ad9834 rev. c | page 14 of 36 terminology integral nonlinearity (inl) inl 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 (dnl) dnl is the difference between the measured and ideal 1 lsb change between two adjacent codes in the dac. a specified dnl of 1 lsb maximum ensures monotonicity. output compliance the output compliance refers to the maximum voltage that can be generated at the output of the dac to meet the specifications. when voltages greater than that specified for the output com- pliance are generated, the ad9834 may not meet the specifications listed in the data sheet. spurious-free dynamic range (sfdr) along with the frequency of interest, harmonics of the fundamental frequency and images of these frequencies are present at the output of a dds device. the sfdr refers to the largest spur or harmonic present in the band of interest. the wideband sfdr gives the magnitude of the largest harmonic or spur relative to the magnitude of the fundamental frequency in the 0 to nyquist bandwidth. the narrow-band sfdr gives the attenuation of the largest spur or harmonic in a bandwidth of 200 khz about the fundamental frequency. total harmonic distortion (thd) thd is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the rms value of the fundamental. for the ad9834, thd is defined as 1 65432 v vvvvv thd 22222 log20 ++++ = where v 1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental and v 2 , v 3 , v 4 , v 5 , and v 6 are the rms amplitudes of the second harmonic through the sixth harmonic. signal-to-noise ratio (snr) snr is the ratio of the rms value of the measured output signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the nyquist frequency. the value for snr is expressed in decibels. clock feedthrough there is 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 output spectrum of the ad9834.
ad9834 rev. c | page 15 of 36 theory of operation 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 piecewise 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 = 2 f . magnitude phase +1 0 ?1 2p 0 2 4 6 2 4 6 02705-025 figure 27. 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 = 2 f solving for f and substituting the reference clock frequency for the reference period (1/ f mclk = t ), f = phase f mclk / 2 the ad9834 builds the output base d on this simple equation. a simple dds chip can implement this equation with three major subcircuits: numerically controlled oscillator + phase modulator, sin rom, and digital-to-analog converter (dac). each of these subcircuits is discussed in the circuit description section.
ad9834 rev. c | page 16 of 36 circuit description the ad9834 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 37.5 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. the internal circuitry of the ad9834 consists of the following main sections: a numerically controlled oscillator (nco), frequency and phase modulators, sin rom, a dac, a comparator, and a regulator. numerically controlled oscillator plus phase modulator this consists of two frequency select registers, a phase accumulator, two phase offset registers, and a phase offset adder. the main component of the nco is a 28-bit phase accumulator. 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 ad9834 is implemented with 28 bits. therefore, in the ad9834, 2 = 2 28 . likewise, the phase term is scaled into this range of numbers: 0 < phase < 2 28 ? 1. making these substitutions into the previous equation f = phase f mclk /2 28 where 0 < phase < 2 28 ? 1. the input to the phase accumulator can be selected either from the freq0 register or freq1 register and is controlled by the fselect pin or the fsel bit. ncos inherently generate con- tinuous 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 one of these phase registers is added to the msbs of the nco. the ad9834 has two phase registers, the resolution of these registers being 2/4096. sin rom to make the output from the nco useful, it must be converted from phase information into a sinusoidal value. phase informa- tion maps directly into amplitude; therefore, the sin rom uses the digital phase information as an address to a look-up table and converts the phase information into amplitude. although the nco contains a 28-bit phase accumulator, the output of the nco is truncated to 12 bits. using the full resolu- tion of the phase accumulator is impractical and unnecessary because it requires a look-up table of 2 28 entries. it is necessary only to have sufficient phase resolution such that the errors due to truncation are smaller than the resolution of the 10-bit dac. this requires the sin rom to have two bits of phase resolution more than the 10-bit dac. the sin rom is enabled using the opbiten and mode bits in the control register. this is explained further in table 18 . digital-to-analog converter (dac) the ad9834 includes a high impedance current source 10-bit dac capable of driving a wide range of loads. the full-scale output current can be adjusted for optimum power and external load requirements using a single external resistor (r set ). the dac can be configured for either single-ended or differential operation. iout and ioutb can be connected through equal external resistors to agnd to develop complementary output voltages. the load resistors can be any value required, as long as the full-scale voltage developed across it does not exceed the voltage compliance range. because full-scale current is controlled by r set , adjustments to r set can balance changes made to the load resistors. comparator the ad9834 can be used to generate synthesized digital clock signals. this is accomplished by using the on-board self-biasing comparator that converts the sinusoidal signal of the dac to a square wave. the output from the dac can be filtered externally before being applied to the comparator input. the comparator reference voltage is the time average of the signal applied to v in . the comparator can accept signals in the range of approximately 100 mv p-p to 1 v p-p. as the comparator input is ac-coupled, to operate correctly as a zero crossing detector, it requires a minimum input frequency of typically 3 mhz. the comparator output is a square wave with an amplitude from 0 v to dvdd.
ad9834 rev. c | page 17 of 36 the ad9834 is a sampled signal with its output following nyquist sampling theorem. specifically, its output spectrum contains the fundamental plus aliased signals (images) that occur at multiples of the reference clock frequency and the selected output frequency. a graphical representation of the sampled spectrum, with aliased images, is shown in figure 28 . the prominence of the aliased images is dependent on the ratio of f out to mclk. if ratio is small, the aliased images are very prominent and of a relatively high energy level as determined by the sin(x)/x roll-off of the quantized dac output. in fact, depending on the f out /reference clock relationship, the first aliased image can be on the order of ?3 db below the fundamental. a low-pass filter is generally placed between the output of the dac and the input of the comparator to further suppress the effects of aliased images. obviously, consideration must be given to the relationship of the selected output frequency and the reference clock frequency to avoid unwanted (and unexpected) output anomalies. to apply the ad9834 as a clock generator, limit the selected output frequency to <33% of reference clock frequency, and thereby avoid generating aliased signals that fall within, or close to, the output band of interest (generally dc- selected output frequency). this practice eases the complexity (and cost) of the external filt er requirement for the clock generator application. refer to the an-837 application note for more information. to enable the comparator, bit sign/pib and bit opbiten in the control resister are set to 1. this is explained further in table 17 . regulator the ad9834 has separate power supplies for the analog and digital sections. avdd provides the power supply required for the analog section, and dvdd provides the power supply for the digital section. both of these supplies can have a value of 2.3 v to 5.5 v and are independent of each other. for example, the analog section can be operated at 5 v, and the digital section can be operated at 3 v, or vice versa. the internal digital section of the ad9834 is operated at 2.5 v. an on-board regulator steps down the voltage applied at dvdd to 2.5 v. the digital interface (serial port) of the ad9834 also operates from dvdd. these digital signals are level shifted within the ad9834 to make them 2.5 v compatible. when the applied voltage at the dvdd pin of the ad9834 is equal to or less than 2.7 v, pin cap/2.5v and pin dvdd should be tied together, thus bypassing the on-board regulator. output voltage compliance the ad9834 has a maximum current density, set by the r set , of 4 ma. the maximum output voltage from the ad9834 is v dd ? 1.5 v. this is to ensure that the output impedance of the internal switch does not change, affecting the spectral performance of the part. for a minimum supply of 2.3 v, the maximum output voltage is 0.8 v. specifications in table 1 are guaranteed with an r set of 6.8 k and an r load of 200 . 02705-040 system clock f out f c ? f out f c + f out 2 f c ? f out 2 f c + f out 3 f c ? f out 3 f c + f out f c 0hz first image second image third image fourth image fifth image sixth image 2 f c 3 f c frequency (hz) signal amplitude sin x/x envelope x = ( f / f c ) figure 28. the dac output spectrum
ad9834 rev. c | page 18 of 36 functional description serial interface the ad9834 has a standard 3-wire serial interface that is com- patible with spi, qspi?, microwire?, and dsp interface standards. data is loaded into the device as a 16-bit word under the control of a serial clock input (sclk). the timing diagram for this operation is given in figure 5 . for a detailed example of programming the ad9833 and ad9834 devices, refer to the an-1070 application note . the fsync input is a level triggered input that acts as a frame synchronization and chip enable. data can only be transferred into the device when fsync is low. to start the serial data transfer, fsync should be taken low, observing the minimum fsync-to-sclk falling edge setup time (t 7 ). after fsync goes low, serial data is shifted into the input shift register of the device on the falling edges of sclk for 16 clock pulses. fsync can be taken high after the 16th falling edge of sclk, observing the minimum sclk falling edge to fsync rising edge time (t 8 ). alternatively, fsync can be kept low for a multiple of 16 sclk pulses and then brought high at the end of the data transfer. in this way, a continuous stream of 16-bit words can be loaded while fsync is held low, with fsync only going high after the 16th sclk falling edge of the last word is loaded. the sclk can be continuous, or alternatively, the sclk can idle high or low between write operations but must be high when fsync goes low (t 12 ). powering up the ad9834 the flow chart in figure 31 shows the operating routine for the ad9834. when the ad9834 is powered up, the part should be reset. this resets appropriate internal registers to 0 to provide an analog output of midscale. to avoid spurious dac outputs during ad9834 initialization, the reset bit/pin should be set to 1 until the part is ready to begin generating an output. reset does not reset the phase, frequency, or control registers. these registers contain invalid data, and, therefore, should be set to a known value by the user. the reset bit/pin should then be set to 0 to begin generating an output. the data appears on the dac output eight mclk cycles after reset is set to 0. latency latency is associated with each operation. when pin fselect and pin pselect change value, there is a pipeline delay before control is transferred to the selected register. when the t 11 and t 11a timing specifications are met (see figure 4 ), fselect and pselect have latencies of eight mclk cycles. when the t 11 and t 11a timing specifications are not met, the latency is increased by one mclk cycle. similarly, there is a latency associated with each asynchronous write operation. if a selected frequency/phase register is loaded with a new word, there is a delay of eight to nine mclk cycles before the analog output changes. there is an uncertainty of one mclk cycle because it depends on the position of the mclk rising edge when the data is loaded into the destination register. the negative transition of the reset and sleep functions are sampled on the internal falling edge of mclk. therefore, they also have a latency associated with them. control register the ad9834 contains a 16-bit control register that sets up the ad9834 as the user wants to operate it. all control bits, except mode, are sampled on the internal negative edge of mclk. table 6 describes the individual bits of the control register. the different functions and the various output options from the ad9834 are described in more detail in the frequency and phase registers section. to inform the ad9834 that the contents of the control register are to be altered, db15 and db14 must be set to 0 as shown in table 5 . table 5. control register db15 db14 db13 . . . db0 0 0 control bits

ad9834 rev. c | page 20 of 36 bit name description db5 opbiten the function of this bit is to control whether there is an outp ut at the sign bit out pin. this bit should remain at 0 if the user is not using the sign bit out pin. opbiten = 1 enables the sign bit out pin. opbiten = 0, the sign bit out output buffer is put into a hi gh impedance state, therefore no output is available at the sign bit out pin. db4 sign/pib the function of this bit is to control what is output at the sign bit out pin. sign/pib = 1, the on-board comparator is connected to si gn bit out. after filtering the sinusoidal output from the dac, the waveform can be applied to the comparator to generate a square waveform. refer to table 17 . sign/pib = 0, the msb (or msb/2) of the dac data is connected to the sign bit out pin. bit div2 controls whether it is the msb or msb/2 that is output. db3 div2 div2 is used in association with sign/pib and opbiten. refer to table 17 . div2 = 1, the digital output is passed directly to the sign bit out pin. div2 = 0, the digital output/2 is passed directly to the sign bit out pin. db2 reserved this bit must always be set to 0. db1 mode the function of this bit is to control what is output at the io ut pin/ioutb pin. this bit should be set to 0 if the control bit opbiten = 1. mode = 1, the sin rom is bypassed, resu lting in a triangle output from the dac. mode = 0, the sin rom is used to convert the phase informat ion into amplitude information, resulting in a sinusoidal signal at the output. see table 18 . db0 reserved this bit must always be set to 0. frequency and phase registers the ad9834 contains two frequency registers and two phase registers. these are described in table 7 . table 7. frequency/phase registers register size description freq0 28 bits frequency register 0. when either the fsel bit or fselect pin = 0, this register defines the output frequency as a fraction of the mclk frequency. freq1 28 bits frequency register 1. when either the fsel bit or fselect pin = 1, this register defines the output frequency as a fraction of the mclk frequency. phase0 12 bits phase offset register 0. when either the psel bit or pselect pin = 0, the contents of this register are added to the output of the phase accumulator. phase1 12 bits phase offset register 1. when either the psel bit or pselect pin = 1, the contents of this register are added to the output of the phase accumulator. the analog output from the ad9834 is f mclk /2 28 freqreg where freqreg is the value loaded into the selected frequency register. this signal is phase shifted by 2/4096 phasereg where phasereg is the value contained in the selected phase register. consideration must be given to the relationship of the selected output frequency and the reference clock frequency to avoid unwanted output anomalies. access to the frequency and phase registers is controlled by both the fselect and pselect pins, and the fsel and psel control bits. if the control bit pin/sw = 1, the pins control the function; whereas, if pin/sw = 0, the bits control the function. this is outlined in table 8 and table 9 . if the fsel and psel bits are used, the pins should be held at cmos logic high or low. control of the frequency/phase registers is interchangeable from the pins to the bits. table 8. selecting a frequency register fselect fsel pin/sw selected register 0 x 1 freq0 reg 1 x 1 freq1 reg x 0 0 freq0 reg x 1 0 freq1 reg table 9. selecting a phase register pselect psel pin/sw selected register 0 x 1 phase0 reg 1 x 1 phase1 reg x 0 0 phase0 reg x 1 0 phase1 reg the fselect pin and pselect pin are sampled on the internal falling edge of mclk. it is recommended that the data on these pins does not change within a time window of the falling edge of mclk (see figure 4 for timing). if fselect or pselect changes value when a falling edge occurs, there is an uncertainty of one mclk cycle because it pertains to when control is transferred to the other frequency/phase register. the flow charts in figure 32 and figure 33 show the routine for selecting and writing to the frequency and phase registers of the ad9834.

ad9834 rev. c | page 23 of 36 applications information because of the various output options available from the part, the ad9834 can be configured to suit a wide variety of applications. one of the areas where the ad9834 is suitable is in 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 ad9834. in an fsk application, the two frequency registers of the ad9834 are loaded with different values. one frequency represents the space frequency, and the other represents the mark frequency. the digital data stream is fed to the fselect pin, causing the ad9834 to modulate the carrier frequency between the two values. the ad9834 has two phase registers, enabling the part to perform psk. with phase shift keying, the carrier frequency is phase shifted, the phase being altered by an amount that is related to the bit stream that is input to the modulator. the ad9834 is also suitable for signal generator applications. with the on-board comparator, the device can be used to generate a square wave. with its low current consumption, the part is suitable for applications where it is used as a local oscillator. change phase? change frequency? no no no no yes no yes yes no yes yes yes yes yes dac output v out = v refout 18 r load /r set (1 + (sin(2 (freqreg f mclk t/2 28 + phasereg/2 12 )))) initialization see figure 32 select data sources see figure 34 wait 8/9 mclk cycles see timing diagram figure 3 change psel/ pselect? change phase register? change dac output from sin to ramp? change output at sign bit out pin? change fsel/ fselect? change frequency register? control register write data write see figure 33 02705-028 figure 31. flow chart for initialization and operation

ad9834 rev. c | page 26 of 36 grounding and layout the printed circuit board (pcb) that houses the ad9834 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 that can easily be separated. a minimum etch technique is generally best for ground planes because it gives the best shielding. digital and analog ground planes should only be joined in one place. if the ad9834 is the only device requiring an agnd-to-dgnd connection, the ground planes should be connected at the agnd and dgnd pins of the ad9834. if the ad9834 is in a system where multiple devices require agnd-to-dgnd connections, the connection should be made at one point only, establishing a star ground point as close as possible to the ad9834. avoid running digital lines under the device because these couple noise onto the die. the analog ground plane should be allowed to run under the ad9834 to avoid noise coupling. the power supply lines to the ad9834 should use as large a track as 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 to reduce the effects of feed- through through the board. a microstrip technique is by far the best, but it is not always possible with a double-sided board. in this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated to ground planes and signals are placed on the other side. good decoupling is important. the analog and digital supplies to the ad9834 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 performance 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 ad9834, it is recommended that the systems avdd supply be used. this supply should have the recommended analog supply decoupling between the avdd pins of the ad9834 and agnd, and the recommended digital supply decoupling capacitors between the dvdd pins and dgnd. proper operation of the comparator requires good layout strategy. the strategy must minimize the parasitic capacitance between vin and the sign bit out pin by adding isolation using a ground plane. for example, in a multilayered board, the vin signal could be connected to the top layer, and the sign bit out could be connected to the bottom layer so that isolation is provided by the power and ground planes between them.
ad9834 rev. c | page 27 of 36 interfacing to microprocessors the ad9834 has a standard serial interface that allows the part to interface directly with several microprocessors. the device uses an external serial clock to write the data/control information into the device. the serial clock can have a frequency of 40 mhz maximum. the serial clock can be continuous, or it can idle high or low between write operations. when data/control information is being written to the ad9834, fsync is taken low and is held low until the 16 bits of data are written into the ad9834. the fsync signal frames the 16 bits of information being loaded into the ad9834. ad9834 to adsp-21xx interface figure 35 shows the serial interface between the ad9834 and the adsp-21xx. the adsp-21xx should be set up to operate in the sport transmit alternate framing mode (tfsw = 1). the adsp-21xx is programmed through the sport control register and should be configured as follows: ? internal clock operation (isclk = 1) ? active low framing (invtfs = 1) ? 16-bit word length (slen = 15) ? internal frame sync signal (itfs = 1) ? generate a frame sync for each write (tfsr = 1) transmission is initiated by writing a word to the tx register after the sport has been enabled. the data is clocked out on each rising edge of the serial clock and clocked into the ad9834 on the sclk falling edge. 1 additional pins omitted for clarity. ad9834 1 fsync sdata sclk tfs dt sclk adsp-21xx 1 02705-032 figure 35. adsp-21xx to ad9834 interface ad9834 to 68hc11/68l11 interface figure 36 shows the serial interface between the ad9834 and the 68hc11/68l11 microcontroller. the microcontroller is configured as the master by setting bit mstr in the spcr to 1, providing a serial clock on sck while the mosi output drives the serial data line sdata. because the microcontroller does not have a dedicated frame sync pin, the fsync signal is derived from a port line (pc7). the setup conditions for correct operation of the interface are as follows: ? sck idles high between write operations (cpol = 0) ? data is valid on the sck falling edge (cpha = 1) when data is being transmitted to the ad9834, the fsync line is taken low (pc7). serial data from the 68hc11/68l11 is transmitted in 8-bit bytes with only eight falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. data is transmitted msb first. to load data into the ad9834, pc7 is held low after the first eight bits are transferred and a second serial write operation is performed to the ad9834. only after the second eight bits have been transferred should fsync be taken high again. 1 additional pins omitted for clarity. ad9834 1 fsync sdata sclk 68hc11/68l11 1 pc7 mosi sck 02705-033 figure 36. 68hc11/68l11 to ad9834 interface
