ADC12C080 www.ti.com SNAS379C - SEPTEMBER 2006 - REVISED APRIL 2013 ADC12C080 12-Bit, 65/80 MSPS A/D Converter Check for Samples: ADC12C080 FEATURES DESCRIPTION * * The ADC12C080 is a high-performance CMOS analog-to-digital converter capable of converting analog input signals into 12-bit digital words at rates up to 80 Mega Samples Per Second (MSPS). This converter uses a differential, pipelined architecture with digital error correction and an on-chip sampleand-hold circuit to minimize power consumption and the external component count, while providing excellent dynamic performance. A unique sampleand-hold stage yields a full-power bandwidth of 1 GHz. The ADC12C080 may be operated from a single +3.0V power supply and consumes low power. A separate +2.5V supply may be used for the digital output interface which allows lower power operation with reduced noise. A power-down feature reduces the power consumption to very low levels while still allowing fast wake-up time to full operation. The differential inputs accept a 2V full scale differential input swing. A stable 1.2V internal voltage reference is provided, or the ADC12C080 can be operated with an external 1.2V reference. Output data format (offset binary versus 2's complement) and duty cycle stabilizer are pin-selectable. The duty cycle stabilizer maintains performance over a wide range of clock duty cycles. 1 2 * * * * * * 1 GHz Full Power Bandwidth Internal Reference and Sample-and-Hold Circuit Low Power Consumption Data Ready Output Clock Clock Duty Cycle Stabilizer Single +3.0V Supply Operation Power-Down Mode 32-Pin WQFN Package, (5x5x0.8mm, 0.5mm Pin-Pitch) APPLICATIONS * * * * * High IF Sampling Receivers Wireless Base Station Receivers Test and Measurement Equipment Communications Instrumentation Portable Instrumentation KEY SPECIFICATIONS * * * * * * Resolution 12 Bits Conversion Rate 80 MSPS SNR (fIN = 170 MHz) 68 dBFS (typ) SFDR (fIN = 170 MHz) 86 dBFS (typ) Full Power Bandwidth 1 GHz (typ) Power Consumption 300 mW (typ) The ADC12C080 is available in a 32-lead WQFN package and operates over the industrial temperature range of -40C to +85C.

A 0.1 F capacitor should be placed between VRP and VRN as close to the pins as possible, and a 1 F capacitor should be placed in parallel. VRP and VRN should not be loaded. VCMO may be loaded to 1mA for use as a temperature stable 1.5V reference. It is recommended to use VCMO to provide the common mode voltage, VCM, for the differential analog inputs, VIN+ and VIN-. AGND AGND VA 31 Reference Voltage. This device provides an internally developed 1.2V reference. When using the internal reference, VREF should be decoupled to AGND with a 0.1 Fand a 1 F low equivalent series inductance (ESL) capacitor.

Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is specified to be functional, but do not ensure specific performance limits. For ensured specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The ensured specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions. Operation of the device beyond the maximum Operating Ratings is not recommended. If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications. When the input voltage at any pin exceeds the power supplies (that is, VIN < AGND, or VIN > VA), the current at that pin should be limited to 5 mA. The 50 mA maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of 5 mA to 10. The maximum allowable power dissipation is dictated by TJ,max, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, (JA), and the ambient temperature, (TA), and can be calculated using the formula PD,max = (TJ,max - TA )/JA. The values for maximum power dissipation listed above will be reached only when the device is operated in a severe fault condition (e.g. when input or output pins are driven beyond the power supply voltages, or the power supply polarity is reversed). Such conditions should always be avoided. Human Body Model is 100 pF discharged through a 1.5 k resistor. Machine Model is 220 pF discharged through 0 Reflow temperature profiles are different for lead-free and non-lead-free packages.

APERTURE JITTER (APERTURE UNCERTAINTY) is the variation in aperture delay from sample to sample. Aperture jitter manifests itself as noise in the output. CLOCK DUTY CYCLE is the ratio of the time during one cycle that a repetitive digital waveform is high to the total time of one period. The specification here refers to the ADC clock input signal. COMMON MODE VOLTAGE (VCM) is the common DC voltage applied to both input terminals of the ADC. CONVERSION LATENCY is the number of clock cycles between initiation of conversion and when that data is presented to the output driver stage. Data for any given sample is available at the output pins the Pipeline Delay plus the Output Delay after the sample is taken. New data is available at every clock cycle, but the data lags the conversion by the pipeline delay. DIFFERENTIAL NON-LINEARITY (DNL) is the measure of the maximum deviation from the ideal step size of 1 LSB. EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB, or EFFECTIVE BITS) is another method of specifying Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio or SINAD. ENOB is defined as (SINAD - 1.76) / 6.02 and says that the converter is equivalent to a perfect ADC of this (ENOB) number of bits. FULL POWER BANDWIDTH is a measure of the frequency at which the reconstructed output fundamental drops 3 dB below its low frequency value for a full scale input. GAIN ERROR is the deviation from the ideal slope of the transfer function. It can be calculated as: Gain Error = Positive Full Scale Error - Negative Full Scale Error (1) It can also be expressed as Positive Gain Error and Negative Gain Error, which are calculated as: PGE = Positive Full Scale Error - Offset Error NGE = Offset Error - Negative Full Scale Error (2) INTEGRAL NON LINEARITY (INL) is a measure of the deviation of each individual code from a best fit straight line. The deviation of any given code from this straight line is measured from the center of that code value. INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) is the creation of additional spectral components as a result of two sinusoidal frequencies being applied to the ADC input at the same time. It is defined as the ratio of the power in the intermodulation products to the total power in the original frequencies. IMD is usually expressed in dBFS. LSB (LEAST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the smallest value or weight of all bits. This value is VFS/2n, where "VFS" is the full scale input voltage and "n" is the ADC resolution in bits. MISSING CODES are those output codes that will never appear at the ADC outputs. The ADC is ensured not to have any missing codes. MSB (MOST SIGNIFICANT BIT) is the bit that has the largest value or weight. Its value is one half of full scale. NEGATIVE FULL SCALE ERROR is the difference between the actual first code transition and its ideal value of 1/2 LSB above negative full scale. OFFSET ERROR is the difference between the two input voltages [(VIN+) - (VIN-)] required to cause a transition from code 2047 to 2048. OUTPUT DELAY is the time delay after the falling edge of the clock before the data update is presented at the output pins. PIPELINE DELAY (LATENCY) See CONVERSION LATENCY. POSITIVE FULL SCALE ERROR is the difference between the actual last code transition and its ideal value of 11/2 LSB below positive full scale. POWER SUPPLY REJECTION RATIO (PSRR) is a measure of how well the ADC rejects a change in the power supply voltage. PSRR is the ratio of the Full-Scale output of the ADC with the supply at the minimum DC supply limit to the Full-Scale output of the ADC with the supply at the maximum DC supply limit, expressed in dB.

SIGNAL TO NOISE PLUS DISTORTION (S/N+D or SINAD) Is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms value of the input signal to the rms value of all of the other spectral components below half the clock frequency, including harmonics but excluding d.c. SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR) is the difference, expressed in dB, between the rms values of the input signal and the peak spurious signal, where a spurious signal is any signal present in the output spectrum that is not present at the input. TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD) is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the rms total of the first six harmonic levels at the output to the level of the fundamental at the output. THD is calculated as (3) where f1 is the RMS power of the fundamental (output) frequency and f2 through f7 are the RMS power of the first six harmonic frequencies in the output spectrum.

The differential analog input signal is digitized to 12 bits. The user has the choice of using an internal 1.2V stable reference, or using an external 1.2V reference. Any external reference is buffered on-chip to ease the task of driving that pin. The output word rate is the same as the clock frequency. The analog input is acquired at the rising edge of the clock and the digital data for a given sample is delayed by the pipeline for 7 clock cycles. The digital outputs are CMOS compatible signals that are clocked by a synchronous data ready output signal (DRDY, pin 21) at the same rate as the clock input. Duty cycle stabilization and output data format are selectable using the quad state function OF/DCS pin (pin 12). The output data can be set for offset binary or two's complement. Power-down is selectable using the PD pin (pin 30). A logic high on the PD pin reduces the converter power consumption. For normal operation, the PD pin should be connected to the analog ground (AGND). APPLICATIONS INFORMATION OPERATING CONDITIONS We recommend that the following conditions be observed for operation of the ADC12C080: 2.7V VA 3.6V 2.4V VDR VA 20 MHz fCLK 80 MHz 1.2V internal reference VREF = 1.2V (for an external reference) VCM = 1.5V (from VCMO) ANALOG INPUTS Signal Inputs Differential Analog Input Pins The ADC12C080 has one pair of analog signal input pins, VIN+ and VIN-, which form a differential input pair. The input signal, VIN, is defined as VIN = (VIN+) - (VIN-) (4) Figure 30 shows the expected input signal range. Note that the common mode input voltage, VCM, should be 1.5V. Using VCMO (pin 32) for VCM will ensure the proper input common mode level for the analog input signal. The positive peaks of the individual input signals should each never exceed 2.6V. Each analog input pin of the differential pair should have a maximum peak-to-peak voltage of 1V, be 180 out of phase with each other and be centered around VCM. The peak-to-peak voltage swing at each analog input pin should not exceed the 1V or the output data will be clipped. Figure 30. Expected Input Signal Range For single frequency sine waves the full scale error in LSB can be described as approximately 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2006-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: ADC12C080 ADC12C080 www.ti.com SNAS379C - SEPTEMBER 2006 - REVISED APRIL 2013 EFS = 4096 ( 1 - sin (90 + dev)) (5) Where dev is the angular difference in degrees between the two signals having a 180 relative phase relationship to each other (see Figure 30). For single frequency inputs, angular errors result in a reduction of the effective full scale input. For complex waveforms, however, angular errors will result in distortion. Figure 31. Angular Errors Between the Two Input Signals Will Reduce the Output Level or Cause Distortion It is recommended to drive the analog inputs with a source impedance less than 100. Matching the source impedance for the differential inputs will improve even ordered harmonic performance (particularly second harmonic).

A differential amplifier can be used to drive the analog inputs for low frequency applications. The amplifier must be fast enough to settle from the charging glitches on the analog input resulting from the sample-and-hold operation before the clock goes high and the sample is passed to the ADC core. The SFDR performance of the converter depends on the external signal conditioning circuity used, as this affects how quickly the sample-and-hold charging glitch will settle. An external resistor and capacitor network as shown in Figure 34 should be used to isolate the charging glitches at the ADC input from the external driving circuit and to filter the wideband noise at the converter input. These components should be placed close to the ADC inputs because the analog input of the ADC is the most sensitive part of the system, and this is the last opportunity to filter that input. For Nyquist applications the RC pole should be at the ADC sample rate. The ADC input capacitance in the sample mode should be considered when setting the RC pole. For wideband undersampling applications, the RC pole should be set at least 1.5 to 2 times the maximum input frequency to maintain a linear delay response. Input Common Mode Voltage The input common mode voltage, VCM, should be in the range of 1.4V to 1.6V and be a value such that the peak excursions of the analog signal do not go more negative than ground or more positive than 2.6V. It is recommended to use VCMO (pin 32) as the input common mode voltage. If the ADC12C080 is operated with VA=3.6V, a resistor of approximately 1K should be used from the VCMO pin to AGND.This will help maintain stability over the entire temperature range when using a high supply voltage. Reference Pins The ADC12C080 is designed to operate with an internal or external 1.2V reference. The internal 1.2 Volt reference is the default condition when no external reference input is applied to the VREF pin. If a voltage is applied to the VREF pin, then that voltage is used for the reference. The VREF pin should always be bypassed to ground with a 0.1 F capacitor close to the reference input pin. It is important that all grounds associated with the reference voltage and the analog input signal make connection to the ground plane at a single, quiet point to minimize the effects of noise currents in the ground path. The Reference Bypass Pins (VRP, VCMO, and VRN) are made available for bypass purposes. These pins should each be bypassed to AGND with a low ESL (equivalent series inductance) 1 F capacitor placed very close to the pin to minimize stray inductance. A 0.1 F capacitor should be placed between VRP and VRN as close to the pins as possible, and a 1 F capacitor should be placed in parallel. This configuration is shown in Figure 34. It is necessary to avoid reference oscillation, which could result in reduced SFDR and/or SNR. VCMO may be loaded to 1mA for use as a temperature stable 1.5V reference. The remaining pins should not be loaded. Smaller capacitor values than those specified will allow faster recovery from the power down mode, but may result in degraded noise performance. Loading any of these pins, other than VCMO may result in performance degradation. The nominal voltages for the reference bypass pins are as follows: VCMO = 1.5 V VRP = 2.0 V VRN = 1.0 V OF/DCS Pin Duty cycle stabilization and output data format are selectable using this quad state function pin. When enabled, duty cycle stabilization can compensate for clock inputs with duty cycles ranging from 30% to 70% and generate a stable internal clock, improving the performance of the part. With OF/DCS = VA the output data format is 2's complement and duty cycle stabilization is not used. With OF/DCS = AGND the output data format is offset binary and duty cycle stabilization is not used. With OF/DCS = (2/3)*VA the output data format is 2's complement and duty cycle stabilization is applied to the clock. If OF/DCS is (1/3)*VA the output data format is offset binary and duty cycle stabilization is applied to the clock. While the sense of this pin may be changed "on the fly," doing this is not recommended as the output data could be erroneous for a few clock cycles after this change is made. 22 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2006-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: ADC12C080 ADC12C080 www.ti.com SNAS379C - SEPTEMBER 2006 - REVISED APRIL 2013 DIGITAL INPUTS Digital CMOS compatible inputs consist of CLK, and PD. Clock Input The CLK controls the timing of the sampling process. To achieve the optimum noise performance, the clock input should be driven with a stable, low jitter clock signal in the range indicated in the Electrical Table. The clock input signal should also have a short transition region. This can be achieved by passing a low-jitter sinusoidal clock source through a high speed buffer gate. The trace carrying the clock signal should be as short as possible and should not cross any other signal line, analog or digital, not even at 90. The clock signal also drives an internal state machine. If the clock is interrupted, or its frequency is too low, the charge on the internal capacitors can dissipate to the point where the accuracy of the output data will degrade. This is what limits the minimum sample rate. The clock line should be terminated at its source in the characteristic impedance of that line. Take care to maintain a constant clock line impedance throughout the length of the line. Refer to Application Note AN-905 (SNLA035) for information on setting characteristic impedance. It is highly desirable that the the source driving the ADC clock pins only drive that pin. However, if that source is used to drive other devices, then each driven pin should be AC terminated with a series RC to ground, such that the resistor value is equal to the characteristic impedance of the clock line and the capacitor value is (6) where tPD is the signal propagation rate down the clock line, "L" is the line length and ZO is the characteristic impedance of the clock line. This termination should be as close as possible to the ADC clock pin but beyond it as seen from the clock source. Typical tPD is about 150 ps/inch (60 ps/cm) on FR-4 board material. The units of "L" and tPD should be the same (inches or centimeters). The duty cycle of the clock signal can affect the performance of the A/D Converter. Because achieving a precise duty cycle is difficult, the ADC12C080 has a Duty Cycle Stabilizer. Power-Down (PD) The PD pin, when high, holds the ADC12C080 in a power-down mode to conserve power when the converter is not being used. The power consumption in this state is 5 mW if the clock is stopped when PD is high. The output data pins are undefined and the data in the pipeline is corrupted while in the power down mode. The Power Down Mode Exit Cycle time is determined by the value of the components on pins 1, 2, and 32 and is about 3 ms with the recommended components on the VRP, VCMO and VRN reference bypass pins. These capacitors loose their charge in the Power Down mode and must be recharged by on-chip circuitry before conversions can be accurate. Smaller capacitor values allow slightly faster recovery from the power down mode, but can result in a reduction in SNR, SINAD and ENOB performance. DIGITAL OUTPUTS Digital outputs consist of the CMOS signals D0-D11, and DRDY. The ADC12C080 has 13 CMOS compatible data output pins corresponding to the converted input value and a data ready (DRDY) signal that should be used to capture the output data. Valid data is present at these outputs while the PD pin is low. Data should be captured and latched with the rising edge of the DRDY signal. Be very careful when driving a high capacitance bus. The more capacitance the output drivers must charge for each conversion, the more instantaneous digital current flows through VDR and DRGND. These large charging current spikes can cause on-chip ground noise and couple into the analog circuitry, degrading dynamic performance. Adequate bypassing, limiting output capacitance and careful attention to the ground plane will reduce this problem. The result could be an apparent reduction in dynamic performance.

Application Circuit POWER SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS The power supply pins should be bypassed with a 0.1 F capacitor and with a 100 pF ceramic chip capacitor close to each power pin. Leadless chip capacitors are preferred because they have low series inductance. As is the case with all high-speed converters, the ADC12C080 is sensitive to power supply noise. Accordingly, the noise on the analog supply pin should be kept below 100 mVP-P. No pin should ever have a voltage on it that is in excess of the supply voltages, not even on a transient basis. Be especially careful of this during power turn on and turn off. The VDR pin provides power for the output drivers and may be operated from a supply in the range of 2.4V to VA. This enables lower power operation, reduces the noise coupling effects from the digital outputs to the analog circuitry and simplifies interfacing to lower voltage devices and systems. LAYOUT AND GROUNDING Proper grounding and proper routing of all signals are essential to ensure accurate conversion. Maintaining separate analog and digital areas of the board, with the ADC12C080 between these areas, is required to achieve specified performance. The ground return for the data outputs (DRGND) carries the ground current for the output drivers. The output current can exhibit high transients that could add noise to the conversion process. To prevent this from happening, the DRGND pins should NOT be connected to system ground in close proximity to any of the ADC12C080's other ground pins. Capacitive coupling between the typically noisy digital circuitry and the sensitive analog circuitry can lead to poor performance. The solution is to keep the analog circuitry separated from the digital circuitry, and to keep the clock line as short as possible. The effects of the noise generated from the ADC output switching can be minimized through the use of 22 resistors in series with each data output line. Locate these resistors as close to the ADC output pins as possible. Since digital switching transients are composed largely of high frequency components, total ground plane copper weight will have little effect upon the logic-generated noise. This is because of the skin effect. Total surface area is more important than is total ground plane area. 24 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2006-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: ADC12C080 ADC12C080 www.ti.com SNAS379C - SEPTEMBER 2006 - REVISED APRIL 2013 Generally, analog and digital lines should cross each other at 90 to avoid crosstalk. To maximize accuracy in high speed, high resolution systems, however, avoid crossing analog and digital lines altogether. It is important to keep clock lines as short as possible and isolated from ALL other lines, including other digital lines. Even the generally accepted 90 crossing should be avoided with the clock line as even a little coupling can cause problems at high frequencies. This is because other lines can introduce jitter into the clock line, which can lead to degradation of SNR. Also, the high speed clock can introduce noise into the analog chain. Best performance at high frequencies and at high resolution is obtained with a straight signal path. That is, the signal path through all components should form a straight line wherever possible. Be especially careful with the layout of inductors and transformers. Mutual inductance can change the characteristics of the circuit in which they are used. Inductors and transformers should not be placed side by side, even with just a small part of their bodies beside each other. For instance, place transformers for the analog input and the clock input at 90 to one another to avoid magnetic coupling. The analog input should be isolated from noisy signal traces to avoid coupling of spurious signals into the input. Any external component (e.g., a filter capacitor) connected between the converter's input pins and ground or to the reference input pin and ground should be connected to a very clean point in the ground plane. All analog circuitry (input amplifiers, filters, reference components, etc.) should be placed in the analog area of the board. All digital circuitry and dynamic I/O lines should be placed in the digital area of the board. The ADC12C080 should be between these two areas. Furthermore, all components in the reference circuitry and the input signal chain that are connected to ground should be connected together with short traces and enter the ground plane at a single, quiet point. All ground connections should have a low inductance path to ground. DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE To achieve the best dynamic performance, the clock source driving the CLK input must have a sharp transition region and be free of jitter. Isolate the ADC clock from any digital circuitry with buffers, as with the clock tree shown in Figure 35. The gates used in the clock tree must be capable of operating at frequencies much higher than those used if added jitter is to be prevented. As mentioned in LAYOUT AND GROUNDING, it is good practice to keep the ADC clock line as short as possible and to keep it well away from any other signals. Other signals can introduce jitter into the clock signal, which can lead to reduced SNR performance, and the clock can introduce noise into other lines. Even lines with 90 crossings have capacitive coupling, so try to avoid even these 90 crossings of the clock line. Figure 35.

TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI's terms and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily performed. TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers' products. Buyers are responsible for their products and applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers' products and applications, Buyers should provide adequate design and operating safeguards. TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI. Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of any TI components in safety-critical applications. In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI's goal is to help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms. No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use. Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or "enhanced plastic" are designed and intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use. TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
