PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD9765 is a dual port, high speed, two channel, 12-bit
CMOS DAC. It integrates two high quality 12-bit TxDAC+
cores, a voltage reference and digital interface circuitry into a small
48-lead LQFP package. The AD9765 offers exceptional ac and
dc performance while supporting update rates up to 125 MSPS.
The AD9765 has been optimized for processing I and Q data in
communications applications. The digital interface consists of
two double-buffered latches as well as control logic. Separate
write inputs allow data to be written to the two DAC ports
independent of one another. Separate clocks control the update
rate of the DACs.
A mode control pin allows the AD9765 to interface to two separate
data ports, or to a single interleaved high speed data port. In inter-
leaving mode the input data stream is demuxed into its original
I and Q data and then latched. The I and Q data is then con-
verted by the two DACs and updated at half the input data rate.
The GAINCTRL pin allows two modes for setting the full-scale
current (I
OUTFS
) of the two DACs. I
OUTFS
for each DAC can be
set independently using two external resistors, or I
OUTFS
for both
DACs can be set by using a single external resistor.
2
The DACs utilize a segmented current source architecture com-
bined with a proprietary switching technique to reduce glitch
energy and to maximize dynamic accuracy. Each DAC provides
differential current output thus supporting single-ended or dif-
ferential applications. Both DACs can be simultaneously updated
and provide a nominal full-scale current of 20 mA. The full-
scale currents between each DAC are matched to within 0.1%.
The AD9765 is manufactured on an advanced low cost CMOS
process. It operates from a single supply of 3.0 V to 5.0 V and
consumes 380 mW of power.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD9765 is a member of a pin-compatible family of dual
TxDACs providing 8-, 10-, 12-, and 14-bit resolution.
2. Dual 12-Bit, 125 MSPS DACs: A pair of high performance
DACs optimized for low distortion performance provide for
flexible transmission of I and Q information.
3. Matching: Gain matching is typically 0.1% of full scale, and
offset error is better than 0.02%.
4. Low Power: Complete CMOS Dual DAC function operates
on 380 mW from a 3.0 V to 5.0 V single supply. The DAC
full-scale current can be reduced for lower power operation,
and a sleep mode is provided for low power idle periods.
5. On-Chip Voltage Reference: The AD9765 includes a 1.20 V
temperature-compensated bandgap voltage reference.
6. Dual 12-Bit Inputs: The AD9765 features a flexible dual-
port interface allowing dual or interleaved input data.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATIONS
Linearity Error (Also Called Integral Nonlinearity or INL)
Linearity error is defined as the maximum deviation of the
actual analog output from the ideal output, determined by a
straight line drawn from zero to full scale.
Differential Nonlinearity (or DNL)
DNL is the measure of the variation in analog value, normalized
to full scale, associated with a 1 LSB change in digital input
code.
Monotonicity
A D/A converter is monotonic if the output either increases or
remains constant as the digital input increases.
Offset Error
The deviation of the output current from the ideal of zero is
called offset error. For I
OUTA
, 0 mA output is expected when the
inputs are all 0s. For I
OUTB
, 0 mA output is expected when all
inputs are set to 1s.
Gain Error
The difference between the actual and ideal output span. The
actual span is determined by the output when all inputs are set
to 1s minus the output when all inputs are set to 0s.
Output Compliance Range
The range of allowable voltage at the output of a current-output
DAC. Operation beyond the maximum compliance limits may
cause either output stage saturation or breakdown resulting in
nonlinear performance.
Temperature Drift
Temperature drift is specified as the maximum change from the
ambient (+25°C) value to the value at either T
MIN
or T
MAX
. For
offset and gain drift, the drift is reported in ppm of full-scale
range (FSR) per degree C. For reference drift, the drift is
reported in ppm per degree C.
Power Supply Rejection
The maximum change in the full-scale output as the supplies
are varied from nominal to minimum and maximum specified
voltages.
Settling Time
The time required for the output to reach and remain within a
specified error band about its final value, measured from the
start of the output transition.
Glitch Impulse
Asymmetrical switching times in a DAC give rise to undesired
output transients that are quantified by a glitch impulse. It is
specified as the net area of the glitch in pV-s.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
The difference, in dB, between the rms amplitude of the output
signal and the peak spurious signal over the specified bandwidth.
Total Harmonic Distortion
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic
components to the rms value of the measured input signal. It is
expressed as a percentage or in decibels (dB).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Figure 20 shows a simplified block diagram of the AD9765.
The AD9765 consists of two DACs, each one with its own
independent digital control logic and full-scale output current
control. Each DAC contains a PMOS current source array
capable of providing up to 20 mA of full-scale current (I
OUTFS
).
The array is divided into 31 equal currents that make up the five
most significant bits (MSBs). The next four bits, or middle bits,
consist of 15 equal current sources whose value is 1/16th of an
MSB current source. The remaining LSB is a binary weighted
fraction of the middle bit current sources. Implementing the
middle and lower bits with current sources, instead of an R-2R
ladder, enhances the dynamic performance for multitone or low
amplitude signals and helps maintain the DAC’s high output
impedance (i.e., >100 k).
All of these current sources are switched to one or the other of
the two output nodes (i.e., I
OUTA
or I
OUTB
) via PMOS differen-
tial current switches. The switches are based on a new architec-
ture that drastically improves distortion performance. This new
switch architecture reduces various timing errors and provides
matching complementary drive signals to the inputs of the dif-
ferential current switches.
The analog and digital sections of the AD9765 have separate
power supply inputs (i.e., AVDD and DVDD) that can operate
independently over a 3 V to 5.5 V range. The digital section,
which is capable of operating up to a 125 MSPS clock rate,
consists of edge-triggered latches and segment decoding logic
circuitry. The analog section includes the PMOS current sources,
the associated differential switches, a 1.20 V bandgap voltage
reference and two reference control amplifiers.
The full-scale output current of each DAC is regulated by sepa-
rate reference control amplifiers and can be set from 2 mA to
20 mA via an external resistor, R
SET
, connected to the Full
Scale Adjust (FSADJ) pin. The external resistor, in combination
with both the reference control amplifier and voltage reference
V
REFIO
, sets the reference current I
REF
, which is replicated to the
segmented current sources with the proper scaling factor. The
full-scale current, I
OUTFS
, is 32 × I
REF
.

REFERENCE OPERATION
The AD9765 contains an internal 1.20 V bandgap reference.
This can easily be overridden by an external reference with no
effect on performance. REFIO serves as either an input or out-
put, depending on whether the internal or an external reference
is used. To use the internal reference, simply decouple the
REFIO pin to ACOM with a 0.1 µF capacitor. The internal
reference voltage will be present at REFIO. If the voltage at
REFIO is to be used elsewhere in the circuit, an external buffer
amplifier with an input bias current of less than 100 nA should
be used. An example of the use of the internal reference is
shown in Figure 21.

An external reference can be applied to REFIO as shown in

a varying reference voltage for gain control. Note that the 0.1 µF
compensation capacitor is not required since the internal refer-
ence is overridden, and the relatively high input impedance of
REFIO minimizes any loading of the external reference.

MASTER/SLAVE RESISTOR MODE, GAINCTRL
The AD9765 allows the gain of each channel to be indepen-
dently set by connecting one R
SET
resistor to FSADJ1 and
another R
SET
resistor to FSADJ2. To add flexibility and reduce
system cost, a single R
SET
resistor can be used to set the gain of
both channels simultaneously.
When GAINCTRL is low (i.e., connected to AGND), the inde-
pendent channel gain control mode using two resistors is enabled.
In this mode, individual R
SET
resistors should be connected to
FSADJ1 and FSADJ2. When GAINCTRL is high (i.e., con-
nected to AVDD), the master/slave channel gain control mode
using one resistor is enabled. In this mode, a single R
SET
resistor
is connected to FSADJ1 and the resistor on FSADJ2 must be
removed.
NOTE: Only parts with date code of 9930 or later have the
Master/Slave GAINCTRL function. For parts with a date code
before 9930, Pin 42 must be connected to AGND, and the part
will operate in the two resistor, independent gain control mode.
REFERENCE CONTROL AMPLIFIER
Both of the DACs in the AD9765 contain a control amplifier
that is used to regulate the full-scale output current, I
OUTFS
.
The control amplifier is configured as a V-I converter as shown
in Figure 21, so that its current output, I
REF
, is determined
by the ratio of the V
REFIO
and an external resistor, R
SET
, as
stated in Equation 4. I
REF
is copied to the segmented current
sources with the proper scale factor to set I
OUTFS
as stated in
Equation 3.
The control amplifier allows a wide (10:1) adjustment span of
I
OUTFS
from 2 mA to 20 mA by setting I
REF
between 62.5 µA
and 625 µA. The wide adjustment range of I
OUTFS
provides
several benefits. The first relates directly to the power dissipa-
tion of the AD9765, which is proportional to I
OUTFS
(refer to
the Power Dissipation section). The second relates to the 20 dB
adjustment, which is useful for system gain control purposes.
The small signal bandwidth of the reference control amplifier is
approximately 500 kHz and can be used for low frequency,
small signal multiplying applications.
DAC TRANSFER FUNCTION
Both DACs in the AD9765 provide complementary current
outputs, I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
. I
OUTA
will provide a near full-scale
current output, I
OUTFS
, when all bits are high (i.e., DAC CODE
= 4095) while I
OUTB
, the complementary output, provides no
current. The current output appearing at I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
is a function of both the input code and I
OUTFS
and can be
expressed as:
I
OUTA
= (DAC CODE/4096) × I
OUTFS
(1)
I
OUTB
= (4095 – DAC CODE/4096) × I
OUTFS
(2)
where DAC CODE = 0 to 4095 (i.e., Decimal Representation).
As previously mentioned, I
OUTFS
is a function of the reference
current I
REF
, which is nominally set by a reference voltage,
V
REFIO
and external resistor R
SET
. It can be expressed as:
I
OUTFS
= 32 × I
REF
(3)
where
I
REF
= V
REFIO
/R
SET
(4)
The two current outputs will typically drive a resistive load
directly or via a transformer. If dc coupling is required, I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
should be directly connected to matching resistive
loads, R
LOAD
, that are tied to analog common, ACOM. Note,
R
LOAD
may represent the equivalent load resistance seen by
I
OUTA
or I
OUTB
as would be the case in a doubly terminated 50
or 75 cable. The single-ended voltage output appearing at
the I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
nodes is simply:
V
OUTA
= I
OUTA
× R
LOAD
(5)
V
OUTB
= I
OUTB

(6)
Note the full-scale value of V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
should not exceed
the specified output compliance range to maintain specified
distortion and linearity performance.

Substituting the values of I

can be
expressed as:

(8)
These last two equations highlight some of the advantages of
operating the AD9765 differentially. First, the differential
operation will help cancel common-mode error sources asso-
ciated with I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
such as noise, distortion and dc
offsets. Second, the differential code-dependent current and
subsequent voltage, V
DIFF
, is twice the value of the single-ended
voltage output (i.e., V
OUTA
or V
OUTB
), thus providing twice the
signal power to the load.
Note, the gain drift temperature performance for a single-ended
(V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
) or differential output (V
DIFF
) of the AD9765
can be enhanced by selecting temperature tracking resistors for
R
LOAD
and R
SET
due to their ratiometric relationship as shown in
Equation 8.
ANALOG OUTPUTS
The complementary current outputs in each DAC, I
OUTA
and
I
OUTB
, may be configured for single-ended or differential operation.
I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
can be converted into complementary single-
ended voltage outputs, V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
, via a load resistor,
R
LOAD
, as described in the DAC Transfer Function section by
Equations 5 through 8. The differential voltage, V
DIFF
, existing
between V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
can also be converted to a single-ended
voltage via a transformer or differential amplifier configuration.
The ac performance of the AD9765 is optimum and specified
using a differential transformer coupled output in which the
voltage swing at I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
is limited to ±0.5 V. If a single-
ended unipolar output is desirable, I
OUTA
should be selected.
The distortion and noise performance of the AD9765 can be
enhanced when it is configured for differential operation. The
common-mode error sources of both I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
can be
significantly reduced by the common-mode rejection of a trans-
former or differential amplifier. These common-mode error
sources include even-order distortion products and noise. The
enhancement in distortion performance becomes more signifi-
cant as the frequency content of the reconstructed waveform
increases. This is due to the first order cancellation of various
dynamic common-mode distortion mechanisms, digital feed-
through and noise.
REV. B
AD9765
–11–
Performing a differential-to-single-ended conversion via a trans-
former also provides the ability to deliver twice the reconstructed
signal power to the load (i.e., assuming no source termination).
Since the output currents of I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
are complemen-
tary, they become additive when processed differentially. A
properly selected transformer will allow the AD9765 to provide
the required power and voltage levels to different loads.
The output impedance of I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
is determined by the
equivalent parallel combination of the PMOS switches associ-
ated with the current sources and is typically 100 k in parallel
with 5 pF. It is also slightly dependent on the output voltage
(i.e., V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
) due to the nature of a PMOS device.
As a result, maintaining I
OUTA
and/or I
OUTB
at a virtual ground
via an I-V op amp configuration will result in the optimum dc
linearity. Note the INL/DNL specifications for the AD9765 are
measured with I
OUTA
maintained at a virtual ground via an
op amp.
I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
also have a negative and positive voltage com-
pliance range that must be adhered to in order to achieve opti-
mum performance. The negative output compliance range of
–1.0 V is set by the breakdown limits of the CMOS process.
Operation beyond this maximum limit may result in a break-
down of the output stage and affect the reliability of the AD9765.
The positive output compliance range is slightly dependent on
the full-scale output current, I
OUTFS
. It degrades slightly from
its nominal 1.25 V for an I
OUTFS
= 20 mA to 1.00 V for an
I
OUTFS
= 2 mA. The optimum distortion performance for a
single-ended or differential output is achieved when the maxi-
mum full-scale signal at I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
does not exceed 0.5 V.
Applications requiring the AD9765’s output (i.e., V
OUTA
and/or
V
OUTB
) to extend its output compliance range should size R
LOAD
accordingly. Operation beyond this compliance range will ad-
versely affect the AD9765’s linearity performance and subse-
quently degrade its distortion performance.
DIGITAL INPUTS
The AD9765’s digital inputs consist of two independent chan-
nels. For the dual port mode, each DAC has its own dedicated
12-bit data port, WRT line and CLK line. In the interleaved
timing mode, the function of the digital control pins changes as
described in the Interleaved Mode Timing section. The 12-bit
parallel data inputs follow straight binary coding where DB11 is
the Most Significant Bit (MSB) and DB0 is the Least Signifi-
cant Bit (LSB). I
OUTA
produces a full-scale output current
when all data bits are at Logic 1. I
OUTB
produces a complemen-
tary output with the full-scale current split between the two
outputs as a function of the input code.
The digital interface is implemented using an edge-triggered
master slave latch. The DAC outputs are updated following
either the rising edge, or every other rising edge of the clock,
depending on whether dual or interleaved mode is being used.
The DAC outputs are designed to support a clock rate as high
as 125 MSPS. The clock can be operated at any duty cycle that
meets the specified latch pulsewidth. The setup and hold times
can also be varied within the clock cycle as long as the specified
minimum times are met, although the location of these transi-
tion edges may affect digital feedthrough and distortion perfor-
mance. Best performance is typically achieved when the input
data transitions on the falling edge of a 50% duty cycle clock.
DAC TIMING
The AD9765 can operate in two timing modes, dual and inter-
leaved, which are described below. The block diagram in Figure
25 represents the latch architecture in the interleaved timing mode.
DUAL PORT MODE TIMING
When the mode pin is at Logic 1, the AD9765 operates in dual
port mode. The AD9765 functions as two distinct DACs. Each
DAC has its own completely independent digital input and con-
trol lines.
The AD9765 features a double buffered data path. Data enters
the device through the channel input latches. This data is then
transferred to the DAC latch in each signal path. Once the data
is loaded into the DAC latch, the analog output will settle to its
new value.
For general consideration, the WRT lines control the channel
input latches and the CLK lines control the DAC latches. Both
sets of latches are updated on the rising edge of their respective
control signals.
The rising edge of CLK should occur before or simultaneously
with the rising edge of WRT. Should the rising edge of CLK
occur after the rising edge of WRT, a 2 ns minimum delay should
be maintained from the rising edge of WRT to the rising edge
of CLK.
Timing specifications for dual port mode are given in Figures 23
and 24.

INTERLEAVED MODE TIMING
For the following section, refer to Figure 25.
When the mode pin is at Logic 0, the AD9765 operates in inter-
leaved mode. WRT1 now functions as IQWRT and CLK1
functions as IQCLK. WRT2 functions as IQSEL and CLK2
functions as IQRESET.
Data enters the device on the rising edge of IQWRT. The logic
level of IQSEL will steer the data to either Channel Latch 1
(IQSEL = 1) or to Channel Latch 2 (IQSEL = 0). For proper
operation, IQSEL should only change state when IQWRT and
IQCLK are low.
When IQRESET is high, IQCLK is disabled. When IQRESET
goes low, the following rising edge on IQCLK will update both
DAC latches with the data present at their inputs. In the inter-
leaved mode IQCLK is divided by 2 internally. Following this
first rising edge, the DAC latches will only be updated on every
other rising edge of IQCLK. In this way, IQRESET can be used
to synchronize the routing of the data to the DACs.
As with the dual port mode, IQCLK should occur before or
simultaneously with IQWRT.

The internal digital circuitry of the AD9765 is capable of
operating over a digital supply range of 3 V to 5.5 V. As a
result, the digital inputs can also accommodate TTL levels
when DVDD is set to accommodate the maximum high level
voltage of the TTL drivers V
OH
(MAX). A DVDD of 3 V to
3.3 V will typically ensure proper compatibility with most
TTL logic families. Figure 28 shows the equivalent digital
input circuit for the data and clock inputs. The sleep mode
input is similar with the exception that it contains an active
pull-down circuit, thus ensuring that the AD9765 remains
enabled if this input is left disconnected.
Since the AD9765 is capable of being updated up to 125 MSPS,
the quality of the clock and data input signals are important in
achieving the optimum performance. Operating the AD9765
with reduced logic swings and a corresponding digital supply
(DVDD) will result in the lowest data feedthrough and on-chip
digital noise. The drivers of the digital data interface circuitry
should be specified to meet the minimum setup and hold times
of the AD9765 as well as its required min/max input logic level
thresholds.
Digital signal paths should be kept short and run lengths matched
to avoid propagation delay mismatch. The insertion of a low
value resistor network (i.e., 20 to 100 ) between the AD9765
digital inputs and driver outputs may be helpful in reducing any
overshooting and ringing at the digital inputs that contribute to
digital feedthrough. For longer board traces and high data up-
date rates, stripline techniques with proper impedance and
termination resistors should be considered to maintain “clean”
digital inputs.
The external clock driver circuitry should provide the AD9765
with a low jitter clock input meeting the min/max logic levels
while providing fast edges. Fast clock edges will help minimize
any jitter that will manifest itself as phase noise on a recon-
structed waveform. Thus, the clock input should be driven by
the fastest logic family suitable for the application.
REV. B
AD9765
–13–
Note that the clock input could also be driven via a sine wave,
which is centered around the digital threshold (i.e., DVDD/2)
and meets the min/max logic threshold. This will typically result
in a slight degradation in the phase noise, which becomes more
noticeable at higher sampling rates and output frequencies.
Also, at higher sampling rates, the 20% tolerance of the digital
logic threshold should be considered since it will affect the effec-
tive clock duty cycle and, subsequently, cut into the required
data setup and hold times.

INPUT CLOCK AND DATA TIMING RELATIONSHIP
SNR in a DAC is dependent on the relationship between the
position of the clock edges and the point in time at which the
input data changes. The AD9765 is rising edge triggered, and so
exhibits SNR sensitivity when the data transition is close to this
edge. In general, the goal when applying the AD9765 is to make
the data transition close to the falling clock edge. This becomes
more important as the sample rate increases. Figure 29 shows
the relationship of SNR to clock placement with different sample
rates. Note that at the lower sample rates, much more tolerance
is allowed in clock placement, while much more care must be
taken at higher rates.

SLEEP MODE OPERATION
The AD9765 has a power-down function that turns off the output
current and reduces the supply current to less than 8.5 mA
over the specified supply range of 3.0 V to 5.5 V and tempera-
ture range. This mode can be activated by applying a Logic
Level “1” to the SLEEP pin. The SLEEP pin logic threshold is
equal to 0.5 × AVDD. This digital input also contains an active
pull-down circuit that ensures the AD9765 remains enabled if
this input is left disconnected. The AD9765 takes less than
50 ns to power down and approximately 5 µs to power back up.
POWER DISSIPATION
The power dissipation, P
D
, of the AD9765 is dependent on
several factors that include: (1) The power supply voltages
(AVDD and DVDD), (2) the full-scale current output I
OUTFS
,
(3) the update rate f
CLOCK
, (4) and the reconstructed digital
input waveform. The power dissipation is directly proportional
to the analog supply current, I
AVDD
, and the digital supply cur-
rent, I
DVDD
. I
AVDD
is directly proportional to I

Output Configurations
The following sections illustrate some typical output configura-
tions for the AD9765. Unless otherwise noted, it is assumed
that I
OUTFS
is set to a nominal 20 mA. For applications requir-
ing the optimum dynamic performance, a differential output
configuration is suggested. A differential output configuration
may consist of either an RF transformer or a differential op
amp configuration. The transformer configuration provides the
optimum high frequency performance and is recommended for
any application allowing for ac coupling. The differential op
amp configuration is suitable for applications requiring dc
coupling, a bipolar output, signal gain and/or level-shifting, within
the bandwidth of the chosen op amp.
A single-ended output is suitable for applications requiring a
unipolar voltage output. A positive unipolar output voltage will
result if I
OUTA
and/or I
OUTB
is connected to an appropriately-
sized load resistor, R
LOAD
, referred to ACOM. This configura-
tion may be more suitable for a single-supply system requir-
ing a dc coupled, ground referred output voltage. Alternatively,
an amplifier could be configured as an I-V converter, thus
converting I
OUTA
or I
OUTB
into a negative unipolar voltage. This
configuration provides the best dc linearity since I
OUTA
or I
OUTB
is maintained at a virtual ground. Note that I
OUTA
provides
slightly better performance than I
OUTB
.
DIFFERENTIAL COUPLING USING A TRANSFORMER
An RF transformer can be used to perform a differential-to-
single-ended signal conversion as shown in Figure 33. A
differentially coupled transformer output provides the opti-
mum distortion performance for output signals whose spectral
content lies within the transformer’s passband. An RF trans-
former such as the Mini-Circuits T1-1T provides excellent
rejection of common-mode distortion (i.e., even-order harmon-
ics) and noise over a wide frequency range. It also provides
electrical isolation and the ability to deliver twice the power to
the load. Transformers with different impedance ratios may also
be used for impedance matching purposes. Note that the trans-
former provides ac coupling only.

The center tap on the primary side of the transformer must be

ing at I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
(i.e., V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
) swing symmetri-
cally around ACOM and should be maintained with the specified
output compliance range of the AD9765. A differential resistor,
R
DIFF
, may be inserted in applications where the output of the
transformer is connected to the load, R
LOAD
, via a passive recon-
struction filter or cable. R
DIFF
is determined by the transformer’s
impedance ratio and provides the proper source termination
that results in a low VSWR. Note that approximately half the
signal power will be dissipated across R
DIFF
.
DIFFERENTIAL COUPLING USING AN OP AMP
An op amp can also be used to perform a differential-to-single-
ended conversion as shown in Figure 34. The AD9765 is con-
figured with two equal load resistors, R
LOAD
, of 25 . The
differential voltage developed across I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
is con-
verted to a single-ended signal via the differential op amp con-
figuration. An optional capacitor can be installed across I
OUTA
and I
OUTB
, forming a real pole in a low-pass filter. The addition
of this capacitor also enhances the op amps distortion perfor-
mance by preventing the DACs high slewing output from over-
loading the op amp’s input.
The common-mode rejection of this configuration is typically
determined by the resistor matching. In this circuit, the differ-
ential op amp circuit using the AD8047 is configured to provide
some additional signal gain. The op amp must operate from a
dual supply since its output is approximately ±1.0 V. A high
speed amplifier capable of preserving the differential perfor-
mance of the AD9765 while meeting other system level ob-
jectives (i.e., cost, power) should be selected. The op amp’s
differential gain, its gain setting resistor values, and full-scale
output swing capabilities should all be considered when opti-
mizing this circuit.

The differential circuit shown in Figure 35 provides the neces-

case AVDD, which is the positive analog supply for both the

ential output of the AD9765 to midsupply (i.e., AVDD/2). The
AD8055 is a suitable op amp for this application.

Figure 36 shows the AD9765 configured to provide a unipolar
output range of approximately 0 V to +0.5 V for a doubly ter-
minated 50 cable since the nominal full-scale current, I

of 20 mA flows through the equivalent R

sideration in this mode is the integral nonlinearity (INL) as
discussed in the Analog Output section of this data sheet. For
optimum INL performance, the single-ended, buffered voltage
output configuration is suggested.

Figure 37 shows a buffered single-ended output configuration
in which the op amp U1 performs an I-V conversion on the
AD9765 output current. U1 maintains I
OUTA
(or I
OUTB
) at a
virtual ground, thus minimizing the nonlinear output imped-
ance effect on the DAC’s INL performance as discussed in
the Analog Output section. Although this single-ended con-
figuration typically provides the best dc linearity perform-
ance, its ac distortion performance at higher DAC update
rates may be limited by U1’s slewing capabilities. U1 pro-
vides a negative unipolar output voltage and its full-scale
output voltage is simply the product of R
FB
and I
OUTFS
. The
full-scale output should be set within U1’s voltage output
swing capabilities by scaling I

ment in ac distortion performance may result with a reduced

POWER AND GROUNDING CONSIDERATIONS, POWER
SUPPLY REJECTION
Many applications seek high speed and high performance under
less than ideal operating conditions. In these application cir-
cuits, the implementation and construction of the printed circuit
board is as important as the circuit design. Proper RF tech-
niques must be used for device selection, placement and rout-
ing, as well as power supply bypassing and grounding to ensure
optimum performance. Figures 45 to 52 illustrate the recom-
mended printed circuit board ground, power and signal plane
layouts which are implemented on the AD9765 evaluation board.
One factor that can measurably affect system performance is the
ability of the DAC output to reject dc variations or ac noise
superimposed on the analog or digital dc power distribution.
This is referred to as the Power Supply Rejection Ratio. For dc
variations of the power supply, the resulting performance of the
DAC directly corresponds to a gain error associated with the
DAC’s full-scale current, I
OUTFS
. AC noise on the dc supplies is
common in applications where the power distribution is gener-
ated by a switching power supply. Typically, switching power
supply noise will occur over the spectrum from tens of kHz to
several MHz. The PSRR vs. frequency of the AD9765 AVDD
supply over this frequency range is shown in Figure 38.

Note that the units in Figure 38 are given in units of (amps out/
volts in). Noise on the analog power supply has the effect of
modulating the internal current sources, and therefore the out-
put current. The voltage noise on AVDD, therefore, will be
added in a nonlinear manner to the desired I
OUT
. PSRR is very
code dependent thus producing mixing effects which can modu-
late low frequency power supply noise to higher frequencies.
Worst case PSRR for either one of the differential DAC outputs
will occur when the full-scale current is directed towards that
output. As a result, the PSRR measurement in Figure 38 repre-
sents a worst case condition in which the digital inputs remain
static and the full-scale output current of 20 mA is directed to
the DAC output being measured.
An example serves to illustrate the effect of supply noise on the
analog supply. Suppose a switching regulator with a switching
frequency of 250 kHz produces 10 mV of noise and, for simplic-
ity sake (i.e., ignore harmonics), all of this noise is concentrated
at 250 kHz. To calculate how much of this undesired noise will
appear as current noise superimposed on the DAC’s full-scale
current, I
OUTFS
, one must determine the PSRR in dB using
Figure 38 at 250 kHz. To calculate the PSRR for a given R
LOAD
,
such that the units of PSRR are converted from A/V to V/V,
adjust the curve in Figure 38 by the scaling factor 20 × Log
(R
LOAD
). For instance, if R
LOAD
is 50 , the PSRR is reduced
by 34 dB (i.e., PSRR of the DAC at 250 kHz, which is 85 dB in
Figure 38, becomes 51 dB V
OUT
/V
IN
).
Proper grounding and decoupling should be a primary objective
in any high speed, high resolution system. The AD9765 features
separate analog and digital supply and ground pins to optimize
the management of analog and digital ground currents in a
system. In general, AVDD, the analog supply, should be de-
coupled to ACOM, the analog common, as close to the chip as
physically possible. Similarly, DVDD, the digital supply, should
be decoupled to DCOM as close to the chip as physically possible.
For those applications that require a single +5 V or +3 V supply
for both the analog and digital supplies, a clean analog supply
may be generated using the circuit shown in Figure 39. The
circuit consists of a differential LC filter with separate power
supply and return lines. Lower noise can be attained by using
low ESR type electrolytic and tantalum capacitors.

APPLICATIONS
VDSL Applications Using the AD9765
Very High Frequency Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL) technol-
ogy is growing rapidly in applications requiring data transfer
over relatively short distances. By using QAM modulation and
transmitting the data in Discrete Multiple Tones (DMT), high
data rates can be achieved.
As with other multitone applications, each VDSL tone is ca-
pable of transmitting a given number of bits, depending on the
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in a narrow band around that tone.
For a typical VDSL application, the tones are evenly spaced
over the range of several kHz to 10 MHz. At the high frequency
end of this range, performance is generally limited by cable
characteristics and environmental factors, such as external inter-
ferers. Performance at the lower frequencies is much more de-
pendent on the performance of the components in the signal
chain. In addition to in-band noise, intermodulation from other
tones can also potentially interfere with the data recovery for a
given tone. The two graphs in Figure 40 represent a 500-tone
missing bin test vector, with frequencies evenly spaced from
400 Hz to 10 MHz. This test is very commonly done to deter-
mine if distortion will limit the number of bits that can be trans-
mitted in a tone. The test vector has a series of missing tones
around 750 kHz, which is represented in Figure 40a, and a
series of missing tones around 5 MHz, which is represented in
Figure 40b. In both cases, the spurious free dynamic range
(SFDR) between the transmitted tones and the empty bins is
greater than 60 dB.

Using the AD9765 for Quadrature Amplitude Modulation
QAM is one of the most widely used digital modulation schemes
in digital communications systems. This modulation technique
can be found in FDM as well as spread spectrum (i.e., CDMA)
based systems. A QAM signal is a carrier frequency that is
modulated in both amplitude (i.e., AM modulation) and phase
(i.e., PM modulation). It can be generated by independently
modulating two carriers of identical frequency but with a 90°
phase difference. This results in an in-phase (I) carrier compo-
nent and a quadrature (Q) carrier component at a 90° phase
shift with respect to the I component. The I and Q components
are then summed to provide a QAM signal at the specified car-
rier frequency.
A common and traditional implementation of a QAM modula-
tor is shown in Figure 41. The modulation is performed in the
analog domain in which two DACs are used to generate the
baseband I and Q components. Each component is then typi-
cally applied to a Nyquist filter before being applied to a
quadrature mixer. The matching Nyquist filters shape and limit
each component’s spectral envelope while minimizing inter-
symbol interference. The DAC is typically updated at the QAM
symbol rate or possibly a multiple of it if an interpolating filter
precedes the DAC. The use of an interpolating filter typically
eases the implementation and complexity of the analog filter,
which can be a significant contributor to mismatches in gain and
phase between the two baseband channels. A quadrature mixer
modulates the I and Q components with the in-phase and
quadrature carrier frequency and then sums the two outputs to
provide the QAM signal.

In this implementation, it is much more difficult to maintain
proper gain and phase matching between the I and Q channels.
The circuit implementation shown in Figure 42 helps improve
upon the matching between the I and Q channels, as well as
showing a path for up-conversion using the AD8346 quadrature
modulator. The AD9765 provides both I and Q DACs as well
as a common reference that will improve the gain matching and
stability. R
CAL
can be used to compensate for any mismatch in
gain between the two channels. The mismatch may be attrib-
uted to the mismatch between R

and R

, effective load
resistance of each channel, and/or the voltage offset of the con-
trol amplifier in each DAC. The differential voltage outputs of
both DACs in the AD9765 are fed into the respective differen-
tial inputs of the AD8346 via matching networks.

I and Q digital data can be fed into the AD9765 in two different
ways. In dual port mode, The digital I information drives one
input port, while the digital Q information drives the other input
port. If no interpolation filter precedes the DAC, the symbol
rate will be the rate at which the system clock drives the CLK
and WRT pins on the AD9765. In interleaved mode, the digital
input stream at Port 1 contains the I and the Q information in
alternating digital words. Using IQSEL and IQRESET, the
AD9765 can be synchronized to the I and Q data stream. The
internal timing of the AD9765 routes the selected I and Q data
to the correct DAC output. In interleaved mode, if no interpola-
tion filter precedes the AD9765, the symbol rate will be half that
of the system clock driving the digital data stream and the
IQWRT and IQCLK pins on the AD9765.
CDMA
Carrier Division Multiple Access, or CDMA, is an air transmit/
receive scheme where the signal in the transmit path is modu-
lated with a pseudorandom digital code (sometimes referred to
as the spreading code). The effect of this is to spread the trans-
mitted signal across a wide spectrum. Similar to a DMT wave-
form, a CDMA waveform containing multiple subscribers can
be characterized as having a high peak to average ratio (i.e.,
crest factor), thus demanding highly linear components in the
transmit signal path. The bandwidth of the spectrum is defined
by the CDMA standard being used, and in operation is imple-
mented by using a spreading code with particular characteristics.
Distortion in the transmit path can lead to power being trans-
mitted out of the defined band. The ratio of power transmitted
in-band to out-of-band is often referred to as Adjacent Channel
Power (ACP). This is a regulatory issue due to the possibility of
interference with other signals being transmitted by air. Regula-
tory bodies define a spectral mask outside of the transmit band,

Figure 45. Power Decoupling and Clocks on AD9765 Evaluation Board
EVALUATION BOARD
General Description
The AD9765-EB is an evaluation board for the AD9765 12-bit
dual D/A converter. Careful attention to layout and circuit
design, combined with a prototyping area, allow the user to
easily and effectively evaluate the AD9765 in any application
where high resolution, high speed conversion is required.
This board allows the user the flexibility to operate the AD9765
in various configurations. Possible output configurations include
transformer coupled, resistor terminated, and single and differ-
ential outputs. The digital inputs can be used in dual port or
interleaved mode, and are designed to be driven from various
word generators, with the on-board option to add a resistor
network for proper load termination. When operating the AD9765,
best performance is obtained by running the Digital Supply
(DVDD) at +3 V and the Analog Supply (AVDD) at +5 V.
