GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD10678 is a 16-bit, high performance, analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) for applications that demand increased SNR
levels. Exceptional noise performance and a typical signal-tonoise ratio of 80 dBFS are obtained by digitally postprocessing
the outputs of four ADCs. A single analog input and PECL
sampling clock and 3.3 V and 5 V power supplies are required.

3.
Guaranteed sample rate of 80 MSPS.
Input signal conditioning with optimized noise
performance.
Fully tested and guaranteed performance.
The AD10678 is assembled using a 0.062-inch laminate board
with three sets of connector interface pads to accommodate
analog and digital isolation. Analog Devices recommends
using the FSI-110-03-G-D-AD-K-TR connector from Samtec.
The overall board fits a 2.2 inch × 2.8 inch PCB specified from
0°C to 70°C.

TERMINOLOGY
Analog Bandwidth
The analog input frequency at which the spectral power of the
fundamental frequency (as determined by the FFT analysis) is
reduced by 3 dB.
Output Propagation Delay
The delay between the 50% point of the rising edge of the
ENCODE command and the time when all output data bits
are within valid logic levels.
Aperture Delay
The delay between the 50% point on the rising edge of the
ENCODE command and the instant at which the analog input
is sampled.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
The ratio of a change in output offset voltage to a change in
power supply voltage.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
The deviation of any code from an ideal 1 LSB step.
Signal-to-Noise and Distortion (SINAD)
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set at 1 dB below full
scale) to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral
components, including the first five harmonics and dc. Can be
reported in dBc (that is, degrades as signal level is lowered) or
in dBFS (always related back to converter full scale).
Encode Pulse Width/Duty Cycle
Pulse width high is the minimum amount of time that the
encode pulse should be left in Logic 1 state to achieve rated
performance; pulse width low is the minimum time that the
encode pulse should be left in low state. At a given clock rate,
these specifications define an acceptable encode duty cycle.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude (set at 1 dB below full scale)
to the rms value of the sum of all other spectral components,
excluding the first five harmonics and dc. Can be reported in dBc
(that is, degrades as signal level is lowered) or in dBFS (always
related back to converter full scale).
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
The deviation of the transfer function from a reference line
measured in fractions of 1 LSB using a best straight line
determined by a least square curve fit.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the peak
spurious spectral component. The peak spurious component may
or may not be an harmonic. Can be reported in dBc (such as,
degrades as signal level is lowered) or in dBFS (always related
back to converter full scale).
Aperture Uncertainty (Jitter)
The sample-to-sample variation in aperture delay.
Harmonic Distortion
The ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the
worst harmonic component.
Maximum Conversion Rate
The encode rate at which parametric testing is performed.
Two-Tone Intermodulation Distortion Rejection (IMD)
Ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value of the
worst third-order intermodulation product; reported in dBc.
Minimum Conversion Rate
The encode rate at which the SNR of the lowest analog signal
frequency drops by no more than 3 dB below the guaranteed limit.
Voltage Standing-Wave Ratio (VSWR)
The ratio of the amplitude of the elective field at a voltage
maximum to that at an adjacent voltage minimum.

Preliminary Technical Data
AD10678
THEORY OF OPERATION
The analog input is designed for a 50 Ω input impedance for
easy interface to commercially available cables, filters, drivers,
and so on.
The AD10678 encode inputs are ac-coupled to a PECL
differential receiver/driver. The output of the receiver/driver
provides a clock source for a 1:5 PECL clock driver and a PECLto-TTL translator. The 1:5 PECL clock driver provides the
differential encode signal for each of the four high speed ADCs.
The PECL-to-TTL translator provides a clock source for the
complex programmable logic device (CPLD).
The digital outputs from the four ADCs drive 120 Ω series
output terminators and are applied to the CPLD for postprocessing. The digital outputs are added together in the
complex programmable logic device through a ripple-carry
adder, which provides the 16-bit data output. The AD10678
provides valid data following 10 pipeline delays. The result
is a 16-bit parallel digital CMOS-compatible word coded as
true binary.

The four high speed ADCs use a three-stage subrange architecture. The AD10678 provides complementary analog input pins,
AIN and AIN. Each analog input is centered around 2.4 V and
should swing ±0.55 V around the reference. Because AIN and
AIN are 180 degrees out of phase, the differential analog input
signal is 2.15 V p-p.
75
TEMPERATURE (CASE) (°C)
The AD10678 uses four parallel, high speed ADCs in a
correlation technique to improve the dynamic range of the
ADCs. The technique consists of summing the parallel outputs
of the four converters to reduce the uncorrelated noise
introduced by the individual converters. Signals processed
through the high speed adder are correlated and summed
coherently. Noise is not correlated and sums on an rms basis.
Figure 21. Temperature (Case) vs. Air Flow (Ambient)
INPUT STAGE
The user is provided with a single-to-differential transformercoupled input. The input impedance is 50 Ω and requires a
2.15 V p-p input level to achieve full scale.
ENCODING THE AD10678
The AD10678 encode signal must be a high quality, low phase
noise source to prevent performance degradation. The clock
input must be treated as an analog input signal because aperture
jitter can affect dynamic performance. For optimum performance, the AD10678 must be clocked differentially.
OUTPUT LOADING
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
Due to the high power nature of the part, it is critical that the
following thermal conditions be met for the part to perform to
data sheet specifications. This also ensures that the maximum
junction temperature (150°C) is not exceeded.
Take care when designing the data receivers for the AD10678.
The complex, programmable logic device, 16-bit outputs drive
120 Ω series resistors to limit the amount of current that can
flow into the output stage. To minimize capacitive loading,
there should be only one gate on each of the output pins. A
typical CMOS gate combined with the PCB trace has a load of
approximately 10 pF. Note that extra capacitive loading
increases output timing and invalidates timing specifications.
Digital output timing is guaranteed with a 10 pF load.
ANALOG AND DIGITAL POWER SUPPLIES
•
Operation temperature (TA) must be within 0°C to 70°C.
•
All mounting standoffs should be fastened to the interface
PCB assembly with 2-56 nuts. This ensures good thermal
paths as well as excellent ground points.
•
The unit rises to ~72°C (TC) on the heat sink in still air
(0 linear feet per minute (LFM)). The minimum
recommended air flow is 100 linear feet per minute (LFM)
in either direction across the heat sink (see Figure 21).
Care must be taken when selecting a power source. Linear
supplies are recommended. Switching supplies tend to have
radiated components that can be coupled into the ADCs. The
AD10678 features separate analog and digital supply and
ground currents, helping to minimize digital corruption of
sensitive analog signals.
Rev. C | Page 13 of 20
AD10678
The +3.3 VE supply provides power to the clock distribution
circuit. The +3.3 VD supply provides power to the digital
output section of the ADCs, the PECL-to-TTL translator, and
the CPLD. Separate +3.3 VE and +3.3 VD supplies are used to
prevent modulation of the clock signal with digital noise.
next level assembly for optimum performance. The two
standoffs located near P1 and P2 (MH3 and MH4) are tied to
digital ground and should be connected accordingly on the
next-level assembly.
OTHER NOTES
The +5.0 VA supply provides power to the analog sections
of the ADCs. Decoupling capacitors are strategically placed
throughout the circuit to provide low impedance noise shunts
to ground. The +5.0 VA supply (analog power) should be
decoupled to analog ground (AGND), and +3.3 VD (digital
power) should be decoupled to digital ground (DGND). The
+3.3 VE supply (analog power) should be decoupled to AGND.
The evaluation board schematic and layout data provide a
typical PCB implementation of the AD10678. Table 8 shows the
PCB bill of materials.
The circuit is configured on a 2.2 inch × 2.8 inch laminate
board with three sets of connector interface pads. The pads
are configured to provide easy keying for the user. The pads
are made for low profile applications and have a total height of
0.12 inches after mating. The part numbers for the header mates
are provided in Figure 10. All pins of the analog and digital
sections are described in the Pin Configurations and Function
Descriptions section.
ANALOG AND DIGITAL GROUNDING
The AD10678 evaluation board provides an easy way to test
the 16-bit, 80 MSPS ADC. The board requires a clock source,
an analog input signal, two 3.3 V power supplies, and a 5 V
power supply. The clock source is buffered on the board to
provide a latch, a data ready signal, and the clock for the
AD10678. To use the AD10678 data ready output to clock
the buffer memory, remove R24 (0.0 Ω) and install a 0.0 Ω
resistor at R31 (DNI). The ADC digital outputs are latched on
board by a 74LCX16374. The digital outputs and output clock
are available on a 40-pin connector, J1. Power is supplied to the
board via uninsulated metal banana jacks.
Although the AD10678 provides separate analog and digital
ground pins, the device should be treated as an analog
component. Proper grounding is essential in high speed, high
resolution systems. Multilayer printed circuit boards are
recommended to provide optimal grounding and power
distribution. The use of power and ground planes provides
distinct advantages. Power and ground planes minimize the
loop area encompassed by a signal and its return path,
minimize the impedance associated with power and ground
paths, and provide a distributed capacitor formed by the power
plane, printed circuit board material, and ground plane. The
AD10678 unit has four metal standoffs (see Figure 10). MH2 is
located in the center of the unit and MH1 is located directly
below analog header P3. Both of these standoffs are tied to
analog ground and should be connected accordingly on the
EVALUATION BOARD
The analog input is connected via an SMA connector, AIN. The
analog input section provides a single-ended input option or a
differential input option. The board is shipped in a single-ended
analog input option. Removing a ground tie at E17 converts the
circuit to a differential analog input configuration.
