Digital Quadrature Tuner
The Digital Quadrature Tuner (DQT) provides many of the
functions required for digital demodulation. These functions
include carrier LO generation and mixing, baseband
sampling, programmable bandwidth filtering, baseband AGC,
and IF AGC error detection. Serial control inputs are provided
which can be used to interface with external symbol and
carrier tracking loops. These elements make the DQT ideal
for demodulator applications with multiple operational modes
or data rates. The DQT may be used with HSP50210 Digital
Costas Loop to function as a demodulator for BPSK, QPSK,
8-PSK OQPSK, FSK, FM, and AM signals.
The DQT processes a real or complex input digitized at rates
up to 52 MSPS. The channel of interest is shifted to DC by a
complex multiplication with the internal LO. The quadrature
LO is generated by a numerically controlled oscillator (NCO)
with a tuning resolution of 0.012Hz at a 52MHz sample rate.
The output of the complex multiplier is gain corrected and fed
into identical low pass FIR filters. Each filter is comprised of a
decimating low pass filter followed by an optional
compensation filter. The decimating low pass filter is a 3
stage Cascaded-Integrator-Comb (CIC) filter. The CIC filter
can be configured as an integrate and dump filter or a third
order CIC filter with a (sin(X)/X)3 response. Compensation
filters are provided to flatten the (sin(X)/X)N response of the
CIC. If none of the filtering options are desired, they may be
bypassed. The filter bandwidth is set by the decimation rate of
the CIC filter. The decimation rate may be fixed or adjusted
dynamically by a symbol tracking loop to synchronize the
output samples to symbol boundaries. The decimation rate
may range from 1-4096. An internal AGC loop is provided to
maintain the output magnitude at a desired level. Also, an
input level detector can be used to supply error signal for an
external IF AGC loop closed around the A/D.
The DQT output is provided in either serial or parallel f ormats
to support interfacing with a variety DSP processors or digital
filter components. This device is configurab le o ver a general
purpose 8-bit parallel bidirectional microprocessor control bus .

(see Serial Interface Section). The new offset frequency is shifted in MSB first by CLK starting with the clock cycle after
assertion of SOFSYNC.

data word (see Serial Interface Section).

sertion of the DATARDY pin. Data may be output parallel or serial mode (see Output Formatter Section). In the parallel
mode, IOUT9 is the MSB. When the serial mode is used, IOUT0 is data, and IOUT9 is the serial clock. Other pins not
used in serial mode may be set high or low via the control interface.
QOUT9-0 O Quadrature Output. The data on these pins is output synchronous to CLK. New data on the QOUT(9-0) pins is indicated
by the DATARDY pin. Data may be output parallel or serial mode. In the parallel mode, IOUT9 is the MSB. When the
serial mode is used, QOUT0 is data.

busses (see Output Formatter Section). This pin may be active ‘high’ or ‘low’ depending on the configuration of the I/O

on the median value on the input.

Functional Description
The Digital Quadrature Tuner (DQT) provides many of the
functions needed for digital demodulation including: carrier
LO generation, mixing, low-pass filtering, baseband
sampling, baseband AGC, and IF AGC error detection. A
block diagram of the DQT is provided in Figure 1. The DQT
processes a real or complex input at rates up to 52 MSPS.
The digitized IF is input to the Synthesizer/Mixer where it is
multiplied by a quadrature LO of user programmable
frequency. This operation tunes the channel of interest to DC
where it is extracted by the Low Pass FIR Filtering section.
The filter bandwidth is set through a user programmable
decimation factor. The decimation factor is set by the Re-
Sampler which controls the baseband sampling rate. The
baseband sample rate can be adjusted by an external
symbol tracking loop via a serial interface. Similarly, a serial
interface is provided which allows the frequency of the
Synthesizer/Mixer’s NCO to be controlled by an external
carrier tracking loop. The serial interfaces were designed to
mate with the output of loop filters on the HSP50210 Digital
Costas Loop.
The DQT provides an input level detector and an internal
AGC to help maintain the input and output signal
magnitudes at user specified levels. The input level detector
compares the input signal magnitude to a programmable
level and generates an error signal. The error signal can be
externally averaged to set the gain of an amplifier in front of
the A/D which closes the AGC loop. The output signal level
is maintained by an internal AGC loop closed around the
Low Pass Filtering. The AGC loop gain and gain limits are
programmable.
Input Controller
The input controller sets the input sample rate of the
processing elements. The controller has two operational
modes which include a Gated Input Mode for processing
sample rates slower than CLK, and an Interpolated Input
Mode for increasing the effective time resolution of the
samples. The mode is selected by setting bit 1 of the I/O
Formatting Control Register in Table 9.
In Gated Input Mode, the Input Enable (ENI) controls the
data flow into the input pipeline and the processing of the
internal elements. When this input is sampled “low” by CLK,
the data on IIN0-9 and QIN0-9 is clocked into the processing
pipeline; when ENI is sampled “high”, the data inputs are
disabled. The Input Enable is pipelined to the internal
processing elements so that they are enabled once for each
time ENI is sampled low. This mode minimizes the

processing pipeline latency, and the latency of the part’s
serial interfaces while conserving power. Note: the
effective input sample rate to the internal processing
elements is equal to the frequency with which ENI is
asserted “low”.
In Interpolated Input Mode, the ENI input is used to insert
zeroes between the input data samples. This process
increases the input sample rate to the processing elements
which improves the time resolution of the processing chain.
When ENI is sampled “high” by CLK, a zero is input into the
processing pipeline. When ENI is sampled “low” the input
data is fed into the pipeline. Note: Due to the nature of the
rate change operation, consideration must be given to
the scaling and interpolation filtering required for a
particular rate change factor.
In either the Gated or Interpolated Input Mode, the
Synthesizer NCO is gated by the ENI input. This only allows
clocking of the NCO when external samples are input to the
processing pipeline. As a result, the NCO frequency must be
set relative to the input sample rate, not the CLK rate (see
Synthesizer/Mixer Section). NOTE: Only fixed
interpolation rates should be used when operating the
part in Interpolated Mode at the Input Controller.
Input Level Detector
The Input Level Detector generates a one-bit error signal for
an external IF AGC filter and amp. The error signal is
generated by comparing the magnitude of the input samples
to a user programmable threshold. The HI/LO pin is then
driven “high” or “low” depending the relationship of its
magnitude to the threshold. The sense of the HI/LO pin is
programmable so that a magnitude exceeding the threshold
can either be represented as a “high” or “low” logic state.
The threshold and the sense of the HI/LO pin are configured
by loading the appropriate control registers via the
Microprocessor Interface (see Tables 7 and 11).
The high/low outputs can be integrated by an external loop
filter to close an AGC loop. Using this method the gain of the
loop forces the median magnitude of the input samples to
the threshold. When the magnitude of half the samples are
above the threshold and half are below, the error signal is
integrated to zero by the loop filter.
The algorithm for determining the magnitude of the complex
input is given by:
Mag(I,Q) = |I| + .375 x |Q| if |I| > |Q| (EQ. 1)
or:
Mag(I,Q) = |Q| + .375 x |I| if |Q| > |I|, (EQ. 2)
Using this algorithm, the magnitude of complex inputs can
be estimated with an error of <0.55dB or approximately
6.5%. For real inputs, the magnitude detector reduces to a
an absolute value detector with negligible error.
Note: an external AGC loop using the Input Level
Detector may go unstable for a real sine wave input
whose frequency is exactly one quarter of the sample
rate (FS/4). The Level Detector responds to such an
input by producing a square wave output with a 50%
duty cycle for a wide range of thresholds. This square
wave integrates to zero, indicating no error for a range
of input signal amplitudes.
Synthesizer/Mixer
The Synthesizer/Mixer spectrally shifts the input signal of
interest to DC for subsequent baseband filtering. This
function is performed by using a complex multiplier to
multiply the input with the output of a quadrature numerically
controlled oscillator (NCO). The multiplier operation is:
IOUT = IIN x cos (ωc) - QIN x sin (ωc) (EQ. 3)
QOUT = IIN x sin (ωc) + QIN x cos (ωc) (EQ. 4)
The complex multiplier output is rounded to 12 bits. For real
inputs this operation is similar to that performed by a
quadrature downconverter. For complex inputs, the
Synthesizer/Mixer functions as a single-sideband or image
reject mixer which shifts the frequency of the complex
samples without generating images.
The quadrature outputs of the NCO are generated by driving
a sine/cosine lookup table with the output of a phase
accumulator as shown in Figure 2. Each time the phase
accumulator is clocked, its sum is incremented by the sum of

the contents of the Carrier Frequency (CF) Register and the
Carrier Offset Frequency (COF) Register. As the
accumulator sum transitions from 0 to 232, the SIN/COS
ROM produces quadrature outputs whose phase advances
from 0o to 360o. The sum of the CF and COF Registers
represent a phase increment which determines the
frequency of the quadrature outputs. Large phase
increments take fewer clocks to transition through the sine
wave cycle which results in a higher frequency NCO output.
The NCO frequency is set by loading the CF and COF
Registers. The contents of these registers set the NCO
frequency as given by the following,
FC = FS x (CF + COF)/232, (EQ. 5)
where fSis the sample rate set by the Input Controller, CF is
the 32-bit two’s complement value loaded into the Carrier
Frequency Register, and COF is the 32-bit two’s
complement value loaded into the Carrier Offset Frequency
Register. This can be rewritten to have the programmed CF
and COF value on the left:
As an example, if the CF Register is loaded with a value of
3000 0000 (Hex), the COF Register is loaded with a value of
1000 0000 (Hex), and the input sample rate is 40 MSPS, an
the NCO would produce quadrature terms with a frequency
of 10MHz. When the sum of CF and COF is a negative
value, the cos/sin vector generated by the NCO rotates
clockwise which downconverts the upper sideband; when
the sum is positive, the cos/sin vector rotates
counterclockwise which upconverts the lower sideband.
Note: the input sample rate FSis determined by the rate
at which ENI is asserted low (see Input Controller
Section). If ENI is tied low, the input sample rate is equal
to the CLK rate.
The Carrier Frequency Register is loaded via the
Microprocessor Interface and the Carrier Offset Frequency is
loaded serially using the COF and COFSYNC inputs. The
procedure for loading these registers is discussed in the
Microprocessor Interface Section and the Serial Input
Section.
The phase of the NCO’s quadrature outputs can be adjusted
by adding an offset value to the output of the phase
accumulator as shown in Figure 2. The offset value can be
loaded into the Phase Offset (PO) Register or input via the
PH0-1 inputs. If the PO Register is used, the phase can be
adjusted from -πto π with a resolution of ~1.4o. The phase
offset is given by the following equation,
φ=π x (PO/128), (EQ. 6)
where PO is the 8-bit two’s complement value loaded into the
Phase Offset Register (see Phase Offset Register in Table 12).
As an e xample, a value of 32, (20HEX), loaded into the Phase
Offset Register would produce a phase offset of 45o.
An alternative method for controlling the NCO Phase uses
the PH0-1 inputs to shift the phase of NCO’s output by 0o,
90o, 180o, or 270o. The PH0-1 inputs are mapped to phase
shifts as shown in Table 1. The phase may be updated every
clock supporting the π/2 phase shifts required for modulation
or despreading of CDMA signals.
The output of the complex multiplier is scaled by 2-36. See
“Setting DQT Gains” below.
AGC
The level of the Mixer output is gain adjusted by an AGC
closed around the Low Pass Filtering. The AGC provides the
coarse gain correction necessary to help maintain the output
of the HSP50110 at a signal level which maintains an
acceptable dynamic range. The AGC consists of a Level
Detector which generates an error signal, a Loop Gain
multiplier which amplifies the error, and a Loop Filter which
integrates the error to produce gain correction (see
Figure 4).
The Le vel Detector generates an error signal by comparing
the magnitude of the DQT output against a user
programmable threshold (see A GC Control Register in Table
8). In the normal mode of operation, the Level Detector
outputs a -1 f or magnitudes abo ve the threshold and +1 for
those below the threshold. The ±1 outputs are then multiplied
by a prog r ammable loop gain to generate the error signal
integrated by the Loop Filter. The Lev el Detector uses the
magnitude estimation algorithm described in the Input Le vel
Detector Section. The sense of the Level Detector Output may
be changed via the Chip Configuration Register, bit 0 (see
Table 11).
The Loop Filter consists of a multiplier, an accumulator and a
programmable limiter. The multiplier computes the product of
the output of the Level Detector and the Programmable Loop
Gain. The accumulator integrates this product to produce the
AGC gain, and the limiter keeps the gain between preset
limits (see AGC Control Register, Table 8). The output of the
AGC Loop Filter Accumulator can be read via the
Microprocessor Interface to estimate signal strength (see
Microprocessor Interface Section).
The Loop Filter Accumulator uses a pseudo floating point
format to provide up to ~48dB of gain correction. The format

of the accumulator output is shown in Figure 3. The AGC
gain is given by:
GainAGC = (1.0 + M) x 2E(EQ. 7)
where M is the 4-bit mantissa value ranging from 0.0 to
0.9375, and E is the three bit exponent ranging from 0 to 7.
The result is a piece wise linear transfer function whose
overall response is logarithmic, as shown in Figure 5. The
exponent bits provide a coarse gain setting of 2(EEE). This
corresponds to a gain range from 0dB to 42dB (20to 27) with
the MSB representing a 24dB gain, the next bit a 12dB gain,
and the final bit a 6dB gain. The four mantissa bits map to an
additional gain of 1.0 to 1.9375 (0 to ~6dB). Together, the
exponent and the mantissa portion of the limit set a gain
range from 0 to ~48dB.
The limiter restricts the AGC gain range by keeping the
accumulator output between the programmed limits. If the
accumulator exceeds the upper or lower limit, then the
accumulator is held to that limit. The limits are programmed
via eight bit words which express the values of the upper and
lower limits as eight bit pseudo floating point numbers as
shown in Figure 3 (see AGC Control Register, Table 8). The
format for the limits is the same as the format of the eight
most significant bits of the Loop Filter Accumulator.
Examples of how to set the limits for a specific output signal
level are provided in the “Setting DQT Gains” Section below.
NOTE: A fixed AGC gain may be set by programming
the upper and lower limits to the same value.
The response time of the AGC is determined by the
Programmable Loop Gain. The Loop Gain is an unsigned
8-bit value whose significance relative to the AGC gain is
shown in Figure 3. The loop gain is added or subtracted from
the accumulator depending on the output of the Level
Detector. The accumulator is updated at the output sample
rate. If the accumulator exceeds the upper or lower limit, the
accumulator is loaded with that limit. The slew rate of the
AGC ranges between ~0.001dB and 0.266dB per output
sample for Loop Gains between 01(HEX) and FF (HEX)
respectively.
The user should e xercise care when using maximum loop
gain when the (x/sin(x)) or the (x/sin(x))3compensation filter is
enabled. At high decimation r ates , the delay through the
compensation filter ma y be large enough to induce
oscillations in the A GC loop. The Basic Architectural
Configurations Section contains the necessary detailed block
diagrams to determine the loop delay for different matched
filter configurations.
Low Pass Filtering
The gain corrected signal feeds a Low Pass Filtering Section
comprised of a Cascaded Integrator Comb (CIC) and
compensation filter. The filtering section extracts the channel
of interest while providing decimation to match the output
sample rate to the channel bandwidth. A variety of filtering
configurations are possible which include integrate and
dump, integrate and dump with x/sin(x) compensation, third
order CIC, and third order CIC with ((x)/sin(x))3
compensation. If none of these filtering options are desired,
the entire filtering section may be bypassed.

The Integrate and Dump filter exhibits a frequency response
given by
where f is normalized frequency relative to the input sample
rate, FS, and R is the decimation rate [1]. The decimation
rate is equivalent to the number of samples in the integration
period. As an example, the frequency response for an
integrate and dump filter with decimation of 64 is shown in
Figure 6. The decimation rate is controlled by the
Re-Sampler and may range in value from 2 to 4096 (see
Re-Sampler Section).
For applications requiring better out of band attenuation, the
Third Order CIC filter may be selected. This filter has a
frequency response given by
H(f) = [sin(πfR)/sin(πf)]3 [1/R]3(EQ. 9)
where f is normalized frequency relative to the input sample
rate, and R is the decimation rate [1]. As with the integrate
and dump filter, the decimation rate is controlled by the Re-
Sampler. The decimation rate may range in value from
2-4096 when using CLK, or 3-4096 when using the Re-
Sampler NCO as a CLK source to the filter. The frequency
response for the third order CIC with a decimation rate of 64
is shown in Figure 7.
Compensation filters may be activated to flatten the frequency
responses of the integrate and dump and third order CIC
filters. The compensation filters operate at the decimated data
rate, and flatten the roll off the decimating filters from DC to
appro ximately one half of the output sample r ate . Together,
the Integrate and Dump filter and x/sin(x) compensation filter
typically yield a lowpass frequency response that is flat to
0.45FS with 0.03dB of ripple, and the third order CIC with
((x)/sin(x))3 compensation typically yields a flat passband to
0.45FS with 0.08dB of ripple. The overall passband ripple
degrades slightly for decimation rates of less than 10. Some
examples of compensation filter performance for the Integrate
and dump and third order CIC filter are shown overlaid on the
frequency responses of the uncompensated filters in Figure 6
and Figure 7. The coefficients for the compensation filters are
given in Table 2.
The out of band channels and noise attenuated by the
decimating filters are aliased into the output spectrum as a
result of the decimating process. A summation of the alias
terms at each frequency of the output spectrum produce
alias profiles which can be used to determine the usable
output bandwidth. A set of profiles representative of what
would be observed for decimation factors of ~10 or more are
shown in Figures 8 through 11. The Integrate and Dump
filter is typically used as a matched filter for square pulses

and less as a high order decimating filter. This is evident by
the narrow alias free part of the output bandwidth as shown
in Figures 8 and 9. The more rapid roll off of the third order
CIC produces an output spectrum containing a much higher
usable bandwidth versus output sample rate as shown in
Figures 10 and 11. For example, the aliasing noise at FS/4
for the uncompensated third order CIC filter is approximately
~29dB below the full scale input.
Understanding the Alias Profile
For digital filters that utilize decimation techniques to reduce
the rate of the digital processing, care must be taken to
understand the ramifications, in the frequency domain, of
decimation (rate reduction). Of primary concern is the “noise”
level increase due to signals that may be aliased inside the
band of interest. The potential magnitude of these signals
may render significant portions of the previously thought
usable bandwidth, unusable for applications that require
significant (>60dB) attenuation of undesired signals.
Consider a digital filter with sampling frequency fs, whose
frequency response shown in Figure 12A, the top spectrum.
At first glance the usable bandwidth would appear to be the
3dB bandwidth of the main lobe. This filter is to be
decimated to a rate of 1/8 fS. We concern ourselves with
those elements less than fS/2, as shown in Figure 12B. The
decimation process will fold the various lobes of the
frequency response around the new sampling folding
frequency of fS/2R. The first lobe is folded over the dotted line
and a significant portion of the first lobe appears in the
passband of the filter. Any unwanted signals in this part of the
spectrum will appear in the band of interest with the greatest
amplitude. The second lobe is translated down to be centered
on the dashed line. The third lobe is spectrally inverted and
translated to be centered on the dotted line. The fourth lobe is
simply translated to be centered on the dotted line. If there
were more lobes to the filter, the process would continue to
spectrally invert the odd numbered lobes prior to translation to
fS/2R. This process is sho wn in the “C” portion of Figure 12.

ALIAS PROFILE

To create the alias profile, a composite response, the
components of which are shown in the ”D” portion of
Figure 12, is made from the sum of all the alias elements.
The primary use of an alias profile is used to determine what
bandwidth yields the desired suppression of unwanted
signals for a particular application.
Reviewing Figures 9 through 11, note the following
observations:
1. The uncompensated I&D (1st order CIC) filter yields
about 12dB of alias suppression at fS/16R. This usable
bandwidth is considerably narrower than the 3dB filter
bandwidth. The I&D filter is the matched filter for square
wave data that has not been bandlimited.
2. The compensated I&D filter offers a flatter, wider band-
width than just the I&D alone. This filter compensates for
the frequency roll off due to the A/D converter.
3. Theuncompensated3rdorderCICfilteryieldsover60dB
of alias suppression at fS/16R. Typical application is
found in tuners, where the DQT is followed by a very nar-
row band filter.
4. The 3rd order CIC with compensation yields alias sup-
pression comparable to the 3rd order CIC, but with the
flatter, wider passband. This filter is selected for most
SATCOM applications.
Which filter is selected, is dependent on the application. It is
important to utilize these alias responses in calculating the
filter to be used, so that the signal suppression prediction will
accurately reflect the digital filter performance.
Noise Equivalent Bandwidth
The noise equivalent bandwidth (BN) performance of the
channel filter is dependent on the combination of Decimation
Filter and Compensation Filter chosen. For configurations
using the Integrate and Dump filter, BN is constant
regardless of decimation rate. However, for configurations
which use the third order CIC filter, BN converges to a
constant for decimation factors of over ~50. A summary of
equivalent IF BNs for different filter configurations and
decimation rates is given in Table 3. These noise bandwidths
are provided so that output SNR can be calculated from input
SNR. In detection applications this bandwidth indicates the
detection bandwidth.
Re-Sampler
The Re-Sampler sets the output sample rate by controlling
the sample rate of the decimation filters (see Low Pass Filter
Section). The output sample rate may be fixed or adjusted
dynamically to synchronize with baseband waveforms. The
reduction in sample rate between the Low Pass Filter input
and output represents the decimation factor.
The Decimating filter output is sampled by the prog rammab le
divider shown in Figure 13. The divider is a counter which is
decremented each time it is clocked. When the divider reaches
its terminal count, the output of the decimating filter is sampled.
The divider ma y be progr ammed with a divisor of from 1 to
4096 (see Table 10 Decimating Filter Configur ation Register).
One of two internal clock sources are chosen for the divider
based on whether a fixed or adjustable sample rate is
desired. For fixed output sample rates, a clock equal to the
input sample rate is selected (see Decimating Filter
Configuration Table 10). For adjustable output sample rates,
a clock generated by the carry out from the Re-Sampler
NCO is chosen.

The calculation of the decimation f actor depends on whether
the output sample rate is fixed or adjusted dynamically. For a
fix ed sample r ate , the decimation factor is equal to the divisor
loaded into the programmable divider. For example, if the
divider is configured with a divisor of 8, the decimation f actor
is 8 (i.e., the output data rate is Fs/8). If the decimation factor
is adjusted dynamically, it is a function of both the
programmable divisor and the frequency of carry outs from
the Re-Sampler NCO (FCO) as given by:
Decimation Factor =
(Programmable Divisor) x Fs/FCO (EQ. 10)
For example, if the programmable divisor is 8 and Fs/FCO =
40, the decimation factor would be 320.
NOTE: The CIC filter architecture only supports
decimation factors up to 4096.
The phase accumulator in the Re-Sampler NCO generates
the carry outs used to clock the prog r ammable divider. The
frequency at which carry outs are generated (FCO) is
determined by the values loaded into the Sampler Center
Frequency (SCF) and Sampler Offset Frequency (SOF)
Registers. The relationship between the values loaded into
these registers and the frequency of the carry outs is given by:
FCO = Fs x (SCF + SOF)/232 (EQ. 11)
where Fs is the input sample rate of the Lo w Pass Filter
Section, SCF is the 32-bit value loaded into the Sampler
Center Frequency Register, and SOF is the 32-bit value
loaded into the Sample Offset Frequency Register. The SCF
Register is loaded through the Microprocessor Interf ace (see
Microprocessor Interf ace Section), and the SOF Register is
loaded serially via the SOF and SOFSYNC inputs (see Serial
Input Section). The sample rate Fs is a function of the Input
Controller Mode. If the Controller is in Gated Input Mode, Fsis
the frequency with which ENI is asserted. In Interpolated Input
Mode, Fs is the CLK frequency (see Input Controller Section).
The carry out and 5 of the most significant 8 bits of the
NCO’s phase accumulator are output to control a resampling
filter such as the HSP43168. The resampling filter can be
used to provide finer time (symbol phase) resolution than
can be achieved by the sampling clock alone. This may be
needed to improve transmit/receive timing or better, align a
matched filter’s impulse response with the symbol
boundaries of a baseband waveform at high symbol rates.
The carry out of the NCO’s phase accumulator is output on
SSTRB, and a window of 5 of the 8 most significant 8 bits of
the Phase Accumulator are output on SPH0-4.
Output Formatter
The Output Formatter supports either Word Parallel or Bit
Serial output modes. The output can be chosen to have a
two’s complement or offset binary format. The configuration
is selected by loading the I/O Formatting/Control Register
(see Table 9).
In parallel output mode, the in-phase and quadrature
samples are output simultaneously at rates up to the
maximum CLK. The DATARDY output is asserted on the first
CLK cycle that new data is available on IOUT0-9 and
QOUT0-9 as shown in Figure 14. Output enables (OEI,
OEQ) are provided to individually three-state IOUT0-9 and
QOUT0-9 for output multiplexing.
When bit serial output is chosen, two serial output modes are
provided, Simultaneous I/Q Mode and I Followed b y Q Mode .
In Simultaneous I/Q Mode, the 10-bit I and Q samples are
output simultaneously on IOUT0 and QOUT0 as shown in
Figure 15. In I F ollo w ed by Q Mode, both samples are output
on IOUT0 with I samples f ollo w ed by Q samples as shown in
Figure 16. In this mode, the I and Q samples are pac ked into
separate 16-bit serial words (10 data bits + 6 zero bits). The
10 data bits are the 10 MSBs of the serial word, and the I
sample is diff erentiated from the Q sample by a 1 in the LSB
position of the 16-bit data word. A continuous serial output
clock is pro vided on IOUT9 which is deriv ed by dividing the

programmable clock factor is 1, IOUT9 is pulled high, and the
CLK signal should be used as the clock. The beginning of a
serial data word is signaled by the assertion of DATARDY one
serial clock bef ore the first bit of the output w ord. In I followed
by Q Mode , DATARDY is asserted prior to each 16-bit data
word. For added flexibility, the Formatter may be configured to
output the data words in either MSB or LSB first format.
Gain Distribution
The gain distribution in the DQT is shown in Figure 17. These
gains consist of a combination of fix ed, prog r ammable, and
adaptive gains. The fix ed gains are introduced by processing
elements like the Synthesiz er/Mixer and CIC Filter . The
programmable and adaptive gains are set to compensate for
the fix ed gains as w ell as variations in input signal strength.
The bit range of the data path between processing elements
is shown in Figure 17. The quadrature inputs to the data path
are 10-bit fractional two’s complement numbers. They are
multiplied b y a 10-bit quadr ature sin usoid and rounded to
12-bits in the Synthesizer/Mixer. The I and Q legs are then
scaled by a fixed gain of 2-36 to compensate for the worst
case gain of the CIC filter. Next, a gain block with an adaptive
and programmable component is used to set the output signal
level within the desired range of the 10-bit output (see Setting
DQT Gains Section). The adaptive component is produced by
the A GC and has a gain r ange from 1.0 to 1.9375*27. The
programmable component sets the gain range of the CIC
shifter which ma y r ange from 20 to 263. Care must be taken
when setting the A GC gain limits and the CIC Shifter gain
since the sum of these gains could shift the CIC Scaler output
beyond the bit range (-28 to 2-46) of the CIC Filter input. The
CIC Filter introduces a gain factor given by RNwhere R is the
decimation rate of the filter and N is the CIC order. The CIC
order is either 1 (integrate and dump filter) or 3. Depending on
configuration, the CIC Filter introduces a gain factor from 20to
236. The output of the CIC Filter is then rounded and limited to
an 11-bit window between bit positions 2 1 to 2 -9. Values
outside this range saturate to these 11 bits . The
Compensation Filter introduces a final gain factor of 1.0, 0.65,

Setting DQT Gains
The A GC and CIC Shifter gains are progr ammed to maintain
the output signal at a desired le v el. The gain range required
depends on the signal levels expected at the input and the A/D
back off required to prevent signal + noise from saturating the
A/D. The signal le v el at the input is based on the input SNR
which itself is derived from the either output SNR or output
ES/N0. Belo w are two examples which describe setting the
gains using either an output SNR or ES/N0 specification.
In applications based on the transmission of digital data, it is
useful to specify the DQT’s output in terms of ES/N0. The
f ollowing example uses this parameter and the others given in
Table 4 to sho w ho w the DQT’s gain settings can be derived.
First, the maximum and minimum input signal levels must be
determined. The maximum input signal lev el is achieved in a
noise free environment where the input signal is atten uated b y
12dB as a result of the A/D back off. The minimum input signal
is determined by conv erting the minimum output ES/N0
specification into an Input SNR. Using the example parameters
in Table 4 the minim um input SNR is giv en b y:
SNRIN= 10log10(ES/N0) + 10log10(Symbol Rate)
-10log10(NBW)
= -3dB + 10log10(0.5x32 x 103) - 10log10(10 x 106)
= -30.96dB (EQ. 12)
NOTE: 10log10(x) is used because these items are power
related.
Thus, the minimum input signal will then be -42.96dB below
full scale (-30.96dB -12dB for A/D backoff). Note: in this
example the symbol rate is assumed to be one half of the
output sample rate (i.e., there are 2 samples per symbol).
The output signal is related to the input signal by:
SOUT = SIN x GMIXER x GSCALER x GAGC x (EQ. 13)
GSHIFTER x GCIC x GCOMP (EQ. 14)
Using this equation, limits for GAGC and GSHIFTER can be
determined from the minimum and maximum input signal
conditions as given below (all gains specified in dB):
Min Input Level (Maximum Gain Required):
-6.02dB -42.96 - 6.02 - 216.74 + GAGC + GSHIFTER+
20 x log((40 x 106/32 x 103)3) - 2.27 (EQ. 15)
Max Input Le v el (Minimum Input Gain Required)
-6.02dB -12 - 6.02 - 216.74 + GAGC + GSHIFTER +
20 x log((40 x 106/32 x 103)3) - 2.27 (EQ. 16)
NOTE: 20log10(x) is used because these items are
amplitude related.
Solving the above inequalities for GAGC and GSHIFTER, the
gain range can be expressed as,
45.20dB < (GAGC + GSHIFTER) < 76.16dB. (EQ. 17)
The shifter gain provides a programmable gain which is a
factor of 2. Since GAGC 1.0, GSHIFTER is set as close to
the minimum gain requirement as possible:
GSHIFTER = 2N, (EQ. 18)
where
N = floor(log2(10(GMIN/20)))
= floor(log2(10(45.20/20))) = 7
The limits on the A GC gain can then be determined by
substituting the shifter gain into Equation 18 abov e . The
resulting limits are given b y:
3.05dB < GAGC <34.02dB. (EQ. 19)
In some applications it is more desirable to specify the DQT
output in terms of SNR. This example, covers derivation of
the gain settings based on an output SNR of 15dB. The
other system parameters are given in Table 4.
As in the previous examples the minimum and maximum
input signal levels must be determined. The minimum input
signal strength is determined by from the minimum output

Thus, the minimum input signal will be -21.66dB below full
scale (-9.66 -12 for A/D Backoff). As before the maximum
input signal in the absence of noise is -12dB down due to
A/D backoff.
From Equation 14, the gain relationships for maximum and
minimum input can be written as follows:
Min Input Le v el
-6.02dB -21.66 -6.02 - 216.74 + GAGC + GSHIFTER +
20*log((40 x 106/32 x 103)3)-2.27 (EQ. 21)
Max Input Le v el

20 x log((40 x 106/32 x 103)3) -2.27 (EQ. 22)
Using the upper and lower limits found above, the gain range
can be expressed as,
45.20dB < GAGC + GSHIFTER < 54.86dB. (EQ. 23)
Using Equation 2 in the previous example, the shifter gain is
determined to be 27, resulting in an AGC gain range of 3.05dB
< GAGC <12.72dB. (EQ. 24)
Basic Architectural Configurations
Detailed architectural diagr ams are presented in Figures 18
through 20 for the basic configurations, Integrate/Dump filtering
with optional compensation, 3rd Order CIC filtering with
optional compensation, and Decimating Filter bypass. Only one
of the data paths is shown since the processing on either the
inphase or quadrature legs is identical. These diagr ams are
useful for determining the throughput pipeline delay or the loop
dela y of the A GC as all the internal registers are shown.
All registers with the exception of those denoted by daggers ()
are enabled every CLK rate to minimize pipeline latency. The
registers marked by daggers are enab led at the output sample
rate as required b y the filtering operation perf ormed. The Loop
Filter accumulator in the A GC is enab led once per output
sample, and represents a dela y of one output sample . The
accumulators in the CIC filter each represent a dela y of one
CLK, but the y are enab led for processing once per input
sample. In Interpolated Input Mode the accumulators are
enabled every CLK since the sample rate is determined by the
CLK rate (see Input Controller Section). In Gated Input Mode,
the processing dela y of the accumulators is one CLK b ut the y
are only enabled once for each sample gated into the
processing pipeline. As a result, the latency through the
accumulators is 3 CLKs rather than 3 input sample periods
when configured as a 3rd order CIC filter.

Serial Input Interfaces
F requency control data for the NCOs contained in the
Synthesizer/Mixer and the Re-Sampler are loaded through two
separate serial interfaces . The Carrier Offset Frequency
Register controlling the Synthesizer NCO is loaded via the COF
and COFSYNC pins. The Sample Offset Frequency Register
controlling the Re-Sampler NCO is loaded via the SOF and
SOFSYNC pins.
The procedure f or loading data through these tw o pin
interf aces is identical. Each serial word has a progr ammable
word width of either 8, 16, 24, or 32 bits (see Chip
Configuration Register in Tab le 11). On the rising edge CLK,
data on COF or SOF is clocked into an Input Shift Register.
The beginning of a serial word is designated by asserting
either COFSYNC or SOFSYNC “high” one CLK prior to the
first data bit as shown in Figure 21. The assertion of the
SOFSYNC starts a count down from the programmed word
width. On following CLKs, data is shifted into the register until
the specified number of bits have been input. At this point data
shifting is disabled and the contents of the register are
transferred from the Shift Register to the respective 32-bit
Holding Register. The Shift Register is enabled to accept new
data on the following CLK. If the serial input word is defined to
be less than 32 bits, it will be transferred to the MSBs of the
32-bit holding register and the LSBs of the holding register will
be zeroed. See Figure 22 for details. Note: serial data must
be loaded MSB first, and COFSYNC or SOFSYNC should
not be asserted for more than one CLK cyc le.
Test Mode
The Test Mode is used to program each of the output pins to
“high” or “low” state via the Microprocessor Interface. If this
mode is enabled, the output pins are individually set or
cleared through the control bits of the Test Register in Table
13. When serial output mode is selected, the Test Register
ma y be used to set the state of the un used output bits.
Microprocessor Interface
The Microprocessor Interface is used for writing data to the
DQT’s Control Registers and reading the contents of the
AGC Loop accumulator (see AGC Section). The
Microprocessor Interface consists of a set of four 8-bit
holding registers and one 8-bit Address Register. These
registers are accessed via a 3-bit address bus (A0-2) and an
8-bit data bus (C0-7). The address map for these registers is
given in Table 5. The registers are loaded by setting up the
address (A0-2) and data (C0-7) to the rising edge of WR.
The HSP50110 is configured by loading a series of nine 32-bit
Control Registers via the Microprocessor Interf ace . A Control
Register is loaded by first writing the four 8-bit Holding
Registers and then writing the destination address to the
Address Register as shown in Figure 23. The Control
Register Address Map and bit definitions are given in Tables
6-15. Data is transferred from the Holding Registers to a
Control Register on the fourth clock following a write to the
Address Register. As a result, the Holding Registers should
not be updated any sooner than 4 CLK’s after an Address
Register write (see Figure 23). NOTE: the un used bits in a
Control Register need not be loaded into the Holding
Register.

A2-0 REGISTER DESCRIPTION
0 Holding Register 0. Transfers to bits 7-0 of the 32-bit Desti-
nation Register. Bit 0 is the LSB of the 32-bit register.
1 Holding Register 1. Transfers to bits 15-8 of a 32-bit Destina-
tion Register.
2 Holding Register 2. Transfers to bits 23-16 of a 32-bit Desti-
nation Register.
3 Holding Register 3. Transfers to bits 31-24 of a 32-bit
Destination Register. Bit 31 is the MSB of the 32-bit register.
4 This is the Destination Address Register. On the fourth CLK
following a write to this register, the contents of the Holding
Registers are transferred to the Destination Register. The
lower 4 bits written to this register are decoded into the Des-
tination Register address. The destination address map is
given in Tables 6-15.
HSP50110
17
For added flexibility, the CFLD input provides an alternative
mechanism for transferring data from the Microprocessor
Interfaces’s Holding Registers to the Center Frequency
Register. When CFLD is sampled “high” by the rising edge
of clock, the contents of the Holding Registers are
transferred to the Center Frequency Register as shown in
Figure 23. Using this loading mechanism, an update of the
Center Frequency Register can be synchronized with an
exter nal event. Caution should be taken when using the
CFLD since the Holding Register contents will be
transferred to the Center Frequency Register whenever
CFLD is asserted. NOTE: CFLD should not be asserted
any sooner than 2 CLK’s following the last Holding
Register load. As Shown in Figure 24, the next
Configuration Register can be loaded one CLK after CFLD
has been loaded on the rising edge of CLK.
The Microprocessor Interface can be used to read the upper
8 bits of the AGC Loop Filter Accumulator. The procedure for
reading the Loop Accumulator consists of first sampling the
loop accumulator by writing 9 to the Destination Address
Register and then reading the loop accumulator value on
C0-7 by asserting RD. The sampled value is enabled for
output on C0-7 by forcing RD “low” no sooner than 6 CLK’s
after the writing the Destination Register as shown in
Figure 25. The 8-bit output corresponds to the 3 exponent
bits and 5 fractional bits to the right of the binary point (see
Figure 3). The 3 exponent bits map to C7-5 with C7 being
the most significant. The fractional bits map to C4-0 in
decreasing significance from C4 to C0.
NOTE: These processor signals are representative. The actual shape of the waveforms will be set by the microprocessor used. Verify that the mi-
croprocessor waveforms meet the parameters in the Waveforms Section of this data sheet to ensure proper operation. While the microprocessor
waveforms are not required to be synchronous to CLK, they are shown as synchronous waveforms for clarity in the illustration.
