The ADC contains several features designed to maximize  
flexibility and minimize system cost, such as programmable  
clock and data alignment and programmable digital test pattern  
generation.  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The available digital test patterns include built-in deterministic  
and pseudorandom patterns, along with custom user-defined test  
patterns entered via the serial port interface (SPI).  
The AD9249 is a 16-channel, 14-bit, 65 MSPS analog-to-digital  
converter (ADC) with an on-chip sample-and-hold circuit that  
is designed for low cost, low power, small size, and ease of use.  
The device operates at a conversion rate of up to 65 MSPS and  
is optimized for outstanding dynamic performance and low power  
in applications where a small package size is critical.  
The AD9249 is available in an RoHS-compliant, 144-ball CSP-  
BGA. It is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C  
to +85°C. This product is protected by a U.S. patent.  
The ADC requires a single 1.8 V power supply and an LVPECL-/  
CMOS-/LVDS-compatible sample rate clock for full performance  
operation. No external reference or driver components are  
required for many applications.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. Small Footprint. Sixteen ADCs are contained in a small,  
10 mm × 10 mm package.  
2. Low Power. 35 mW/channel at 20 MSPS with scalable power  
options.  
3. Ease of Use. Data clock outputs (DCO 1, DCO 2) operate  
at frequencies of up to 455 MHz and support double data  
rate (DDR) operation.  
The AD9249 automatically multiplies the sample rate clock for the  
appropriate LVDS serial data rate. Data clock outputs (DCO 1,  
DCO 2) for capturing data on the output and frame clock outputs  
(FCO 1, FCO 2) for signaling a new output byte are provided.  
Individual channel power-down is supported, and the device  
typically consumes less than 2 mW when all channels are disabled.  
4. User Flexibility. SPI control offers a wide range of flexible  
features to meet specific system requirements.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
the output stage of the driving source. In addition, low Q inductors  
or ferrite beads can be placed on each leg of the input to reduce  
high differential capacitance at the analog inputs and, therefore,  
achieve the maximum bandwidth of the ADC. Such use of low  
Q inductors or ferrite beads is required when driving the converter  
front end at high IF frequencies. Place either a differential capacitor  
or two single-ended capacitors on the inputs to provide a matching  
passive network. This configuration ultimately creates a low-pass  
filter at the input to limit unwanted broadband noise. See the  
AN-742 Application Note, Frequency Domain Response of  
Switched-Capacitor ADCs; the AN-827 Application Note, A  
Resonant Approach to Interfacing Amplifiers to Switched-  
Capacitor ADCs; and the Analog Dialogue article Transformer-  
Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters(Volume 39,  
April 2005) for more information. In general, the precise values  
vary, depending on the application.  
The AD9249 is a multistage, pipelined ADC. Each stage  
provides sufficient overlap to correct for flash errors in the  
preceding stage. The quantized outputs from each stage are  
combined into a final 14-bit result in the digital correction  
logic. The serializer transmits this converted data in a 14-bit  
output. The pipelined architecture permits the first stage to  
operate with a new input sample while the remaining stages  
operate with preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising  
edge of the clock.  
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low  
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched capacitor DAC  
and an interstage residue amplifier (for example, a multiplying  
digital-to-analog converter (MDAC)). The residue amplifier  
magnifies the difference between the reconstructed DAC output  
and the flash input for the next stage in the pipeline. One bit of  
redundancy is used in each stage to facilitate digital correction  
of flash errors. The last stage simply consists of a flash ADC.  
Input Common Mode  
The analog inputs of the AD9249 are not internally dc biased.  
Therefore, in ac-coupled applications, the user must provide  
this bias externally. For optimum performance, set the device  
so that VCM = AVDD/2. However, the device can function over  
a wider range with reasonable performance, as shown in  
Figure 33.  
The output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and  
passes the data to the output buffers. The data is then serialized  
and aligned to the frame and data clocks.  
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS  
The analog input to the AD9249 is a differential switched  
capacitor circuit designed for processing differential input signals.  
This circuit can support a wide common-mode range while  
maintaining excellent performance. By using an input common-  
mode voltage of midsupply, users can minimize signal dependent  
errors and achieve optimum performance.  
An on-chip, common-mode voltage reference is included in the  
design and is available at the VCMx pin. Decouple the VCMx pin  
to ground using a 0.1 µF capacitor, as described in the Applications  
Information section.  
Maximum SNR performance is achieved by setting the ADC to  
the largest span in a differential configuration. In the case of the  
AD9249, the largest available input span is 2 V p-p.

The clock signal alternately switches the input circuit between  
sample mode and hold mode (see Figure 32). When the input  
circuit is switched to sample mode, the signal source must be  
capable of charging the sample capacitors and settling within  
one-half of a clock cycle. A small resistor, in series with each

Differential Input Configurations  
Internal Reference Connection  
There are several ways to drive the AD9249, either actively or  
passively. However, optimum performance is achieved by driving  
the analog inputs differentially. Using a differential double balun  
configuration to drive the AD9249 provides excellent performance  
and a flexible interface to the ADC (see Figure 35) for baseband  
applications. Similarly, differential transformer coupling also  
provides excellent performance (see Figure 36).  
A comparator within the AD9249 detects the potential at the  
SENSE pin and configures the reference into two possible  
modes, which are summarized in Table 9. If SENSE is grounded,  
the reference amplifier switch is connected to the internal resistor  
divider (see Figure 34), setting VREF to 1.0 V.

AD9249  
If the internal reference of the AD9249 is used to drive multiple  
converters to improve gain matching, the loading of the reference  
by the other converters must be considered. Figure 37 shows  
how the internal reference voltage is affected by loading.

CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS  
For optimum performance, clock the AD9249 sample clock inputs,  
CLK+ and CLK−, with a differential signal. The signal is typically  
ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins via a transformer or  
capacitors. These pins are biased internally (see Figure 25) and  
require no external bias.

The AD9249 has a flexible clock input structure. The clock input  
can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal. Regardless  
of the type of signal being used, clock source jitter is of the  
utmost concern, as described in the Jitter Considerations section.  
Figure 39 and Figure 40 show two preferred methods for clocking  
the AD9249 (at clock rates of up to 520 MHz prior to the internal  
clock divider). A low jitter clock source is converted from a single-  
ended signal to a differential signal using either an RF transformer  
or an RF balun.

The RF balun configuration is recommended for clock frequencies  
from 65 MHz to 520 MHz, and the RF transformer is recom-  
mended for clock frequencies from 10 MHz to 200 MHz. The  
antiparallel Schottky diodes across the transformer/balun  
secondary winding limit clock excursions into the AD9249 to  
approximately 0.8 V p-p differential.  
Figure 37. VREF Error vs. Load Current  
External Reference Operation  
The use of an external reference may be necessary to enhance  
the gain accuracy of the ADC or improve thermal drift charac-  
teristics. Figure 38 shows the typical drift characteristics of the  
internal reference in 1.0 V mode.  
This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of the clock  
from feeding through to other portions of the AD9249 while  
preserving the fast rise and fall times of the signal that are critical  
to achieving a low jitter performance. However, the diode capaci-  
tance comes into play at frequencies above 500 MHz. Take care  
when choosing the appropriate signal limiting diode.

When the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD, the internal reference is  
disabled, allowing the use of an external reference. An internal  
reference buffer loads the external reference with an equivalent  
7.5 kΩ load (see Figure 31). The internal buffer generates the  
positive and negative full-scale references for the ADC core.  
Therefore, limit the external reference to a maximum of 1.0 V.

AD9249  
Data Sheet  
If a low jitter clock source is not available, another option is to  
ac couple a differential PECL signal to the sample clock input  
pins, as shown in Figure 41. The AD9510/AD9511/AD9512/  
AD9513/AD9514/AD9515-x/AD9516-x/AD9517-x clock  
drivers offer excellent jitter performance.  
Clock Duty Cycle  
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a variety  
of internal timing signals and, as a result, may be sensitive to clock  
duty cycle. Commonly, a 5% tolerance is required on the clock  
duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance characteristics.  
The AD9249 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) that retimes  
the nonsampling (falling) edge, providing an internal clock signal  
with a nominal 50% duty cycle. This allows the user to provide  
a wide range of clock input duty cycles without affecting the per-  
formance of the AD9249. Noise and distortion performance are  
nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles with the DCS turned on.

Jitter on the rising edge of the input is still of concern and is not  
easily reduced by the internal stabilization circuit. The duty  
cycle control loop does not function for clock rates of less than  
20 MHz, nominally. The loop has a time constant associated  
with it that must be considered in applications in which the  
clock rate can change dynamically. A wait time of 1.5 µs to 5 µs  
is required after a dynamic clock frequency increase or decrease  
before the DCS loop is relocked to the input signal.  
Figure 41. Differential PECL Sample Clock (Up to 520 MHz)  
A third option is to ac couple a differential LVDS signal to the  
sample clock input pins, as shown in Figure 42. The AD9510/  
AD9511/AD9512/AD9513/AD9514/AD9515-x/AD9516-x/  
AD9517-x clock drivers offer excellent jitter performance.

In some applications, it may be acceptable to drive the sample  
clock inputs with a single-ended 1.8 V CMOS signal. In such  
applications, drive the CLK+ pin directly from a CMOS gate, and  
bypass the CLK− pin to ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor (see  
Figure 43).

The AD9249 contains an input clock divider with the ability  
to divide the input clock by integer values from 1 to 8.  
The AD9249 clock divider can be synchronized using the  
external SYNC input. Bit 0 and Bit 1 of Register 0x109 allow the  
clock divider to be resynchronized on every SYNC signal or  
only on the first SYNC signal after the register is written. A  
valid SYNC causes the clock divider to reset to its initial state.  
This synchronization feature allows the clock dividers of multiple  
devices to be aligned to guarantee simultaneous input sampling.

AD9249  
Treat the clock input as an analog signal in cases where aperture  
jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9249. Separate the  
clock driver power supplies from the ADC output driver supplies  
to avoid modulating the clock signal with digital noise. Low jitter,  
crystal controlled oscillators are excellent clock sources. If  
another type of source generates the clock (by gating, dividing, or  
another method), ensure that it is retimed by the original clock  
at the last step.  
DIGITAL OUTPUTS AND TIMING  
The AD9249 differential outputs conform to the ANSI-644 LVDS  
standard on default power-up. This can be changed to a low power,  
reduced signal option (similar to the IEEE 1596.3 standard) via  
the SPI. The LVDS driver current is derived on chip and sets the  
output current at each output equal to a nominal 3.5 mA. A 100 Ω  
differential termination resistor placed at the LVDS receiver  
inputs results in a nominal 350 mV swing (or 700 mV p-p  
differential) at the receiver.  
See the AN-501 Application Note, Aperture Uncertainty and  
ADC System Performance, and the AN-756 Application Note,  
Sampled Systems and the Effects of Clock Phase Noise and Jitter,  
for more in depth information about jitter performance as it  
relates to ADCs.  
When operating in reduced range mode, the output current  
reduces to 2 mA. This results in a 200 mV swing (or 400 mV p-p  
differential) across a 100 Ω termination at the receiver.  
The AD9249 LVDS outputs facilitate interfacing with LVDS  
receivers in custom ASICs and FPGAs for superior switching  
performance in noisy environments. Single point-to-point net  
topologies are recommended with a 100 Ω termination resistor  
placed as near to the receiver as possible. If there is no far end  
receiver termination or there is poor differential trace routing,  
timing errors may result. To avoid such timing errors, it is recom-  
mended that the trace length be less than 24 inches, with all traces  
the same length. Place the differential output traces as near to each  
other as possible. An example of the FCO and data stream with  
proper trace length and position is shown in Figure 46. Figure 47  
shows an LVDS output timing example in reduced range mode.  
POWER DISSIPATION AND POWER-DOWN MODE  
As shown in Figure 45, the power dissipated by the AD9249 is  
proportional to its sample rate and can be set to one of several  
power saving modes using Register 0x100, Bits[2:0].

The AD9249 is placed in power-down mode either by the SPI  
port or by asserting the PDWN pin high. In this state, the ADC  
typically dissipates 2 mW. During power-down, the output drivers  
are placed in a high impedance state. Asserting the PDWN pin  
low returns the AD9249 to its normal operating mode. Note  
that PDWN is referenced to the digital output driver supply  
(DRVDD) and should not exceed that supply voltage.

Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by  
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,  
and clock. The internal capacitors are discharged when the device  
enters power-down mode and then must be recharged when  
returning to normal operation. As a result, wake-up time is  
related to the time spent in power-down mode, and shorter  
power-down cycles result in proportionally shorter wake-up  
times. When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the  
ADC in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode  
allows the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered  
when faster wake-up times are required. See the Memory Map  
section for more details on using these features.

sharper rise and fall times on the data edges and is less prone to

Figure 49 shows an example of trace lengths exceeding 24 inches

reflects the decrease of the data eye opening as the edge deviates

Data from each ADC is serialized and provided on a separate  
channel in DDR mode. The data rate for each serial stream is equal  
to 14 bits times the sample clock rate, quantity divided by 2,  
with a maximum of 455 Mbps (14 bits × 65 MSPS)/2 = 455 Mbps.  
The lowest typical conversion rate is 10 MSPS. See the Memory  
Map section for details on enabling this feature.  
It is the responsibility of the user to determine if the waveforms  
meet the timing budget of the design when the trace lengths  
exceed 24 inches. Additional SPI options allow the user to further  
increase the internal termination (increasing the current) of all 16  
outputs to drive longer trace lengths, which can be achieved by

Data Sheet  
AD9249  
Two output clock types are provided to assist in capturing data  
from the AD9249. DCO 1 and DCO 2 clock the output data,  
and their frequency is equal to 7× the sample clock (CLK ) rate  
for the default mode of operation. Data is clocked out of the  
AD9249 and must be captured on the rising and falling edges of  
the DCO that supports double data rate (DDR) capturing. DCO 1  
is used to capture the D x1 (Bank 1) data; DCO 2 is used to  
capture the D x2 (Bank 2) data. FCO 1 and FCO 2 signal the  
start of a new output byte, and the frequency is equal to the sample  
clock rate. FCO 1 frames the D x1 (Bank 1) data; FCO 2  
frames the D x2 (Bank 2) data (see Figure 3 and Figure 4).  
A 12-bit serial stream can also be initiated from the SPI. This  
allows the user to implement and test compatibility to lower  
resolution systems. When changing the resolution to a 12-bit  
serial stream, the data stream is shortened. See Figure 4 for the  
12-bit example.  
In default mode, as shown in Figure 3, the MSB is first in the  
data output serial stream. This can be inverted so that the LSB is  
first in the data output serial stream by using the SPI.  
There are 12 digital output test pattern options available that can  
be initiated through the SPI. This is a useful feature when validating  
receiver capture and timing (see Table 11 for the output bit  
sequencing options that are available). Some test patterns have  
two serial sequential words and can alternate in various ways,  
depending on the test pattern chosen. Note that some patterns  
do not adhere to the data format select option. In addition, custom  
user-defined test patterns can be assigned in Register 0x19,  
Register 0x1A, Register 0x1B, and Register 0x1C.  
When the SPI is used, the DCO phase can be adjusted in 60°  
increments relative to one data cycle (30° relative to one DCO  
cycle). This enables the user to refine system timing margins, if  
required. The default DCO 1 and DCO 2 to output data edge  
timing, as shown in Figure 3, is 180° relative to one data cycle  
(90° relative to one DCO cycle).

AD9249  
Data Sheet  
The PN sequence short pattern produces a pseudorandom bit  
sequence that repeats itself every 29 − 1 or 511 bits. Refer to  
Section 5.1 of the ITU-T 0.150 (05/96) standard for a description  
of the PN sequence and how it is generated. The seed value is all  
1s (see Table 12 for the initial values). The output is a parallel  
representation of the serial PN9 sequence in MSB-first format.  
The first output word is the first 14 bits of the PN9 sequence in  
MSB aligned form.  
SCLK/DTP Pin  
The SCLK/DTP pin can enable a single digital test pattern if it  
and the CSB1 and CSB2 pins are held high during device power-  
up. When SCLK/DTP is tied to AVDD, the ADC channel outputs  
shift out the following pattern: 10 0000 0000 0000. The FCO 1,  
FCO 2, DCO 1, and DCO 2 pins function normally while all  
channels shift out the repeatable test pattern. This pattern allows  
the user to perform timing alignment adjustments among the  
FCO 1, FCO 2, DCO 1, DCO 2, and output data. The SCLK/  
DTP pin has an internal 30 kΩ resistor to GND. It can be left  
unconnected for normal operation.

The PN sequence long pattern produces a pseudorandom  
bit sequence that repeats itself every 223 − 1 or 8,388,607 bits.  
Refer to Section 5.6 of the ITU-T 0.150 (05/96) standard for a  
description of the PN sequence and how it is generated. The  
seed value is all 1s (see Table 12 for the initial values) and the  
AD9249 inverts the bit stream with relation to the ITU standard.  
The output is a parallel representation of the serial PN23 sequence  
in MSB-first format. The first output word is the first 14 bits of the  
PN23 sequence in MSB aligned format.  
Additional and custom test patterns can also be observed when  
commanded from the SPI port. Consult the Memory Map section  
for information about the options that are available.  
CSB1 and CSB2 Pins  
The CSB1 and CSB2 pins are tied to AVDD for applications that  
do not require SPI mode operation. Tying CSB1 and CSB2 high  
causes all SCLK and SDIO SPI communication information to be  
ignored.  
Consult the Memory Map section for information on how to  
change these additional digital output timing features through  
the SPI.  
CSB1 selects/deselects SPI circuitry affecting outputs D A1 to  
D H1 (Bank 1). CSB2 selects/deselects SPI circuitry affecting  
outputs D A2 to D H2 (Bank 2).  
SDIO/DFS Pin  
For applications that do not require SPI mode operation, the CSB1  
and CSB2 pins are tied to AVDD, and the SDIO/DFS pin controls  
the output data format select as described in Table 13.  
It is recommended that CSB1 and CSB2 be controlled with the  
same signal; that is, tie them together. In this way, whether tying  
them to AVDD or selecting SPI functionality, both banks of ADCs  
are controlled identically and are always in the same state.

from the digital back-end blocks and the test pattern is run  
The AD9249 includes a built-in test feature designed to enable  
verification of the integrity of each data output channel, as well  
as to facilitate board level debugging. Various output test modes  
are provided to place predictable values on the outputs of the  
AD9249.  
through the output formatting block. Some of the test patterns  
are subject to output formatting, and some are not. The PN  
generators from the PN sequence tests can be reset by setting  
Bit 4 or Bit 5 of Register 0x0D. These tests can be performed  
with or without an analog signal (if present, the analog signal is  
ignored), but they do require an encode clock. For more  
information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to  
High Speed ADCs via SPI.  
OUTPUT TEST MODES  
The output test modes are described in Table 11 and controlled by  
the output test mode bits at Address 0x0D. When an output test  
mode is enabled, the analog section of the ADC is disconnected

SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)  
Other modes involving the CSB1 and CSB2 pins are available.  
To permanently enable the device, hold CSB1 and CSB2 low  
indefinitely; this is called streaming. CSB1 and CSB2 can stall  
high between bytes to allow additional external timing. Tie CSB1  
and CSB2 high to place SPI functions in high impedance mode.  
This mode turns on any SPI secondary pin functions.  
The AD9249 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to configure  
the converter for specific functions or operations through a  
structured register space provided inside the ADC. The SPI  
offers the user added flexibility and customization, depending on  
the application. Addresses are accessed via the serial port and  
can be written to or read from via the port. Memory is organized  
into bytes that can be further divided into fields, which are docu-  
mented in the Memory Map section. For general operational  
information, see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to  
High Speed ADCs via SPI. SPI information specific to the AD9249  
is found in the AD9249 datasheet and takes precedence over the  
general information found in the AN-877 Application Note.  
It is recommended that CSB1 and CSB2 be controlled with the  
same signal by tying them together. In this way, whether tying  
them to AVDD or selecting SPI functionality, both banks of ADCs  
are controlled identically and are always in the same state.  
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.  
Data follows the instruction phase, and its length is determined  
by the W0 and W1 bits.  
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI  
Four pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK/DTP pin  
(SCLK functionality), the SDIO/DFS pin(SDIO functionality),  
and the CSB1 and CSB2 pins (see Table 15). SCLK (a serial  
clock) is used to synchronize the read and write data presented  
from and to the ADC. SDIO (serial data input/output) serves a  
dual function that allows data to be sent to and read from the  
internal ADC memory map registers. CSB1 and CSB2 (chip  
select bar) are active low controls that enable or disable the read  
and write cycles.  
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines  
whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing  
the serial port to both program the chip and read the contents  
of the on-chip memory. The first bit of the first byte in a multibyte  
serial data transfer frame indicates whether a read command or a  
write command is issued. If the instruction is a readback operation,  
performing a readback causes the serial data input/output (SDIO)  
pin to change direction from an input to an output at the  
appropriate point in the serial frame.  
Input data registers on the rising edge of SCLK, and output data  
transmits on the falling edge. After the address information passes  
to the converter requesting a read, the SDIO line transitions from  
an input to an output within 1/2 of a clock cycle. This timing  
ensures that when the falling edge of the next clock cycle  
occurs, data can be safely placed on this serial line for the  
controller to read.

SCLK  
Serial clock. The serial shift clock input, which is  
(SCLK/DTP) used to synchronize serial interface reads and

SDIO  
Serial data input/output. A dual-purpose pin that  
(SDIO/DFS) serves as an input or an output, depending on the  
instruction being sent and the relative position in  
the timing frame.  
All data is composed of 8-bit words. Data can be sent in MSB  
first mode or in LSB-first mode. MSB-first mode is the default  
on power-up and can be changed via the SPI port configuration  
register. For more information about this and other features,  
see the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed  
ADCs via SPI.

The falling edge of CSB1 and/or CSB2, in conjunction with the  
rising edge of SCLK, determines the start of the framing. For an

digital test pattern, and power-down feature control. In this  
mode, connect CSB1 and CSB2 to AVDD, which disables the  
serial port interface.  
The pins described in Table 15 comprise the physical interface  
between the user programming device and the serial port of the  
AD9249. The SCLK/DTP pin (SCLK functionality) and the CSB1  
and CSB2 pins function as inputs when using the SPI interface.  
The SDIO/DFS pin (SDIO functionality) is bidirectional,  
functioning as an input during write phases and as an output  
during readback.  
When the device is in SPI mode, the PDWN pin (if enabled)  
remains active. For SPI control of power-down, set the PDWN pin  
to its inactive state (low).  
SPI ACCESSIBLE FEATURES  
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either  
FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI configuration  
is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note, Micro-  
controller-Based Serial Port Interface (SPI) Boot Circuit.  
Table 16 provides a brief description of the general features that  
are accessible via the SPI. These features are described further in  
the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via  
SPI. The AD9249 device-specific features are described in detail  
in the Memory Map Register Descriptions section following  
Table 17, the external memory map register table.  
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full  
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the  
SCLK signal, the CSB1 and CSB2 signals, and the SDIO signal  
are typically asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these  
signals can degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI  
bus is used for other devices, it may be necessary to provide  
buffers between this bus and the AD9249 to prevent these  
signals from transitioning at the converter inputs during critical  
sampling periods.

MEMORY MAP  
Default Values  
READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE  
After the AD9249 is reset (via Bit 5 and Bit 2 of Address 0x00),  
the registers are loaded with default values. The default values  
for the registers are listed in the Default Value (Hex) column  
of Table 17, the memory map register table.  
Each row in the memory map register table has eight bit locations.  
The memory map is divided into three sections: the chip con-  
figuration registers (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02); the device  
index and transfer registers (Address 0x04, Address 0x05, and  
Address 0xFF); and the global ADC function registers, including  
setup, control, and test (Address 0x08 to Address 0x109).  
Logic Levels  
An explanation of logic level terminology follows:  
The memory map register table (see Table 17) lists the default  
hexadecimal value for each hexadecimal address shown. The  
column with the Bit 7 (MSB) heading is the MSB of the binary  
8-bit representation. For example, Address 0x05, the Device  
Index 1 register, has a hexadecimal default value of 0x3F. This  
means that in Address 0x05, Bits[7:6] = 0, and the remaining  
bits, Bits[5:0], = 1. This setting is the default channel index  
setting. The default value results in all specified ADC channels  
receiving the next write command. For more information on  
this function and others, see the AN-877 Application Note,  
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This application note  
details the functions controlled by Register 0x00 to Register 0xFF.  
The remaining registers are documented in the Memory Map  
Register Descriptions section.  
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or  
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.”  
“Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or  
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.”  
Channel Specific Registers  
Some channel setup functions can be programmed independently  
for each channel. In such cases, channel address locations are  
internally duplicated for each channel; that is, each channel has  
its own set of registers. These registers and bits are designated in  
Table 17 as local. Access these local registers and bits by setting  
the appropriate data channel bits (A1, A2 through H1, H2) and  
the clock channel bits (DCO 1, DCO 2 and FCO 1, FCO 2),  
found in Register 0x04 and Register 0x05. If all the valid bits are  
set in Register 0x04 and Register 0x05, the subsequent write to a  
local register affects the registers of all the data channels and the  
DCO x/FCO x clock channels. In a read cycle, set only one  
channel (A1, A2 through H1, H2) to read one local register. If all  
the bits are set during a SPI read cycle, the device returns the  
value for Channel A1.  
Open Locations  
All address and bit locations that are not listed in Table 17 are  
not currently supported for this device. Write the unused bits of  
a valid address location with 0s. Writing to these locations is  
required only when some of the bits of an address location are  
valid (for example, Address 0x05). Do not write to an address  
location if the entire address location is open or if the address is  
not listed in Table 17 (for example, Address 0x13).  
Registers and bits that are designated as global in Table 17 are  
applicable to the channel features for which independent settings  
are not allowed; thus, they affect the entire device. The settings  
in Register 0x04 and Register 0x05 do not affect the global  
registers and bits.

The AD9249 uses a 3-wire (bidirectional SDIO) interface and 16-bit addressing. Therefore, Bit 0 and Bit 7 in Register 0x00 are set to 0,  
and Bit 3 and Bit 4 are set to 1. When Bit 5 in Register 0x00 is set high, the SPI enters a soft reset where all of the user registers revert to  
their default values and Bit 2 is automatically cleared.

Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.  
Bit 6—LVDS-ANSI/LVDS-IEEE Option  
Setting Bit 6 = 1 chooses the LVDS-IEEE (reduced range)  
option. (The default setting is LVDS-ANSI.) As described in  
Table 18, when either LVDS-ANSI mode or the LVDS-IEEE  
reduced range link is selected, the user can select the driver  
termination resistor in Register 0x15, Bits[5:4]. The driver  
current is automatically selected to give the proper output swing.  
Device Index (Register 0x04 and Register 0x05)  
There are certain features in the map that can be set independently  
for each channel, whereas other features apply globally to all  
channels (depending on context), regardless of which are selected.  
Bits[3:0] in Register 0x04 and Register 0x05 select which individual  
data channels are affected. The output clock channels are selected  
in Register 0x05, as well. A smaller subset of the independent  
feature list can be applied to those devices.

Bit 5—External Power-Down Pin Function  
Bit 2—Output Invert  
When set (Bit 5 = 1), the external PDWN pin initiates standby

initiates full power-down mode.  
Setting Bit 2 = 1 inverts the output bit stream.

Bits[4:2]—Open  
By default, setting Bit 0 = 1 sends the data output in twos  
complement format. Clearing this bit (Bit 0 = 0) changes the  
output mode to offset binary.  
Bits[1:0]—Internal Power-Down Mode  
In normal operation (Bits[1:0] = 00), all ADC channels are active.  
In full power-down mode (Bits[1:0] = 01), the digital datapath  
clocks are disabled and the digital datapath is reset. Outputs are  
disabled.  
Output Adjust (Register 0x15)  
Bits[7:6]—Open  
Bits[5:4]—Output Driver Termination  
In standby mode (Bits[1:0] = 10), the digital datapath clocks  
and the outputs are disabled.  
These bits allow the user to select the internal output driver  
termination resistor.  
During a digital reset (Bits[1:0] = 11), all the digital datapath clocks  
and the outputs (where applicable) on the chip are reset, except  
the SPI port. Note that the SPI is always left under control of the  
user; that is, it is never automatically disabled or in reset (except  
by power-on reset).  
Bits[3:1]—Open  
Bit 0—FCO x, DCO x Output Drive  
Bit 0 of the output adjust register controls the drive strength on  
the LVDS driver of the FCO 1, FCO 2, DCO 1, and DCO 2  
outputs only. The default value (Bit 0 = 0) sets the drive to 1×.  
Increase the drive to 2× by setting the appropriate channel bit in  
Register 0x05 and then setting Bit 0 = 1. These features cannot be  
used with the output driver termination selected. The termination  
selection takes precedence over the 2× driver strength on FCO 1,  
FCO 2, DCO 1, and DCO 2 when both the output driver  
termination and output drive are selected.

Bit 2—Chop Mode  
For applications that are sensitive to offset voltages and other  
low frequency noise, such as homodyne or direct conversion  
receivers, chopping in the first stage of the AD9249 is a feature  
that can be enabled by setting Bit 2 = 1. In the frequency domain,  
chopping translates offsets and other low frequency noise to  
fCLK/2, where they can be filtered.

Resolution/Sample Rate Override (Register 0x100)  
This register is designed to allow the user to downgrade the device  
(that is, establish lower power) for applications that do not require  
full sample rate. Settings in this register are not initialized until Bit 0  
of the transfer register (Register 0xFF) is set to 1.  
Bits[6:4]—Input Clock Phase Adjust  
When the clock divider (Register 0x0B) is used, the applied  
clock is at a higher frequency than the internal sampling clock.  
Bits[6:4] determine at which phase of the external clock the  
sampling occurs. This is applicable only when the clock divider  
is used. It is prohibited to select a value for Bits[6:4] that is  
greater than the value of Bits[2:0], Register 0x0B. See Table 19  
for more information.  
This function does not affect the sample rate; it affects the  
maximum sample rate capability of the ADC, as well as the  
resolution.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
DESIGN GUIDELINES  
Crosstalk Between Inputs  
To avoid crosstalk between inputs, consider the following  
guidelines:  
Before starting the design and layout of the AD9249 as a system,  
it is recommended that the designer become familiar with these  
guidelines, which describe the special circuit connections and  
layout requirements that are needed for certain pins.  
When routing inputs, sequentially alternate input channels  
on the top and bottom (or other layer) of the board.  
Ensure that the top channels have no vias within 5 mm of  
any other input channel via.  
For bottom channels, use a via-in-pad to minimize top  
metal coupling between channels.  
Avoid running input traces parallel with each other that are  
nearer than 2 mm apart.  
When possible, lay out traces orthogonal to each other and  
to any other traces that are not dc.  
POWER AND GROUND RECOMMENDATIONS  
When connecting power to the AD9249, it is recommended  
that two separate 1.8 V supplies be used. Use one supply for  
analog (AVDD); use a separate supply for the digital outputs  
(DRVDD). For both AVDD and DRVDD, use several different  
decoupling capacitors for both high and low frequencies. Place  
these capacitors near the point of entry at the PCB level and  
near the pins of the device, with minimal trace length.  
Secondhand or indirect coupling may occur through non-  
related dc traces that bridge the distance between two traces  
or vias.  
A single PCB ground plane is typically sufficient when using the  
AD9249. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the  
PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance  
is easily achieved.  
Coupling of Digital Output Switching Noise to Analog  
Inputs and Clock  
BOARD LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS  
To avoid the coupling of digital output switching noise to the  
analog inputs and the clock, use the following guidelines:  
For optimal performance, give special consideration to the AD9249  
board layout. The high channel count and small footprint of the  
AD9249 create a dense configuration that must be managed for  
matters relating to crosstalk and switching noise.  
Vias on the outputs are a main conduit of noise to the vias  
on the inputs. Maintain 5 mm of separation between any  
output via and any input via.  
Sources of Coupling  
Place the encode clock traces on the top surface. Vias are  
not recommended in the clock traces. However, if they are  
required, ensure that there are no clock trace vias within  
5 mm of any input via or output via.  
Trace pairs interfere with each other by inductive coupling and  
capacitive coupling. Use the following guidelines:  
Inductive coupling is current induced in a trace by a  
changing magnetic field from an adjacent trace, caused by  
its changing current flow. Mitigate this effect by making  
traces orthogonal to each other whenever possible and by  
increasing the distance between them.  
Capacitive coupling is charge induced in a trace by the  
changing electric field of an adjacent trace. Mitigate this  
effect by minimizing facing areas, increasing the distance  
between traces, or changing dielectric properties.  
Through-vias are particularly good conduits for both types  
of coupling and must be used carefully.  
Adjacent trace runs on the same layer may cause unbalanced  
coupling between channels.  
Traces on one layer should be separated by a plane (ac ground)  
from the traces on another layer. Significant coupling occurs  
through gaps in that plane, such as the setback around  
through-vias.  
Place output surface traces (not imbedded between planes)  
orthogonal to one another as much as possible. Avoid parallel  
output to input traces within 2 mm.  
Route digital output traces away from the analog input side  
of the board.  
Coupling among outputs is not a critical issue, but separation  
between these high speed output pairs increases the noise  
margin of the signals and is good practice.

AD9249  
CLOCK STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS  
VCM  
When powered on, the AD9249 enters an initialization phase  
where an internal state machine sets up the biases and the registers  
for proper operation. During the initialization process, the AD9249  
needs a stable clock. If the ADC clock source is not present or not  
stable during ADC power-up, the state machine is disrupted and  
the ADC starts up in an unknown state. To correct this, reinvoke an  
initialization sequence after the ADC clock is stable by issuing  
a digital reset using Register 0x08. In the default configuration  
(internal VREF, ac-coupled input) where VREF and VCM are supplied  
by the ADC itself, a stable clock during power-up is sufficient.  
When VREF or VCM is supplied by an external source, it, too, must  
be stable at power-up. Otherwise, a subsequent digital reset, using  
Register 0x08, is needed. The pseudocode sequence for a digital  
reset follows:  
Decouple the VCMx pin to ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor.  
REFERENCE DECOUPLING  
Decouple the VREF pin externally to ground with a low ESR,  
1.0 μF capacitor in parallel with a low ESR, 0.1 μF ceramic  
capacitor.  
SPI PORT  
Ensure that the SPI port is inactive during periods when the full  
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the  
SCLK, CSB1, CSB2, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous  
to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter  
performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices,  
it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the  
AD9249 to prevent these signals from transitioning at the converter  
inputs during critical sampling periods.
