Detailed Description

Overview

The ADC32RF42 is a dual, 14-bit, 1.5-GSPS, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) followed by a multi-band digital down-converter (DDC) that can be bypassed, and a back-end JESD204B digital interface.

The ADCs are preceded by an input buffer and on-chip termination to provide a uniform input impedance over a large input frequency range. Furthermore, an internal differential clamping circuit provides first-level protection against overvoltage conditions. Each ADC channel is internally interleaved two times and equipped with background, analog and digital, and interleaving correction.

The on-chip DDC enables single- or dual-band internal processing to pre-select and filter smaller bands of interest and also reduces the digital output data traffic. Each DDC is equipped with up to three independent,
16-bit numerically-controlled oscillators (NCOs) for phase coherent frequency hopping; the NCOs can be controlled through the SPI or GPIO pins. The ADC32RF42 also provides three different power detectors on-chip with alarm outputs in order to support external automatic gain control (AGC) loops.

The processed data are passed into the JESD204B interface where the data are framed, encoded, serialized, and output on one to four lanes per channel, depending on the ADC sampling rate and decimation. The CLKIN, SYSREF, and SYNCB inputs provide the device clock and the SYSREF and SYNCB signals to the JESD204B interface that are used to derive the internal local frame and local multiframe clocks and establish the serial link. All features of the ADC32RF42 are configurable through the SPI.

Feature Description

Analog Inputs

The ADC32RF42 analog signal inputs are designed to be driven differentially. The analog input pins have internal analog buffers that drive the sampling circuit. The ADC32RF42 provides on-chip, differential termination to minimize reflections. The buffer also helps isolate the external driving circuit from the internal switching currents of the sampling circuit, thus resulting in a more constant SFDR performance across input frequencies.

The common-mode voltage of the signal inputs is internally biased to CM using the 32.5-Ω termination resistors that allow for ac-coupling of the input drive network. Figure 33 and Figure 34 show SDD11 at the analog inputs from dc to 5 GHz with a 100-Ω reference impedance.

Figure 33. Equivalent Input Impedance
ADC32RF42 D120_SBAS747.png Figure 34. SDD11 Over the Input Frequency Range

The input impedance of analog inputs can also be modelled as parallel combination of equivalent resistance and capacitance. Figure 35 and Figure 36 show how equivalent impedance (CIN and RIN) vary over frequency.

Input Frequency
ADC32RF42 D064_SBAS747.gif Figure 36. Differential Input Resistance vs Input Frquency

Each input pin (INP, INM) must swing symmetrically between (CM + 0.3375 V) and (CM – 0.3375 V), resulting in a 1.35-VPP (default) differential input swing. As shown in Figure 37, the input sampling circuit has a 3-dB bandwidth that extends up to approximately 3.2 GHz.

Figure 37. Input Bandwidth with a 100-Ω Source Resistance

Input Clamp Circuit

The ADC32RF42 analog inputs include an internal, differential clamp for overvoltage protection. As shown in Figure 38 and Figure 39, the clamp triggers for any input signals at approximately 600 mV above the input common-mode voltage, effectively limiting the maximum input signal to approximately 2.4 VPP.

When the clamp circuit conducts, the maximum differential current flowing through the circuit (via input pins) must be limited to 20 mA.

Clock Input

The ADC32RF42 sampling clock input includes internal 100-Ω differential termination along with on-chip biasing. The clock input is recommended to be ac-coupled externally. The input bandwidth of the clock input is approximately 3 GHz; the smith chart of Figure 40 shows a clock input impedance with a 100-Ω reference impedance.

ADC32RF42 D119_SBAS747.png Figure 40. SDD11 of the Clock Input

The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) aperture jitter is a function of the clock amplitude applied to the pins. Figure 41 shows the equivalent aperture jitter for input frequencies at a 1-GHz and a 2-GHz input (fS = 1.5 GSPS). Depending on the clock frequency, a matching circuit can be designed in order to maximize the clock amplitude.

ADC32RF42 D061_SBAS747.gif Figure 41. Equivalent Aperture Jitter vs Input Clock Amplitude

SYSREF Input

The SYSREF signal is a periodic signal that is sampled by the ADC32RF42 device clock and is used to align the boundary of the local multiframe clock inside the data converter. SYSREF is also used to reset critical blocks [such as the clock divider for the interleaved ADCs, numerically-controlled oscillators (NCOs), decimation filters and so forth].

The SYSREF input requires external biasing. Furthermore, SYSREF must be established before the SPI registers are programmed. A programmable delay on the SYSREF input, as shown in Figure 42, is available to help with skew adjustment when the sampling clock and SYSREF are not provided from the same source.

Using SYSREF

The ADC32RF42 uses SYSREF information to reset the clock divider, the NCO phase, and the LMFC counter of the JESD interface. The device provides flexibility to provide SYSREF information either from dedicated pins or through SPI register bits. As Figure 43 shows, SYSREF is asserted by a low-to-high transition on the SYSREF pins or a 0-to-1 change in the ASSERT SYSREF REG bit when using SPI registers.

ADC32RF42 sysref_dvdr_countr_sbas747.gif Figure 43. Using SYSREF to Reset the Clock Divider, the NCO, and the LMFC Counter

The ADC32RF42 samples the SYSREF signal on the input clock rising edge. Required setup and hold time are listed in the Timing Requirements table. Table 1 shows that the input clock divider gets reset each time that SYSREF is asserted, whereas the NCO phase and the LMFC counter of the JESD interface are reset on each SYSREF assertion after disregarding the first two assertions.

Table 1. Asserting SYSREF

SYSREF ASSERTION INDEX ACTION
INPUT CLOCK DIVIDER NCO PHASE LMFC COUNTER
1 Gets reset Does not get reset Does not get reset
2 Gets reset Does not get reset Does not get reset
3 Gets reset Gets reset Gets reset
4 and onwards Gets reset Gets reset Gets reset

The SESREF use-cases can be classified broadly into two categories:

  1. SYSREF is applied as aperiodic multi-shot pulses.
  2. Figure 44 shows a case when only a counted number of pulses are applied as SYSREF to the ADC.

    ADC32RF42 sysref_countr_sbas747.gif
    Alternatively, the SYSREF buffer can be powered down with the PDN SYSREF bit.
    Figure 44. SYSREF Used as Aperiodic, Finite Number of Pulses

    After the first SYSREF pulse is applied, allow the DLL in the clock path to settle by waiting for the tDLL time (> 40 µs) before applying the second pulse. During this time, mask the SYSREF going to the input clock divider by setting the MASK CLKDIV SYSREF bit so that the divider output phase remains stable. The NCO phase and LMFC counter are reset on the third SYSREF pulse. After the third SYSREF pulse, the SYSREF going to the NCO and JESD block can be disabled by setting the MASK NCO SYSREF bit to avoid any unwanted resets.

  3. SYSREF is applied as a periodic pulse.
  4. Figure 45 shows how SYSREF can be applied as a continuous periodic waveform.

    Alternatively, the SYSREF buffer can be powered down using the PDN SYSREF bit.
    Figure 45. SYSREF Used as a Periodic Waveform

    After applying the SYSREF signal, DLL must be allowed to lock, and the NCO phase and LMFC counter must be allowed to reset by waiting for at least the tDLL (40 µs) + 2 × tSYSREF time. Then, the SYSREF going to the NCO and JESD can be masked by setting the MASK NCO SYSREF register bit.

Frequency of the SYSREF Signal

Equation 1 describes that when SYSREF is a periodic signal, its frequency is required to be a sub-harmonic of the internal local multi-frame clock (LMFC) frequency. The LMFC frequency is determined by the selected decimation, frames per multi-frame setting (K), samples per frame (S), and device input clock frequency.

Equation 1. SYSREF = LMFC / N

where

  • N is an integer value (1, 2, 3, and so forth)

In order for the interleaving correction engine to synchronize properly, the SYSREF frequency must also be a multiple of fS / 64. Table 2 provides a summary of the valid LMFC clock settings.

Table 2. SYSREF and LMFC Clock Frequency

OPERATING MODE LMFS SETTING LMFC CLOCK FREQUENCY SYSREF FRQUENCY
Bypass mode 42810 fS(1) / (10 × K) fS / [N × LCM(2) (64, 10 × K(3))]
Bypass mode 4222 fS / (2 × K) fS / [N × LCM (64, 2 × K)]
Decimation Various fS / (D × S(4) × K) fS / [N × LCM (64, D(5) × S × K)]
fS = sampling (device) clock frequency.
LCM = least-common multiple.
K = number of frames per multi-frame.
S = samples per frame.
D = decimation ratio.

The SYSREF signal is recommended to be a low-frequency signal less than 5 MHz in order to reduce coupling to the signal path both on the printed circuit board (PCB) as well as internal to the device.

Example 1: fS = 1.5 GSPS, Bypass Mode (LMFS = 42810), K = 16

SYSREF = 1.5 GSPS / LCM (64, 10 × 16) / N = 4.6875 MHz / N

Operate SYSREF at 2.34375 MHz (effectively divide-by-640, N = 2)

Example 2: fS = 1.5 GSPS, Divide-by-8 (LMFS = 8411), K = 16

SYSREF = 2.6 GSPS / LCM (4 ,64, 16) = 40.625 MHz / N

Operate SYSREF at 2.539063 MHz (effectively divide-by-1024, N = 16)

For proper device operation, disable the SYSREF signal after the JESD synchronization is established.

DDC Block

The ADC32RF42 provides a sophisticated on-chip, digital down converter (DDC) block that can be controlled through SPI register settings and the general-purpose input/output (GPIO) pins. The DDC block supports two basic operating modes: receiver (RX) mode with single- or dual-band DDC and wide-bandwidth observation receiver mode.

Figure 46 shows that each ADC channel is followed by two DDC chains consisting of the digital filter along with a complex digital mixer with a 16-bit numerically-controlled oscillator (NCO). The NCOs allow accurate frequency tuning within the Nyquist zone prior to the digital filtering. One DDC chain is intended for supporting a dual-band DDC configuration in receiver mode and the second DDC chain supports the wide-bandwidth output option for the observation configuration. At any given time, either the single-band DDC, the dual-band DDC, or the wideband DDC can be enabled. Furthermore, three different NCO frequencies can be selected on that path and are quickly switched using the SPI or the GPIO pins to enable wide-bandwidth observation in a multi-band application.

ADC32RF42 ddc_block_sbas844.gif

NOTE:

Red traces show SYSREF going to the NCO blocks.
Figure 46. DDC Chains Overview (One ADC Channel Shown)

Additionally, the decimation filter block provides the option to convert the complex output back to real format at twice the decimated, complex output rate. The filter response with a real output is identical to a complex output. The band is centered in the middle of the Nyquist zone (mixed with fOUT / 4) based on a final output data rate of fOUT.

Operating Mode: Receiver

In receiver mode (and as shown in Figure 47), the DDC block can be configured to single- or dual-band operation. Both DDC chains use the same decimation filter setting and the available options are discussed in the Decimation Filters section. The decimation filter setting also directly affects the interface rate and number of lanes of the JESD204B interface.

NOTE:

Red traces show SYSREF going to the NCO blocks.
Figure 47. Decimation Filter Option for Single- or Dual-Band Operation

Operating Mode: Wide-Bandwidth Observation Receiver

This mode is intended for using a DDC with a wide bandwidth output, but for multiple bands. Figure 48 shows that this mode uses a single DDC chain where up to three NCOs can be used to perform wide-bandwidth observation in a multi-band environment. The three NCOs can be switched dynamically using either the GPIO pins or an SPI command. All three NCOs operate continuously to ensure phase continuity; however, when the NCO is switched, the output data are invalid until the decimation filters are completely flushed with data from the new band.

Decimation Filters

The stop-band rejection of the decimation filters is approximately 90 dB with a pass-band bandwidth of approximately 80%. Table 3 gives an overview of the pass-band bandwidth depending on decimation filter setting and ADC sampling rate.

Figure 49 shows a dual-band example with a divide-by-8 complex.

ADC32RF42 dual_band_ddc_sbas844.gif Figure 49. Dual-Band Example

The decimation filter responses normalized to the ADC sampling clock are illustrated in Figure 49 to Figure 64.

As shown in Figure 50, each figure contains the filter pass-band, transition bands, and alias bands. The x-axis in Figure 50 shows the offset frequency (after the NCO frequency shift) normalized to the ADC sampling clock frequency.

For example, in the divide-by-4 complex, the output data rate is an fS / 4 complex with a Nyquist zone of fS / 8 or 0.125 × fS. The transition band is centered around 0.125 × fS and the alias transition band is centered at 0.375 × fS. The alias bands that alias on top of the wanted signal band are centered at 0.25 × fS and 0.5 × fS (and are colored in red).

The decimation filters of the ADC32RF42 provide greater than 90-dB attenuation for the alias bands.

Digital Multiplexer (MUX)

The ADC32RF42 supports a mode where the output data of the ADC channel A can be routed internally to the digital blocks of both channel A and channel B. Figure 65 shows how ADC channel B can be powered down. In this manner, the ADC32RF42 can be configured as a single-channel ADC with up to four independent DDC chains or two wideband DDC chains. All decimation filters and JESD204B format configurations are identical to the two ADC channel operation.

ADC32RF42 digital_mux_sbas747.gif Figure 65. Digital Multiplexer Option

Numerically-Controlled Oscillators (NCOs) and Mixers

The ADC32RF42 is equipped with three independent, complex NCOs per ADC channel. Equation 2 describes how the oscillator generates a complex exponential sequence.

Equation 2. x[n] = e–jωn

where

  • frequency (ω) is specified as a signed number by the 16-bit register setting

The complex exponential sequence is multiplied by the real input from the ADC to mix the desired carrier down to 0 Hz.

Each ADC channel has two DDCs. The first DDC has three NCOs and the second DDC has one NCO. The first DDC can dynamically select one of the three NCOs based on the GPIO pin or SPI selection. In wide-bandwidth mode (lower decimation factors 4 and 6), there can only be one DDC for each ADC channel. The NCO frequencies can be programmed independently through the DDCx, NCO[4:1], and the MSB and LSB register settings.

Equation 3 provides the 16-bit register value that sets the NCO frequency setting:

Equation 3. ADC32RF42 nco_frequency_eq_sbas747.gif

where

  • x = 0, 1
  • y = 1 to 4

For example:

If fS = 1.5 GSPS, then the NCO register setting = 38230 (decimal).

Thus, Equation 4 defines fNCO:

Equation 4. ADC32RF42 eq_fnco_sbas844.gif

Any register setting changes that occur after the JESD204B interface is operational results in a non-deterministic NCO phase. If a deterministic phase is required, the JESD204B interface must be reinitialized after changing the register setting.

In bypass mode (when decimation filters are not used), the NCOs are powered down in order to avoid creating unwanted spurs.

NCO Switching

The first DDC (DDC0) on each ADC channel provides three different NCOs that can be used for phase-coherent frequency hopping. This feature is available in both single-band and dual-band mode, but only affects DDC0.

The NCOs can be switched through an SPI control or by using the GPIO pins with the register configurations shown in Table 4 for channel A (50xxh) and channel B (58xxh). The assignment of which GPIO pin to use for INSEL0 and INSEL1 is done based on Table 5, using registers 5438h and 5C38h. The NCO selection is done based on the logic selection on the GPIO pins; see Table 6 and Figure 66.

SerDes Transmitter Interface

Each 12.5-Gbps serializer, deserializer (SerDes) LVDS transmitter output requires ac-coupling between the transmitter and receiver. Terminate the differential pair as shown in Figure 67 with 100-Ω resistance (that is, two 50-Ω resistors) as close to the receiving device as possible to avoid unwanted reflections and signal degradation.

Alarm Outputs: Power Detectors for AGC Support

The GPIO pins can be configured as alarm outputs for channels A and B. The ADC32RF42 supports three different power detectors (an absolute peak power detector, crossing detector, and RMS power detector) as well as fast overrange from the ADC. The power detectors operate off the full-rate ADC output prior to the decimation filters.

Absolute Peak Power Detector

In this detector mode, the peak is computed over eight samples of the ADC output. Next (as illustrated in Figure 70 and Figure 71), the peak for a block of N samples (N × S`) is computed over a programmable block length and then compared against a threshold to either set or reset the peak detector output. There are two sets of thresholds and each set has two thresholds for hysteresis. The programmable DWELL-time counter is used for clearing the block detector alarm output.

ADC32RF42 abslt_pk_pwr_dtctr_sbas747.gif Figure 70. Peak Power Detector Implementation
ADC32RF42 abslt_pk_pwr_dtctr_tmg_dgm_sbas747.gif Figure 71. Peak Power Detector Timing Diagram

Table 7 shows the register configurations required to set up the absolute peak power detector. The detector operates in the fS / 8 clock domain; one peak sample is calculated over eight actual samples.

The automatic gain control (AGC) modes can be configured separately for channel A (54xxh) and channel B (5Cxxh), although some registers are common in 54xxh (such as the GPIO pin selection).

For example: if BLKTHHH is to –2 dBFS from peak, 10(–2 / 20) × 256 = 203, then set 5407h and 5C07h = CBh.
DWELL 540Bh, 540Ch, 5C0Bh, 5C0Ch When the computed block peak crosses the upper thresholds BLKTHHH or BLKTHLH, the peak detector output flags are set. In order to be reset, the computed block peak must remain continuously lower than the lower threshold (BLKTHHL or BLKTHLL) for the period specified by the DWELL value. This threshold is 16 bits and is specified in terms of fS / 8 clock cycles.

RESET AGC 542Bh, 5C2Bh After configuration, reset the AGC module to start operation.

Crossing Detector

In this detector mode the peak is computed over eight samples of the ADC output. Next, the peak for a block of N samples (N × S`) is computed over a programmable block length and then the peak is compared against two sets of programmable thresholds (with hysteresis). The crossing detector counts how many fS / 8 clock cycles that the block detector outputs are set high over a programmable time period and compares the counter value against the programmable thresholds. Figure 72 and Figure 73 show how the alarm outputs are updated at the end of the time period, routed to the GPIO pins, and held in that state through the next cycle. Alternatively, a 2-bit format can be used but (because the ADC32RF42 has four GPIO pins available) this feature uses all four pins for a single channel.

RMS Power Detector

In this detector mode the peak power is computed for a block of N samples over a programmable block length and then compared against two sets of programmable thresholds (with hysteresis).

The RMS power detector circuit shown in Figure 74 provides configuration options. The RMS power value (1 or 2 bit) can be output onto the GPIO pins. In 2-bit output mode, two different thresholds are used whereas the 1-bit output provides one threshold together with hysteresis.

Table 9 shows the register configurations required to set up the RMS power detector. The detector operates in the fS / 8 clock domain. The AGC modes can be configured separately for channel A (54xxh) and channel B (5Cxxh), although some registers are common in 54xxh (such as the GPIO pin selection).

GPIO AGC MUX

The GPIO pins can be used to control the NCO in wideband DDC mode or as alarm outputs for channel A and B. The GPIO pins can be configured as shown in Figure 75 through the SPI control to output the alarm from the peak power (1 bit), crossing detector (1 or 2 bit), faster overrange, or the RMS power output.

The programmable output MUX allows connecting any signal (including the NCO control) to any of the four GPIO pins. These pins can be configured as outputs (AGC alarm) or inputs (NCO control) through SPI programming.

Power-Down Mode

The ADC32RF42 provides a lot of configurability for the power-down mode. Power-down can be enabled using the PDN pin or the SPI register writes.

ADC Test Pattern

The ADC32RF42 provides several different options to output test patterns instead of the actual output data of the ADC in order to simplify the serial interface and system debug of the JESD204B digital interface link. Figure 76 shows the output data path.

ADC32RF42 adc_test_pattern_sbas747.gif Figure 76. Test Pattern Generator Implementation

Digital Block

The ADC test pattern replaces the actual output data of the ADC. The test patterns listed in Table 10 are available when the DDC is enabled and located in register 37h of the decimation filter page. When programmed, the test patterns are output for each converter (M) stream. The number of converter streams per channel increases by 2 when complex (I, Q) output or dual-band DDC is selected. The test patterns can be synchronized for both ADC channels using the SYSREF signal.

Additionally, a 12-bit ramp test pattern is available in DDC bypass mode.

NOTE

The number of converters increases in dual-band DDC mode and with a complex output.

Transport Layer

The transport layer maps the ADC output data into 8-bit octets and constructs the JESD204B frames using the LMFS parameters. Tail bits or 0's are added when needed. Alternatively, as described in Table 11, the JESD204B long transport layer test pattern can be substituted instead of the ADC data with the JESD frame.

100 = 12-octet random pattern (RPAT) jitter pattern

Furthermore, a 215 pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) can be enabled by setting up a custom test pattern (AAAAh) in the ADC section and running AAAAh through the 8b, 10b encoder with scrambling enabled.

Device Functional Modes

Device Configuration

The ADC32RF42 can be configured using a serial programming interface, as described in the Serial Interface section. In addition, the device has one dedicated parallel pin (PDN) for controlling the power-down modes.

JESD204B Interface

The ADC32RF42 supports device subclass 1 with a maximum output data rate of 12.5 Gbps for each serial transmitter.

An external SYSREF signal is used to align all internal clock phases and the local multiframe clock to a specific sampling clock edge. This alignment allows synchronization of multiple devices in a system and minimizes timing and alignment uncertainty. Figure 77 shows how the SYNCB input is used to control the JESD204B SerDes blocks.

Depending on the ADC sampling rate, the JESD204B output interface can be operated with one, two, or four lanes per ADC channel. The JESD204B setup and configuration of the frame assembly parameters is controlled through the SPI interface.

ADC32RF42 jesd204b_intrfc_sbas747.gif Figure 77. JESD Signal Overview

The JESD204B transmitter block shown in Figure 78 consists of the transport layer, the data scrambler, and the link layer. The transport layer maps the ADC output data into the selected JESD204B frame data format and manages if the ADC output data or test patterns are transmitted. The link layer performs the 8b, 10b data encoding as well as the synchronization and initial lane alignment using the SYNC input signal. Optionally, data from the transport layer can be scrambled.

ADC32RF42 jesd204b_block_sbas747.gif Figure 78. JESD Digital Block Implementation

JESD204B Initial Lane Alignment (ILA)

The receiving device starts the initial lane alignment process by deasserting the SYNCB signal. The SYNCB signal can be issued using the SYNCB input pins or by setting the proper SPI bits. When a logic low is detected on the SYNCB input (as shown in Figure 79), the ADC32RF42 starts transmitting comma (K28.5) characters to establish the code group synchronization.

When synchronization completes, the receiving device reasserts the SYNCB signal and the ADC32RF42 starts the initial lane alignment sequence with the next local multiframe clock boundary. The ADC32RF42 transmits four multiframes, each containing K frames (K is SPI programmable). Each of the multiframes contains the frame start and end symbols. The second multiframe also contains the JESD204 link configuration data.

ADC32RF42 jesd204b_lane_algnmnt_sbas844.gif Figure 79. JESD Internal Timing Information

JESD204B Frame Assembly

The JESD204B standard defines the following parameters:

  • F is the number of octets per frame clock period
  • L is the number of lanes per link
  • M is the number of converters for the device
  • S is the number of samples per frame

JESD204B Frame Assembly in Bypass Mode

Table 13 lists the available JESD204B formats and valid ranges for the ADC32RF42. The ranges are limited by the SerDes line rate and the maximum ADC sample frequency. Table 14 shows the sample alignment for the bypass modes on the different lanes.

Serial Interface

The ADC has a set of internal registers that can be accessed by the serial interface formed by the SEN (serial interface enable), SCLK (serial interface clock), and SDIN (serial interface data) pins. Serially shifting bits into the device is enabled when SEN is low. Figure 80 shows that SDIN serial data are latched at every SCLK rising edge when SEN is active (low). Table 24 shows that the interface can function with SCLK frequencies from 20 MHz down to low speeds (of a few hertz) and also with a non-50% SCLK duty cycle.

The SPI access described in Table 25 uses 24 bits consisting of eight register data bits, 12 register address bits, and four special bits to distinguish between read/write, page and register, and individual channel access.

Serial Register Write: Analog Bank

The internal register of the ADC32RF42 analog bank (Figure 82) can be programmed by:

  1. Driving the SEN pin low.
  2. Initiating a serial interface cycle selecting the page address of the register whose content must be written. To select the master page: write address 0012h with 04h. To select the ADC page: write address 0011h with FFh.
  3. Writing the register content. When a page is selected, multiple registers located in the same page can be programmed.

Serial Register Readout: Analog Bank

Contents of the registers located in the two pages of the analog bank (Figure 83) can be readback by:

  1. Driving the SEN pin low.
  2. Selecting the page address of the register whose content must be read. Master page: write address 0012h with 04h. ADC page: write address 0011h with FFh.
  3. Setting the R/W bit to 1 and writing the address to be read back.
  4. Reading back the register content on the SDOUT pin. When a page is selected, the contents of multiple registers located in same page can be readback.

ADC32RF42 srl_rgstr_read_sbas747.gif Figure 83. SPI Read Timing Diagram for the Analog Bank

Serial Register Write: Digital Bank

The digital bank contains seven pages (offset corrector page for channel A and B; digital gain page for channel A and B; main digital page for channel A and B; and JESD digital page). Figure 84 shows the timing for the individual page selection. The registers located in the pages of the digital bank can be programmed by:

  1. Driving the SEN pin low.
  2. Setting the M bit to 1 and specifying the page with the desired register. There are seven pages in digital bank. These pages can be selected by appropriately programming register bits DIGITAL BANK PAGE SEL, located in addresses 002h, 003h, and 004h, using three consecutive SPI cycles. Addressing in a SPI cycle begins with 4xxx when selecting a page from digital bank because the M bit must be set to 1.
    • To select the offset corrector page channel A: write address 4004h with 61h, 4003h with 00h, and 4002h with 00h.
    • To select the offset corrector page channel B: write address 4004h with 61h, 4003h with 01h, and 4002h with 00h.
    • To select the digital gain page channel A: write address 4004h with 61h, 4003h with 00h, and 4002h with 05h.
    • To select the digital gain page channel B: write address 4004h with 61h, 4003h with 01h, and 4002h with 05h.
    • To select the main digital page channel A: write address 4004h with 68h, 4003h with 00h, and 4002h with 00h.
    • To select the main digital page channel B: write address 4004h with 68h, 4003h with 01h, and 4002h with 00h.
    • To select the JESD digital page: write address 4004h with 69h, 4003h with 00h, and 4002h with 00h.
  3. ADC32RF42 dgtl_bank_spi_pg_sbas747.gif Figure 84. SPI Write Timing Diagram for Digital Bank Page Selection
  4. Writing into the desired register by setting both the M bit and P bit to 1. Write register content. When a page is selected, multiple writes into the same page can be done. As shown in Figure 85, addressing in an SPI cycle begins with 6xxx when selecting a page from the digital bank because the M bit must be set to 1.
  5. The JESD digital page is common for both channels. The CH bit can be used to distinguish between two channels when programming registers in the JESD digital page. When CH = 0, registers are programmed for channel B; when CH = 1, registers are programmed for channel A. Thus, an SPI cycle to program registers for channel B begins with 6xxx and channel A begins with 7xxx.

    ADC32RF42 dgtal_bank_reg_write_sbas747.gif Figure 85. SPI Write Timing Diagram for Digital Bank Register Write

Serial Register Readout: Digital Bank

Readback of the register in one of the digital banks (as shown in Figure 86) can be accomplished by:

  1. Driving the SEN pin low.
  2. Selecting the page in the digital page: follow step 2 in the Serial Register Write: Digital Bank section.
  3. Set the R/W, M, and P bits to 1, select channel A or channel B, and write the address to be read back.
    • JESD digital page: use the CH bit to select channel B (CH = 0) or channel A (CH = 1).
  4. Read back the register content on the SDOUT pin. When a page is selected, multiple read backs from the same page can be done.

ADC32RF42 digital_bank_serial_read_tim_sbas747.gif Figure 86. SPI Read Timing Diagram for the Digital Bank

Serial Register Write: Decimation Filter and Power Detector Pages

The decimation filter and power detector pages are special pages that accept direct addressing. The sampling clock and SYSREF signal are required to properly configure the decimation settings. Figure 87 shows that registers located in these pages can be programmed in one SPI cycle.

  1. Drive the SEN pin low.
  2. Directly write to the decimation filter or power detector pages. To program registers in these pages, set M = 1 and CH = 1. Additionally, address bit A[10] selects the decimation filter page (A[10] = 0) or the power detector page (A[10] = 1). Address bit A[11] selects channel A (A[11] = 0) or channel B (A[11] = 1).
    • Decimation filter page: write address 50xxh for channel A or 58xxh for channel B.
    • Power detector page: write address 54xxh for channel A or 5Cxxh for channel B.
Example: Writing address 5001h with 02h selects the decimation filter page for channel A and programs decimation factor of divide-by-8 (complex output).

Register Maps

The ADC32RF42 contains two main SPI banks. The analog SPI bank provides access to the ADC core and the digital SPI bank controls the digital blocks (including the serial JESD interface). Figure 88 and Figure 89 provide a conceptual view of the SPI registers inside the ADC32RF42. The analog SPI bank contains the master and ADC pages. The digital SPI bank is divided into multiple pages (the main digital, digital gain, decimation filter, JESD digital, and power detector pages). STOPPED HERE

ADC32RF42 serial_reg_2stepprog_sbas747.gif
In general, SPI writes are completed in two steps. The first step is to access the necessary page. The second step is to program the desired register in that page. When a page is accessed, the registers in that page can be programmed multiple times.
Registers in the decimation filter page and the power detector page can be directly programmed in one SPI cycle.
The CH bit is a don't care bit and is recommended to be kept at 0.
Figure 88. SPI Registers, Two-Step Addressing
ADC32RF42 serial_reg_direct_prog_sbas747.gif
Registers in the decimation filter page and the power detector page can be directly programmed in one SPI cycle.
To program registers in the decimation filter page, aet M = 1, CH = 1, A[10] = 0, and A[11] = 0 or 1 for channel A or B. Addressing begins at 50xx for channel A and 58xx for channel B.
To program registers in power detector page, set M = 1, CH = 1, A[10] = 1, and A[11] = 0 or 1 for channel A or B. Addressing begins at 54xx for channel A and 5Cxx for channel B.
