7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices are an ultra-wideband sampling and digital tuning subsystem. The devices combine a very-wideband and high sampling-rate ADC front-end with a configurable digital-down conversion block. This combination provides the necessary features to facilitate the development of flexible software-defined radio products for a wide range of communications applications.

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices are based on an ultra high-speed ADC core. The core uses an interleaved calibrated folding and interpolating architecture that results in very high sampling rate, very good dynamic performance, and relatively low-power consumption. This ADC core is followed by a configurable DDC block which is implemented on a small geometry CMOS. The DDC block provides a range of decimation settings that allow the product to work in ultra-wideband, wideband, and more-narrow-band receive systems. The output data from the DDC block is transmitted through a JESD204B-compatible multi-lane serial-output system. This system minimizes the number of data pairs required to convey the output data to the downstream processing circuitry.

7.3 Feature Description

7.3.1 Signal Acquisition

The analog input is sampled on the rising edge of CLK and the digital equivalent of that data is available in the serialized datastream t_(LAT) or t_{(LAT_DDC)} input clock cycles later.

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices convert as long as the input clock signal is present. The fully-differential comparator design and the innovative design of the sample-and-hold amplifier, together with calibration, enables very good performance at input frequencies beyond 3 GHz. The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 data is output on a high-speed serial JESD204B interface.

7.3.2 The Analog Inputs

A differential input signal must be used to drive the ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices. Operation with a single-ended signal is not recommended as performance suffers. The input signals can be either be AC coupled or DC coupled. The analog inputs are internally connected to the V_CMO bias voltage. When DC-coupled input signals are used, the common mode voltage of the applied signal must meet the device Input common mode requirements. See V_CMI in the Recommended Operating Conditions table.

The full-scale input range for each converter can be adjusted through the serial interface. See the Full Scale Range Adjust section.

The buffered analog inputs simplify the task of driving these inputs and the RC pole that is generally used at sampling ADC inputs is not required. If an amplifier circuit before the ADC is desired, use care when selecting an amplifier with adequate noise and distortion performance and adequate gain at the frequencies used for the application. If gain is not required, a balun (balanced-to-unbalanced transformer) is generally used to provide single ended (SE) to differential conversion.

The input impedance of VIN± consists of two 50-Ω resistors in series between the inputs and a capacitance from each of these inputs to ground. A resistance of approximately 20 kΩ exists from the center point of the 50-Ω resistors to the on-chip V_CMO providing self-biasing for AC-coupled applications.

Performance is good in both DC-coupled mode and AC coupled mode, provided the common-mode voltage at the analog input is within specifications.

7.3.2.1 Input Clamp

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 maximum DC input voltage is limited to the range 0 to 2 V to prevent damage to the device. To help maintain these limits, an active input clamping circuit is incorporated which sources or sinks input currents up to ±50 mA. The clamping circuit is enabled by default and is controlled via the Input_Clamp_EN bit (register 0x034, bit 5). The protection provided by this circuit is limited as follows:

Shunt current-clamping is only effective for non-zero source impedances.
At frequencies above 3 GHz the clamping is ineffective because of the finite turn-on and turn-off time of the switch.

With these limitations in mind, analysis has been done to determine the allowable input signal levels as a function of input frequency when the Input Clamp is enabled, assuming the source impedance matches the input impedance of the device (100-Ω differential). This information is incorporated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.

7.3.2.2 AC Coupled Input Usage

The easiest way to accomplish SE-to-differential conversion for AC-coupled signals is with an appropriate balun.

Figure 64. Single-Ended-to-Differential Signal Conversion With a Balun

Figure 64 shows a generic depiction of a SE-to-differential signal conversion using a balun. The circuitry specific to the balun depends on the type of balun selected and the overall board layout. TI recommends that the system designer contact the manufacturer of the selected balun to aid in designing the best performing single-ended to differential conversion circuit using that particular balun.

When selecting a balun, understanding the input architecture of the ADC is important. Specific balun parameters must be considered. The balun must match the impedance of the analog source to the on-chip 100-Ω differential input termination of the ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices. The range of this input termination resistor is described in the Electrical Characteristics table as the specification R_ID.

Also, as a result of the ADC architecture, the phase and amplitude balance are important. The lowest possible phase and amplitude imbalance is desired when selecting a balun. The phase imbalance must be no more than ±2.5° and the amplitude imbalance must be limited to less than 1 dB at the desired input frequency range.

Finally, when selecting a balun, the voltage standing-wave ratio (VSWR), bandwidth, and insertion loss of the balun must also be considered. The VSWR aids in determining the overall transmission line termination capability of the balun when interfacing to the ADC input. The insertion loss must be considered so that the signal at the balun output is within the specified input range of the ADC as described in the Electrical Characteristics table as the specification V_ID.

Table 1 lists the recommended baluns for specific signal frequency ranges.

Table 1. Balun Recommendations

MINIMUM FREQUENCY (MHz)	MAXIMUM FREQUENCY (MHz)	IMPEDANCE RATIO	PART NUMBER	MANUFACTURER
4.5	3000	1:1	TC1-1-13MA+	Mini-Circuits
400	3000	1:2	B0430J50100AHF	Anaren
30	1800	1:2	ADTL2-18+	Mini-Circuits
10	4000	1:2	TCM2-43X+	Mini-Circuits

7.3.2.3 DC Coupled Input Usage

When a DC-coupled signal source is used, the common mode voltage of the applied signal must be within a specified range (V_CMI). To achieve this range, the common mode of the driver should be based on the VCMO output provided for this purpose.

Full-scale distortion performance degrades as the input common-mode voltage deviates from VCMO. Therefore, maintaining the input common-mode voltage within the V_CMI range is important.

Table 2 lists the recommended amplifiers for DC-coupled usage or if AC-coupling with gain is required.

Table 2. Amplifier Recommendations

–3-dB BANDWIDTH (MHz)	MIN GAIN (dB)	MAX GAIN (dB)	GAIN TYPE	PART NUMBER
7000	16	16	Fixed	LMH3401
2800	0	17	Resistor set	LMH6554
2400	6	26	Digital programmable	LMH6881
900	–1.16	38.8	Digital programmable	LMH6518

7.3.2.4 Handling Single-Ended Input Signals

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices have no provision to adequately process single-ended input signals. The best way to handle single-ended signals is to convert these signals to balanced differential signals before presenting the signals to the ADC.

7.3.3 Clocking

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices have a differential clock input, DEVCLK+ and DEVCLK–, that must be driven with an AC-coupled differential clock-signal. The clock inputs are internally terminated and biased. The input clock signal must be capacitively coupled to the clock pins as shown in Figure 65.

Figure 65. Differential Sample-Clock Connection

The differential sample-clock line pair must have a characteristic impedance of 100 Ω and must be terminated at the clock source of that 100-Ω characteristic impedance. The input clock line must be as short and direct as possible. The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 clock input is internally terminated with an untrimmed 100-Ω resistance.

Insufficient input clock levels results in poor dynamic performance. Excessively-high input-clock levels can cause a change in the analog-input offset voltage. To avoid these issues, maintain the input clock level within the range specified in the Electrical Characteristics table.

The low times and high times of the input clock signal can affect the performance of any ADC. The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices feature a duty-cycle clock-correction circuit which maintains performance over temperature. The ADC meets the performance specification when the input clock high times and low times are maintained as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table.

High-speed high-performance ADCs such as the ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices require a very-stable input clock-signal with minimum phase noise or jitter. ADC jitter requirements are defined by the ADC resolution or ENOB (effective number of bits), maximum ADC input frequency, and the input signal amplitude relative to the ADC input full-scale range. Use Equation 1 to calculate the maximum jitter (the sum of the jitter from all sources) allowed to prevent a jitter-induced reduction in SNR.

Equation 1. ADC12J1600 ADC12J2700 eq_01_slas989.gif

where

RMS_tot(J) is the RMS total of all jitter sources in seconds
V_I(PP) is the peak-to-peak analog input signal
V_FSR is the full-scale range of the ADC
n is the ADC resolution in bits
F_IN is the maximum input frequency, in Hertz, at the ADC analog input

Note that the maximum jitter previously described is the root sum square (RSS) of the jitter from all sources, including that from the clock source, the jitter added by noise coupling at board level and that added internally by the ADC clock circuitry, in addition to any jitter added to the input signal. Because the effective jitter added by the ADC is beyond user control, the best option is to minimize the jitter from the clock source, the sum of the externally-added input clock jitter and the jitter added by any circuitry to the analog signal.

Input clock amplitudes above those specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table can result in increased input-offset voltage. Increased input-offset voltage causes the converter to produce an output code other than the expected 2048 when both input pins are at the same potential.

7.3.4 Over-Range Function

To ensure that system-gain management has the quickest-possible response time, a low-latency configurable over-range function is included. The over-range function works by monitoring the raw 12-bit samples exiting the ADC module. The upper 8 bits of the magnitude of the ADC data are checked against two programmable thresholds, OVR_T0 and OVR_T1. The following table lists how a raw ADC value is converted to an absolute value for a comparison of the thresholds.

ADC SAMPLE (OFFSET BINARY)	ADC SAMPLE (2's COMPLEMENT)	ABSOLUTE VALUE	UPPER 8 BITS USED FOR COMPARISON
1111 1111 1111 (4095)	0111 1111 1111 (+2047)	111 1111 1111 (2047)	1111 1111 (255)
1111 1111 0000 (4080)	0111 1111 0000 (+2032)	111 1111 0000 (2032)	1111 1110 (254)
1000 0000 0000 (2048)	0000 0000 0000 (0)	000 0000 0000 (0)	0000 0000 (0)
0000 0001 0000 (16)	1000 0001 0000 (-2032)	111 1111 0000 (2032)	1111 1110 (254)
0000 0000 0000 (0)	1000 0000 0000 (-2048)	111 1111 1111 (2047)	1111 1111 (255)

If the upper 8 bits of the absolute value equal or exceed the OVR_T0 or OVR_T1 threshold during the monitoring period, then the over-range bit associated with the threshold is set to 1, otherwise the over-range bit is 0. The resulting over-range bits are embedded into the complex output data samples and output on OR_T0 and OR_T1. Table 3 lists the outputs, related data samples, threshold settings and the monitoring period equation.

Table 3. Threshold and Monitor Period for Embedded OR Bits

EMBEDDED OVER-RANGE OUTPUTS	ASSOCIATED THRESHOLD	ASSOCIATED SAMPLES	MONITORING PERIOD (ADC SAMPLES)
OR_T0	OVR_T0	In-Phase (I) samples	2^OVR_N⁽¹⁾
OR_T1	OVR_T1	Quadrature (Q) samples	2^OVR_N⁽¹⁾

(1) OVR_N is the monitoring period register setting.

Table 4. Over-Range Monitoring Period

OVR_N	MONITORING PERIOD
0	1
1	2
2	4
3	8
4	16
5	32
6	64
7	128

Typically, the OVR_T0 threshold can be set near the full-scale value (228 for example). When the threshold is triggered, a typical system can turn down the system gain to avoid clipping. The OVR_T1 threshold can be set much lower. For example, the OVR_T1 threshold can be set to 64 (−12 dBFS). If the input signal is strong, the OVR_T1 threshold is tripped occasionally. If the input is quite weak, the threshold is never tripped. The downstream logic device monitors the OVR_T1 bit. If OVR_T1 stays low for an extended period of time, then the system gain can be increased until the threshold is occasionally tripped (meaning the peak level of the signal is above −12 dBFS).

The OR_T0 threshold is embedded as the LSB along with the upper 15 bits of every complex I sample. The OR_T1 threshold is embedded as the LSB along with the upper 15 bits of every complex Q sample.

7.3.5 ADC Core Features

7.3.5.1 The Reference Voltage

The reference voltage for the ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices is derived from an internal bandgap reference. A buffered version of the reference voltage is available at the VBG pin for user convenience. This output has an output-current capability of ±100 μA. The VBG output must be buffered if more current is required. No provision exists for the use of an external reference voltage, but the full-scale input voltage can be adjusted through the full-scale-range register settings.

7.3.5.2 Common-Mode Voltage Generation

The internal reference voltage is used to generate a stable common-mode voltage reference for the analog Inputs and the DEVCLK and SYSREF differential-clock inputs.

7.3.5.3 Bias Current Generation

An external bias resistor, in combination with the on-chip voltage reference is used to provide an accurate and stable source of bias currents for internal circuitry. Using an external accurate resistor minimizes variation in device power consumption and performance.

7.3.5.4 Full Scale Range Adjust

The ADC input full-scale range can be adjusted through the GAIN_FS register setting (registers 0x022 and 0x023). The adjustment range is approximately 500 mV_PP to 950 mV_PP. The full-scale range adjustment is useful for matching the input-signal amplitude to the ADC full scale, or to match the full-scale range of multiple ADCs when developing a multi-converter system.

7.3.5.5 Offset Adjust

The ADC-input offset voltage can be adjusted through the OFFSET_FS register setting (registers 0x025 and 0x026). The adjustment range is approximately 28 mV to –28 mV differential.

NOTE

Offset adjust has no effect when background calibration mode is enabled.

7.3.5.6 Power-Down

The power-down bit (PD) allows the ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 devices to be entirely powered down. The serial data output drivers are disabled when PD is high. When the device returns to normal operation, the JESD204 link must be re-established, and the ADC pipeline and decimation filters contain meaningless information and must be flushed.

7.3.5.7 Built-In Temperature Monitor Diode

A built-in thermal monitoring diode junction is made available on the TDIODE+ and TDIODE– pins. This diode facilitates temperature monitoring and characterization of the device in higher ambient temperature environments. While the on-chip diode is not highly characterized, the diode can be used effectively by performing a baseline measurement at a known ambient or board temperature with the device in power-down (PD) mode. Recommended monitoring ICs include the LM95233 device and similar remote-diode temperature monitoring products from Texas Instruments.

7.3.6 Digital Down Converter (DDC)

The digitized data is the input to the digital down-converter block. This block provides frequency conversion and decimation filtering to allow a specific range of frequencies to be selected and output in the digital data stream.

7.3.6.1 NCO/Mixer

The DDC contains a complex numerically-controlled oscillator and a complex mixer. The oscillator generates a complex exponential sequence shown in Equation 2.

Equation 2. x[n] = e^jωn

The frequency (ω) is specified by the a 32-bit register setting. The complex exponential sequence is multiplied by the real input from the ADC to mix the desired carrier down to 0 Hz.

7.3.6.2 NCO Settings

7.3.6.2.1 NCO Frequency Phase Selection

Within the DDC, eight different frequency and phase settings are always available for use. Each of the eight settings uses a different phase accumulator within the NCO. Because all eight phase accumulators are continuously running independently, rapid switching between different NCO frequencies is possible allowing rapid tuning of different signals.

The specific frequency-phase pair in use is selected through either the NCO_x input pins, or the NCO_SEL configuration bits (register 0x20D, bits 2:0). The CFG_MODE bit (register 0x20C, bit 0) is used to choose whether the input pins or selection bits are used. When the CFG_MODE bit is set to 0, the NCO_x input pins select the active NCO frequency and phase setting. When the CFG_MODE bit is set to 1, the NCO_SEL register settings select the active NCO frequency and phase setting.

The frequency for each phase accumulator is programmed independently through the NCO_FREQn (and optionally NCO_RDIV) settings. The phase offset for each accumulator is programmed independently through the NCO_PHASEn register settings.

7.3.6.2.2 NCO_0, NCO_1, and NCO_2 (NCO_x)

When the CFG_MODE bit is set to 0, the state of these three inputs determines the active NCO frequency and phase accumulator settings.

7.3.6.2.3 NCO_SEL Bits (2:0)

When the CFG_MODE bit is set to 1, the state of these register bits determines the active NCO frequency and phase accumulator settings.

7.3.6.2.4 NCO Frequency Setting (Eight Total)

7.3.6.2.4.1 Basic NCO Frequency-Setting Mode

In basic NCO frequency-setting mode, the NCO frequency setting is set by the 32-bit register value, NCO_FREQn (n = preset 0 trough 7, see the NCO Frequency (Preset x) Register section).

Equation 3. (n = 0 – 7) ƒ_(NCO) = NCO_FREQn × 2^–32 × ƒ_(DEVCLK)

NOTE

Changing the register setting after the JESD204B interface is running results in non-deterministic NCO phase. If deterministic phase is required, the JESD204B link must be re-initialized after changing the register setting. See the Multiple ADC Synchronization section.

7.3.6.2.4.2 Rational NCO Frequency Setting Mode

In basic NCO frequency mode, the frequency step size is very small and many frequencies can be synthesized, but sometimes an application requires very specific frequencies that fall between two frequency steps. For example with ƒ_S equal to 2457.6 MHz and a desired ƒ_(NCO) equal to 5.02 MHz the value for NCO_FREQ is 8773085.867. Truncating the fractional portion results in an ƒ_(NCO) equal to 5.0199995 MHz, which is not the desired frequency.

To produce the desired frequency, the NCO_RDIV parameter is used to force the phase accumulator to arrive at specific frequencies without error. First, select a frequency step size (ƒ_(STEP)) that is appropriate for the NCO frequency steps required. The typical value of ƒ_(STEP) is 10 kHz. Next, program the NCO_RDIV value according to Equation 4.

Equation 4. ADC12J1600 ADC12J2700 eq_02_slas989.gif

The result of Equation 4 must be an integer value. If the value is not an integer, adjust either of the parameters until the result in an integer value.

For example, select a value of 1920 for NCO_RDIV.

NOTE

NCO_RDIV values larger than 8192 can degrade the NCO SFDR performance and are not recommended.

Now use Equation 5 to calculate the NCO_FREQ register value.

Equation 5. ADC12J1600 ADC12J2700 eq_03_slas989.gif

Alternatively, the following equations can be used:

Table 5. Common NCO_RDIV Values (For 10-kHz Frequency Steps)

ƒ_(DEVCLK) (MHz)	NCO_RDIV
2457.6	1920
1966.08	1536
1474.56	1152
1228.8	960

7.3.6.2.5 NCO Phase-Offset Setting (Eight Total)

The NCO phase-offset setting is set by the 16-bit register value NCO_PHASEn (n = preset 0 trough 7, see the NCO Phase (Preset x) Register section). The value is left-justified into a 32-bit field and then added to the phase accumulator.

Use Equation 8 to calculate the phase offset in radians.

Equation 8. NCO_PHASEn × 2^–16 × 2 × π

NOTE

7.3.6.2.6 Programmable DDC Delay

The DDC Filter elements incorporate a programmable sample delay. The delay can be programmed from 0 to (decimation setting – 0.5) ADC sample periods. The delay step-size is 0.5 ADC sample periods. The delay settings are programmed through the DDC_DLYn parameter.

4	0	3.5
8	0	7.5
10	0	9.5
16	0	15.5
20	0	19.5
32	0	31.5

7.3.6.3 Decimation Filters

The decimation filters are arranged to provide a programmable overall decimation of 4, 8, 10, 16, 20, or 32. The input and output of each filter is complex. The output data consists of 15-bit complex baseband information. Table 7 lists the effective output sample rates.

For maximum efficiency a group of high speed filter blocks are implemented with specific blocks used for each decimation setting. The first table below describes the combination of filter blocks used for each decimation setting. The next table lists the coefficient details and decimation factor of each filter block.

The DDC output data consist of 15-bit complex data plus the two over-range threshold-detection control bits. The following table lists the data format:

	16-BIT OUTPUT WORD
CHANNEL	15	14	13	12	11	10	9	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1	0
I	DDC Output In-Phase (I) 15 bit															OR_T0
Q	DDC Output Quadrature (Q) 15 bit															OR_T1

7.3.6.5 Decimation Settings

7.3.6.5.1 Decimation Factor

The decimation setting is adjustable over the following settings:

Bypass — no decimation
Decimate-by-4
Decimate-by-8
Decimate-by-10
Decimate-by-16
Decimate-by-20
Decimate-by-32

NOTE

Because the output format is complex I+Q, the effective output bandwidth is approximately two-times the value for a real output with the same decimation factor.

7.3.6.5.2 DDC Gain Boost

The DDC gain boost (register 0x200, bit 4) provides additional gain through the DDC block. With a setting of 1 the final filter has 6.02-dB gain. With a setting of 0, the final filter has a 0-dB gain. This setting is recommended when the NCO is set near DC.

7.3.7 Data Outputs

The data outputs (DSx±) are very high-speed differential outputs and conform to the JESD204B JEDEC standard. A CML (current-mode logic)-type output driver is used for each output pair. Output pre-emphasis is adjustable to compensate for longer PCB-trace lengths.

7.3.7.1 The Digital Outputs

The ADC12J1600 and ADC12J2700 output data is transmitted on up to eight high-speed serial-data lanes. The output data from the ADC or DDC is formatted to the eight lanes, 8b10b encoded, and serialized. Up to four different serial output rates are possible depending on the decimation mode setting: 1x, 1.25x, 2x, and 2.5x. In 1x mode, the output serializers run at the same bit rate as the frequency of the applied DEVCLK. In 1.25x mode, the output serializers run at a bit rate that is 1.25-times that of the applied DEVCLK, and so on. For example, for a 1.6-GHz input DEVCLK, the output rates are 1.6 Gbps in 1x mode, 2 Gbps in 1.25x mode, 3.2 Gbps in 2x mode and 4 Gbps in 2.5x mode.

7.3.7.2 JESD204B Interface Features and Settings

7.3.7.2.1 Scrambler Enable

Scrambling randomizes the 8b10b encoded data, spreading the frequency content of the data interface. This reduces the peak EMI energy at any given frequency reducing the possibility of feedback to the device inputs impacting performance. The scrambler is disabled by default and is enabled via SCR (register 0x201, bit 7).

7.3.7.2.2 Frames Per Multi-Frame (K-1)

The frames per multi-frame (K) setting can be adjusted within constraints that are dependant on the selected decimation (D) and serial rate (DDR) settings. The K-minus-1 (KM1) register setting (register 0x201, bits 6:2) must be one less than the desired K setting.

7.3.7.2.3 DDR

The serial rate can be either 1ƒ_(CLK) (DDR = 0) or 2ƒ_(CLK) (DDR = 1).

7.3.7.2.4 JESD Enable

The JESD interface must be disabled (JESD_EN is set to 0) while any of the other JESD parameters are changed. While JESD_EN is set 0 the block is held in reset and the serializers are powered down. The clocks for this section are also gated off to further save power. When the parameters have been set as desired the JESD block can be enabled (JESD_EN is set to 1).

7.3.7.2.5 JESD Test Modes

Several different JESD204B test modes are available to assist in link verification and debugging. The list of modes follows.

NOTE

PRBS test signals are output directly, without 8b10b encoding.

Normal operation
PRBS7 test mode
PRBS15 test mode
PRBS23 test mode
Ramp test mode
Short or long transport-layer test mode
D21.5 test mode
K28.5 test mode
Repeated ILA test mode
Modified RPAT test mode
Serial-outputs differential 0 test mode
Serial-outputs differential 1 test mode

7.3.7.2.6 Configurable Pre-Emphasis

The high-speed serial-output drivers incorporate a configurable pre-emphasis feature. This feature allows the output drive waveform to be optimized for different PCB materials and signal transmission distances. The pre-emphasis setting is adjusted through the serializer pre-emphasis setting in register 0x040, bits 3 to 0. The default setting is 4d. Higher values will increase the pre-emphasis to compensate for more lossy PCB materials. This adjustment is best used in conjunction with an eye-diagram analysis capability in the receiver. The pre-emphasis setting should be adjusted to optimize the eye-opening for the hardware configuration and line rates needed.

7.3.7.2.7 Serial Output-Data Formatting

Output data is generated by the DDC then formatted according to the selected decimation and output rate settings. When less than the maximum of eight lanes are active, lanes are disabled beginning with the highest numerical lanes. For example when only two lanes are active, lanes 0 and 1 are active, while all higher lanes are inactive.

Output data is formatted in a specific optimized fashion for each decimation and DDR setting combination. For bypass mode (decimation = 1) the 12-bit offset binary values are mapped to the 8-bit characters. For the DDC mode the 16-bit values (15-bit complex data plus 1 bit OR_Tn) are mapped to the 8-bit characters. The following tables list the specific mapping formats. In all mappings the T or tail bits are 0 (zero).

The formatted data is 8b10b encoded and output on the serial lanes. The 8b10b encoding provides a number of specific benefits, including:

Standard encoding format. Therefore the IP is readily available in off-the-shelf FPGAs and ASIC building blocks.
Inherent DC balance allows AC coupling of lanes with small on-chip capacitors
Inherent error checking

7.3.7.2.8 JESD204B Synchronization Features

The JESD204B standard defines methods for synchronization and deterministic latency in a multi-converter system. These devices are a JESD204B Subclass 1 device and conforms to the various aspects of link operation as described in section 5.3.3 of the JESD204B standard. The specific signals used to achieve link operation are described briefly in the following sections.

7.3.7.2.9 SYSREF

The SYSREF is a periodic signal which is sampled by the device clock, and is used to align the boundary of the local multi-frame clock inside the data converter. SYSREF

is required to be a sub-harmonic of the LMFC internal timing. To meet this requirement, the timing of SYSREF is dependent on the device clock frequency and the LMFC frequency as determined by the selected DDC decimation and frames per multi-frame settings. This clock is typically in the range of 10 MHz to 300 MHz. See the Multiple ADC Synchronization section for more details on SYSREF timing requirements.

7.3.7.2.10 SYNC~

SYNC~ is asserted by the receiver to initiate a synchronization event.

Single ended and differential SYNC~ inputs are provided. The SYNC_DIFFSEL bit (register 0x202, bit 6) is used to select which input is used. Using the single ended SYNC~ input is recommended, as this frees the differential SYNC~/TMST input pair for use in the Time Stamp function. To assert SYNC~, a logic low is applied. To deassert SYNC~ a logic high is applied.

7.3.7.2.11 Time Stamp

When configured through the TIME_STAMP_EN register setting (register 0x050, bit 5), the SYNC~ differential input (pins 22 and 23) can be used as a time-stamp input. The time-stamp feature enables the user to capture the timing of an external trigger event relative to the sampled signal. When enabled, the LSB of the 12-bit ADC digital output captures the trigger information. In effect, the 12-bit converter becomes an 11-bit converter and the LSB acts as a 1-bit converter with the same latency as the 11-bit converter. The trigger must be applied to the differential SYNC~/TMST inputs. The trigger can be asynchronous to the ADC sampling clock and is sampled at approximately the same time as the analog input.

7.3.7.2.12 Code-Group Synchronization

Code-group synchronization is achieved using the following process:

The receiver issues a synchronization request through the SYNC~ input
The transmitter issues a stream of K28.5 symbols
The receiver synchronizes and waits for correct reception of at least 4 consecutive K symbols
The receiver deactivates the synchronization request
Upon detecting that the receiver has deactivated the SYNC~ pin, the transmitter continues emitting K symbols until the next LMFC boundary (or optionally a later LMFC boundary)
On the first frame following the selected LMFC boundary the transmitters emit an initial lane-alignment sequence

The initial-lane alignment sequence transmitted by the ADC device is defined in additional detail in JESD204B section 5.3.3.5.

7.3.7.2.13 Multiple ADC Synchronization

The second function for the SYSREF input is to facilitate the precise synchronization of multiple ADCs in a system.

One key challenge is to ensure that this synchronization works is to ensure that the SYSREF inputs are repeatedly captured by the input CLK. Two key elements must occur for the SYSREF inputs to be captured. First, the SYSREF input must be created so that it is synchronous to the input DEVCLK, be an integer sub-harmonic of the multi-frame (K × t_(FRAME)) and a repeatable and fixed-phase offset. When this constraint is achieved, repeatedly capturing SYSREF is easier. To further ease this task, the SYSREF signal is routed through a user-adjustable delay which eases the timing requirements with respect to the input DEVCLK signal. The SYSREF delay RDEL is adjusted through bits 3 through 0 in register 0x032.

As long as the SYSREF signal has a fixed timing relationship to DEVCLK, the internal delay can be used to maximize the setup and hold times between the internally delayed SYSREF and the internal DEVCLK signal. These timing relationships are listed in the Timing Requirements table. To find the proper delay setting, the RDEL value is adjusted from minimum to maximum while applying SYSREF and monitoring the SysRefDet and Dirty Capture detect bits. The SysRefDet bit is set whenever a rising edge of SYSREF is detected. The Dirty Capture bit is set whenever the setup or hold time between DEVCLK and the delayed SYSREF is insufficient. The SysRefDetClr bit is used to clear the SysRefDet bit. The Clear Dirty Capture bit is used to clear that bit.

This procedure should be followed to determine the range of delay settings where a clean SYSREF capture is achieved. The delay value at the center of the clean capture range must be loaded as the final RDEL setting. Table 31 lists a summary of the control bits that are used and the monitor bits that are read.

Table 31. SYSREF Capture Control and Status

BIT NAME	REGISTER ADDRESS	REGISTER BIT	FUNCTION
RDEL	0x032	3:0	Adjust relative delay between DEVCLK and SYSREF
SysRefDet	0x031	7	Detect if a SYSREF rising edge has been captured (not self clearing)
Dirty Capture	0x031	6	Detect if SYSREF rising edge capture failed setup/hold (not self clearing)
SysRefDetClr	0x030	5	Clear SYSREF detection bit
Clear Dirty Capture	0x030	4	Clear Dirty Capture detection bit
SysRef_Rcvr_En	0x030	7	Enable SYSREF receiver. See the CLKGEN_0 descriptions in the Clock Generator Control 0 Register section for more information.
SysRef_Pr_En	0x030	6	Enable SYSREF processing. See the CLKGEN_0 descriptions in the Clock Generator Control 0 Register section for more information.

One final aspect of multi-device synchronization relates to phase alignment of the NCO phase accumulators when DDC modes are enabled. The NCO phase accumulators are reset during the ILA phase of link startup which means that for multiple ADCs to have NCO phase alignment, all links must be enabled in the same LMFC period. Enabling all links in the same LMFC period requires synchronizing the SYNC~ de-assertion across all data receivers in the system, so that all of the SYNC~ signals are released during the same LMFC period. Using large K values and resulting longer LMFC periods will ease this task, at the expense of potentially higher latency in the receiving device.

7.4 Device Functional Modes

7.4.1 DDC Bypass Mode

In DDC bypass mode (decimation = 1) the raw 12 bit data from the ADC is output at the full sampling rate.

7.4.2 DDC Modes

In the DDC modes (decimation > 1) complex (I,Q) data is output at a lower sample rate as determined by the decimation factor (4, 8, 10, 16, 20, and 32).

7.4.3 Calibration

Calibration adjusts the ADC core to optimize the following device parameters:

ADC core linearity
ADC core-to-core offset matching
ADC core-to-core full-scale range matching
ADC core 4-way interleave timing

All calibration processes occur internally. Calibration does not require any external signals to be present and works properly as long as the device is maintained within the values listed in the Recommended Operating Conditions table.

7.4.3.1 Foreground Calibration Mode

In foreground mode the calibration process interrupts normal ADC operation and no output data is available during this time (the output code is forced to a static value). The calibration process should be repeated if the device temperature changes by more than 20ºC to ensure rated performance is maintained. Foreground calibration is initiated by setting the CAL_SFT bit (register 0x050, bit 3) which is self clearing. The foreground calibration process finishes within t_(CAL) number of DEVCLK cycles. The process occurs somewhat longer when the timing calibration mode is enabled.

NOTE

Initiating a foreground calibration asynchronously resets the calibration control logic and may glitch internal device clocks. Therefore after setting the CAL_SFT bit clearing and then setting JESD_EN is necessary. If resetting the JESD204B link is undesirable for system reasons, background calibration mode may be preferred.

7.4.3.2 Background Calibration Mode

In background mode an additional ADC core is powered-up for a total of 5 ADC cores. At any given time, one core is off-line and not used for data conversion. This core is calibrated in the background and then placed on-line simultaneous with another core going off-line for calibration. This process operates continuously without interrupting data flow in the application and ensures that all cores are optimized in performance regardless of any changes of temperature. The background calibration cycle rate is fixed and is not adjustable by the user.

Because of the additional circuitry active in background calibration mode, a slight degradation in performance occurs in comparison to foreground calibration mode at a fixed temperature. As a result of this degradation, using foreground calibration mode is recommended if the expected change in operating temperature is <30°C. Using background calibration mode is recommended if the expected change in operating temperature is >30°C. The exact difference in performance is dependent on the DEVCLK (sampling clock) frequency, and the analog input signal frequency and amplitude. For this reason, device and system performance should be evaluated using both calibration modes before finalizing the choice of calibration mode.

To enable the background calibration feature, set the CAL_BCK bit (register 0x057, bit 0) and the CAL_CONT bit (register 0x057, bit 1). The value written to the register 0x057 to enable background calibration is therefore 0x013h. After writing this value to register 0x057, set the CAL_SFT bit in register 0x050 to perform the one-time foreground calibration to begin the process.

NOTE

The ADC offset-adjust feature has no effect when background calibration mode is enabled.

7.4.4 Timing Calibration Mode

The timing calibration process optimizes the matching of sample timing for the 4 internally interleaved converters. This process minimize the presence of any timing related interleaving spurs in the captured spectrum. The timing calibration feature is disabled by default, but using this feature is highly recommended. To enable timing calibration, set the T_AUTO bit (register 0x066, bit 0). When this bit is set, the timing calibration performs each time the CAL_SFT bit is set.

7.4.5 Test-Pattern Modes

A number of device test modes are available. These modes insert known patterns of information into the device data path for assistance with system debug, development, or characterization.

7.4.5.1 ADC Test-Pattern Mode

The 12-bit ADC core has a built-in test-pattern generator. This mode is helpful for verifying the full data link from the ADC to the data receiver when in DDC bypass mode. When the test-pattern mode is enabled, the ADC output data is replaced by a pattern that repeats every two frames. The data sequence is is shown in Table 33 (shown for default settings with foreground calibration mode).

Table 33. ADC Test Pattern⁽¹⁾

LANE (CONVERTER ID)	SAMPLE NUMBER (SID)
	0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9

7	0x400	0xBFF	0x400	0xBFF	0x400	0xBFF	0x400	0xBFF	0x400	0xBFF

(1) When background-calibration mode is enabled, the pattern values are dynamic because the internal converter banks are output on different lanes during the calibration bank-switching process. Each converter bank has dedicated pattern values as listed in Table 34.

BANK	LOCATION	LOW VALUE	HIGH VALUE

7.4.5.2 Serializer Test-Mode Details

Test modes are enabled by setting the appropriate configuration of the JESD204B_TEST setting (Register 0x202, Bits 3:0). Each test mode is described in detail in the following sections. Regardless of the test mode, the serializer outputs are powered up based on the configuration decimation and DDR settings. The test modes should only be enabled while the JESD204B link is disabled.

Figure 66. Test-Mode Insertion Points

7.4.5.3 PRBS Test Modes

The PRBS test modes bypass the 8B10B encoder. These test modes produce pseudo-random bit streams that comply with the ITU-T O.150 specification. These bit streams are used with lab test equipment that can self-synchronize to the bit pattern and therefore the initial phase of the pattern is not defined.

The sequences are defined by a recursive equation. For example, the PRBS7 sequence is defined as shown in Equation 9.

Equation 9. y[n] = y[n – 6]^{y[n – 7]}

where

Bit n is the XOR of bit [n – 6] and bit [n – 7] which are previously transmitted bits

Table 35. PBRS Mode Equations

PRBS TEST MODE	SEQUENCE	SEQUENCE LENGTH (bits)
PRBS7	y[n] = y[n – 6]^{y[n – 7]}	127
PRBS15	y[n] = y[n – 14]^{y[n – 15]}	32767
PRBS23	y[n] = y[n – 18]^{y[n – 23]}	8388607

The initial phase of the pattern is unique for each lane.

7.4.5.4 Ramp Test Mode

In the ramp test mode, the JESD204B link layer operates normally, but the transport layer is disabled and the input from the formatter is ignored. After the ILA sequence, each lane transmits an identical octet stream that increments from 0x00 to 0xFF and repeats.

7.4.5.5 Short and Long-Transport Test Mode

The short-transport test mode is available when the device is operated in DDC bypass mode (decimation = 1). The short transport pattern has a length of one frame. Table 36 lists the formula followed by each sample of the pattern.

Table 36. Short Transport Test Pattern Definition

BIT
11	10	9	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1	0
~LID				LID				SID+1

LID is the lane ID (0 to 7) and SID is the sample number within the frame (0 to 4). The entire pattern has a length of one frame and is listed in Table 37.

Table 37. Short Transport Test Pattern

LANE (CONVERTER ID)	SAMPLE NUMBER (SID)
	0	1	2	3	4
0	0xF01	0xF02	0xF03	0xF04	0xF05
1	0xE11	0xE12	0xE13	0xE14	0xE15
2	0xD21	0xD22	0xD23	0xD24	0xD25

7	0x871	0x872	0x873	0x874	0x875

The long-transport test mode is available in all DDC modes (decimation > 1). Patterns are generated in accordance with the JESD204B standard and are different for each output format.

Table 38 lists one example of the long transport test pattern:

If multiple devices are all programmed to the transport layer test mode (while JESD_EN = 0), then JESD_EN is set to 1, and then SYSREF is used to align the LMFC of the devices, the patterns will be aligned to the SYSREF event (within the skew budget of JESD204B). For more details see JESD204B, section 5.1.6.3.

7.4.5.6 D21.5 Test Mode

In this test mode, the controller transmits a continuous stream of D21.5 characters (alternating 0s and 1s).

7.4.5.7 K28.5 Test Mode

In this test mode, the controller transmits a continuous stream of K28.5 characters.

7.4.5.8 Repeated ILA Test Mode

In this test mode, the JESD204B link layer operates normally with one exception: when the ILA sequence completes, the sequence repeats indefinitely. Whenever the receiver issues a synchronization request, the transmitter will initiate code group synchronization. Upon completion of code group synchronization, the transmitter will repeatedly transmit the ILA sequence. If there is no active code group synchronization request at the moment the transmitter enters the test mode, the transmitter will behave as if it received one.

7.4.5.9 Modified RPAT Test Mode

A 12-octet repeating pattern is defined in INCITS TR-35-2004. The purpose of this pattern is to generate white spectral content for JESD204B compliance and jitter testing. Table 39 lists the pattern before and after 8b10b encoding.

7.5 Programming

7.5.1 Using the Serial Interface

The serial interface is accessed using the following four pins: serial clock (SCLK), serial-data in (SDI), serial-data out (SDO), and serial-interface chip-select (SCS). Registers access is enabled through the SCS pin.

SCS

This signal must be asserted low to access a register through the serial interface. Setup and hold times with respect to the SCLK must be observed.

SCLK

Serial data input is accepted at the rising edge of this signal. SCLK has no minimum frequency requirement.

SDI

Each register access requires a specific 24-bit pattern at this input. This pattern consists of a read-and-write (R/W) bit, register address, and register value. The data is shifted in MSB first. Setup and hold times with respect to the SCLK must be observed (see Figure 2).

SDO

The SDO signal provides the output data requested by a read command. This output is high impedance during write bus cycles and during the read bit and register address portion of read bus cycles.

Each register access consists of 24 bits, as shown in Figure 2. The first bit is high for a read and low for a write.

The next 15 bits are the address of the register that is to be written to. During write operations, the last 8 bits are the data written to the addressed register. During read operations, the last 8 bits on SDI are ignored, and, during this time, the SDO outputs the data from the addressed register. The serial protocol details are illustrated in Figure 67.

ADC12J1600 ADC12J2700 serial_protocol_standard_slas989.gif

Figure 67. Serial Interface Protocol - Single Read / Write

7.5.1.1 Streaming Mode

The serial interface supports streaming reads and writes. In this mode, the initial 24 bits of the transaction specifics the access type, register address, and data value as normal. Additional clock cycles of write or read data are immediately transferred, as long as the SCS input is maintained in the asserted (logic low) state. The register address auto increments (default) or decrements for each subsequent 8 bit transfer of the streaming transaction. The ADDR_ASC bit (register 000h, bits 5 and 2) controls whether the address value ascends (increments) or descends (decrements). Streaming mode can be disabled by setting the ADDR_STATIC bit (register 010h, bit 0). The streaming mode transaction details are shown in Figure 68.

ADC12J1600 ADC12J2700 serial_protocol_streaming_slas989.gif

Figure 68. Serial Interface Protocol - Streaming Read / Write

See the Register Map section for detailed information regarding the registers.

NOTE

The serial interface must not be accessed during calibration of the ADC. Accessing the serial interface during this time impairs the performance of the device until the device is calibrated correctly. Writing or reading the serial registers also reduces dynamic performance of the ADC for the duration of the register access time.

7.6 Register Map

Several groups of registers provide control and configuration options for this device. Each following register description also shows the power-on reset (POR) state of each control bit.

NOTE

All multi-byte registers are arranged in little-endian format (the least-significant byte is stored at the lowest address) unless explicitly stated otherwise.

15-0	NCO_RDIV	R/W	0x0000h	Sometimes the 32-bit NCO frequency word does not provide the desired frequency step size and can only approximate the desired frequency. This results in a frequency error. Use this register to eliminate the frequency error. Use this equation to compute the proper value to program: Equation 10. NCO_RDIV = ƒ_S / ƒ_(STEP) / 128 where ƒ_S is the ADC sample rate ƒ_(STEP) is the desired NCO frequency step size For example, if ƒ_S= 3072 MHz, and ƒ_(STEP)= 10 KHz then: Equation 11. NCO_RDIV = 3072 MHz / 10 KHz / 128 = 2400 Any combination of ƒ_S and ƒ_(STEP) that results in a fractional value for NCO_RDIV is not supported. Values of NCO_RDIV larger than 8192 can degrade the NCO’s SFDR performance and are not recommended. This register is used for all configuration presets.

31-0	NCO_FREQ_x	R/W	0xC0000000h	Changing this register after the JESD204B interface is running results in non-deterministic NCO phase. If deterministic phase is required, the JESD204B interface must be re-initialized after changing this register. The NCO frequency (ƒ_(NCO)) is: Equation 12. ƒ_(NCO) = NCO_FREQ_x × 2^–32 × ƒ_S where ƒ_S is the sampling frequency of the ADC NCO_FREQ_x is the integer value of this register This register can be interpreted as signed or unsigned. Use this equation to determine the value to program: Equation 13. NCO_FREQ_x = 2³² × ƒ_(NCO) / ƒ_S If the equation does not result in an integer value, you must choose an alternate frequency step (ƒ_(STEP)) and program the NCO_RDIV register. Then use one of the following equations to compute NCO_FREQ_x: Equation 14. NCO_FREQ_x = round(2³² × ƒ_(NCO) / ƒ_S) Equation 15. NCO_FREQ_x = round(2²⁵ × ƒ_(NCO) / ƒ_(STEP) / NCO_RDIV)

7-0	DDC_DLY_x	R/W	0xFFh	DDC delay for configuration preset 0 This register provides fine adjustments to the DDC group delay. The step size is one half of an ADC sample period (t_(DEVCLK) / 2). This is equivalent to Equation 17. Equation 17. t_O / (2 × D) where t_O is the DDC output sample period D is the decimation factor The legal range for this register is 0 to 2D-1. Illegal values result in undefined behavior. Example: When D = 8, the legal register range is 0 to 15. The step size is t_O / 16 and the maximum delay is 15 × t_O / 16. Programming this register to 0xFF (the default value) powers down and bypasses the fractional delay filter which reduces the DDC latency by 34 ADC sample periods (as compared to the 0 setting).
