8.3.4.4 Numerically Controlled Oscillator (NCO) and Digital Mixer

The decimation block is equipped with a 32-bit NCO and a digital mixer to fine tune the frequency placement prior to the digital filtering. The oscillator generates a complex exponential sequence of:

Equation 1. ejωn (default) or e–jωn

where: frequency (ω) is specified as a signed number by the 32-bit register setting

The complex exponential sequence is multiplied with the real input from the ADC to mix the desired carrier to a frequency equal to fIN + fNCO. The NCO frequency can be tuned from –FS/2 to +FS/2 and is processed as a signed, 2s complement number. After programming a new NCO frequency, the MIXER RESTART register bit or SYNC pin has to be toggled for the new frequency to get active. Additionally the ADC356x provides the option via SPI to invert the mixer phase.

The NCO frequency setting is set by the 32-bit register value given and calculated as:

NCO frequency = 0 to + FS/2: NCO = fNCO × 232 / FS

NCO frequency = -FS/2 to 0: NCO = (fNCO + FS) × 232 / FS

where:

  • NCO = NCO register setting (decimal value)
  • fNCO = Desired NCO frequency (MHz)
  • FS = ADC sampling rate (MSPS)

The NCO programming is further illustrated with this example:

  • ADC sampling rate FS = 65 MSPS
  • Input signal fIN = 10 MHz
  • Desired output frequency fOUT = 0 MHz

For this example there are actually four ways to program the NCO and achieve the desired output frequency as shown in Table 8-2.
