Clock input

The quality of your converter is very dependant on

your clock input accuracy, in terms of aperture

jitter; 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

modulation 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 TSA1201 enables

to optimize the power consumption according to

the sampling frequency of. For this purpose, a

resistor is placed between IPOL and the analog

Ground pins. Therefore, the total dissipation is

adjustable from 0.5Msps up to 50Msps. This

feature is of highest importance when power

saving conditions the application.

The TSA1201 will combine highest performances

and lowest consumption at 50Msps when Rpol is

equal to 12k

Ω.

At lower sampling frequency range, this value of

resistor may be adjusted in order to decrease the

analog

current

without

any

degradation

dynamic performances.

As an example, 40mW total power consumption is

achieved at 5 Msps with Rpol equal to 190k

Ω and

35mW is dissipated at 1Msps with Rpol equal to

350k

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,

digital, internal and external buffer ones) on the

PCB

mandatory

for

high

speed

circuit

applications to provide low inductance and low

resistance common return.

The separation of the analog signal from the

digital 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).
