ADC08D1020  
Low Power, 8-Bit, Dual 1.0 GSPS or Single 2.0 GSPS A/D  
Converter  
General Description  
Features  
The ADC08D1020 is a dual, low power, high performance,  
CMOS analog-to-digital converter that builds upon the AD-  
C08D1000 platform. The ADC08D1020 digitizes signals to 8  
bits of resolution at sample rates up to 1.3 GSPS. It has ex-  
panded features compared to the ADC08D1000, which in-  
clude a test pattern output for system debug, a clock phase  
adjust, and selectable output demultiplexer modes. Consum-  
ing a typical 1.6 Watts in non-demultiplex mode at 1 GSPS  
from a single 1.9 Volt supply, this device is guaranteed to have  
no missing codes over the full operating temperature range.  
The unique folding and interpolating architecture, the fully dif-  
ferential comparator design, the innovative design of the in-  
ternal sample-and-hold amplifier and the calibration schemes  
enable a very flat response of all dynamic parameters beyond  
Nyquist, producing a high 7.4 Effective Number of Bits  
(ENOB) with a 498 MHz input signal and a 1 GHz sample rate  
while providing a 10−18 Code Error Rate (C.E.R.) Output for-  
matting is offset binary and the Low Voltage Differential Sig-  
naling (LVDS) digital outputs are compatible with IEEE  
1596.3-1996, with the exception of an adjustable common  
mode voltage between 0.8V and 1.2V.

Each converter has a selectable output demultiplexer which  
feeds two LVDS buses. If the 1:2 demultiplexed mode is se-  
lected, the output data rate is reduced to half the input sample  
rate on each bus. When non-demultiplexed mode is selected,  
that output data rate on channels DI and DQ are at the same  
rate as the input sample clock. The two converters can be  
interleaved and used as a single 2 GSPS ADC.  
Applications  
Direct RF Down Conversion  
Digital Oscilloscopes  
The converter typically consumes less than 3.5 mW in the  
Power Down Mode and is available in a leaded or lead-free  
128-lead, thermally enhanced, exposed pad, LQFP and op-  
erates over the Industrial (-40°C TA +85°C) temperature  
range.

Description  
Output Voltage Amplitude and Serial Interface Clock. Tie this  
pin high for normal differential DCLK and data amplitude.  
Ground this pin for a reduced differential output amplitude  
and reduced power consumption. See 1.1.6 The LVDS  
Outputs. When the extended control mode is enabled, this  
pin functions as the SCLK input which clocks in the serial  
data. See 1.2 NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL for details  
on the extended control mode. See 1.3 THE SERIAL  
INTERFACE for description of the serial interface.

PDQ  
DCLK Edge Select, Double Data Rate Enable and Serial  
Data Input. This input sets the output edge of DCLK+ at  
which the output data transitions. (See 1.1.5.2 OutEdge and  
Demultiplex Control Setting). When this pin is floating or  
connected to 1/2 the supply voltage, DDR clocking is  
enabled. When the extended control mode is enabled, this  
pin functions as the SDATA input. See 1.2 NORMAL/  
EXTENDED CONTROL for details on the extended control  
mode. See 1.3 THE SERIAL INTERFACE for description of  
the serial interface.

DCLK Reset. When single-ended DCLK_RST is selected by  
floating or setting pin 52 logic high, a positive pulse on this  
pin is used to reset and synchronize the DCLK outputs of  
multiple converters. See 1.5 MULTIPLE ADC  
SYNCHRONIZATION for detailed description. When  
differential DCLK_RST is selected by setting pin 52 logic low,  
this pin receives the positive polarity of a differential pulse  
signal used to reset and synchronize the DCLK outputs of  
multiple converters.

Description  
Full Scale Range Select, Alternate Extended Control Enable  
and DCLK_RST-. This pin has three functions. It can  
conditionally control the ADC full-scale voltage, enable the  
extended control mode, or become the negative polarity  
signal of a differential pair in differential DCLK_RST mode.  
If pin 52 and pin 41 are floating or at logic high, this pin can  
be used to set the full-scale-range or can be used as an  
alternate extended control enable pin . When used as the  
FSR pin, a logic low on this pin sets the full-scale differential  
input range to a reduced VIN input level. A logic high on this  
pin sets the full-scale differential input range to a higher VIN  
input level. See Converter Electrical Characteristics. To  
enable the extended control mode, whereby the serial  
interface and control registers are employed, allow this pin  
to float or connect it to a voltage equal to VA/2. See 1.2  
NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL for information on the  
extended control mode. Note that pin 41 overrides the  
extended control enable of this pin. When pin 52 is held at  
logic low, this pin acts as the DCLK_RST- pin. When in  
differential DCLK_RST mode, there is no pin-controlled FSR  
and the full-scale-range is defaulted to the higher VIN input  
level.

Calibration Delay, Dual Edge Sampling and Serial Interface  
Chip Select. With a logic high or low on pin 14, this pin  
functions as Calibration Delay and sets the number of input  
clock cycles after power up before calibration begins (See  
1.1.1 Calibration). With pin 14 floating, this pin acts as the  
enable pin for the serial interface input and the CalDly value  
becomes "0" (short delay with no provision for a long power-  
up calibration delay). When this pin is floating or connected  
to a voltage equal to VA/2, DES (Dual Edge Sampling) mode  
is selected where the "I" input is sampled at twice the input  
clock rate and the "Q" input is ignored. See 1.1.5.1 Dual-  
Edge Sampling.  
127  
CalDly / DES / SCS  
LVDS Clock input pins for the ADC. The differential clock  
signal must be a.c. coupled to these pins. The input signal is  
sampled on the falling edge of CLK+. See 1.1.2 Acquiring  
the Input for a description of acquiring the input and 2.3 THE  
CLOCK INPUTS for an overview of the clock inputs.

Description  
Common Mode Voltage. This pin is the common mode  
output in d.c. coupling mode and also serves as the a.c.  
coupling mode select pin. When d.c. coupling is used, the  
voltage output at this pin is required to be the common mode  
input voltage at VIN+ and VIN− when d.c. coupling is used.  
This pin should be grounded when a.c. coupling is used at  
the analog inputs. This pin is capable of sourcing or sinking  
100 μA. See 2.2 THE ANALOG INPUT.

Temperature Diode Positive (Anode) and Negative  
(Cathode). These pins may be used for die temperature  
measurements, however no specified accuracy is implied or  
guaranteed. Noise coupling from adjacent output data  
signals has been shown to affect temperature  
measurements using this feature. See 2.6.2 Thermal  
Management.

Tdiode_P  
Tdiode_N  
Extended Control Enable. This pin always enables and  
disables Extended Control Enable. When this pin is set logic  
high, the extended control mode is inactive and all control of  
the device must be through control pins only . When it is set  
logic low, the extended control mode is active. This pin  
overrides the Extended Control Enable signal set using pin  
14.  
41  
ECE  
DCLK_RST select. This pin selects whether the DCLK is  
reset using a single-ended or differential signal. When this  
pin is floating or logic high, the DCLK_RST operation is  
single-ended and pin 14 functions as FSR/ALT_ECE. When  
this pin is logic low, the DCLK_RST operation becomes  
differential with functionality on pin 15 (DCLK_RST+) and pin  
14 (DCLK_RST-). When in differential DCLK_RST mode,  
there is no pin-controlled FSR and the full-scale-range is  
defaulted to the higher VIN input level. When pin 41 is set  
logic low, the extended control mode is active and the Full-  
Scale Voltage Adjust registers can be programmed.

I and Q channel LVDS Data Outputs that are delayed by one  
CLK cycle in the output demultiplexer. Compared with the  
DI/DQ outputs, these outputs represent the earlier time  
sample. These outputs should be terminated with a 100 Ω  
differential resistor when enabled. In non-demultiplexed  
mode, these outputs are disabled and are high impedance  
when enabled. When disabled, these outputs must be left  
floating.  
Out Of Range output. A differential high at these pins  
indicates that the differential input is out of range (outside the  
range ±VIN/2 as programmed by the FSR pin in non-  
extended control mode or the Input Full-Scale Voltage Adjust  
register setting in the extended control mode). DCLK2 is the  
exact mirror of DCLK and should output the same signal at  
the same rate.  
79  
80  
OR+/DCLK2+  
OR-/DCLK2-  
Data Clock. Differential Clock outputs used to latch the  
output data. Delayed and non-delayed data outputs are  
supplied synchronous to this signal. In 1:2 demultiplexed  
mode, this signal is at 1/2 the input clock rate in SDR mode  
and at 1/4 the input clock rate in the DDR mode. By default,  
the DCLK outputs are not active during the termination  
resistor trim section of the calibration cycle. If a system  
requires DCLK to run continuously during a calibration cycle,  
the termination resistor trim portion of the cycle can be  
disabled by setting the Resistor Trim Disable (RTD) bit to  
logic high in the Extended Configuration Register (address  
9h). This disables all subsequent termination resistor trims  
after the initial trim which occurs during the power on  
calibration. Therefore, this output is not recommended as a  
system clock unless the resistor trim is disabled. When the  
device is in the non-demultiplexed mode, DCLK can only be  
in DDR mode and the signal is at 1/2 the input clock rate.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. There is no guarantee of operation at the Absolute Maximum  
Ratings. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications  
and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics  
may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.  
Note 2: All voltages are measured with respect to GND = DR GND = 0V, unless otherwise specified.  
Note 3: When the input voltage at any pin exceeds the power supply limits (that is, less than GND or greater than VA), the current at that pin should be limited to  
25 mA. The 50 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of 25 mA to  
two. This limit is not placed upon the power, ground and digital output pins.  
Note 4: Human body model is 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kresistor. Machine model is 220 pF discharged through ZERO Ohms. Charged device  
model simulates a pin slowly acquiring charge (such as from a device sliding down the feeder in an automated assembler) then rapidly being discharged.  
Note 5: Reflow temperature profiles are different for lead-free and non-lead-free packages.  
Note 6: The analog inputs are protected as shown below. Input voltage magnitudes beyond the Absolute Maximum Ratings may damage this device.  
20206204  
Note 7: To guarantee accuracy, it is required that VA and VDR be well bypassed. Each supply pin must be decoupled with separate bypass capacitors. Additionally,  
achieving rated performance requires that the backside exposed pad be well grounded.  
Note 8: Typical figures are at TA = 25°C, and represent most likely parametric norms. Test limits are guaranteed to National's AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality  
Level).  
Note 9: Calculation of Full-Scale Error for this device assumes that the actual reference voltage is exactly its nominal value. Full-Scale Error for this device,  
therefore, is a combination of Full-Scale Error and Reference Voltage Error. See Figure 2. For relationship between Gain Error and Full-Scale Error, see  
Specification Definitions for Gain Error.  
Note 10: The analog and clock input capacitances are die capacitances only. Additional package capacitances of 0.65 pF differential and 0.95 pF each pin to  
ground are isolated from the die capacitances by lead and bond wire inductances.  
Note 11: This parameter is guaranteed by design and is not tested in production.  
Note 12: This parameter is guaranteed by design and/or characterization and is not tested in production.  
Note 13: The digital control pin capacitances are die capacitances only. Additional package capacitance of 1.6 pF each pin to ground are isolated from the die  
capacitances by lead and bond wire inductances.  
Note 14: Each of the two converters of the ADC08D1020 has two LVDS output buses, which each clock data out at one half the sample rate. The data at each  
bus is clocked out at one half the sample rate. The second bus (D0 through D7) has a pipeline latency that is one Input Clock cycle less than the latency of the  
first bus (Dd0 through Dd7) in 1:2 demux mode.  
Note 15: Tying VBG to the supply rail will increase the output offset voltage (VOS) by 400 mV (typical), as shown in the VOS specification above. Tying VBG to the  
supply rail will also affect the differential LVDS output voltage (VOD), causing it to increase by 40 mV (typical).

Specification Definitions  
APERTURE (SAMPLING) DELAY is the amount of delay,  
measured from the sampling edge of the Clock input, after  
which the signal present at the input pin is sampled inside the  
device.  
APERTURE JITTER (tAJ) is the variation in aperture delay  
from sample to sample. Aperture jitter shows up as input  
noise.  
CODE ERROR RATE (C.E.R.) is the probability of error and  
is defined as the probable number of word errors on the ADC  
output per unit of time divided by the number of words seen  
in that amount of time. A C.E.R. of 10-18 corresponds to a  
statistical error in one word about every four (4) years.  
20206246  
FIGURE 1.  
LVDS OUTPUT OFFSET VOLTAGE (VOS) is the midpoint  
between the D+ and D− pins output voltage with respect to  
ground, i.e., [(VD+) + ( VD−)] / 2.  
CLOCK DUTY CYCLE is the ratio of the time that the clock  
waveform is at a logic high to the total time of one clock period.  
DIFFERENTIAL NON-LINEARITY (DNL) is the measure of  
the maximum deviation from the ideal step size of 1 LSB.  
Measured at sample rate = 500 MSPS with a 1MHz input  
sinewave.  
MISSING CODES are those output codes that are skipped  
and will never appear at the ADC outputs. These codes can-  
not be reached with any input value.  
MSB (MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the largest  
value or weight. Its value is one half of full scale.  
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB, or EFFECTIVE  
BITS) is another method of specifying Signal-to-Noise and  
Distortion Ratio, or SINAD. ENOB is defined as  
(SINAD − 1.76) / 6.02 and says that the converter is equiva-  
lent to a perfect ADC of this (ENOB) number of bits.  
NEGATIVE FULL-SCALE ERROR (NFSE) is a measure of  
how far the first code transition is from the ideal 1/2 LSB above  
a differential −VIN/2. For the ADC08D1020 the reference volt-  
age is assumed to be ideal, so this error is a combination of  
full-scale error and reference voltage error.  
FULL POWER BANDWIDTH (FPBW) is a measure of the  
frequency at which the reconstructed output fundamental  
drops 3 dB below its low frequency value for a full-scale input.  
OFFSET ERROR (VOFF) is a measure of how far the mid-  
scale point is from the ideal zero voltage differential input.  
GAIN ERROR is the deviation from the ideal slope of the  
transfer function. It can be calculated from Offset and Full-  
Scale Errors:  
Offset Error = Actual Input causing average of 8k samples to  
result in an average code of 127.5.  
OUTPUT DELAY (tOD) is the time delay (in addition to  
Pipeline Delay) after the falling edge of CLK+ before the data  
update is present at the output pins.  
Positive Gain Error = Offset Error − Positive Full-Scale  
Error  
Negative Gain Error = −(Offset Error − Negative Full-  
Scale Error)  
OVER-RANGE RECOVERY TIME is the time required after  
the differential input voltages goes from ±1.2V to 0V for the  
converter to recover and make a conversion with its rated ac-  
curacy.  
Gain Error = Negative Full-Scale Error − Positive Full-  
Scale Error = Positive Gain Error + Negative Gain Error  
INTEGRAL NON-LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of worst  
case deviation of the ADC transfer function from an ideal  
straight line drawn through the ADC transfer function. The  
deviation of any given code from this straight line is measured  
from the center of that code value step. The best fit method  
is used  
PIPELINE DELAY (LATENCY) is the number of input clock  
cycles between initiation of conversion and when that data is  
presented to the output driver stage. New data is available at  
every clock cycle, but the data lags the conversion by the  
Pipeline Delay plus the tOD  
.
POSITIVE FULL-SCALE ERROR (PFSE) is a measure of  
how far the last code transition is from the ideal 1-1/2 LSB  
below a differential +VIN/2. For the ADC08D1020 the refer-  
ence voltage is assumed to be ideal, so this error is a combi-  
nation of full-scale error and reference voltage error.  
INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) is the creation of  
additional spectral components as a result of two sinusoidal  
frequencies being applied to the ADC input at the same time.  
It is defined as the ratio of the power in the second and third  
order intermodulation products to the power in one of the  
original frequencies. IMD is usually expressed in dBFS.  
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION RATIO (PSRR) can be one  
of two specifications. PSRR1 (DC PSRR) is the ratio of the  
change in full-scale error that results from a power supply  
voltage change from 1.8V to 2.0V. PSRR2 (AC PSRR) is a  
measure of how well an a.c. signal injected on the power sup-  
ply is rejected from the output and is measured with a 248  
MHz, 50 mVP-P signal riding upon the power supply. It is the  
ratio of the output amplitude of that signal at the output to its  
amplitude on the power supply pin. PSRR is expressed in dB.  
LSB (LEAST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the small-  
est value or weight of all bits. This value is  
VFS / 2N  
where VFS is the differential full-scale amplitude VIN as set by  
the FSR input and "n" is the ADC resolution in bits, and which  
is 8 for the ADC08D1020.  
LOW VOLTAGE DIFFERENTIAL SIGNALING (LVDS)  
DIFFERENTIAL VOLTAGE (VID and VOD) is two times the  
SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO (SNR) is the ratio, expressed in  
dB, of the rms value of the input signal at the output to the rms  
value of the sum of all other spectral components below one-  
half the sampling frequency, not including harmonics or d.c.  
absolute value of the difference between the VD+ and VD  
signals; each measured with respect to Ground.  
SIGNAL TO NOISE PLUS DISTORTION (S/(N+D) or  
SINAD) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms value of the  
input signal at the output to the rms value of all of the other  
15  
www.national.com  
spectral components below half the input clock frequency, in-  
cluding harmonics but excluding d.c.  
where Af1 is the RMS power of the fundamental (output) fre-  
quency and Af2 through Af10 are the RMS power of the first 9  
harmonic frequencies in the output spectrum.  
SPURIOUS-FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR) is the differ-  
ence, expressed in dB, between the rms values of the input  
signal at the output and the peak spurious signal, where a  
spurious signal is any signal present in the output spectrum  
that is not present at the input, excluding d.c.  
– Second Harmonic Distortion (2nd Harm) is the differ-  
ence, expressed in dB, between the RMS power in the input  
frequency seen at the output and the power in its 2nd har-  
monic level at the output.  
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio ex-  
pressed in dB, of the rms total of the first nine harmonic levels  
at the output to the level of the fundamental at the output. THD  
is calculated as  
– Third Harmonic Distortion (3rd Harm) is the difference  
expressed in dB between the RMS power in the input fre-  
quency seen at the output and the power in its 3rd harmonic  
level at the output.

1.0 Functional Description  
The ADC08D1020 is a versatile A/D Converter with an inno-  
vative architecture permitting very high speed operation. The  
controls available ease the application of the device to circuit  
solutions. Optimum performance requires adherence to the  
provisions discussed here and in the Applications Information  
Section.  
In normal operation, calibration is performed just after appli-  
cation of power and whenever a valid calibration command is  
given, which is holding the CAL pin low for at least tCAL_L clock  
cycles, then hold it high for at least another tCAL_H clock cycles  
as defined in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. The  
time taken by the calibration procedure is specified as tCALin  
Converter Electrical Characteristics. Holding the CAL pin high  
upon power up will prevent the calibration process from run-  
ning until the CAL pin experiences the above-mentioned  
tCAL_L clock cycles followed by tCAL_H clock cycles.  
While it is generally poor practice to allow an active pin to float,  
pins 4, 14 and 127 of the ADC08D1020 are designed to be  
left floating without jeopardy. In all discussions throughout this  
data sheet, whenever a function is called by allowing a control  
pin to float, connecting that pin to a potential of one half the  
VA supply voltage will have the same effect as allowing it to  
float.  
CalDly (pin 127) is used to select one of two delay times that  
apply from the application of power to the start of calibration.  
This calibration delay time is depedent on the setting of the  
CalDly pin and is specified as tCalDly in the Converter Electrical  
Characteristics. These delay values allow the power supply  
to come up and stabilize before calibration takes place. If the  
PD pin is high upon power-up, the calibration delay counter  
will be disabled until the PD pin is brought low. Therefore,  
holding the PD pin high during power up will further delay the  
start of the power-up calibration cycle. The best setting of the  
CalDly pin depends upon the power-on settling time of the  
power supply.  
1.1 OVERVIEW  
The ADC08D1020 uses a calibrated folding and interpolating  
architecture that achieves 7.4 effective bits. The use of folding  
amplifiers greatly reduces the number of comparators and  
power consumption. Interpolation reduces the number of  
front-end amplifiers required, minimizing the load on the input  
signal and further reducing power requirements. In addition  
to other things, on-chip calibration reduces the INL bow often  
seen with folding architectures. The result is an extremely  
fast, high performance, low power converter.  
The CAL bit does not reset itself to zero automatically, but  
must be manually reset before another calibration event can  
be initiated. If no further calibration event is desired, the CAL  
bit may be left high indefinitely, with no negative conse-  
quences. The RTD bit setting is critical for running a calibra-  
tion event with the Clock Phase Adjust enabled. If initiating a  
calibration event while the Clock Phase Adjust is enabled, the  
RTD bit must be set to high, or no calibration will occur. If  
initiating a calibration event while the Clock Phase Adjust is  
not enabled, a normal calibration will occur, regardless of the  
setting of the RTD bit.  
The analog input signal that is within the converter's input  
voltage range is digitized to eight bits at speeds of 200 MSPS  
to 1.3 GSPS, typical. Differential input voltages below nega-  
tive full-scale will cause the output word to consist of all  
zeroes. Differential input voltages above positive full-scale  
will cause the output word to consist of all ones. Either of  
these conditions at either the "I" or "Q" input will cause the OR  
(Out of Range) output to be activated. This single OR output  
indicates when the output code from one or both of the chan-  
nels is below negative full scale or above positive full scale.  
1.1.2 Acquiring the Input  
Each converter has a selectable output demultiplexer which  
feeds two LVDS buses. If the 1:2 demultiplexed mode is se-  
lected, the output data rate is reduced to half the input sample  
rate on each bus. When non-demultiplexed mode is selected,  
that output data rate on channels DI and DQ are at the same  
rate as the input sample clock.  
In 1:2 demux mode, data is acquired at the falling edge of CLK  
+ (pin 18) and the digital equivalent of that data is available  
at the digital outputs 13 input clock cycles later for the DI and  
DQ output buses and 14 input clock cycles later for the DId  
and DQd output buses. There is an additional internal delay  
called tOD before the data is available at the outputs. See the  
Timing Diagram. The ADC08D1020 will convert as long as  
the input clock signal is present. The fully differential com-  
parator design and the innovative design of the sample-and-  
hold amplifier, together with calibration, enables a very flat  
SINAD/ENOB response beyond 1 GHz. The ADC08D1020  
output data signaling is LVDS and the output format is offset  
binary.  
The output levels may be selected to be normal or reduced.  
Using reduced levels saves power but could result in erro-  
neous data capture of some or all of the bits, especially at  
higher sample rates and in marginally designed systems.  
1.1.1 Calibration  
A calibration is performed upon power-up and can also be  
invoked by the user upon command. Calibration trims the 100  
analog input differential termination resistor and minimizes  
full-scale error, offset error, DNL and INL, resulting in maxi-  
mizing SNR, THD, SINAD (SNDR) and ENOB. Internal bias  
currents are also set with the calibration process. All of this is  
true whether the calibration is performed upon power up or is  
performed upon command. Running the calibration is an im-  
portant part of this chip's functionality and is required in order  
to obtain adequate performance. In addition to the require-  
ment to be run at power-up, an on-command calibration must  
be run whenever the sense of the FSR pin is changed. For  
best performance, we recommend that an on-command cal-  
ibration be run 20 seconds or more after application of power  
and whenever the operating temperature changes signifi-  
cantly relative to the specific system performance require-  
ments. See 2.4.2.2 On-Command Calibration for more  
information. Calibration can not be initiated or run while the  
device is in the power-down mode. See 1.1.7 Power Down for  
1.1.3 Control Modes  
Much of the user control can be accomplished with several  
control pins that are provided. Examples include initiation of  
the calibration cycle, power down mode and full scale range  
setting. However, the ADC08D1020 also provides an Extend-  
ed Control mode whereby a serial interface is used to access  
register-based control of several advanced features. The Ex-  
tended Control mode is not intended to be enabled and  
disabled dynamically. Rather, the user is expected to employ  
either the normal control mode or the Extended Control mode  
at all times. When the device is in the Extended Control mode,  
pin-based control of several features is replaced with register-  
based control and those pin-based controls are disabled.  
These pins are OutV (pin 3), OutEdge/DDR (pin 4), FSR (pin  
14) and CalDly/DES (pin 127). See 1.2 NORMAL/EXTEND-  
ED CONTROL for details on the Extended Control mode.

1.1.4 The Analog Inputs  
This circuitry allows the ADC to be clocked with a signal  
source having a duty cycle ratio of 20% / 80% (worst case)  
for both the normal and the Dual Edge Sampling modes.  
The ADC08D1020 must be driven with a differential input sig-  
nal. Operation with a single-ended signal is not recommend-  
ed. It is important that the inputs either be a.c. coupled to the  
inputs with the VCMO pin grounded, or d.c. coupled with the  
VCMO pin left floating. An input common mode voltage equal  
to the VCMO output must be provided when d.c. coupling is  
used.  
1.1.5.1 Dual-Edge Sampling  
The DES mode allows one of the ADC08D1020's inputs (I or  
Q Channel) to be sampled by both ADCs. One ADC samples  
the input on the positive edge of the input clock and the other  
ADC samples the same input on the falling edge of the input  
clock. A single input is thus sampled twice per input clock cy-  
cle, resulting in an overall sample rate of twice the input clock  
frequency, or 2 GSPS with a 1 GHz input clock.  
Two full-scale range settings are provided with pin 14 (FSR).  
A high on pin 14 causes an input full-scale range setting of a  
higher VIN input level, while grounding pin 14 causes an input  
full-scale range setting of a reduced VIN input level. The full-  
scale range setting operates equally on both ADCs.  
In this mode, the outputs must be carefully interleaved to re-  
construct the sampled signal. If the device is programmed into  
the 1:2 demultiplex mode while in DES mode, the data is ef-  
fectively demultiplexed 1:4. If the input clock is 1 GHz, the  
effective sampling rate is doubled to 2 GSPS and each of the  
4 output buses have a 500 MHz output rate. All data is avail-  
able in parallel. To properly reconstruct the sampled wave-  
form, the four bytes of parallel data that are output with each  
clock are in the following sampling order from the earliest to  
the latest and must be interleaved as such: DQd, DId, DQ, DI.  
See Table 1 indicates what the outputs represent for the var-  
ious sampling possibilities. If the device is programmed into  
the non-demultiplex mode, two bytes of parallel data are out-  
put with each edge of the clock in the following sampling  
order, from the earliest to the latest: DQ, DI. See Table 2.  
In the Extended Control mode, programming the Input Full-  
Scale Voltage Adjust register allows the input full-scale range  
to be adjusted as described in 1.4 REGISTER DESCRIP-  
TION and 2.2 THE ANALOG INPUT.  
1.1.5 Clocking  
The ADC08D1020 must be driven with an a.c. coupled, dif-  
ferential clock signal. 2.3 THE CLOCK INPUTS describes the  
use of the clock input pins. A differential LVDS output clock is  
available for use in latching the ADC output data into whatever  
device is used to receive the data.  
The ADC08D1020 offers input and output clocking options.  
These options include a choice of Dual Edge Sampling (DES)  
or "interleaved mode" where the ADC08D1020 performs as a  
single device converting at twice the input clock rate, a choice  
of which DCLK edge the output data transitions on, and a  
choice of Single Data Rate (SDR) or Double Data Rate (DDR)  
outputs.  
In the non-extended mode of operation only the "I" input can  
be sampled in the DES mode. In the extended mode of op-  
eration, the user can select which input is sampled.  
The ADC08D1020 includes an automatic clock phase back-  
ground adjustment which is used in DES mode to automati-  
cally and continuously adjust the clock phase of the I and Q  
channel. This feature provides optimal Dual-Edge Sampling  
performance.  
The ADC08D1020 also has the option to use a duty cycle  
corrected clock receiver as part of the input clock circuit. This  
feature is enabled by default and provides improved ADC  
clocking especially in the Dual-Edge Sampling mode (DES).

1.1.5.2 OutEdge and Demultiplex Control Setting  
mance may be realized with the OutV input low, which results  
in lower power consumption. If the LVDS lines are long and/  
or the system in which the ADC08D1020 is used is noisy, it  
may be necessary to tie the OutV pin high.  
To help ease data capture in the SDR mode, the output data  
may be caused to transition on either the positive or the neg-  
ative edge of the output data clock (DCLK). In the non-  
extended control mode, this is chosen with the OutEdge input  
(pin 4). A high on the OutEdge input pin causes the output  
data to transition on the rising edge of DCLK+, while ground-  
ing this input causes the output to transition on the falling edge  
of DCLK+. See 2.4.3 Output Edge Synchronization. When in  
the extended control mode, the OutEdge is selected using the  
OED bit in the Configuration Register. This bit has two func-  
tions. In the single data rate (SDR) mode, the bit functions as  
OutEdge and selects the DCLK edge with which the data  
transitions. In the Double Data Rate (DDR) mode, this bit se-  
lects whether the device is in non-demultiplex or 1:2 demul-  
tiplex mode. In the DDR case, the DCLK has a 0° phase  
relationship with the output data independent of the demulti-  
plexer selection. For 1:2 Demux DDR 0° Mode, there are four,  
as opposed to three cycles of CLK systematic delay from the  
Synchronizing Edge to the start of tOD. See 1.5 MULTIPLE  
ADC SYNCHRONIZATIONfor more details.  
The LVDS data output have a typical common mode voltage  
of 800 mV when the VBG pin is unconnected and floating. This  
common mode voltage can be increased to 1.175V by tying  
the VBG pin to VA if a higher common mode is required.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: Tying the VBG pin to VA will also in-  
crease the differential LVDS output voltage by up to 40 mV.  
1.1.7 Power Down  
The ADC08D1020 is in the active state when the Power Down  
pin (PD) is low. When the PD pin is high, the device is in the  
power down mode. In this power down mode the data output  
pins (positive and negative) are put into a high impedance  
state and the devices power consumption is reduced to a  
minimal level. The DCLK+/- and OR +/- are not tri-stated, they  
are weakly pulled down to ground internally. Therefore when  
both I and Q are powered down the DCLK +/- and OR +/-  
should not be terminated to a DC voltage.  
A high on the PDQ pin will power down the "Q" channel and  
leave the "I" channel active. There is no provision to power  
down the "I" channel independently of the "Q" channel. Upon  
return to normal operation, the pipeline will contain meaning-  
less information.  
1.1.5.3 Single Data Rate and Double Data Rate  
A choice of single data rate (SDR) or double data rate (DDR)  
output is offered. With single data rate the output clock  
(DCLK) frequency is the same as the data rate of the two out-  
put buses. With double data rate the DCLK frequency is half  
the data rate and data is sent to the outputs on both edges of  
DCLK. DDR clocking is enabled in non-Extended Control  
mode by allowing pin 4 to float.  
If the PD input is brought high while a calibration is running,  
the device will not go into power down until the calibration  
sequence is complete. However, if power is applied and PD  
is already high, the device will not begin the calibration se-  
quence until the PD input goes low. If a manual calibration is  
requested while the device is powered down, the calibration  
will not begin at all. That is, the manual calibration input is  
completely ignored in the power down state. Calibration will  
function with the "Q" channel powered down, but that channel  
will not be calibrated if PDQ is high. If the "Q" channel is sub-  
sequently to be used, it is necessary to perform a calibration  
after PDQ is brought low.  
1.1.6 The LVDS Outputs  
The data outputs, the Out Of Range (OR) and DCLK, are  
LVDS. The electrical specifications of the LVDS outputs are  
compatible with typical LVDS receivers available on ASIC and  
FPGA chips; but they are not IEEE or ANSI communications  
standards compliant due to the low +1.9V supply used this  
chip. User is given the choice of a lower signal amplitude  
mode with OutV control pin or the OV control register bit. For  
short LVDS lines and low noise systems, satisfactory perfor-

ting pin 41 to logic low. If pin 41 is floating and pin 52 is floating  
or logic high, pin 14 can be used to enable the extended con-  
trol mode. The choice of control modes is required to be a  
fixed selection and is not intended to be switched dynamically  
while the device is operational.  
The ADC08D1020 may be operated in one of two modes. In  
the simpler standard control mode, the user affects available  
configuration and control of the device through several control  
pins. The "extended control mode" provides additional con-  
figuration and control options through a serial interface and a  
set of 9 registers. Extended control mode is selected by set-

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not write to the Serial Interface when  
calibrating the ADC. Doing so will impair the performance of  
the device until it is re-calibrated correctly. Programming the  
serial registers will also reduce dynamic performance of the  
ADC for the duration of the register access time.  
1.3 THE SERIAL INTERFACE  
IMPORTANT NOTE: During the initial write using the serial  
interface, all nine registers must be written with desired or  
default values. Subsequent writes to single registers are al-  
lowed.

nDE: DDR Enable. When this bit is set to 0b,  
data bus clocking follows the DDR (Double  
Data Rate) mode whereby a data word is  
output with each rising and falling edge of  
DCLK. When this bit is set to a 1b, data bus  
clocking follows the SDR (single data rate)  
mode whereby each data word is output with  
either the rising or falling edge of DCLK , as  
determined by the OutEdge bit.  
Nine write-only registers provide several control and config-  
uration options in the Extended Control Mode. These regis-  
ters have no effect when the device is in the Normal Control  
Mode. Each register description below also shows the Power-  
On Reset (POR) state of each control bit.

the normal control mode. When this bit is set  
to 1b, the standard output amplitude of 710  
mVP-P is used. When this bit is set to 0b, the  
reduced output amplitude of 510 mVP-P is

OED: Output Edge and Demultiplex Control.  
This bit has two functions. When the device  
is in SDR mode, this bit selects the DCLK  
edge with which the data words transition  
and has the same effect as the OutEdge pin  
in the Non-extended control mode. When this  
bit is set to 1b, the data outputs change with  
the rising edge of DCLK+. When this bit is set  
to 0b, the data output changes with the falling  
edge of DCLK+. When the device is in DDR  
mode, this bit selects the non-demultiplexed  
mode when set to 1b. When the bit set to 0b,  
the device is programmed into the  
Demultiplexed mode. If the device is in DDR  
and Non-Demultiplexed Mode, then the  
DCLK has a 0° phase relationship with the  
data; it is not possible to select the 90° phase  
relationship.

effect in the DDR mode. When this bit is set  
to 0b, the DCLK edges are time-aligned with  
the data bus edges ("0° Phase"). When this

For best performance, it is recommended  
that the value in this field be limited to the  
range of 0110 0000 0b to 1110 0000 0b. i.e.,  
limit the amount of adjustment to ±15%. The  
remaining ±5% headroom allows for the  
ADC's own full scale variation. A gain  
adjustment does not require ADC re-  
calibration.  
This is a feature intended to help the system designer remove  
small imbalances in clock distribution traces at the board level  
when multiple ADCs are used. Please note, however, that  
enabling this feature will reduce the dynamic performance  
(ENOB, SNR, SFDR) some finite amount. The amount of  
degradation increases with the amount of adjustment applied.  
The user is strongly advised to (a) use the minimal amount of  
adjustment; and (b) verify the net benefit of this feature in his  
system before relying on it.

1.5 MULTIPLE ADC SYNCHRONIZATION  
The ADC08D1020 has the capability to precisely reset its  
sampling clock input to DCLK output relationship as deter-  
mined by the user-supplied DCLK_RST pulse. This allows  
multiple ADCs in a system to have their DCLK (and data) out-  
puts transition at the same time with respect to the shared  
CLK input that all the ADCs use for sampling.

The DCLK_RST signal must observe some timing require-  
ments that are shown in Figure 7, Figure 8 and Figure 9 of the  
Timing Diagrams. The DCLK_RST pulse must be of a mini-  
33  
www.national.com  
mum width and its deassertion edge must observe setup and  
hold times with respect to the CLK input rising edge. The du-  
ration of the DCLK_RST pulse affects the length of time that  
the digital output will take before providing valid data again  
after the end of the reset condition. Therefore, the DCLK_RST  
pulse width should be made reasonably short within the sys-  
tem application constraints. These timing specifications are  
listed as tRH, tRS, and tPWR in the Converter Electrical Char-  
acteristics.

The DCLK_RST signal can be asserted asynchronous to the  
input clock. If DCLK_RST is asserted, the DCLK output is held  
in a designated state. The state in which DCLK is held during  
the reset period is determined by the mode of operation (SDR/  
DDR) and the setting of the Output Edge configuration pin or  
bit. (Refer to Figure 7, Figure 8 and Figure 9 for the DCLK  
reset state conditions). Therefore, depending upon when the  
DCLK_RST signal is asserted, there may be a narrow pulse  
on the DCLK line during this reset event. When the  
DCLK_RST signal is de-asserted in synchronization with the  
CLK rising edge, there are three or four CLK cycles of sys-  
tematic delay and the next CLK falling edge synchronizes the  
DCLK output with those of other ADC08D1020s in the sys-  
tem. The DCLK output is enabled again after a constant delay  
(relative to the input clock frequency) which is equal to the  
CLK input to DCLK output delay (tOD). The device always ex-  
hibits this delay characteristic in normal operation. The user  
has the option of using a single-ended DCLK_RST signal, but  
a differential DCLK_RST is strongly recommended due to its  
superior timing specifications.

Diagrams, there is

DCLK_RST to the reappearance of DCLK, which is equal to  
several cycles of CLK plus tOD. Note that the deassertion of  
DCLK_RST is not latched in until the next falling edge of CLK.  
For 1:2 Demux DDR 0° Mode, there are four CLK cycles of  
delay; for all other modes, there are three CLK cycles of delay.

If the device is not programmed to allow DCLK to run contin-  
uously, DCLK will become inactive during a calibration cycle.  
Therefore, it is strongly recommended that DCLK only be  
used as a data capture clock and not as a system clock.

...  
It is possible for the I and the Q channels' test patterns to be  
not synchronized. Either I and Id or Q and Qd patterns may  
be slipped by one DCLK.  
The DCLK_RST pin should NOT be brought high while the  
calibration process is running (while CalRun is high). Doing  
so could cause a digital glitch in the digital circuitry, resulting  
in corruption and invalidation of the calibration.  
To ensure that the test pattern starts synchronously in each  
port, set DCLK_RST while writing the Test Pattern Output bit  
in the Extended Configuration Register. The pattern appears  
at the data output ports when DCLK_RST is cleared low. The  
test pattern will work at speed and will work with the device in  
the SDR, DDR and the non-demultiplex output modes.  
1.6 ADC TEST PATTERN  
To aid in system debug, the ADC08D1020 has the capability  
of providing a test pattern at the four output ports completely  
independent of the input signal. The ADC is disengaged and  
a test pattern generator is connected to the outputs including  
OR. The test pattern output is the same in DES mode and  
non-DES mode. Each port is given a unique 8-bit word, alter-  
nating between 1's and 0's as described in Table 6 and Table  
7.

Note that a precise d.c. common mode voltage must be  
present at the ADC inputs. This common mode voltage,  
VCMO, is provided on-chip when a.c. input coupling is used  
and the input signal is a.c. coupled to the ADC.  
2.0 Applications Information  
2.1 THE REFERENCE VOLTAGE  
The voltage reference for the ADC08D1020 is derived from a  
1.254V bandgap reference, a buffered version of which is  
made available at pin 31, VBG, for user convenience.  
When the inputs are a.c. coupled, the VCMO output must be  
grounded, as shown in Figure 12. This causes the on-chip  
VCMO voltage to be connected to the inputs through on-chip  
50 kresistors.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: An Analog input channel that is not used  
(e.g. in DES Mode) should be connected to ac-ground (ie,  
capacitors to ground) when the inputs are a.c. coupled. Do  
not connect an unused analog input directly to ground.  
This output has an output current capability of ±100 μA and  
should be buffered if more current than this is required.  
The internal bandgap-derived reference voltage has a nomi-  
nal value of 650 mV or 870 mV, as determined by the FSR  
pin and described in 1.1.4 The Analog Inputs.  
There is no provision for the use of an external reference volt-  
age, but the full-scale input voltage can be adjusted through  
a Configuration Register in the Extended Control mode, as  
explained in 1.2 NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL.  
Differential input signals up to the chosen full-scale level will  
be digitized to 8 bits. Signal excursions beyond the full-scale  
range will be clipped at the output. These large signal excur-  
sions will also activate the OR output for the time that the  
signal is out of range. See 2.2.2 Out Of Range (OR) Indica-  
tion.  
One extra feature of the VBG pin is that it can be used to raise  
the common mode voltage level of the LVDS outputs. The  
output offset voltage (VOS) is typically 800 mV when the VBG  
pin is used as an output or left unconnected. To raise the  
LVDS offset voltage to a typical value of 1175 mV the VBG pin  
can be connected directly to the supply rails.  
20206244  
FIGURE 12. Differential Input Drive  
When the d.c. coupled mode is used, a common mode volt-  
age must be provided at the differential inputs. This common  
mode voltage should track the VCMO output pin. Note that the  
VCMO output potential will change with temperature. The com-  
mon mode output of the driving device should track this  
change.  
2.2 THE ANALOG INPUT  
The analog input is a differential one to which the signal  
source may be a.c. coupled or d.c. coupled. In the normal  
mode, the full-scale input range is selected using the FSR pin  
as specified in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. In the  
Extended Control mode, the full-scale input range is selected  
by programming the Full-Scale Voltage Adjust register  
through the Serial Interface. For best performance when ad-  
justing the input full-scale range in the Extended Control, refer  
to 1.4 REGISTER DESCRIPTION for guidelines on limiting  
the amount of adjustment  
IMPORTANT NOTE: An analog input channel that is not used  
(e.g. in DES Mode) should be tied to the VCMO voltage when  
the inputs are d.c. coupled. Do not connect unused analog  
inputs to ground.  
Full-scale distortion performance falls off rapidly as the  
input common mode voltage deviates from VCMO. This is  
a direct result of using a very low supply voltage to min-  
imize power. Keep the input common voltage within 50  
Table 8 gives the input to output relationship with the FSR pin  
high when the normal (non-extended) mode is used. With the  
FSR pin grounded, the millivolt values in Table 8 are reduced  
to 75% of the values indicated. In the Enhanced Control  
Mode, these values will be determined by the full scale range  
and offset settings in the Control Registers.  
mV of VCMO  
.
Performance is as good in the d.c. coupled mode as it is in  
the a.c. coupled mode, provided the input common mode  
voltage at both analog inputs remain within 50 mV of VCMO  
.
2.2.1 Handling Single-Ended Input Signals  
TABLE 8. Differential Input To Output Relationship  
(Non-Extended Control Mode, FSR High)  
There is no provision for the ADC08D1020 to adequately pro-  
cess single-ended input signals. The best way to handle  
single-ended signals is to convert them to differential signals  
before presenting them to the ADC. The easiest way to ac-  
complish single-ended to differential signal conversion is with  
an appropriate balun-connected transformer, as shown in  
Figure 13.

VCM + 217.5 mV VCM − 217.5 mV  
The buffered analog inputs simplify the task of driving these  
inputs and the RC pole that is generally used at sampling ADC  
inputs is not required. If it is desired to use an amplifier circuit  
before the ADC, use care in choosing an amplifier with ade-  
quate noise and distortion performance and adequate gain at  
the frequencies used for the application.

when selecting a balun. The phase imbalance should be no  
more than ±2.5° and the amplitude imbalance should be lim-  
ited to less than 1dB at the desired input frequency range.  
Finally, when selecting a balun, the VSWR (Voltage Standing  
Wave Ratio), bandwidth and insertion loss of the balun should  
also be considered. The VSWR aids in determining the overall  
transmission line termination capability of the balun when in-  
terfacing to the ADC input. The insertion loss should be  
considered so that the signal at the balun output is within the  
specified input range of the ADC as described in the Con-  
verter Electrical Characteristics as the specification VIN.

FIGURE 13. Single-Ended to Differential Signal  
Conversion Using a Balun  
2.2.1.2. d.c. Coupled Input  
Figure 13 is a generic depiction of a single-ended to differen-  
tial signal conversion using a balun. The circuitry specific to  
the balun will depend upon the type of balun selected and the  
overall board layout. It is recommended that the system de-  
signer contact the manufacturer of the balun they have se-  
lected to aid in designing the best performing single-ended to  
differential conversion circuit using that particular balun.  
When d.c. coupling to the ADC08D1020 analog inputs is re-  
quired, single-ended to differential conversion may be easily  
accomplished with the LMH6555, as shown inFigure 14. In  
such applications, the LMH6555 performs the task of single-  
ended to differential conversion while delivering low distortion  
and noise, as well as output balance, that supports the oper-  
ation of the ADC08D1020. Connecting the ADC08D1020  
VCMO pin to the VCM_REF pin of the LMH6555, through an ap-  
propriate buffer, will ensure that the common mode input  
voltage is as needed for optimum performance of the AD-  
C08D1020. The LMV321 was chosen to buffer VCMD for its  
low voltage operation and reasonable offset voltage.  
When selecting a balun, it is important to understand the input  
architecture of the ADC. There are specific balun parameters  
of which the system designer should be mindful. A designer  
should match the impedance of their analog source to the  
ADC081020's on-chip 100differential input termination re-  
sistor. The range of this termination resistor is described in  
the electrical table as the specification RIN.  
Be sure to limit output current from the ADC08D1020 VCMO  
pin to 100 μA  
Also, the phase and amplitude balance are important. The  
lowest possible phase and amplitude imbalance is desired

In Figure 14, RADJ- and RADJ+ are used to adjust the differential  
offset that can be measured at the ADC inputs VIN+ / VIN- with  
LMH6555's input terminated to ground as shown but not driv-

offset with reference to VIN- greater than |15mV| should be  
reduced with a resistor in the RADJ- position. Likewise, an un-

|15mV| should be reduced with a resistor in the RADJ+ position.

2.2.2 Out Of Range (OR) Indication  
problems, keep the clock level within the range specified as  
VID in the Converter Electrical Characteristics.  
When the conversion result is clipped the Out of Range output  
is activated such that OR+ goes high and OR- goes low. This  
output is active as long as accurate data on either or both of  
the buses would be outside the range of 00h to FFh. Note that  
when the device is programmed to provide a second DCLK  
output, the OR signals become DCLK2. Refer to 1.4 REGIS-  
TER DESCRIPTION  
The low and high times of the input clock signal can affect the  
performance of any A/D Converter. The ADC08D1020 fea-  
tures a duty cycle clock correction circuit which can maintain  
performance over temperature even in DES mode. The ADC  
will meet its performance specification if the input clock high  
and low times are maintained within the duty cycle range as  
specified in the Converter Electrical Characteristics.  
2.2.3 Full-Scale Input Range  
High speed, high performance ADCs such as the AD-  
C08D1020 require a very stable input clock signal with mini-  
mum phase noise or jitter. ADC jitter requirements are defined  
by the ADC resolution (number of bits), maximum ADC input  
frequency and the input signal amplitude relative to the ADC  
input full scale range. The maximum jitter (the sum of the jitter  
from all sources) allowed to prevent a jitter-induced reduction  
in SNR is found to be  
As with all A/D Converters, the input range is determined by  
the value of the ADC's reference voltage. The reference volt-  
age of the ADC08D1020 is derived from an internal band-gap  
reference. The FSR pin controls the effective reference volt-  
age of the ADC08D1020 such that the differential full-scale  
input range at the analog inputs is a normal amplitude with  
the FSR pin high, or a reduced amplitude with FSR pin low as  
defined by the specification VIN in the Converter Electrical  
Characteristics. Best SNR is obtained with FSR high, but bet-  
ter distortion and SFDR are obtained with the FSR pin low.  
The LMH6555 of is Figure 14 suitable for any Full Scale  
Range.  
tJ(MAX) = (VINFSR / VIN(P-P)) x (1/(2(N+1) x π x fIN))  
where tJ(MAX) is the rms total of all jitter sources in seconds,  
VIN(P-P) is the peak-to-peak analog input signal, VINFSR is the  
full-scale range of the ADC, "N" is the ADC resolution in bits  
and fIN is the maximum input frequency, in Hertz, at the ADC  
analog input.  
2.3 THE CLOCK INPUTS  
The ADC08D1020 has differential LVDS clock inputs, CLK+  
and CLK−, which must be driven with an a.c. coupled, differ-  
ential clock signal. Although the ADC08D1020 is tested and  
its performance is guaranteed with a differential 1 GHz clock,  
it typically will function well with input clock frequencies indi-  
cated in the Converter Electrical Characteristics. The clock  
inputs are internally terminated and biased. The input clock  
signal must be capacitively coupled to the clock pins as indi-  
cated in Figure 15.  
Note that the maximum jitter described above is the RSS sum  
of the jitter from all sources, including that in the ADC input  
clock, that added by the system to the ADC input clock and  
input signals and that added by the ADC itself. Since the ef-  
fective jitter added by the ADC is beyond user control, the best  
the user can do is to keep the sum of the externally added  
input clock jitter and the jitter added by the analog circuitry to  
the analog signal to a minimum.  
Input clock amplitudes above those specified in the Converter  
Electrical Characteristics may result in increased input offset  
voltage. This would cause the converter to produce an output  
code other than the expected 127/128 when both input pins  
are at the same potential.  
Operation up to the sample rates indicated in the Converter  
Electrical Characteristics is typically possible if the maximum  
ambient temperatures indicated are not exceeded. Operating  
at higher sample rates than indicated for the given ambient  
temperature may result in reduced device reliability and prod-  
uct lifetime. This is because of the higher power consumption  
and die temperatures at high sample rates. Important also for  
reliability is proper thermal management . See 2.6.2 Thermal  
Management.  
2.4 CONTROL PINS  
Six control pins (without the use of the serial interface) provide  
a wide range of possibilities in the operation of the AD-  
C08D1020 and facilitate its use. These control pins provide  
Full-Scale Input Range setting, Calibration, Calibration Delay,  
Output Edge Synchronization choice, LVDS Output Level  
choice and a Power Down feature.  
2.4.1 Full-Scale Input Range Setting  
The input full-scale range can be selected with the FSR con-  
trol input (pin 14) in the normal mode of operation. The input  
full-scale range is specified as VIN in the Converter Electrical  
Characteristics. In the extended control mode, the input full-  
scale range may be programmed using the Full-Scale Adjust  
Voltage register. See 2.2 THE ANALOG INPUT for more in-  
formation.  
20206247  
FIGURE 15. Differential (LVDS) Input Clock Connection  
2.4.2 Calibration  
The ADC08D1020 calibration must be run to achieve speci-  
fied performance. The calibration procedure is run upon pow-  
er-up and can be run any time on command. The calibration  
procedure is exactly the same whether there is an input clock  
present upon power up or if the clock begins some time after  
application of power. The CalRun output indicator is high  
while a calibration is in progress. Note that the DCLK outputs  
are not active during a calibration cycle by default and there-  
fore are not recommended as system clock unless the Re-  
sistor Trim Disable feature is used (Reg.9h). The DCLK  
The differential input clock line pair should have a character-  
istic impedance of 100 and (when using a balun), be  
terminated at the clock source in that (100 ) characteristic  
impedance. The input clock line should be as short and as  
direct as possible. The ADC08D1020 clock input is internally  
terminated with an untrimmed 100 resistor.  
Insufficient input clock levels will result in poor dynamic per-  
formance. Excessively high clock levels could cause a  
change in the analog input offset voltage. To avoid these  
37  
www.national.com  
outputs are continuously present at the output only when the  
Resistor Trim Disable is active.  
Note that the calibration delay selection is not possible in the  
Extended Control mode and the short delay time is used.  
2.4.2.1 Power-On Calibration  
2.4.3 Output Edge Synchronization  
Power-on calibration begins after a time delay following the  
application of power. This time delay is determined by the  
setting of CalDly, as described in the Calibration Delay Sec-  
tion, below.  
DCLK signals are available to help latch the converter output  
data into external circuitry. The output data can be synchro-  
nized with either edge of these DCLK signals. That is, the  
output data transition can be set to occur with either the rising  
edge or the falling edge of the DCLK signal, so that either  
edge of that DCLK signal can be used to latch the output data  
into the receiving circuit.  
The calibration process will be not be performed if the CAL  
pin is high at power up. In this case, the calibration cycle will  
not begin until the on-command calibration conditions are  
met. The ADC08D1020 will function with the CAL pin held  
high at power up, but no calibration will be done and perfor-  
mance will be impaired. A manual calibration, however, may  
be performed after powering up with the CAL pin high. See  
On-Command Calibration 2.4.2.2 On-Command Calibration.  
When OutEdge (pin 4) is high, the output data is synchronized  
with (changes with) the rising edge of the DCLK+ (pin 82).  
When OutEdge is low, the output data is synchronized with  
the falling edge of DCLK+.  
At the very high speeds of which the ADC08D1020 is capable,  
slight differences in the lengths of the DCLK and data lines  
can mean the difference between successful and erroneous  
data capture. The OutEdge pin is used to capture data on the  
DCLK edge that best suits the application circuit and layout.  
The internal power-on calibration circuitry comes up in an un-  
known logic state. If the input clock is not running at power up  
and the power on calibration circuitry is active, it will hold the  
analog circuitry in power down and the power consumption  
will typically be less than 200 mW. The power consumption  
will be normal after the clock starts.  
Reliable data capture can be achieved by using just one  
DCLK+/- signal for the full 32 signal data bus. However, if de-  
sired, the user may configure the OR+/- output as the second  
DCLK+/- output instead.  
2.4.2.2 On-Command Calibration  
To initiate an on-command calibration, bring the CAL pin high  
for a minimum of tCAL_H input clock cycles after it has been  
low for a minimum of tCAL_L input clock cycles. Holding the  
CAL pin high upon power up will prevent execution of power-  
on calibration until the CAL pin is low for a minimum of  
tCAL_L input clock cycles, then brought high for a minimum of  
another tCAL_H input clock cycles. The calibration cycle will  
begin tCAL_H input clock cycles after the CAL pin is thus  
brought high. The CalRun signal should be monitored to de-  
termine when the calibration cycle has completed.  
2.4.4 LVDS Output Level Control  
The output level can be set to one of two levels with OutV (pin  
3). The strength of the output drivers is greater with OutV high.  
With OutV low there is less power consumption in the output  
drivers, but the lower output level means decreased noise  
immunity.  
For short LVDS lines and low noise systems, satisfactory per-  
formance may be realized with the OutV input low. If the LVDS  
lines are long and/or the system in which the ADC08D1020  
is used is noisy, it may be necessary to tie the OutV pin high.  
The minimum tCAL_L and tCAL_H input clock cycle sequence is  
required to ensure that random noise does not cause a cali-  
bration to begin when it is not desired. As mentioned for best  
performance, a calibration should be performed 20 seconds  
or more after power up and repeated when the operating  
temperature changes significantly relative to the specific sys-  
tem design performance requirements.  
2.4.5 Dual Edge Sampling  
The Dual Edge Sampling (DES) feature causes one of the two  
input pairs to be routed to both ADCs. The other input pair is  
deactivated. One of the ADCs samples the input signal on one  
input clock edge (duty cycle corrected), the other samples the  
input signal on the other input clock edge (duty cycle correct-  
ed). If the device is in the 1:2 output demultiplex mode, the  
result is an output data rate 1/4 that of the interleaved sample  
rate which is twice the input clock frequency. Data is present-  
ed in parallel on all four output buses in the following order:  
DQd, DId, DQ, DI. If the device is the non-demultiplex output  
mode, the result is an output data rate 1/2 that of the inter-  
leaved sample rate. Data is presented in parallel on two  
output buses in the following order: DQ, DI.  
By default, On-Command calibration also includes calibrating  
the input termination resistance and the ADC. However, since  
the input termination resistance, once trimmed at power-up,  
changes marginally with temperature, the user has the option  
to disable the input termination resistor trim, which will guar-  
antee that the DCLK is continuously present at the output  
during subsequent calibration. The Resistor Trim Disable can  
be programmed in register (address: 1h, bit 13) when in the  
Extended Control mode. Refer to for register programming  
information.  
To use this feature in the non-extended control mode, allow  
pin 127 to float and the signal at the "I" channel input will be  
sampled by both converters. The Calibration Delay will then  
only be a short delay.  
2.4.2.3 Calibration Delay  
The CalDly input (pin 127) is used to select one of two delay  
times after the application of power to the start of calibration,  
as described in 1.1.1 Calibration. The calibration delay values  
allow the power supply to come up and stabilize before cali-  
bration takes place. With no delay or insufficient delay, cali-  
bration would begin before the power supply is stabilized at  
its operating value and result in non-optimal calibration coef-  
ficients. If the PD pin is high upon power-up, the calibration  
delay counter will be disabled until the PD pin is brought low.  
Therefore, holding the PD pin high during power up will further  
delay the start of the power-up calibration cycle. The best  
setting of the CalDly pin depends upon the power-on settling  
time of the power supply.  
In the extended control mode, either input may be used for  
dual edge sampling. See 1.1.5.1 Dual-Edge Sampling.  
2.4.6 Power Down Feature  
The Power Down pins (PD and PDQ) allow the ADC08D1020  
to be entirely powered down (PD) or the "Q" channel to be  
powered down and the "I" channel to remain active. See 1.1.7  
Power Down for details on the power down feature.  
The digital data (+/-) output pins are put into a high impedance  
state when the PD pin for the respective channel is high. Upon  
return to normal operation, the pipeline will contain meaning-  
less information and must be flushed.  
www.national.com  
38  
If the PD input is brought high while a calibration is running,  
the device will not go into power down until the calibration  
sequence is complete. However, if power is applied and PD  
is already high, the device will not begin the calibration se-  
quence until the PD input goes low. If a manual calibration is  
requested while the device is powered down, the calibration  
will not begin at all. That is, the manual calibration input is  
completely ignored in the power down state.  
ADC supplies should be the same supply used for other ana-  
log circuitry, if not a dedicated supply.  
2.6.1 Supply Voltage  
The ADC08D1020 is specified to operate with a supply volt-  
age of 1.9V ±0.1V. It is very important to note that, while this  
device will function with slightly higher supply voltages, these  
higher supply voltages may reduce product lifetime.  
No pin should ever have a voltage on it that is in excess of the  
supply voltage or below ground by more than 150 mV, not  
even on a transient basis. This can be a problem upon appli-  
cation of power and power shut-down. Be sure that the sup-  
plies to circuits driving any of the input pins, analog or digital,  
do not come up any faster than does the voltage at the AD-  
C08D1020 power pins.  
2.5 THE DIGITAL OUTPUTS  
The ADC08D1020 normally demultiplexes the output data of  
each of the two ADCs on the die onto two LVDS output buses  
(total of four buses, two for each ADC). For each of the two  
converters, the results of successive conversions started on  
the odd falling edges of the CLK+ pin are available on one of  
the two LVDS buses, while the results of conversions started  
on the even falling edges of the CLK+ pin are available on the  
other LVDS bus. This means that, the word rate at each LVDS  
bus is 1/2 the ADC08D1020 input clock rate and the two bus-  
es must be multiplexed to obtain the entire 1 GSPS conver-  
sion result.  
The Absolute Maximum Ratings should be strictly observed,  
even during power up and power down. A power supply that  
produces a voltage spike at turn-on and/or turn-off of power  
can destroy the ADC08D1020. The circuit of Figure 16 will  
provide supply overshoot protection.  
Many linear regulators will produce output spiking at power-  
on unless there is a minimum load provided. Active devices  
draw very little current until their supply voltages reach a few  
hundred millivolts. The result can be a turn-on spike that can  
destroy the ADC08D1020, unless a minimum load is provided  
for the supply. The 100 resistor at the regulator output pro-  
vides a minimum output current during power-up to ensure  
there is no turn-on spiking.  
Since the minimum recommended input clock rate for this  
device is 200 MSPS (normal non-DES mode), the effective  
rate can be reduced to as low as 100 MSPS by using the  
results available on just one of the the two LVDS buses and  
a 200 MHz input clock, decimating the 200 MSPS data by two.  
There is one LVDS output clock pair (DCLK+/−) available for  
use to latch the LVDS outputs on all buses. However, the user  
has the option to configure the OR+/- output as a second  
DCLK+/- pair. Whether the data is sent at the rising or falling  
edge of DCLK is determined by the sense of the OutEdge pin,  
as described in 2.4.3 Output Edge Synchronization.  
In the circuit of Figure 16, an LM317 linear regulator is satis-  
factory if its input supply voltage is 4V to 5V . If a 3.3V supply  
is used, an LM1086 linear regulator is recommended.  
DDR (Double Data Rate) clocking can also be used. In this  
mode a word of data is presented with each edge of DCLK,  
reducing the DCLK frequency to 1/4 the input clock frequency.  
See the Timing Diagram section for details.  
The OutV pin is used to set the LVDS differential output levels.  
See 2.4.4 LVDS Output Level Control.  
The output format is Offset Binary. Accordingly, a full-scale  
input level with VIN+ positive with respect to VIN− will produce  
an output code of all ones, a full-scale input level with VIN−  
positive with respect to VIN+ will produce an output code of all  
zeros and when VIN+ and VIN− are equal, the output code will  
vary between codes 127 and 128. A non-multiplexed mode of  
operation is available for those cases where the digital ASIC  
is capable of higher speed operation.  
20206254  
FIGURE 16. Non-Spiking Power Supply  
The output drivers should have a supply voltage, VDR, that is  
within the range specified in the Operating Ratings table. This  
voltage should not exceed the VA supply voltage.  
2.6 POWER CONSIDERATIONS  
If the power is applied to the device without an input clock  
signal present, the current drawn by the device might be be-  
low 200 mA. This is because the ADC08D1020 gets reset  
through clocked logic and its initial state is unknown. If the  
reset logic comes up in the "on" state, it will cause most of the  
analog circuitry to be powered down, resulting in less than  
100 mA of current draw. This current is greater than the power  
down current because not all of the ADC is powered down.  
The device current will be normal after the input clock is es-  
tablished.  
A/D converters draw sufficient transient current to corrupt  
their own power supplies if not adequately bypassed. A  
33 µF capacitor should be placed within an inch (2.5 cm) of  
the A/D converter power pins. A 0.1 µF capacitor should be  
placed as close as possible to each VA pin, preferably within  
one-half centimeter. Leadless chip capacitors are preferred  
because they have low lead inductance.  
The VA and VDR supply pins should be isolated from each  
other to prevent any digital noise from being coupled into the  
analog portions of the ADC. A ferrite choke, such as the JW  
Miller FB20009-3B, is recommended between these supply  
lines when a common source is used for them.  
2.6.2 Thermal Management  
The ADC08D1020 is capable of impressive speeds and per-  
formance at very low power levels for its speed. However, the  
power consumption is still high enough to require attention to  
thermal management. For reliability reasons, the die temper-  
ature should be kept to a maximum of 130°C. That is, TA  
(ambient temperature) plus ADC power consumption times  
θJA (junction to ambient thermal resistance) should not ex-  
As is the case with all high speed converters, the AD-  
C08D1020 should be assumed to have little power supply  
noise rejection. Any power supply used for digital circuitry in  
a system where a lot of digital power is being consumed  
should not be used to supply power to the ADC08D1020. The  
39

ceed 130°C. This is not a problem if the ambient temperature  
is kept to a maximum of +85°C as specified in the Operating  
Ratings section.  
land on the PCB. Such voids could increase the thermal re-  
sistance between the device and the thermal land on the  
board, which would cause the device to run hotter.  
Please note that the following are general recommendations  
for mounting exposed pad devices onto a PCB. This should  
be considered the starting point in PCB and assembly pro-  
cess development. It is recommended that the process be  
developed based upon past experience in package mounting.  
If it is desired to monitor die temperature, a temperature sen-  
sor may be mounted on the heat sink area of the board near  
the thermal vias. Allow for a thermal gradient between the  
temperature sensor and the ADC08D1020 die of θJC (Thermal  
Pad) times typical power consumption = 2.8 x 1.8 = 5°C. Al-  
lowing for 6°C, including some margin for temperature drop  
from the pad to the temperature sensor, then, would mean  
that maintaining a maximum pad temperature reading of 124°  
C will ensure that the die temperature does not exceed 130°  
C, assuming that the exposed pad of the ADC08D1020 is  
properly soldered down and the thermal vias are adequate.  
(The inaccuracy of the temperature sensor is in addition to the  
above calculation).  
The package of the ADC08D1020 has an exposed pad on its  
back that provides the primary heat removal path as well as  
excellent electrical grounding to the printed circuit board. The  
land pattern design for lead attachment to the PCB should be  
the same as for a conventional LQFP, but the exposed pad  
must be attached to the board to remove the maximum  
amount of heat from the package, as well as to ensure best  
product parametric performance.  
To maximize the removal of heat from the package, a thermal  
land pattern must be incorporated on the PC board within the  
footprint of the package. The exposed pad of the device must  
be soldered down to ensure adequate heat conduction out of  
the package. The land pattern for this exposed pad should be  
at least as large as the 5 x 5 mm of the exposed pad of the  
package and be located such that the exposed pad of the  
device is entirely over that thermal land pattern. This thermal  
land pattern should be electrically connected to ground. A  
clearance of at least 0.5 mm should separate this land pattern  
from the mounting pads for the package pins.  
2.7 LAYOUT AND GROUNDING  
Proper grounding and proper routing of all signals are essen-  
tial to ensure accurate conversion. A single ground plane  
should be used, instead of splitting the ground plane into ana-  
log and digital areas.  
Since digital switching transients are composed largely of  
high frequency components, the skin effect tells us that total  
ground plane copper weight will have little effect upon the  
logic-generated noise. Total surface area is more important  
than is total ground plane volume. Coupling between the typ-  
ically noisy digital circuitry and the sensitive analog circuitry  
can lead to poor performance that may seem impossible to  
isolate and remedy. The solution is to keep the analog cir-  
cuitry well separated from the digital circuitry.  
High power digital components should not be located on or  
near any linear component or power supply trace or plane that  
services analog or mixed signal components as the resulting  
common return current path could cause fluctuation in the  
analog input “ground” return of the ADC, causing excessive  
noise in the conversion result.  
Generally, we assume that analog and digital lines should  
cross each other at 90° to avoid getting digital noise into the  
analog path. In high frequency systems, however, avoid  
crossing analog and digital lines altogether. The input clock  
lines should be isolated from ALL other lines, analog AND  
digital. The generally-accepted 90° crossing should be avoid-  
ed as even a little coupling can cause problems at high  
frequencies. Best performance at high frequencies is ob-  
tained with a straight signal path.  
20206221  
FIGURE 17. Recommended Package Land Pattern  
Since a large aperture opening may result in poor release, the  
aperture opening should be subdivided into an array of small-  
er openings, similar to the land pattern of Figure 17.  
The analog input should be isolated from noisy signal traces  
to avoid coupling of spurious signals into the input. This is  
especially important with the low level drive required of the  
ADC08D1020. Any external component (e.g., a filter capaci-  
tor) connected between the converter's input and ground  
should be connected to a very clean point in the analog  
ground plane. All analog circuitry (input amplifiers, filters, etc.)  
should be separated from any digital components.  
To minimize junction temperature, it is recommended that a  
simple heat sink be built into the PCB. This is done by includ-  
ing a copper area of about 2 square inches (6.5 square cm)  
on the opposite side of the PCB. This copper area may be  
plated or solder coated to prevent corrosion, but should not  
have a conformal coating, which could provide some thermal  
insulation. Thermal vias should be used to connect these top  
and bottom copper areas. These thermal vias act as "heat  
pipes" to carry the thermal energy from the device side of the  
board to the opposite side of the board where it can be more  
effectively dissipated. The use of 9 to 16 thermal vias is rec-  
ommended.  
2.8 DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE  
The ADC08D1020 is a.c. tested and its dynamic performance  
is guaranteed. To meet the published specifications and avoid  
jitter-induced noise, the clock source driving the CLK input  
must exhibit low rms jitter. The allowable jitter is a function of  
the input frequency and the input signal level, as described in  
2.3 THE CLOCK INPUTS.  
The thermal vias should be placed on a 1.2 mm grid spacing  
and have a diameter of 0.30 to 0.33 mm. These vias should  
be barrel plated to avoid solder wicking into the vias during  
the soldering process as this wicking could cause voids in the  
solder between the package exposed pad and the thermal  
It is good practice to keep the ADC input clock line as short  
as possible, to keep it well away from any other signals and  
to treat it as a transmission line. Other signals can introduce  
jitter into the input clock signal. The clock signal can also in-

troduce noise into the analog path if not isolated from that  
path.  
2.10 COMMON APPLICATION PITFALLS  
Failure to write all register locations when using extend-  
ed control mode. When using the serial interface, all nine  
address locations must be written at least once with the de-  
fault or desired values before calibration and subsequent use  
of the ADC.  
Best dynamic performance is obtained when the exposed pad  
at the back of the package has a good connection to ground.  
This is because this path from the die to ground is a lower  
impedance than offered by the package pins.  
Driving the inputs (analog or digital) beyond the power  
supply rails. For device reliability, no input should go more  
than 150 mV below the ground pins or 150 mV above the  
supply pins. Exceeding these limits on even a transient basis  
may not only cause faulty or erratic operation, but may impair  
device reliability. It is not uncommon for high speed digital  
circuits to exhibit undershoot that goes more than a volt below  
ground. Controlling the impedance of high speed lines and  
terminating these lines in their characteristic impedance  
should control overshoot.  
2.9 USING THE SERIAL INTERFACE  
The ADC08D1020 may be operated in the non-extended con-  
trol (non-Serial Interface) mode or in the extended control  
mode. Table 10 and Table 11 describe the functions of pins  
3, 4, 14 and 127 in the non-extended control mode and the  
extended control mode, respectively.  
2.9.1 Non-Extended Control Mode Operation  
Non-extended control mode operation means that the Serial  
Interface is not active and all controllable functions are con-  
trolled with various pin settings. Pin 41 is the primary control  
of the extended control enable function. When pin 41 is logic  
high, the device is in the non-extended control mode. If pin 41  
is floating and pin 52 is floating or logic high, the extended  
control enable function is controlled by pin 14. The device has  
functions which are pin programmable when in the non-ex-  
tended control mode. An example is the full-scale range is  
controlled in the non-extended control mode by setting pin 14  
high or low. Table 10 indicates the pin functions of the AD-  
C08D1020 in the non-extended control mode.  
Care should be taken not to overdrive the inputs of the AD-  
C08D1020. Such practice may lead to conversion inaccura-  
cies and even to device damage.  
Incorrect analog input common mode voltage in the d.c.  
coupled mode. As discussed in 1.1.4 The Analog Inputs and  
2.2 THE ANALOG INPUT, the Input common mode voltage  
must remain within 50 mV of the VCMO output , which has a  
variability with temperature that must also be tracked. Distor-  
tion performance will be degraded if the input common mode  
voltage is more than 50 mV from VCMO  
.
Using an inadequate amplifier to drive the analog input.  
Use care when choosing a high frequency amplifier to drive  
the ADC08D1020 as many high speed amplifiers will have  
higher distortion than will the ADC08D1020, resulting in over-  
all system performance degradation.

Driving the VBG pin to change the reference voltage. As  
mentioned in 2.1 THE REFERENCE VOLTAGE, the refer-  
ence voltage is intended to be fixed by FSR pin or Full-Scale  
Voltage Adjust register settings. Over driving this pin will not  
change the full scale value, but can otherwise upset opera-  
tion.

Driving the clock input with an excessively high level  
signal. The ADC input clock level should not exceed the level  
described in the Operating Ratings Table or the input offset  
could change.  
Pin 3 can be either high or low in the non-extended control  
mode. See 1.2 NORMAL/EXTENDED CONTROL for more  
information.  
Pin 4 can be high or low or can be left floating in the non-  
extended control mode. In the non-extended control mode,  
pin 4 high or low defines the edge at which the output data  
transitions. See 2.4.3 Output Edge Synchronization for more  
information. If this pin is floating, the output clock (DCLK) is a  
DDR (Double Data Rate) clock (see 1.1.5.3 Single Data Rate  
and Double Data Rate) and the output edge synchronization  
is irrelevant since data is clocked out on both DCLK edges.  
Inadequate input clock levels. As described in 2.3 THE  
CLOCK INPUTS, insufficient input clock levels can result in  
poor performance. Excessive input clock levels could result  
in the introduction of an input offset.  
Using a clock source with excessive jitter, using an ex-  
cessively long input clock signal trace, or having other  
signals coupled to the input clock signal trace. This will  
cause the sampling interval to vary, causing excessive output  
noise and a reduction in SNR performance.  
Pin 127, if it is high or low in the non-extended control mode,  
sets the calibration delay. If pin 127 is floating, the calibration  
delay is the same as it would be with this pin low and the  
converter performs dual edge sampling (DES).  
Failure to provide adequate heat removal. As described in  
2.6.2 Thermal Management, it is important to provide ade-  
quate heat removal to ensure device reliability. This can be  
done either with adequate air flow or the use of a simple heat  
sink built into the board. The backside pad should be ground-  
ed for best performance.
