GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9634 is a 12-bit, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with
sampling speeds of up to 250 MSPS. The AD9634 is designed to
support communications applications where low cost, small size,
wide bandwidth, and versatility are desired.
The ADC core features a multistage, differential pipelined
architecture with integrated output error correction logic. The
ADC features wide bandwidth inputs that can support a variety
of user-selectable input ranges. An integrated voltage reference
eases design considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) is
provided to compensate for variations in the ADC clock duty cycle,
allowing the converter to maintain excellent performance.
The ADC output data are routed directly to the external 12-bit
LVDS output port.
Flexible power-down options allow significant power savings,
when desired.
Programming for setup and control is accomplished using a
3-wire, SPI-compatible serial interface.
The AD9634 is available in a 32-lead LFCSP and is specified over
the industrial temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. This product
is protected by a U.S. patent.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Integrated 12-bit, 170 MSPS/210 MSPS/250 MSPS ADC.
2. Fast overrange and threshold detect.
3. Proprietary differential input maintains excellent SNR
performance for input frequencies of up to 350 MHz.
4. 3-pin, 1.8 V SPI port for register programming and readback.
5. Pin compatibility with the AD9642, allowing a simple
migration up to 14 bits, and with the AD6672.

section of this specification is not implied. Operation beyond
the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.
THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS
The exposed paddle must be soldered to the ground plane for the
LFCSP package. Soldering the exposed paddle to the customer
board increases the reliability of the solder joints, maximizing
the thermal capability of the package.

Typical θJA is specified for a 4-layer PCB with solid ground plane.
As shown in Table 7, airflow increases heat dissipation, which
reduces θJA. In addition, metal in direct contact with the package
leads from metal traces, through holes, ground, and power
planes reduces the θJA.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9634 can sample any fS/2 frequency segment from dc to
250 MHz using appropriate low-pass or band-pass filtering at
the ADC inputs with little loss in ADC performance.
Programming and control of the AD9634 are accomplished
using a 3-pin, SPI-compatible serial interface.
ADC ARCHITECTURE
The AD9634 architecture consists of a front-end sample-and-
hold circuit, followed by a pipelined, switched-capacitor ADC.
The quantized outputs from each stage are combined into a
final 12-bit result in the digital correction logic. The pipelined
architecture permits the first stage to operate on a new input
sample and the remaining stages to operate on the preceding
samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of the clock.
Each stage of the pipeline, excluding the last, consists of a low
resolution flash ADC connected to a switched-capacitor digital-
to-analog converter (DAC) and an interstage residue amplifier
(MDAC). The MDAC magnifies the difference between the
reconstructed DAC output and the flash input for the next stage
in the pipeline. One bit of redundancy is used in each stage to
facilitate digital correction of flash errors. The last stage simply
consists of a flash ADC.
The input stage contains a differential sampling circuit that can
be ac- or dc-coupled in differential or single-ended modes. The
output staging block aligns the data, corrects errors, and passes the
data to the output buffers. The output buffers are powered from a
separate supply, allowing digital output noise to be separated from
the analog core. During power-down, the output buffers go into
a high impedance state.
ANALOG INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
The analog input to the AD9634 is a differential switched-capacitor
circuit that has been designed to attain optimum performance
when processing a differential input signal.
The clock signal alternatively switches the input between sample
mode and hold mode (see the configuration shown in Figure 46).
When the input is switched into sample mode, the signal source
must be capable of charging the sampling capacitors and settling
within ½ clock cycle.
A small resistor in series with each input can help reduce the
peak transient current required from the output stage of the
driving source. A shunt capacitor can be placed across the
inputs to provide dynamic charging currents. This passive
network creates a low-pass filter at the ADC input; therefore,
the precise values are dependent on the application.
In intermediate frequency (IF) undersampling applications, reduce
the shunt capacitors. In combination with the driving source
impedance, the shunt capacitors limit the input bandwidth.
Refer to the AN-742 Application Note, Frequency Domain
Response of Switched-Capacitor ADCs; the AN-827 Application
Note, A Resonant Approach to Interfacing Amplifiers to Switched-
Capacitor ADCs; and the Analog Dialogue article, “Transformer-
Coupled Front-End for Wideband A/D Converters” for more

Input Common Mode
The analog inputs of the AD9634 are not internally dc biased. In
ac-coupled applications, the user must provide this bias externally.
Setting the device so that VCM = 0.5 × AVDD (or 0.9 V) is
recommended for optimum performance. An on-board common-
mode voltage reference is included in the design and is available
from the VCM pin. Using the VCM output to set the input
common mode is recommended. Optimum performance is
achieved when the common-mode voltage of the analog input
is set by the VCM pin voltage (typically 0.5 × AVDD). The
VCM pin must be decoupled to ground by a 0.1 µF capacitor,
as described in the Applications Information section. Place this
decoupling capacitor close to the pin to minimize the series
resistance and inductance between the part and this capacitor.

Differential Input Configurations
Optimum performance can be achieved when driving the
AD9634 in a differential input configuration. For baseband
applications, the AD8138, ADA4937-1, and ADA4930-1
differential drivers provide excellent performance and a flexible
interface to the ADC.
The output common-mode voltage of the ADA4930-1 is easily
set with the VCM pin of the AD9634 (see Figure 47), and the
driver can be configured in a Sallen-Key filter topology to
provide band limiting of the input signal.

Figure 48. Differential Transformer-Coupled Configuration
The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few megahertz. Excessive signal power can also cause
core saturation, which leads to distortion.
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve
the true SNR performance of the AD9634. For applications where
SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun coupling is
the recommended input configuration (see Figure 49). In this
configuration, the input is ac-coupled and the VCM voltage is
provided to each input through a 33 Ω resistor. These resistors
compensate for losses in the input baluns to provide a 50 Ω
impedance to the driver.
In the double balun and transformer configurations, the value
of the input capacitors and resistors is dependent on the input
frequency and source impedance. Based on these parameters
the value of the input resistors and capacitors may need to be
adjusted, or some components may need to be removed. Table 9
displays recommended values to set the RC network for different
input frequency ranges. However, these values are dependent on
the input signal and bandwidth and should be used only as a
starting guide. Note that the values given in Table 9 are for the
R1, R2, R3, C1, and C2 components shown in Figure 49.

Figure 50. Differential Input Configuration Using the AD8375
An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at
frequencies in the second Nyquist zone is to use an amplifier
with variable gain. The AD8375 digital variable gain amplifier
(DVGA) provides good performance for driving the AD9634.
Figure 50 shows an example of the AD8375 driving the AD9634
through a band-pass antialiasing filter.
VOLTAGE REFERENCE
A stable and accurate voltage reference is built into the AD9634.
The full-scale input range can be adjusted by varying the reference
voltage via SPI. The input span of the ADC tracks reference
voltage changes linearly.
CLOCK INPUT CONSIDERATIONS
For optimum performance, the AD9634 sample clock inputs,
CLK+ and CLK−, should be clocked with a differential signal.
The signal is typically ac-coupled into the CLK+ and CLK− pins by
means of a transformer or a passive component configuration.
These pins are biased internally (see Figure 51) and require no
external bias. If the inputs are floated, the CLK− pin is pulled low
to prevent spurious clocking.

Clock Input Options
The AD9634 has a very flexible clock input structure. Clock input
can be a CMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, or sine wave signal. Regardless
of the type of signal being used, clock source jitter is of the most
concern, as described in the Jitter Considerations section.
Figure 52 and Figure 53 show two preferable methods for clocking
the AD9634 (at clock rates of up to 625 MHz). A low jitter clock
source is converted from a single-ended signal to a differential
signal using an RF balun or RF transformer.
The RF balun configuration is recommended for clock frequencies
between 125 MHz and 625 MHz, and the RF transformer is
recommended for clock frequencies from 10 MHz to 200 MHz.
The back-to-back Schottky diodes across the secondary windings
of the transformer limit clock excursions into the AD9634 to
approximately 0.8 V p-p differential. This limit helps prevent the
large voltage swings of the clock from feeding through to other
portions of the AD9634, while preserving the fast rise and fall times
of the signal, which are critical for low jitter performance.

Input Clock Divider
The AD9634 contains an input clock divider with the ability to
divide the input clock by integer values between 1 and 8. For
divide ratios other than 1, the DCS is enabled by default on
power-up.
Clock Duty Cycle
Typical high speed ADCs use both clock edges to generate a
variety of internal timing signals and, as a result, may be sensitive to
clock duty cycle. Commonly, a ±5% tolerance is required on the
clock duty cycle to maintain dynamic performance characteristics.
The AD9634 contains a DCS that retimes the nonsampling
(falling) edge, providing an internal clock signal with a nominal
50% duty cycle. This allows the user to provide a wide range of
clock input duty cycles without affecting the performance of the
AD9634.
Jitter on the rising edge of the input clock is still of paramount
concern and is not reduced by the duty cycle stabilizer. The duty
cycle control loop does not function for clock rates less than
40 MHz nominally. The loop has a time constant associated
with it that must be considered when the clock rate may change
dynamically. A wait time of 1.5 μs to 5 μs is required after a
dynamic clock frequency increase or decrease before the DCS loop
is relocked to the input signal. During the time that the loop is
not locked, the DCS loop is bypassed, and internal device timing
is dependent on the duty cycle of the input clock signal. In such
applications, it may be appropriate to disable the duty cycle
stabilizer. In all other applications, enabling the DCS circuit is
recommended to maximize ac performance.
Jitter Considerations
High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality
of the clock input. The degradation in SNR at a given input
frequency (fIN) due to jitter (tJ) can be calculated by
SNRHF = −10 log[(2π × fIN × tJRMS)2 + 10 )10/( LF
SNR]
In the equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the root-
mean-square of all jitter sources, which include the clock input,
the analog input signal, and the ADC aperture jitter specification.
IF undersampling applications are particularly sensitive to jitter,
as shown in Figure 56.

Figure 56. AD9634-250 SNR vs. Input Frequency and Jitter
In cases where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the
AD9634, treat the clock input as an analog signal. In addition,
use separate power supplies for the clock drivers and the ADC
output driver to avoid modulating the clock signal with digital
noise. Low jitter, crystal controlled oscillators provide the best clock
sources. If the clock is generated from another type of source (by
gating, dividing, or another method), it should be retimed by the
original clock during the last step.
Refer to AN-501 Application Note, Aperture Uncertainty and ADC
System Performance, and AN-756 Application Note, Sampled
Systems and the Effects of Clock Phase Noise and Jitter, for more
information about jitter performance as it relates to ADCs.

Figure 57. AD9634-250 Power and Current vs. Sample Rate
By setting the internal power-down mode bits (Bits[1:0]) in the
power modes register (Address 0x08) to 01, the AD9634 is placed
in power-down mode. In this state, the ADC typically dissipates
5 mW. During power-down, the output drivers are placed in a
high impedance state.
Low power dissipation in power-down mode is achieved by
shutting down the reference, reference buffer, biasing networks,
and clock. Internal capacitors are discharged when entering power-
down mode and then must be recharged when returning to
normal operation. As a result, wake-up time is related to the
time spent in power-down mode, and shorter power-down
cycles result in proportionally shorter wake-up times.
When using the SPI port interface, the user can place the ADC
in power-down mode or standby mode. Standby mode allows
the user to keep the internal reference circuitry powered when
faster wake-up times are required. To put the part into standby
mode, set the internal power-down mode bits (Bits[1:0]) in the
power modes register (Address 0x08) to 10. See the Memory
Map section and AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High
Speed ADCs via SPI for additional details.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS
The AD9634 output drivers can be configured for either ANSI
LVDS or reduced swing LVDS using a 1.8 V DRVDD supply.
As detailed in the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High
Speed ADCs via SPI, the data format can be selected for offset
binary, twos complement, or gray code when using the SPI
control.
Digital Output Enable Function (OEB)
The AD9634 has a flexible three-state ability for the digital output
pins. The three-state mode is enabled using the SPI interface.
The data outputs can be three-stated by using the output enable
bar bit (Bit 4) in Register 0x14. This OEB function is not intended
for rapid access to the data bus.
Timing
The AD9634 provides latched data with a pipeline delay of 10 input
sample clock cycles. Data outputs are available one propagation
delay (tPD) after the rising edge of the clock signal.
Minimize the length of the output data lines as well as the loads
placed on these lines to reduce transients within the AD9634.
These transients may degrade converter dynamic performance.
The lowest typical conversion rate of the AD9634 is 40 MSPS. At
clock rates below 40 MSPS, dynamic performance can degrade.
Data Clock Output (DCO)
The AD9634 also provides the data clock output (DCO) intended
for capturing the data in an external register. Figure 2 shows
timing diagram of the AD9634 output modes.
ADC OVERRANGE (OR)
The ADC overrange indicator is asserted when an overrange is
detected on the input of the ADC. The overrange condition is
determined at the output of the ADC pipeline and, therefore, is
subject to a latency of 10 ADC clock cycles. An overrange at the
input is indicated by this bit 10 clock cycles after it occurs.

Table 11. Serial Port Interface Pins
AD9634 Data Sheet
SERIAL PORT INTERFACE (SPI)
The AD9634 serial port interface (SPI) allows the user to configure
the converter for specific functions or operations through a
structured register space provided inside the ADC. The SPI offers
added flexibility and customization, depending on the application.
Addresses are accessed via the serial port and can be written to
or read from via the port. Memory is organized into bytes that can
be further divided into fields. These fields are documented in the
Memory Map section. For detailed operational information, see
the AN-877 Application Note, Interfacing to High Speed ADCs
via SPI.
CONFIGURATION USING THE SPI
Three pins define the SPI of this ADC: the SCLK pin, the SDIO
pin, and the CSB pin (see Table 11). The SCLK (serial clock) pin
is used to synchronize the read and write data presented from
and to the ADC. The SDIO (serial data input/output) pin is a
dual-purpose pin that allows data to be sent and read from the
internal ADC memory map registers. The CSB (chip select bar)
pin is an active-low control that enables or disables the read and
write cycles.
Table 11. Serial Port Interface Pins
Pin
Function
SCLK Serial clock. The serial shift clock input, which is used to
synchronize serial interface reads and writes.
SDIO
Serial data input/output. A dual-purpose pin that
typically serves as an input or an output, depending on
the instruction being sent and the relative position in the
timing frame.
CSB Chip select bar. An active-low control that gates the read
and write cycles.
The falling edge of CSB, in conjunction with the rising edge of
SCLK, determines the start of the framing. An example of the serial
timing and its definitions can be found in Figure 58 and Table 5.
Other modes involving the CSB are available. The CSB can be
held low indefinitely, which permanently enables the device;
this is called streaming. The CSB can stall high between bytes to
allow for additional external timing. When CSB is tied high, SPI
functions are placed in a high impedance mode. This mode turns
on any SPI pin secondary functions.
During an instruction phase, a 16-bit instruction is transmitted.
Data follows the instruction phase, and its length is determined
by the W0 and W1 bits.
All data is composed of 8-bit words. The first bit of each individual
byte of serial data indicates whether a read or write command is
issued. This allows the serial data input/output (SDIO) pin to
change direction from an input to an output.
In addition to word length, the instruction phase determines
whether the serial frame is a read or write operation, allowing
the serial port to be used both to program the chip and to read
the contents of the on-chip memory. If the instruction is a readback
operation, performing a readback causes the serial data input/
output (SDIO) pin to change direction from an input to an output
at the appropriate point in the serial frame.
Data can be sent in MSB-first mode or in LSB-first mode. MSB-
first mode is the default on power-up and can be changed via
the SPI port configuration register. For more information about
this and other features, see the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI.
HARDWARE INTERFACE
The pins described in Table 11 comprise the physical interface
between the user programming device and the serial port of the
AD9634. The SCLK pin and the CSB pin function as inputs when
using the SPI interface. The SDIO pin is bidirectional, functioning
as an input during write phases and as an output during readback.
The SPI interface is flexible enough to be controlled by either
FPGAs or microcontrollers. One method for SPI configuration
is described in detail in the AN-812 Application Note,
Microcontroller-Based Serial Port Interface (SPI) Boot Circuit.
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK signal, the CSB signal, and the SDIO signal are typically
asynchronous to the ADC clock, noise from these signals can
degrade converter performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for
other devices, it may be necessary to provide buffers between
this bus and the AD9634 to prevent these signals from transi-
tioning at the converter inputs during critical sampling periods.

MEMORY MAP
READING THE MEMORY MAP REGISTER TABLE
Each row in the memory map register table has eight bit
locations. The memory map is roughly divided into three
sections: the chip configuration registers (Address 0x00 to
Address 0x02), the transfer register (Address 0xFF), and the
ADC functions registers (Address 0x08 to Address 0x20),
including setup, control, and test.
The memory map register table (Table 13) documents the
default hexadecimal value for each hexadecimal address shown.
The Bit 7 (MSB) column is the start of the default hexadecimal
value given. For example, Address 0x14, the output mode register,
has a hexadecimal default value of 0x01. This means that Bit 0 = 1
and the remaining bits are 0s. This setting is the default output
format value, which is twos complement. For more information
on this function and others, see the AN-877 Application Note,
Interfacing to High Speed ADCs via SPI. This document details
the functions controlled by Register 0x00 to Register 0x20.
Open Locations
All address and bit locations that are not included in Table 13
are not currently supported for this device. Write 0s to unused
bits of a valid address location. Writing to these locations is
required only when part of an address location is open (for
example, Address 0x18). If the entire address location is open
(for example, Address 0x13), do not write to this address location.
Default Values
After the AD9634 is reset, critical registers are loaded with
default values. The default values for the registers are given in
the memory map register table (see Table 13).
Logic Levels
An explanation of logic level terminology follows:
“Bit is set” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 1” or
“writing Logic 1 for the bit.
Clear a bit” is synonymous with “bit is set to Logic 0” or
“writing Logic 0 for the bit.
Transfer Register Map
Address 0x08 to Address 0x20 are shadowed. Writes to these
addresses do not affect part operation until a transfer command is
issued by writing 0x01 to Address 0xFF, setting the transfer bit. This
allows these registers to be updated internally and simultaneously
when the transfer bit is set. The internal update takes place
when the transfer bit is set, and then the bit autoclears.

Data Sheet AD9634
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DESIGN GUIDELINES
Before starting system-level design and layout of the AD9634, it
is recommended that the designer become familiar with these
guidelines, which describe the special circuit connections and
layout requirements needed for certain pins.
Power and Ground Recommendations
When connecting power to the AD9634, it is recommended that
two separate 1.8 V supplies be used: use one supply for analog
(AVDD) and a separate supply for digital outputs (DRVDD).
The designer can employ several different decoupling capacitors
to cover both high and low frequencies. Locate these capacitors
close to the point of entry at the PC board level and close to the
pins of the part with minimal trace length.
A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the
AD9634. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the
PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance
can be easily achieved.
Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations
It is mandatory that the exposed paddle on the underside of the
ADC be connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the
best electrical and thermal performance. A continuous, exposed
(no solder mask) copper plane on the PCB should be connected
to the AD9634 exposed paddle, Pin 0.
The copper plane should have several vias to achieve the lowest
possible resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to flow through
the bottom of the PCB. These vias should be filled or plugged with
nonconductive epoxy.
To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and
the PCB, overlay a silkscreen to partition the continuous plane on
the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie
points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow process.
Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees only one
tie point between the ADC and the PCB. See the evaluation
board for a PCB layout example. For detailed information about
the packaging and PCB layout of chip scale packages, refer to
the AN-772 Application Note, A Design and Manufacturing
Guide for the Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP).
VCM
Decouple the VCM pin to ground with a 0.1 µF capacitor, as
shown in Figure 48.
SPI Port
The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full
dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the
SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the
ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter
performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices,
it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the
AD9634 to keep these signals from transitioning at the converter
input pins during critical sampling periods.
