REV. 1.0.0
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• Sampling rates from 1.0 MSPS to 10.0 MSPS per chan-
The XRD9836 is a precision 16-bit analog front-end
(AFE) for use in 3-channel/1-channel CCD/CIS document imaging applications. Pixel-by-pixel gain and
offset for each of the 3 channels are controlled using
a time multiplexed parallel input. Offset and Gain are
sequentially supplied for red, green, and blue. The
outputs from each of the three channels are transmitted time multiplexed with the high order byte first followed by the low order byte for red, blue and green.
FEATURES
• 16-bit resolution ADC, 30MHz Sampling Rate
• 10-bit accurate linear programmable gain range selectable as either 2-to-20 V/V or 1-to-10 V/V per channel
• Fully-differential input pins and internal path
nel for 3 -Channel mode and up to 15.0 MSPS in single
channel mode.
• Pixel-by-Pixel Offset and Gain control through a parallel
interface running at a maximum 60 Mbyte/sec. data rate
• A microprocessor serial port to control various modes of
operation
• Fixed Gain/Offset Mode (FGOM) or Pixel by Pixel Gain/
Offset Mode (PPGOM)
• Alternate Pixel Offset Adjust Mode (APOAM)
• Low Power CMOS=280mW (typ. @ 3V); Power-Down
Mode=1mW (typ. @ 3V with static clocks)
• Single Power Supply (3.0 to 3.6 Volts) with Max CCD
input signal of 1V and reset pulse up to 0.5V
• High ESD Protection: 2000 Volts Minimum
APPLICATIONS
• Scanners, MFP’s

A 10-bit parallel bus Offset Gain Input Port (OGI) is
used to transfer 10 bits of Gain and 10 bits of Offset.
In the 3-channel mode, the data is received sequentially in the following order: red gain, red offset, green
gain, green offset, blue gain, blue offset. In 1-channel
mode, the data is received sequentially gain then offset. For an example of both 3-channel and 1-channel

The XRD9836 provides a 16-bit Analog Front End
functionality for Mid-to-High range, next-generation
scanner applications. It has 3 channels of Correlated
Double Sampling (CDS), using a 10-bit Dynamic Offset DAC, a 10-bit Programmable Gain Amplifier
(PGA) and a 10-bit Fine Offset DAC for Red, Green,
and Blue CCD signals. A 16-bit 30MHz ADC is multiplexed among these 3 channels to provide digitized
image data for the scanner ASIC chip. In 3-channel
mode, the order of channels is R, G, B. In the 1-channel mode, only the selected channel is active. The
XRD9836 provides one of the key requirements for
the next generation scanner AFE’s, the ability to control Pixel-by-Pixel Gain and Offset values. Figure 3
shows the ASIC and AFE interface for the proposed
system.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

16-BIT PIXEL GAIN AFE
REV. 1.0.0
GAIN SELECT:
also reminded that data coming out of the ADC outputs will have latency from the gain and offset provided (10 ADC cycles for single color and 12 cycles for
3-color). This latency includes the cycles to put the
gain and offset data into the registers and the latency
of the ADC itself (9 ADCLK cycles).
The XRD9836’s Gain range is selectable to either 1 to
10 or 2 to 20 with the Gain Select Bit. If Gain of 1 to
10 is selected (Gain Select bit = 0), the maximum input is 1.0V. If Gain of 2 to 20 is selected (Gain Select
bit = 1), the maximum input is 0.5V.
Sampling of the OGI parallel input port is defined as
the red gain data being the first pulse of ADCLK after
VSAMP, therefor VSAMP must occur before a rising
edge of ADCLK. It is also recommended that
VSAMP__OGI_DLY (DelayD[7:4]) should be smaller
than OGI_DLY (DelayA[7:4]) to make sure the correct
data is sampled, and that relationship is not reversed
internally.
PARALLEL PORT FOR PIXEL OFFSET
AND GAIN CONTROL (OGI):

Gain Inputs (OGI) and ADCLK in relationship to
VSAMP.

The timing diagram, Figure 5, shows the ADC output
(ADCDO). The XRD9836 will be clocking ADC high
order bytes on the rising edge of ADCLK and clocking
ADC low order bytes on the falling edge of ADCLK.
As noted the RGB data is synchronized to sampling

The ASIC chip will be clocking OGI data at six times
the pixel rate clock in 3-CH mode and two times the
pixel rate in 1-CH mode. The gain data is grabbed on
the rising edge of ADCLK and the offset data on the
falling edge of ADCLK. The OGI port is read into internal pixel gain and offset registers only when Input
Enable (IE) is active before the sampling edge of
VSAMP as shown above. As noted the RGB gain/offset data is synchronized to sampling edge of VSAMP.
Note that ADCLK frequency is 3X the pixel rate in 3CH mode and 1X the pixel rate in 1-CH mode. The
ADCLK’s duty cycle is required to be 50%. It is assumed that the OGI port and ADCLK input have
matched output drivers inside the ASIC, matched
trace lengths on the PCB between the ASIC and the
XRD9836, and matched delays at input buffers inside
the XRD9836 in order to receive OGI data on both
edges of ADCLK error free.

PIXEL GAIN/OFFSET CONTROL (FGOM
OR PGOM):
Figure 6 shows the block diagram of the CDS/PGA/
Offset DACs/ADC signal path. The offset for each
channel is controlled by a 10-bit Dynamic offset DAC
before the CDS amplifier and a 10-bit Fine offset DAC
after the PGA amplifier. Thus, the total offset of each
channel is controlled by two 10-bit offset DACs. The
Dynamic offset DAC will have a range of -80mV to
+160mV, with the ability to adjust the CDS stage offset to within +/- 0.25mV. The Fine offset DAC will

have a range of +/- 128mV, with the ability to adjust
PGA offsets to within +/- 0.25mV.
There are two modes of operation for Pixel Gain and
Offset control. The first is a fixed gain and offset control mode where the gain and offset is adjusted once
per line or per scan. The second mode is a pixel to
pixel adjustment of gain and offset. This mode allows
for gain and offset adjustment for each and every pixel. These modes are controlled by bit D0, GOM (Gain
Offset Mode), in the MODE register.

LCLMP TIMING:
In PPGOM (pixel-by-pixel gain and offset mode,
GOM=1), the user can input 10 bits of Gain and 10
bits of Dynamic offset data through the OGI port.
In order to reject higher frequency power supply
noise which is not attenuated near the sampling frequency, the XRD9836 utilizes a fully differential input
structure. Since the CDS process uses AC coupled
inputs, the coupling capacitor must be charged to the
common-mode range of the analog front-end. This
can be accomplished by clamping the coupling capacitor to the internal clamp voltage when the CCD is
at a reference level at the beginning of each line using LCLMP. This needs to be done for enough clamping time (Tclamp) which is determined by external
Capacitor, internal switch resistance, BSAMP pulse
width and number of samples during line clamp. The

CCD MODE(CORRELATED DOUBLE
SAMPLING):
Correlated double sampling is a technique used to
level shift and acquire CCD output signals whose information is equal to the difference between consecutive reference (VBlack) and signal (VVideo) samples.
The CDS process consists of three steps:
where
N * tp w b
( Rc + R s ) * ln
( V rV-eV c)
tpwb = clamp pulse width (BSAMP typ 25ns)
N = number of pixels used for clamping
Rc = clamp resistance (typ 50ohms)
1) Sampling and holding the reference black level
(VBlack).
Rs = signal source resistance (typ 50ohms)
2) Sampling the video level (VVideo).
Vc = clamp voltage (1.2V)
3) Subtracting the two samples to extract the video information. (CCD signal information = VBlack- VVideo)
Ve = error voltage (3.05uV worst case)
Vr = black level
The clamp LCLMP should be active for at least 4 pixels during Optical Black (OB) and should be inactive
during all of the Active portion of the line. Usually OB
lasts for 40 - 50 pixels. It is better if LCLMP remains
active during as much of OB as possible. LCLMP
should be set Active 1ns before BSAMP leading edge
and should be held for at least 1ns after BSAMP trailing edge.
Once the CCD signal information has been extracted,
it can be processed further through amplification and/
or offset adjustment. Since system noise is also
stored and subtracted during the CDS process, signals with bandwidths less than half the sampling frequency will be substantially attenuated.

4. VSAMP should have typ > 25ns pulse width.
In addition to the above requirement for LCLMP on a
line by line basis there is an additional requirement
for a one time LCLMP upon power-up to provide the
AC coupling capacitor’s initial charge. The one time
LCLMP pulse width can also be determined from the
Cmax equation above. A typical value, using 1 nf cap,
with initial charge of 3V (Vr - Vc), and a BSAMP pulse
width of 25ns, is estimated to be 1.4us. This is equivalent to one time LCLMP of 56 OB pixels upon power
up.
5. LCLMP is not needed for CIS Applications. (except
for APOAM even and odd selection)

This mode allows simultaneous CDS of the red,

At the end of the video sampling phase, the difference between the reference and video levels is inverted, amplified, and offset depending on the contents of
the PGA gain and offset registers. The RGB channels
are then sequentially converted by a high-speed A/D
converter. Converted data appears on the data output
bus after 9 ADCLK cycles. The red channel is synchronized on the rising edge of the first ADCLK after
the sampling edge of VSAMP. The power-up default
mode is for CDS sampling a CCD input.

The 1-Channel CDS mode allows high-speed acquisition and processing of a single channel. The timing,
clamp and buffer configurations are similar to the 3channel mode described previously. To select a single
channel input, the color bits of configuration selected
by CHAN[1:0] bits, in the MODE register, must be set
to the appropriate value. The A/D input will begin to
track the selected color input on the next positive
edge of ADCLK. If the configuration is toggled from a
single color mode to 3-channel mode, RGB scanning
will not occur until the circuit is re-synchronized on
the sampling edge of VSAMP.
3-CHANNEL CIS AND S/H MODE
The XRD9836 also supports operation for Contact
Image Sensor (CIS) and S/H applications. The red
channel is synchronized on the rising edge of the first
ADCLK after the sampling edge of VSAMP.
In this mode of operation, the BSAMP input is connected to DGND, and input sampling occurs on the
falling edge of VSAMP(VSAMP_POL=0).
1-CHANNEL CIS AND S/H MODE:
The 1-channel CIS S/H mode allows high-speed acquisition and processing of a single channel. The timing, clamp and buffer configurations are similar to the
3-channel mode. In single channel mode one color
channel is selected using CHAN[1:0]. If the configuration is toggled from single color to 3-channel mode,
RGB scanning will not occur until the circuit is re-synchronized by the first sampling edge of VSAMP.
CIS MODE:
The AFE can be configured for inputs from a CCD or
a CIS type device by setting the CCD_CIS bit. For
CIS mode, the following interface features are provided:
1. DC Coupled Inputs.
2. Gain Range is 0.5 to 5 with 10 bit resolution.
3. It is assumed that CIS Sample and Hold Outputs
and DC offset buffer have low output impedances(~50 ohms).

TIMING - CLOCK BASICS:
XRD9836 has included a programmable delay function to help simplify this job.
The XRD9836 has 4 clock signals BSAMP, VSAMP,
ADCLK and LCLMP. These inputs control the sampling, clamping and synchronization functions of the
device.
There are four serial interface registers, DelayA, DelayB, DelayC and DelayD, used to program various
delays of the pixel timing and Data and OGI bus timing. Each register is divided into 2 delay parameters.
Each delay parameter is 4 bits wide.
The pixel rate clocks are BSAMP, VSAMP and ADCLK. BSAMP controls the sampling of the black reference level of a CCD input signal. VSAMP controls the
sampling of the video level of a CCD or CIS output
signal. The ADCLK controls the internal sampling of
the PGA by the ADC and ADC operation.
DelayA[7:4] controls the OGI sampling delay. These
bits program the delay of the ADCLK used to sample
the OGI input bus. Delay is added in 1ns increments.
See Figure 12.
DelayA[3:0] controls the ADCDO delay. These bits
are used to program the timing delay added to the
ADCDO data bus updates. Delay is added in 1ns increments. See Figure 11.
The line rate clock, LCLMP, performs the clamping
and synchronization functions. The clamp function
sets the bias point for the external AC coupling capacitor on the inputs. Synchronization defines the odd
pixel in the APOAM mode.
DelayB[7:4] controls the amount of delay added to the
leading edge of BSAMP. Delay to the leading edge
will be added in 0.5ns increments. This can help to
position the leading edge of the internal BSAMP away
from the reset pulse of the CCD input. See Figure 11.
CLOCK POLARITY
Each of the 4 timing signals has a separate polarity
control bit in the CONTROL register. Figure 10 shows
the logic implementation of the polarity control. If the
polarity bit is low (default) BSAMP and VSAMP sample on the falling edge, LCLMP is active high and ADCLK must be low during the VSAMP falling edge. See
timing examples if Figure 17 and Figure 18
DelayB[3:0] controls the amount of delay added to the
trailing edge of BSAMP. Delay to the trailing edge will
be added in 0.5ns increments. This will allow for adjustment of the Black Level sampling position by the
internal BSAMP. See Figure 11.
If any of the external timing signals are inverted from
the default timing simply write a “1” to the appropriate
polarity bit to compensate.

ALTERNATE PIXEL OFFSET ADJUST
MODE (APOAM):
In the PPGOM mode, the APOAM can be selected
only when Input Enable (IE) is disabled. The last dynamic gain and offset programmed using the OGI
port are used for the odd pixels.
In some applications, alternate pixels along a scan
line come from two different rows of CCD’s, causing a
systematic offset between alternate pixels. When the
XRD9836 is operated in the Fixed Gain Offset Mode
(FGOM), it does not have the ability to compensate
for this alternating offset phenomenon.
The APOAM dynamic offset and the APOAM fine register values, programmed through the USIO port are
used for the even pixels. The gain value is fixed as the
last received value through the serial port. This is
shown in Figure 14.
To compensate for these offsets, this chip has an Alternate Pixel Offset Adjust mode (APOAM), which
can be enabled by writing a 1 to the APOAM bit (D1of
the MODE register) through the serial port. In
APOAM mode each channel has four 10-bit offset
registers to control offset. Odd pixel offsets are compensated for by the Dynamic Offset Register value
and the Fine Offset Register value. The even pixel offsets are compensated for by the APOAM Dynamic
Offset Register value and the APOAM Fine Offset
Register value. The individual channel pixel gains do
not change and are determined by the red, green and
blue PGA gain register settings.

The offset alternates every other pixel. The first pixel
and all odd pixels in the line use the dynamic offset
and fine offset register values. The even pixels use
the APOAM dynamic offset and the APOAM fine offset register values. Odd pixels are defined from the
first ADCLK after the fall of LCLMP.
Note: LCLMP also defines which pixel is even or odd.
The first pixel after LCLMP goes inactive is odd. Position LCLMP so that there are an even number of pixels before start of active pixels.

MICRO-CONTROLLER SERIAL PORT
FOR MODE CONTROL (USIO):
XRD9836 the SDIO pin stays configured as an input
for entire 18 SCLK's before LOAD goes high. The E0
and E1 bits are dummy (unused) bits.
The uSIO is a bidirectional I/O port which is used for
configuring various operating modes as well as phase
aligning internal clocks (delay control). The serial port
can be used to program any of the registers listed in
the registers table. Note that SDIO is a bidirectional
pin used to read or write the XRD9836 internal registers. The R/W bit will define the direction of the bus
after Address bits. If R/W = 0, a write to the XRD9836
is performed. If R/W = 1, a read of the XRD9836’s internal registers is performed.
For a read of the XRD9836 internal registers (R/W=1)
the E0 and E1 are used as a transition time for the
SDIO pin going from an input to a output. During this
time SDIO pin is tri-stated. SDIO is an input while serial port accepts the address of the register to be read
and during the E0 and E1 time period transitions to
an output for the read operation.
During a read operation the first 18 positive edges are
used. If there are less than 18, not all of the data will
be output. If there are more than 18, only the first 18
bits will be valid. The data becomes valid after the rising edge of SCLK.
During a write operation there must be 18 positive
edges of SCLK between the fall of LOAD and the rise
of LOAD. If there are more or less than 18, the write
operation will not take place. For a write to the

The CNTRL / POL register is used to program various options including: input timing polarity control, dynamic low
power disable, power down for the chip, output enable, and reset. Reset will reset ALL registers including reset.
All the clock inputs (except the serial interface SCLK) can be programmed to be active high or active low. See the “Timing” section for more information. ADCpol, LCLMPpol, BSAMPpol, and VSAMPpol set the polarity of ADCLK, LCLMP,
BSAMP, and VSAMP respectively.
ADCpol - Sets the polarity of the ADCLK input. ADCpol = 0, ADCLK low during VSAMP. ADCpol = 0, ADCLK inverted
so that it is high during VSAMP.
LCLMPpol - Sets the polarity of the LCLMP input. LCLMPpol = 0, LCMLP is active high during clamping operation and
odd pixel determined from falling edge.
BSAMPpol - Sets the polarity of the BSAMP input. BSAMPpol = 0, BSAMP is active high. The CCD black level is sample by the falling edge. BSAMPpol = 1, BSAMP is active low. The CCD black level is sample by the rising edge.
VSAMPpol - Sets the polarity of the VSAMP input. VSAMPpol = 0, VSAMP is active high. The CCD video level is sample by the falling edge. VSAMPpol = 1, VSAMP is active low. The CCD video level is sample by the rising edge.
DLP DISABLE (ADC Dynamic Low Power Disable)
PWRDWN - Puts the XRD9836 into power down state. PWRDWN = 0, normal operation. PWRDWN = 1, low power
state.
OEB - Enables the ADCDO bus. OEB = 0, data valid on ADCDO bus. OEB = 1, ADCDO bus high impedance.
RESET - Will reset the XRD9836 to default (power up) conditions. RESET = 0, normal operation. RESET = 1, all internal registers set to default values and clears itself after ~ 10ns.

DelayA[7:4] - Controls the OGI_DLY. These bits are used to program the timing delay of the ADCLK used to sample the
Offset-Gain-Inputs (OGI). Code 0000 is delay of 0ns, and code 1111 is 15ns. Default is 1000 = 7 ns. OGI_DLY should
be larger than VSAMP_OGI_DLY.
DelayA[3:0] - Controls the ADCO_DLY. These bits are used to program the timing delay of ADCO outputs in relation to
ADCLK. Code 0000 is delay of 0ns, and code 1111 is 15ns. Default is 0000 = 0ns. This is used to adjust setup and hold
times of the output, for the ASIC chip.
DelayB[7:4] - Controls the BSAMP_LEADING_EDGE_DLY. These bits set the delay for the leading edge of the internal
BSAMP pulse. Code 0000 is no delay. The delay increases by 0.5 ns per step to a total of 7.5 ns. Default is 0000 = 0ns.
DelayB[3:0] - Controls the BSAMP_TRAILING_EDGE_DLY. These bits set the delay for the trailing edge of the internal
BSAMP pulse. Code 0000 is no delay. The delay increases by 0.5 ns per step to a total of 7.5 ns. Default is 0000 = 0ns.
DelayC[7:4] - Controls the VSAMP_LEADING_EDGE_DLY. These bits set the delay for the leading edge of the internal
VSAMP pulse. Code 0000 is no delay. The delay increases by 0.5 ns per step to a total of 7.5 ns. Default is 0000 = 0ns.
DelayC[3:0] - Controls the VSAMP_TRAILING_EDGE_DLY. These bits set the delay for the trailing edge of the internal
VSAMP pulse. Code 0000 is no delay. The delay increases by 0.5 ns per step to a total of 7.5 ns. Default is 0000 = 0ns.
DelayD[7:4] - Controls the VSAMP_OGI_DLY. These bits set the delay for the internal VSAMP that is used to transfer
the OGI register data to the PGA & OFFSET control registers.
DelayD[3:0] - Controls the ADC_DLY. These bits set the delay of the internal clock used for ADC operation. Code 0000
is no delay. The delay increases by 0.5 ns per step to a total of 7.5 ns. Default is 0000 = 0ns.

APPLICATION NOTES AND SCHEMATICS
the XRD9836. All VDD’s should be supplied from a
low noise, well filtered regulator which derives the
power supply voltage from the CCD power supply. All
of the AVDD pins are analog power supplies and
should be decoupled locally to the nearest ground pin
with at 0.1uF, high frequency capacitor. The DVDD
and OVDD power pins should be locally decoupled to
the nearest ground pin also. DVDD and OVDD should
be connected to the same power supply network as
the digital ASCI which receives data from the
XRD9836.
See Figure 23 for a typical CCD application hookup.
The diagram shows an interface to a standard 3
channel output CCD. Both the ADC Output and OGI
Control are parallel interfaces to the system ASIC
controller. The timing inputs are provided by the system ASIC or timing generator (TG). The serial port
control is typically sourced from a micro processor or
the system ASIC.
It is recommended that all AGND, DGND and OGND
pins, be connected to the analog ground plane under

FIGURE 23. TYPICAL CCD APPLICATION DIAGRAM FOR THE XRD9836
The XRD9836 has an input range limitation of 1V
maximum for a CCD input. If the maximum CCD output signal swing is greater than 1V, a resisitive divider
network on the inputs can be used to reduce the CCD
output to meet the 1V input max requirement of the
XRD9836 inputs. See Figure 24 for a typical implementation of a resistor divider. Each input channel will
require a matching divider network.
