10-Bit, 10Msps ADC
General Description
The MAX1426 10-bit, monolithic analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is capable of a 10Msps sampling rate. This device features an internal track-and-hold (T/H) amplifier for excellent dynamic performance; at the same time, it minimizes the number of external components. Low input capacitance of only 8pF minimizes input drive requirements. A wide input bandwidth (up to 150MHz) makes this device suitable for digital RF/IF downconverter applications employing undersampling techniques. The MAX1426 employs a differential pipelined architecture with a wideband T/H amplifier to maximize throughput while limiting power consumption to only 156mW. The MAX1426 generates an internal +2.5V reference that supplies three additional reference voltages (+3.25V, +2.25V, and +1.25V). These reference voltages provide a differential input range of +2V to -2V. The analog inputs are biased internally to correct the DC level, eliminating the need for external biasing on AC-coupled applications. A separate +3V digital logic supply input allows for separation of digital and analog circuitry. The output data is in two’s complement format. The MAX1426 is available in the space-saving 28-pin SSOP package. For a pin-compatible version at a higher data rate, refer to the MAX1424 or MAX1425

10-Bit, 10Msps ADC MAX1426
Detailed Description
The MAX1426 uses a 10-stage, fully differential, pipelined architecture (Figure 1) that allows for high-speed conversion while minimizing power consumption. Each sample moves through a pipeline stage every half clock cycle. Counting the delay through the output latch, there is a 5.5 clock-cycle latency. A 2-bit flash ADC converts the input voltage to digital code. A DAC converts the ADC result back into an analog voltage, which is subtracted from the held input signal. The resulting error signal is then multiplied by two, and this product is passed along to the next pipeline stage where the process is repeated. Digital error correction compensates for offsets and mismatches in each pipeline stage and ensures no missing codes. the residue by two and the next stage in the pipeline performs a similar operation.
System Timing Requirements
Figure 3 shows the relationship between the clock input, analog input, and data output. The MAX1426 samples the falling edge of the input clock. Output data is valid on the rising edge of the input clock. The output data has an internal latency of 5.5 clock cycles, as shown. Figure 4 shows an output timing diagram that specifies the relationship between the input clock parameters and the valid output data.
Analog Input and Internal Reference
The MAX1426 has an internal +2.5V reference used to generate three reference levels: +3.25V, +2.25V, and +1.25V corresponding to V REFP, V CML, and V REFN. These reference voltages enable a ±2V input range. Bypass all reference voltages with a 0.1µF capacitor. The MAX1426 allows for three modes of reference operation: an internal reference (default) mode, an externally adjusted reference mode, or a full external reference mode. The internal reference mode occurs when no voltages are applied to REFIN, REFP, CML,

Internal Track-and-Hold Circuit
Figure 2 shows a simplified functional diagram of the internal track-and-hold (T/H) circuit in both track mode and hold mode. The fully differential circuit samples the input signal onto the four capacitors C1a, C1b, C2a, and C2b. Switches S2a and S2b set the common mode for the amplifier input, and open before S1. When S1 opens, the input is sampled. Switches S3a and S3b then connect capacitors C1a and C1b to the output of the amplifier. Capacitors C2a and C2b are connected either to REFN, REFP, or each other, depending on the results of the flash ADC. The amplifier then multiplies

and REFN. In this mode, the voltages at these pins are set to their nominal values (see E lectrical Characteristics). The reference voltage levels can be adjusted externally by applying a voltage at REFIN. This allows other input levels to be used as well. The full external reference mode is entered when REFIN = AGND. External voltages can be applied to REFP, CML, and REFIN. In this mode, the internal voltage shuts down, resulting in less overall power consumption.

Clock Input (CLK)
CLK is TTL/CMOS compatible. Since the interstage conversion of the device depends on the rising and falling edges of the external clock, use a clock with low jitter and fast rise and fall times (
