8 Detailed Description

8.1 Overview

The ADS4249 belongs to TI's ultralow power family of dual-channel, 14-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). High performance is maintained when reducing power for power sensitive applications. In addition to its low power and high performance, the ADS4249 has a number of digital features and operating modes to enable design flexibility.

8.2 Functional Block Diagram

ADS4249 fbd_bas534.gif

8.3 Feature Description

8.3.1 Digital Functions

The device has several useful digital functions (such as test patterns, gain, and offset correction). These functions require extra clock cycles for operation and increase the overall latency and power of the device. These digital functions are disabled by default after reset and the raw ADC output is routed to the output data pins with a latency of 16 clock cycles. Figure 37 shows more details of the processing after the ADC. In order to use any of the digital functions, the EN DIGITAL bit must be set to '1'. After this, the respective register bits must be programmed as described in the following sections and in the Serial Register Map section.

ADS4249 ai_digi_processing_fbd_bas534.gif Figure 37. Digital Processing Block

8.3.2 Gain for SFDR, SNR Trade-Off

The ADS4249 includes gain settings that can be used to get improved SFDR performance (compared to no gain). The gain is programmable from 0 dB to 6 dB (in 0.5-dB steps). For each gain setting, the analog input full-scale range scales proportionally, as shown in Table 2.

The SFDR improvement is achieved at the expense of SNR; for each gain setting, the SNR degrades approximately between 0.5 dB and 1 dB. The SNR degradation is reduced at high input frequencies. As a result, the gain is very useful at high input frequencies because the SFDR improvement is significant with marginal degradation in SNR. Therefore, the gain can be used as a trade-off between SFDR and SNR. Note that the default gain after reset is 0 dB.

Table 2. Full-Scale Range Across Gains

GAIN (dB) TYPE FULL-SCALE (VPP)
0 Default after reset 2
1 Fine, programmable 1.78
2 Fine, programmable 1.59
3 Fine, programmable 1.42
4 Fine, programmable 1.26
5 Fine, programmable 1.12
6 Fine, programmable 1

8.3.3 Offset Correction

The ADS4249 has an internal offset correction algorithm that estimates and corrects dc offset up to ±10 mV. The correction can be enabled using the ENABLE OFFSET CORR serial register bit. When enabled, the algorithm estimates the channel offset and applies the correction every clock cycle. The time constant of the correction loop is a function of the sampling clock frequency. The time constant can be controlled using the OFFSET CORR TIME CONSTANT register bits, as described in Table 3.

After the offset is estimated, the correction can be frozen by setting FREEZE OFFSET CORR = 0. When frozen, the last estimated value is used for the offset correction of every clock cycle. Note that offset correction is disabled by default after reset.

8.3.4 Power-Down

The ADS4249 has two power-down modes: global power-down and channel standby. These modes can be set using either the serial register bits or using the control pins CTRL1 to CTRL3 (as shown in Table 4).

Table 4. Power-Down Settings

CTRL1 CTRL2 CTRL3 DESCRIPTION
Low Low Low Default
Low Low High Not available
Low High Low Not available
Low High High Not available
High Low Low Global power-down
High Low High Channel A powered down, channel B is active
High High Low Not available
High High High MUX mode of operation, channel A and B data is multiplexed and output on DB[13:0] pins

8.3.4.1 Global Power-Down

In this mode, the entire chip (including ADCs, internal reference, and output buffers) are powered down, resulting in reduced total power dissipation of approximately 20 mW when the CTRL pins are used and 3mW when the PDN GLOBAL serial register bit is used. The output buffers are in high-impedance state. The wake-up time from global power-down to data becoming valid in normal mode is typically 100 µs.

8.3.4.2 Channel Standby

In this mode, each ADC channel can be powered down. The internal references are active, resulting in a quick wake-up time of 50 µs. The total power dissipation in standby is approximately 240 mW at 250 MSPS.

8.3.4.3 Input Clock Stop

In addition to the previous modes, the converter enters a low-power mode when the input clock frequency falls below 1 MSPS. The power dissipation is approximately 160 mW.

8.3.5 Output Data Format

Two output data formats are supported: twos complement and offset binary. The format can be selected using the DATA FORMAT serial interface register bit or by controlling the DFS pin in parallel configuration mode.

In the event of an input voltage overdrive, the digital outputs go to the appropriate full-scale level. For a positive overdrive, the output code is 3FFFh for the ADS4249 in offset binary output format; the output code is 1FFFh for the ADS4249 in twos complement output format. For a negative input overdrive, the output code is 0000h in offset binary output format and 2000h for the ADS4249 in twos complement output format.

8.4 Device Functional Modes

8.4.1 Output Interface Modes

The ADS4249 provides 14-bit digital data for each channel and an output clock synchronized with the data.

8.4.1.1 Output Interface

Two output interface options are available: double data rate (DDR) LVDS and parallel CMOS. They can be selected using the serial interface register bit or by setting the proper voltage on the SEN pin in parallel configuration mode.

8.4.1.2 DDR LVDS Outputs

In this mode, the data bits and clock are output using low-voltage differential signal (LVDS) levels. Two data bits are multiplexed and output on each LVDS differential pair, as shown in Figure 38.

ADS4249 ai_lvds_out_bas534.gif Figure 38. LVDS Interface

Even data bits (D0, D2, D4, and so forth) are output at the CLKOUTP rising edge and the odd data bits (D1, D3, D5, and so forth) are output at the CLKOUTP falling edge. Both the CLKOUTP rising and falling edges must be used to capture all the data bits, as shown in Figure 39.

ADS4249 tim_lvds_iface_bas534.gif Figure 39. DDR LVDS Interface Timing

8.4.1.3 LVDS Buffer

The equivalent circuit of each LVDS output buffer is shown in Figure 40. After reset, the buffer presents an output impedance of 100Ω to match with the external 100-Ω termination.

ADS4249 ai_lvds_buf_equiv_cir_bas550.gif

NOTE:

Default swing across 100-Ω load is ±350 mV. Use the LVDS SWING bits to change the swing.
Figure 40. LVDS Buffer Equivalent Circuit

The VDIFF voltage is nominally 350 mV, resulting in an output swing of ±350 mV with 100-Ω external termination. The VDIFF voltage is programmable using the LVDS SWING register bits from ±125 mV to ±570 mV.

Additionally, a mode exists to double the strength of the LVDS buffer to support 50-Ω differential termination, as shown in Figure 41. This mode can be used when the output LVDS signal is routed to two separate receiver chips, each using a 100-Ω termination. The mode can be enabled using the LVDS DATA STRENGTH and LVDS CLKOUT STRENGTH register bits for data and output clock buffers, respectively.

The buffer output impedance behaves in the same way as a source-side series termination. Absorbing reflections from the receiver end helps improve signal integrity.

ADS4249 ai_lvds_diff_termination_bas550.gif Figure 41. LVDS Buffer Differential Termination

8.4.1.4 Parallel CMOS Interface

In the CMOS mode, each data bit is output on separate pins as CMOS voltage level, every clock cycle, as Figure 42 shows. The rising edge of the output clock CLKOUT can be used to latch data in the receiver. Minimizing the load capacitance of the data and clock output pins is recommended by using short traces to the receiver. Furthermore, match the output data and clock traces to minimize the skew between them.

ADS4249 ai_cmos_out_bas534.gif Figure 42. CMOS Outputs

8.4.1.5 CMOS Interface Power Dissipation

With CMOS outputs, the DRVDD current scales with the sampling frequency and the load capacitance on every output pin. The maximum DRVDD current occurs when each output bit toggles between 0 and 1 every clock cycle. In actual applications, this condition is unlikely to occur. The actual DRVDD current would be determined by the average number of output bits switching, which is a function of the sampling frequency and the nature of the analog input signal. This relationship is shown by Equation 1:

Equation 1. Digital current as a result of CMOS output switching = CL × DRVDD × (N × FAVG)

where

  • CL = load capacitance,
  • N × FAVG = average number of output bits switching.

8.4.1.6 Multiplexed Mode of Operation

In this mode, the digital outputs of both channels are multiplexed and output on a single bus (DB[11:0] pins), as shown in Figure 43. The channel A output pins (DA[11:0]) are in 3-state. Because the output data rate on the DB bus is effectively doubled, this mode is recommended only for low sampling frequencies (less than 80 MSPS). This mode can be enabled using the POWER-DOWN MODE register bits or using the CTRL[3:1] parallel pins.

8.5 Programming

The ADS4249 can be configured independently using either parallel interface control or serial interface programming. Table 5 lists the device high-performance modes.

Table 5. High-Performance Modes(1)(2)

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
High-performance mode Set the HIGH PERF MODE[2:1] register bit to obtain best performance across sample clock and input signal frequencies.
Register address = 03h, data = 03h
High-frequency mode Set the HIGH FREQ MODE CH A and HIGH FREQ MODE CH B register bits for high input signal frequencies greater than 200 MHz.
Register address = 4Ah, data = 01h
Register address = 58h, data = 01h
High-speed mode Set the HIGH PERF MODE[8:3] bits to obtain best performance across input signal frequencies for sampling rates greater than 160 MSPS.
Note that this mode changes VCM to 0.87 V from its default value of 0.95 V.
Register address = 2h, data = 40h
Register address = D5h, data = 18h
Register address = D7h, data = 0Ch
Register address = DBh, data = 20h
(1) Using these modes to obtain best performance is recommended.
(2) See the Serial Interface Configuration section for details on register programming.

8.5.1 Parallel Configuration Only

To put the device into parallel configuration mode, keep RESET tied high (AVDD). Then, use the SEN, SCLK, CTRL1, CTRL2, and CTRL3 pins to directly control certain modes of the ADC. The device can be easily configured by connecting the parallel pins to the correct voltage levels (as described in Table 6 to Table 9). There is no need to apply a reset and SDATA can be connected to ground.

In this mode, SEN and SCLK function as parallel interface control pins. Some frequently-used functions can be controlled using these pins. Table 6 describes the modes controlled by the parallel pins.

Table 6. Parallel Pin Definition

PIN CONTROL MODE
SCLK Low-speed mode selection
SEN Output data format and output interface selection
CTRL1 Together, these pins control the power-down modes
CTRL2
CTRL3

8.5.2 Serial Interface Configuration Only

To enable this mode, the serial registers must first be reset to the default values and the RESET pin must be kept low. SEN, SDATA, and SCLK function as serial interface pins in this mode and can be used to access the internal registers of the ADC. The registers can be reset either by applying a pulse on the RESET pin or by setting the RESET bit high. The Serial Register Map section describes the register programming and the register reset process in more detail.

8.5.3 Using Both Serial Interface and Parallel Controls

For increased flexibility, a combination of serial interface registers and parallel pin controls (CTRL1 to CTRL3) can also be used to configure the device. To enable this option, keep RESET low. The parallel interface control pins CTRL1 to CTRL3 are available. After power-up, the device is automatically configured according to the voltage settings on these pins (see Table 9). SEN, SDATA, and SCLK function as serial interface digital pins and are used to access the internal registers of the ADC. The registers must first be reset to the default values either by applying a pulse on the RESET pin or by setting the RESET bit to '1'. After reset, the RESET pin must be kept low. The Serial Register Map section describes register programming and the register reset process in more detail.

8.5.4 Parallel Configuration Details

The functions controlled by each parallel pin are described in Table 7, Table 8, and Table 9. A simple way of configuring the parallel pins is shown in Figure 44.

8.5.5 Serial Interface Details

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 SDATA (serial interface data) pins. Serial shift of bits into the device is enabled when SEN is low. Serial data SDATA are latched at every SCLK falling edge when SEN is active (low). The serial data are loaded into the register at every 16th SCLK falling edge when SEN is low. When the word length exceeds a multiple of 16 bits, the excess bits are ignored. Data can be loaded in multiples of 16-bit words within a single active SEN pulse. The first eight bits form the register address and the remaining eight bits are the register data. The interface can work with SCLK frequencies from 20 MHz down to very low speeds (of a few hertz) and also with non-50% SCLK duty cycle.

8.5.5.1 Register Initialization

After power-up, the internal registers must be initialized to the default values. Initialization can be accomplished in one of two ways:

  1. Through a hardware reset by applying a high pulse on the RESET pin (of durations greater than 10 ns), see Figure 5 and the Serial Interface Timing Characteristics table; or
  2. By applying a software reset. When using the serial interface, set the RESET bit high. This setting initializes the internal registers to the default values and then self-resets the RESET bit low. In this case, the RESET pin is kept low. See the Reset Timing (Only when Serial Interface is Used) section and Figure 6 for reset timing.

8.5.5.2 Serial Register Readout

The device includes a mode where the contents of the internal registers can be read back. This readback mode may be useful as a diagnostic check to verify the serial interface communication between the external controller and the ADC. To use readback mode, follow this procedure:

  1. Set the READOUT register bit to '1'. This setting disables any further writes to the registers.
  2. Initiate a serial interface cycle specifying the address of the register (A7 to A0) whose content has to be read.
  3. The device outputs the contents (D7 to D0) of the selected register on the SDOUT pin (pin 64).
  4. The external controller can latch the contents at the SCLK falling edge.
  5. To enable register writes, reset the READOUT register bit to '0'.

The serial register readout works with both CMOS and LVDS interfaces on pin 64. Figure 45 shows the serial readout timing diagram.

When READOUT is disabled, the SDOUT pin is in high-impedance state.
