performances when configured as shown on

Figure 8.

Figure 8 : External reference setting

At 15Msps sampling frequency, 1MHz input fre-

quency and -1dBFS amplitude signal, perfor-

mances can be improved of up to 2dBc on SFDR

and 0.3dB on SINAD. At 40Msps sampling fre-

quency, 1MHz input frequency and -1dBFS ampli-

tude signal, performances can be improved of up

to 1dBc on SFDR and 0.6dB on SINAD.

This can be very helpful for example for multichan-

nel application to keep a good matching among

the sampling frequency range.

Clock input

The quality of your converter is very dependant on

your clock input accuracy, in terms of aperture jit-

ter; the use of low jitter crystal controlled oscillator

is recommended.

The duty cycle must be between 45% and 55%.

The clock power supplies must be separated from

the ADC output ones to avoid digital noise modu-

lation at the output.

It is recommended to always keep the circuit

clocked, even at the lowest specified sampling

frequency of 0.5Msps, before applying the supply

voltages.

Power consumption optimization

The internal architecture of the TSA0801 enables

to optimize the power consumption according to

the sampling frequency of the application. For this

purpose, a resistor is placed between IPOL and

the analog Ground pins.

The TSA0801 will combine highest performances

and lowest consumption at 40Msps when Rpol is

equal to 18k

Ω.

At lower sampling frequency range (< 10Msps),

this value of resistor may be adjusted in order to

decrease

the

analog

current

without

any

degradation of dynamic performances.

As an example, 10mW total power consumption is

achieved at 5 Msps with Rpol equel to 390k

Ω.

The table below sums up the relevant data.

Layout precautions

To use the ADC circuits in the best manner at high

frequencies, some precautions have to be taken

for power supplies:

- First of all, the implementation of 4 separate

proper supplies and ground planes (analog, digi-

tal, internal and external buffer ones) on the PCB

is mandatory for high speed circuit applications to

provide low inductance and low resistance com-

mon return.

The separation of the analog signal from the digi-

tal part is essential to prevent noise from coupling

onto the input signal.

- Power supply bypass capacitors must be placed

as close as possible to the IC pins in order to

improve high frequency bypassing and reduce

harmonic distortion. - Proper termination of all

inputs and outputs must be incorporated with

output termination resistors; then the amplifier

load will be only resistive and the stability of the

amplifier will be improved. All leads must be wide

and as short as possible especially for the analog

input in order to decrease parasitic capacitance

and inductance.

- To keep the capacitive loading as low as

possible at digital outputs, short lead lengths of

routing are essential to minimize currents when

the output changes. To minimize this output

capacitance, buffers or latches close to the output

pins will relax this constraint.

- Choose component sizes as small as possible

(SMD).
