The AD9260 operates on a single +5 V supply, typically con-  
suming 585 mW of power. A power scaling circuit is provided  
allowing the AD9260 to operate at power consumption levels as  
low as 150 mW at reduced clock and data rates. The AD9260 is  
available in a 44-lead MQFP package and is specified to operate  
over the industrial temperature range.  
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION  
The AD9260 is a 16-bit, high-speed oversampled analog-to-  
digital converter (ADC) that offers exceptional dynamic range  
over a wide bandwidth. The AD9260 is manufactured on an  
advanced CMOS process. High dynamic range is achieved with  
an oversampling ratio of 8× through the use of a proprietary  
technique that combines the advantages of sigma-delta and  
pipeline converter technologies.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
The AD9260 is fabricated on a very cost effective CMOS  
process. High-speed, precision mixed-signal analog circuits are  
combined with high-density digital filter circuits.  
The AD9260 is a switched-capacitor ADC with a nominal full-  
scale input range of 4 V. It offers a differential input with 60 dB  
of common-mode rejection of common-mode signals. The sig-  
nal range of each differential input is 1 V centered on a 2.0 V  
common-mode level.  
The AD9260 offers a complete single-chip 16-bit sampling  
ADC with a 2.5 MHz output data rate in a 44-lead MQFP.  
Selectable Internal Decimation Filtering—The AD9260  
provides a high-performance decimation filter with 0.004 dB  
passband ripple and 85 dB of stopband attenuation. The filter  
is configurable with options for 1×, 2×, 4×, and 8× decimation.  
The on-chip decimation filter is configured for maximum per-  
formance and flexibility. A series of three half-band FIR filter  
stages provide 8× decimation filtering with 85 dB of stopband  
attenuation and 0.004 dB of passband ripple. An onboard digi-  
tal multiplexer allows the user to access data from the various  
stages of the decimation filter.  
Power Scaling—The AD9260 consumes a low 585 mW of power  
at 16-bit resolution and 2.5 MHz output data rate. Its power  
can be scaled down to as low as 150 mW at reduced clock rates.  
The on-chip programmable reference and reference buffer am-  
plifier are configured for maximum accuracy and flexibility. An  
external reference can also be chosen to suit the user’s specific  
dc accuracy and drift requirements.  
Single Supply— Both of the analog and digital portions of the  
AD9260 can operate off of a single +5 V supply simplifying  
system power supply design. The digital logic will also accom-  
modate a single +3 V supply for reduced power.

NOTE: The composite filter undecimated coefficients (i.e.,  
impulse response) in the 4× decimation mode can be determined  
by convolving the first stage filter taps with a zero stuffed”  
version of the second stage filter taps (i.e., insert one zero be-  
tween samples). Similarly, the composite filter coefficients in the  
8× decimation mode can be determined by convolving the taps  
of the composite 4× decimation mode (as previously deter-  
mined) with a zero stuffedversion of the third stage filter taps  
(i.e., insert three zeros between samples).

*Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-  
nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the  
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational  
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings  
for extended periods may effect device reliability.  
CAUTION  
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily  
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.  
Although the AD9260 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may  
occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD  
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

APERTURE JITTER  
DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATION  
Aperture jitter is the variation in aperture delay for successive  
samples and is manifested as noise on the input to the A/D.  
INTEGRAL NONLINEARITY (INL)  
INL refers to the deviation of each individual code from a line  
drawn from negative full scalethrough positive full scale.”  
The point used as negative full scaleoccurs 1/2 LSB before  
the first code transition. Positive full scaleis defined as a  
level 1 1/2 LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation  
is measured from the middle of each particular code to the true  
straight line.  
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (S/N+D, SINAD)  
RATIO  
S/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal  
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the  
Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc.  
The value for S/N+D is expressed in decibels.  
DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY (DNL, NO MISSING  
CODES)  
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB  
apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. Guaranteed  
no missing codes to 14-bit resolution indicates that all 16384  
codes, respectively, must be present over all operating ranges.  
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB)  
For a sine wave, SINAD can be expressed in terms of the num-  
ber of bits. Using the following formula,  
N = (SINAD 1.76)/6.02  
it is possible to get a measure of performance expressed as N,  
NOTE: Conventional INL and DNL measurements dont really  
apply to Σ∆ converters: the DNL looks continually better if  
longer data records are taken. For the AD9260, INL and DNL  
numbers are given as representative.  
the effective number of bits.  
Thus, effective number of bits for a device for sine wave inputs  
at a given input frequency can be calculated directly from its  
measured SINAD.  
ZERO ERROR  
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD)  
The major carry transition should occur for an analog value  
1/2 LSB below VINA = VINB. Zero error is defined as the  
deviation of the actual transition from that point.  
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic com-  
ponents to the rms value of the measured input signal and  
is expressed as a percentage or in decibels.  
GAIN ERROR  
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO (SNR)  
The first code transition should occur at an analog value  
1/2 LSB above negative full scale. The last transition should  
occur at an analog value 1 1/2 LSB below the nominal full scale.  
Gain error is the deviation of the actual difference between first  
and last code transitions and the ideal difference between first  
and last code transitions.  
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal to  
the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist  
frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The value  
for SNR is expressed in decibels.  
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR)  
SFDR is the difference in dB between the rms amplitude of the  
input signal and the peak spurious signal.  
TEMPERATURE DRIFT  
The temperature drift for zero error and gain error specifies the  
maximum change from the initial (+25°C) value to the value at  
TWO-TONE SFDR  
TMIN or TMAX  
.
The ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value  
of the peak spurious component. The peak spurious component  
may or may not be an IMD product. May be reported in dBc  
(i.e., degrades as signal level is lowered), or in dBFS (always  
related back to converter full scale).  
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION  
The specification shows the maximum change in full scale from  
the value with the supply at the minimum limit to the value with  
the supply at its maximum limit.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
The digital output driver register of the AD9260 features both  
READ and CHIP SELECT pins to allow easy interfacing. The  
digital supply of the AD9260 is designed to operate over a  
2.7 V to 5.25 V supply range, though 3 V supplies are recom-  
mended to minimize digital noise on the board. A DATA  
AVAILABLE pin allows the user to easily synchronize to the  
converters decimated output data rate. OUT-OF-RANGE  
(OTR) indication is given for an overflow in the pipelined A/D  
converter or digital filters. A RESETB function is provided to  
synchronize the converters decimated data and clear any over-  
flow condition in the analog integrators.  
The AD9260 utilizes a new analog-to-digital converter architec-  
ture to combine sigma-delta techniques with a high-speed,  
pipelined A/D converter. This topology allows the AD9260 to  
offer the high dynamic range associated with sigma-delta con-  
verters while maintaining very wide input signal bandwidth  
(1.25 MHz) at a very modest 8× oversampling ratio. Figure 53  
provides a block diagram of the AD9260. The differential  
analog input is fed into a second order, multibit sigma-delta  
modulator. This modulator features a 5-bit flash quantizer and  
5-bit feedback. In addition, a 12-bit pipelined A/D quantizes  
the input to the 5-bit flash to greater accuracy. A special digital  
modulation loop combines the output of the 12-bit pipelined  
A/D with the delayed output of the 5-bit flash to produce the  
equivalent response of a second order loop with a 12-bit  
quantizer and 12-bit feedback. The combination of a second  
order loop and multibit feedback provides inherent stability:  
the AD9260 is not prone to idle tones or full-scale idiosyncra-  
cies sometimes associated with higher order single bit sigma-  
delta modulators.  
An on-chip reference and reference buffer are included on the  
AD9260. The reference can be configured in either a 2.5 V  
mode (providing a 4 V pk-pk differential input full scale), a 1 V  
mode (providing a 1.6 V pk-pk differential input full scale), or  
programmed with an external resistor divider to provide any  
voltage level between 1 V and 2.5 V. However, optimum noise and  
distortion performance for the AD9260 can only be achieved with a  
2.5 V reference as shown in Figure 46.  
For users wishing to operate the part at reduced clock frequen-  
cies, the bias current of the AD9260 is designed to be scalable.  
This scaling is accomplished through use of the proper external  
resistor tied to the BIAS pin: the power can be reduced roughly  
proportionately to clock frequency by as much as 75% (for clock  
rates of 5 MHz). Refer to Figures 4143 and 4751 for charac-  
terization curves showing performance tradeoffs.  
The output of this 12-bit modulator is fed into the digital deci-  
mation filter. The voltage level on the MODE pin establishes  
the configuration for the digital filter. The user may bring the  
data out undecimated (at the clock rate), or at a decimation  
factor of 2×, 4×, or a full 8×. The spectra for these four cases  
are shown in Figures 5, 6, 7 and 8, all for a 100 kHz full-scale  
input and 20 MHz clock. The spectra of the undecimated  
output clearly shows the second order shaping characteristic of  
the quantization noise as it rises at frequencies above 1.25 MHz.  
ANALOG INPUT AND REFERENCE OVERVIEW  
Figure 54, a simplified model of the AD9260, highlights the  
relationship between the analog inputs, VINA, VINB and the  
reference voltage VREF. Like the voltage applied to the top of  
the resistor ladder in a flash A/D converter, the value VREF  
defines the maximum input voltage to the A/D converter. An  
internal reference buffer in the AD9260 scales the reference  
voltage VREF before it is applied internally to the AD9260  
The on-chip decimation filter provides excellent stopband rejec-  
tion to suppress any stray input signal between 1.25 MHz and  
18.75 MHz, substantially easing the requirements on any anti-  
aliasing filter for the analog input path. The decimation filters  
are integrated with symmetric FIR filter structures, providing a  
linear phase response and excellent passband flatness.

A/D core. The scale factor of this reference buffer is 0.8. Conse-  
quently, the maximum input voltage to the A/D core is +0.8 ×  
VREF. The minimum input voltage to the A/D core is auto-  
matically defined to be 0.8 × VREF. With this scale factor, the  
maximum differential input span of 4 V p-p is obtained with a  
VREF voltage of 2.5 V. A smaller differential input span may be  
obtained by using a VREF voltage of less than 2.5 V at the  
expense of ac performance (refer to Figure 46).  
ANALOG INPUT OPERATION  
The analog input structure of the AD9260 is optimized to meet  
the performance requirements for some of the most demanding  
communication and data acquisition applications. This input  
structure is composed of a switched-capacitor network that  
samples the input signal applied to pins VINA and VINB on  
every rising edge of the CLK pin. The input switched capaci-  
tors are charged to the input voltage during each period of  
CLK. The resulting charge, q, on these capacitors is equal to  
C × VIN, where C is the input capacitor. The change in charge  
on these capacitors, delta q, as the capacitors are charged from a  
previous sample of the input signal to the next sample, is ap-  
proximated in the following equation,  
+0.8VREF  
VINA

A/D CORE  
delta q ~ C × deltaVN = C × (VN VN2  
)
(4)  
VINB  
where VN represents the present sample of the input signal and  
VN2 represents the sample taken two clock cycles earlier. The  
average current flow into the input (provided from an external  
source) is given in the following equation,  
0.8VREF  
Figure 54. Simplified Input Model  
I = delta q/T ~ C × (VN VN2) × fCLOCK

INPUT SPAN  
where T represents the period of CLK and fCLOCK represents the  
frequency of CLK. Equations 4 and 5 provide simplifying ap-  
proximations of the operation of the analog input structure of  
the AD9260. A more exact, detailed description and analysis of  
the input operation is provided below.  
The AD9260 is implemented with a differential input structure.  
This structure allows the common-mode level (average voltage  
of the two input pins) of the input signal to be varied indepen-  
dently of the input span of the converter over a wide range, as  
shown in Figure 44. Specifically, the input to the A/D core is  
the difference of the voltages applied at the VINA and VINB  
input pins. Therefore, the equation,

INPUT COMPLIANCE RANGE  
In addition to the limitations on the differential span of the  
input signal indicated in Equation 2, an additional limitation is  
placed on the inputs by the analog input structure of the AD9260.  
The analog input structure bounds the valid operating range for  
VINA and VINB. The condition,  
Figure 55. Detailed Analog Input Structure  
Figure 55 illustrates the analog input structure of the AD9260.  
For the moment, ignore the presence of the parasitic capacitors  
CPA and CPB. The effects of these parasitic capacitors will be  
discussed near the end of this section. The switched capacitors,  
CS1 and CS2, sample the input voltages applied on pins VINA  
and VINB. These capacitors are connected to input pins VINA  
and VINB when CLK is low. When CLK rises, a sample of the  
input signal is taken on capacitors CS1 and CS2. When CLK is  
high, capacitors CS1 and CS2 are connected to the Analog  
Modulator. The modulator precharges capacitors CS1 and CS2  
to minimize the amount of charge required from any circuit  
used in combination with the AD9260 to drive input pins VINA  
and VINB. This reduces the input drive requirements of the  
analog circuitry driving pins VINA and VINB. The Analog  
Modulator precharges the voltages across capacitors CS1 and  
CS2, approximately equal to a delayed version of the input  
signal. When capacitors CS1 and CS2 are connected to input  
pins VINA and VINB, the differential charge, Q(n), on these  
capacitors is given in the following equation,  
AVSS +0.5 V < VINA < AVDD 0.5 V  
(3)  
AVSS +0.5 V < VINB < AVDD + 0.5 V  
where AVSS is nominally 0 V and AVDD is nominally +5 V,  
defines this requirement. Thus the valid inputs for VINA and  
VINB are any combination that satisfies both Equations 2 and  
3. Note, the clock clamping method used in the differential  
driver circuit shown in Figure 57 is sufficient for protecting the  
AD9260 in an undervoltage condition.  
For additional information showing the relationships between  
VINA, VINB, VREF and the digital output of the AD9260, see  
Table V.  
Refer to Table IV for a summary of the various analog input  
and reference configurations.

REV. B

AD9260  
where q1 and q2 are the individual charges stored on capacitors  
CS1 and CS2 respectively, and CS is the capacitance value of  
CS1 and CS2. When capacitors CS1 and CS2 are connected to  
the Analog Modulator during the preceding prechargeclock  
phase, the capacitors are precharged equal to an approximation  
of a previous sample of the input signal. Consequently the  
differential charge on these capacitors while CLK is high is  
given in the following equation,  
and CS2 when they are connected to input Pins VINA and  
VINB. The nonlinear junction capacitance of Cpb1 and Cpb2  
cause charge glitch energy that is nonlinearily related to the  
input signal. Therefore, linear settling is difficult to achieve  
unless the input source completely settles during one-half  
period of CLK. A portion of the glitch impulse energy kicked”  
back at the source is not linearly related to the input signal.  
Therefore, the best way to ensure that the input signal settles  
linearly is to use wide bandwidth circuitry, which settles as  
completely as possible from the glitch during one-half period of  
the CLK.  
Q(n1) = CS × VCORE(delay) + CS × Vdelta  
(7)  
where VCORE(delay) is the value of VCORE sampled during a  
previous period of CLK, and Vdelta is the sigma-delta error  
voltage left on the capacitors. Vdelta is a natural artifact of the  
sigma-delta feedback techniques utilized in the Analog Modula-  
tor of the AD9260. It is a small random voltage term that  
changes every clock period and varies from 0 to 0.05 × VREF.  
The AD9260 utilizes a proprietary clock-boosted boot-strapping  
technique to reduce the nonlinear parasitic capacitances of the  
internal CMOS switches. This technique improves the linearity  
of the input switches and reduces the nonlinear parasitic capaci-  
tance. Thus, this technique reduces the nonlinear glitch energy.  
The capacitance values for the input capacitors and parasitic  
capacitors for the input structure of the AD9260, as illustrated  
in Figure 55, are listed as follows.  
The analog circuitry used to drive the input pins of the AD9260  
must respond to the charge glitch that occurs when capacitors  
CS1 and CS2 are connected to input pins VINA and VINB. This  
circuitry must provide additional charge, qdelta, to capacitors  
CS1 and CS2, which is the difference between the precharged  
value, Q(n1), and the new value, Q(n), as given in the follow-  
ing equation,  
CS = 3.2 pF, Cpa = 6 pF, Cpb = 1 pF (where CS is the capaci-  
tance value of capacitors CS1 and CS2, Cpa is the value of  
capacitors Cpa1 and Cpa2, and Cpb is the value of capacitors  
Cpb1 and Cpb2). The total capacitance at each input pin is  
CIN = CS + Cpa + Cpb = 10.2 pF.  
Qdelta = Q(n) Q(n1)

Qdelta = CS × [VCOREVCORE(delay) + Vdelta]  
Input Driver Considerations  
The optimum noise and distortion performance of the AD9260 can  
ONLY be achieved when the AD9260 is driven differentially with a  
4 V input span . Since not all applications have a signal precon-  
ditioned for differential operation, there is often a need to per-  
form a single-ended-to-differential conversion. In the case of the  
AD9260, a single-ended-to-differential conversion is best realized  
using a differential op amp driver. Although a transformer will  
perform a similar function for ac signals, its usefulness is pre-  
cluded by its inability to directly drive the AD9260 and thus the  
additional requirement of an active low noise, low distortion  
buffer stage.  
DRIVING THE INPUT  
Transient Response  
The charge glitch occurs once at the beginning of every period  
of the input CLK (falling edge), and the sample is taken on  
capacitors CS1 and CS2 exactly one-half period later (rising  
edge). Figure 56 presents a typical input waveform applied to  
input Pins VINA and VINB of the AD9260.

Single-Ended-to-Differential Op Amp Driver  
There are two single-ended-to-differential op amp driver cir-  
cuits useful for driving the AD9260. The first circuit, shown in  
Figure 57, uses the AD8138 and represents the best choice in  
most applications. The AD8138 is a low-distortion differential  
ADC driver designed to convert a ground-referenced single-  
ended input signal to a differential output signal with a specified  
common-mode level for dc-coupling applications. It is capable  
of maintaining the typical THD and SFDR performance of the  
AD9260 with only a slight degradation in its noise performance  
in the 8× mode (i.e., SNR of 85 dB86 dB).  
VINA-VINB  
Figure 56. Typical Input Waveform  
Figure 56 illustrates the effect of the charge glitch when a source  
with nonzero output impedance is used to drive the input pins.  
This source must be capable of settling from the charge glitch in  
one-half period of the CLK. Unfortunately, the MOS switches  
used in any CMOS-switched capacitor circuit (including those  
in the AD9260) include nonlinear parasitic junction capaci-  
tances connected to their terminals. Figure 55 also illustrates  
the parasitic capacitances, Cpa1, Cpb1, Cpa2 and Cpb2, associ-  
ated with the input switches.  
In this application, the AD8138 is configured for unity gain and  
its common-mode output level is set to 2.5 V (i.e., VREF of the  
AD9260) to maximize its output headroom while operating from a  
single supply. Note, single-supply operation has the benefit of  
not requiring an input protection network for the AD9260 in  
dc-coupled applications. A simple R-C network at the output is  
used to filter out high-frequency noise from the AD8138. Recall,  
the AD9260s small signal bandwidth is 75 MHz, hence any  
noise falling within the baseband bandwidth of the AD9260  
defined by its sample and decimation rate, as well as images”  
of its baseband response occurring at multiples of the sample  
rate, will degrade its overall noise performance.  
Parasitic capacitor Cpa1 and Cpa2 are always connected to Pins  
VINA and VINB and therefore do not contribute to the glitch  
energy. Parasitic capacitors Cpb1 and Cpb2, on the other hand,  
cause a charge glitch that adds to that of input capacitors CS1

The second driver circuit, shown in Figure 58, can provide slightly  
enhanced noise performance relative to the AD8138, assuming  
low-noise, high-speed op amps are used. This differential op amp  
driver circuit is configured to convert and level-shift a 2 V p-p  
single-ended, ground-referenced signal to a 4 V p-p differential  
signal centered at the common-mode level of the AD9260. The  
circuit is based on two op amps that are configured as matched  
unity gain difference amplifiers. The single-ended input signal is  
applied to opposing inputs of the difference amplifiers, thus  
providing differential outputs. The common-mode offset voltage  
is applied to the noninverting resistor leg of each difference ampli-  
fier providing the required offset voltage. This offset voltage is  
derived from the common-mode level (CML) pin of the AD9260  
via a low output impedance buffer amplifier capable of driving a  
1 µF capacitive load. The common-mode offset can be varied  
over a 1.8 V to 2.5 V span without any serious degradation in  
distortion performance as shown in Figure 44, thus providing  
some flexibility in improving output compression distortion from  
some 5 op amps with limited positive voltage swing.

Level-Shifting  
beyond the input signals passband by adding a shunt capacitor,  
CF, across each op amps feedback resistor. This will essentially  
establish a low-pass filter which reduces the noise gain to one  
beyond the filters f3 dB while simultaneously bandlimiting the  
input signal to f3 dB. Note, the pole established by this filter can  
also be used as the real pole of an antialiasing filter. Since the  
noise contribution of two op amps from the same product family  
are typically equal but uncorrelated, the total output-referred  
noise of each op amp will add root-sum square leading to a  
further 3 dB degradation in the circuits noise performance.  
Further out-of-band noise reduction can be realized with the  
addition of single-ended and differential capacitors, CS and CD.  
The distortion and noise performance of the two op amps  
within the signal path are critical in achieving the AD9260s  
optimum performance. Low noise op amps capable of providing  
greater than 85 dB THD at 1 MHz while swinging over a 1 V to  
3 V range are a rare commodity, yet should only be considered.  
The AD9632 op amp was found to provide superb distortion  
performance in this circuit due to its ability to maintain excel-  
lent distortion performance over a wide bandwidth while swing-  
ing over a 1 V to 3 V range. Since the AD9632 is gain-of-two or  
greater stable, the use of the noise reduction shunt capacitors  
discussed above was prohibited thus degrading its noise perfor-  
mance slightly (1 dB2 dB) when compared to the OPA642.  
Note, the majority of the AD9260 test and characterization data  
presented in this data sheet was taken using the AD9632 op  
amp in this dc coupled driver circuit. This driver circuit is also  
provided on the AD9260 evaluation board since the AD8138  
was unreleased at that time.  
To protect the AD9260 from an undervoltage fault condition  
from op amps specified for 5 V operation, two 50 series  
resistors and a diode to AGND are inserted between each op  
amp output and the AD9260 inputs. The AD9260 will inherently  
be protected against any overvoltage condition if the op amps  
share the same positive power supply (i.e., AVDD) as the AD9260.  
Note, the gain accuracy and common-mode rejection of each dif-  
ference amplifier in this driver circuit can be enhanced by using  
a matched thin-film resistor network (i.e., Ohmtek ORNA5000F)  
for the op amps. Resistor values should be 500 or less to main-  
tain the lowest possible noise.  
The noise performance of each unity gain differential driver  
circuit is limited by its inherent noise gain of two. For unity gain  
op amps ONLY, the noise gain can be reduced from two to one

The outputs of each op amp are ac coupled via a small series  
resistor and capacitor (i.e., 50 and 0.1 µF) to the respective  
inputs of the AD9260. Similar to the dc coupled driver, further  
out-of-band noise reduction can be realized with the addition of  
100 pF single-ended and differential capacitors, CS and CD.  
The lower-cutoff frequency of this ac coupled circuit is deter-  
mined by RC and CC in which RC is tied to the common-mode  
level pin, CML, of the AD9260 for proper biasing of the inputs.  
Although the OPA642 was found to provide the lowest overall  
noise and distortion performance (i.e., 88.8 dB and 96 dB  
THD @ 100 kHz), the AD8055 (or dual AD8056) suffered  
only a 0.5 dB to 1.5 dB degradation in overall performance. It  
is worth noting that given the high-level of performance attainable  
by the AD9260, special consideration must be given to both the  
quality of the test equipment and test setup in its evaluation.

The CML pin is an internal analog bias point used internally by  
the AD9260. This pin must be decoupled to analog ground  
with at least a 0.1 µF capacitor as shown in Figure 59. The dc  
level of CML is approximately AVDD/2.5. This voltage should  
be buffered if it is to be used for any external biasing.

AVDD/2.5.

controls the position of the switch within the feedback path of  
A1. If the SENSE pin is tied to REFCOM, the switch is con-  
nected to the internal resistor network, thus providing a VREF  
of 2.5 V. If the SENSE pin is tied to the VREF pin via a short  
or resistor, the switch is connected to the SENSE pin. A short  
will provide a VREF of 1.0 V while an external resistor network  
will provide an alternative VREF SPAN between 1.0 V and  
2.5 V. The external resistor network may, for example, be  
implemented as a resistor divider circuit. This divider circuit  
could consist of a resistor (R1) connected between VREF and  
SENSE and another resistor (R2) connected between SENSE  
and REFCOM. The other comparator controls internal cir-  
cuitry that will disable the reference amplifier if the SENSE pin  
is tied to AVDD. Disabling the reference amplifier allows the  
VREF pin to be driven by an external voltage reference.

REFERENCE OPERATION  
The AD9260 contains an onboard bandgap reference and inter-  
nal reference buffer amplifier. The onboard reference provides a  
pin-strappable option to generate either a 1 V or 2.5 V output.  
With the addition of two external resistors, the user can generate  
reference voltages other than 1 V and 2.5 V. Another alterna-  
tive is to use an external reference for designs requiring en-  
hanced accuracy and/or drift performance. See Table IV for a  
summary of the pin-strapping options for the AD9260 reference  
configurations. Note, the optimum noise and distortion can only be  
achieved with a 2.5 V reference.  
The reference buffer circuit, level shifts the reference to an  
appropriate common-mode voltage for use by the internal cir-  
cuitry. The on-chip buffer provides the low impedance neces-  
sary for driving the internal switched capacitor circuits and  
eliminates the need for an external buffer op amp.  
Figure 60 shows a simplified model of the internal voltage refer-  
ence of the AD9260. A pin-strappable reference amplifier  
buffers a 1 V fixed reference. The output from the reference  
amplifier, A1, appears on the VREF pin and MUST be de-  
coupled with 0.1 µF and 10 µF capacitor to REFCOM. The  
voltage on the VREF pin determines the full-scale input span of  
the A/D. This input span equals:  
The actual reference voltages used by the internal circuitry of  
the AD9260 appear on the CAPT and CAPB pins. If VREF is  
configured for 2.5 V, thus providing a 4 V full-scale input span,  
the voltages appear at CAPT and CAPB are 3.0 V and 1.0 V  
respectively. For proper operation when using the internal or an  
external reference, it is necessary to add a capacitor network to  
decouple the CAPT and CAPB pins. Figure 61 shows the rec-  
ommended decoupling network. This capacitive network per-  
forms the following three functions: (1) along with the reference  
amplifier, A2, it provides a low source impedance over a large  
frequency range to drive the A/D internal circuitry, (2) it pro-  
vides the necessary compensation for A2, and (3) it bandlimits  
the noise contribution from the reference. The turn-on time of  
the reference voltage appearing between CAPT and CAPB is  
approximately 15 ms and should be evaluated in any power-  
down mode of operation.  
Full-Scale Input Span = 1.6 × VREF  
The voltage appearing at the VREF pin, as well as the state of  
the internal reference amplifier, A1, are determined by the volt-  
age appearing at the SENSE pin. The logic circuitry contains  
two comparators that monitor the voltage at the SENSE pin.

DIGITAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS  
Digital Outputs  
The AD9260 output data is presented in a twos complement  
format. Table V indicates the output data formats for various  
input ranges and decimation modes. A straight binary output  
data format can be created by inverting the MSB.  
DAV PIN  
The DAV pin indicates when the output data of the AD9260 is  
valid. Digital output data is updated on the rising edge of DAV.  
The data hold time (tH) is dependent on the external loading of  
DAV and the digital data output pins (BIT1BIT16) as well as  
the particular decimation mode. The internal DAV driver is  
sized to be larger than the drivers pertaining to the digital data  
outputs to ensure that rising edge of DAV occurs before the  
data transitions under similar loading conditions (i.e., fanout)  
regardless of mode. Note that minimum data hold (tH) of 3.5 ns  
is specified in the Figure 4 timing diagram from the 50% point  
of DAVs rising edge to the 50% of data transition using a ca-  
pacitive load of 20 pF for DAV and BIT1BIT16. Applications  
interfacing to TTL logic and/or having larger capacitive loading  
for DAV than BIT1BIT16 should consider latching data on  
the falling edge of DAV since the falling edge of DAV occurs  
well after the data has transitioned in the case of the 2×, 4× and  
8× modes. The duty cycle of DAV is approximately 50% and it  
remains active independent of CS and READ.

RESET PIN  
2Decimation Mode  
The RESET pin is an asynchronous digital input that is active  
low. Upon asserting RESET low, the clocks in the digital deci-  
mation filters are disabled, the DAV pin goes low and the data  
on the digital output data pins (Bit 1Bit 16) is invalid. In addi-  
tion, the analog modulator in the AD9260 and internal clock  
dividers used in the decimation filters are reset and will remain  
reset as long as RESET is maintained low. In the 2×, 4×, or 8×  
mode, the RESET must remain low for at least a clock period to  
ensure all the clock dividers and analog modulator are reset.  
Upon bringing RESET high, the internal clock dividers will  
begin to count again on the next falling edge of CLK and DAV  
will go high approximately 15 ns after this falling edge, resuming  
normal operation. Refer to Figure 4b for a timing diagram.

The slight different full-scale input voltage conditions and  
their corresponding digital output code for the 4× and 2× deci-  
mation modes can be attributed to the different digital scaling  
factors applied to each of the AD9260s FIR decimation stages  
for filter optimization purposes. Thus, a + full-scale reading of  
0111 1111 1111 1111 and full-scale reading of 1000 0000  
0000 0000 is unachievable in the 2× and 4× decimation mode.  
As a result, a digital overrange condition can never exist in the  
2× and 4× decimation mode and thus OTR being set high indi-  
cates an overrange condition in the analog modulator.  
The state of the internal decimation filters in the AD9260  
remains unchanged when RESET is asserted low. Conse-  
quently, when RESET is pulsed low, this resets the analog  
modulator but does not clear all the data in the digital filters.  
The data in the filters is corrupted by the effect of resetting the  
analog modulator (this causes an abrupt change at the input of  
the digital filter and this change is unrelated to the signal at the  
input of the A/D converter). Similarly, in multiplexed applica-  
tions in which the input of the A/D converters sees an abrupt  
change, the data in the analog modulator and digital filter will  
be corrupted.  
The output data format in 1× decimation differs from that in 2×,  
4× and 8× decimation modes. In 1× decimation mode the out-  
put data remains in a twos complement format, but the digital  
numbers are scaled by a factor of 7/128. This factor of 7/128 is  
the product of an internal scale factor of 7/8 in the analog modula-  
tor and a 1/16 scale factor caused by LSB justification of the  
12-bit modulator data.  
CS AND READ PINS  
For this reason, following a pulse on the RESET pin, or change  
in channels (i.e., multiplexed applications only), the decimation  
filters must be flushed of their data. These filters have a memory  
length, hence delay, equal to the number of filter taps times  
the clock rate of the converter. This memory length may be  
The CS and READ pins control the state of the output data  
pins (BIT1BIT16) on the AD9260. The CS pin is active low  
and the READ pin is active high. When CS and READ are  
both active the ADC data is driven on the output data pins,  
otherwise the output data pins are in a high-impedance (Hi-Z)

AD9260  
interpreted in terms of a number of samples stored in the  
decimation filter. For example, if the part is in 8× decimation  
mode, the delay is 321/fCLOCK. This corresponds to 321 samples  
stored in the decimation filter. These 321 samples must be  
flushed from the AD9260 after RESET is pulsed high prior to  
reusing the data from the AD9260. That is, the AD9260 should  
be allowed to clock for 321 samples as the corrupted data is  
flushed from the filters. If the part is in 4× or 2× decimation  
mode, then the relatively smaller group delays of the 4× and 2×  
decimation filters result fewer samples that must be flushed  
from the filters (108 samples and 23 samples respectively).  
The second out-of-range detector is placed at the output of the  
stage three decimation filter and detects whether the low pass  
filtered data has exceeded full scale. When this occurs, the filter  
output data is hard limited to full scale. The OTR signal is a  
logical OR function of the signals from these two internal out-  
of-range detectors. If either of these detectors produces an out-  
of-range signal, the OTR pin goes high and the data may be  
seriously corrupted.  
If the AD9260 is used in a system that incorporates automatic  
gain control (AGC), the OTR signal may be used to indicate  
that the signal amplitude should be reduced. This may be par-  
ticularly effective for use in maximizing the signal dynamic  
range if the signal includes high-frequency components that  
occasionally exceed full scale by a small amount. If, on the other  
hand, the signal includes large amplitude low frequency compo-  
nents that cause the digital filters to overrange, this may cause  
the low pass digital filter to overrange. In this case the data may  
become seriously corrupted and the digital filters may need to  
be flushed. See the RESET pin function description above for  
an explanation of the requirements for flushing the digital filters.  
In 2×, 4× or 8× mode, RESET may be used to synchronize  
multiple AD9260s clocked with the same clock. The decimation  
filters in the AD9260 are clocked with an internal clock divider.  
The state of this clock divider determines when the output data  
becomes available (relative to CLK). In order to synchronize  
multiple AD9260s clocked with the same clock, it is necessary  
that the clock dividers in each of the individual AD9260s are  
all reset to the same state. When RESET is asserted low, these  
clock dividers are cleared. On the next falling edge of CLK follow-  
ing the rising edge of RESET, the clock dividers begin counting  
and the clock is applied to the digital decimation filters.  
OTR should be sampled with the falling edge of CLK. This  
signal is invalid while CLK is HIGH.  
OTR PIN  
MODE OPERATION  
The OTR pin is a synchronous output that is updated each  
CLK period. It indicates that an overrange condition has oc-  
curred within the AD9260. Ideally, OTR should be latched on  
the falling edge of CLK to ensure proper setup-and-hold time.  
However, since an overrange condition typically extends well  
beyond one clock cycle (i.e., does not toggle at the CLK rate).  
OTR typically remains high for more than a clock cycle, allow-  
ing it to be successfully detected on the rising edge of CLK or  
monitored asynchronously.  
The Mode Select Pin (MODE) allows the user to select one of  
four available digital filter modes using a single pin. Each mode  
configures the internal decimation filter to decimate at: 1×, 2×,  
4× or 8×. Refer to Table VII for mode pin ranges.  
The mode selection is performed by using a set of internal com-  
parators, as illustrated in Figure 62, so that each mode corre-  
sponds to a voltage range on the input of the MODE pin. The  
output of the comparators are fed into encoding logic where, on  
the falling edge of the clock, the encoded data is latched.  
An overrange condition must be carefully handled because of  
the group delays in the low-pass digital decimation filters in the  
output stages of the AD9260. When the input signal exceeds  
the full-scale range of the converter, this can have a variety of  
effects upon the operation of the AD9260, depending on the  
duration and amplitude of this overrange condition. A short  
duration overrange condition (<< filter group delay) may cause  
the analog modulator to briefly overrange without causing the  
data in the low pass digital filters to exceed full scale. The ana-  
log modulator is actually capable of processing signals slightly  
(3%) beyond the full-scale range of the AD9260 without inter-  
nally clipping. A long duration overrange condition will cause  
the digital filter data to exceed full scale. For this reason, the  
OTR signal is generated using two separate internal out-of-  
range detectors.

BIAS PIN OPERATION  
The Bias Select Pin (BIAS) gives the user, who is able to oper-  
ate the AD9260 at a slower clock rate, the added flexibility of  
running the device in a lower, power consumption mode when it  
is clocked at less than 20 MHz.  
The first of these out-of-range detectors is placed at the output  
of the analog modulator and indicates whether the modulator  
output signal has extended 3% beyond the full-scale range of  
the converter. If the modulator output signal exceeds 3% be-  
yond full scale, the digital data is hard-limited (i.e., clipped) to a  
number that is 3% larger than full scale. Due to the delay of the  
switched capacitor analog modulator, the OTR signal is delayed  
3 1/2 clock cycles relative to the clock edge in which the over-  
ranged analog input signal was sampled.  
This is accomplished by scaling the bias current of the AD9260  
as illustrated in Figure 63. The bias amplifier drives a source  
follower and forces 1 V across REXT, which sets the bias current.  
This effectively adjusts the bias current in the modulator ampli-  
fiers and FLASH preamplifiers. When a large value of REXT is  
used, a smaller bias current is available to the internal amplifier  
circuitry. As a result these amplifiers need more time to settle,  
thus dictating the use of a slower clock as the power is reduced.  
Refer to the characterization curves shown in Figures 4148  
revealing the performance tradeoffs.

POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS  
25  
The power dissipation of the AD9260 is dependent on its  
application-specific configuration and operating conditions.  
The analog power dissipation as shown in Figure 64 is primarily  
a function of its power bias setting and sample rate. It remains  
insensitive to the particular input waveform being digitized or  
digital filter MODE setting. The digital power dissipation is  
primarily a function of the digital supply setting (i.e., +3 V to  
+5 V), the sample rate and, to a lesser extent, the MODE setting  
and input waveform. Figures 65a and 65b show the total current  
dissipation of the combineddigital (DVDD) and digital driver  
supply (DRVDD) for +3 V and +5 V supplies. Note, DVDD  
and DRVDD are typically derived from the same supply bus  
since no degradation in performance results. A 1 MHz full-  
scale sine wave was used to ensure maximum digital activity in  
the digital filters and the digital drivers had a fanout of one.  
Note also that a twofold decrease in digital supply current re-  
sults when the digital supply is reduced form +5 V to +3 V.

AD9260  
Digital Output Driver Considerations (DRVDD)  
These characteristics result in both a reduction of electro-  
magnetic interference (EMI) and an overall improvement in  
performance.  
The AD9260 output drivers can be configured to interface with  
+5 V or 3.3 V logic families by setting DRVDD to +5 V or 3.3 V  
respectively. The AD9260 output drivers in each mode are  
appropriately sized to provide sufficient output current to drive  
a wide variety of logic families. However, large drive currents  
tend to cause glitches on the supplies and may affect SINAD  
performance. Applications requiring the AD9260 to drive large  
capacitive loads or large fanout may require additional decou-  
pling capacitors on DRVDD. The addition of external buffers or  
latches helps reduce output loading while providing effective  
isolation from the databus.  
It is important to design a layout that prevents noise from coupling  
onto the input signal. Digital signals should not be run in parallel  
with input signal traces and should be routed away from the  
input circuitry. While the AD9260 features separate analog and  
digital ground pins, it should be treated as an analog component.  
The AVSS, DVSS and DRVSS pins must be joined together directly  
under the AD9260. A solid ground plane under the A/D is ac-  
ceptable if the power and ground return currents are man-  
aged carefully. Alternatively, the ground plane under the A/D  
may contain serrations to steer currents in predictable directions  
where cross-coupling between analog and digital would other-  
wise be unavoidable. The AD9260/EB ground layout, shown in  
Figure 76, depicts the serrated type of arrangement. The analog  
and digital grounds are connected by a jumper below the A/D.  
Clock Input and Considerations  
The AD9260 internal timing uses the two edges of the clock  
input to generate a variety of internal timing signals. The clock  
input must meet or exceed the minimum specified pulse width  
high and low (tCH and tCL) specifications for the given A/D as  
defined in the Switching Specifications at the beginning of the  
data sheet to meet the rated performance specifications. For  
example, the clock input to the AD9260 operating at 20 MSPS  
may have a duty cycle between 45% to 55% to meet this timing  
requirement since the minimum specified tCH and tCL is 22.5 ns.  
For clock rates below 20 MSPS, the duty cycle may deviate from  
this range to the extent that both tCH and tCL are satisfied.  
Analog and Digital Supply Decoupling  
The AD9260 features separate analog, digital, and driver supply  
and ground pins, helping to minimize digital corruption of sen-  
sitive analog signals.  
Figure 66 shows the power supply rejection ratio vs. frequency  
for a 200 mV p-p ripple applied to AVDD, DVDD, and DAVDD.  
All high-speed high-resolution A/Ds are sensitive to the quality of  
the clock input. The degradation in SNR at a given full-scale  
input frequency (fIN) due to only aperture jitter (tA) can be calcu-  
lated with the following equation:  
90  
85  
DVDD & DRVDD  
80  
SNR = 20 log10 [1/(2 π fIN tA)]  
75  
70  
65  
60  
In the equation, the rms aperture jitter, tA, represents the root-  
sum square of all the jitter sources which include the clock input,  
analog input signal, and A/D aperture jitter specification. For  
example, if a 500 kHz full-scale sine wave is sampled by an A/D  
with a total rms jitter of 15 ps, the SNR performance of the A/D  
will be limited to 86.5 dB.  
55  
AVDD  
50  
45  
40  
The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases  
where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the  
AD9260. In fact, the CLK input buffer is internally powered  
from the AD9260s analog supply, AVDD. Thus the CLK logic  
high and low input voltage levels are +3.5 V and +1.0 V, respec-  
tively. Supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the  
A/D output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal  
with digital noise. Low jitter crystal controlled oscillators make  
the best clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type  
of source (by gating, dividing, or other method), it should be  
retimed by the original clock at the last step.

In general, AVDD, the analog supply, should be decoupled to  
AVSS, the analog common, as close to the chip as physically  
possible. Figure 67 shows the recommended decoupling for the  
analog supplies; 0.1 µF ceramic chip capacitors should provide  
adequately low impedance over a wide frequency range. Note  
that the AVDD and AVSS pins are co-located on the AD9260

The digital activity on the AD9260 chip falls into two general  
categories: digital logic, and output drivers. The internal digital  
logic draws surges of current, mainly during the clock transi-  
tions. The output drivers draw large current impulses while the  
output bits are changing. The size and duration of these cur-  
rents are a function of the load on the output bits: large capaci-  
tive loads are to be avoided. Note that the digital logic of the  
AD9260 is referenced DVDD while the output drivers are refer-  
enced to DRVDD. Also note that the SNR performance of the  
AD9260 remains independent of the digital or driver supply  
setting.

AD9260 EVALUATION BOARD  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD9260 Evaluation Board is designed to provide an easy  
and flexible method of exercising the AD9260 and demonstrate  
its performance to data sheet specifications. The evaluation  
board is fabricated in four layers: the component layer; the  
ground layer; the power layer and the solder layer. The board is  
clearly labeled to provide easy identification of components.  
Ample space is provided near the analog and clock inputs to  
provide additional or alternate signal conditioning.  
A complete decoupling scheme will also include large tantalum  
or electrolytic capacitors on the PCB to reduce low-frequency  
ripple to negligible levels. Refer to the AD9260/EB schematic  
and layouts in Figures 7377 for more information regarding the  
placement of decoupling capacitors.  
An alternative layout and decoupling scheme is shown in Figure  
69. This layout and decoupling scheme is well suited for appli-  
cations in which multiple AD9260s are located on the same PC  
board and/or the AD9260 is part of a multicard mixed signal  
system in which grounds are tied back at the system supplies  
(i.e., star ground configuration). In this case, the AD9260 is  
treated as an analog component in which its analog (i.e.,  
AVDD) and digital (DVDD and DRVDD) supplies are derived  
from the systems +5 V analog supply and all of the AD9260s  
ground pins are tied directly to the analog ground plane which  
resides directly underneath the IC.  
FEATURES AND USER CONTROL  
Jumper Controlled Mode/OSR Selection: The choice of  
Mode/OSR can easily be varied by jumping either JP1,  
JP2, JP3 or JP4 as illustrated in Figure 71 within the  
Mode/OSR Control Block. To obtain the desired mode  
refer to Table VIII.  
Referring to Figure 69, each supply pin is directly decoupled to  
their respective ground pin or analog ground plane via a ceramic  
0.1 µF chip capacitor. Surface mount ferrite beads are used to  
isolate the analog (AVDD), digital (DVDD), and driver supplies  
(DRVDD) of the AD9260 from the +5 V power buss. Properly  
selected ferrite beads can provide more than 40 dB of isolation  
from high-frequency switching transients originating from AD9260  
supply pins. Further noise immunity from noise is provided by  
the inherent power-supply rejection of the AD9260 as shown in  
Figure 64. If digital operation at 3 V is desirable for power sav-  
ings and or to provide for a 3 V digital logic interface, a 5 V to  
3 V linear regulator can be used to drive DVDD and/or DRVDD.  
A more complete discussion on this layout and decoupling scheme  
can be found in Chapter 7, pages 7-27 through 7-55 of the High

the BIAS pin of the AD9260. Table IX defines the recom-  
mended resistance for a given clock speed to obtain the de-  
sired power consumption.

designed to allow the user the flexibility of selecting how to  
connect the external clock source. It is also equipped with a  
playpen area for experimenting with optional clock drivers or  
crystals.

Data Interfacing Controls: The data interfacing controls  
(RESETB, CSB, READ, DAV) are all accessible via SMA  
connectors (J2J5) as illustrated in Figure 71 within the data  
interfacing control block. The RESETB, CSB and READ  
connections are each supplied with two sets or resistor pin  
cups to allow the user to pull-up or pull-down each signal to  
a fixed state. R5, R6 and R30 will terminate to ground, while  
R7, R28 and R29 terminate to DRVDD. The DAV and  
OTR signals are also directly connected to the data output  
connector P1. All interfacing controls are buffered through  
the CMOS line driver 74HC541.  
Selecting DC or AC Coupled External Clock:  
DC Coupled: To directly drive the clock externally via the  
CLKIN connector, connect JP11 and disconnect JP12. Note:  
50 terminated by R27.  
AC Coupled: To ac couple the external clock and level shift it  
to midsupply, connect JP12 and disconnect JP11. Note: 50 Ω  
terminated by R27.  
Flexible Input Signal Configuration Circuitry: The  
AD9260 Evaluation Boards Input Signal Configuration Block  
is illustrated in Figure 72. It is comprised of an input signal  
summing amplifier (U7), a variable input signal common-  
mode generator (U10) and a pair of amplifiers (U8 and U9)  
that configure the input into a differential signal and drive it,  
through a pair of isolation resistors, into the input pins of  
AD9260. The user can either input a signal or dual signal  
into the evaluation board via the two SMA connectors (J6 and  
J7) labeled IN-1 or IN-2.  
Buffered Output Data: The twos complement output data  
is buffered through two CMOS noninverting bus transceivers  
(U2 and U3) and made available at pin connector P1 as  
illustrated in Figure 71 within the data output block.  
Jumper Controlled Reference Source: The choice of  
reference for the AD9260 can easily be varied between 1.0 V,  
2.5 V or external, by using Jumpers JP5, JP6, JP7 and JP9 as  
illustrated in Figure 71 within the reference configuration  
block. To obtain the desired reference see Table X.  
The user should refer to the Driving the Input section of the data  
sheet for a detailed explanation of how the inputs are to be driven  
and what amplifier requirements are recommended.

Selecting Single or Dual Signal Input: The input ampli-

inverting summer or a single tone inverting buffer. This  
flexibility will allow for slightly better noise performance in  
the single tone mode due to the inherent noise gain differ-  
ence in the two amplifier configurations. An optional feed-  
back capacitor (C9) was added to allow the user additional  
out-of band filtering of the input signal if needed.

For two-tone input signals: The user would leave jumpers (JP8)  
connected and use IN-1 and IN-2 (J7 and J6) as the connec-  
tors for the input signals.  
3. Bandpass filtering of test signal generators is absolutely  
necessary for SNR, THD and IMD tests. Note, a low noise  
signal generator along with a high Q bandpass filter is often  
necessary to achieve the attainable noise performance of the  
AD9260.  
For signal tone input signal: The user would remove jumper  
(JP8) and use only IN-1 as the input signal connector.  
4. Test signal generators must have exceptional noise perfor-  
mance to achieve accurate SNR measurements. Good gen-  
erators, together with fifth-order elliptical bandpass filters,  
are recommended for SNR tests. Narrow bandwidth crystal  
filters can also be used to filter generator broadband noise,  
but they should be carefully tested for operation at high-  
signal levels.  
Selectable Input Signal Common-Mode Level Source:  
The input signals common-mode level (CML) can be set by  
U10.  
To use the Input CML generated by U10: Disconnect jumper  
JP13 and Connect resistors RX3 and RX4. The CML gener-  
ated by U10 is variable and adjustable using the 1 kΩ  
trimpot R35.  
5. The analog inputs of the AD9260 should be terminated  
directly at the input pin sockets with the correct filter termi-  
nating impedance (50 or 75 ), or it should be driven by  
a low output impedance buffer. Short leads are necessary to  
prevent digital noise pickup.  
SHIPMENT CONFIGURATION AND QUICK SETUP  
The AD9260 Evaluation Board is configured as follows when  
shipped:  
1. 2.5 V external reference/4.0 V differential full-scale input:  
JP5, JP9 and JP10 connected, JP6 and JP7 disconnected.  
6. A low noise (jitter) clock signal generator is required for  
good ADC dynamic performance. A poor generator can  
seriously impair good SNR performance particularly at  
higher input frequencies. A high-frequency generator, based  
on a clock source (e.g., crystal source), is recommended.  
Frequency-synthesized clock generators should generally be  
avoided because they typically provide poor jitter perfor-  
mance. See Note 8 if a crystal-based clock generator is used  
during FFT testing.  
2. 8× Mode/OSR: JP1 connected, JP2, JP3, and JP4  
disconnected.  
3. Full Speed Power Bias: R2 = 2 kand connected.  
4. CSB pulled low: R6 = 49.9 and connected, R29  
disconnected.  
5. RESETB pulled high: R7 = 10 kand connected, R30 dis-  
connected.  
A low jitter clock may be generated by using a high-frequency  
clock source and dividing this frequency down with a low noise  
clock divider to obtain the AD9260 input CLK. Maintaining a  
large amplitude clock signal may also be very beneficial in mini-  
mizing the effects of noise in the digital gates of the clock gen-  
eration circuitry.  
6. READ pulled high: R28 = 10 kand connected, R5  
disconnected.  
7. Single Tone Input: JP8 removed, input applied via IN-1 (J7).  
8. Input signal common-mode level set by Trimpot R35 to  
2.0 V: Jumper JP12 is disconnected and resistors Rx4 and  
Rx3 are connected.  
Finally, special care should be taken to avoid coupling noise  
into any digital gates preceding the AD9260 CLK pin. Short  
leads are necessary to preserve fast rise times and careful decou-  
pling should be used with these digital gates and the supplies  
for these digital gates should be connected to the same supplies  
as that of the internal AD9260 clock circuitry (Pins 44 and 38).  
9. AC Coupled Clock: JP12 connected and JP11 disconnected.  
Note: 50 terminated by R27.  
QUICK SETUP  
1. Connect the required power supplies to the Evaluation  
Board as illustrated in Figure 22:  
7. Two-tone testing will require isolation between test signal  
generators to prevent IMD generation in the test generator  
output circuits.  
5 VA supplies to P5Analog Power  
+5 VA supply to P4Analog Power  
+5 VD supply to P3Digital Power

8. A very low side-lobe window must be used for FFT calcula-  
tions if generators cannot be phase-locked and set to exact  
frequencies.  
2. Connect a Clock Source to CLKIN (J1): Note: 50 termi-  
nated by R1.  
9. A well designed, clean PC board layout will assure proper  
operation and clean spectral response. Proper grounding  
and bypassing, short lead lengths, separation of analog and  
digital signals, and the use of ground planes are particularly  
important for high-frequency circuits. Multilayer PC boards  
are recommended for best performance, but if carefully  
designed, a two-sided PC board with large heavy (20 oz.  
foil) ground planes can give excellent results.  
3. Connect an Input Signal Source to the IN-1 (J7).  
4. Turn On Power!  
5. The AD9260 Evaluation Board is now ready for use.  
APPLICATION TIPS  
1. The ADC analog input should not be overdriven. Using a  
signal amplitude slightly lower than FSR will allow a  
small amount of headroomso that noise or DC offset  
voltage will not overrange the ADC and hard limiton  
signal peaks.  
10. Prototype plug-boardsor wire-wrap boards will not be  
satisfactory.  
2. Two-tone tests can produce signal envelopes that exceed  
FSR. Set each test signal to slightly less than 6 dB to pre-  
vent hard limitingon peaks.
