... The 12-bit and 10-bit IF ADCs can convert direct IF inputs MHz and run at sample rates MSPS. A video input with an adjustable signal clamping level, along with the 10-bit ADC, allow the AD9879 to process an NTSC and a QAM channel simultaneously. The programmable Σ-Δ DAC can be used to control external components, such as variable gain amplifiers (VGAs) or voltage controlled tuners ...

... AD9879 TERMINOLOGY Aperture Delay The aperture delay is a measure of the sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) performance. It specifies the time delay between the rising edge of the sampling clock input and when the input signal is held for conversion. Aperture Uncertainty (Jitter) Aperture jitter is the variation in aperture delay for successive samples ...

... SNR when reduced output levels are required. DATA ASSEMBLER The AD9879 data path operates on two 12-bit words, the I and Q components, which compose a complex symbol. The data assembler builds the 24-bit complex symbols from four consecutive 6-bit nibbles read over the TxIQ[5:0] bus. The nibbles are strobed synchronous to the master clock, MCLK, into the data assembler ...

... Sampling the ADCs directly with the OSCIN clock requires (4) MCLK to be programmed to be twice the OSCIN frequency. (5) PROGRAMMABLE CLOCK OUTPUT REFCLK The AD9879 provides an auxiliary output clock on Pin 71, REFCLK. The value of the MCLK divider bit field, R, determines its output frequency as shown: f REFCLK ...

... Power-Up Sequence On initial power-up, the RESET pin should be held low until the power supply is stable. Once RESET is deasserted, the AD9879 can be programmed over the serial port. The on-chip PLL requires a maximum of 1 millisecond after the rising edge of RESET or a change of the multiplier factor (M) to completely settle ...

... OUTPUTS The AD9879 contains an on-chip Σ-Δ output that provides a digital logic bit stream with an average duty cycle that varies between 0% and (4095/4096)%, depending on the programmed code, as shown in Figure 7. This bit stream can be low-pass filtered to generate a programmable dc voltage (Σ-Δ Code/4096)(V ...

... OSCIN 0, f (PLL Derived) MCLK When using the AD9879 in systems where the Tx path and Rx path do not operate simultaneously, the value of M can be programmed from 1 to 31. The maximum f 236 MHz must be observed, whatever value is chosen for M. When M is set to 1, the internal PLL is disabled and all internal clocks are derived directly from OSCIN ...

... This functionality is controlled by the LSB-first bit in Register 0x00. The default is MSB first. When this bit is set active high, the AD9879 serial port is in LSB-first format. In LSB-first mode, the instruction byte and data bytes must be written from the LSB to the MSB. In LSB- first mode, the serial port internal byte address generator increments for each byte of the multibyte communication cycle ...

... The usable bandwidth of the filter chain puts a limit on the maximum data rate that can be propagated through the AD9879. A look at the pass-band detail of the combined filter response (Figure 15 and Figure 16) indicates that to maintain an amplitude error of no more than 1 dB, signals are restricted to a bandwidth of no more than approximately 60 Rev ...

... Power-Up and Hardware Reset—Upon initial power-up and every hardware reset, the AD9879 clears the contents of the gain control registers to 0, which defines the lowest gain setting of the AD832x. Thus, the AD9879 writes all 0s out of the 3-wire cable amplifier control interface. 2. ...
