Octal LNA/VGA/AAF/ADC
and CW I/Q Demodulator
AD9279
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
8 channels of LNA, VGA, AAF, ADC, and I/Q demodulator
Low power: 141 mW per channel, TGC mode, 40 MSPS;
60 mW per channel, CW mode
10 mm × 10 mm, 144-ball CSP-BGA
TGC channel input-referred noise: 0.8 nV/√Hz, max gain
Flexible power-down modes
The AD9279 is designed for low cost, low power, small size,
and ease of use for medical ultrasound and automotive radar. It
contains eight channels of a variable gain amplifier (VGA) with
a low noise preamplifier (LNA), an antialiasing filter (AAF), an
analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and an I/Q demodulator
with programmable phase rotation.
Fast recovery from low power standby mode: <2 μs
Overload recovery: <10 ns
Low noise preamplifier (LNA)
Input-referred noise: 0.75 nV/√Hz, gain = 21.3 dB
Programmable gain: 15.6 dB/17.9 dB/21.3 dB
0.1 dB compression: 1000 mV p-p/
Each channel features a variable gain range of 45 dB, a fully
differential signal path, an active input preamplifier termination,
and a maximum gain of up to 52 dB. The channel is optimized
for high dynamic performance and low power in applications
where a small package size is critical.
The LNA has a single-ended-to-differential gain that is selectable
through the SPI. Assuming a 15 MHz noise bandwidth (NBW)
and a 21.3 dB LNA gain, the LNA input SNR is roughly 94 dB.
In CW Doppler mode, each LNA output drives an I/Q demod-
ulator that has independently programmable phase rotation
with 16 phase settings.
750 mV p-p/450 mV p-p
Dual-mode active input impedance matching
Bandwidth (BW): >100 MHz
Variable gain amplifier (VGA)
Attenuator range: −45 dB to 0 dB
Postamp gain (PGA): 21 dB/24 dB/27 dB/30 dB
Linear-in-dB gain control
Antialiasing filter (AAF)
Programmable second-order LPF from 8 MHz to 18 MHz
Programmable HPF
Analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
SNR: 70 dB, 12 bits up to 80 MSPS
Serial LVDS (ANSI-644, low power/reduced signal)
CW mode I/Q demodulator
Individual programmable phase rotation
Output dynamic range per channel: >160 dBc/√Hz
Output-referred SNR: 155 dBc/√Hz, 1 kHz offset, −3 dBFS
Power-down of individual channels is supported to increase
battery life for portable applications. Standby mode allows quick
power-up for power cycling. In CW Doppler operation, the
VGA, AAF, and ADC are powered down. The ADC contains
several features designed to maximize flexibility and minimize
system cost, such as a programmable clock, data alignment, and
programmable digital test pattern generation. The digital test
patterns include built-in fixed patterns, built-in pseudo random
patterns, and custom user-defined test patterns entered via the
serial port interface.

Figure 40. Simplified Ultrasound System Block Diagram
The primary application for the AD9279 is medical ultrasound.
Figure 40 shows a simplified block diagram of an ultrasound
system. A critical function of an ultrasound system is the time
gain control (TGC) compensation for physiological signal
attenuation. Because the attenuation of ultrasound signals is
exponential with respect to distance (time), a linear-in-dB VGA
is the optimal solution.
The ADC resolution of 12 bits with up to 80 MSPS sampling
satisfies the requirements of both general-purpose and high
end systems. The power dissipation of the ADC scales with
programmable speed modes for optimum power performance
depending on system architecture.
Power conservation, high performance, and low cost are three
of the most important factors in low end and portable ultra-
sound machines, and the AD9279 is designed to meet these
criteria.
Key requirements in an ultrasound signal chain are very low
noise, active input termination, fast overload recovery, low power,
and differential drive to an ADC. Because ultrasound machines
use beamforming techniques requiring large binary-weighted
numbers of channels (for example, 32 to 512), using the lowest
power at the lowest possible noise is of chief importance.
For additional information regarding ultrasound systems, see
“How Ultrasound System Considerations Influence Front-End
Component Choice,” Analog Dialogue, Volume 36, Number 3,
May–July 2002, and “The AD9271—A Revolutionary Solution
for Portable Ultrasound,” Analog Dialogue, Volume 41, Number 7,
July 2007.
Most modern ultrasound machines use digital beamforming.
In this technique, the signal is converted to digital format
immediately following the TGC amplifier, and then beam-
forming is accomplished digitally.

Figure 41. Simplified Block Diagram of a Single Channel
Each channel contains both a TGC signal path and a CW Doppler
signal path. Common to both signal paths, the LNA provides four
user-adjustable input impedance termination options for
matching different probe impedances. The CW Doppler path
includes an I/Q demodulator with programmable phase rotation
needed for analog beamforming. The TGC path includes a
differential X-AMP® VGA, an antialiasing filter, and an ADC.
Figure 41 shows a simplified block diagram with external
components.

ADC
Each LNA output is dc-coupled to a VGA input. The VGA
consists of an attenuator with a range of −45 dB to 0 dB followed
by an amplifier with 21 dB/24 dB/27 dB/30 dB of gain. The
X-AMP gain interpolation technique results in low gain error
and uniform bandwidth, and differential signal paths minimize
distortion.
TGC OPERATION
The TGC signal path is fully differential throughout to
maximize signal swing and reduce even-order distortion;
however, the LNAs are designed to be driven from a single-
ended signal source. Gain values are referenced from the single-
ended LNA input to the differential ADC input. A simple
exercise in understanding the maximum and minimum gain
requirements is shown in Figure 42.
The linear-in-dB gain (law conformance) range of the TGC path
is 45 dB. The slope of the gain control interface is 28 dB/V, and
the gain control range is −0.8 V to +0.8 V. Equation 3 is the
expression for the differential voltage, VGAIN, at the gain control
interface. Equation 4 is the expression for the VGA attenuation,
The maximum gain required is determined by
VGAATT as a function of VGAIN
.

The total channel gain can then be calculated as in Equation 5.

Therefore, 45 dB of gain range for a 12-bit, 40 MSPS ADC with
15 MHz of bandwidth should suffice in achieving the dynamic
range required for most of today’s ultrasound systems.

The system gain is distributed as listed in Table 7.

In its default condition, the LNA has a gain of 21.3 dB (12×), and
the VGA postamp gain is 24 dB. If the voltage on the GAIN+
pin is 0 V and the voltage on the GAIN− pin is 0.8 V (44.8 dB
attenuation), the total gain of the channel is 0.5 dB if the LNA
input is unmatched. The channel gain is −5.5 dB if the LNA is
matched to 50 Ω (RFB = 350 Ω). However, if the voltage on the
GAIN+ pin is 1.6 V and the voltage on the GAIN− pin is 0.8 V
(0 dB attenuation), the VGAATT is 0 dB. This results in a total
gain of 45.3 dB through the TGC path if the LNA input is
unmatched or in a total gain of 39.3 dB if the LNA input is
matched.

the GAIN+ and GAIN− pins. The LNA has three limitations, or
full-scale settings, that can be applied through the SPI. Similarly,
the VGA has four postamp gain settings that can be applied
through the SPI. The voltage applied to the GAIN pins
determines which amplifier (the LNA or VGA) saturates first.
The maximum signal input level prior to 0.1 dB compression on
the output of the LNA that can be applied as a function of
voltage on the GAIN pins for the selectable gain options of the
SPI is shown in Figure 43 to Figure 45.
For example, when the VGA is set for the minimum gain voltage,
the TGC path is dominated by VGA noise and achieves the
maximum output SNR. However, as the postamp gain options
are increased, the input-referred noise is reduced and the SNR
is degraded.
If the VGA is set for the maximum gain voltage, the TGC path
is dominated by LNA noise and achieves the lowest input-
referred noise but with degraded output SNR. The higher the
TGC (LNA + VGC) gain, the lower the output SNR. As the
postamp gain is increased, the input-referred noise is reduced.

At low gains, the VGA should limit the system noise performance

Low value feedback resistors and the current-driving capability
of the output stage allow the LNA to achieve a low input-
referred noise voltage of 0.75 nV/√Hz (at a gain of 21.3 dB).
On-chip resistor matching results in precise single-ended gains,
which are critical for accurate impedance control. The use of a
fully differential topology and negative feedback minimizes
distortion. Low second-order harmonic distortion is particularly
important in second harmonic ultrasound imaging applications.
Differential signaling enables smaller swings at each output,
further reducing third-order harmonic distortion.

Active Impedance Matching
The LNA consists of a single-ended voltage gain amplifier with
differential outputs and the negative output externally available.
For example, with a fixed gain of 8× (17.9 dB), an active input
termination is synthesized by connecting a feedback resistor
between the negative output pin, LO-x, and the positive input
pin, LI-x. This well-known technique is used for interfacing
multiple probe impedances to a single system. The input
resistance is shown in Equation 1.

Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)
Because the amplifier has a gain of 8× from its input to its
differential output, it is important to note that the gain, A/2,
is the gain from Pin LI-x to Pin LO-x and that it is 6 dB less
than the gain of the amplifier, or 12.1 dB (4×). The input
resistance is reduced by an internal bias resistor of 6 kΩ in
parallel with the source resistance connected to Pin LI-x, with
Pin LG-x ac grounded. Equation 2 can be used to calculate the
required RFB for a desired RIN, even for higher values of RIN.
Good system sensitivity relies on a proprietary ultralow noise
LNA at the beginning of the signal chain, which minimizes the
noise contribution in the following VGA. Active impedance
control optimizes noise performance for applications that
benefit from input impedance matching.
The LNA input, LI-x, is capacitively coupled to the source.
An on-chip bias generator establishes dc input bias voltages of
approximately 2.2 V and centers the output common-mode
levels at 1.5 V (AVDD2 divided by 2). A capacitor, CLG, of the
same value as the input coupling capacitor, CS, is connected
from the LG-x pin to ground.

RIN
=
||6 k Ω
For example, to set RIN to 200 Ω with a single-ended LNA gain of
12.1 dB (4×), the value of RFB from Equation 1 must be 1000 Ω. If
the simplified equation (Equation 2) is used to calculate RIN, the
value is 194 Ω, resulting in a gain error of less than 0.27 dB.
Some factors, such as the presence of a dynamic source resistance,
may influence the absolute gain accuracy more significantly. At
higher frequencies, the input capacitance of the LNA must be
considered. The user must determine the level of matching
accuracy and adjust RFB accordingly.
It is highly recommended that the LG-x pins form a Kelvin type
connection to the input or probe connection ground. Simply
connecting the LG-x pin to ground near the device can allow
differences in potential to be amplified through the LNA. This
generally shows up as a dc offset voltage that can vary from
channel to channel and part to part depending on the appli-
cation and the layout of the PCB.
The LNA supports a nominal differential output voltage of
4.4 V p-p with positive and negative excursions of 1.1 V from a
common-mode voltage of 1.5 V. The LNA differential gain sets the
maximum input signal before saturation. One of three gains is

LNA Noise
The bandwidth (BW) of the LNA is greater than 100 MHz.
Ultimately, the BW of the LNA limits the accuracy of the
synthesized RIN. For RIN = RS up to about 200 Ω, the best match
is between 100 kHz and 10 MHz, where the lower frequency
limit is determined by the size of the ac coupling capacitors, and
the upper limit is determined by the LNA BW. Furthermore, the
input capacitance and RS limit the BW at higher frequencies.
Figure 46 shows RIN vs. frequency for various values of RFB.

The short-circuit noise voltage (input-referred noise) is an
important limit on system performance. The short-circuit noise
voltage for the LNA is 0.75 nV/√Hz at a gain of 21.3 dB, including
the VGA noise at a VGA postamp gain of 27 dB. These measure-
ments, which were taken without a feedback resistor, provide
the basis for calculating the input noise and noise figure (NF)
performance of the configurations shown in Figure 47.

Note that, at the lowest value of RIN (50 Ω), RIN peaks at frequencies
greater than 10 MHz. This is due to the BW roll-off of the LNA.
Figure 47. Input Configurations
However, as can be seen for larger RIN values, parasitic capaci-
tance starts rolling off the signal BW before the LNA can produce
peaking. CSH further degrades the match; therefore, CSH should
not be used for values of RIN that are greater than 100 Ω.
Figure 48 and Figure 49 are simulations of noise figure vs. RS
results using these configurations and an input-referred noise
voltage of 2.5 nV/√Hz for the VGA. Unterminated (RFB = ∞)
operation exhibits the lowest equivalent input noise and noise
figure. Figure 49 shows the noise figure vs. source resistance
rising at low RS—where the LNA voltage noise is large compared
with the source noise—and at high RS due to the noise contribution
from RFB. The lowest NF is achieved when RS matches RIN.
Table 10 lists the recommended values for RFB and CSH in terms
of RIN.
CFB is needed in series with RFB because the dc levels at Pin LO-x
and Pin LI-x are unequal.

The main purpose of input impedance matching is to improve the
transient response of the system. With shunt termination, the input
noise increases due to the thermal noise of the matching resistor
and the increased contribution of the LNA input voltage noise
generator. With active termination, however, the contributions
of both are smaller (by a factor of 1/(1 + LNA Gain)) than they
would be for shunt termination.
Input Overdrive
Excellent overload behavior is of primary importance in
ultrasound. Both the LNA and VGA have built-in overdrive
protection and quickly recover after an overload event.
As with any amplifier, voltage clamping prior to the inputs
is highly recommended if the application is subject to high
transient voltages.
Figure 48 shows the relative noise figure performance. With an
LNA gain of 21.3 dB, the input impedance was swept with RS to
preserve the match at each point. The noise figures for a source
impedance of 50 ꢀ are 7.3 dB, 4.2 dB, and 2.8 dB for the shunt
termination, active termination, and unterminated configurations,
respectively. The noise figures for 200 ꢀ are 4.5 dB, 1.7 dB, and
1.0 dB, respectively.
Figure 50 shows a simplified ultrasound transducer interface.
A common transducer element serves the dual functions of
transmitting and receiving ultrasound energy. During the
transmitting phase, high voltage pulses are applied to the ceramic
elements. A typical transmit/receive (T/R) switch can consist of
four high voltage diodes in a bridge configuration. Although the
diodes ideally block transmit pulses from the sensitive receiver
input, diode characteristics are not ideal, and the resulting leakage
transients imposed on the LI-x inputs can be problematic.
Figure 49 shows the noise figure as it relates to RS for various
values of RIN, which is helpful for design purposes.
12.0
The external input overload protection scheme also contains a
pair of back-to-back signal diodes that should be in place prior to
the ac coupling capacitors. Keep in mind that all diodes are prone
to exhibiting some amount of shot noise. Many types of diodes are
available for achieving the desired noise performance. The
configuration shown in Figure 50 tends to add 2 nV/√Hz of
input-referred noise. Decreasing the 5 kΩ resistor and increasing
the 2 kΩ resistor may improve noise contribution, depending on
the application. With the diodes shown in Figure 50, clamping
levels of 0.5 V or less significantly enhance the overload
performance of the system.

Because ultrasound is a pulse system and time-of-flight is used
to determine depth, quick recovery from input overloads is
essential. Overload can occur in the preamplifier and in the
VGA. Immediately following a transmit pulse, the typical VGA
gains are low, and the LNA is subject to overload from T/R
switch leakage. With increasing gain, the VGA can become
overloaded due to strong echoes that occur near field echoes
and acoustically dense materials, such as bone.

Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA)
VGA Noise
The differential X-AMP VGA provides precise input attenu-
ation and interpolation. It has a low input-referred noise of
2.5 nV/√Hz and excellent gain linearity. The VGA is driven by
a fully differential input signal from the LNA. The X-AMP archi-
tecture produces a linear-in-dB gain law conformance and low
distortion levels—only deviating 0.5 dB or less from the ideal.
The gain slope is monotonic with respect to the control voltage
and is stable with variations in process, temperature, and supply.
The resulting total gain range is 45 dB, which allows for range
loss at the endpoints.
In a typical application, a VGA compresses a wide dynamic
range input signal to within the input span of an ADC. The
input-referred noise of the LNA limits the minimum resolvable
input signal, whereas the output-referred noise, which depends
primarily on the VGA, limits the maximum instantaneous
dynamic range that can be processed at any one particular gain
control voltage. This latter limit is set in accordance with the
total noise floor of the ADC.
Output-referred noise as a function of GAIN+ is shown in
Figure 7, Figure 8, and Figure 10 for the short-circuit input
conditions. The input noise voltage is simply equal to the output
noise divided by the measured gain at each point in the control
range.
The X-AMP inputs are part of a programmable gain feedback
amplifier (PGA) that completes the VGA. The PGA in the VGA
can be programmed to a gain of 21 dB, 24 dB, 27 dB, or 30 dB.
This allows for optimization of channel gain for different imaging
modes in the ultrasound system. The VGA bandwidth is
approximately 100 MHz. The input stage is designed to ensure
excellent frequency response uniformity across the gain setting.
For TGC mode, this minimizes time delay variation across the
gain range.
The output-referred noise is a flat 40 nV/√Hz (postamp gain =
24 dB) over most of the gain range because it is dominated by
the fixed output-referred noise of the VGA. At the high end of
the gain control range, the noise of the LNA and of the source
prevail. The input-referred noise reaches its minimum value
near the maximum gain control voltage, where the input-
referred contribution of the VGA is miniscule.
Gain Control
The gain control interface, GAIN , is a differential input. VGAIN
varies the gain of all VGAs through the interpolator by selecting
the appropriate input stages connected to the input attenuator.
For GAIN− at 0.8 V, the nominal GAIN+ range for 29.4 dB/V is
0 V to 1.6 V, with the best gain linearity from approximately
0.16 V to 1.44 V, where the error is typically less than 0.5 dB.
For GAIN+ voltages greater than 1.44 V and less than 0.16 V,
the error increases. The value of GAIN+ can exceed the supply
voltage by 1 V without gain foldover.
At lower gains, the input-referred noise and, therefore, the
noise figure, increases as the gain decreases. The instantaneous
dynamic range of the system is not lost, however, because the
input capacity increases as the input-referred noise increases.
The contribution of the ADC noise floor has the same depen-
dence. The important relationship is the magnitude of the VGA
output noise floor relative to that of the ADC.
Gain control noise is a concern in very low noise applications.
Thermal noise in the gain control interface can modulate the
channel gain. The resultant noise is proportional to the output
signal level and is usually evident only when a large signal is
present. The gain interface includes an on-chip noise filter,
which significantly reduces this effect at frequencies above
5 MHz. Care should be taken to minimize noise impinging at
the GAIN inputs. An external RC filter can be used to remove
Gain control response time is less than 750 ns to settle within 10%
of the final value for a change from minimum to maximum gain.
There are two ways in which the GAIN+ and GAIN− pins can
be interfaced. Using a single-ended method, a Kelvin type of
connection to ground can be used, as shown in Figure 51. For
driving multiple devices, it is preferable to use a differential
method, as shown in Figure 52. In either method, the GAIN+
and GAIN− pins should be dc-coupled and driven to accom-
modate a 1.6 V full-scale input.
V
GAIN source noise. The filter bandwidth should be sufficient to
accommodate the desired control bandwidth.
Antialiasing Filter (AAF)
The filter that the signal reaches prior to the ADC is used to
reject dc signals and to band limit the signal for antialiasing.
The antialiasing filter is a combination of a single-pole high-
pass filter and a second-order low-pass filter. The high-pass
filter can be configured at a ratio of the low-pass filter cutoff.
This is selectable through the SPI.

The filter uses on-chip tuning to trim the capacitors and, in

The AD9279 uses a pipelined ADC architecture. The quantized
output from each stage is combined into a 12-bit result in the
digital correction logic. The pipelined architecture permits the
first stage to operate on a new input sample and the remaining
stages to operate on preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the
rising edge of the clock.

In some applications, it is acceptable to drive the sample clock
inputs with a single-ended CMOS signal. In such applications,
CLK+ should be driven directly from a CMOS gate, and the
CLK− pin should be bypassed to ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor
in parallel with a 39 kΩ resistor (see Figure 56). Although the
CLK+ input circuit supply is AVDD1 (1.8 V), this input is
designed to withstand input voltages of up to 3.3 V, making the
selection of the drive logic voltage very flexible.

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 output clocks.
Clock Input Considerations
For optimum performance, the AD9279 sample clock inputs
(CLK+ and CLK−) should be clocked with a differential signal.
This signal is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins
via a transformer or capacitors. These pins are biased internally
and require no additional bias.

A low jitter clock source, such as the Valpey Fisher oscillator,

ential using an RF transformer. The back-to-back Schottky
diodes across the secondary transformer limit clock excursions

Clock Duty Cycle Considerations

1000
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a
variety of internal timing signals. As a result, these ADCs may
be sensitive to the clock duty cycle. Commonly, a 5% tolerance is
required on the clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance
characteristics. The AD9279 contains a duty cycle stabilizer (DCS)
that retimes the nonsampling edge, providing an internal clock
signal with a nominal 50% duty cycle. This allows a wide range
of clock input duty cycles without affecting the performance of
the AD9279. When the DCS is on, noise and distortion perfor-
mance are nearly flat for a wide range of duty cycles. However,
some applications may require the DCS function to be off. If so,
keep in mind that the dynamic range performance can be affected
when operated in this mode. See Table 19 for more details on
using this feature.
ANALOG INPUT FREQUENCY (MHz)
Figure 58. Ideal SNR vs. Input Frequency and Jitter
Power Dissipation and Power-Down Mode
As shown in Figure 59 and Figure 60, the power dissipated by
the AD9279 is proportional to its sample rate. The digital power
dissipation does not vary significantly because it is determined
primarily by the DRVDD supply and the bias current of the
LVDS output drivers.

The duty cycle stabilizer uses a delay-locked loop (DLL) to
create the nonsampling edge. As a result, any changes to the
sampling frequency require approximately eight clock cycles
to allow the DLL to acquire and lock to the new rate.

In this equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the root mean
square of all jitter sources, including the clock input, analog input
signal, and ADC aperture jitter. IF undersampling applications
are particularly sensitive to jitter (see Figure 58).
MODE III, fSAMPLE = 80MSPS
The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases
where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9279.
Power supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the
ADC output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal
with digital noise. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators make
the best clock sources, such as the Valpey Fisher VFAC3 series.
If the clock is generated from another type of source (by gating,
dividing, or other methods), it should be retimed by the original
clock during the last step.

The AD9279 features scalable LNA bias currents (see Table 19,
Register 0x12). The default LNA bias current settings are high.
Rev. 0 | Page 28 of 44
AD9279
Figure 61 shows the typical reduction of AVDD2 current with
each bias setting. It is also recommended that the LNA offset be
adjusted using Register 0x10 (see Table 19) when the LNA bias
setting is low.
A number of other power-down options are available when
using the SPI port interface. The user can individually power
down each channel or put the entire device into standby mode.
This allows the user to keep the internal PLL powered up when
fast wake-up times are required. The wake-up time is slightly
dependent on gain. To achieve a 1 ꢁs wake-up time when the
device is in standby mode, 0.8 V must be applied to the GAIN
pins. See Table 19 for more details on using these features.

Power and Ground Recommendations
When connecting power to the AD9279, it is recommended that
two separate 1.8 V supplies be used: one for analog (AVDD)
and one for digital (DRVDD). If only one 1.8 V supply is
available, it should be routed to the AVDD1 pin first and then
tapped off and isolated with a ferrite bead or a filter choke
preceded by decoupling capacitors for the DRVDD pin. The
user should employ several decoupling capacitors on all
supplies to cover both high and low frequencies. Locate these
capacitors close to the point of entry at the PCB level and close
to the part, with minimal trace lengths.

By asserting the PDWN pin high, the AD9279 is placed into
power-down mode. In this state, the device typically dissipates
5 mW. During power-down, the LVDS output drivers are placed
into a high impedance state. The AD9279 returns to normal
operating mode when the PDWN pin is pulled low. This pin
is both 1.8 V and 3.3 V tolerant.
A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the
AD9279. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
analog, digital, and clock sections of the PCB, optimum perfor-
mance can be easily achieved.
Digital Outputs and Timing
The AD9279 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, using Register 0x14, Bit 6. This LVDS
standard can further reduce the overall power dissipation of the
device by approximately 36 mW.
By asserting the STBY pin high, the AD9279 is placed into a
standby mode. In this state, the device typically dissipates
175 mW. During standby, the entire part is powered down
except the internal references. The LVDS output drivers are
placed into a high impedance state. This mode is well suited for
applications that require power savings because it allows the
device to be powered down when not in use and then quickly
powered up. The time to power the device back up is also greatly
reduced. The AD9279 returns to normal operating mode when
the STBY pin is pulled low. This pin is both 1.8 V and 3.3 V
tolerant.
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 at the receiver.
The AD9279 LVDS outputs facilitate interfacing with LVDS
receivers in custom ASICs and FPGAs that have LVDS capability
for superior switching performance in noisy environments.
Single point-to-point network topologies are recommended with
a 100 Ω termination resistor placed as close to the receiver as
possible. No far-end receiver termination and poor differential
trace routing may result in timing errors. It is recommended
that the trace length be no longer than 24 inches and that the
differential output traces be kept close together and at equal
lengths. An example of the FCO (CH2), DCO (CH1), and data
(CH3) stream with proper trace length and position is shown in
Figure 62.
In power-down mode, low power dissipation is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, PLL, and biasing
networks. The decoupling capacitors on VREF are discharged
when entering power-down mode and must be recharged when
returning to normal operation. As a result, the wake-up time is
related to the time spent in the power-down mode: shorter
cycles result in proportionally shorter wake-up times. To restore
the device to full operation, approximately 0.5 ms is required
when using the recommended 1 ꢁF and 0.1 ꢁF decoupling
capacitors on the VREF pin and the 0.01 ꢁF decoupling
capacitors on the GAIN pins. Most of this time is dependent
on the gain decoupling: higher value decoupling capacitors on
the GAIN pins result in longer wake-up times.

Data from each ADC is serialized and provided on a separate
channel. The data rate for each serial stream is equal to 12 bits
times the sample clock rate, with a maximum of 960 Mbps
(12 bits × 80 MSPS = 960 Mbps). The lowest typical conversion
rate is 10 MSPS, but the PLL can be set up for encode rates as
low as 5 MSPS via the SPI if lower sample rates are required for
a specific application. See Table 19 for details on enabling this
feature.

An example of the LVDS output using the ANSI-644 standard

with trace lengths less than 24 inches on regular FR-4 material
is shown in Figure 63. Figure 64 shows an example of the trace
lengths exceeding 24 inches on regular FR-4 material. Notice
that the TIE jitter histogram reflects the decrease of the data eye
opening as the edge deviates from the ideal position; therefore,
the user must determine whether 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 (and, therefore, increase the current) of all
eight outputs to drive longer trace lengths (see Figure 65). Even
though this produces sharper rise and fall times on the data
edges, is less prone to bit errors, and improves frequency
distribution (see Figure 65), the power dissipation of the
DRVDD supply increases when this option is used.

In cases that require increased driver strength to the DCO and
FCO outputs because of load mismatch, Register 0x15 allows
the user to double the drive strength. To do this, set the appro-
priate bit in Register 0x05. Note that this feature cannot be used
with Bits[5:4] in Register 0x15 because these bits take precedence
over this feature. See Table 19 for more details.

AD9279
Two output clocks are provided to assist in capturing data from
the AD9279. DCO is used to clock the output data and is equal
to six times the sampling clock rate. Data is clocked out of the
AD9279 and must be captured on the rising and falling edges
of DCO , which supports double data rate (DDR) capturing.
The frame clock output (FCO ) is used to signal the start of a
new output byte and is equal to the sampling clock rate. See the
timing diagram shown in Figure 2 for more information.
stream. However, this order this can be inverted so that the LSB is
represented first in the data output serial stream (see Figure 3).
There are 12 digital output test pattern options available that
can be initiated through the SPI. This feature is useful when
validating receiver capture and timing. See Table 13 for the
output bit sequencing options available. Some test patterns have
two serial sequential words and can be alternated in various
ways, depending on the test pattern chosen. Note that some
patterns may not adhere to the data format select option. In
addition, custom user-defined test patterns can be assigned in
the user pattern registers (Address 0x19 through Address 0x1C).
All test mode options except PN sequence short and PN sequence
long can support 8- to 14-bit word lengths to verify data capture
to the receiver.
An 8-, 10-, or 14-bit serial stream can also be initiated from the
SPI. This allows the user to implement different serial streams and
to test device compatibility with lower and higher resolution
systems. When changing the resolution to an 8- or 10-bit serial
stream, the data stream is shortened. When using the 14-bit
option, the data stream stuffs two 0s at the end of the normal
12-bit serial data.
The PN sequence short pattern produces a pseudo random
bit sequence that repeats itself every 29 − 1 bits, or 511 bits. A
description of the PN sequence short and how it is generated
can be found in Section 5.1 of the ITU-T O.150 (05/96) standard.
The only difference is that the starting value is a specific value
instead of all 1s (see Table 14 for the initial values).
When using the SPI, all of the data outputs can also be inverted
from their nominal state by setting Bit 2 in the OUTPUT_MODE
register (Address 0x14). This is not to be confused with inverting
the serial stream to an LSB first mode. In default mode, as shown
in Figure 2, the MSB is represented first in the data output serial

AD9279
These capacitor values are recommended for the ADC to
properly settle and acquire the next valid sample.
The PN sequence long pattern produces a pseudo random bit
sequence that repeats itself every 223 − 1 bits, or 8,388,607 bits.
A description of the PN sequence long and how it is generated
can be found in Section 5.6 of the ITU-T O.150 (05/96) standard.
The only differences are that the starting value is a specific value
instead of all 1s and that the AD9279 inverts the bit stream with
relation to the ITU-T standard (see Table 14 for the initial
values).
The reference settings can be selected using the SPI. The settings
allow two options: using the internal reference or using an
external reference. The internal reference option is the default
setting and has a resulting differential span of 2 V p-p.

CW DOPPLER OPERATION
Each channel of the AD9279 includes a I/Q demodulator. Each
demodulator has an individual programmable phase shifter. The
I/Q demodulator is ideal for phased array beamforming applica-
tions in medical ultrasound. Each channel can be programmed
for 16 delay states/360° (or 22.5°/step), selectable via the SPI port.
The part has a RESET input used to synchronize the LO dividers of
each channel. If multiple AD9279s are used, a common RESET
across the array ensures a synchronized phase for all channels.
Internal to the AD9279, the individual Channel I and Channel Q
outputs are current summed. If multiple AD9279s are used, the
I and Q outputs from each AD9279 can be current summed and
converted to a voltage using an external transimpedance amplifier.
See the Memory Map section for information on how to change
these additional digital output timing features through the SPI.
SDIO Pin
This pin is required to operate the SPI. It has an internal 30 kΩ
pull-down resistor that pulls this pin low and is only 1.8 V
tolerant. If applications require that this pin be driven from a
3.3 V logic level, insert a 1 kΩ resistor in series with this pin to
limit the current.
SCLK Pin
This pin is required to operate the SPI port interface. It has an
internal 30 kΩ pull-down resistor that pulls this pin low and is
both 1.8 V and 3.3 V tolerant.
Quadrature Generation
The internal 0° and 90° LO phases are digitally generated by
a divide-by-4 logic circuit. The divider is dc-coupled and
inherently broadband; the maximum LO frequency is limited
only by its switching speed. The duty cycle of the quadrature LO
signals is intrinsically 50% and is unaffected by the asymmetry
of the externally connected 4LO input. Furthermore, the divider
is implemented such that the 4LO signal reclocks the final flip-
flops that generate the internal LO signals and, thereby,
CSB Pin
This pin is required to operate the SPI port interface. It has an
internal 70 kΩ pull-up resistor that pulls this pin high and is
both 1.8 V and 3.3 V tolerant.
RBIAS Pin
To set the internal core bias current of the ADC, place a resistor
nominally equal to 10.0 kΩ to ground at the RBIAS pin. Using a
resistor other than the recommended 10.0 kΩ resistor for RBIAS
degrades the performance of the device. Therefore, it is imperative
that at least a 1% tolerance on this resistor be used to achieve
consistent performance.
minimizes noise introduced by the divide circuitry.
For optimum performance, the 4LO input is driven differen-
tially, as on the AD9279 evaluation board (see the Ordering
Guide). The common-mode voltage on each pin is approx-
imately 1.2 V with the nominal 3 V supply. It is important to
ensure that the LO source have very low phase noise (jitter), a
fast slew rate, and an adequate input level to obtain optimum
performance of the CW signal chain.
Voltage Reference
A stable and accurate 0.5 V voltage reference is built into the
AD9279. This is gained up internally by a factor of 2, setting
VREF to 1.0 V, which results in a full-scale differential input span
of 2.0 V p-p for the ADC. VREF is set internally by default, but
the VREF pin can be driven externally with a 1.0 V reference to
achieve more accuracy. However, the AD9279 does not support
ADC full-scale ranges below 2.0 V p-p.
Beamforming applications require a precise channel-to-channel
phase relationship for coherence among multiple channels. A
RESET pin is provided to synchronize the LO divider circuits
in different AD9279s when they are used in arrays. The RESET
pin resets the dividers to a known state after power is applied to
multiple AD9279s. Accurate channel-to-channel phase matching
can only be achieved via a common pulse on the RESET pin when
using more than one AD9279.
When applying the decoupling capacitors to the VREF pin,
use ceramic, low ESR capacitors. These capacitors should be
close to the reference pin and on the same layer of the PCB as
the AD9279. The VREF pin should have both a 0.1 ꢁF capacitor
and a 1 ꢁF capacitor connected in parallel to the analog ground.

AD9279
I/Q Demodulator and Phase Shifter
Dynamic Range and Noise
The I/Q demodulators consist of double-balanced passive mixers.
The RF input signals are converted into currents by transconduc-
tance stages that have a maximum differential input signal
capability matching the LNA output full scale. These currents
are then presented to the mixers, which convert them to base-
band (RF − LO) and twice RF (RF + LO). The signals are phase
shifted according to the codes programmed into the SPI latch
(see Table 16). The phase shift function is an integral part of the
overall circuit. The phase shift listed in Column 1 of Table 16 is
defined as being between the baseband I or Q channel outputs.
As an example, for a common signal applied to a pair of RF inputs
to an AD9279, the baseband outputs are in phase for matching
phase codes. However, if the phase code for Channel 1 is 0000
and that of Channel 2 is 0001, then Channel 2 leads Channel 1
by 22.5°.

channels of the AD9279. Two stages of ADA4841 amplifiers are
used. The first stage does an I-to-V conversion and filters the
high frequency content that results from the demodulation
process. In beamforming applications, the I and Q outputs of a
number of receiver channels are summed. In the AD9279, the
summation of eight channels is the input to the first stage of the
ADA4841s. The second stage of ADA4841 amplifiers is used to
do the summation of additional AD9279 to ADA4841 outputs,
provide gain, and drive the AD7982, 18-bit SAR ADC. The
dynamic range of the system increases by the factor 10log10(N),
where N is the total number of channels (assuming random
uncorrelated noise). The noise in the 8-channel example of
Figure 66 is increased by 9 dB while the signal quadruples (18 dB),
yielding an aggregate SNR improvement of (18 − 9) = 9 dB.
The output-referred noise of the CW signal path depends on
the LNA gain and the selection of the first stage summing
amplifier and the value of RFILT. To determine the output
referred noise, it is important to know the active low-pass filter
(LPF) values RA, RFILT, and CFILT, shown in Figure 66. Typical
filter values for all eight channels of a single AD9279 are 100 Ω
for RA, 500 Ω for RFILT, and 2.0 nF for CFILT; these values
implement a 100 kHz single-pole LPF.

If the RF and LO are offset by 10 kHz, the demodulated signal is
10 kHz and is passed by the LPF. The single-channel mixing gain
from the RF input to the ADA4841 output (for example, I1´,
Q1´) is approximately the LNA gain for RFILT and CFILT of 500 Ω
and 2.0 nF.

This gain can be increased by increasing the filter resistor while
maintaining the corner frequency. The factor limiting the mag-
nitude of the gain is the output swing and drive capability of the
op amp selected for the I-to-V converter, in this example, the
ADA4841. Because any amplifier has limited drive capability,
there is a finite number of channels that can be summed.

Figure 66. Typical Connection Interface for I/Q Outputs in CW Mode
The resultant I and Q signals are filtered and then sampled by
two high resolution analog-to-digital converters. The sampled
signals are processed to extract the relevant Doppler information.
Phase Compensation and Analog Beamforming
Beamforming, as applied to medical ultrasound, is defined as
the phase alignment and summation of signals generated from a
common source but received at different times by a multielement
ultrasound transducer. Beamforming has two functions: it imparts
directivity to the transducer, enhancing its gain, and it defines a
focal point within the body from which the location of the return-
ing echo is derived. The primary application for the AD9279 I/Q
demodulators is in analog beamforming circuits for ultrasound
CW Doppler.
Alternatively, the RF signal can be processed by downconversion
on each channel individually, phase shifting the downconverted
signal, and then combining all channels. Because the dynamic
range expansion from beamforming occurs after demodulation,
the demodulator dynamic range has little effect on the output
dynamic range. The AD9279 implements this architecture. The
downconversion is done by an I/Q demodulator on each channel,
and the summed current output is the same as in the delay line
approach. The subsequent filters after the I-to-V conversion
and the ADCs are similar.
Modern ultrasound machines used for medical applications
employ an array of receivers for beamforming, with typical CW
Doppler array sizes of up to 64 receiver channels that are phase
shifted and summed together to extract coherent information.
When used in multiples, the desired signals from each of the
channels can be summed to yield a larger signal (increased by a
factor N, where N is the number of channels), whereas the noise
is increased by the square root of the number of channels. This
technique enhances the signal-to-noise performance of the
machine. The critical elements in a beamformer design are the
means to align the incoming signals in the time domain and the
means to sum the individual signals into a composite whole.
For CW Doppler operation, the AD9279 integrates the LNA,
phase shifter, frequency conversion, and I/Q demodulation
into a single package and directly yields the baseband signal.
Figure 67 is a simplified diagram showing the concept for four
channels. The ultrasound wave (US wave) is received by four
transducer elements, TE1 through TE4, in an ultrasound probe
and generates signals E1 through E4. In this example, the phase
at TE1 leads the phase at TE2 by 45°.
In a real application, the phase difference depends on the
element spacing, wavelength (λ), speed of sound, angle of
incidence, and other factors. In Figure 67, the signals E1
through E4 are amplified by the low noise amplifiers. For
optimum signal-to-noise performance, the output of the LNA
is applied directly to the input of the demodulators. To sum the
signals E1 through E4, E2 is shifted 45° relative to E1 by setting
the phase code in Channel 2 to 0010, E3 is shifted 90° (0100), and
E4 is shifted 135° (0110). The phase aligned current signals at
In traditional analog beamformers incorporating Doppler, a
V-to-I converter per channel and a crosspoint switch precede
passive delay lines used as a combined phase shifter and
summing circuit. The system operates at the carrier frequency
(RF) through the delay line, which also sums the signals from
the various channels, and then the combined signal is down-
converted by an I/Q demodulator. The dynamic range of the
demodulator can limit the achievable dynamic range.

operation of an array of AD9279s, the RESET pulse must go low
on all devices before the next rising edge of the 4LO clock.
Therefore, it is best to have the RESET pulse go low on the falling
edge of the 4LO clock; at the very least, the tSETUP should be ≥ 5 ns.
An optimal timing setup is for the RESET pulse to go high on a
4LO falling edge and to go low on a 4LO falling edge; this gives
15 ns of setup time even at a 4LO frequency of 32 MHz (8 MHz
internal LO). Use the following procedure to check the synch-
ronization of multiple AD9279s:
CW Application Information
The RESET pin is used to synchronize the LO dividers in AD9279
arrays. Because they are driven by the same internal LO, the four
channels in any AD9279 are inherently synchronous. However,
when multiple AD9279s are used, it is possible that their dividers
wake up in different phase states. The function of the RESET
pin is to phase align all the LO signals in multiple AD9279s.
1. Activate at least one channel per AD9279 by setting the
appropriate channel enable bit in the serial interface.
2. Set the phase code of all AD9279 channels to the same
logic state, for example, 0000.
3. Apply the same test signal to all devices to generate a sine
wave in the baseband output and measure the output of
one channel per device.
The 4LO divider of each AD9279 can be initiated in one of four
possible states: 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270° relative to other AD9279s.
The internally generated I/Q signals of each AD9279 LO are always
at a 90° angle relative to each other, but a phase shift can occur
during power-up between the dividers of multiple AD9279s
used in a common array.
4. Apply a RESET pulse to all AD9279s.
The RESET mechanism also allows the measurement of non-
mixing gain from the RF input to the output. The rising edge of
the active high RESET pulse can occur at any time; however, the
duration should be ≥ 20 ns minimum. When the RESET pulse
transitions from high to low, the LO dividers are reactivated on
the next rising edge of the 4LO clock. To guarantee synchronous
5. Because all phase codes of the AD9279s should be the
same, the combined signal of multiple devices should be N
times greater than a single channel. If the combined signal
is less than N times one channel, one or more of the LO
phases of the individual AD9279s are in error.

AD9279
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9279 serial port interface allows the user to configure
the signal chain for specific functions or operations through a
structured register space provided inside the chip. 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, as
documented in the Memory Map section. Detailed operational
information can be found in the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
In addition to the operation modes, the SPI port can be configured
to operate in different manners. For applications that do not
require a control port, the CSB line can be tied and held high.
This places the remainder of the SPI pins in their secondary
mode, as defined in the SDIO Pin and SCLK Pin sections. CSB
can also be tied low to enable 2-wire mode. When CSB is tied
low, SCLK and SDIO are the only pins required for communication.
Although the device is synchronized during power-up, caution
must be exercised when using this mode to ensure that the
serial port remains synchronized with the CSB line. When
operating in 2-wire mode, it is recommended that a 1-, 2-, or
3-byte transfer be used exclusively. Without an active CSB line,
streaming mode can be entered but not exited.
Three pins define the serial port interface, or SPI: SCLK, SDIO,
and CSB (see Table 17). The SCLK (serial clock) pin is used to
synchronize the read and write data presented to the device. The
SDIO (serial data input/output) pin is a dual-purpose pin that
allows data to be sent to and read from the internal memory map
registers of the device. The CSB (chip select bar) pin is an active
low control that enables or disables 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 be used to both program the chip and to read
the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a read-
back 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.
Table 17. Serial Port Pins
Pin
Function
SCLK
Serial clock. Serial shift clock input. SCLK is used to
synchronize serial interface reads and writes.
Data can be sent in MSB first mode or LSB first mode. MSB
first mode is the default at power-up and can be changed by
adjusting the configuration register. For more information
about this and other features, see the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
SDIO
Serial data input/output. Dual-purpose pin that
typically serves as an input or an output, depending
on the instruction sent and the relative position in
the timing frame.
CSB
Chip select bar (active low). This control gates the
read and write cycles.
HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Table 17 constitute the physical interface
between the user’s programming device and the serial port of
the AD9279. The SCLK and CSB pins function as inputs when
using the SPI. The SDIO pin is bidirectional, functioning as an
input during write phases and as an output during readback.
The falling edge of CSB in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK determines the start of the framing sequence. During an
instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted, followed
by one or more data bytes, which is determined by Bit Field W0
and Bit Field W1. An example of the serial timing and its defini-
tions can be found in Figure 69 and Table 18.
If multiple SDIO pins share a common connection, ensure that
proper VOH levels are met. Figure 68 shows the number of SDIO
pins that can be connected together and the resulting VOH level,
assuming the same load for each AD9279.
During normal operation, CSB is used to signal to the device
that SPI commands are to be received and processed. When
CSB is brought low, the device processes SCLK and SDIO to
execute instructions. Normally, CSB remains low until the
communication cycle is complete. However, if connected to a
slow device, CSB can be brought high between bytes, allowing
older microcontrollers enough time to transfer data into shift
registers. CSB can be stalled when transferring one, two, or three
bytes of data. When W0 and W1 are set to 11, the device enters
streaming mode and continues to process data, either reading
or writing, until CSB is taken high to end the communication
cycle. This allows complete memory transfers without the need
for additional instructions. Regardless of the mode, if CSB is taken
high in the middle of a byte transfer, the SPI state machine is
reset and the device waits for a new instruction.

MEMORY MAP
All registers except Register 0x00, Register 0x04, Register 0x05,
and Register 0xFF are buffered with a master slave latch and
require writing to the transfer bit. For more information on this
and other functions, consult the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
READING THE MEMORY MAP TABLE
Each row in the memory map register table has eight bit loca-
tions. The memory map is roughly divided into three sections:
the chip configuration register map (Address 0x00 to Address 0x02),
the device index and transfer register map (Address 0x04 to
Address 0xFF), and the program register map (Address 0x08
to Address 0x2D).
RESERVED LOCATIONS
Undefined memory locations should not be written to except
when writing the default values suggested in this data sheet.
Addresses that have values marked as 0 should be considered
reserved and have a 0 written into their registers during power-up.
The leftmost column of the memory map indicates the register
address, and the default value is shown in the second rightmost
column. The Bit 7 (MSB) column is the start of the default
hexadecimal value given. For example, Address 0x09, the clock
register, has a default value of 0x01, meaning that Bit 7 = 0, Bit 6 =
0, Bit 5 = 0, Bit 4 = 0, Bit 3 = 0, Bit 2 = 0, Bit 1 = 0, and Bit 0 = 1,
or 0000 0001 in binary. This setting is the default for the duty
cycle stabilizer in the on condition. By writing a 0 to Bit 0 of this
address, followed by 0x01 in Register 0xFF (the transfer bit), the
duty cycle stabilizer is turned off. It is important to follow each
writing sequence with a transfer bit to update the SPI registers.
DEFAULT VALUES
After a reset, critical registers are automatically loaded with
default values. These values are indicated in Table 19, where an
X refers to an undefined feature.
LOGIC LEVELS
An explanation of various registers follows: “bit is set” is
synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or “writing Logic 1 for
the bit.” Similarly, “bit is cleared” is synonymous with “bit is set
to Logic 0” or “writing Logic 0 for the bit.”
