AD9761
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD9761 is a complete dual channel, high speed, 10-bit
CMOS DAC. The AD9761 has been developed specifically for
use in wide bandwidth communication applications (e.g., spread
spectrum) where digital I and Q information is being processed
during transmit operations. It integrates two 10-bit, 40 MSPS
DACs, dual 2× interpolation filters, a voltage reference, and
digital input interface circuitry. The AD9761 supports a
20 MSPS per channel input data rate that is then interpolated
by 2× up to 40 MSPS before simultaneously updating each
DAC.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Dual 10-Bit, 40 MSPS DACs: A pair of high performance
40 MSPS DACs optimized for low distortion performance
provide for flexible transmission of I and Q information.
2. 2× Digital Interpolation Filters: Dual matching FIR interpo-
lation filters with 62.5 dB stop band rejection precede each
DAC input thus reducing the DACs’ reconstruction filter
requirements.
The interleaved I and Q input data stream is presented to the
digital interface circuitry, which consists of I and Q latches as well
as some additional control logic. The data is de-interleaved back
into its original I and Q data. An on-chip state machine ensures the
proper pairing of I and Q data. The data output from each latch is
then processed by a 2× digital interpolation filter that eases the
reconstruction filter requirements. The interpolated output of each
filter serves as the input of their respective 10-bit DAC.
3. Low Power: Complete CMOS Dual DAC function operates
on a low 200 mW on a single supply from 2.7 V to 5.5 V.
The DAC full-scale current can be reduced for lower power
operation, and a sleep mode is provided for power reduction
during idle periods.
4. On-Chip Voltage Reference: The AD9761 includes a 1.20 V
temperature-compensated bandgap voltage reference.
5. Single 10-Bit Digital Input Bus: The AD9761 features a
flexible digital interface allowing each DAC to be addressed
in a variety of ways including different update rates.
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
differential applications. Both DACs are simultaneously up-
dated and provide a nominal full-scale current of 10 mA. Also,
the full-scale currents between each DAC are matched to within
0.07 dB (i.e., 0.75%), thus eliminating the need for additional
gain calibration circuitry.
6. Small Package: The AD9761 offers the complete integrated
function in a compact 28-lead SSOP package.
7. Product Family: The AD9761 Dual Transmit DAC has a
pair of Dual Receive ADC companion products, the AD9281
(8 bits) and AD9201 (10 bits).
The AD9761 is manufactured on an advanced low cost CMOS
process. It operates from a single supply of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and
consumes 200 mW of power. To make the AD9761 complete it
also offers an internal 1.20 V temperature-compensated bandgap
reference.
