AD9714/AD9715/AD9716/AD9717
THEORY OF OPERATION
Figure 84 shows a simplified block diagram of the AD9714/
AD9715/AD9716/AD9717 that consists of two DACs, digital
control logic, and a full-scale output current control. Each DAC
contains a PMOS current source array capable of providing a
nominal full-scale current (I
4 mA. The arrays are 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
1/16 of an MSB current source. The remaining LSBs are binary
weighted fractions of the current sources of the middle bits.
Implementing the middle and lower bits with current sources,
instead of an R-2R ladder, enhances its dynamic performance
for multitone or low amplitude signals and helps maintain the
high output impedance of the DACs (that is, >200 MΩ).
All of these current sources are switched to one or the other
of the two output nodes (I
current switches. The switches are based on the architecture that
was pioneered in the AD976x family, with further refinements
to reduce distortion contributed by the switching transient. This
switch architecture also reduces various timing errors and
provides matching complementary drive signals to the inputs
of the differential current switches.
The analog and digital I/O sections of the AD9714/AD9715/
AD9716/AD9717 have separate power supply inputs (AVDD and
DVDDIO) that can operate independently over a 1.8 V to 3.3 V
range. The core digital section requires 1.8 V. An optional on-chip

LDO is provided for DVDDIO supplies greater than 1.8 V, or the
1.8 V can be supplied directly through DVDD. A 1.0 μF bypass
capacitor at DVDD (Pin 7) is required when using the LDO.
The core is capable of operating at a rate of up to 125 MSPS. It
consists of edge-triggered latches and the segment decoding logic
circuitry. The analog section includes PMOS current sources,
associated differential switches, a 1.0 V band gap voltage
reference, and a reference control amplifier.
Each DAC full-scale output current is regulated by the reference
control amplifier and can be set from 1 mA to 4 mA via an external
resistor, xR

The AD9714/AD9715/AD9716/AD9717 provide the option of
setting the output common mode to a value other than AVSS
via the output common-mode pins (CMLI and CMLQ). This
facilitates directly interfacing the output of the AD9714/AD9715/
AD9716/AD9717 to components that require common-mode
levels greater than 0 V.
