew) between system clock rising edges. If the system clock
edges are aligned, the synchronization function should not increase the skew between the two edges.

MODES OF OPERATION
This function employs a separate digital linear ramp generator
that only affects the DDS's amplitude parameter. As such, the
OSK function can not be used when one of the modulation
modes is operating on the DDS's amplitude parameter.
The AD9910 has four modes of operation.
1)
2)
3)
4)
Single-tone mode
RAM modulation mode
Linear ramp modulation mode
Parallel data port modulation mode
SINGLE-TONE MODE
The modes relate to the data source used to supply the DDS
with its signal control parameters: frequency, phase, and amplitude. The partitioning of the data into different combinations
of frequency, phase, and amplitude is handled automatically
based on the mode and/or specific control bits.
In single-tone mode, data is routed to the DDS directly from the
programming registers. In RAM modulation mode, data is
routed to the DDS directly from the contents of the RAM. In
linear ramp modulation mode, data is routed to the DDS from a
digital ramp generator. In parallel data port modulation mode,
data is routed to the DDS directly from the parallel data port.
NOTE: The various modulation modes generally operate on only
one of the DDS signal control parameters (two in the case of the
polar modulation format). The static (i.e., unmodulated) DDS
signal control parameters are stored in their appropriate programming registers and automatically routed to the DDS based
on the selected mode.
A separate output shift keying (OSK) function is also available.
In single-tone mode (Figure 4), the three DDS signal control
parameters are supplied directly from the programming registers. The device can be programmed to operate with or without
profiles. A profile is an independent register that contains the
three DDS signal control parameters. There are eight available
Profile Registers.
When programmed to operate with parameter profiles, each
profile can be accessed independently. A particular profile is
made selected via the three external Profile Select Pins. A
change in the state of the Profile Select Pins along with the next
rising edge of Sync Clock updates the DDS with the parameters
specified by the selected profile.
NOTE: When the OSK function is enabled, its amplitude data
overrides the amplitude parameter stored in the Profile Registers.
When programmed to operate without profiles the three DDS
signal control parameters reside in separate registers. Frequency is controlled via the FTW register. Phase offset is controlled via the POW register. Amplitude is controlled via the
amplitude scale factor that resides in the ASF register.

Rev. PrD| Page 10 of 13
PRELIMINARY TECHNICAL DATA
AD9910
RAM MODULATION MODE
In RAM modulation mode (Figure 5) the modulated DDS signal control parameter(s) are supplied directly from RAM. The
RAM contains 1024 32-bit words. It provides a very flexible
method for generating arbitrary, time-dependent data patterns.
The rate at which words are extracted from the RAM is controlled by a programmable timer. Thus, each word can be
thought of as a 32-bit sample, which successive samples delivered at a sample rate determined by the programmable timer.
The destination of the samples is also under program control.
That is, the sample can be routed to any of the three DDS con-
trol parameters; frequency, phase, and amplitude. The ability to
generate a time-dependent amplitude, phase, or frequency signal enables modulation of any one of the parameters controlling
the DDS carrier signal. In addition, a polar modulation format
is also available, in which each RAM sample is partitioned into
a magnitude and phase component: 16 bits phase allocated to
phase and 14 bits allocated to magnitude.
NOTE: When the OSK function is enabled, its amplitude data
overrides any RAM data that is destined for the DDS amplitude
control parameter.
Figure 5: RAM modulation mode
LINEAR RAMP MODULATION MODE
In linear ramp modulation mode (Figure 6), the modulated
DDS signal control parameter is supplied directly from Linear
Ramp Generator. The ramp generation parameters are controlled via the serial I/O port.
The ramp generation parameters allow the user to control both
the rising and falling slopes of the ramp. The upper and lower
boundaries of the ramp, the step size and step rate of the rising
portion of the ramp, and the step size and step rate of the falling
portion of the ramp are all programmable.
The ramp is digitally generated with 32-bit output resolution.
The 32-bit output of the Linear Ramp Generator can be programmed to represent frequency, phase, or amplitude. When
programmed to represent frequency all 32 bits are used. However, when programmed to represent phase or amplitude, only
the 16 MSBs or 14 MSB, respectively, are used.
The ramp direction (rising/falling) is controlled externally by
the LSCTL pin. An additional pin (LSHOLD) allows the user to
freeze the ramp generator at its present state.
NOTE: When the OSK function is enabled, its amplitude data
overrides any Linear Ramp data that is destined for the DDS amplitude control parameter.

AD9910
Figure 6: Linear ramp modulation mode
PARALLEL DATA PORT MODULATION MODE
In parallel data port modulation mode (Figure 7) the modulated DDS signal control parameter(s) are supplied directly
from the 18-bit parallel data port.
Table 2 defines the relationship between the destination bits, the
partitioning of the 16-bit data word and the destination of the
data (in terms of the DDS signal control parameters).
NOTE: When the OSK function is enabled, its amplitude data
overrides any parallel port data that is destined for the DDS amplitude control parameter.
The sample rate of the parallel data port is ¼ of the DAC sample
rate. The AD9910 generates the PDCLK signal, which is a clock
signal that runs at ¼ of the DAC sample rate and serves as a
data clock. Each rising edge of PDCLK is used to latch the 18
bits of user-supplied data into the data port.
The AD9910 also accepts a user generated TxEn signal that acts
as a gate for the user supplied data. When TxEn is logic 0 the
device ignores the data supplied to the port. However, internally, the 16-bit data words are either forced to logic zeros or
held at their last state when TxEn transitions from a logic 1 to a
The data port is partitioned into two sections. The 16 MSBs make up a 16-bit
data word and the 2 LSBs make up a 2-bit destination word. The destination
word defines how the 16-bit data word is applied to the DDS signal control
parameters.
logic 0. The treatment of the 16-bit data words when TxEn is
logic 0 is controlled by a bit in the programming registers. The
destination bits, on the other hand, always retain their last state
when TxEn transitions to a logic 0.
When the destination bits indicate that the data word is destined as a DDS frequency parameter, there is an additional consideration. Recall that the DDS frequency parameter is a 32-bit
word. However, the data word is only 16 bits, which means that
the 16-bit data word must somehow be properly aligned with
the 32-bit frequency parameter. This is accomplished by means
of 4-bit FM Gain word in the programming registers. The FM
Gain word allows the user to apply a weighting factor to the 16bit data word.
The default value of the FM Gain word is 0. In the default state,
the data word and the DDS frequency parameter are LSB
aligned. Each increment in the value of the FM Gain word
shifts the 16-bit data word to the left relative to the DDS fre-

the maximum frequency range spanned by the data word.
