GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
APPLICATIONS  
The AD9683 is a 14-bit ADC with sampling speeds of up to  
250 MSPS. The AD9683 is designed to support communications  
applications where low cost, small size, wide bandwidth, and  
versatility are desired.  
Communications  
Diversity radio systems  
Multimode digital receivers (3G)  
TD-SCDMA, WiMAX, W-CDMA, CDMA2000, GSM, EDGE, LTE  
DOCSIS 3.0 CMTS upstream receive paths  
HFC digital reverse path receivers  
Smart antenna systems  
Electronic test and measurement equipment  
Radar receivers  
COMSEC radio architectures  
IED detection/jamming systems  
General-purpose software radios  
Broadband data applications  
Ultrasound equipment  
The ADC core features a multistage, differential pipelined  
architecture with integrated output error correction logic. The  
ADC core features wide bandwidth inputs supporting a variety  
of user-selectable input ranges. An integrated voltage reference  
eases design considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) is  
provided to compensate for variations in the ADC clock duty cycle,  
allowing the converter to maintain excellent performance. The  
JESD204B high speed serial interface reduces board routing  
requirements and lowers pin count requirements for the  
receiving device.  
The ADC output data is routed directly to the JESD204B serial  
output lane. These outputs are at CML voltage levels. Data can be  
sent through the lane at the maximum sampling rate of 250 MSPS,  
which results in a lane rate of 5 Gbps. Synchronization inputs  
(SYNCINB and SYSREF ) are provided.

Operating Temperature Range  
(Ambient)  
Typical θJA is specified for a 4-layer printed circuit board (PCB)  
with a solid ground plane. As shown in Table 7, airflow increases  
heat dissipation, which reduces θJA. In addition, metal in direct  
contact with the package leads from metal traces, through holes,  
ground, and power planes reduces the θJA.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings  
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress

other conditions above those indicated in the operational  
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute  
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect  
device reliability.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
A small resistor in series with each input can help reduce the  
The AD9683 has one analog input channel and one JESD204B  
output lane. The signal passes through several stages before  
appearing at the output port.  
peak transient current required from the output stage of the  
driving source. A shunt capacitor can be placed across the  
inputs to provide dynamic charging currents. This passive  
network creates a low-pass filter at the ADC input; therefore,  
the precise values are dependent on the application.  
The user can sample frequencies from dc to 400 MHz using  
appropriate low-pass or band-pass filtering at the ADC inputs  
with little loss in ADC performance. Operation above 400 MHz  
analog input is permitted but occurs at the expense of increased  
ADC noise and distortion.  
In intermediate frequency (IF) undersampling applications,  
reduce the shunt capacitors. In combination with the driving  
source impedance, the shunt capacitors limit the input band-  
width. Refer to the AN-742 Application Note, Frequency Domain  
Response of Switched-Capacitor ADCs; the AN-827 Application  
Note, A Resonant Approach to Interfacing Amplifiers to Switched-  
Capacitor ADCs; and the Analog Dialogue article, “Transformer-  
Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters,for more  
information.  
A synchronization capability is provided to allow synchronized  
timing between multiple devices.  
Programming and control of the AD9683 are accomplished using a  
3-pin, SPI-compatible serial interface.  
ADC ARCHITECTURE  
The AD9683 architecture consists of a front-end, sample-and-  
hold circuit, followed by a pipelined switched capacitor ADC. The  
quantized outputs from each stage are combined into a final 14-bit  
result in the digital correction logic. The pipelined architecture  
permits the first stage to operate on a new input sample, and the  
remaining stages to operate on the preceding samples. Sampling  
occurs on the rising edge of the clock.

Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low

to-analog converter (DAC) and an interstage residue amplifier  
(MDAC). The MDAC magnifies the difference between the  
reconstructed DAC output and the flash input for the next stage  
in the pipeline. One bit of redundancy is used in each stage to  
facilitate digital correction of flash errors. The last stage simply  
consists of a flash ADC.

For best dynamic performance, match the source impedances  
driving VIN+ and VIN− and differentially balance the inputs.  
Input Common Mode  
The input stage contains a differential sampling circuit that can  
be ac- or dc-coupled in differential or single-ended modes. The  
output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and passes the  
data to the output buffers. The output buffers are powered from a  
separate supply, allowing digital output noise to be separated from  
the analog core.  
The analog inputs of the AD9683 are not internally dc biased.  
In ac-coupled applications, the user must provide this bias  
externally. Configuring the input so that VCM = 0.5 × AVDD (or  
0.9 V) is recommended for optimum performance. An on-board  
common-mode voltage reference is included in the design and is  
available from the VCM pin. Using the VCM output to set the  
input common mode is recommended. Optimum performance  
is achieved when the common-mode voltage of the analog input  
is set by the VCM pin voltage (typically 0.5 × AVDD). Decouple  
the VCM pin to ground by using a 0.1 µF capacitor, as described  
in the Applications Information section. Place this decoupling  
capacitor close to the pin to minimize the series resistance and  
inductance between the part and this capacitor.  
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS  
The analog input to the AD9683 is a differential, switchedcapacitor  
circuit that has been designed for optimum performance while  
processing a differential input signal.  
The clock signal alternatively switches the input between sample  
mode and hold mode (see the configuration shown in Figure 43).  
When the input is switched into sample mode, the signal source  
must be capable of charging the sampling capacitors and settling  
within 1/2 clock cycle.  
Differential Input Configurations  
Optimum performance is achieved while driving the AD9683 in a  
differential input configuration. For baseband applications, the  
AD8138, ADA4937-1, ADA4938-1, and ADA4930-1 differential  
drivers provide excellent performance and a flexible interface to  
the ADC.  
Rev. 0 | Page 1± of 44  
 
 
 
 
AD9683  
Data Sheet  
The output common-mode voltage of the ADA4930-1 is easily  
set with the VCM pin of the AD9683 (see Figure 44), and the  
driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to  
provide band limiting of the input signal.  
15pF  
In the double balun and transformer configurations, the value  
of the input capacitors and resistors is dependent on the input  
frequency and source impedance. Based on these parameters,  
the value of the input resistors and capacitors may need to be  
adjusted or some components may need to be removed. Table 9  
displays recommended values to set the RC network for different  
input frequency ranges. However, these values are dependent on  
the input signal and bandwidth. Use these values only as a starting  
guide. Note that the values given in Table 9 are for the R1, R2, C1,  
C2, and R3 components shown in Figure 45 and Figure 46.

Figure 44. Differential Input Configuration Using the ADA4930-1  
For baseband applications where SNR is a key parameter,  
differential transformer coupling is the recommended input  
configuration. An example is shown in Figure 45. To bias the  
analog input, the VCM voltage can be connected to the center  
tap of the secondary winding of the transformer.  
An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at frequencies  
in the second Nyquist zone is to use an amplifier with variable  
gain. The AD8375 digital variable gain amplifier (DVGA)  
provides good performance for driving the AD9683. Figure 47  
shows an example of the AD8375 driving the AD9683 through  
a band-pass antialiasing filter.

VOLTAGE REFERENCE  
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the  
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve  
the true SNR performance of the AD9683. For applications where  
SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun coupling is  
the recommended input configuration (see Figure 46). In this  
configuration, the input is ac-coupled and the VCM voltage is  
provided to each input through a 33 Ω resistor. These resistors  
compensate for losses in the input baluns to provide a 50 Ω  
impedance to the driver.  
A stable and accurate voltage reference is built into the AD9683.  
The full-scale input range can be adjusted by varying the reference  
voltage via the SPI. The input span of the ADC tracks the reference  
voltage changes linearly.

CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS

The AD9683 has two options for deriving the input sampling clock:  
a differential Nyquist sampling clock input or an RF clock input  
(which is internally divided by 2 or 4). The clock input is selected in  
Address 0x09 and by default is configured for the Nyquist clock  
input. For optimum performance, clock the AD9683 Nyquist  
sample clock input, CLK+ and CLK−, with a differential signal.  
The signal is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins  
via a transformer or via capacitors. These pins are biased internally  
(see Figure 48) and require no external bias. If the clock inputs  
are floated, CLK− is pulled slightly lower than CLK+ to prevent  
spurious clocking.

The AD9683 Nyquist clock input supports a differential clock  
between 40 MHz to 625 MHz. The clock input structure supports  
differential input voltages from 0.3 V to 3.6 V and is, therefore,  
compatible with various logic family inputs, such as CMOS,  
LVDS, and LVPECL. A sine wave input is also accepted, but  
higher slew rates typically provide optimal performance. Clock  
source jitter is a critical parameter that can affect performance, as  
described in the Jitter Considerations section. If the inputs are  
floated, pull the CLK− pin low to prevent spurious clocking.

In some cases, it is desirable to buffer or generate multiple  
clocks from a single source. In those cases, Analog Devices, Inc.,  
offers clock drivers with excellent jitter performance. Figure 51  
shows a typical PECL driver circuit that uses PECL drivers such  
as the AD9510, AD9511, AD9512, AD9513, AD9514, AD9515,  
AD9516, AD9517, AD9518, AD9520, AD9522, AD9523, AD9524,  
and ADCLK905, ADCLK907, and ADCLK925.  
The Nyquist clock input pins, CLK+ and CLK−, are internally  
biased to 0.9 V and have a typical input impedance of 4 pF in  
parallel with 10 kΩ (see Figure 48). The input clock is typically  
ac-coupled to CLK+ and CLK−. Some typical clock drive circuits  
are presented in Figure 49 through Figure 52 for reference.

For applications where a single-ended low jitter clock between  
40 MHz to 200 MHz is available, an RF transformer is  
recommended. An example using an RF transformer in the clock  
network is shown in Figure 49. At frequencies above 200 MHz,  
an RF balun is recommended, as seen in Figure 50. The back-to-  
back Schottky diodes across the transformer secondary limit  
clock excursions into the AD9683 to approximately 0.8 V p-p  
differential. This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of  
the clock from feeding through to other portions of the AD9683,  
yet preserves the fast rise and fall times of the clock, which are  
critical to low jitter performance.

divide ratios can be selected using Address 0x09 and Address 0x0B.  
Address 0x09 is used to set the RF clock input, and Address 0x0B

the RF clock input and the Nyquist clock input. For divide ratios  
other than 1, the duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) is automatically  
enabled.  
The AD9683 RF clock input supports a single-ended clock  
between 625 MHz to 1.5 GHz. The equivalent RF clock input  
circuit is shown in Figure 53. The input is self biased to 0.9 V and is  
typically ac-coupled. The input has a typical input impedance of

The AD9683 clock divider can be synchronized using the external  
SYSREF input. Bit 1 and Bit 2 of Address 0x3A allow the clock  
divider to be resynchronized on every SYSREF signal or only on  
the first signal after the register is written. A valid SYSREF causes  
the clock divider to reset to its initial state. This synchronization  
feature allows multiple parts to have their clock dividers aligned to  
guarantee simultaneous input sampling.  
Figure 53. Equivalent RF Clock Input Circuit  
It is recommended that the RF clock input of the AD9683 be  
driven with a PECL or sine wave signal with a minimum signal  
amplitude of 600 mV p-p. Regardless of the type of signal being  
used, clock source jitter is of the most concern, as described in the  
Jitter Considerations section. Figure 54 shows the preferred method  
of clocking when using the RF clock input on the AD9683. It is  
recommended that a 50 Ω transmission line be used to route  
the clock signal to the RF clock input of the AD9683 due to the  
high frequency nature of the signal; terminate the transmission  
line close to the RF clock input.  
Clock Duty Cycle  
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a  
variety of internal timing signals and, as a result, may be sensitive to  
clock duty cycle. Commonly, a 5% tolerance is required on the  
clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance characteristics.  
The AD9683 contains a DCS that retimes the nonsampling (falling)  
edge, providing an internal clock signal with a nominal 50% duty  
cycle. This allows the user to provide a wide range of clock input  
duty cycles without affecting the performance of the AD9683.

Jitter on the rising edge of the input clock is still of paramount  
concern and is not reduced by the DCS. The duty cycle control  
loop does not function for clock rates of less than 40 MHz  
nominally. The loop has a time constant associated with it that  
must be considered when the clock rate can change dynamically.  
A wait time of 1.5 µs to 5 µs is required after a dynamic clock  
frequency increase or decrease before the DCS loop is relocked  
to the input signal. During the time that the loop is not locked,  
the DCS loop is bypassed, and the internal device timing is  
dependent on the duty cycle of the input clock signal. In such  
applications, it may be appropriate to disable the DCS. In all  
other applications, enabling the DCS circuit is recommended  
to maximize ac performance.  
Figure 54. Typical RF Clock Input Circuit  
Figure 56 shows the RF clock input of the AD9683 being driven  
from the LVPECL outputs of the AD9515. The differential LVPECL  
output signal from the AD9515 is converted to a single-ended  
signal using an RF balun or RF transformer. The RF balun  
configuration is recommended for clock frequencies associated  
with the RF clock input.  
Input Clock Divider  
The AD9683 contains an input clock divider with the ability to  
divide the Nyquist input clock by integer values between 1 and 8.  
The RF clock input uses an on-chip predivider to divide the clock  
input by four before it reaches the 1 to 8 divider. This allows  
higher input frequencies to be achieved on the RF clock input. The

By asserting PDWN (either through the SPI port or by asserting  
the PDWN pin high), the AD9683 is placed in power-down mode.  
In this state, the ADC typically dissipates about 9 mW. Asserting the  
PDWN pin low returns the AD9683 to its normal operating mode.

Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by  
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,  
and clock. Internal capacitors are discharged when entering power-  
down mode and then must be recharged when returning to normal  
operation. As a result, wake-up time is related to the time spent  
in power-down mode, and shorter power-down cycles result in  
proportionally shorter wake-up times.  
Treat the clock input as an analog signal in cases where aperture  
jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9683. Separate the  
power supplies for the clock drivers from the ADC output driver  
supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise.  
Low jitter, crystal controlled oscillators make the best clock sources.  
If the clock is generated from another type of source (by gating,  
dividing, or another method), retime it using the original clock at  
the last step.  
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC  
in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode allows  
the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when  
faster wake-up times are required. See the Memory Map Register  
Descriptions section and the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing  
to High Speed ADCs via SPI, for additional details.  
Refer to the AN-501 Application Note, Aperture Uncertainty and  
ADC System Performance, and the AN-756 Application Note,  
Sampled Systems and the Effects of Clock Phase Noise and Jitter, for  
more information about jitter performance as it relates to ADCs.

AD9683  
Data Sheet  
DIGITAL OUTPUTS  
Figure 59 shows a simplified block diagram of the AD9683  
JESD204B link. The AD9683 uses one converter and one lane.  
The converter data is output to SERDOUT0+/SERDOUT0−.  
JESD204B TRANSMIT TOP LEVEL DESCRIPTION  
The AD9683 digital output uses the JEDEC Standard No.  
JESD204B, Serial Interface for Data Converters. JESD204B is a  
protocol to link the AD9683 to a digital processing device over a  
serial interface of up to 5 Gbps link speeds. The benefits of the  
JESD204B interface include a reduction in required board area  
for data interface routing and the enabling of smaller packages  
for converter and logic devices. The AD9683 supports single  
lane interfaces.  
By default, in the AD9683, the 14-bit converter word is divided  
into two octets (eight bits of data). Bit 0 (MSB) through Bit 7 are  
in the first octet, and the second octet contains Bit 8 through Bit 13  
(LSB) and two tail bits. The tail bits can be configured as zeros, a  
pseudorandom number sequence, or control bits indicating  
overrange, underrange, or valid data conditions.  
The two resulting octets can be scrambled. Scrambling is  
optional; however, it is available to avoid spectral peaks when  
transmitting similar digital data patterns. The scrambler uses a  
self synchronizing, polynomial-based algorithm defined by the  
1 + x14 + x15 equation. The descrambler in the receiver should be  
a self-synchronizing version of the scrambler polynomial.  
JESD204B Overview  
The JESD204B data transmit block assembles the parallel data from  
the ADC into frames and uses 8B/10B encoding as well as optional  
scrambling to form serial output data. Lane synchronization is  
supported using special characters during the initial establishment  
of the link, and additional synchronization is embedded in the  
data stream thereafter. A matching external receiver is required  
to lock onto the serial data stream and recover the data and clock.  
For additional details on the JESD204B interface, refer to the  
JESD204B standard.  
The two octets are then encoded with an 8B/10B encoder. The  
8B/10B encoder works by taking eight bits of data (an octet) and  
encoding them into a 10-bit symbol. Figure 60 shows how the  
14-bit data is taken from the ADC, the tail bits are added, the two  
octets are scrambled, and how the octets are encoded into two  
10-bit symbols. Figure 60 illustrates the default data format.  
The AD9683 JESD204B transmit block maps the output of the  
ADC over a single link. The link is configured to use a single  
pair of serial differential outputs that is called a lane. The  
JESD204B specification refers to a number of parameters to  
define the link, and these parameters must match between the  
JESD204B transmitter (AD9683 output) and receiver.  
At the data link layer, in addition to the 8B/10B encoding, the  
character replacement is used to allow the receiver to monitor  
frame alignment. The character replacement process occurs on the  
frame and multiframe boundaries, and implementation depends  
on which boundary is occurring, and if scrambling is enabled.  
The JESD204B link is described according to the following  
parameters:  
If scrambling is disabled, the following applies:  
If the last scrambled octet of the last frame of the multiframe  
equals the last octet of the previous frame, the transmitter  
replaces the last octet with the control character /A/ =  
/K28.3/.  
On other frames within the multiframe, if the last octet in  
the frame equals the last octet of the previous frame, the  
transmitter replaces the last octet with the control  
character /F/ = /K28.7/.

M = number of converters per converter device  
(AD9683 value = 1)  
L = number of lanes per converter device  
(AD9683 value = 1)  
N = converter resolution (AD9683 value = 14)  
N’ = total number of bits per sample (AD9683 value = 16)  
CF = number of control words per frame clock cycle per  
converter device (AD9683 value = 0)  
CS = number of control bits/conversion sample  
(configurable on the AD9683 up to two bits)  
K = number of frames per multiframe (configurable on  
the AD9683)  
HD = high density mode (AD9683 value = 0)  
F = octets per frame (AD9683 value = 2)  
C = control bit (overrange, overflow, underflow; available  
on the AD9683)  
If scrambling is enabled, the following applies:  
If the last octet of the last frame of the multiframe equals  
0x7C, the transmitter replaces the last octet with the  
control character /A/ = /K28.3/.  
On other frames within the multiframe, if the last octet  
equals 0xFC, the transmitter replaces the last octet with the  
control character /F/ = /K28.7/.  
Refer to JEDEC Standard No. 204B, July 2011 for additional

JESD204B Synchronization Details  
If scrambling is enabled and the last octet of the multiframe is  
equal to 0x7C, or the last octet of a frame is equal to 0xFC.  
The AD9683 is a JESD204B Subclass 1 device that establishes  
synchronization of the link through two control signals, SYSREF  
and SYNC, and typically a common device clock. SYSREF and  
SYNC are common to all converter devices for alignment purposes  
at the system level.

The synchronization process is accomplished over three phases:  
code group synchronization (CGS), initial lane alignment sequence  
(ILAS), and data transmission. If scrambling is enabled, the bits are  
not actually scrambled until the data transmission phase, and  
the CGS phase and ILAS phase do not use scrambling.

CGS Phase  
In the CGS phase, the JESD204B transmit block transmits  
/K28.5/ characters. The receiver (external logic device) must  
locate /K28.5/ characters in its input data stream using clock  
and data recovery (CDR) techniques.

FCHK[7:0]  
When a certain number of consecutive /K28.5/ characters are  
detected on the link lane, the receiver initiates a SYSREF edge  
so that the AD9683 transmit data establishes a local multiframe  
clock (LMFC) internally.  
Link Setup Parameters  
The following sections demonstrate how to configure the AD9683  
JESD204B interface. The steps to configure the output include  
the following:  
1. Disable the lane before changing the configuration.  
2. Select a quick configuration option.  
3. Configure detailed options.  
4. Check FCHK, the checksum of the JESD204B interface  
parameters.  
5. Set additional digital output configuration options.  
6. Re-enable the lane.  
The SYSREF edge also resets any sampling edges within the ADC  
to align sampling instances to the LMFC. This is important to  
maintain synchronization across multiple devices.  
The receiver or logic device deasserts the SYNC signal  
(SYNCINB ), and the transmitter block begins the ILAS phase.  
ILAS Phase  
In the ILAS phase, the transmitter sends out a known pattern,  
and the receiver aligns the lanes in the link and verifies the  
parameters of the link.  
Disable Lane Before Changing Configuration  
Before modifying the JESD204B link parameters, disable the link  
and hold it in reset. This is accomplished by writing Logic 1 to  
Address 0x5F, Bit 0 .  
The ILAS phase begins after SYNC has been deasserted (goes  
high). The transmit block begins to transmit four multiframes.  
Dummy samples are inserted between the required characters  
so that full multiframes are transmitted. The four multiframes  
include the following:  
Configure Detailed Options  
Configure the tail bits and control bits as follows.  
With N’ = 16 and N = 14, there are two bits available per  
sample for transmitting additional information over the  
JESD204B link. The options are tail bits or control bits. By  
default, tail bits of 0b00 value are used.  
Tail bits are dummy bits sent over the link to complete the  
two octets and do not convey any information about the input  
signal. Tail bits can be fixed zeros (default) or pseudo-  
random numbers (Address 0x5F, Bit 6).  
One or two control bits can be used instead of the tail bits  
through Address 0x72, Bits[7:6]. The tail bits can be set  
using Address 0x14, Bits[7:5], and the tail bits can be  
enabled using Address 0x5F, Bit 6.  
Multiframe 1 begins with an /R/ character [K28.0] and  
ends with an /A/ character [K28.3].  
Multiframe 2 begins with an /R/ character followed by a /Q/  
[K28.4] character, followed by link configuration parameters  
over 14 configuration octets (see Table 10), and ends with  
an /A/ character.  
Multiframe 3 is the same as Multiframe 1.  
Multiframe 4 is the same as Multiframe 1.  
Data Transmission Phase  
In the data transmission phase, frame alignment is monitored  
with control characters. Character replacement is used at the  
end of frames. Character replacement in the transmitter occurs  
in the following instances:  
Set lane identification values.  
JESD204B allows parameters to identify the device and lane.  
These parameters are transmitted during the ILAS phase, and  
they are accessible in the internal registers.  
If scrambling is disabled and the last octet of the frame or  
multiframe equals the octet value of the previous frame.

AD9683  
Data Sheet  
Verify read only values: lanes per link (L), octets per frame (F),  
number of converters (M), and samples per converter per frame  
(S). The AD9683 calculates values for some JESD204B parameters  
based on other settings, particularly the quick configuration  
register selection. The read only values here are available in the  
register map for verification.  
There are three identification values: device identification  
(DID), bank identification (BID), and lane identification  
(LID). DID and BID are device specific; therefore, they can  
be used for link identification.  
Set the number of frames per multiframe, K.  
Per the JESD204B specification, a multiframe is defined as a  
group of K successive frames, where K is between 1 and 32,  
and it requires that the number of octets be between 17 and  
1024. The K value is set to 32 by default in Address 0x70,  
Bits[7:0]. Note that the K value is the register value plus 1.  
The K value can be changed; however, it must comply with  
a few conditions. The AD9683 uses a fixed value for octets  
per frame (F) based on the JESD204B quick configuration  
setting. K must also be a multiple of 4 and conform to the  
following equation:  
L = lanes per link is 1; read the values from Address 0x6E,  
Bits[4:0]  
F = octets per frame is 1, 2, or 4; read the value from  
Address 0x6F, Bits[7:0]  
HD = high density mode can be 0 or 1; read the value from  
Address 0x75, Bit 7  
M = number of converters per link is 1; read the value from  
Address 0x71, Bits[7:0]  
S = samples per converter per frame can be 1 or 2; read the  
value from Address 0x74, Bits[4:0]  
32 ≥ K Ceil (17/F)  
Check FCHK, Checksum of JESD204B Interface Parameters  
The JESD204B specification also requires the number of  
octets per multiframe (K × F) to be between 17 and 1024.  
The F value is fixed through the quick configuration  
setting to ensure that this relationship is true.  
The JESD204B parameters can be verified through the checksum  
value (FCHK) of the JESD204B interface parameters. Each lane has  
a FCHK value associated with it. The FCHK value is transmitted  
during the ILAS second multiframe and can be read from the  
internal registers.

protocol, scrambling is functional only after the lane  
synchronization has completed.

AD9683  
Data Sheet  
Frame and Lane Alignment Monitoring and Correction  
The AD9683 digital outputs can interface with custom ASICs and  
FPGA receivers, providing superior switching performance in  
noisy environments. Single point-to-point network topologies are  
recommended with a single differential 100 Ω termination resistor  
placed as close to the receiver logic as possible. The common mode  
of the digital output automatically biases itself to half the supply  
of the AD9683 (that is, the common-mode voltage is 0.9 V for a  
supply of 1.8 V) if a dc-coupled connection is used (see Figure 63).  
For a receiver logic that is not within the bounds of the DRVDD  
supply, use an ac-coupled connection. Simply place a 0.1 µF  
capacitor on each output pin and derive a 100 Ω differential  
termination close to the receiver side.  
Frame alignment monitoring and correction is part of the JESD204B  
specification. The 14-bit word requires two octets to transmit all  
the data. The two octets (MSB and LSB), where F = 2, make up  
a frame. During normal operating conditions, frame alignment  
is monitored via alignment characters, which are inserted under  
certain conditions at the end of a frame. Table 14 summarizes the  
conditions for character insertion along with the expected characters  
under the various operation modes. If lane synchronization is  
enabled, the replacement character value depends on whether  
the octet is at the end of a frame or at the end of a multiframe.  
Based on the operating mode, the receiver can ensure that it is  
still synchronized to the frame boundary by correctly receiving  
the replacement characters.

Digital Outputs and Timing

The AD9683 has differential digital outputs that power up by

current at each output equal to a nominal 3 mA. Each output  
presents a 100 Ω dynamic internal termination to reduce  
unwanted reflections.

Figure 63. DC-Coupled Digital Output Termination Example  
If there is no far-end receiver termination, or if there is poor  
differential trace routing, timing errors may result. To avoid  
such timing errors, it is recommended that the trace length be  
less than six inches, and that the differential output traces be  
close together and at equal lengths.  
Place a 100 Ω differential termination resistor at each receiver  
input to result in a nominal 600 mV p-p swing at the receiver  
(see Figure 62). Alternatively, single-ended 50 Ω termination  
can be used. When single-ended termination is used, the  
termination voltage must be DRVDD/2; otherwise, ac coupling  
capacitors can be used to terminate to any single-ended voltage.

ADC Overrange (OR)  
ADC OVERRANGE AND GAIN CONTROL  
The ADC overrange indicator is asserted when an overrange is  
detected on the input of the ADC. The overrange condition is  
determined at the output of the ADC pipeline and, therefore, is  
subject to a latency of 36 ADC clock cycles. An overrange at the  
input is indicated by this bit 36 clock cycles after it occurs.  
In receiver applications, it is desirable to have a mechanism to  
reliably determine when the converter is about to be clipped.  
The standard overflow indicator provides delayed information on  
the state of the analog input that is of limited value in preventing  
clipping. Therefore, it is helpful to have a programmable threshold  
below full scale that allows time to reduce the gain before the  
clip occurs. In addition, because input signals can have significant  
slew rates, latency of this function is of concern.  
Gain Switching  
The AD9683 includes circuitry that is useful in applications  
either where large dynamic ranges exist or where gain ranging  
amplifiers are employed. This circuitry allows digital thresholds  
to be set such that an upper threshold and a lower threshold can  
be programmed.  
Using the SPI port, the user can provide a threshold above which  
the FD output is active. Bit 0 of Address 0x45 enables the fast  
detect feature. Address 0x47 to Address 0x4A allow the user to  
set the threshold levels. As long as the signal is below the selected  
threshold, the FD output remains low. In this mode, the magnitude  
of the data is considered in the calculation of the condition, but  
the sign of the data is not considered. The threshold detection  
responds identically to positive and negative signals outside the  
desired range (magnitude).  
One such use is to detect when an ADC is about to reach full  
scale with a particular input condition. The result is to provide  
an indicator that can be used to quickly insert an attenuator that  
prevents ADC overdrive.

Fast Threshold Detection (FD)  
comparison is subject to the ADC pipeline latency but is  
accurate in terms of converter resolution. The lower threshold  
magnitude is defined by  
The FD indicator is asserted if the input magnitude exceeds the  
value programmed in the fast detect upper threshold registers,  
located in Address 0x47 and Address 0x48. The selected threshold  
register is compared with the signal magnitude at the output of  
the ADC. The fast upper threshold detection has a latency of  
seven clock cycles. The approximate upper threshold magnitude  
is defined by  
Lower Threshold Magnitude (dBFS) = 20 log (Threshold  
Magnitude/213)  
For example, to set an upper threshold of −6 dBFS, write  
0x0FFF to those registers, and to set a lower threshold of  
−10 dBFS, write 0x0A1D to those registers.  
Upper Threshold Magnitude (dBFS) = 20 log (Threshold  
Magnitude/213)  
The dwell time can be programmed from 1 to 65,535 sample  
clock cycles by placing the desired value in the fast detect dwell  
time registers, located in Address 0x4B and Address 0x4C.  
The FD indicators are not cleared until the signal drops below  
the lower threshold for the programmed dwell time. The lower  
threshold is programmed in the fast detect lower threshold  
registers, located at Address 0x49 and Address 0x4A. The fast  
detect lower threshold register is a 16-bit register that is compared  
with the signal magnitude at the output of the ADC. This  
The operation of the upper threshold and lower threshold registers,  
along with the dwell time registers, is shown in Figure 66.

DC CORRECTION (DCC)  
Because the dc offset of the ADC may be significantly larger than  
the signal being measured, a dc correction circuit is included to  
null the dc offset before measuring the power. The dc correction  
circuit can also be switched into the main signal path; however,  
this may not be appropriate if the ADC is digitizing a time-varying  
signal with significant dc content, such as GSM.  
DC CORRECTION READBACK  
The current dc correction value can be read back in Address 0x41  
and Address 0x42. The dc correction value is a 16-bit value that  
can span the entire input range of the ADC.  
DC CORRECTION FREEZE  
Setting Bit 6 of Address 0x40 freezes the dc correction at its  
current state and continues to use the last updated value as the  
dc correction value. Clearing this bit restarts dc correction and  
adds the currently calculated value to the data.  
DC CORRECTION BANDWIDTH  
The dc correction circuit is a high-pass filter with a programmable  
bandwidth (ranging between 0.29 Hz and 2.387 kHz at  
245.76 MSPS). The bandwidth is controlled by writing to  
the four dc correction bandwidth select bits, located at  
Address 0x40, Bits[5:2]. The following equation can be used  
to compute the bandwidth value for the dc correction circuit:  
DC CORRECTION ENABLE BITS  
Setting Bit 1 of Address 0x40 enables dc correction for use in  
the output data signal path.  
DC_Corr_BW = 2k−14 × fCLK/(2 × π)  
where:  
k is the 4-bit value programmed in Bits[5:2] of Address 0x40  
(values between 0 and 13 are valid for k).  
fCLK is the AD9683 ADC sample rate in hertz.

SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)  
The AD9683 SPI allows the user to configure the converter for  
specific functions or operations through a structured register  
space provided inside the ADC. The SPI gives the user added  
flexibility and customization, depending on the application.  
Addresses are accessed via the serial port and can be written to  
or read from via the port. Memory is organized into bytes that  
can be further divided into fields. These fields are documented  
in the Memory Map section. For detailed operational information,  
see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed  
ADCs via SPI.  
All data is composed of 8-bit words. The first bit of each individual  
byte of serial data indicates whether a read or write command is  
issued. This allows the SDIO pin to change direction from an  
input to an output.  
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines  
whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing  
the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to read  
the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback  
operation, performing a readback causes the SDIO pin to change  
direction from an input to an output at the appropriate point in  
the serial frame.  
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI  
Data can be sent in MSB first mode or in LSB first mode. MSB  
first is the default on power-up and can be changed via the SPI  
port configuration register. For more information about this and  
other features, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to  
High Speed ADCs via SPI.  
Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK pin, the SDIO  
CS  
pin, and the  
pin (see Table 15). The SCLK (serial clock) pin is  
used to synchronize the read and write data presented from/to the  
ADC. The SDIO (serial data input/output) pin is a dual-purpose  
pin that allows data to be sent to and read from the internal ADC  
CS  
memory map registers. The  
(chip select bar) pin is an active

MEMORY MAP  
Default Values  
READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE  
After the AD9683 is reset, critical registers are loaded with default  
values. The default values for the registers are given in the memory  
map register table (see Table 17).  
Each row in the memory map register table has eight bit locations.  
The memory map is roughly divided into three sections: the  
chip configuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02);  
the ADC functions registers, including setup, control, and test  
(Address 0x08 to Address 0xA8); and the device update register  
(Address 0xFF).  
Logic Levels  
An explanation of logic level terminology follows:  
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or  
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.”  
The memory map register table (see Table 17) documents the  
default hexadecimal value for each hexadecimal address shown.  
The column with the heading Bit 7 (MSB) is the start of the default  
hexadecimal value given. For example, Address 0x14, the output  
mode register, has a hexadecimal default value of 0x01. This means  
that Bit 0 = 1, and the remaining bits are 0s. This setting is the  
default output format value, which is twos complement. For  
more information on this function and others, see the AN-877  
Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This  
application note details the functions controlled by Address 0x00  
to Address 0x21 and Address 0xFF, with the exception of  
Address 0x08 and Address 0x14. The remaining registers,  
Address 0x08, Address 0x14, and Address 0x3A through  
Address 0xA8, are documented in the Memory Map Register  
Descriptions section.  
“Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or  
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.”  
Transfer Register Map  
Address 0x09, Address 0x0B, Address 0x14, Address 0x18, and  
Address 0x3A to Address 0x4C are shadowed. Writes to these  
addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer command  
is issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the transfer  
bit. This allows these registers to be updated internally and  
simultaneously when the transfer bit is set. The internal update  
takes place when the transfer bit is set, and then the bit autoclears.  
Open and Reserved Locations  
All address and bit locations that are not included in Table 17  
are not currently supported for this device. Write unused bits of  
a valid address location with 0s. Writing to these locations is  
required only when part of an address location is open (for  
example, Address 0x18). If the entire address location is open  
(for example, Address 0x13), do not write to this address location.

Bit 4—JESD204B standby mode  
Bit 1—SYSREF enable  
This bit controls the state of the JESD204B digital circuitry when  
the external PDWN pin is used to place the device into standby.  
If this bit is 0, the JES204B digital circuitry is not placed into  
standby. When this bit is 1, the JESD204B circuitry is placed  
into standby when the PDWN pin is asserted and Bit 5 is 1.  
When this bit is set low, the SYSREF input is disabled. When  
this bit is high, the SYSREF input is enabled.  
Bit 0—Enable SYNCINB buffer  
When this bit is set low, the SYNCINB input buffer is disabled.  
When this bit is high, the SYNCINB input buffer is enabled.  
Bits[3:2]—JESD204B power modes  
DC Correction Control (Address 0x40)  
Bit 7—Reserved  
Bit 6—Freeze dc correction  
These bits control the power modes of the JESD204B digital  
circuitry. When Bits[3:2] = 00, the JESD204B digital circuitry  
is in normal mode. When Bits[3:2] = 01, the JESD204B digital  
circuitry is in power-down mode with the PLL off, serializer off,  
clocks stopped, and the digital circuitry held in reset. When  
Bits[3:2] = 10 the JESD204B digital circuitry is placed into standby  
mode with the PLL on, serializer off, clocks stopped, and the  
digital circuitry held in reset.  
When Bit 6 is set low, the dc correction is continuously calculated.  
When Bit 6 is set high, the dc correction is no longer updated to  
the signal monitor block, which holds the last dc value calculated.  
Bits[5:2]—DC correction bandwidth select  
Bits[5:2] set the averaging time of the signal monitor dc correction  
function. This 4-bit word sets the bandwidth of the correction  
block, according to the following equation:  
Bits[1:0]—ADC power modes  
These bits select power mode for the ADC excluding the  
JESD204B digital circuitry. When Bits[1:0] = 00, the ADC is in  
normal mode. When Bits[1:0] = 01, the ADC is placed into  
power-down mode, and when Bits[1:0] = 10, the ADC is placed  
into standby mode.

Bit 4—ADC output disable  
Setting this bit high causes the output of the dc measurement  
block to be summed with the data in the signal path to remove  
the dc offset from the signal path.  
If this bit is set, the output data from the ADC is disabled.

overrange indicator.  
Bit 3—JESD204B realign SYSREF  
Bit 3—Force FD output enable  
When this bit is set low, the JESD204B link operates in normal

every active SYSREF assertion.  
Setting this bit high forces the FD output pin to the value written to  
Bit 2 of this register (Address 0x45). This enables the user to  
force a known value on the FD pin for debugging.  
Bit 2—SYSREF mode  
Bit 2—Forced FD Output Value  
When this bit is set low, the clock dividers are continuously

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
The copper plane should have several vias to achieve the lowest  
possible resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to flow through  
the bottom of the PCB. Fill or plug these with nonconductive  
epoxy.  
DESIGN GUIDELINES  
Before starting system level design and layout of the AD9683, it  
is recommended that the designer become familiar with these  
guidelines, which describe the special circuit connections and  
layout requirements needed for certain pins.  
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and  
the PCB, overlay a silkscreen to partition the continuous plane  
on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie  
points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow process.  
Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees only  
one tie point between the ADC and the PCB. See the evaluation  
board for a PCB layout example. For detailed information about  
the packaging and PCB layout of chip scale packages, refer to  
the AN-772 Application Note, A Design and Manufacturing  
Guide for the Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP).  
Power and Ground Recommendations  
When connecting power to the AD9683, it is recommended that  
two separate 1.8 V power supplies be used. The power supply for  
AVDD can be isolated, and the power supply for DVDD and  
DRVDD can be tied together, in which case, an isolation inductor  
of approximately 1 µH is recommended. Alternativly, the  
JESD204B PHY power (DRVDD) and analog (AVDD) supplies  
can be tied together, and a separate supply can be used for the  
digital outputs (DVDD).  
VCM  
The designer can employ several different decoupling capacitors  
to cover both high and low frequencies. Place these capacitors  
close to the point of entry at the PCB level and close to the pins  
of the part with minimal trace length.  
Decouple the VCM pin to ground with 0.1 µF capacitors, as shown  
in Figure 45. It is recommended to place one 0.1 µF capacitor as  
close as possible to the VCM pin and another at the VCM  
connection to the analog input network.  
When using the AD9683, a single PCB ground plane is sufficient.  
With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the PCB analog,  
digital, and clock sections, optimum performance is easily  
achieved.  
SPI Port  
Do not activate the SPI port during periods when the full dynamic  
performance of the converter is required. Because the SCLK,  
CS  
,
and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the ADC clock,  
noise from these signals can degrade converter performance. If the  
on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, it may be necessary  
to provide buffers between this bus and the AD9683 to keep  
these signals from transitioning at the converter input pins during  
critical sampling periods.  
Exposed Pad Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations  
It is mandatory that the exposed pad on the underside of the  
ADC be connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the  
best electrical and thermal performance. Mate a continuous,  
exposed (no solder mask) copper plane on the PCB to the  
AD9683 exposed pad.
