APPLICATIONS

Radar Warning/Guidance Systems Infrared Systems GENERAL DESCRIPTION The AD9020 A/D converter is a 10-bit monolithic converter capable of word rates of 60 MSPS and above. Innovative archi- tecture using 512 input comparators instead of the traditional 1024 required by other flash converters reduces input capaci- tance and improves linearity. Encode and outputs are TTL-compatible, making the AD9020 an ideal candidate for use in low power systems. An overflow bit is provided to indicate analog input signals greater than SENSE. Voltage sense lines are provided to insure accurate driving of the ± VREF voltages applied to the units. Quarter-point taps on the resistor ladder help optimize the integral linearity of the unit. Either 68-pin ceramic leaded (gull wing) packages or ceramic LCCs are available and are specifically designed for low thermal impedances. Two performance grades for temperatures of both 0°C to +70°C and –55°C to +125°C ranges are offered to allow the user to select the linearity best suited for each application. Dynamic performance is fully characterized and production tested at +25°C. MIL-STD-883 units are available. The AD9020 A/D Converter is available in versions compliant with MIL-STD-883.

–6– REV. A THEORY OF OPERATION Refer to the AD9020 block diagram. As shown, the AD9020 uses a modified “flash,” or parallel, A/D architecture. The ana- log input range is determined by an external voltage reference (+VREF and –VREF), nominally ± 1.75 V. An internal resistor lad- der divides this reference into 512 steps, each representing two quantization levels. Taps along the resistor ladder (1/4 REF, 1/2REF and 3/4REF) are provided to optimize linearity. Rated per- formance is achieved by driving these points at 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4, respectively, of the voltage reference range. The A/D conversion for the nine most significant bits (MSBs) is performed by 512 comparators. The value of the least signifi- cant bit (LSB) is determined by a unique interpolation scheme between adjacent comparators. The decoding logic processes the comparator outputs and provides a 10-bit code to the output stage of the converter. Flash architecture has an advantage over other A/D architec- tures because conversion occurs in one step. This means the performance of the converter is primarily limited by the speed and matching of the individual comparators. In the AD9020, an innovative interpolation scheme takes advantage of flash archi- tecture but minimizes the input capacitance, power and device count usually associated with that method of conversion. These advantages occur by using only half the normal number of input comparator cells to accomplish the conversion. In addi- tion, a proprietary decoding scheme minimizes error codes. In- put control pins allow the user to select from among Binary, Inverted Binary, Twos Complement and Inverted Twos Complement coding (see AD9020 Truth Table). Many of the specifications used to describe analog/digital con- verters have evolved from system performance requirements in these applications. Different systems emphasize particular speci- fications, depending on how the part is used. The following ap- plications highlight some of the specifications and features that make the AD9020 attractive in these systems. Wideband Receivers Radar and communication receivers (baseband and direct IF digitization), ultrasound medical imaging, signal intelligence and spectral analysis all place stringent ac performance require- ments on analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Frequency do- main characterization of the AD9020 provides signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and harmonic distortion data to simplify selection of the ADC. Receiver sensitivity is limited by the Signal-to-Noise Ratio of the system. The SNR for an ADC is measured in the frequency do- main and calculated with a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The SNR equals the ratio of the fundamental component of the sig- nal (rms amplitude) to the rms value of the noise. The noise is the sum of all other spectral components, including harmonic distortion, but excluding dc. Good receiver design minimizes the level of spurious signals in the system. Spurious signals developed in the ADC are the re- sult of imperfections in the device transfer function (non- linearities, delay mismatch, varying input impedance, etc.). In the ADC, these spurious signals appear as Harmonic Distortion. Harmonic Distortion is also measured with an FFT and is speci- fied as the ratio of the fundamental component of the signal (rms amplitude) to the rms value of the worst case harmonic (usually the 2nd or 3rd). Two-Tone Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) is a frequently cited specification in receiver design. In narrow-band receivers, third- order IMD products result in spurious signals in the pass band of the receiver. Like mixers and amplifiers, the ADC is charac- terized with two, equal-amplitude, pure input frequencies. The IMD equals the ratio of the power of either of the two input sig- nals to the power of the strongest third-order IMD signal. Un- like mixers and amplifiers, the IMD does not always behave as it does in linear devices (reduced input levels do not result in pre- dictable reductions in IMD). Performance graphs provide typical harmonic and SNR data for the AD9020 for increasing analog input frequencies. In choos- ing an A/D converter, always look at the dynamic range for the analog input frequency of interest. The AD9020 specifications provide guaranteed minimum limits at three analog test frequencies. Aperture Delay is the delay between the rising edge of the EN- CODE command and the instant at which the analog input is sampled. Many systems require simultaneous sampling of more than one analog input signal with multiple ADCs. In these situ- ations, timing is critical and the absolute value of the aperture delay is not as critical as the matching between devices. Aperture Uncertainty, or jitter, is the sample-to-sample variation in aperture delay. This is especially important when sampling high slew rate signals in wide bandwidth systems. Aperture un- certainty is one of the factors that degrade dynamic performance as the analog input frequency is increased.

–7–REV. A Digitizing Oscilloscopes Oscilloscopes provide amplitude information about an observed waveform with respect to time. Digitizing oscilloscopes must ac- curately sample this signal, without distorting the information to be displayed. One figure of merit for the ADC in these applications is Effective Number of Bits (ENOBs). ENOB is calculated with a sine wave curve fit and equals: ENOB = N – LOG2 [Error (measured)/Error (ideal)] N is the resolution (number of bits) of the ADC. The measured error is the actual rms error calculated from the converter out- puts with a pure sine wave input. The Analog Bandwidth of the converter is the analog input fre- quency at which the spectral power of the fundamental signal is reduced 3 dB from its low frequency value. The analog band- width is a good indicator of a converter’s stewing capabilities. The Maximum Conversion Rate is defined as the encode rate at which the SNR for the lowest analog signal test frequency tested drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit. Imaging Visible and infrared imaging systems both require similar char- acteristics from ADCs. The signal input (from a CCD camera, or multiplexer) is a time division multiplexed signal consisting of a series of pulses whose amplitude varies in direct proportion to the intensity of the radiation detected at the sensor. These vary- ing levels are then digitized by applying encode commands at the correct times, as shown below. ENCODE A IN AD9020 FS+ FS– Imaging Application Using AD9020 The actual resolution of the converter is limited by the thermal and quantization noise of the ADC. The low frequency test for SNR or ENOB is a good measure of the noise of the AD9020. At this frequency, the static errors in the ADC determine the useful dynamic range of the ADC. Although the signal being sampled does not have a significant slew rate, this does not imply dynamic performance is not im- portant. The Transient Response and Overvoltage Recovery Time specifications insure that the ADC can track full-scale changes in the analog input sufficiently fast to capture a valid sample. Transient Response is the time required for the AD9020 to achieve full accuracy when a step function is applied. Overvolt- age Recovery Time is the time required for the AD9020 to re- cover to full accuracy after an analog input signal 150% of full scale is reduced to the full-scale range of the converter. Professional Video Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is now common in television production. Modern studios rely on digitized video to create state-of-the-art special effects. Video instrumentation also re- quires high resolution ADCs for studio quality measurement and frame storage. The AD9020 provides sufficient resolution for these demanding applications. Conversion speed, dynamic performance and ana- log bandwidth are suitable for digitizing both composite and RGB video sources.

–8– REV. A USING THE AD9020 Voltage References The AD9020 requires that the user provide two voltage refer- ences: +VREF and –VREF. These two voltages are applied across an internal resistor ladder (nominally 37 Ω ) and set the analog input voltage range of the converter. The voltage references should be driven from a stable, low impedance source. In addi- tion to these two references, three evenly spaced taps on the re- sistor ladder (1/4 REF, 1/2REF, 3/4REF) are available. Providing a reference to these quarter points on the resistor ladder will im- prove the integral linearity of the converter and improve ac per- formance. (AC and dc specifications are tested while driving the quarter points at the indicated levels.) The figure below is not intended to show the transfer function of the ADC, but illus- trates how the linearity of the device is affected by reference voltages applied to the ladder. Effect of Reference Taps on Linearity Resistance between the reference connections and the taps of the first and last comparators causes offset errors. These errors, called “top and bottom of the ladder offsets,” can be nulled by using the voltage sense lines, +V SENSE and –VSENSE, to adjust the reference voltages. Current through the sense lines should be limited to less than 100 µA. Excessive current drawn through the voltage sense lines will affect the accuracy of the sense line voltage. The next page shows a reference circuit which nulls out the off- set errors using two op amps and provides appropriate voltage references to the quarter-point taps. Feedback from the sense lines causes the op amps to compensate for the offset errors. The two transistors limit the amount of current drawn directly from the op amps; resistors at the base connections stabilize their operation. The 10 k Ω resistors (R1–R4) between the volt- age sense lines form an external resistor ladder; the quarter point voltages are taken off this external ladder and buffered by an op amp. The actual values of resistors R1–R4 are not critical, but they should match well and be large enough ( ≥10 kΩ ) to limit the amount of current drawn from the voltage sense lines. The select resistors (R S) shown in the schematic (each pair can be a potentiometer) are chosen to adjust the quarter-point volt- age references, but are not necessary if R1–R4 match within 0.05%. An alternative approach for defining the quarter-point refer- ences of the resistor ladder is to evaluate the integral linearity error of an individual device, and adjust the voltage at the quarter-points to minimize this error. This may improve the low frequency ac performance of the converter. Performance of the AD9020 has been optimized with an analog input voltage of ± 1.75 V (as measured at ± V SENSE). If the ana- log input range is reduced below these values, relatively larger differential nonlinearity errors may result because of comparator mismatches. As shown in the figure below, performance of the converter is a function of ± V SENSE. EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB) SIGNAL-TO-NOISE (SNR) – dB 62 10.0 9.0 8.0 7.0 6.0 5.0 ±VSENSE – Volts 0.6 1.2 1.6 AD9020 SNR and ENOB vs. Reference Voltage Applying a voltage greater than 4 V across the internal resistor ladder will cause current densities to exceed rated values, and may cause permanent damage to the AD9020. The design of the reference circuit should limit the voltage available to the references. Analog Input Signal The signal applied to ANALOG IN drives the inputs of 512 parallel comparator cells (see Equivalent Analog Input figure). This connection typically has an input resistance of 7 k Ω , and input capacitance of 45 pF. The input capacitance is nearly constant over the analog input voltage range, as shown in the graph which illustrates that characteristic. The analog input signal should be driven from a low distortion, low noise amplifier. A good choice is the AD9617, a wide band- width, monolithic operational amplifier with excellent ac and dc performance. The input capacitance should be isolated by a small series resistor (24 Ω for the AD9617) to improve the ac performance of the amplifier (see AD9020/PCB Evaluation Board Block Diagram).

–10– REV. A DATA FOR N DATA FOR N + 1DATA OUTPUT N N + 1 N N + 1ANALOG INPUT ENCODE – Aperture Delay – Output DelaytOD ta tOD ta AD9020 Timing Diagram Timing In the AD9020, the rising edge of the ENCODE signal triggers the A/D conversion by latching the comparators. (See the AD9020 Timing Diagram.) The ENCODE is TTL/CMOS compatible and should be driven from a low jitter (phase noise) source. Jitter on the ENCODE signal will raise the noise floor of the converter. Fast, clean edges will reduce the jitter in the signal and allow optimum ac performance. Locking the system clock to a crystal oscillator also helps reduce jitter. The AD9020 is designed to operate with a 50% duty cycle; small (10%) variations in duty cycle should not degrade performance. Data Format The format of the output data (D 0–D9) is controlled by the MSB INVERT and LSBs INVERT pins. These inputs are dc control inputs, and should be connected to GROUND or +V The AD9020 Truth Table gives information to choose from among Binary, Inverted Binary, Twos Complement and In- verted Twos Complement coding. The OVERFLOW output is an indication that the analog input signal has exceeded the voltage at +V SENSE. The accuracy of the overflow transition voltage and output delay are not tested or in- cluded in the data sheet limits. Performance of the overflow in- dicator is dependent on circuit layout and slew rate of the encode signal. The operation of this function does not affect the other data bits (D 0–D9). It is not recommended for applications requiring a critical measure of the analog input voltage. Layout and Power Supplies Proper layout of high speed circuits is always critical but is par- ticularly important when both analog and digital signals are involved. Analog signal paths should be kept as short as possible and be properly terminated to avoid reflections. The analog input volt- age and the voltage references should be kept away from digital signal paths; this reduces the amount of digital switching noise that is capacitively coupled into the analog section of the circuit. Digital signal paths should also be kept short, and run lengths should be matched to avoid propagation delay mismatch. In high speed circuits, layout of the ground circuit is a critical factor. A single, low impedance ground plane, on the compo- nent side of the board, will reduce noise on the circuit ground. Power supplies should be capacitively coupled to the ground plane to reduce noise in the circuit. Multilayer boards allow designers to lay out signal traces without interrupting the ground plane and provide low impedance power planes. It is especially important to maintain the continuity of the ground plane under and around the AD9020. In systems with dedicated digital and analog grounds, all grounds of the AD9020 should be connected to the analog ground plane. The power supplies (+V S and –VS) of the AD9020 should be iso- lated from the supplies used for external devices; this further re- duces the amount of noise coupled into the A/D converter. Sockets limit the dynamic performance and should be used only for prototypes or evaluation—PCK Elastomerics Part # CCS-68- 55 is recommended for the LCC package.

–12– REV. A C1348b–0–6/97PRINTED IN U.S.A. AD9020/PCB EVALUATION BOARD The AD9020/PCB Evaluation Board is available from the fac- tory and is shown here in block diagram form. The board in- cludes a reference circuit that allows the user to adjust both references and the quarter-point voltages. The AD9617 is in- cluded as the drive amplifier, and the user can configure the gain from –1 to –15. On-board reconstruction of the digital data is provided through the AD9713, a 12-bit monolithic DAC. The analog and recon- structed waveforms can be summed on the board to allow the user to observe the linearity of the AD9020 and the effects of the quarterpoint voltages. The digital data and an adjustable Data Ready signal are available through a 37-pin edge connector.
