CLOCK INPUT (REF_CLK/REF_CLK)

REF_CLK/REF_CLK Overview

The AD9914 supports a number of options for producing the

internal SYSCLK signal (that is, the DAC sample clock) via the

REF_CLK/REF_CLK input pins. The REF_CLK input can be

driven directly from a differential or single-ended source. There

is also an internal phase-locked loop (PLL) multiplier that can

be independently enabled. However, the PLL limits the SYSCLK

signal between 2.4 GHz and 2.5 GHz operation. A differential

signal is recommended when the PLL is bypassed. A block

diagram of the REF_CLK functionality is shown in Figure 32.

Figure 32 also shows how the CFR3 control bits are associated

with specific functional blocks.

Figure 32. REF_CLK Block Diagram

The PLL enable bit chooses between the PLL path or the direct

input path. When the direct input path is selected,

the REF_CLK/REF_CLK pins must be driven by an external

signal source (single-ended or differential). Input frequencies

up to 3.5 GHz are supported.

Direct Driven REF_CLK/REF_CLK

With a differential signal source, the REF_CLK/REF_CLK pins

are driven with complementary signals and ac-coupled with 0.1 µF

capacitors. With a single-ended signal source, either a single-

ended-to-differential conversion can be employed or the

REF_CLK input can be driven single-ended directly. In either

case, 0.1 µF capacitors ac couples both REF_CLK/ REF_CLK

pins to avoid disturbing the internal dc bias voltage of ~1.35 V.

See Figure 33 for more details.

The REF_CLK/REF_CLK input resistance is ~2.5 kΩ differential

(~1.2 kΩ single-ended). Most signal sources have relatively low

output impedances. The REF_CLK/REF_CLK input resistance is

relatively high; therefore, the effect on the termination impedance

is negligible and can usually be chosen to be the same as the output

impedance of the signal source. The bottom two examples in

Figure 33 assume a signal source with a 50 Ω output impedance.

Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) Multiplier

An internal PLL provides the option to use a reference clock

frequency that is significantly lower than the system clock

frequency. The PLL supports a wide range of programmable

even frequency multiplication factors (20× to 510×) as well as a

programmable charge pump current and external loop filter

components (connected via the PLL LOOP_FILTER pin). These

features add an extra layer of flexibility to the PLL, allowing

optimization of phase noise performance and flexibility in

frequency plan development. The PLL is also equipped with a

PLL lock bit indicator (0x1B[24]).

The PLL output frequency range (fSYSCLK) is constrained to the

range of 2.4 GHz ≤ fSYSCLK ≤ 2.5 GHz by the internal VCO.

VCO Calibration

When using the PLL to generate the system clock, VCO calibration

is required to tune the VCO appropriately and achieve good

performance. When the reference input signal is stable, the

VCO cal enable bit in the CFR1 register, 0x00[24], must be

asserted. Subsequent VCO calibrations require that the VCO

calibration bit be cleared prior to initiating another VCO

calibration. VCO calibration must occur before DAC calibration

to ensure optimal performance and functionality.
