A 0.1 F decoupling capacitor should be connected between AVDD and AGND. AVDD can have a value of +5 V 10% or +3.3 V 10%. AGND Analog Ground. DVDD Positive power supply for the digital section. A 0.1 F decoupling capacitor should be connected between DVDD and DGND. DVDD can have a value of +5 V 10% or +3.3 V 10%. DGND Digital Ground. ANALOG SIGNAL AND REFERENCE IOUT Current Output. This is a high impedance current source. A load resistor should be connected between IOUT and AGND. FS ADJUST Full-Scale Adjust Control. A resistor (RSET) is connected between this pin and AGND. This determines the magnitude of the full-scale DAC current. The relationship between RSET and the full-scale current is as follows: IOUTFULL-SCALE = 12.5 x VREFIN/RSET VREFIN = 1.21 V nominal, RSET = 3.9 k typical REFIN Voltage Reference Input. The AD9831 can be used with either the on-board reference, which is available from pin REFOUT, or an external reference. The reference to be used is connected to the REFIN pin. The AD9831 accepts a reference of 1.21 V nominal. REFOUT Voltage Reference Output. The AD9831 has an on-board reference of value 1.21 V nominal. The reference is made available on the REFOUT pin. This reference is used as the reference to the DAC by connecting REFOUT to REFIN. REFOUT should be decoupled with a 10 nF capacitor to AGND. COMP Compensation pin. This is a compensation pin for the internal reference amplifier. A 10 nF decoupling ceramic capacitor should be connected between COMP and AVDD. DIGITAL INTERFACE AND CONTROL MCLK Digital Clock Input. DDS output frequencies are expressed as a binary fraction of the frequency of MCLK. The output frequency accuracy and phase noise are determined by this clock. FSELECT Frequency Select Input. FSELECT controls which frequency register, FREQ0 or FREQ1, is used in the phase accumulator. FSELECT is sampled on the rising MCLK edge. FSELECT needs to be in steady state when an MCLK rising edge occurs. If FSELECT changes value when a rising edge occurs, there is an uncertainty of one MCLK cycle as to when control is transferred to the other frequency register. To avoid any uncertainty, a change on FSELECT should not coincide with an MCLK rising edge. WR Write, Edge-Triggered Digital Input. The WR pin is used when writing data to the AD9831. The data is loaded into the AD9831 on the rising edge of the WR pulse. This data is then loaded into the destination register on the MCLK rising edge. The WR pulse rising edge should not coincide with the MCLK rising edge as there will be an uncertainty of one MCLK cycle regarding the loading of the destination register with the new data. The WR rising edge should occur before an MCLK rising edge. The data will then be loaded into the destination register on the MCLK rising edge. Alternatively, the WR rising edge can occur after the MCLK rising edge and the destination register will be loaded on the next MCLK rising edge. D0-D15 Data Bus, Digital Inputs for destination registers. A0-A2 Address Digital Inputs. These address bits are used to select the destination register to which the digital data is to be written. PSEL0, PSEL1 Phase Select Input. The AD9831 has four phase registers. These registers can be used to alter the value being input to the SIN ROM. The contents of the phase register can be added to the phase accumulator output, the inputs PSEL0 and PSEL1 selecting the phase register to be used. Like the FSELECT input, PSEL0 and PSEL1 are sampled on the rising MCLK edge. Therefore, these inputs need to be in steady state when an MCLK rising edge occurs or there is an uncertainty of one MCLK cycle as to when control is transferred to the selected phase register. SLEEP Low Power Control, active low digital input. SLEEP puts the AD9831 into a low power mode. Internal clocks are disabled and the DAC's current sources and REFOUT are turned off. The AD9831 is re-enabled by taking SLEEP high. RESET Reset, active low digital input. RESET resets the phase accumulator to zero which corresponds to an analog output of midscale. REV. A -5- AD9831 TERMINOLOGY Integral Nonlinearity This is the maximum deviation of any code from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the transfer function. The endpoints of the transfer function are zero scale, a point 0.5 LSB below the first code transition (000 . . . 00 to 000 . . . 01) and full scale, a point 0.5 LSB above the last code transition (111 . . . 10 to 111 . . . 11). The error is expressed in LSBs. Differential Nonlinearity 2 MHz about the fundamental frequency. The narrow band SFDR gives the attenuation of the largest spur or harmonic in a bandwidth of 50 kHz about the fundamental frequency. Clock Feedthrough There will be feedthrough from the MCLK input to the analog output. Clock feedthrough refers to the magnitude of the MCLK signal relative to the fundamental frequency in the AD9831's output spectrum. Table I. Control Registers This is the difference between the measured and ideal 1 LSB change between two adjacent codes in the DAC. Signal to (Noise + Distortion) Register FREQ0 REG Size 32 Bits Description Frequency Register 0. This defines the output frequency, when FSELECT = 0, as a fraction of the MCLK frequency. Frequency Register 1. This defines the output frequency, when FSELECT = 1, as a fraction of the MCLK frequency. Phase Offset Register 0. When PSEL0 = PSEL1 = 0, the contents of this register are added to the output of the phase accumulator. Phase Offset Register 1. When PSEL0 = 1 and PSEL1 = 0, the contents of this register are added to the output of the phase accumulator. Phase Offset Register 2. When PSEL0 = 0 and PSEL1 = 1, the contents of this register are added to the output of the phase accumulator. Phase Offset Register 3. When PSEL0 = PSEL1 = 1, the contents of this register are added to the output of the phase accumulator. Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is measured signal to noise at the output of the DAC. The signal is the rms magnitude of the fundamental. Noise is the rms sum of all the nonfundamental signals up to half the sampling frequency (fMCLK/2) but excluding the dc component. Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is dependent on the number of quantization levels used in the digitization process; the more levels, the smaller the quantization noise. The theoretical Signal to (Noise + Distortion) ratio for a sine wave input is given by Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = (6.02N + 1.76) dB where N is the number of bits. Thus, for an ideal 10-bit converter, Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = 61.96 dB. Total Harmonic Distortion FREQ1 REG 32 Bits PHASE0 REG 12 Bits PHASE1 REG 12 Bits Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the rms value of the fundamental. For the AD9831, THD is defined as THD = 20 log 2 (V 2 +V 3 2 2 +V 4 +V 5 2 PHASE2 REG 12 Bits +V 6 2 V1 where V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and V2, V3, V4, V5 and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second through the sixth harmonic. Output Compliance PHASE3 REG 12 Bits The output compliance refers to the maximum voltage which can be generated at the output of the DAC to meet the specifications. When voltages greater than that specified for the output compliance are generated, the AD9831 may not meet the specifications listed in the data sheet. Spurious Free Dynamic Range Table II.

The spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) refers to the largest spur or harmonic which is present in the band of interest. The wide band SFDR gives the magnitude of the largest harmonic or spur relative to the magnitude of the fundamental frequency in the bandwidth Table III.

A -9- AD9831 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION Numerical Controlled Oscillator + Phase Modulator The AD9831 provides an exciting new level of integration for the RF/Communications system designer. The AD9831 combines the Numerical Controlled Oscillator (NCO), SINE LookUp Table, Frequency and Phase Modulators, and a Digital-toAnalog Converter on a single integrated circuit. The internal circuitry of the AD9831 consists of three main sections. These are: Numerical Controlled Oscillator (NCO) + Phase Modulator SINE Look-Up Table Digital-to-Analog Converter The AD9831 is a fully integrated Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) chip. The chip requires one reference clock, one low precision resistor and eight decoupling capacitors to provide digitally created sine waves up to 12.5 MHz. In addition to the generation of this RF signal, the chip is fully capable of a broad range of simple and complex modulation schemes. These modulation schemes are fully implemented in the digital domain allowing accurate and simple realization of complex modulation algorithms using DSP techniques. THEORY OF OPERATION This consists of two frequency select registers, a phase accumulator and four phase offset registers. The main component of the NCO is a 32-bit phase accumulator which assembles the phase component of the output signal. Continuous time signals have a phase range of 0 to 2. Outside this range of numbers, the sinusoid functions repeat themselves in a periodic manner. The digital implementation is no different. The accumulator simply scales the range of phase numbers into a multibit digital word. The phase accumulator in the AD9831 is implemented with 32 bits. Therefore, in the AD9831, 2 = 232. Likewise, the Phase term is scaled into this range of numbers 0 < Phase < 232 - 1. Making these substitutions into the equation above f = Phase x fMCLK/232 where 0 < Phase < 232 With a clock signal of 25 MHz and a phase word of 051EB852 hex f = 51EB852 x 25 MHz/232 = 0.500000000465 MHz The input to the phase accumulator (i.e., the phase step) can be selected either from the FREQ0 Register or FREQ1 Register and this is controlled by the FSELECT pin. NCOs inherently generate continuous phase signals, thus avoiding any output discontinuity when switching between frequencies. Following the NCO, a phase offset can be added to perform phase modulation using the 12-bit PHASE Registers. The contents of this register are added to the most significant bits of the NCO. The AD9831 has four PHASE registers, the resolution of these registers being 2/4096. Sine Look-Up Table (LUT) Sine waves are typically thought of in terms of their magnitude form a(t) = sin (t). However, these are nonlinear and not easy to generate except through piece wise construction. On the other hand, the angular information is linear in nature. That is, the phase angle rotates through a fixed angle for each unit of time. The angular rate depends on the frequency of the signal by the traditional rate of = 2f. MAGNITUDE +1 0 -1 PHASE 2 To make the output useful, the signal must be converted from phase information into a sinusoidal value. Since phase information maps directly into amplitude, a ROM LUT converts the phase information into amplitude. To do this, the digital phase information is used to address a sine ROM LUT. Although the NCO contains a 32-bit phase accumulator, the output of the NCO is truncated to 12 bits. Using the full resolution of the phase accumulator is impractical and unnecessary as this would require a look-up table of 232 entries. It is necessary only to have sufficient phase resolution in the LUTs such that the dc error of the output waveform is dominated by the quantization error in the DAC. This requires the look-up table to have two more bits of phase resolution than the 10-bit DAC. Digital-to-Analog Converter 0 Figure 21. Sine Wave Knowing that the phase of a sine wave is linear and given a reference interval (clock period), the phase rotation for that period can be determined. Phase = t Solving for = Phase/t = 2f Solving for f and substituting the reference clock frequency for the reference period (1/fMCLK = t) f = Phase x fMCLK/2 The AD9831 builds the output based on this simple equation. A simple DDS chip can implement this equation with three major subcircuits. The AD9831 includes a high impedance current source 10-bit DAC, capable of driving a wide range of loads at different speeds. Full-scale output current can be adjusted, for optimum power and external load requirements, through the use of a single external resistor (RSET). The DAC is configured for single ended operation. The load resistor can be any value required, as long as the full-scale voltage developed across it does not exceed the voltage compliance range. Since full-scale current is controlled by RSET, adjustments to RSET can balance changes made to the load resistor. However, if the DAC full-scale output current is significantly less than 4 mA, the DAC's linearity may degrade. -10- REV. A AD9831 DSP and MPU Interfacing The AD9831 has a parallel interface, with 16 bits of data being loaded during each write cycle. The frequency or phase registers are loaded by asserting the WR signal. The destination register for the 16 bit data is selected using the address inputs A0, A1 and A2. The phase registers are 12 bits wide so, only the 12 LSBs need to be valid--the 4 MSBs of the 16 bit word do not have to contain valid data. Data is loaded into the AD9831 by pulsing WR low, the data being latched into the AD9831 on the rising edge of WR. The values of inputs A0, A1 and A2 are also latched into the AD9831 on the WR rising edge. The appropriate destination register is updated on the next MCLK rising edge. If the WR rising edge coincides with the MCLK rising edge, there is an uncertainty of one MCLK cycle regarding the loading of the destination register--the destination register may be loaded immediately or the destination register may be updated on the next MCLK rising edge. To avoid any uncertainty, the times listed in the specifications should be complied with. FSELECT, PSEL0 and PSEL1 are sampled on the MCLK rising edge. Again, these inputs should be valid when an MCLK rising edge occurs as there will be an uncertainty of one MCLK cycle introduced otherwise. When these inputs change value, there will be a pipeline delay before control is transferred to the selected register--there will be a pipeline delay before the analog output is controlled by the selected register. There is a similar delay when a new word is written to a register. PSEL0, PSEL1, FSELECT and WR have latencies of six MCLK cycles. The flow chart in Figure 22 shows the operating routine for the AD9831. When the AD9831 is powered up, the part should be reset using RESET. This will reset the phase accumulator to zero so that the analog output is at midscale. RESET does not reset the phase and frequency registers. These registers will contain invalid data and, therefore, should be set to zero by the user. The registers to be used should be loaded, the analog output being fMCLK/232 x FREG where FREG is the value loaded into the selected frequency register. This signal will be phase shifted by the amount specified in the selected phase register (2/4096 x PHASEREG where PHASEREG is the value contained in the selected phase register). When FSELECT, PSEL0 and PSEL1 are programmed, there will be a pipeline delay of approximately 6 MCLK cycles before the analog output reacts to the change on these inputs.

A -11- AD9831 APPLICATIONS The AD9831 contains functions which make it suitable for modulation applications. The part can be used to perform simple modulation such as FSK. More complex modulation schemes such as GMSK and QPSK can also be implemented using the AD9831. In an FSK application, the two frequency registers of the AD9831 are loaded with different values; one frequency will represent the space frequency while the other will represent the mark frequency. The digital data stream is fed to the FSELECT pin which will cause the AD9831 to modulate the carrier frequency between the two values. The AD9831 has four phase registers; this enables the part to perform PSK. With phase shift keying, the carrier frequency is phase shifted, the phase being altered by an amount which is related to the bit stream being input to the modulator. The presence of four shift registers eases the interaction needed between the DSP and the AD9831. The frequency and phase registers can be written to continuously, if required. The maximum update rate equals the frequency of the MCLK. However, if a selected register is loaded with a new word, there will be a delay of 6 MCLK cycles before the analog output will change accordingly. The AD9831 is also suitable for signal generator applications. With its low current consumption, the part is suitable for applications in which it can be used as a local oscillator. In addition, the part is fully specified for operation with a +3.3 V 10% power supply. Therefore, in portable applications where current consumption is an important issue, the AD9831 is perfect. Grounding and Layout device requiring an AGND to DGND connection, then the ground planes should be connected at the AGND and DGND pins of the AD9831. If the AD9831 is in a system where multiple devices require AGND to DGND connections, the connection should be made at one point only, a star ground point that should be established as close as possible to the AD9831. Avoid running digital lines under the device as these will couple noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should be allowed to run under the AD9831 to avoid noise coupling. The power supply lines to the AD9831 should use as large a track as is possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the effects of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching signals such as clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. This will reduce the effects of feedthrough through the board. A microstrip technique is by far the best but is not always possible with a double-sided board. In this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes while signals are placed on the other side. Good decoupling is important. The analog and digital supplies to the AD9831 are independent and separately pinned out to minimize coupling between analog and digital sections of the device. All analog and digital supplies should be decoupled to AGND and DGND respectively with 0.1 F ceramic capacitors in parallel with 10 F tantalum capacitors. To achieve the best from the decoupling capacitors, they should be placed as close as possible to the device, ideally right up against the device. In systems where a common supply is used to drive both the AVDD and DVDD of the AD9831, it is recommended that the system's AVDD supply be used. This supply should have the recommended analog supply decoupling between the AVDD pins of the AD9831 and AGND and the recommended digital supply decoupling capacitors between the DVDD pins and DGND. The printed circuit board that houses the AD9831 should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. This facilitates the use of ground planes which can be separated easily. A minimum etch technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the best shielding. Digital and analog ground planes should only be joined in one place. If the AD9831 is the only -12- REV. A AD9831 AD9831 Evaluation Board Using the AD9831 Evaluation Board The AD9831 Evaluation Board allows designers to evaluate the high performance AD9831 DDS Modulator with a minimum of effort. To prove that this device will meet the user's waveform synthesis requirements, the user only requires a 3.3 V or 5 V power supply, an IBM-compatible PC and a spectrum analyzer along with the evaluation board. The evaluation setup is shown below. The DDS Evaluation kit includes a populated, tested AD9831 printed circuit board along with the software which controls the AD9831 in a Windows environment. IBM COMPATIBLE PC PARALLEL PORT CENTRONICS PRINTER CABLE AD9831.EXE The AD9831 Evaluation kit is a test system designed to simplify the evaluation of the AD9831. Provisions to control the AD9831 from the printer port of an IBM-compatible PC are included along with the necessary software. An application note is also available with the evaluation board which gives information on operating the evaluation board. Prototyping Area An area is available on the evaluation board where the user can add additional circuits to the evaluation test set. Users may want to build custom analog filters for the output or add buffers and operational amplifiers which are to be used in the final application. XO vs. External Clock AD9831 EVALUATION BOARD The AD9831 can operate with master clocks up to 25 MHz. A 25 MHz oscillator is included on the evaluation board. However, this oscillator can be removed and an external CMOS clock connected to the part, if required. Power Supply Figure 23. AD9831 Evaluation Board Setup Power to the AD9831 Evaluation Board must be provided externally through the pin connections. The power leads should be twisted to reduce ground loops. REV.
