GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD9985A is a complete 8-bit, 140 MSPS, monolithic  
analog interface optimized for capturing RGB graphics signals  
from personal computers and workstations. Its 140 MSPS  
encode rate capability and full power analog bandwidth of 300  
MHz support resolutions up to SXGA (1280 × 1024 at 75 Hz).  
When the Coast signal is presented, the PLL maintains its  
output frequency in the absence of Hsync. A sampling phase  
adjustment is provided. Data, Hsync, and clock output phase  
relationships are maintained. The AD9985A also offers full sync  
processing for composite sync and sync-on-green applications.  
The AD9985A includes a 140 MHz triple ADC with internal  
1.25 V reference, a PLL, and programmable gain, offset, and  
clamp control. The user provides only a 3.3 V power supply,  
analog input, and horizontal sync (Hsync) and Coast signals.  
Three-state CMOS outputs can be powered from 2.5 V to 3.3 V.  
A clamp signal is generated internally or can be provided by the  
user through the CLAMP input pin. This interface is fully  
programmable via a 2-wire serial interface.  
Fabricated in an advanced CMOS process, the AD9985A is  
provided in a space-saving 80-lead LQFP surface-mount  
Pb-free plastic package, and is specified over the –40°C to  
+85°C temperature range.  
The AD9985A’s on-chip PLL generates a pixel clock from the  
Hsync input. Pixel clock output frequencies range from 12 MHz  
to 140 MHz. PLL clock jitter is 500 ps p-p typical at 140 MSPS.

Inputs  
RIN  
Description  
Analog Input for Red Channel.  
Analog Input for Green Channel.  
GIN  
BIN  
Analog Input for Blue Channel. High impedance inputs that accept the red, green, and blue channel graphics  
signals, respectively. (The three channels are identical, and can be used for any colors, but colors are assigned for  
convenient reference.) They accommodate input signals ranging from 0.5 V to 1.0 V full scale. Signals should be  
ac-coupled to these pins to support clamp operation.  
HSYNC  
Horizontal Sync Input. This input receives a logic signal that establishes the horizontal timing reference and  
provides the frequency reference for pixel clock generation. The logic sense of this pin is controlled by serial  
Register 0x0E, Bit 6 (Hsync polarity). Only the leading edge of Hsync is active; the trailing edge is ignored. When  
Hsync polarity = 0, the falling edge of Hsync is used. When Hsync polarity = 1, the rising edge is active. The input  
includes a Schmitt trigger for noise immunity, with a nominal input threshold of 1.5 V.  
VSYNC  
SOGIN  
Vertical Sync Input. This is the input for vertical sync.  
Sync-on-Green Input. This input is provided to assist with processing signals with embedded sync, typically on the  
green channel. The pin is connected to a high speed comparator with an internally generated threshold. The  
threshold level can be programmed in 10 mV steps to any voltage between 10 mV and 330 mV above the  
negative peak of the input signal. The default voltage threshold is 150 mV. When connected to an ac-coupled  
graphics signal with embedded sync, it produces a noninverting digital output on SOGOUT. (This is usually a  
composite sync signal, containing both vertical and horizontal sync information that must be separated before  
passing the horizontal sync signal to Hsync.) When not used, this input should be left unconnected. For more  
details on this function and how it should be configured, refer to the Sync-on-Green section.  
CLAMP  
COAST  
External Clamp Input. This logic input can be used to define the time during which the input signal is clamped to  
ground. It should be exercised when the reference dc level is known to be present on the analog input channels,  
typically during the back porch of the graphics signal. The CLAMP pin is enabled by setting control bit clamp  
function to 1, (Register 0x0F, Bit 7, default is 0). When disabled, this pin is ignored and the clamp timing is  
determined internally by counting a delay and duration from the trailing edge of the Hsync input. The logic sense  
of this pin is controlled by clamp polarity Register 0x0F, Bit 6. When not used, this pin must be grounded and  
clamp function programmed to 0.  
Clock Generator Coast Input (Optional). This input can be used to cause the pixel clock generator to stop  
synchronizing with Hsync and continue producing a clock at its current frequency and phase. This is useful when  
processing signals from sources that fail to produce horizontal sync pulses during the vertical interval. The Coast  
signal is generally not required for PC-generated signals. The logic sense of this pin is controlled by Coast polarity  
(Register 0x0F, Bit 3). When not used, this pin can be grounded and Coast polarity programmed to 1, or tied high  
(to VD through a 10 kΩ resistor) and Coast polarity programmed to 0. Coast polarity defaults to 1 at power-up.  
Outputs  
HSOUT  
Horizontal Sync Output. A reconstructed and phase-aligned version of the Hsync input. Both the polarity and  
duration of this output can be programmed via serial bus registers. By maintaining alignment with DATACK and  
Data outputs, data timing with respect to horizontal sync can always be determined.  
VSOUT  
Vertical Sync Output. A reconstructed and phase-aligned version of the video Vsync. The polarity of this output  
can be controlled via a serial bus bit. The placement and duration in all modes is set by the graphics transmitter.  
SOGOUT  
Sync-on-Green Slicer Output. This pin outputs either the signal from the sync-on-green slicer comparator or an  
unprocessed but delayed version of the Hsync input. See the sync processing block diagram (Figure 1ꢀ) to view  
how this pin is connected. (Apart from slicing off SOG, the output from this pin gets no other additional process-  
ing on the AD9985A. Vsync separation is performed via the sync separator.)

exact timing information, refer to Figure 9, Figure 10, and Figure 11.  
Data Clock Output  
DATACK  
Data Output Clock. This is the main clock output signal used to strobe the output data and HSOUT into external  
logic. It is produced by the internal clock generator and is synchronous with the internal pixel sampling clock.  
When the sampling time is changed by adjusting the phase register, the output timing is shifted as well. The Data,  
DATACK, and HSOUT outputs are all moved, so the timing relationship among the signals is maintained.

Internal Reference Bypass. Bypass for the internal 1.25 V band gap reference. It should be connected to ground  
through a 0.1 μF capacitor. The absolute accuracy of this reference is ꢀ%, and the temperature coefficient is 50

be used instead.

Main Power Supply. These pins supply power to the main elements of the circuit. They should be filtered and kept  
as quiet as possible.  
VDD  
Digital Output Power Supply. A large number of output pins (up to 25) switching at high speed (up to 110 MHz)  
generates a lot of power supply transients (noise). These supply pins are identified separately from the VD pins so  
special care can be taken to minimize output noise transferred into the sensitive analog circuitry. If the AD9985A  
is interfacing with lower voltage logic, VDD can be connected to a lower supply voltage (as low as 2.5 V) for  
compatibility.  
PVD  
Clock Generator Power Supply. The most sensitive portion of the AD9985A is the clock generation circuitry. These  
pins provide power to the clock PLL and help the user design for optimal performance. The designer should  
provide quiet, noise-free power to these pins.

AD9985A  
DESIGN GUIDE  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD9985A is a fully integrated solution for capturing analog  
RGB signals and digitizing them for display on flat panel moni-  
tors or projectors. The circuit is ideal for providing a computer  
interface for HDTV monitors or as the front end to high  
performance video scan converters. Implemented in a high  
performance CMOS process, the interface can capture signals  
with pixel rates up to 110 MHz.  
is effective in rolling off the input bandwidth slightly and  
providing a high quality signal over a wider range of conditions.  
Using a Fair-Rite #2508051217Z0 High Speed Signal Chip Bead  
inductor in the circuit of Figure 3 yields good results in most  
applications.

The AD9985A includes all necessary input buffering, signal dc  
restoration (clamping), offset and gain (brightness and contrast)  
adjustment, pixel clock generation, sampling phase control, and  
output data formatting. All controls are programmable via a  
2-wire serial interface. Full integration of these sensitive analog  
functions makes system design straightforward and less  
sensitive to the physical and electrical environment.  
Figure 3. Analog Input Interface Circuit  
HSYNC, VSYNC INPUTS  
The interface also takes a horizontal sync signal, which is used  
to generate the pixel clock and clamp timing. This can be either  
a sync signal directly from the graphics source, or a preproc-  
essed TTL or CMOS level signal.  
With a typical power dissipation of only 500 mW and an  
operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (−40°C to +85°C  
for the AD9985ABST), the device requires no special  
environmental considerations.  
The Hsync input includes a Schmitt trigger buffer for immunity  
to noise and signals with long rise times. In typical PC-based  
graphic systems, the sync signals are simply TTL-level drivers  
feeding unshielded wires in the monitor cable. As such, no  
termination is required.  
DIGITAL INPUTS  
All digital inputs on the AD9985A operate to 3.3 V CMOS  
levels. However, all digital inputs are 5 V tolerant. Applying 5 V  
to them does not cause any damage.  
SERIAL CONTROL PORT  
The serial control port is designed for 3.3 V logic. If there are  
5 V drivers on the bus, these pins should be protected with  
150 Ω series resistors placed between the pull-up resistors and  
the input pins.  
INPUT SIGNAL HANDLING  
The AD9985A has one high impedance analog input pin for  
each of the red, green, and blue channels. They accommodate  
signals ranging from 0.5 V to 1.0 V p-p.  
OUTPUT SIGNAL HANDLING  
The digital outputs are designed and specified to operate from a  
3.3 V power supply (VDD). They can also work with a VDD as low  
as 2.5 V for compatibility with other 2.5 V logic.  
Signals are typically brought onto the interface board via a  
DVI-I connector, a 15-pin D connector, or via BNC connectors.  
The AD9985A should be located as close as practical to the  
input connector. Signals should be routed via matched-  
impedance traces (normally 75 Ω) to the IC input pins.  
CLAMPING  
RGB Clamping  
At this point, the signal should be resistively terminated (75 Ω  
to the signal ground return) and capacitively coupled to the  
AD9985A inputs through 47 nF capacitors. These capacitors  
form part of the dc restoration circuit.  
To properly digitize the incoming signal, the dc offset of the  
input must be adjusted to fit the range of the on-board ADCs.  
Most graphics systems produce RGB signals with black at  
ground and white at approximately 0.75 V. However, if sync  
signals are embedded in the graphics, the sync tip is often at  
ground, black is at 300 mV, and white is at approximately 1.0 V.  
Some common RGB line amplifier boxes use emitter-follower  
buffers to split signals and increase drive capability. This  
introduces a 700 mV dc offset to the signal, which must be  
removed for proper capture by the AD9985A.  
When impedances are perfectly matched, the best performance  
can be obtained with the widest possible signal bandwidth. The  
ultrawide bandwidth inputs of the AD9985A (300 MHz) can  
track the input signal continuously as it moves from one pixel  
level to the next, and digitize the pixel during a long, flat pixel  
time. In many systems, however, there are mismatches,  
reflections, and noise, which can result in excessive ringing and  
distortion of the input waveform. This makes it more difficult  
to establish a sampling phase that provides good image quality.  
It has been shown that a small inductor in series with the input  
The key to clamping is to identify a portion (time) of the signal  
when the graphic system is known to be producing black. An  
offset is then introduced that results in the ADCs producing a

present. The offset then remains in place when other signal  
levels are processed, and the entire signal is shifted to eliminate  
offset errors.  
range of the ADC range (0x80) rather than at the bottom of the  
ADC converter range (0x00).  
Clamping to midscale rather than to ground can be accom-  
plished by setting the clamp select bits in the serial bus register.  
Each of the three converters has its own selection bit so that  
they can be clamped to either midscale or ground independ-  
ently. These bits are located in Register 0x10, Bits [2:0]. The  
midscale reference voltage that each ADC clamps to is provided  
on the MIDSCV pin (Pin 37). This pin should be bypassed to  
ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor, even if midscale clamping is not  
required.  
In most PC graphics systems, black is transmitted between  
active video lines. With CRT displays, when the electron beam  
has completed writing a horizontal line on the screen (at the  
right side), the beam is deflected quickly to the left side of the  
screen (called horizontal retrace), and a black signal is provided  
to prevent the beam from disturbing the image.  
In systems with embedded sync, a blacker-than-black signal  
(Hsync) is produced briefly to signal the CRT that it is time to  
begin a retrace. For obvious reasons, it is important to avoid  
clamping on the tip of Hsync. Fortunately, there is virtually  
always a period following Hsync, called the back porch, when a  
good black reference is provided. This is the time when clamp-  
ing should be performed.  
GAIN AND OFFSET CONTROL  
The AD9985A can accommodate input signals with inputs  
ranging from 0.5 V to 1.0 V full scale. The full-scale range is set  
in three 8-bit registers (red gain, green gain, and blue gain).  
Note that increasing the gain setting results in an image with  
less contrast.  
The clamp timing can be established by simply exercising the  
CLAMP pin at the appropriate time (with External Clamp = 1).  
The polarity of this signal is set by the clamp polarity bit.  
The offset control shifts the entire input range, resulting in a  
change in image brightness. Three 7-bit registers (red offset,  
green offset, blue offset) provide independent settings for each  
channel. The offset controls provide a 63 LSB adjustment  
range. This range is connected with the full-scale range, so if the  
input range is doubled (from 0.5 V to 1.0 V), the offset step size  
is also doubled (from 2 mV per step to 4 mV per step).  
A simpler method of clamp timing uses the AD9985A internal  
clamp timing generator. The clamp placement register is pro-  
grammed with the number of pixel times that should pass after  
the trailing edge of Hsync before clamping starts. A second  
register (clamp duration) sets the duration of the clamp. These  
are both 8-bit values, which provide considerable flexibility in  
clamp generation. The clamp timing is referenced to the trailing  
edge of Hsync because, though Hsync duration can vary widely,  
the back porch (black reference) always follows Hsync. A good  
starting point for establishing clamping is to set the clamp  
placement to 0x09 (providing 9 pixel periods for the graphics  
signal to stabilize after sync) and set the clamp duration to 0x14  
(giving the clamp 20 pixel periods to re-establish the black  
reference).  
Figure 4 shows the interaction of gain and offset controls. The  
magnitude of an LSB in offset adjustment is proportional to the  
full-scale range, so changing the full-scale range also changes  
the offset. The change is minimal if the offset setting is near  
midscale. When changing the offset, the full-scale range is not  
affected, but the full-scale level is shifted by the same amount as  
the zero-scale level.  
OFFSET = 7FH  
OFFSET = 3FH  
1.0  
Clamping is accomplished by placing an appropriate charge on  
the external input coupling capacitor. The value of this  
capacitor affects the performance of the clamp. If it is too small,  
there is a significant amplitude change during a horizontal line  
time (between clamping intervals). If the capacitor is too large,  
it takes excessively long for the clamp to recover from a large  
change in incoming signal offset. The recommended value  
(47 nF) results in recovering from a step error of 100 mV to  
within 1/2 LSB in 10 lines with a clamp duration of 20 pixel  
periods on a 60 Hz SXGA signal.

YUV graphics signals are slightly different from RGB signals, as  
the dc reference level (black level in RGB signals) can be at the  
midpoint of the graphics signal rather than at the bottom. For  
these signals, it might be necessary to clamp to the midscale  
Auto Offset  
In addition to the manual offset adjustment mode (via registers  
0x0B to 0x0D), the AD9985A also includes circuitry to auto-  
matically calibrate the offset for each channel. By monitoring

the output of each ADC during the back porch of the input  
signals, the AD9985A can self-adjust to eliminate any offset  
errors in its own ADC channels, as well as any offset errors  
present on the incoming graphics or video signals.

To activate the auto offset mode, set Register 0x1D, Bit 7 to 1.  
Next, the target code registers (0x19 through 0x1B) must be  
programmed. The values programmed into the target code  
registers should be the output code desired from the AD9985A  
during the back porch reference time. For example, for RGB  
signals, all three registers are normally programmed to code 1,  
while for YPbPr signals, the green (Y) channel is normally  
programmed to code 1, and the blue and red channels (Pb and  
Pr) are normally set to 128. Any target code value between 1  
and 254 can be set, although the AD9985A’s offset range may  
not be able to reach every value. Intended target code values  
range from (but are not limited to) 1 to 40 when ground  
clamping, and 90 to 170 when midscale clamping.

Figure 5. Typical Clamp Configuration  
CLOCK GENERATION  
A phase-locked loop (PLL) is used to generate the pixel clock.  
In this PLL, the Hsync input provides a reference frequency. A  
voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) generates a much higher  
pixel clock frequency. This pixel clock is divided by the PLL  
divide value (Register 0x01 and Register 0x02) and phase  
compared with the Hsync input. Any error is used to shift the  
VCO frequency and maintain lock between the two signals.  
The stability of this clock is a very important element in provid-  
ing the clearest and most stable image. During each pixel time,  
there is a period during which the signal is slewing from the old  
pixel amplitude and settling at its new value. Then, there is a  
time when the input voltage is stable before the signal must slew  
to a new value (Figure 6). The ratio of the slewing time to the  
stable time is a function of the bandwidth of the graphics DAC  
and the bandwidth of the transmission system (cable and  
termination). It is also a function of the overall pixel rate.  
Clearly, if the dynamic characteristics of the system remain  
fixed, the slewing and settling time is, likewise, fixed. This time  
must be subtracted from the total pixel period, leaving the  
stable period. At higher pixel frequencies, the total cycle time is  
shorter, and the stable pixel time also becomes shorter.  
The ability to program a target code for each channel gives  
users a large degree of freedom and flexibility. While in most  
cases all channels are set either to 1 or 128, the flexibility to  
select other values allows the possibility of inserting intentional  
skews between channels. It also allows the ADC range to be  
skewed so that voltages outside of the normal range can be  
digitized. For example, setting the target code to 40 allows the  
sync tip, which is normally below black level, to be digitized and  
evaluated.  
Lastly, when in auto offset mode, the manual offset registers  
(0x0B to 0x0D) have new functionality. The values in these  
registers are digitally added to the value of the ADC output. The  
purpose of doing this is to match a benefit that is present with  
manual offset adjustment. Adjusting these registers is an easy  
way to make brightness adjustments. Although some signal  
range is lost with this method, it has proven to be a very  
popular function. In order to be able to increase and decrease  
brightness, the values in these registers in this mode are signed  
twos complement. The digital adder is only used in auto offset  
mode. Although it cannot be disabled, setting the offset  
registers to all 0s effectively disables it by always adding 0.  
PIXEL CLOCK  
INVALID SAMPLE TIMES  
SYNC-ON-GREEN  
The sync-on-green input operates in two steps. First, it sets a  
baseline clamp level off of the incoming video signal with a  
negative peak detector. Second, it sets the sync trigger level to a  
programmable level (typically 150 mV) above the negative  
peak. The sync-on-green input must be ac-coupled to the green  
analog input through its own capacitor, as shown in Figure 5.  
The value of the capacitor must be 1 nF 20%. If sync-on-green  
is not used, this connection is not required. The sync-on-green  
signal is always negative polarity.  
Figure 6. Pixel Sampling Times  
Any jitter in the clock reduces the precision with which the  
sampling time can be determined, and must also be subtracted  
from the stable pixel time.  
Considerable care has been taken in the design of the  
AD9985A’s clock generation circuit to minimize jitter. As shown  
in Figure 7, the clock jitter of the AD9985A is less than 5% of  
the total pixel time in all operating modes, making the  
reduction in the valid sampling time negligible due to jitter.

5-Bit Phase Adjust Register  
Figure 7. Pixel Clock Jitter vs. Frequency  
The phase of the generated sampling clock can be shifted to  
locate an optimum sampling point within a clock cycle. The  
phase adjust register provides 32 phase-shift steps of 11.25°  
each. The Hsync signal with an identical phase shift is available  
through the HSOUT pin.  
The PLL characteristics are determined by the loop filter design,  
the PLL charge pump current, and the VCO range setting. The  
loop filter design is shown in Figure 8. Recommended settings  
of VCO range and charge pump current for VESA standard  
display modes are listed in Table 9.  
The COAST pin is used to allow the PLL to continue to run at  
the same frequency in the absence of the incoming Hsync signal  
or during disturbances in Hsync (such as equalization pulses).  
This can be used during the vertical sync period, or any other  
time that the Hsync signal is unavailable. The polarity of the  
Coast signal is set through the Coast polarity register. Also, the  
polarity of the Hsync signal is set through the Hsync polarity  
register. If not using automatic polarity detection, the Hsync  
and Coast polarity bits should be set to match the respective  
polarities of the input signals.

POWER MANAGEMENT  
The AD9985A uses the activity detect circuits, the active  
interface bits in the serial bus, the active interface override bits,  
and the power-down bit to determine the correct power state.  
The three power states are full-power, seek mode, and power-  
down. Table 8 summarizes how the AD9985A determines  
which power mode to be in and which circuitry is powered  
on/off in each of these modes. The power-down command has  
priority over the automatic circuitry.  
The input Hsync frequencies range from 15 kHz to 110 kHz.  
The PLL multiplies the frequency of the Hsync signal,  
producing pixel clock frequencies in the range of 12 MHz to  
110 MHz. The divisor register controls the exact multiplication  
factor. This register can be set to any value between 221 and  
4095. (The divide ratio that is actually used is the programmed  
divide ratio plus 1.)  
2-Bit VCO Range Register

To improve the noise performance of the AD9985A, the VCO  
operating frequency range is divided into three overlapping  
regions. The VCO range register sets this operating range.

regions.

TIMING  
Hsync TIMING  
The timing diagrams in this section show the operation of the  
AD9985A.  
Hsync is processed in the AD9985A to eliminate ambiguity in  
the timing of the leading edge with respect to the phase-delayed  
pixel clock and data.  
The output data clock signal is created so that its rising edge  
always occurs between data transitions, and can be used to latch  
the output data externally.  
The Hsync input is used as a reference to generate the pixel  
sampling clock. The sampling phase can be adjusted, with  
respect to Hsync, through a full 360° in 32 steps via the phase  
adjust register (to optimize the pixel sampling time). Display  
systems use Hsync to align memory and display write cycles;  
therefore, it is important to have a stable timing relationship  
between Hsync output (HSOUT) and data clock (DATACK).  
The pipeline in the AD9985A must be flushed before valid data  
becomes available. This means that four data sets are presented  
before valid data is available.  
tPER  
tCYCLE  
Three things happen to Horizontal Sync in the AD9985A. First,  
the polarity of Hsync input is determined and thus has a known  
output polarity. The known output polarity can be programmed  
either active high or active low (Register 0x0E,  
Bit 5). Second, HSOUT is aligned with DATACK and data  
outputs. Third, the duration of HSOUT (in pixel clocks) is set  
via Register 0x07. HSOUT is the sync signal that should be used  
to drive the rest of the display system.

COAST TIMING  
In most computer systems, the Hsync signal is provided  
continuously on a dedicated wire. In these systems, the Coast  
input and function are unnecessary and should not be used, and  
the pin should be permanently connected to the inactive state.  
important to ignore these distortions. If the pixel clock PLL  
detects extraneous pulses, it attempts to lock to this new  
frequency, and changes frequency by the end of the Vsync  
period. It then takes a few lines of correct Hsync timing to  
recover at the beginning of a new frame, resulting in a tearing of  
the image at the top of the display.  
In some systems, however, Hsync is disturbed during the  
vertical sync period (Vsync). In some cases, Hsync pulses  
disappear. In other systems, such as those that use composite  
sync (Csync) signals or embedded sync-on-green (SOG), Hsync  
includes equalization pulses or other distortions during Vsync.  
To avoid upsetting the clock generator during Vsync, it is  
The Coast input is provided to eliminate this problem. It is an  
asynchronous input that disables the PLL input and allows the  
clock to free-run at its then-current frequency. The PLL can  
free-run for several lines without significant frequency drift.

1 The AD9985A only updates the PLL divide ratio when the LSBs are written to (Register 0x02).  
VESA has established some standard timing  
specifications that assist in determining the value for  
PLLDIV as a function of horizontal and vertical  
display resolution and frame rate (Table 8).  
2-WIRE SERIAL CONTROL REGISTER DETAIL CHIP  
IDENTIFICATION  
00  
7–0 Chip Revision  
An 8-bit register that represents the silicon revision.  
However, many computer systems do not conform  
precisely to the recommendations, and these numbers  
should be used only as a guide. The display system  
manufacturer should provide automatic or manual  
means for optimizing PLLDIV. An incorrectly set  
PLLDIV usually produces one or more vertical noise  
bars on the display. The greater the error, the greater  
the number of bars produced.  
PLL DIVIDER CONTROL  
01  
7–0  
PLL Divide Ratio MSBs  
The 8 most significant bits of the 12-bit PLL divide  
ratio PLLDIV. (The operational divide ratio is  
PLLDIV + 1.)  
The PLL derives a master clock from an incoming  
Hsync signal. The master clock frequency is then  
divided by an integer value, such that the output is  
phase-locked to Hsync. This PLLDIV value  
determines the number of pixel times (pixels plus  
horizontal blanking overhead) per line. This is  
typically 20% to 30% more than the number of active  
pixels in the display.  
The power-up default value of PLLDIV is 1693  
(PLLDIVM = 0x69, PLLDIVL = 0xDx).  
The AD9985A updates the full-divide ratio only when  
the LSBs are changed. Writing to the MSB by itself  
does not trigger an update.  
02  
7–4 PLL Divide Ratio LSBs  
The 12-bit value of the PLL divider supports divide  
ratios from 2 to 4095. The higher the value loaded in  
this register, the higher the resulting clock frequency  
with respect to a fixed Hsync frequency.  
The 4 least significant bits of the 12-bit PLL divide  
ratio PLLDIV. The operational divide ratio is  
PLLDIV + 1.

The power-up default value of PLLDIV is 1693  
CLAMP TIMING  
(PLLDIVM = 0x69, PLLDIVL = 0xDx). The

05  
7–0 Clamp Placement  
An 8-bit register that sets the position of the internally  
generated clamp.  
CLOCK GENERATOR CONTROL  
When clamp function (Register 0x0F, Bit 7) = 0, a  
clamp signal is generated internally, at a position  
established by the clamp placement and for a duration  
set by the clamp duration. Clamping is started (clamp  
placement) pixel periods after the trailing edge of  
Hsync. The clamp placement can be programmed to  
any value between 1 and 255.  
03  
7–6 VCO Range Select  
Two bits that establish the operating range of the clock  
generator.  
VCORNGE must be set to correspond with the  
desired operating frequency (incoming pixel rate).  
The PLL gives the best jitter performance at high  
frequencies. For this reason, to output low pixel rates  
and still get good jitter performance, the PLL actually  
operates at a higher frequency but then divides down  
the clock rate afterwards. Table 11 shows the pixel  
rates for each VCO range setting. The PLL output  
divisor is automatically selected with the VCO range  
setting.  
The clamp should be placed during a time that the  
input signal presents a stable black-level reference,  
usually the back porch period between Hsync and the  
image.  
When clamp function = 1, this register is ignored.  
06  
7–0 Clamp Duration  
An 8-bit register that sets the duration of the  
internally generated clamp.  
Table 11. VCO Ranges  
Pixel Clock Range (MHz)  
For the best results, the clamp duration should be set  
to include the majority of the black reference signal  
time that follows the Hsync signal trailing edge.  
Insufficient clamping time can produce brightness  
changes at the top of the screen, and a slow recovery  
from large changes in the average picture level (APL),  
or brightness.

The AD9985A can accommodate input signals with a  
full-scale range of between 0.5 V and 1.0 V p-p.  
Setting REDGAIN to 255 corresponds to a 1.0 V input  
range. A REDGAIN of 0 establishes a 0.5 V input  
range. Increasing REDGAIN results in the picture  
having less contrast (the input signal uses fewer of the  
available converter codes). See Figure 4.

7–3 Clock Phase Adjust  
A 5-bit value that adjusts the sampling phase in 32  
steps across one pixel time. Each step represents an  
11.25° shift in sampling phase.  
The power-up default value is 16.

7–1 Red Channel Offset Adjust  
This offset register and those that follow have two  
modes of operation. One mode is when the auto offset  
function is turned off (manual mode) and the other is  
when auto offset is turned on.  
The default for Hsync polarity override is 0 (polarity  
determined by chip).

HSPOL Hsync Input Polarity  
A bit that must be set to indicate the polarity of the  
Hsync signal that is applied to the PLL Hsync input.  
When in manual offset adjustment mode (auto offset  
turned off), this register behaves exactly like the  
AD9883A. It is a 7-bit offset binary word that sets the  
dc offset of the red channel. One LSB of offset  
Table 14. Hsync Input Polarity Settings

Result  
adjustment equals approximately one LSB change in  
the ADC offset. Therefore, the absolute magnitude of  
the offset adjustment scales as the gain of the channel  
is changed. A nominal setting of 63 results in the  
channel nominally clamping the back porch (during  
the clamping interval) to Code 00. An offset setting of  
127 results in the channel clamping to Code 64 of the  
ADC. An offset setting of 0 clamps to Code –63 (off  
the bottom of the range). Increasing the value of red  
offset decreases the brightness of the channel.

Active low  
Active high (power-up default)  
Active low means the leading edge of the Hsync pulse  
is negative-going. All timing is based on the leading  
edge of Hsync, which is the falling edge. The rising  
edge has no effect.  
Active high is inverted from the traditional Hsync,  
with a positive-going pulse. This means that timing is  
based on the leading edge of Hsync, which is now the  
rising edge.  
When in auto offset mode, the value in this register is  
digitally added to the red channel ADC output. The  
purpose of doing this is to match the operation with  
manual offset adjustment. Adjusting these registers is  
an easy way to make brightness adjustments.  
Although some signal range is lost with this method, it  
has proven to be a very popular function. In order to  
be able to increase and decrease brightness, the values  
in these registers in this mode are signed twos comple-  
ment (vs. manual mode, where the values in this  
register are binary). The digital adder is used only in  
auto offset mode. Although it cannot be disabled,  
setting this register to all 0s effectively disables it by  
always adding 0.  
The device operates if this bit is set incorrectly, but the  
internally generated clamp position, as established by  
clamp placement (Register 0x05), is not placed as  
expected, which can generate clamping errors.

AD9985A  
2-WIRE SERIAL CONTROL PORT  
A 2-wire serial interface control interface is provided. Two  
AD9985A devices can be connected to the 2-wire serial  
interface; each device has a unique address.  
DATA TRANSFER VIA SERIAL INTERFACE  
For each byte of data read or written, the MSB is the first bit of  
the sequence.  
The 2-wire serial interface comprises a clock (SCL) and a  
bidirectional data (SDA) pin. The analog flat panel interface  
acts as a slave for receiving and transmitting data over the serial  
interface. When the serial interface is not active, the logic levels  
on SCL and SDA are pulled high by external pull-up resistors.  
If the AD9985A does not acknowledge the master device during  
a write sequence, the SDA remains high so the master can  
generate a stop signal. If the master device does not acknowl-  
edge the AD9985A during a read sequence, the AD9985A  
interprets this as end-of-data. The SDA remains high so the  
master can generate a stop signal.  
Data received or transmitted on the SDA line must be stable for  
the duration of the positive-going SCL pulse. Data on SDA must  
change only when SCL is low. If SDA changes state while SCL is  
high, the serial interface interprets that action as a start or stop  
sequence.  
Writing data to specific control registers of the AD9985A  
requires that the 8-bit address of the control register of interest  
be written after the slave address has been established. This  
control register address is the base address for subsequent write  
operations. The base address auto-increments by one for each  
byte of data written after the data byte intended for the base  
address.  
The components to serial bus operation are  
Start signal  
Slave address byte  
Base register address byte  
Data byte to read or write  
Stop signal  
Data is read from the control registers of the AD9985A in a  
similar manner. Reading requires two data transfer operations:  
The base address must be written with the R/W bit of the slave  
address byte low to set up a sequential read operation.  
When the serial interface is inactive (SCL and SDA are high),  
communications are initiated by sending a start signal. The start  
signal is a high-to-low transition on SDA while SCL is high.  
This signal alerts all slave devices that a data transfer sequence  
is coming.  
Reading (the R/ bit of the slave address byte high) begins at  
W
the previously established base address. The address of the read  
register auto-increments after each byte is transferred.  
The first eight bits of data transferred after a start signal com-  
To terminate a read/write sequence to the AD9985A, a stop  
signal must be sent. A stop signal comprises a low-to-high  
transition of SDA while SCL is high.  
prise a 7-bit slave address (the first seven bits) and a single R/  
W
bit (the eighth bit). The R/ bit indicates the direction of data  
W
transfer, read from (1) or write to (0) the slave device. If the  
transmitted slave address matches the address of the device (set  
by the state of the SA1-0 input pins in Table 45), the AD9985A  
acknowledges by bringing SDA low on the ninth SCL pulse. If  
the addresses do not match, the AD9985A does not acknowledge.  
A repeated start signal occurs when the master device driving  
the serial interface generates a start signal without first generat-  
ing a stop signal to terminate the current communication. This  
is used to change the mode of communication (read, write)  
between the slave and master without releasing the serial  
interface lines.

SYNC SLICER  
The purpose of the sync slicer is to extract the sync signal from  
the green graphics channel. A sync signal is not present on all  
graphics systems, only those with sync-on-green. The sync  
signal is extracted from the green channel in a two-step process.  
First, the SOG input is clamped to its negative peak (typically,  
0.3 V below the black level). Next, the signal goes to a compara-  
tor with a variable trigger level, nominally 0.15 V above the  
clamped level. The sliced sync is typically a composite sync  
signal containing both Hsync and Vsync.  
The specific value of N varies for different video modes, but is  
always less than 255. For example, with a 1 μs width Hsync, the  
counter only reaches 5 (1 μs/200 ns = 5). Now, when Vsync is  
present on the composite sync, the counter also counts up.  
However, since the Vsync signal is much longer, it counts to a  
higher number M. For most video modes, M is at least 255. So,  
Vsync can be detected on the composite sync signal by  
detecting when the counter counts to a value higher than N.  
The specific count that triggers detection (T) can be  
programmed through the serial register (0x11).  
SYNC SEPARATOR  
Once Vsync has been detected, there is a similar process to  
detect when it goes inactive. At detection, the counter first  
resets to 0, then starts counting up when Vsync goes away.  
Similar to the previous case, it detects the absence of Vsync  
when the counter reaches the threshold count (T). In this way, it  
rejects noise and/or serration pulses. Once Vsync is detected to  
be absent, the counter resets to 0 and begins the cycle again.  
A sync separator extracts the Vsync signal from a composite  
sync signal. It does this through a low-pass filter-like or  
integrator-like operation. It works on the idea that the Vsync  
signal stays active for a much longer time than the Hsync signal,  
so it rejects any signal shorter than a threshold value, which is  
somewhere between an Hsync pulse width and a Vsync pulse  
width.  
The sync separator on the AD9985A is simply an 8-bit digital  
counter with a 5 MHz clock. It works independently of the  
polarity of the composite sync signal. (Polarities are determined  
elsewhere on the chip.) The basic idea is that the counter counts  
up when Hsync pulses are present. But since Hsync pulses are  
relatively short in width, the counter only reaches a value of N  
before the pulse ends. It then starts counting down, eventually  
reaching 0 before the next Hsync pulse arrives.

AD9985A  
The bypass capacitors should be physically located between the  
power plane and the power pin. Current should flow from the  
power plane to the capacitor to the power pin. Do not make the  
power connection between the capacitor and the power pin.  
Placing a via underneath the capacitor pads, down to the power  
plane, is generally the best approach.  
PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS  
The AD9985A is a high precision, high speed analog device.  
Consequently, to get the maximum performance out of the part,  
it is important to have a board with a good layout. This section  
provides guidelines for designing a board using the AD9985A.  
It is particularly important to maintain low noise and good  
stability of PVD (the clock generator supply). Abrupt changes in  
PVD can result in similarly abrupt changes in sampling clock  
phase and frequency. This can be avoided by careful attention to  
regulation, filtering, and bypassing. It is highly desirable to  
provide separate regulated supplies for each of the analog  
circuitry groups (VD and PVD).  
ANALOG INTERFACE INPUTS  
Using the following layout techniques on the graphics inputs is  
extremely important.  
Minimize the trace length running into the graphics inputs.  
This is accomplished by placing the AD9985A as close as  
possible to the graphics VGA connector. Long input trace  
lengths are undesirable because they pick up more noise from  
the board and other external sources.  
Some graphic controllers use substantially different levels of  
power when active (during active picture time) and when idle  
(during horizontal and vertical sync periods). This can result in  
a measurable change in the voltage supplied to the analog  
supply regulator, which can, in turn, produce changes in the  
regulated analog supply voltage. This can be mitigated by  
regulating the analog supply, or at least PVD, from a different,  
cleaner power source (for example, from a 12 V supply).  
Place the 75 Ω termination resistors (see Figure 1) as close as  
possible to the AD9985A chip. Any additional trace length  
between the termination resistors and the input of the  
AD9985A increases the magnitude of reflections, which  
corrupts the graphics signal.  
Use 75 Ω matched impedance traces. Trace impedances other  
than 75 Ω also increase the chance of reflections.  
It is recommended to use a single ground plane for the entire  
board. Experience has repeatedly shown that the noise  
performance is the same or better with a single ground plane.  
Using multiple ground planes can be detrimental because each  
separate ground plane is smaller, and long ground loops can  
result.  
The AD9985A has very high input bandwidth (500 MHz).  
While this is desirable for acquiring a high resolution PC  
graphics signal with fast edges, it means that it also captures any  
high frequency noise present. Therefore, it is important to  
reduce the amount of noise that is coupled to the inputs. Avoid  
running any digital traces near the analog inputs.  
When using separate ground planes is unavoidable, it is  
recommended to minimally place a single ground plane under  
the AD9985A. The location of the split should be at the receiver  
of the digital outputs. For this case, it is even more important to  
place components wisely because the current loops are much  
longer (current takes the path of least resistance). Figure 15  
shows an example of a current loop.  
Due to the high bandwidth of the AD9985A, low-pass filtering  
the analog inputs can sometimes help to reduce noise. (For  
many applications, filtering is unnecessary.) Experiments  
have shown that placing a series ferrite bead prior to the 75 Ω  
termination resistor is helpful in filtering out excess noise.  
Specifically, the part used was the #2508051217Z0 from Fair-  
Rite, but each application can work best with a different bead  
value. Alternately, placing a 100 Ω to 120 Ω resistor between the  
75 Ω termination resistor and the input coupling capacitor can  
also be beneficial.

POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING  
It is recommended to bypass each power supply pin with a  
0.1 μF capacitor. The exception is when two or more supply  
pins are adjacent to each other. For these groupings of powers/  
grounds, it is necessary to have only one bypass capacitor. The  
fundamental idea is to have a bypass capacitor within about  
0.5 cm of each power pin. Also, avoid placing the capacitor on  
the opposite side of the PC board from the AD9985A, as that  
interposes resistive vias in the path.

Place the PLL loop filter components as close to the FILT pin as  
possible.  
Do not place any digital or other high frequency traces near  
these components.  
Use the values suggested in the data sheet with 10% tolerances  
or less.

OUTPUTS (BOTH DATA AND CLOCKS)  
DIGITAL INPUTS  
Try to minimize the trace length that the digital outputs have to  
drive. Longer traces have higher capacitance, which requires  
more current, which causes more internal digital noise. Shorter  
traces reduce the possibility of reflections.  
The digital inputs on the AD9985A were designed to work with  
3.3 V signals, but are tolerant of 5.0 V signals. Therefore, no  
extra components need to be added if using 5.0 V logic.  
Any noise that gets onto the Hsync input trace adds jitter to the  
system. Therefore, minimize the trace length and do not run  
any digital or other high frequency traces near it.  
Adding a series resistor of value 22 Ω to 100 Ω can suppress  
reflections, reduce EMI, and reduce the current spikes inside of  
the AD9985A. However, if 50 Ω traces are used on the PCB, the  
data outputs should not need resistors. A 22 Ω resistor on the  
DATACK output should provide good impedance matching  
that reduces reflections. If series resistors are used, place them  
as close as possible to the AD9985A pins (but try not to add vias  
or extra length to the output trace in order to get the resistors  
closer).  
VOLTAGE REFERENCE  
Bypass the voltage reference with a 0.1 μF capacitor. Place it as  
close as possible to the AD9985A pin. Make the ground  
connection as short as possible.  
If possible, limit the capacitance that each of the digital outputs  
drives to less than 10 pF. This can easily be accomplished by  
keeping traces short and by connecting the outputs to only one  
device. Loading the outputs with excessive capacitance increases  
the current transients inside of the AD9985A, creating more  
digital noise on its power supplies.
