Dual 10-Bit, 20Msps, +3V, Low-Power ADC with Internal Reference and Parallel Outputs
General Description
The MAX1184 is a +3V, dual 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) featuring fully-differential wideband track-and-hold (T/H) inputs, driving two pipelined, 9stage ADCs. The MAX1184 is optimized for low-power, high-dynamic performance applications in imaging, instrumentation, and digital communication applications. This ADC operates from a single +2.7V to +3.6V supply, consuming only 105mW while delivering a typical signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 59.5dB at an input frequency of 7.5MHz and a sampling rate of 20Msps. The T/H driven input stages incorporate 400MHz (-3dB) input amplifiers. The converters may also be operated with single-ended inputs. In addition to low operating power, the MAX1184 features a 2.8mA sleep mode as well as a 1µA power-down mode to conserve power during idle periods. An internal +2.048V precision bandgap reference sets the full-scale range of the ADC. A flexible reference structure allows the use of the internal or an externally derived reference, if desired for applications requiring increased accuracy or a different input voltage range. The MAX1184 features parallel, CMOS-compatible three-state outputs. The digital output format is set to two’s complement or straight offset binary through a single control pin. The device provides for a separate output power supply of +1.7V to +3.6V for flexible interfacing. The MAX1184 is available in a 7mm x 7mm, 48pin TQFP package, and is specified for the extended industrial (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range. Pin-compatible higher speed versions of the MAX1184 are also available. Please refer to the MAX1180 data sheet for 105Msps, the MAX1181 data sheet for 80Msps, the MAX1182 data sheet for 65Msps, and the MAX1183 data sheet for 40Msps. In addition to these speed grades, this family includes a 20Msps multiplexed output version (MAX1185), for which digital data is presented time-interleaved on a single, parallel 10-bit output port.

Note 1: SNR, SINAD, THD, SFDR, and HD3 are based on an analog input voltage of -0.5dB FS referenced to a +1.024V full-scale input voltage range. Note 2: Intermodulation distortion is the total power of the intermodulation products relative to the individual carrier. This number is 6dB or better, if referenced to the two-tone envelope. Note 3: Digital outputs settle to VIH, VIL. Parameter guaranteed by design. Note 4: With REFIN driven externally, REFP, COM, and REFN are left floating while powered down. Note 5: Equivalent dynamic performance is obtainable over full OVDD range with reduced CL.

Detailed Description
The MAX1184 uses a 9-stage, fully-differential pipelined architecture (Figure 1) that allows for highspeed conversion while minimizing power consumption. Samples taken at the inputs move progressively through the pipeline stages every half clock cycle. Counting the delay through the output latch, the clockcycle latency is five clock cycles. 1.5-bit (2-comparator) flash ADCs convert the heldinput voltages into a digital code. The digital-to-analog converters (DACs) convert the digitized results back into analog voltages, which are then subtracted from the original held input signals. The resulting error signals are then multiplied by two and the residues are passed along to the next pipeline stages, where the process is repeated until the signals have been processed by all nine stages. Digital error correction compensates for ADC comparator offsets in each of these pipeline stages and ensures no missing codes. hold mode. In track mode, switches S1, S2a, S2b, S4a, S4b, S5a, and S5b are closed. The fully differential circuits sample the input signals onto the two capacitors (C2a and C2b) through switches S4a and S4b. S2a and S2b set the common mode for the amplifier input, and open simultaneously with S1, sampling the input waveform. Switches S4a and S4b are then opened before switches S3a and S3b, connect capacitors C1a and C1b to the output of the amplifier, and switch S4c is closed. The resulting differential voltages are held on capacitors C2a and C2b. The amplifiers are used to charge capacitors C1a and C1b to the same values originally held on C2a and C2b. These values are then presented to the first-stage quantizers and isolate the pipelines from the fast-changing inputs. The wide input bandwidth T/H amplifiers allow the MAX1184 to trackand-sample/hold analog inputs of high frequencies (> Nyquist). The ADC inputs (INA+, INB+, INA-, and INB-) can be driven either differentially or single-ended. Match the impedance of INA+ and INA-, as well as INB+ and INB- and set the common-mode voltage to midsupply (VDD/2) for optimum performance.

Analog Inputs and Reference Configurations
The full-scale range of the MAX1184 is determined by the internally generated voltage difference between REFP (VDD/2 + VREFIN/4) and REFN (VDD/2 - VREFIN/4). The full-scale range for both on-chip ADCs is adjustable through the REFIN pin, which is provided for this purpose. REFOUT, REFP, COM (VDD/2), and REFN are internally buffered low-impedance outputs. The MAX1184 provides three modes of reference operation: • Internal reference mode • Buffered external reference mode • Unbuffered external reference mode In internal reference mode, connect the internal reference output REFOUT to REFIN through a resistor (e.g., 10kΩ) or resistor-divider, if an application requires a reduced full-scale range. For stability and noise filtering purposes, bypass REFIN with a >10nF capacitor to GND. In internal reference mode, REFOUT, COM, REFP, and REFN become low-impedance outputs. In buffered external reference mode, adjust the reference voltage levels externally by applying a stable and accurate voltage at REFIN. In this mode, COM, REFP, and REFN become outputs. REFOUT may be left open or connected to REFIN through a >10kΩ resistor. In unbuffered external reference mode, connect REFIN to GND. This deactivates the on-chip reference buffers for REFP, COM, and REFN. With their buffers shut down, these nodes become high impedance and may be driven through separate external reference sources. ered as an analog input and routed away from any analog input or other digital signal lines. The MAX1184 clock input operates with a voltage threshold set to VDD/2. Clock inputs with a duty cycle other than 50%, must meet the specifications for high and low periods as stated in the Electrical Characteristics.

System Timing Requirements
Figure 3 depicts the relationship between the clock input, analog input, and data output. The MAX1184 samples at the rising edge of the input clock. Output data for channels A and B is valid on the next rising edge of the input clock. The output data has an internal latency of five clock cycles. Figure 4 also determines the relationship between the input clock parameters and the valid output data on channels A and B.
Digital Output Data, Output Data Format Selection (T/B), Output Enable (OE)
All digital outputs, D0A–D9A (Channel A) and D0B–D9B (Channel B), are TTL/CMOS logic-compatible. There is a 5-clock-cycle latency between any particular sample and its corresponding output data. The output coding can be chosen to be either straight offset binary or two’s complement (Table 1) controlled by a single pin (T/B). Pull T/B low to select offset binary and high to activate two’s complement output coding. The capacitive load on the digital outputs D0A–D9A and D0B–D9B should be kept as low as possible (
