The AD9629 operates from a single 1.8 V analog power
supply and features a separate digital output driver supply
to accommodate 1.8 V to 3.3 V logic families.
The sample-and-hold circuit maintains excellent
performance for input frequencies up to 200 MHz and is
designed for low cost, low power, and ease of use.
A standard serial port interface (SPI) supports various
product features and functions, such as data output formatting, internal clock divider, power-down, DCO and data
output (D11 to D0) timing and offset adjustments, and
voltage reference modes.
The AD9629 is packaged in a 32-lead RoHS compliant
LFCSP that is pin compatible with the AD9609 10-bit ADC
and the AD9649 14-bit ADC, enabling a simple migration
path between 10-bit and 14-bit converters sampling from
20 MSPS to 80 MSPS.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
deterministic and pseudorandom patterns, along with custom
user-defined test patterns entered via the serial port interface (SPI).
The AD9629 is a monolithic, single channel 1.8 V supply, 12-bit,
20 MSPS/40 MSPS/65 MSPS/80 MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It features a high performance sample-and-hold
circuit and on-chip voltage reference.
A differential clock input with optional 1, 2, or 4 divide ratios
controls all internal conversion cycles.
The product uses multistage differential pipeline architecture
with output error correction logic to provide 12-bit accuracy at
80 MSPS data rates and to guarantee no missing codes over the
full operating temperature range.
The digital output data is presented in offset binary, gray code,
or twos complement format. A data output clock (DCO) is
provided to ensure proper latch timing with receiving logic. Both
1.8 V and 3.3 V CMOS levels are supported.
The ADC contains several features designed to maximize
flexibility and minimize system cost, such as programmable
clock and data alignment and programmable digital test pattern
generation. The available digital test patterns include built-in
The AD9629 is available in a 32-lead RoHS compliant LFCSP
and is specified over the industrial temperature range (−40°C
to +85°C).

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

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

AD9629
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9629 architecture consists of a multistage, pipelined ADC.
Each stage provides sufficient overlap to correct for flash errors in
the preceding stage. The quantized outputs from each stage are
combined into a final 12-bit result in the digital correction logic.
The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to operate with a
new input sample while the remaining stages operate with preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of the clock.
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched-capacitor DAC
and an interstage residue amplifier (for example, a multiplying
digital-to-analog converter (MDAC)). The residue amplifier
magnifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output
and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. One bit of
redundancy is used in each stage to facilitate digital correction
of flash errors. The last stage consists of a flash ADC.
The output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and
passes the data to the CMOS output buffers. The output buffers
are powered from a separate (DRVDD) supply, allowing adjustment of the output voltage swing. During power-down, the output
buffers go into a high impedance state.
high IF frequencies. Either a shunt capacitor or two single-ended
capacitors can be placed on the inputs to provide a matching
passive network. This ultimately creates a low-pass filter at the
input to limit unwanted broadband noise. See the AN-742
Application Note, the AN-827 Application Note, and the Analog
Dialogue article “Transformer-Coupled Front-End for Wideband
A/D Converters” (Volume 39, April 2005) for more information.
In general, the precise values depend on the application.
Input Common Mode
The analog inputs of the AD9629 are not internally dc-biased.
Therefore, in ac-coupled applications, the user must provide a
dc bias externally. Setting the device so that VCM = AVDD/2
is recommended for optimum performance, but the device can
function over a wider range with reasonable performance, as
shown in Figure 35 and Figure 36.
An on-board, common-mode voltage reference is included in
the design and is available from the VCM pin. The VCM pin
must be decoupled to ground by a 0.1 μF capacitor, as described
in the Applications Information section.

ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS

SNR/SFDR (dBFS/dBc)
The analog input to the AD9629 is a differential switchedcapacitor circuit designed for processing differential input
signals. This circuit can support a wide common-mode range
while maintaining excellent performance. By using an input
common-mode voltage of midsupply, users can minimize
signal-dependent errors and achieve optimum performance.

SFDR (dBc)
The clock signal alternately switches the input circuit between
sample-and-hold mode (see Figure 34). When the input circuit
is switched to sample mode, the signal source must be capable
of charging the sample capacitors and settling within one-half
of a clock cycle. A small resistor in series with each input can
help reduce the peak transient current injected from the output
stage of the driving source. In addition, low Q inductors or ferrite
beads can be placed on each leg of the input to reduce high differential capacitance at the analog inputs and, therefore, achieve
the maximum bandwidth of the ADC. Such use of low Q inductors
or ferrite beads is required when driving the converter front end at

Differential Input Configurations
~10 MHz where SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun
coupling is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 40).
Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9629 in a
differential input configuration. For baseband applications, the
AD8138, ADA4937-2, and ADA4938-2 differential drivers provide
excellent performance and a flexible interface to the ADC.
An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at frequencies
in the second Nyquist zone is to use the AD8352 differential driver.
An example is shown in Figure 41. See the AD8352 data sheet
for more information.
The output common-mode voltage of the ADA4938-2 is easily
set with the VCM pin of the AD9629 (see Figure 37), and the
driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to
provide band limiting of the input signal.

Figure 37. Differential Input Configuration Using the ADA4938-2
For baseband applications below ~10 MHz where SNR is a key
parameter, differential transformer-coupling is the recommended
input configuration. An example is shown in Figure 38. To bias
the analog input, the VCM voltage can be connected to the
center tap of the secondary winding of the transformer.
A single-ended input can provide adequate performance in
cost-sensitive applications. In this configuration, SFDR and
distortion performance degrade due to the large input commonmode swing. If the source impedances on each input are matched,
there should be little effect on SNR performance. Figure 39
shows a typical single-ended input configuration.

The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can
also cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.

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

VOLTAGE REFERENCE
External Reference Operation
A stable and accurate 1.0 V voltage reference is built into the
AD9629. The VREF can be configured using either the internal
1.0 V reference or an externally applied 1.0 V reference voltage.
The various reference modes are summarized in the sections
that follow. The Reference Decoupling section describes the
best practices PCB layout of the reference.
The use of an external reference may be necessary to enhance
the gain accuracy of the ADC or improve thermal drift characteristics. Figure 44 shows the typical drift characteristics of the
internal reference in 1.0 V mode.

A comparator within the AD9629 detects the potential at the
SENSE pin and configures the reference into two possible modes,
which are summarized in Table 10. If SENSE is grounded, the
reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal resistor
divider (see Figure 42), setting VREF to 1.0 V.

When the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD, the internal reference is
disabled, allowing the use of an external reference. An internal
reference buffer loads the external reference with an equivalent
7.5 kΩ load (see Figure 27). The internal buffer generates the
positive and negative full-scale references for the ADC core.
Therefore, the external reference must be limited to a maximum
of 1.0 V.

CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
For optimum performance, clock the AD9629 sample clock
inputs, CLK+ and CLK−, with a differential signal. The signal
is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins via a
transformer or capacitors. These pins are biased internally (see
Figure 45) and require no external bias.
AVDD
0.9V
If a low jitter clock source is not available, another option is to
ac couple a differential PECL signal to the sample clock input
pins, as shown in Figure 48. The AD9510/AD9511/AD9512/
AD9513/AD9514/AD9515/AD9516-4/AD9517-4 clock drivers

Figure 46 and Figure 47 show two preferred methods for clocking the AD9629. The CLK inputs support up to 4× the rated
sample rate when using the internal clock divider feature. A low
jitter clock source is converted from a single-ended signal to a
differential signal using either an RF transformer or an RF balun.
A third option is to ac couple a differential LVDS signal to the
sample clock input pins, as shown in Figure 49. The AD9510/
AD9511/AD9512/AD9513/AD9514/AD9515/AD9516-4/

Clock Duty Cycle
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate
a variety of internal timing signals and, as a result, may be
sensitive to clock duty cycle. Commonly, a 50% duty cycle clock
with ±5% tolerance is required to maintain optimum dynamic
performance as shown in Figure 51.
Jitter on the rising edge of the clock input can also impact dynamic
performance and should be minimized as discussed in the Jitter
Considerations section.

For more information, see the AN-501 Application Note and the
AN-756 Application Note available on www.analog.com.
POWER DISSIPATION AND STANDBY MODE
75
As shown in Figure 53, the analog core power dissipated by
the AD9629 is proportional to its sample rate. The digital
power dissipation of the CMOS outputs are determined
primarily by the strength of the digital drivers and the load
on each output bit.

AD9629).

Jitter Considerations
High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality
of the clock input. The degradation in SNR from the low frequency SNR (SNRLF) at a given input frequency (fINPUT) due to
jitter (tJRMS) can be calculated by
SNRHF = −10 log[(2π × fINPUT × tJRMS)2 + 10 ( SNRLF /10) ]
In the previous equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the
clock input jitter specification. IF undersampling applications
are particularly sensitive to jitter, as illustrated in Figure 52.
This maximum current occurs when every output bit switches
on every clock cycle, that is, a full-scale square wave at the Nyquist
frequency of fCLK/2. In practice, the DRVDD current is established by the average number of output bits switching, which
is determined by the sample rate and the characteristics of the
analog input signal.
Reducing the capacitive load presented to the output drivers
can minimize digital power consumption. The data in Figure 53
was taken using the same operating conditions as those used for
the Typical Performance Characteristics, with a 5 pF load on
each output driver.

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases in
which aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9629.
To avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise, keep
power supplies for clock drivers separate from the ADC output
driver supplies. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators make
the best clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type
of source (by gating, dividing, or another method), it should be
retimed by the original clock at the last step.

AD9629
Data Sheet
In SPI mode, the AD9629 can be placed in power-down mode
directly via the SPI port, or by using the programmable external
MODE pin. In non-SPI mode, power-down is achieved by
asserting the PDWN pin high. In this state, the ADC typically
dissipates 500 µW. During power-down, the output drivers are
placed in a high impedance state. Asserting PDWN low (or the
MODE pin in SPI mode) returns the AD9629 to its normal
operating mode. Note that PDWN is referenced to the digital
output driver supply (DRVDD) and should not exceed that
supply voltage.
As detailed in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High
Speed ADCs via SPI, the data format can be selected for offset
binary, twos complement, or gray code when using the SPI control.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,
and clock. Internal capacitors are discharged when entering powerdown mode and then must be recharged when returning to normal
operation. As a result, wake-up time is related to the time spent
in power-down mode, and shorter power-down cycles result in
proportionally shorter wake-up times.
Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC
in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode allows
the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when
faster wake-up times are required. See the Memory Map section
for more details.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The AD9629 output drivers can be configured to interface with
1.8 V to 3.3 V CMOS logic families. Output data can also be
multiplexed onto a single output bus to reduce the total number
of traces required.
The CMOS output drivers are sized to provide sufficient output
current to drive a wide variety of logic families. However, large
drive currents tend to cause current glitches on the supplies and
may affect converter performance.
Applications requiring the ADC to drive large capacitive loads
or large fanouts may require external buffers or latches.
The output data format can be selected to be either offset binary
or twos complement by setting the SCLK/DFS pin when operating
in the external pin mode (see Table 11).

Outputs disabled
When using the SPI interface, the data outputs and DCO can be
independently three-stated by using the programmable external
MODE pin. The MODE pin (OEB) function is enabled via
Bits[6:5] of Register 0x08.
If the MODE pin is configured to operate in traditional OEB
mode and the OEB pin is low, the output data drivers and
DCOs are enabled. If the OEB pin is high, the output data
drivers and DCOs are placed in a high impedance state. This
OEB function is not intended for rapid access to the data bus.
Note that OEB is referenced to the digital output driver supply
(DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply voltage.
TIMING
The AD9629 provides latched data with a pipeline delay of
9 clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation
delay (tPD) after the rising edge of the clock signal.
Minimize the length of the output data lines and loads placed
on them to reduce transients within the AD9629. These
transients can degrade converter dynamic performance.
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9629 is 3 MSPS. At
clock rates below 3 MSPS, dynamic performance can degrade.
Data Clock Output (DCO)
The AD9629 provides a data clock output (DCO) signal
intended for capturing the data in an external register. The CMOS
data outputs are valid on the rising edge of DCO, unless the DCO
clock polarity has been changed via the SPI. See Figure 2 for a
graphical timing description.

AD9629
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST) AND OUTPUT TEST
The AD9629 includes a built-in self-test feature designed to
enable verification of the integrity of each channel as well as to
facilitate board level debugging. A built-in self-test (BIST) feature
that verifies the integrity of the digital datapath of the AD9629
is included. Various output test options are also provided to place
predictable values on the outputs of the AD9629.
BUILT-IN SELF-TEST (BIST)
generator, Bit 2 (BIST INIT) of Register 0x0E. At the completion
of the BIST, Bit 0 of Register 0x24 is automatically cleared. The PN
sequence can be continued from its last value by writing a 0 in
Bit 2 of Register 0x0E. However, if the PN sequence is not reset,
the signature calculation does not equal the predetermined
value at the end of the test. At that point, the user needs to rely
on verifying the output data.
OUTPUT TEST MODES
The BIST is a thorough test of the digital portion of the selected
AD9629 signal path. Perform the BIST test after a reset to ensure
the part is in a known state. During BIST, data from an internal
pseudorandom noise (PN) source is driven through the digital
datapath of both channels, starting at the ADC block output.
At the datapath output, CRC logic calculates a signature from
the data. The BIST sequence runs for 512 cycles and then stops.
Once completed, the BIST compares the signature results with a
predetermined value. If the signatures match, the BIST sets Bit 0
of Register 0x24, signifying the test passed. If the BIST test failed,
Bit 0 of Register 0x24 is cleared. The outputs are connected
during this test, so the PN sequence can be observed as it runs.
Writing 0x05 to Register 0x0E runs the BIST. This enables the Bit 0
(BIST enable) of Register 0x0E and resets the PN sequence
The output test options are described in Table 16 at Address
0x0D. When an output test mode is enabled, the analog section
of the ADC is disconnected from the digital back-end blocks
and the test pattern is run through the output formatting block.
Some of the test patterns are subject to output formatting, and
some are not. The PN generators from the PN sequence tests
can be reset by setting Bit 4 or Bit 5 of Register 0x0D. These
tests can be performed with or without an analog signal (if
present, the analog signal is ignored), but they do require an
encode clock. For more information, see the AN-877
Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.

AD9629
Data Sheet
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9629 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to configure
the converter for specific functions or operations through a
structured register space provided inside the ADC. The SPI
gives the user added flexibility and customization, depending
on the application. Addresses are accessed via the serial port
and can be written to or read from via the port. Memory is
organized into bytes that can be further divided into fields,
which are documented in the Memory Map section. For
detailed operational information, see the AN-877 Application
Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
The falling edge of CSB, in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK, determines the start of the framing. An example of the
serial timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 54 and
Table 5.
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase, and its length is determined
by the W0 and W1 bits as shown in Figure 54.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be
held low indefinitely, which permanently enables the device;
this is called streaming. The CSB can stall high between bytes to
allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high, SPI
functions are placed in high impedance mode. This mode turns
on any SPI pin secondary functions.
Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK, the SDIO,
and the CSB (see Table 13). The SCLK (a serial clock) is used
to synchronize the read and write data presented from and to
the ADC. The SDIO (serial data input/output) is a dual-purpose
pin that allows data to be sent and read from the internal ADC
memory map registers. The CSB (chip select bar) is an activelow control that enables or disables the read and write cycles.
All data is composed of 8-bit words. The first bit of the first byte in
a multibyte serial data transfer frame indicates whether a read
command or a write command is issued. This allows the serial
data input/output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input
to an output at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines
whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing
the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to read
the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/
output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an output
at the appropriate point in the serial frame.

HARDWARE INTERFACE
CONFIGURATION WITHOUT THE SPI
The pins described in Table 13 constitute the physical interface
between the programming device of the user and the serial
port of the AD9629. The SCLK pin and the CSB pin function
as inputs when using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is
bidirectional, functioning as an input during write phases
and as an output during readback.
In applications that do not interface to the SPI control registers,
the SDIO/PDWN pin, the SCLK/DFS pin serve as standalone
CMOS-compatible control pins. When the device is powered up, it
is assumed that the user intends to use the pins as static control
lines for the power-down and output data format feature control.
In this mode, connect the CSB chip select to DRVDD, which
disables the serial port interface.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by
either FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI
configuration is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note, Microcontroller-Based Serial Port Interface
(SPI) Boot Circuit.
Table 14. Mode Selection
Pin
SDIO/PDWN
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK signal, the CSB signal, and the SDIO signal are typically
asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can
degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for
other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between
this bus and the AD9629 to prevent these signals from transitioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.
SDIO/PDWN and SCLK/DFS serve a dual function when the
SPI interface is not being used. When the pins are strapped to
DRVDD or ground during device power-on, they are associated
with a specific function. The Digital Outputs section describes
the strappable functions supported on the AD9629.

MEMORY MAP
READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE
DEFAULT VALUES
Each row in the memory map register table (see Table 16)
contains eight bit locations. The memory map is roughly
divided into four sections: the chip configuration registers
(Address 0x00 to Address 0x02); the device transfer register
(Address 0xFF); the program registers, including setup, control,
and test (Address 0x08 to Address 0x2A); and the AD9629
specific customer SPI control register (Address 0x101).
After the AD9629 is reset, critical registers are loaded with
default values. The default values for the registers are given in the
memory map register table (see Table 16).
Table 16 documents the default hexadecimal value for each
hexadecimal address shown. The column with the heading Bit 7
(MSB) is the start of the default hexadecimal value given. For
example, Address 0x2A, the OR/MODE select register, has a hexadecimal default value of 0x01. This means that in Address 0x2A,
Bits[7:1] = 0, and Bit 0 = 1. This setting is the default OR/MODE
setting. The default value results in the programmable external
MODE/OR pin (Pin 23) functioning as an out-of-range digital
output. For more information on this function and others, see the
AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
This application note details the functions controlled by Register
0x00 to Register 0xFF. The remaining register, Register 0x101, is
documented in the Memory Map section that follows Table 16.
Logic Levels
An explanation of logic level terminology follows:
•
•
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.”
“Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.”
Transfer Register Map
Address 0x08 to Address 0x18 are shadowed. Writes to these
addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer command
is issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the transfer bit.
This allows these registers to be updated internally and simultaneously when the transfer bit is set. The internal update takes
place when the transfer bit is set, and then the bit autoclears.
OPEN LOCATIONS
All address and bit locations that are not included in the SPI map
are not currently supported for this device. Unused bits of a valid
address location should be written with 0s. Writing to these locations is required only when part of an address location is open
(for example, Address 0x2A). If the entire address location is
open, it is omitted from the SPI map (for example, Address 0x13)
and should not be written.
