Differential current outputs are provided to support single-
ended or differential applications. Matching between the two
current outputs ensures enhanced dynamic performance in a
differential output configuration. The current outputs may be
tied directly to an output resistor to provide two complemen-
tary, single-ended voltage outputs or fed directly into a trans-
former. The output voltage compliance range is 1.25 V.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD9762 is the 12-bit resolution member of the TxDAC
series of high performance, low power CMOS digital-to-analog
converters (DACs). The TxDAC family which consists of pin
compatible 8-, 10-, 12-, and 14-bit DACs is specifically opti-
mized for the transmit signal path of communication systems.
All of the devices share the same interface options, small outline
package and pinout, thus providing an upward or downward
component selection path based on performance, resolution and
cost. The AD9762 offers exceptional ac and dc performance
while supporting update rates up to 125 MSPS.
The on-chip reference and control amplifier are configured for
maximum accuracy and flexibility. The AD9762 can be driven
by the on-chip reference or by a variety of external reference
voltages. The internal control amplifier which provides a wide
(>10:1) adjustment span allows the AD9762 full-scale current
to be adjusted over a 2 mA to 20 mA range while maintaining
excellent dynamic performance. Thus, the AD9762 may oper-
ate at reduced power levels or be adjusted over a 20 dB range to
provide additional gain ranging capabilities.
The AD9762’s flexible single-supply operating range of 2.7 V to
5.5 V and low power dissipation are well suited for portable and
low power applications. Its power dissipation can be further
reduced to a mere 45 mW without a significant degradation in
performance by lowering the full-scale current output. Also, a
power-down mode reduces the standby power dissipation to
approximately 25 mW.
The AD9762 is available in 28-lead SOIC and TSSOP pack-
ages. It is specified for operation over the industrial tempera-
ture range.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD9762 is a member of the TxDAC product family which
provides an upward or downward component selection path
based on resolution (8 to 14 bits), performance and cost.
2. Manufactured on a CMOS process, the AD9762 uses a pro-
prietary switching technique that enhances dynamic perfor-
mance beyond what was previously attainable by higher
power/cost bipolar or BiCMOS devices.
3. On-chip, edge-triggered input CMOS latches interface readily
to +3 V and +5 V CMOS logic families. The AD9762 can
support update rates up to 125 MSPS.
4. A flexible single-supply operating range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and
a wide full-scale current adjustment span of 2 mA to 20 mA
allow the AD9762 to operate at reduced power levels.
The AD9762 is manufactured on an advanced CMOS process.
A segmented current source architecture is combined with a
proprietary switching technique to reduce spurious components
and enhance dynamic performance. Edge-triggered input
latches and a 1.2 V temperature compensated bandgap refer-
ence have been integrated to provide a complete monolithic
DAC solution. Flexible supply options support +3 V and +5 V
CMOS logic families.
The AD9762 is a current-output DAC with a nominal full-scale
output current of 20 mA and > 100 kΩ output impedance.

device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum
ratings for extended periods may effect device reliability.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the AD9762 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
Power Supply Rejection
Linearity Error (Also Called Integral Nonlinearity or INL)
Linearity error is defined as the maximum deviation of the
actual analog output from the ideal output, determined by a
straight line drawn from zero to full scale.
The maximum change in the full-scale output as the supplies
are varied from nominal to minimum and maximum specified
voltages.
Settling Time
Differential Nonlinearity (or DNL)
The time required for the output to reach and remain within a
specified error band about its final value, measured from the
start of the output transition.
DNL is the measure of the variation in analog value, normalized
to full scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input
code.
Glitch Impulse
Monotonicity
Asymmetrical switching times in a DAC give rise to undesired
output transients that are quantified by a glitch impulse. It is
specified as the net area of the glitch in pV-s.
A D/A converter is monotonic if the output either increases or
remains constant as the digital input increases.
Offset Error
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
The deviation of the output current from the ideal of zero is
called offset error. For IOUTA, 0 mA output is expected when the
inputs are all 0s. For IOUTB, 0 mA output is expected when all
inputs are set to 1s.
The difference, in dB, between the rms amplitude of the output
signal and the peak spurious signal over the specified bandwidth.
Total Harmonic Distortion
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic
components to the rms value of the measured output signal. It is
expressed as a percentage or in decibels (dB).
Gain Error
The difference between the actual and ideal output span. The
actual span is determined by the output when all inputs are set
to 1s minus the output when all inputs are set to 0s.
Multitone Power Ratio
The spurious-free dynamic range for an output containing mul-
tiple carrier tones of equal amplitude. It is measured as the
difference between the rms amplitude of a carrier tone to the
peak spurious signal in the region of a removed tone.
Output Compliance Range
The range of allowable voltage at the output of a current-output
DAC. Operation beyond the maximum compliance limits may
cause either output stage saturation or breakdown resulting in
nonlinear performance.
Temperature Drift
Temperature drift is specified as the maximum change from the
ambient (+25°C) value to the value at either TMIN or TMAX. For
offset and gain drift, the drift is reported in ppm of full-scale
range (FSR) per degree C. For reference drift, the drift is
reported in ppm per degree C.

AD9762
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
I
I
OUTA = (DAC CODE/4096) × IOUTFS
(1)
(2)
Figure 39 shows a simplified block diagram of the AD9762.
The AD9762 consists of a large PMOS current source array
that is capable of providing up to 20 mA of total current. The
array is divided into 31 equal currents that make up the 5
most significant bits (MSBs). The next 4 bits or middle bits
consist of 15 equal current sources whose value is 1/16th of an
MSB current source. The remaining LSBs are binary weighted
fractions of the middle-bits current sources. Implementing
the middle and lower bits with current sources, instead of an
R-2R ladder, enhances its dynamic performance for multitone
or low amplitude signals and helps maintain the DAC’s high
output impedance (i.e., >100 kΩ).
OUTB = (4095 – DAC CODE)/4096 × IOUTFS
where DAC CODE = 0 to 4095 (i.e., Decimal Representation).
As mentioned previously, IOUTFS is a function of the reference
current IREF, which is nominally set by a reference voltage
REFIO and external resistor RSET. It can be expressed as:
V
I
OUTFS = 32 × IREF
(3)
(4)
where IREF = VREFIO/RSET
The two current outputs will typically drive a resistive load
directly or via a transformer. If dc coupling is required, IOUTA
and IOUTB should be directly connected to matching resistive
loads, RLOAD, which are tied to analog common, ACOM. Note,
All of these current sources are switched to one or the other
of the two output nodes (i.e., IOUTA or IOUTB) via PMOS differen-
tial current switches. The switches are based on a new archi-
tecture that drastically improves distortion performance. This new
switch architecture reduces various timing errors and provides
matching complementary drive signals to the inputs of the
differential current switches.
R
LOAD may represent the equivalent load resistance seen by
IOUTA or IOUTB as would be the case in a doubly terminated
50 Ω or 75 Ω cable. The single-ended voltage output appearing
at the IOUTA and IOUTB nodes is simply :
V
OUTA = IOUTA × RLOAD
OUTB = IOUTB × RLOAD
(5)
(6)
V
The analog and digital sections of the AD9762 have separate
power supply inputs (i.e., AVDD and DVDD) that can operate
independently over a 2.7 volt to 5.5 volt range. The digital
section, which is capable of operating up to a 125 MSPS clock
rate, consists of edge-triggered latches and segment decoding
logic circuitry. The analog section includes the PMOS current
sources, the associated differential switches, a 1.20 V bandgap
voltage reference and a reference control amplifier.
Note the full-scale value of VOUTA and VOUTB should not exceed
the specified output compliance range to maintain specified
distortion and linearity performance.
The differential voltage, VDIFF, appearing across IOUTA and
OUTB is:
I
V
DIFF = (IOUTA – IOUTB) × RLOAD
(7)
Substituting the values of IOUTA, IOUTB, and IREF; VDIFF can be
expressed as:
The full-scale output current is regulated by the reference
control amplifier and can be set from 2 mA to 20 mA via an
external resistor, RSET. The external resistor, in combination
with both the reference control amplifier and voltage refer-
ence VREFIO, sets the reference current IREF, which is mirrored
over to the segmented current sources with the proper scaling
factor. The full-scale current, IOUTFS, is thirty-two times the value
V
DIFF = {(2 DAC CODE – 4095)/4096} ×
(32 RLOAD/RSET) × VREFIO
(8)
These last two equations highlight some of the advantages of
operating the AD9762 differentially. First, the differential
operation will help cancel common-mode error sources associated
with IOUTA and IOUTB such as noise, distortion and dc offsets.
Second, the differential code dependent current and subsequent
voltage, VDIFF, is twice the value of the single-ended voltage
output (i.e., VOUTA or VOUTB), thus providing twice the signal
power to the load.

DAC TRANSFER FUNCTION
The AD9762 provides complementary current outputs, IOUTA
and IOUTB. IOUTA will provide a near full-scale current output,

Note, the gain drift temperature performance for a single-ended
(VOUTA and VOUTB) or differential output (VDIFF) of the AD9762
can be enhanced by selecting temperature tracking resistors for
IOUTB, the complementary output, provides no current. The
current output appearing at IOUTA and IOUTB is a function of
both the input code and IOUTFS and can be expressed as:

AD9762
REFERENCE OPERATION
The control amplifier allows a wide (10:1) adjustment span of
IOUTFS over a 2 mA to 20 mA range by setting IREF between
62.5 µA and 625 µA. The wide adjustment span of IOUTFS
provides several application benefits. The first benefit relates
directly to the power dissipation of the AD9762, which is
proportional to IOUTFS (refer to the Power Dissipation section).
The second benefit relates to the 20 dB adjustment, which is
useful for system gain control purposes.
The AD9762 contains an internal 1.20 V bandgap reference
that can be easily disabled and overridden by an external refer-
ence. REFIO serves as either an input or output depending on
whether the internal or an external reference is selected. If
REFLO is tied to ACOM, as shown in Figure 40, the internal
reference is activated and REFIO provides a 1.20 V output. In
this case, the internal reference must be compensated externally
with a ceramic chip capacitor of 0.1 µF or greater from REFIO
to REFLO. Also, REFIO should be buffered with an external
amplifier having an input bias current less than 100 nA if any
additional loading is required.
The small signal bandwidth of the reference control amplifier is
approximately 1.4 MHz and can be reduced by connecting an
external capacitor between COMP1 and AVDD. The output of
the control amplifier, COMP1, is internally compensated via a
50 pF capacitor that limits the control amplifier small-signal
bandwidth and reduces its output impedance. Any additional
external capacitance further limits the bandwidth and acts as a
filter to reduce the noise contribution from the reference ampli-
fier. Figure 42 shows the relationship between the external
capacitor and the small signal –3 dB bandwidth of the

The internal reference can be disabled by connecting REFLO to
AVDD. In this case, an external reference may then be applied
to REFIO as shown in Figure 41. The external reference may
provide either a fixed reference voltage to enhance accuracy and
drift performance or a varying reference voltage for gain control.
Note that the 0.1 µF compensation capacitor is not required
since the internal reference is disabled, and the high input
impedance (i.e., 1 MΩ) of REFIO minimizes any loading of the
external reference.

The optimum distortion performance for any reconstructed
waveform is obtained with a 0.1 µF external capacitor installed.
Thus, if IREF is fixed for an application, a 0.1 µF ceramic chip
capacitor is recommended. Also, since the control amplifier is
optimized for low power operation, multiplying applications
requiring large signal swings should consider using an external
control amplifier to enhance the application’s overall large signal
multiplying bandwidth and/or distortion performance.

The AD9762 also contains an internal control amplifier that is
RSET. The first method is suitable for a single-supply system in
which the internal reference is disabled, and the common-mode
voltage of REFIO is varied over its compliance range of 1.25 V
to 0.10 V. REFIO can be driven by a single-supply amplifier or
DAC, thus allowing IREF to be varied for a fixed RSET. Since the
input impedance of REFIO is approximately 1 MΩ, a simple,
low cost R-2R ladder DAC configured in the voltage mode
topology may be used to control the gain. This circuit is shown
in Figure 43 using the AD7524 and an external 1.2 V reference,
the AD1580.

.
The control amplifier is configured as a V-I converter as shown
in Figure 41, such that its current output, IREF, is determined by
the ratio of the VREFIO and an external resistor, RSET, as stated
in Equation 4. IREF is copied over to the segmented current
sources with the proper scaling factor to set IOUTFS as stated in
Equation 3.

The second method may be used in a dual-supply system in
which the common-mode voltage of REFIO is fixed and IREF is
varied by an external voltage, VGC, applied to RSET via an ampli-
fier. An example of this method is shown in Figure 44 in which
the internal reference is used to set the common-mode voltage
of the control amplifier to 1.20 V. The external voltage, VGC, is
referenced to ACOM and should not exceed 1.2 V. The value
of RSET is such that IREFMAX and IREFMIN do not exceed 62.5 µA
and 625 µA, respectively. The associated equations in Figure 44

The AD9762 produces two complementary current outputs,
OUTA and IOUTB, which may be configured for single-ended or

differential operation. IOUTA and IOUTB can be converted into
complementary single-ended voltage outputs, VOUTA and VOUTB
via a load resistor, RLOAD, as described in the DAC Transfer
Function section by Equations 5 through 8. The differential
voltage, VDIFF, existing between VOUTA and VOUTB can also be
converted to a single-ended voltage via a transformer or differ-
ential amplifier configuration. The ac performance of the
AD9762 is optimum and specified using a differential trans-

The distortion and noise performance of the AD9762 can be
+1.2V REF
enhanced when the AD9762 is configured for differential opera-
tion. The common-mode error sources of both IOUTA and IOUTB
can be significantly reduced by the common-mode rejection of a
transformer or differential amplifier. These common-mode
error sources include even-order distortion products and noise.
The enhancement in distortion performance becomes more
significant as the frequency content of the reconstructed wave-
form increases. This is due to the first order cancellation of
various dynamic common-mode distortion mechanisms, digital
feedthrough and noise.

In some applications, the user may elect to use an external con-
trol amplifier to enhance the multiplying bandwidth, distortion
performance, and/or settling time. External amplifiers capable
of driving a 50 pF load such as the AD817 are suitable for this
purpose. It is configured in such a way that it is in parallel with
the weaker internal reference amplifier as shown in Figure 45.
In this case, the external amplifier simply overdrives the weaker
reference control amplifier. Also, since the internal control
amplifier has a limited current output, it will sustain no damage
if overdriven.
Performing a differential-to-single-ended conversion via a
transformer also provides the ability to deliver twice the recon-
structed signal power to the load (i.e., assuming no source
termination). Since the output currents of IOUTA and IOUTB are
complementary, they become additive when processed differen-
tially. A properly selected transformer will allow the AD9762 to
provide the required power and voltage levels to different loads.
Refer to Applying the AD9762 section for examples of various
output configurations.
EXTERNAL
The output impedance of IOUTA and IOUTB is determined by the
equivalent parallel combination of the PMOS switches associ-
ated with the current sources and is typically 100 kΩ in parallel
with 5 pF. It is also slightly dependent on the output voltage
(i.e., VOUTA and VOUTB) due to the nature of a PMOS device.
As a result, maintaining IOUTA and/or IOUTB at a virtual ground
via an I-V op amp configuration will result in the optimum dc
linearity. Note, the INL/DNL specifications for the AD9762
are measured with IOUTA maintained at a virtual ground via an
op amp.

IOUTA and IOUTB also have a negative and positive voltage
compliance range that must be adhered to in order to achieve
optimum performance. The negative output compliance range
of –1.0 V is set by the breakdown limits of the CMOS process.
Operation beyond this maximum limit may result in a break-
down of the output stage and affect the reliability of the AD9762.
Since the AD9762 is capable of being updated up to 125 MSPS,
the quality of the clock and data input signals are important
in achieving the optimum performance. The drivers of the
digital data interface circuitry should be specified to meet the
minimum set-up and hold times of the AD9762 as well as its
required min/max input logic level thresholds. Typically, the
selection of the slowest logic family that satisfies the above
conditions will result in the lowest data feedthrough and noise.
The positive output compliance range is slightly dependent
on the full-scale output current, IOUTFS. It degrades slightly
from its nominal 1.25 V for an IOUTFS = 20 mA to 1.00 V for an
Digital signal paths should be kept short and run lengths
matched to avoid propagation delay mismatch. The insertion of
a low value resistor network (i.e., 20 Ω to 100 Ω) between the
AD9762 digital inputs and driver outputs may be helpful in
reducing any overshooting and ringing at the digital inputs that
contribute to data feedthrough. For longer run lengths and high
data update rates, strip line techniques with proper termination
resistors should be considered to maintain “clean” digital
inputs. Also, operating the AD9762 with reduced logic swings
and a corresponding digital supply (DVDD) will also reduce
data feedthrough.
I
OUTFS = 2 mA. The optimum distortion performance for a
single-ended or differential output is achieved when the maximum
full-scale signal at IOUTA and IOUTB does not exceed 0.5 V.
Applications requiring the AD9762’s output (i.e., VOUTA and/
or VOUTB) to extend its output compliance range should size
RLOAD accordingly. Operation beyond this compliance range
will adversely affect the AD9762’s linearity performance and
subsequently degrade its distortion performance.
DIGITAL INPUTS
The AD9762’s digital input consists of 12 data input pins and a
clock input pin. The 12-bit parallel data inputs follow standard
positive binary coding where DB11 is the most significant bit
(MSB) and DB0 is the least significant bit (LSB). IOUTA produces
a full-scale output current when all data bits are at Logic 1.
The external clock driver circuitry should provide the AD9762
with a low jitter clock input meeting the min/max logic levels
while providing fast edges. Fast clock edges will help minimize
any jitter that will manifest itself as phase noise on a recon-
structed waveform. Thus, the clock input should be driven by
the fastest logic family suitable for the application.
I
OUTB produces a complementary output with the full-scale current
split between the two outputs as a function of the input code.
Note, the clock input could also be driven via a sine wave,
which is centered around the digital threshold (i.e., DVDD/2),
and meets the min/max logic threshold. This will typically result
in a slight degradation in the phase noise, which becomes more
noticeable at higher sampling rates and output frequencies.
Also, at higher sampling rates, the 20% tolerance of the digital
logic threshold should be considered since it will affect the
effective clock duty cycle and subsequently cut into the required
data set-up and hold times.
The digital interface is implemented using an edge-triggered
master slave latch. The DAC output is updated following the
rising edge of the clock as shown in Figure 1 and is designed
to support a clock rate as high as 125 MSPS. The clock can
be operated at any duty cycle that meets the specified latch
pulsewidth. The set-up and hold times can also be varied within
the clock cycle as long as the specified minimum times are met;
although the location of these transition edges may affect digital
feedthrough and distortion performance. Best performance is
typically achieved when the input data transitions on the falling edge
of a 50% duty cycle clock.
SLEEP MODE OPERATION
The AD9762 has a power-down function which turns off the
output current and reduces the supply current to less than
8.5 mA over the specified supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and
temperature range. This mode can be activated by applying
a logic level “1” to the SLEEP pin. This digital input also
contains an active pull-down circuit that ensures the AD9762
remains enabled if this input is left disconnected. The SLEEP
input with active pull-down requires <40 µA of drive current.
The digital inputs are CMOS compatible with logic thresholds,
V
THRESHOLD set to approximately half the digital positive supply
(DVDD) or
VTHRESHOLD = DVDD/2 ( 20%)
The internal digital circuitry of the AD9762 is capable of operating
over a digital supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V. As a result, the
digital inputs can also accommodate TTL levels when DVDD is
set to accommodate the maximum high level voltage of the TTL
drivers VOH(MAX). A DVDD of 3 V to 3.3 V will typically ensure
proper compatibility with most TTL logic families. Figure 46
shows the equivalent digital input circuit for the data and clock
inputs. The sleep mode input is similar with the exception that
it contains an active pull-down circuit, thus ensuring that the
AD9762 remains enabled if this input is left disconnected.
The power-up and power-down characteristics of the AD9762
are dependent upon the value of the compensation capacitor
connected to COMP1. With a nominal value of 0.1 µF, the
AD9762 takes less than 5 µs to power down and approximately
3.25 ms to power back up. Note, the SLEEP MODE should not
be used when the external control amplifier is used as shown in
Figure 45.

POWER DISSIPATION

APPLYING THE AD9762
OUTPUT CONFIGURATIONS
The following sections illustrate some typical output configura-
tions for the AD9762. Unless otherwise noted, it is assumed
that IOUTFS is set to a nominal 20 mA. For applications requir-
ing the optimum dynamic performance, a differential output
configuration is suggested. A differential output configuration
may consist of either an RF transformer or a differential op amp
configuration. The transformer configuration provides the
optimum high frequency performance and is recommended for
any application allowing for ac coupling. The differential op
amp configuration is suitable for applications requiring dc
coupling, a bipolar output, signal gain and/or level shifting.

A single-ended output is suitable for applications requiring a
unipolar voltage output. A positive unipolar output voltage will
result if IOUTA and/or IOUTB is connected to an appropriately
sized load resistor, RLOAD, referred to ACOM. This configura-
tion may be more suitable for a single-supply system requiring
a dc coupled, ground referred output voltage. Alternatively, an
amplifier could be configured as an I-V converter thus converting
IOUTA or IOUTB into a negative unipolar voltage. This configura-
tion provides the best dc linearity since IOUTA or IOUTB is
maintained at a virtual ground. Note, IOUTA provides slightly

Conversely, IDVDD is dependent on both the digital input wave-
form, fCLOCK, and digital supply DVDD. Figures 48 and 49
show IDVDD as a function of full-scale sine wave output ratios
(fOUT/fCLOCK) for various update rates with DVDD = 5 V and
DVDD = 3 V, respectively. Note, how IDVDD is reduced by more
than a factor of 2 when DVDD is reduced from 5 V to 3 V.

DIFFERENTIAL COUPLING USING A TRANSFORMER
An RF transformer can be used to perform a differential-to-
single-ended signal conversion as shown in Figure 50. A
differentially coupled transformer output provides the optimum
distortion performance for output signals whose spectral content
lies within the transformer’s passband. An RF transformer such
as the Mini-Circuits T1-1T provides excellent rejection of
common-mode distortion (i.e., even-order harmonics) and noise
over a wide frequency range. It also provides electrical isolation
and the ability to deliver twice the power to the load. Trans-
formers with different impedance ratios may also be used for
impedance matching purposes. Note that the transformer
provides ac coupling only.

DIFFERENTIAL USING AN OP AMP
this mode is the integral nonlinearity (INL) as discussed in the
Analog Output section of this data sheet. For optimum INL
performance, the single-ended, buffered voltage output configu-
ration is suggested.
An op amp can also be used to perform a differential to single-
ended conversion as shown in Figure 51. The AD9762 is
configured with two equal load resistors, RLOAD, of 25 Ω.
The differential voltage developed across IOUTA and IOUTB is
converted to a single-ended signal via the differential op amp
configuration. An optional capacitor can be installed across
IOUTA and IOUTB forming a real pole in a low-pass filter. The
addition of this capacitor also enhances the op amps distortion
performance by preventing the DACs high slewing output from
overloading the op amp’s input.

Figure 54 shows a buffered single-ended output configuration
in which the op amp U1 performs an I-V conversion on the
AD9762 output current. U1 maintains IOUTA (or IOUTB) at a
virtual ground, thus minimizing the nonlinear output imped-
ance effect on the DAC’s INL performance as discussed in
the Analog Output section. Although this single-ended configu-
ration typically provides the best dc linearity performance, its ac
distortion performance at higher DAC update rates may be
limited by U1’s slewing capabilities. U1 provides a negative
unipolar output voltage and its full-scale output voltage is sim-
ply the product of RFB and IOUTFS. The full-scale output should
be set within U1’s voltage output swing capabilities by scaling
IOUTFS and/or RFB. An improvement in ac distortion perfor-
mance may result with a reduced IOUTFS since the signal current
U1 will be required to sink will be subsequently reduced.

The common-mode rejection of this configuration is typically
determined by the resistor matching. In this circuit, the differ-
ential op amp circuit using the AD8047 is configured to provide
some additional signal gain. The op amp must operate off of a
dual supply since its output is approximately 1.0 V. A high
speed amplifier capable of preserving the differential perfor-
mance of the AD9762 while meeting other system level objec-
tives (i.e., cost, power) should be selected. The op amps
differential gain, its gain setting resistor values, and full-scale

The differential circuit shown in Figure 52 provides the neces-

case, AVDD which is the positive analog supply for both the

ential output of the AD9762 to midsupply (i.e., AVDD/2). The
AD8041 is a suitable op amp for this application.

Figure 53 shows the AD9762 configured to provide a unipolar
output range of approximately 0 V to +0.5 V for a doubly termi-
nated 50 Ω cable since the nominal full-scale current, IOUTFS, of
20 mA flows through the equivalent RLOAD of 25 Ω. In this
case, RLOAD represents the equivalent load resistance seen by
IOUTA or IOUTB. The unused output (IOUTA or IOUTB) can be
connected to ACOM directly or via a matching RLOAD. Different
values of IOUTFS and RLOAD can be selected as long as the positive
compliance range is adhered to. One additional consideration in
Proper grounding and decoupling should be a primary objective
in any high speed, high resolution system. The AD9762 features
separate analog and digital supply and ground pins to optimize
the management of analog and digital ground currents in a
system. In general, AVDD, the analog supply, should be decoupled
to ACOM, the analog common, as close to the chip as physi-
cally possible. Similarly, DVDD, the digital supply, should be
decoupled to DCOM as close as physically as possible.

For those applications that require a single +5 V or +3 V supply
for both the analog and digital supply, a clean analog supply
may be generated using the circuit shown in Figure 55. The
circuit consists of a differential LC filter with separate power
supply and return lines. Lower noise can be attained using low
ESR type electrolytic and tantalum capacitors.
APPLICATIONS
Using the AD9762 for QAM Modulation
QAM is one of the most widely used digital modulation schemes
in digital communication systems. This modulation technique
can be found in both FDM as well as spreadspectrum (i.e.,
CDMA) based systems. A QAM signal is a carrier frequency
which is both modulated in amplitude (i.e., AM modulation)
and in phase (i.e., PM modulation). It can be generated by
independently modulating two carriers of identical frequency
but with a 90° phase difference. This results in an in-phase (I)
carrier component and a quadrature (Q) carrier component at a
90° phase shift with respect to the I component. The I and Q
components are then summed to provide a QAM signal at the
specified carrier frequency.

A common and traditional implementation of a QAM modu-
lator is shown in Figure 56. The modulation is performed in the
analog domain in which two DACs are used to generate the
baseband I and Q components, respectively. Each component is
then typically applied to a Nyquist filter before being applied to
a quadrature mixer. The matching Nyquist filters shape and
limit each component’s spectral envelope while minimizing
intersymbol interference. The DAC is typically updated at the
QAM symbol rate or possibly a multiple of it if an interpolating
filter precedes the DAC. The use of an interpolating filter typi-
cally eases the implementation and complexity of the analog
filter, which can be a significant contributor to mismatches in
gain and phase between the two baseband channels. A quadra-
ture mixer modulates the I and Q components with in-phase
and quadrature phase carrier frequency and then sums the two
outputs to provide the QAM signal.

Applications
Maintaining low noise on power supplies and ground is critical
to obtaining optimum results from the AD9762. If properly
implemented, ground planes can perform a host of functions on
high speed circuit boards: bypassing, shielding, current trans-
port, etc. In mixed signal design, the analog and digital portions
of the board should be distinct from each other, with the analog
ground plane confined to the areas covering the analog signal
traces, and the digital ground plane confined to areas covering
the digital interconnects.
All analog ground pins of the DAC, reference and other analog
components should be tied directly to the analog ground plane.
The two ground planes should be connected by a path 1/8 to
1/4 inch wide underneath or within 1/2 inch of the DAC to
maintain optimum performance. Care should be taken to ensure
that the ground plane is uninterrupted over crucial signal paths.
On the digital side, this includes the digital input lines running
to the DAC as well as any clock signals. On the analog side, this
includes the DAC output signal, reference signal and the supply
feeders.

The use of wide runs or planes in the routing of power lines is
also recommended. This serves the dual role of providing a low
series impedance power supply to the part, as well as providing
some “free” capacitive decoupling to the appropriate ground
plane. It is essential that care be taken in the layout of signal
and power ground interconnects to avoid inducing extraneous
voltage drops in the signal ground paths. It is recommended that
all connections be short, direct and as physically close to the
package as possible in order to minimize the sharing of conduc-
tion paths between different currents. When runs exceed an inch
in length, strip line techniques with proper termination resistor
should be considered. The necessity and value of this resistor
will be dependent upon the logic family used.
Figure 56. Typical Analog QAM Architecture
In this implementation, it is much more difficult to maintain
proper gain and phase matching between the I and Q channels.
The circuit implementation shown in Figure 57 helps improve
upon the matching and temperature stability characteristics
between the I and Q channels. Using a single voltage reference
derived from U1 to set the gain for both the I and Q channels
will improve the gain matching and stability. Further enhance-
ments in gain matching and stability are achieved by using
separate matching resistor networks for both RSET and RLOAD
.
Additional trim capability via RCAL1 and RCAL2 can be added to
compensate for any initial mismatch in gain between the two
channels. This may be attributed to any mismatch between U1
and U2’s gain setting resistor, (RSET); effective load resistance,
(RLOAD); and/or voltage offset of each DAC’s control amplifier.
The differential voltage outputs of U1 and U2 are fed into their
respective differential inputs of a quadrature mixer via matching
50 Ω filter networks.
For a more detailed discussion of the implementation and
construction of high speed, mixed signal printed circuit boards,
refer to Analog Devices’ application notes AN-280 and AN-333.

It is also possible to generate a QAM signal completely in the
digital domain via a DSP or ASIC, in which case only a single
DAC of sufficient resolution and performance is required to
reconstruct the QAM signal. Also available from several vendors
are Digital ASICs which implement other digital modulation
schemes such as PSK and FSK. This digital implementation has
the benefit of generating perfectly matched I and Q components
in terms of gain and phase, which is essential in maintaining
optimum performance in a communication system. In this
implementation, the reconstruction DAC must be operating at a
sufficiently high clock rate to accommodate the highest specified
QAM carrier frequency. Figure 58 shows a block diagram of
such an implementation using the AD9762.
