•
•
The ADC322x are a high-linearity, ultra-low power,
dual-channel, 12-bit, 25-MSPS to 125-MSPS, analogto-digital converter (ADC) family. The devices
are designed specifically to support demanding,
high input frequency signals with large dynamic
range requirements. An input clock divider allows
more flexibility for system clock architecture design
and the SYSREF input enables complete system
synchronization. The ADC322x family supports serial
low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) in order to
reduce the number of interface lines, thus allowing
for high system integration density. The serial LVDS
interface is two-wire, where each ADC data are
serialized and output over two LVDS pairs. Optionally,
a one-wire serial LVDS interface is available. An
internal phase-locked loop (PLL) multiplies the
incoming ADC sampling clock to derive the bit clock
that is used to serialize the 12-bit output data from
each channel. In addition to the serial data streams,
the frame and bit clocks are also transmitted as LVDS
outputs.

Timing parameters are specified by design and characterization and are not tested in production.
CLOAD is the effective external single-ended load capacitance between each output pin and ground.
RLOAD is the differential load resistance between the LVDS output pair.
Measurements are done with a transmission line of a 100-Ω characteristic impedance between the device and load. Setup and hold
time specifications take into account the effect of jitter on the output data and clock.
Data valid refers to a logic high of 100 mV and a logic low of –100 mV.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The devices are designed specifically to support demanding, high input frequency signals with large dynamic
range requirements. An input clock divider allows more flexibility for system clock architecture design while the
SYSREF input enables complete system synchronization by resetting the clock divider. The ADC322x family
supports serial LVDS interface in order to reduce the number of interface lines, thus allowing for high system
integration density. The serial LVDS interface is two-wire, where each ADC data are serialized and output over
two LVDS pairs. An internal phase-locked loop (PLL) multiplies the incoming ADC sampling clock to derive the
bit clock that is used to serialize the 14-bit output data from each channel. In addition to the serial data streams,
the frame and bit clocks are also transmitted as LVDS outputs.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Analog Inputs
The ADC322x analog signal inputs are designed to be driven differentially. Each input pin (INP, INM) must swing
symmetrically between (VCM + 0.5 V) and (VCM – 0.5 V), resulting in a 2-VPP (default) differential input swing.
The input sampling circuit has a 3-dB bandwidth that extends up to 540 MHz (50-Ω source driving a 50-Ω
termination between INP and INM).
8.3.2 Clock Input
The device clock inputs can be driven differentially (sine, LVPECL, or LVDS) or single-ended (LVCMOS), with
little or no difference in performance between them. The common-mode voltage of the clock inputs is set to
0.95 V using internal 5-kΩ resistors. The self-bias clock inputs of the ADC322x can be driven by the transformercoupled, sine-wave clock source or by the ac-coupled, LVPECL and LVDS clock sources, as shown in Figure
8-1, Figure 8-2, and Figure 8-3. See Figure 8-4 for details regarding the internal clock buffer.

A single-ended CMOS clock can be ac-coupled to the CLKP input, with CLKM connected to ground with a
0.1-μF capacitor, as shown in Figure 8-5. However, for best performance the clock inputs must be driven
differentially, thereby reducing susceptibility to common-mode noise. For high input frequency sampling, TI
recommends using a clock source with very low jitter. Band-pass filtering of the clock source can help reduce the
effects of jitter. There is no change in performance with a non-50% duty cycle clock input.

8.3.2.1 Using the SYSREF Input
The ADC344x has a SYSREF input pin that can be used when the clock-divider feature is used. A logic
low-to-high transition on the SYSREF pin aligns the falling edge of the divided clock with the next falling edge
of the input clock, essentially resetting the phase of the divided clock, as shown in Figure 8-6. When multiple
ADC344x devices are onboard and the clock divider option is used, the phase of the divided clock among
the devices may not be the same. The phase of the divided clock in each device can be synchronized to the
common sampling clock by using the SYSREF pins. SYSREF can applied as mono-shot or periodic waveform.
When applied as periodic waveform, its period must be integer multiple of period of the divided clock. When not
used, the SYSREFP and SYSREFM pins can be connected to AVDD and GND, respectively. Alternatively, the
SYSREF buffer inside the device can be powered down using the PDN SYSREF register bit.

8.3.2.2 SNR and Clock Jitter
The signal-to-noise ratio of the ADC is limited by three different factors, as shown in Equation 1. Quantization
noise (typically 74 dB for a 12-bit ADC) and thermal noise limit SNR at low input frequencies, and clock jitter sets
SNR for higher input frequencies.

External clock jitter can be minimized by using high-quality clock sources and jitter cleaners as well as bandpass filters at the clock input and a faster clock slew rate improves ADC aperture jitter. The devices have a
typical thermal noise of 73.5 dBFS and an internal aperture jitter of 130 fs. The SNR, depending on the amount
of external jitter for different input frequencies. Figure 8-7 shows SNR (from 1 MHz offset leaving the 1/f flicker

8.3.3 Digital Output Interface
The devices offer two different output format options, thus making interfacing to a field-programmable gate array
(FPGA) or an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) easy. Each option can be easily programmed using
the serial interface, as shown in Table 8-1. The output interface options are:
•
•
One-wire, 1X frame clock, 12X serialization with the DDR bit clock and
Two-wire, 1X frame clock, 6X serialization with the DDR bit clock.

8.3.3.1 One-Wire Interface: 12X Serialization
In this interface option, the device outputs the data of each ADC serially on a single LVDS pair (one-wire). The
data are available at the rising and falling edges of the bit clock (DDR bit clock). The ADC outputs a new word
at the rising edge of every frame clock, starting with the MSB. The data rate is a 12X sample frequency (12X
serialization).

The two-wire interface is recommended for sampling frequencies above 65 MSPS. The output data rate is a 6X
sample frequency because six data bits are output every clock cycle on each differential pair. Each ADC sample
is sent over the two wires with the six MSBs on Dx1P, Dx1M and the six LSBs on Dx0P, Dx0M, as shown in
Figure 8-8.

8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Input Clock Divider
The devices are equipped with an internal divider on the clock input. The clock divider allows operation with a
faster input clock, thus simplifying the system clock distribution design. The clock divider can be bypassed for
operation with a 125-MHz clock; the divide-by-2 option supports a maximum input clock of 250 MHz and the
divide-by-4 option provides a maximum input clock frequency of 500 MHz.

The devices are equipped with an internal chopper front-end. Enabling the chopper function swaps the ADC
noise spectrum by shifting the 1/f noise from dc to fS / 2. Figure 8-9 shows the noise spectrum with the
chopper off and Figure 8-10 shows the noise spectrum with the chopper on. This function is especially useful in
applications requiring good ac performance at low input frequencies or in dc-coupled applications. The chopper
can be enabled via SPI register writes and is recommended for input frequencies below 30 MHz. The chopper
function creates a spur at fS / 2 that must be filtered out digitally.

8.4.3 Power-Down Control
The power-down functions of the ADC322x can be controlled either through the parallel control pin (PDN) or
through an SPI register setting (see register 15h). The PDN pin can also be configured via the SPI to a global
power-down or standby functionality, as shown in Table 8-2.

8.4.3.1 Improving Wake-Up Time From Global Power-Down
The device has an internal low-pass filter in the sampling clock path. This low-pass filter helps improve the
aperture jitter of the device. However, in applications where input frequencies are < 200 MHz, noise from the
aperture jitter does not dominate the overall SNR of the device. In such applications, the wake-up time from a
global power-down can be reduced by bypassing the low-pass filter using the DIS CLK FILT register bit (write
80h to register address 70Ah). As shown in Table 8-3, setting the DIS CLK FILT bit improves the wake-up time
from a global power-down from 85 µs to 55 µs.

The ADC322x use an internal dither algorithm to achieve high SFDR and a clean spectrum. However, the
dither algorithm marginally degrades SNR, creating a trade-off between SNR and SFDR. If desired, the dither
algorithm can be turned off by using the DIS DITH CHx registers bits. Figure 8-11 and Figure 8-12 show the
effect of using dither algorithms.

8.5 Programming
The ADC322x can be configured using a serial programming interface, as described in this section.
8.5.1 Serial Interface
The device has a set of internal registers that can be accessed by the serial interface formed by the SEN (serial
interface enable), SCLK (serial interface clock), SDATA (serial interface data), and SDOUT (serial interface data
output) pins. Serially shifting bits into the device is enabled when SEN is low. Serial data SDATA are latched
at every SCLK rising edge when SEN is active (low). The serial data are loaded into the register at every 24th
SCLK rising edge when SEN is low. When the word length exceeds a multiple of 24 bits, the excess bits are
ignored. Data can be loaded in multiples of 24-bit words within a single active SEN pulse. The interface can
function with SCLK frequencies from 20 MHz down to very low speeds (of a few hertz) and also with a non-50%
SCLK duty cycle.

8.5.1.1 Register Initialization
After power-up, the internal registers must be initialized to their default values through a hardware reset by
applying a high pulse on the RESET pin (of durations greater than 10 ns), as shown in Figure 8-13. If required,
the serial interface registers can be cleared during operation either:
1. Through a hardware reset, or
2. By applying a software reset. When using the serial interface, set the RESET bit (D0 in register address 06h)
high. This setting initializes the internal registers to the default values and then self-resets the RESET bit
low. In this case, the RESET pin is kept low.
8.5.1.1.1 Serial Register Write
The device internal register can be programmed with these steps:
1. Drive the SEN pin low,
2. Set the R/W bit to 0 (bit A15 of the 16-bit address),
3. Set bit A14 in the address field to 1,
4. Initiate a serial interface cycle by specifying the address of the register (A13 to A0) whose content must be
written, and
5. Write the 8-bit data that are latched in on the SCLK rising edge.
Figure 8-13 and Table 8-4 show the timing requirements for the serial register write operation.

8.5.1.1.2 Serial Register Readout
The device includes a mode where the contents of the internal registers can be read back using the SDOUT pin.
This readback mode can be useful as a diagnostic check to verify the serial interface communication between
the external controller and the ADC. The procedure to read the contents of the serial registers is as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Drive the SEN pin low.
Set the R/W bit (A15) to 1. This setting disables any further writes to the registers.
Set bit A14 in the address field to 1.
Initiate a serial interface cycle specifying the address of the register (A[13:0]) whose content must be read.
The device outputs the contents (D[7:0]) of the selected register on the SDOUT pin.
The external controller can latch the contents at the SCLK rising edge.
To enable register writes, reset the R/W register bit to 0.
When READOUT is disabled, the SDOUT pin is in a high-impedance mode. If serial readout is not used, the
SDOUT pin must float. Figure 8-14 shows a timing diagram of the serial register read operation. Data appear
on the SDOUT pin at the SCLK falling edge with an approximate delay (tSD_DELAY) of 20 ns, as shown in Figure
8-15.

9 Applications and Implementation
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and
TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining
suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
Typical applications involving transformer-coupled circuits are discussed in this section. Transformers (such as
ADT1-1WT or WBC1-1) can be used up to 250 MHz to achieve good phase and amplitude balances at the ADC
inputs. When designing the dc-driving circuits, the ADC input impedance must be considered. Figure 9-1 and
Figure 9-2 show the impedance (Zin = Rin || Cin) across the ADC input pins.

9.2.1.1 Design Requirements
For optimum performance, the analog inputs must be driven differentially. An optional 5-Ω to 15-Ω resistor in
series with each input pin can be kept to damp out ringing caused by package parasitic. The drive circuit may
have to be designed to minimize the affect of kick-back noise generated by sampling switches opening and
closing inside the ADC, as well as ensuring low insertion loss over the desired frequency range and matched
impedance to the source.
9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
A typical application involving using two back-to-back coupled transformers is shown in Figure 9-3. This circuit is
optimized for low input frequencies. An external R-C-R filter using 50-Ω resistors and a 22-pF capacitor is used
with the series inductor (39 nH); this combination helps absorb the sampling glitches.
To improve phase and amplitude balance of first transformer, the termination resistors can be split between two
transformers. For example, 25-Ω to 25-Ω termination across the secondary winding of the second transformer
can be changed to 50-Ω to 50-Ω termination and another 50-Ω to 50-Ω resistor can be placed inside the dashed
box between the transformers in Figure 9-3.

9.4 Layout
9.4.1 Layout Guidelines
The ADC322x EVM layout can be used as a reference layout to obtain the best performance. A layout diagram
of the EVM top layer is provided in Figure 9-9. Some important points to remember during laying out the board
are:
1. Analog inputs are located on opposite sides of the device pin out to make sure minimum crosstalk on the
package level. To minimize crosstalk onboard, the analog inputs must exit the pin out in opposite directions,
as shown in the reference layout of Figure 9-9 as much as possible.
2. In the device pin out, the sampling clock is located on a side perpendicular to the analog inputs in order to
minimize coupling between them. This configuration is also maintained on the reference layout of Figure 9-9
as much as possible.
3. Keep digital outputs away from analog inputs. When these digital outputs exit the pin out, the digital output
traces must not be kept parallel to the analog input traces because this configuration can result in coupling
from digital outputs to analog inputs and degrade performance. All digital output traces to the receiver (such
as an FPGA or an ASIC) must be matched in length to avoid skew among outputs.
4. At each power-supply pin (AVDD and DVDD), a 0.1-µF decoupling capacitor must be kept close to the
device. A separate decoupling capacitor group consisting of a parallel combination of 10-µF, 1-µF, and
0.1-µF capacitors can be kept close to the supply source.
