GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AUX
DAC
The AD9961/AD9963 are pin-compatible, 10-/12-bit, low
power MxFE® converters that provide two ADC channels with
sample rates of 100 MSPS and two DAC channels with sample
rates to 170 MSPS. These converters are optimized for transmit
and receive signal paths of communication systems requiring low
power and low cost. The digital interfaces provide flexible
clocking options. The transmit is configurable for 1×, 2×, 4×,
and 8× interpolation. The receive path has a bypassable 2×
decimating low-pass filter.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD9961 and AD9963 have five auxiliary analog channels.
Three are inputs to a 12-bit ADC. Two of these inputs can be
configured as outputs by enabling 10-bit DACs. The other
two channels are dedicated outputs from two independent
12-bit DACs.
1. High Performance with Low Power Consumption.
The DACs operate on a single 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply.
Transmit path power consumption is <100 mW at
170 MSPS. Receive path power consumption is <350 mW
at 100 MSPS from 1.8 V supply. Sleep and power-down
modes are provided for low power idle periods.
The high level of integrated functionality, small size, and low
power dissipation of the AD9961/AD9963 make them well-
suited for portable and low power applications.
2. High Integration.
The dual transmit and dual receive data converters, five
channels of auxiliary data conversion and clock generation
offer complete solutions for many modem designs.
3. Flexible Digital Interface.
The interface mates seamlessly to most digital baseband
processors.

effectively reducing θJA. In addition, metal in direct contact with
the package leads from metal traces, through holes, ground, and
power planes, reduces the θJA.

Data Sheet
TERMINOLOGY
Linearity Error (Integral Nonlinearity or INL)
Linearity error is defined as the maximum deviation of the
actual analog output from the ideal output, determined by a
straight line drawn from zero scale to full scale.
Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
The difference, in decibels, between the peak amplitude of the
output signal and the peak spurious signal between dc and the
frequency equal to half the input data rate.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
DNL is the measure of the variation in analog value, normalized
to full scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input code.
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic com-
ponents to the rms value of the measured fundamental. It is
expressed as a percentage or in decibels.
Monotonicity
A DAC is monotonic if the output either increases or remains
constant as the digital input increases.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured output signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the
Nyquist frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc.
The value for SNR is expressed in decibels.
Offset Error
The deviation of the output current from the ideal of zero is
called offset error. For TXIN, 0 mA output is expected when the
inputs are all 0s. For TXIP, 0 mA output is expected when all
inputs are set to 1.
Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR)
The ratio in dBc between the measured power within a channel
relative to its adjacent channel.
Gain Error
The difference between the actual and ideal output span. The
actual span is determined by the difference between the output
when all inputs are set to 1 and the output when all inputs are
set to 0.
Complex Image Rejection
In a traditional two-part upconversion, two images are created
around the second IF frequency. These images have the effect of
wasting transmitter power and system bandwidth. By placing
the real part of a second complex modulator in series with the
first complex modulator, either the upper or lower frequency
image near the second IF can be rejected.
Output Compliance Range
The range of allowable voltage at the output of a current-output
DAC. Operation beyond the maximum compliance limits can
cause either output stage saturation or breakdown, resulting in
nonlinear performance.
Temperature Drift
Temperature drift is specified as the maximum change from the
ambient (25°C) value to the value at either TMIN or TMAX. For
offset and gain drift, the drift is reported in parts per million of
full-scale range (FSR) per degree Celsius (°C). For reference
drift, the drift is reported in parts per ppm/°C.
Power Supply Rejection
The maximum change in the full-scale output as the supplies
are varied from minimum to maximum specified voltages.
Settling Time
The time required for the output to reach and remain within a
specified error band around its final value, measured from the
start of the output transition.

AD9961/AD9963
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9961/AD9963 are targeted to cover the mixed-signal
front-end needs of multiple wireless communications systems.
They feature a receive path that consists of dual 10-/12-bit
receive ADCs and a transmit path that consists of dual
10-/12-bit transmit DACs (TxDAC). The AD9961/AD9963
integrate additional functionality typically required in most
systems, such as power scalability, Tx gain control, and clock
multiplication circuitry.
In full duplex mode, the AD9961/AD9963 use two 12-bit buses,
along with qualifying clock signals, to transfer Rx path data and
Tx path data. These two buses support either single data rate or
double data rate data transfers. The data bus, along with many
other device options, is configurable through the serial port by
writing internal registers. The device can also be used in a
single-port, half-duplex configuration.
The AD9961/AD9963 minimize both size and power
consumption to address the needs of a range of applications
from the low power portable market to the high performance
femto base station market. The part is provided in a 72-lead
lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP) that has a footprint of
only 10 mm × 10 mm. Power consumption can be optimized to
suit the particular application by incorporating power-down
controls, low power ADC modes, and TxDAC power scaling.

Bytes to Transfer
The AD9961/AD9963 serial control ports are a flexible,
synchronous, serial communications port that allows an easy
interface with many industry-standard microcontrollers and
microprocessors. The AD9961/AD9963 serial control ports are
compatible with most synchronous transfer formats, including
both the Motorola SPI and Intel® SSR® protocols. The serial
control port allows read/write access to all registers that
configure the AD9961/AD9963. Single or multiple byte
transfers are supported, as well as MSB first or LSB first transfer
formats.

The serial control port has three pins, SCLK, SDIO, and
:
Write Transfer
•
SCLK (serial clock) is the input clock used to register serial
control port reads and writes. Write data bits are registered
on the rising edge of this clock, and read data bits are
registered on the falling edge. This pin is internally pulled
down by a 30 kΩ resistor to ground.
If the instruction header indicates a write operation, the bytes
of data written onto the SDIO line are loaded into the serial
control port buffer of the AD9961/AD9963. Data bits are
registered on the rising edge of SCLK.
The length of the transfer (1 byte, 2 byte, 3 bytes, or streaming
mode) is indicated by two bits (N1:N0) in the instruction byte.
During a write, streaming mode does not skip over unused or
reserved registers; therefore, the user must know what bit
pattern to write to the reserved registers to preserve proper
operation of the part. It does not matter what data is written to
unused registers.
•
•
SDIO (serial data input/output) functions as both the
input and output data pin.
CS
(chip select bar) is an active low control that gates the
CS
read and write cycles. When
is high, SDIO is in a high
impedance state and SCLK is disabled. This pin is
internally pulled up by a 30 kΩ resistor to DRVDD.
Read Transfer
GENERAL OPERATION OF SERIAL CONTROL PORT
If the instruction word is for a read operation, the next N × 8
SCLK cycles clock out the data from the address specified in the
instruction word, where N is 1 to 3 as determined by N1:N0.
If N = 4, the read operation is in streaming mode, and
CS
The falling edge of , in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK, determines the start of a communication cycle. There
are two parts to a communication cycle with the AD9961/
AD9963. The first part writes a 16-bit instruction word into the
AD9961/AD9963, coincident with the first 16 SCLK rising
edges. The instruction word provides the AD9961/AD9963
serial control ports with information regarding the data
transfer, which is the second part of the communication cycle.
The instruction word defines whether the upcoming data
transfer is a read or a write, the number of bytes in the data
transfer, and the starting register address for the first byte of the
data transfer.
CS
continues until
is raised. Streaming mode does not skip over
reserved or unused registers. The readback data is valid on the
falling edge of SCLK.
MSB/LSB First Transfers
The AD9961/AD9963 instruction word and byte data formats
can be selected to be MSB first or LSB first. The default for the
AD9961/AD9963 is MSB first. When MSB first mode is active,
the instruction and data bytes must be written from MSB to
LSB. Multibyte data transfers in MSB first format start with an
instruction byte that includes the register address of the most
significant data byte. Subsequent data bytes must follow in
order from the high address to the low address. In MSB first
mode, the serial control port internal address generator
decrements for each data byte of the multibyte transfer cycle.
Instruction Header
W
The MSB of the instruction word is R/ , which indicates
whether the serial port transfer is a read or a write. The next
two bits, N1:N0, indicate the length of the transfer in bytes. The
final 13 bits are the address (A12 to A0) at which to begin the
read or write operation.
When LSB first is active, the instruction and data bytes must be
written from LSB to MSB. Multibyte data transfers in LSB first
format start with an instruction byte that includes the register
address of the least significant data byte followed by multiple data
bytes. The internal byte address generator of the serial control
port increments for each byte of the multibyte transfer cycle.
For a write, the instruction word is followed by the number of
bytes of data indicated by Bit N1 to Bit N0 (see Table 10).

Data Sheet
AD9961/AD9963
When LSB first is set by Register 0x00, Bit 2 and Register 0x00,
Bit 6, it takes effect immediately. In multibyte transfers,
subsequent bytes reflect any changes in the serial port
configuration. To avoid problems reconfiguring the serial port
operation, any data written to 0x00 must be mirrored (the eight
bits should read the same, forward or backward). Mirroring the
data makes it irrelevant whether LSB first or MSB first is in
effect. As an example of this mirroring, the default setting for
Register 0x00 is 00011000.

SUB SERIAL INTERFACE COMMUNICATIONS
The AD9963/AD9961 have two registers that require a different
communication sequence. These registers are 0x0F and 0x10.
The write sequence for these two registers requires a write to
Register 0x05, a write to the Register (0x0F or 0x10), and then a
write to Register 0xFF. The write takes effect when the write to
Register 0xFF is completed.
Ending Transfers
When the transfer is 1, 2, or 3 bytes, the data transfer ends after
CS
the required number of clock cycles have been received.
can
For example, to enable the RXCML pin output buffer, the
register write sequence is:
be raised after each sequence of eight bits to stall the bus (except
after the last byte, where it ends the cycle). When the bus is
1. Write 0x03 into Register 0x05. This addresses both of the
Rx ADCs.
CS
stalled, the serial transfer resumes when
CS
is lowered. Raising
on a non byte boundary resets the serial control port.
2. Write 0x02 into Register 0x0F. This sets the RXCML
enable bit.
The AD9961/AD9963 serial control port register addresses
decrement from the register address just written toward 0x00
for multibyte I/O operations if the MSB first mode is active
(default). If the LSB first mode is active, the register address of
the serial control port increments from the address just written
toward 0xFF for multibyte I/O operations.
3. Write 0x01 into Register 0xFF. This updates the internal
register, which activates the RXCML buffer.
4. Write 0x00 into Register 0x05. This returns the SPI to the
normal addressing mode.
CS
Streaming mode transfers always terminate when
is raised.
An example of updating Register 0x10 is given in the ADC
Digital Offset Adjustment section.
Streaming mode transfers also terminate whenever the address
reaches 0xFF. Note that unused addresses are not skipped
during multibyte I/O operations. To avoid unpredictable device
behavior, do not write to reserved registers.

RXBIAS
RECEIVE PATH
The AD9961/AD9963 provide the user with the option to place
a 10 kꢀ resistor between the RXBIAS pin and ground. This
resistor is used to set the master current reference of the ADC
core. The RXBIAS resistor should have a tolerance of 1% or
better to preserve the accuracy of the ADC full-scale range.
Care should be taken in the layout to avoid any noise from
coupling into the RXBIAS pin.
Rx Path General Description
The AD9961/AD9963 Rx paths consist of dual, differential
input, 100 MSPS ADCs followed by an optional 2× decimation
filter. The Rx path also has digital offset and gain adjustments.

The RXCML pin of the AD9961/AD9963 provides the user with
a buffered version of the expected ADC common-mode bias
voltage. The RXCML output nominally is at 1.4 V. Bypassing
the RXCML output to analog ground maintains the stability of
the output buffer and lowers the noise. To maintain the
accuracy of the RXCML bias voltage, the current draw from the

The dual ADC paths share the same clocking and reference
circuitry to provide optimal matching characteristics. The
ADCs have a multistage differential pipelined switched
capacitor architecture with output error correction logic. The
ADCs support IF sampling frequencies up to 140 MHz, making
them suitable for undersampling receivers. Also, one of the
ADCs can be powered down and the digital interface can be
placed into single ADC mode. This flexibility makes the part
well-suited for sampling real signals as well.

The Rx path analog inputs look into a nominal differential
impedance of 4 kΩ. The Rx inputs are self-biasing, so they can
be either ac-coupled or direct coupled. The nominal dc bias
level of the inputs is 1.4 volts. A buffered version of the bias
voltage is available at the RXCML pin. This voltage can be used
for biasing external buffer circuits when dc coupling is required.

Differential Input Configurations
For optimal dynamic performance, the analog inputs should be
driven differentially. The source impedances driving the Rx
inputs should be matched so that common-mode settling errors
are symmetrical. The Rx inputs can be driven with a single-
ended source, but SNR and SINAD performance is degraded.
Optimum performance is achieved by driving the analog inputs
in a differential input configuration. For baseband applications,
the ADA4937 differential driver provides excellent performance
and a flexible interface to the ADC.
Figure 41 shows an ac-coupled input configuration. The VOCM
pin should be connected to a voltage that provides sufficient
headroom for the output driver of the differential amp. Usually,
setting VOCM to ½ of the amplifier supply voltage is the optimal
setting. Placing source resistance in series with the amplifiers
outputs isolates the amplifier from on-board parasitic capacitances
and leads to more stable operation.
ADC Reference Voltage
An internal differential voltage reference creates positive and
negative reference voltages that define the full-scale input
voltage of the ADCs. This full-scale input voltage range can be
adjusted by means of the RX_FSADJ[4:0] parameter in
configuration Register 0x7D. See the Configuration Registers
section for more details on setting the voltage.
The nominal input voltage range is 1.56 V. In general, a tradeoff
can be made between linearity and SNR. Increasing the input
voltage range leads to higher SNR. Decreasing the input voltage
range leads to better linearity.

At higher input frequencies, the amplifiers required to maintain
the full dynamic power of the AD9963 requires considerable
supply current. For higher frequency power sensitive applications,
differential transformer coupling is the recommended input
configuration. The signal characteristics must be considered
when selecting a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at
frequencies below a few megahertz, and excessive signal power
can also cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.

sample rate by a factor of 2 while rejecting aliases that fall into
the band of interest. These low-pass filters provide >7 dB of
stop-band rejection for 40% of the output data rate. When used
with quadrature signals, the complex output band is 80% of the
quadrature output data rate. A graph of the pass-band response
of the decimation filter is shown in Figure 46.

ADC Digital Offset Adjustment
The Rx paths also have individual digital offsets that can be
applied to the data captured by the ADCs. The offset is a 6-bit
digital value that is added directly to the LSBs of the ADC
output data. The offset values are configured by first addressing
the ADC by setting the appropriate address in Register 0x05,
then writing the desired offset (in LSBs) into Register 0x10. For
example, to set offsets of +6 and −2 to the I and Q channels
respectively, the register write sequence is:
1. Write 0x01 into Register 0x05. This addresses the I channel
ADC.
2. Write 0x06 into Register 0x10. This sets the IADC_Offset
value to +6 LSBs.

greater than 65 dB. The usable bandwidth of the filters is
typically limited by the stop-band attenuation they provide,
rather than the passband flatness. The transfer functions of the

TRANSMIT PATH
Tx Path General Description
The transmit section consists of two complete paths of
interpolation filters stages, each followed by a high speed
current output DAC. A data assembler receives interleaved data
from one of two digital interface ports, and de-interleaves and
buffers the data before supplying the data samples into the two
datapaths. The interpolation filter bank consists of three stages
that can be completely bypassed or cascaded to provide 2×, 4×,
or 8× interpolation. The supported clock rates for each of the
interpolation filters and the transmit DACs are listed in Table 1.

INTERPOLATION FILTERS
The I and Q transmit paths contain three interpolation filters
designated as INT0, INT1, and SRRC. Each of the interpolation
filters provides a 2× increase in output data rate. The filters can
be completely bypassed or cascaded to provide 2×, 4×, or 8×
upsampling ratios. The interpolation filters effectively increase
the DAC update rate while suppressing the images at the input
date rate. This reduces the requirements on the analog output
reconstruction filter.

Data Flow and Clock Generation
The transmit port TXD[11:0] and TXIQ signals are captured
from by the device with an input latch. The data is then
formatted and buffered in an 8-word deep FIFO. The data exits
the FIFO and is processed by whichever interpolation filters are
enabled. The data is then sampled by the transmit DACs.
The FIFO absorbs any phase drift between the two clock
domains that drive the transmit data. The data is read from the
FIFO by the RDCLK signal. The RDCLK signal is always the
DACCLK divided by the interpolation ratio, I. Data is written to
the FIFO by the WRCLK signal at the quadrature data input
rate, fDATA. fDATA is equal to one-half the bus speed because the I
and Q samples are interleaved.
Figure 52 shows the block diagram of the transmit path data
flow in full-duplex mode. Also shown in the diagram are the
input data clocking options and the clock doubler selections.

Figure 53. Simplified Block Diagram of I DAC Core
Figure 53 shows a simplified block diagram of one of the transmit
path DACs. Each DAC consists of a current source array, switch
core, digital control logic, and full-scale output current control.
The DAC contains a current source array capable of providing a
nominal full-scale current (IOUTFS) of 2 mA. The output currents
from the TXIP and TXIN pins are complementary, meaning that
the sum of the two currents always equals the full-scale current of
the DAC. The digital input code to the DAC determines the
effective differential current delivered to the load.
Transmit DAC Transfer Function
The output currents from the TXIP and TXIN pins are
complementary, meaning that the sum of the two currents
always equals the full-scale current of the DAC. The digital
input code to the DAC determines the effective differential
current delivered to the load. TXIP provides maximum output
current when all bits are high. The output currents vs. DACCODE
for the DAC outputs are expressed as:
DACCODE
The DACs are powered through the TXVDD pin and can operate
over a 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply range. To facilitate interfacing the
output of the AD9961/AD9963 directly to a range of common-
mode levels, an internal bias voltage is made available through the
TXCML pin.

There are a number of adjustments that can be made to scale IOUTFS
to provide programmability in the output signal level.
The DAC full-scale output current is regulated by the reference
control amplifier and is determined by the product of a reference
current, a programmable reference resistor, RREF, an internal
programmable resistor, RSET, and a pair of programmable gain
scaling parameters.

Adjusting the output signal level is implemented by scaling the
full-scale output current of the transmit DAC. There are four
separate programmable parameters that can be used to adjust

resistance, and the fine and coarse gain control parameters.

Adjusting the REFIO Voltage
There is a single reference voltage that is used by both the I and
Q channel DACs. The REFIO reference voltage is generated by
an internal 100 µA current source terminated into a programmable
resistor, RREF. The nominal RREF resistance is 10 kΩ resulting in a
1.0 V reference voltage. The resistance can be varied by adjusting
the REFIO_ADJ[5:0] bits in Register 0x6E. This adds or subtracts
up to 20% from the RREF resistance and hence the REFIO voltage
and the DAC full-scale current. A secondary effect to changing
the REFIO voltage is that the full-scale voltage in the auxiliary
DACs also changes by the same magnitude.
Adjusting the Current Scaling Resistor
Each transmit DAC has a resistor that is used to adjust the full-
scale current. The nominal resistance is 16 kΩ, which results in
a full-scale current of 2 mA (when VREFIO equals 1.0 V). The
6-bit programmable values, IRSET[5:0] and QRSET[5:0]
(Register 0x6A and Register 0x6D), provide an output current
adjustment range of 20% as shown in Figure 55.

impact on the REFIO voltage. The coarse scale adjust (GAIN1)
allows the nominal output current to be changed by 6 dB in
approximately 0.25 dB steps. The adjustment range of the fine

Figure 54. Typical VREFIO Voltage vs. REFIO_ADJ Value
The REFIO pin should be decoupled to AGND with a 0.1 µF
capacitor. If the voltage at REFIO is to be used for external
purposes, an external buffer amplifier with an input bias current
of less than 100 nA should be used.
An external reference can be used in applications requiring
tighter gain tolerances or lower temperature drift. Also, a variable
external voltage reference can be used to implement a method
for gain control of the DAC output. The external reference is
applied to the REFIO pin. Note that the 0.1 µF compensation
capacitor is not required. The internal reference can be directly
overdriven by the external reference, or the internal reference
can be powered down. The input impedance of REFIO is 10 kΩ
when powered up and 1 MΩ when powered down.

TRANSMIT DAC OUTPUTS
The optimum noise and distortion performances of the AD9961/
AD9963 are realized when they are configured for differential
operation. The common-mode error sources of the DAC outputs
are significantly reduced by the common-mode rejection of a
transformer or differential amplifier. These common-mode
error sources include even-order distortion products and noise.
The enhancement in distortion performance becomes more
significant as the frequency content of the reconstructed waveform
increases and/or its amplitude increases. This is due to the first-
order cancellation of various dynamic common-mode distortion
mechanisms, digital feedthrough, and noise.

When the TXVDD supply is 1.8 V, the output signal common-

high as 1.25 V.

The following section illustrates some typical output configu-
rations for the AD9961/AD9963 transmit DACs. Unless
otherwise noted, it is assumed that IOUTFS is set to a nominal

performance, a differential output configuration is suggested.
A differential output configuration can consist of either an RF
transformer or a differential op amp configuration. The trans-
former configuration provides the optimum high frequency
performance and is recommended for any application that
allows ac coupling. The differential op amp configuration is
suitable for applications requiring dc coupling, signal gain,
and/or a low output impedance.

Differential Buffered Output Using an Op Amp
A dual op amp (see the circuit shown in Figure 62) can be used
in a differential version of the single-ended buffer shown in
Figure 63. The same R-C network is used to form a one-pole,
differential, low-pass filter to isolate the op amp inputs from
the high frequency images produced by the DAC outputs.
The feedback resistor, RFB, determines the differential peak-
to-peak signal swing by the formula
VOUT = 2 × RFB × IFS
A single-ended output is suitable for applications where low
cost and low power consumption are primary concerns.
The minimum single-ended voltages out of the amplifier are,
respectively,
Differential Coupling Using a Transformer
VMIN = VMAX − RFB × IFS
An RF transformer can be used to perform a differential-to-
single-ended signal conversion, as shown in Figure 61. The
distortion performance of a transformer typically exceeds
that available from standard op amps, particularly at higher
frequencies. Transformer coupling provides excellent rejection
of common-mode distortion (that is, even-order harmonics)
over a wide frequency range. It also provides electrical isolation
and can deliver voltage gain without adding noise. Transformers
with different impedance ratios can also be used for impedance
matching purposes. The main disadvantages of transformer
coupling are low frequency roll-off, lack-of-power gain, and
high output impedance.
The common-mode voltage of the differential output is
determined by the formula

Interfacing to the ADF4602
The ADF4602 is an RF transceiver suitable for Femtocell and
other wireless communications applications. The ADF4602 Tx
baseband inputs have a nominal input common-mode voltage
requirement of 1.2 V. The AD9963 can be dc coupled to the
ADF4602 as shown in Figure 64. When configured for a 2 mA
full-scale current, the output swing of the circuit is 1 V ppd
centered at 1.2 V. The TXMCL pin is biased at 0.5 V to increase
the headroom of the DAC outputs. The TXVDD and CLK33V
supplies must be supplied with 3.3 V to support this output
compliance range from the DACs.
An op amp such as the ADA4899-1 can be used to perform
a single-ended current-to-voltage conversion, as shown in
Figure 63. The AD9961/AD9963 are configured with a pair
of series resistors, RS, off each output. For best distortion
performance, RS should be set to 0 Ω. The feedback resistor, RFB,
determines the peak-to-peak signal swing by the formula

DEVICE CLOCKING
CLOCK DISTRIBUTION
The clock distribution diagram shown in Figure 65 gives an
overview of the clocking options for each of the data converters.
The receive path ADCs and the transmit path DACs can be
clocked directly from the CLKP/CLKN inputs or from the
output of the on-chip DLL. The auxiliary ADC sampling clock
is always a divided down version of the input clock. The
auxiliary DACs are updated synchronously with the serial port
clock and have no relationship with the CLKP/CLKN inputs.
The ADC clock divider and the DLL clock multiplication
supports a variety of ratios between the receive path ADC
sampling clock and the transmit path DAC sampling clock.
Table 21 details the specific values the device supports and
which register bits are require configuration.

The best data converter performance is realized when a low
jitter clock source drives the CLKP/CLKN inputs, and this
signal is used directly (or through the on-chip divider) as the
data converter sampling clocks. The ADC and DAC sampling
clocks are independently selected to be derived from either the
CLKP/CLKN input or from the DLL output, DLLCLK. Using
DLLCLK as the data converter sampling clock signal may
degrade the noise and SFDR performance of the converters.
More information is given in the Clock Multiplication Using the

DRIVING THE CLOCK INPUT
Mini-Circuits®
For optimum performance, the AD9961/AD9963 clock inputs
(CLKP and CLKN) should be clocked with a low jitter, fast rise
time differential signal. This signal should be ac-coupled to the
CLKP and CLKN pins via a transformer or capacitors. The
CLKP/CLKN inputs are internally biased and require no
external bias circuitry. Figure 66 through Figure 69 show
preferred methods for clocking the AD9961/AD9963.

Clock Duty Cycle Considerations
In applications where the receive analog input signals and the
transmit analog output signals are at low frequencies, it is
acceptable to drive the sample clock inputs with a single-ended
CMOS signal. In such applications, CLKP should be driven
directly from a CMOS gate, and the CLKN pin should be bypassed
to ground with a 0.1 μF capacitor in parallel with a 39 kΩ
resistor (see Figure 67). A series termination resistor off the
clock driver output may improve the dynamic response of the
driver.
The duty cycle of the input clock should be maintained between
45% and 55%. Duty cycles outside of this range affects the
dynamic performance of the ADC. This is especially true at
sample rates greater than 75 MHz. It is recommended that the
duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) be used at clock rates above 75 MHz
to ensure the sampling clock maintains the proper duty cycle
inside the device. Below 75 MHz, the DCS should be bypassed.
The DCS is bypassed by setting Register 0x66, Bit 2 high.
DLL Duty Cycle Caution
AD9510/AD9511/
AD9512/AD9513/
AD9514/AD9515/
Stability of the DLL output requires the main clock input to
have a duty cycle of 50% or less. In systems where the duty cycle
is greater than 50%, care should be taken to swap the CLKP and
CLKN pins to reverse this effect.

The AD9961/AD9963 contain a recirculating DLL, as shown in

(REFCLK) to be multiplied by a programmable M/N factor.
This provides a means of generating a wide range of DLL output
clock (DLLCLK) frequencies. The DLLCLK signal can be used
for either the receive ADC sampling clock, the transmit DAC
sampling clock, or both. The EXTDLLCLK signal can be
programmed to appear on the TXCLK pin or TRXCLK if
desired.

The CLK input signal should be stable. The DLL_RESB bit
should be asserted low for a minimum of 25 µs, and then
brought inactive (high) to start the frequency acquisition. The
DLL takes several REFCLK cycles to acquire lock. The
DLL_Locked bit can be queried to verify the DLL is locked.
Figure 70. Functional Block Diagram of Clock Multiplier DLL
The DLL is composed of a ring oscillator made from a
programmable delay line. The ring oscillator output signal is
labeled as MCLK. The MCLK signal is set to oscillate at a
frequency M times greater than the REFCLK signal. The DLL
output clock, DLLCLK, is the MCLK signal divided by a
programmable factor, N. M can be set to values from 1 to 32
and N can be set to values from 1 to 6 and 8.
CONFIGURING THE CLOCK DOUBLERS
The receive and transmit data paths each have a clock doubler
used for clocking data through the device. These clock doublers
are only used in single data rate clocking mode, when there is
no interpolation or decimation being used.
DLL Frequency Locking Range
The DLL frequency lock range is determined by the output
frequency of the ring oscillator, MCLK. The DLL locks over an
MCLK frequency range of 100 MHz to 310 MHz. Verifying that
the DLL is locked can be done by polling the DLL_Locked bit
(Register 0x72, Bit 7).
These doublers should be configured according to the following
guidelines.
Register 0x3A, Register 0x3B, and Register 0x3C configure the
operating points of the doublers and should be initialized with
the following values:
DLL Filter Considerations
0x3A = 0x55, 0x3B = 0x55, 0x3C = 0x00
The DLL requires an external loop filter between the DLLFILT
pin (Pin 54) and ground for stable operation. The circuit
diagram in Figure 71 shows the recommended DLL filter
configuration. The external components should be placed as
close as possible to the device pins. It is important that no noise
be coupled into the filter circuit or DLL output clock jitter
performance is degraded.
The clock doubler mode and pulse widths should be configured
based on the DAC and ADC sample rates. These should be
configured according to Table 22.

both the rising and falling edges of the TRXCLK. Figure 74

In full-duplex mode, the TRX port sources the data from the
AD9961/AD9963 I and Q receive channels. The interface
consists of an output data bus (TRXD[11:0]) that carries the
interleaved I and Q data. The data is accompanied by a

An additional configuration bit, RXCLKPH, is available to
invert the TRXCLK. In this case, the TRX data and the TRXIQ
signals are driven out on the falling edge of TRXCLK and tOD is
measured with respect to the falling edge of TRXCLK.
SINGLE ADC MODE
The receive port can be operated with only one of the ADCs
operational. In this mode the TRXCLK signal can operate in
either bus rate clock mode or double data rate clock mode. The
TRXIQ pin indicates which ADC is active. Figure 75 to Figure 78
show the timing options available.
The analog signals are sampled simultaneously, creating a
quadrature pair of data. This creates two possible data pairing
orders on the output bus, I data followed by Q data, or Q data
followed by I data. There are also two possible ways to align the
bus data with the TRXIQ signal, I data aligned with TRXIQ
being high or I data aligned with TRXIQ being low. The IQ
pairing and data to TRXIQ alignment relationships create four
possible timing modes. The AD9961/AD9963 enable any of
these four modes to be sourced from the device. The data
pairing order is controlled by the RX_IFIRST bit. The phase
relationship between the Rx data and the RXIQ signal is

The AD9961/AD9963 offer a half-duplex mode enabling a
reduced width digital interface. In half-duplex mode, the
transmit and receive ports are multiplexed onto the TRXD,
TRXIQ, and TRXCLK lines. The direction of the bus can be
controlled by either the TXIQ/TXnRX pin (for the rest of this
section referred to as simply the TXnRX pin) or the serial port
configuration registers.
TXD[11:0]
Figure 81. Tx Port Timing Diagram (DDR Clock Mode)
In DDR mode, the TXCLK signal is always an input and must
be supplied along with the data. The setup and hold time
requirements for the Tx port in DDR mode are given Table 24
The operation of the transmit and receive ports in half-duplex
mode is very similar to the way they operate in full-duplex
mode. In half-duplex mode, the interface can be configured to
operate with a single clock pin, or with two clock pins. When in
Rx mode (sourcing data) the TRX port operates the same in
half-duplex mode as it does in full duplex. When in Tx mode,
the TXIQ and TXD[11:0] signals are mapped onto the TRXIQ
and TRXD[11:0] pins respectively. The TXCLK pin is mapped
to the TRXCLK pin in one-clock mode and remains on the
TXCLK pin in two-clock mode. Therefore, in one-clock mode,
the TRXCLK pin carries the RXCLK signal when set in the Rx
direction and the TXCLK signal when set in the Tx direction.
In two-clock mode, the TRX pin carries the RXCLK signal and
the TXCLK pin carries the TXCLK signal regardless of the bus
direction. By default, the clocks sourced by the device are only
present when the corresponding direction of the bus is active.
Setup and hold times for the TRx port are shown in Table 25.

The input samples to the device are assembled to create a
quadrature pair of data. The two possible data pairing orders
and two possible data to TXIQ signal phase relationships create
four possible timing modes. The AD9961/AD9963 can be
configured to accept data in any of these four modes. The data
pairing order is controlled by the TX_IFIRST bit. The data to
TXIQ phase relationship is controlled by the TXIQ_HILO bit.
The two programming options produce the four timing

Analog Inputs
The auxiliary ADC is a 12-bit SAR converter that is accessed
and controlled through the serial port registers (Register 0x77
through Register 0x7B). The ADC voltage reference and clock
signals are generated on chip. The auxiliary ADC is preceded by
a seven-input multiplexer. The ADC inputs can be connected to
either the AUXIN1, AUXIO2, AUXIO3 input pins, or one of
four internal signals as shown in Figure 85.
The ADC can be configured to sample one of eight analog
inputs. The input is selected through the channels select bits

can be calculated from the following equation:

When selected, Input Pin 70, Pin 71, and Pin 72 are connected
to the sampling cap of the auxiliary ADC. Therefore, the
circuits driving these inputs need to recover to the desired
accuracy from having a discharged 10 pF capacitor connected
to it at the initiation of the conversion, within the sampling
window. A programmable delay (Register 0x7B, Bits[1:0]) can
be added to the conversion cycle time to allow additional
settling time of the input. If the ADC input is driven from a low
source impedance, like the output of an op amp, a 20-cycle
conversion time should yield good results. Higher impedance
sources may require the 34-cycle conversion time to fully settle.
Where the conversion cycle time is not an issue, it is

For best performance and lowest power consumption, the
conversion clock speed should be set to the lowest speed that
meets the system conversion time requirements. The maximum
allowable auxiliary ADC clock speed is 10 MHz.
Voltage Reference
The auxiliary ADC has an internal, temperature stable, 2.5 V
reference. This results in an input voltage range of 0 V to 3.2 V.
When using the internal voltage reference, the AUXADCREF
pin should be decoupled to AGND through a 0.22 µF capacitor.
The AUXADCREF pin can be used as a reference output to
external devices, but the current load on the pin should be
limited to sourcing less than 5 mA and sinking less than 100 µA.
recommended that the full 34-cycle conversion time be used.
Conversions where the input multiplexer is switched between
inputs require a longer conversion cycle time than consecutive
conversions from the same multiplexer input.
For systems with tight accuracy requirements, a higher accuracy
external reference can be used to source a voltage into the

Digital Output Coding
It should be noted that after initial power-up or recovery from
power-down, the ADC needs about 100 μS to stabilize. In many
cases, the results of the first conversion should be discarded in
order for the auxiliary ADC to reach an optimum operating
condition.
The digital output coding is straight binary. The ideal transfer
characteristic for the auxiliary ADC is shown in Figure 86.

Auxiliary ADC Conversion Cycle
DAC10_RNG
A conversion is initiated by writing to SPI Register 0x77. The
conversion starts on the first rising edge of the AUXADCCLK
following a write to Register 0x77 (serial port register writes are
completed on the eighth rising edge of SCLK during the data
word write cycle). The conversion takes from 20 to 34
AUXADCCLK cycles to complete depending on the conversion
time setting programmed in Register 0x77. In most cases, the
ADC throughput is a function of both the serial port clock rate
and the ADC conversion time.

Figure 87 shows a typical timing scenario for an auxiliary ADC
conversion period. The scenario shows the write that initiates
the conversion, followed by the read that retrieves the conversion
result. In some cases, it may be required to add a wait time
between the write and read to ensure that the conversion is
complete. The wait time depends on the ADC conversion cycle
time and the speed of the serial port clock. The minimum wait
time is calculated as:
Figure 88. Simplified Circuit Diagram of the 10-Bit Auxiliary DAC
The circuit is most easily analyzed using superposition of two
inputs to the op amp, the 0.5 V reference voltage, and the
programmable current source. The following equation describes

The DACCODE (see Register 0x49 and Register 0x4A for
DAC10A and Register 0x46 and Register 0x47 for DAC10B) is
interpreted such that ISPAN is full scale at 0x000 and zero at 0x3FF.
This leads to an increasing output voltage with increasing code
as shown in Figure 89 and Figure 90. The five selectable gain
setting resistors of 3.2 kΩ, 4.0 kΩ, 5.3 kΩ, 8.0 kΩ, and 16 kΩ
result in full-scale output voltage levels of 3.0 V, 2.5 V, 2.0 V,
1.5 V and 1.0 V respectively. The four selectable full-scale
currents of 31 μA, 62 μA, 93 μA and 124 μA result in voltage
output spans of 0.5 V, 1.0 V, 1.5 V, and 2.0 V, respectively.

POWER SUPPLY CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES
POWER SUPPLIES
There are numerous ways of configuring the power supplies
powering the AD9961/AD9963. Two power supply
configuration examples are shown in Figure 94 and Figure 95.
The AD9961/AD9963 power distributions are shown in Figure 93.
The functional blocks labeled Rx ANLG, Rx ADCs, SPI and
digital core, clocking, and DLL operate from 1.8 V supplies. The
functional blocks labeled Tx DACs, AUX DACs and digital I/O
operate over a supply voltage range from 1.8 V to 3.3 V. The
auxiliary ADC operates from a 3.3 V supply.
Figure 94 shows a 3.3 V only power supply configuration. In
this case, all of the internal circuits that require 1.8 V supplies
are powered from the on-chip regulators. The LDO_EN pin is
set high, and all of the internal LDOs are enabled. The transmit
DAC, auxiliary converters, and I/O pads run from a 3.3 V supply.

Figure 94. 3.3 V Only Supply Configuration
The 1.8 V only blocks can be supplied directly with 1.8 V by
using the RX18V, RX18VF, DLL18V, CLK18V, and DVDD18V
supply pins. In this mode, the on-chip voltage regulators must
be disabled. To provide optimal ESD protection for the device,
the inputs of the LDO regulators should not be left floating.
When unused, the LDO regulator inputs should be tied to one
of the LDO outputs (for example, if RX33V is unused, tie
RX33V to either RX18V or RX18VF).
Figure 95 shows a power supply configuration where all 1.8 V
voltage rails are powered by external supplies. The LDO_EN
pin is grounded, and all of the internal LDOs are disabled. The
transmit DAC, auxiliary converters and I/O pads run from a
3.3 V supply.
AD9961/AD9963
When the LDO regulators are used, the RX18V, RX18VF,
DLL18V, CLK18V, and DVDD18V pins should be decoupled to
ground with a 0.1 μF or larger capacitor. The LDO inputs can
operate over a range from 2.5 V to 3.3 V.
The LDO_EN pin (Pin 14) is a three-state input pin that
controls the operation of the LDOs. When LDO_EN is high, all
of the LDOs are enabled. When LDO_EN is low, all of the
LDOs are disabled. When LDO_EN is floating or approximately
DRVDD/2, only the DVDD18V LDO is enabled. All of the
LDOs except the DVDD18V LDO can be independently
disabled through serial port control as well by writing to
Register 0x61.

Figure 95. 3.3 V and 1.8 V Supply Configuration
POWER DISSIPATION
The AD9961/AD9963 power dissipation is highly dependent on
operating conditions. Table 30 and Figure 96 to Figure 103 show
the typical current consumption by power supply domain under
different operating conditions.
The three DRVDD pins are internally connected together,
therefore, these pins must be connected to the same voltage.
The voltage applied to these pins affects the timing of the device
as noted in the Digital Interfaces section.
The current draw from the 1.8 V supplies are independent of
whether they are supplied by the on-chip regulators or by an
external 1.8 V supply. The quiescent current of the LDO regulators
are about 100 μA.
The TXVDD and AUX33V supplies can operate over a range
from 1.8 V to 3.3 V. It should be noted that the auxiliary ADC
requires AUX33V to be 3.3 V for operation. The performance
of the Tx DACs vary with the TXVDD supply as indicated in
the Table 1 and Figure 4 to Figure 11.
The current drawn from the AUX33V supply by the auxiliary ADC
is typically 350 μA. The 10-bit auxiliary DACs each typically draw
275 μA from the AUX33V supply. The 12-bit auxiliary DACs
typically draw 550 μA each from the AUX33V supply.

EXAMPLE START-UP SEQUENCES
When operating below 75 MHz, bypass the duty cycle stabilizer
in the ADCCLK generator circuit and take care to ensure a duty
cycle 45% to 55% of the CLKP/CLKN clock input. The series
of writes in Table 32 configures the Rx clock doubler to clock
the ADCs from reset. These writes are for an ADC clock of
< 75 MHz.
CONFIGURING THE DLL
The AD9963 DLL is shown in Figure 65, the clock distribution
diagram. The register writes in Table 31 configures the DLL
to drive the DACs with a multiplication in frequency of 10
and a division of 3 from the main CLKP/CLKN input. From
the default register settings at reset, this would take a 20 MHz
CLKP/CLKN clock, multiply it up to 200 MHz, then divide
the clock down by 3 to produce 66.67 MHz. The write to
Register 0x71 configures the DAC clock to be sourced from
the DLL. By default, the Rx and Tx data buses operate in SDR
mode. Each DAC is clocked at 66.67 MHz and the TxCLK pin
outputs 133.33 MHz.
This same sequence could be used for setting up a clock
>75 MHz by removing the write to Register 0x66.

CONFIGURING THE CLOCK DOUBLERS (DDLL)
Comments
The AD9963 includes two clock doublers. The Rx clock
doubler, if enabled, doubles the frequency of the CLKP/CLKN
signal on its way into the circuit that generates ADCCLK
(Figure 65). The Tx clock doubler doubles the DACCLK signal
and can be selected to be included in the TxCLK generator
circuit (Figure 52). Use of both clock doublers is recommended
when the ADCs and DACs are operated above 15 MHz.
