19-4456; Rev 0; 2/09 KIT ATION EVALU LE B A IL A AV Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface Features The MAX1385/MAX1386 set and control bias conditions for dual RF LDMOS power devices found in cellular base stations. Each device includes a high-side current-sense amplifier with programmable gains of 2, 10, and 25 to monitor LDMOS drain current over the 20mA to 5A range. Two external diode-connected transistors monitor LDMOS temperatures while an internal temperature sensor measures the local die temperature of the MAX1385/MAX1386. A 12-bit ADC converts the programmable-gain amplifier (PGA) outputs, external/internal temperature readings, and two auxiliary inputs. The two gate-drive channels, each consisting of 8-bit coarse and 10-bit fine DACs and a gate-drive amplifier, generate a positive gate voltage to bias the LDMOS devices. The MAX1385 includes a gate-drive amplifier with a gain of 2 and the MAX1386 gate-drive amplifier provides a gain of 4. The 8-bit coarse and 10-bit fine DACs allow up to 18 bits of resolution. The MAX1385/ MAX1386 include autocalibration features to minimize error over time, temperature, and supply voltage. Integrated High-Side Drain Current-Sense PGA with Gain of 2, 10, or 25 The MAX1385/MAX1386 feature an I2C/SPITM-compatible serial interface. Both devices operate from a 4.75V to 5.25V analog supply (3.2mA supply current), a 2.7V to 5.25V digital supply (3.1mA supply current), and a 4.75V to 11.0V gate-drive supply (4.5mA supply current). The MAX1385/MAX1386 are available in a 48-pin thin QFN package.

Note 2: Total unadjusted errors are for the entire gain drive channel including the 8- and 10-bit DACs and the gate driver. They are all measured at the GATE1 and GATE2 outputs. Offset removal refers to presetting the drain current after a room temperature calibration by the user. This effectively removes the channel offset. Note 3: During power-on reset, the output safe switch is closed. The output safe switch opens once both AVDD and DVDD supply voltages are established. Note 4: Integral nonlinearity is the deviation of the analog value at any code from its theoretical value after the gain and offset errors have been removed. Note 5: Offset nulled. Note 6: Absolute range for analog inputs is from 0 to AVDD. Note 7: The MAX1385/MAX1386 and external sensor are at the same temperature. External sensor measurement error is tested with a diode-connected 2N3904. Note 8: The drive current ratio is defined as the large drive current divided by the small drive current in a temperature measurement. See the Temperature Measurements section for further details. Note 9: Guaranteed monotonicity. Accuracy might be degraded at lower VREFDAC. Note 10: Supply current limits are valid only when digital inputs are at DVDD or DGND. Timing specifications are only guaranteed when inputs are driven rail-to-rail. Note 11: Shutdown supply currents are typically 0.1A. Maximum specification is limited by automated test equipment. Note 12: All timing specifications referred to VIH or VIL levels. Note 13: A master device must provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal (referred to VIL of SCL) to bridge the undefined region of SCL's falling edge. Note 14: Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF; tR and tF are measured between 0.3 x DVDD and 0.7 x DVDD. Note 15: For a device operating in an I2C-compatible system. Note 16: Input filters on the SDA and SCL inputs suppress noise spikes less than 50ns. Note 17: A device must provide a data hold time to bridge the undefined part between VIH and VIL of the falling edge of the SCL signal. An input circuit with a threshold as low as possible for the falling edge of the SCL signal minimizes this hold time. Note 18: Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF. For bus loads between 100pF and 400pF, the timing parameters should be linearly interpolated. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 9 MAX1385/MAX1386 SPI TIMING CHARACTERISTICS (Note 12, See Figure 3) MAX1385/MAX1386 Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface SDA tF tLOW t SU;DAT tR tF t HD;STA tSP tr tBUF SCL t HD;STA t HIGH t HD;DAT S t SU;STO t SU;STA Sr S P Figure 1.

Each device includes a high-side current-sense amplifier with programmable gains of 2, 10, and 25 to monitor the LDMOS drain current over the 20mA to 5A range. Two external diode-connected transistors monitor the LDMOS temperatures while an internal temperature sensor measures the local die temperature of the MAX1385/MAX1386. A 12-bit ADC converts the programmable-gain amplifier (PGA) outputs, external/internal temperature readings, and two auxiliary inputs. The two gate-drive channels, each consisting of 8-bit coarse and 10-bit fine DACs and a gate-drive amplifier, generate a positive gate voltage to bias the LDMOS devices. The MAX1385 includes a gate-drive amplifier with a gain of 2 and the MAX1386 gate-drive amplifier provides a gain of 4. The 8-bit coarse and 10-bit fine DACs allow up to 18 bits of resolution. The MAX1385/ MAX1386 include autocalibration modes to minimize error over time, temperature, and supply voltage. The MAX1385/MAX1386 feature an I2C-/SPI-compatible serial interface. Both devices operate from a 4.75V to 5.25V analog supply (3.2mA supply current), a 2.7V to 5.25V digital supply (3.1mA supply current), and a 4.75V to 11.0V gate-drive supply (4.5mA supply current). Power-On Reset On power-up, the MAX1385/MAX1386 are in full powerdown mode (see the SSHUT (Write) section). To change to normal power mode, write two commands to the Software Shutdown register. The first command sets FULLPD to 0 (other bits in the Software Shutdown register are ignored). A second command is needed to activate any internal blocks. The recommended sequence of commands to ensure reliable startup following the application of power, is given in the Appendix: Recommended Power-Up Code Sequence section. ADC Description The MAX1385/MAX1386 ADC uses a fully differential successive approximation register (SAR) conversion technique and on-chip track-and-hold (T/H) circuitry to convert temperature and voltage signals into 12-bit digital results. The analog inputs accept single-ended input signals. Single-ended signals are converted using a unipolar transfer function. See the ADC transfer function of Figure 25 for more information. 18 The internal ADC block converts the results of the die temperature, remote diode temperature readings, PGAOUT1, PGAOUT2, ADCIN1, or ADCIN2 voltages according to which bits are set in the ADC Conversion register (see the ADCCON (Write) section). The results of the conversions are written to FIFO memory. The FIFO holds up to 15 words (each word is 16 bits) with channel tags to indicate which channel the 12-bit data comes from. The FIFO indicates an overflow condition and an underflow condition (read of an empty FIFO) by the Flag register (see the RDFLAG (Read) section) and channel tags. The FIFO always stores the most recent conversion results and allows the oldest data to be overwritten. Read the latest result stored in the FIFO by sending the appropriate read command byte (see the FIFO (Read) section). Read the data stored in the FIFO through the FIFO Read register. The FIFO (Read) section details which channel is being read and whether the FIFO has overflowed. Analog-to-Digital Conversion Scheduling The MAX1385/MAX1386 ADC multiplexer scans selected inputs in the order shown in Table 1. The ADC multiplexer skips over the items that are not selected in the Analog-to-Digital Conversion register. When writing a conversion command before a conversion is complete, the pending conversion may be canceled. In addition, using the serial interface while the ADC is converting may degrade the performance of the ADC. ADC Clock Modes The MAX1385/MAX1386 offer three different conversion/acquisition modes (known as clock modes) selectable through the Device Configuration register (see the DCFIG (Read/Write) section). Clock Mode 10 is reserved and cannot be used. For conversion/acquisition examples and timing diagrams, see the Applications Information section. If the analog-to-digital conversion requires the internal reference (temperature measurement or voltage measurement with internal reference selected) and the reference has not been previously forced on, the device inserts a worst-case delay of 81s, for the reference to settle, before commencing the analog-to-digital conversion. The reference remains powered up while there are pending conversions. If the reference is not forced on, it automatically powers down at the end of a scan or when CONCONV in the Analog-to-Digital Conversion register is set back to 0. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface Clock Mode 01 In clock mode 01, power-up, acquisition, conversion, and power-down are all initiated by setting CNVST low for at least 40ns. Conversions are performed automatically using the internal oscillator. The ADC sets the BUSY output high, powers up, scans all requested channels, stores the results in the FIFO, and then powers down. After the scan is complete, BUSY is pulled low and the results for all the commanded channels are available in the FIFO. Clock Mode 11 In clock mode 11, conversions are initiated one at a time through CNVST in the order shown in Table 1 and performed using the internal oscillator. In this mode, the acquisition time is controlled by the time CNVST is brought low. CNVST is resynchronized by the internal oscillator, which means there is a one-clock-cycle uncertainty (typically 320ns) in the exact sampling instant. Different timing parameters apply depending whether the conversion is temperature, voltage, using the external reference, or using the internal reference. Table 1. Order of ADC Conversion Scan ORDER OF SCAN DESCRIPTION OF CONVERSION 1 Internal device temperature 2 External diode 1 temperature 3 PGAOUT1 for current sense 4 ADCIN1 5 External diode 2 temperature 6 PGAOUT2 for current sense 7 ADCIN2 For a temperature conversion, set CNVST low for at least 40ns. The BUSY output goes high and the temperature conversion results are available after an additional 94s (when BUSY goes low again). Thus, the worst-case conversion time of the initial temperature sensor scan (allowing the internal reference to settle) is 175s. Subsequent temperature scans only take 85s worst case as the internal reference and temperature sensor circuits are already powered. For a voltage conversion while using an internal or external reference, set CNVST low for at least 2s but less than 6.7s. The BUSY output goes high and the conversion results are available after an additional 7.5s (typ) when BUSY goes low again. Continuous conversion is not supported in this clock mode (see the ADCCON (Write) section). Changing Clock Modes During ADC Conversions If a change is made to the clock mode in the Device Configuration register while the ADC is already performing a conversion (or series of conversions), the following descriptions show how the MAX1385/MAX1386 respond: * CKSEL = 00 and is then changed to another value The ADC completes the already triggered series of conversions and then goes idle. The BUSY output remains high until the conversions are completed. The MAX1385/MAX1386 then respond in accordance with the new CKSEL mode. * CKSEL = 01 and is then changed to another value If waiting for the initial external trigger, the MAX1385/MAX1386 immediately exit clock mode 01, power down the ADC, and go idle. The BUSY output stays low and waits for the external trigger. If a conversion sequence has started, the ADC completes the requested conversions and then goes idle. The BUSY output remains high until the conversions are completed. The MAX1385/MAX1386 then respond in accordance with the new CKSEL mode. * CKSEL = 11 and is then changed to another value If waiting for an external trigger, the MAX1385/ MAX1386 immediately exit clock mode 11, power down the ADC, and go idle. The BUSY output stays low and waits for the external trigger. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 19 MAX1385/MAX1386 Clock Mode 00 In clock mode 00, power-up, acquisition, conversion, and power-down are all initiated by writing to the Analogto-Digital Conversion register and performed automatically using the internal oscillator. This is the default clock mode. The ADC sets the BUSY output high, powers up, scans all requested channels, stores the results in the FIFO, and then powers down. After the scan is complete, BUSY is pulled low and the results for all the commanded channels are available in the FIFO. MAX1385/MAX1386 Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface CAPACITIVE DAC ADCIN_ CONTROL LOGIC AGND TRACK MODE CAPACITIVE DAC ADCIN_ CONTROL LOGIC AGND HOLD/CONVERSION MODE Figure 4. Equivalent ADC Input Circuit Analog Input Track and Hold The equivalent circuit (Figure 4) shows the MAX1385/MAX1386 ADC input architecture. In track mode, a positive input capacitor is connected to ADCIN_ and a negative input capacitor is connected to AGND. After the T/H enters hold mode, the difference between the sampled positive and negative input voltages is converted. The input capacitance charging rate determines the time required for the T/H to acquire an input signal. If the input signal's source impedance is high, the required acquisition time lengthens. Any source impedance below 300 does not significantly affect the ADC's AC performance. A high-imped- 20 ance source can be accommodated either by lengthening tACQ or by placing a 1F capacitor between the positive input and AGND. The combination of the analog input source impedance and the capacitance at the analog input creates an RC filter that limits the analoginput bandwidth. Analog-Input Bandwidth The ADC's input-tracking circuitry has a 10MHz bandwidth to digitize high-speed transient events. Anti-alias prefiltering of the input signals is necessary to avoid high-frequency signals aliasing into the frequency band of interest. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface DAC Description The MAX1385/MAX1386 include two 8-bit and 10-bit DAC blocks to independently control the voltage on each LDMOS gate. Both 10-bit and 8-bit DACs can be automatically calibrated to minimize output error over time, temperature, and supply voltage. The 8-bit and 10-bit DACs have unipolar transfer functions and have a relationship to the output voltage by the following equation: V V FINECODE VDACOUT = REF x LOCODE + REF x [HICODE - LOCODE] x 28 28 210 where LOCODE, HICODE, and FINECODE are the low wiper (8 bits), high wiper (8 bits), and fine DAC (10 bits) values written to the DAC by the user. LOCODE, HICODE, and FINECODE represent the values in the DAC input registers and may or may not be the actual values in the DAC output registers depending whether autocalibration is used or not (see the 8-Bit CoarseDAC Adjustment section). To find the actual voltage at GATE_, multiply the VDACOUT result by 2 (MAX1385) or 4 (MAX1386). Due to the buffer amplifiers, the voltage at GATE_ cannot be set below 100mV above AGND. It is recommended that the LOCODE for DAC1 and DAC2 are set so that the minimum possible output at GATE_ is 200mV (MAX1385) and 400mV (MAX1386). The DACs can be operated to produce an 18-bit monotonic DAC with 12-bit (typ) INL. Write to either HICODE or LOCODE in a leapfrog fashion, without commanding autocalibration, to configure the 18-bit monotonic DAC. When LOCODE > HICODE, invert the value of FINECODE. 8-Bit Coarse-DAC Adjustment Each DAC control block contains a resistor string with wipers that serve as an 8-bit coarse DAC. Wipers are set by writing to the appropriate DAC input registers and/or using the Load DAC Control register (LDAC) commands. The output of a coarse DAC is not updated until the appropriate DAC output register(s) have been set. See Figure 5 for the relationship between DAC input registers, DAC output registers, and wipers. DAC output registers are not directly accessible to the user. Choose which input register to write to based on whether automatic low or high calibration is desired, or if updates to the output of the DAC need to be initiated immediately. In the case of automatic low or high calibration, a correction code is added to or subtracted from the 10-bit fine-DAC input register. Transfers from the DAC input registers to DAC output registers can occur immediately after a write to the appropriate DAC input register or on a software command through the Software LDAC register. See the Register Descriptions section for bit-level descriptions of these registers. 10-Bit Fine-DAC Adjustment Each DAC control block contains a 10-bit fine DAC that operates between the high and low wiper positions from the 8-bit coarse DAC. The 10-bit fine DAC also has an optional automatic calibration mode and can be updated immediately or on a software-issued command in the Software LDAC register. Writing to the appropriate fine-DAC input register determines whether automatic calibration is used and/or when the DAC is updated. See Figure 6 for the relationship between DAC input registers, DAC output registers, and the Software LDAC register. The fine-DAC output registers are not directly accessible. Choose which DAC input register to write to based on whether automatic fine calibration is desired, or whether updates to the output of the DAC need to be initiated immediately. In the case of automatic fine calibration, a correction code is added to or subtracted from the input register code and transferred to the appropriate fine-DAC output register. Transfers from a fine-DAC input register to a fine-DAC output register can occur immediately after a write to the appropriate DAC input register or on a software command through the Software LDAC register.

Fine-DAC Register Diagram 22 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface Temperature Measurements The MAX1385/MAX1386 measure the internal die temperature and two external remote-diode temperature sensors. Set up a temperature conversion by writing to the Analog-to-Digital Conversion register (see the ADCCON (Write) section). Optionally program SAFE1 and SAFE2 outputs to depend on programmed temperature thresholds. The MAX1385/MAX1386 can perform temperature measurements with an internal diode-connected transistor. The diode bias current changes from 66A to 4A to produce a temperature-dependent bias voltage difference. The second conversion result at 4A is subtracted from the first at 66A to calculate a digital value that is proportional to the absolute temperature. The stored data result is the aforementioned digital code minus an offset to adjust from Kelvin to Celsius. The reference voltage for the temperature measurements is always derived from the internal reference source. Temperature results are in degrees Celsius (two's-complement form). The temperature-sensing circuits power up for the first temperature measurement in an analog-to-digital conversion scan. The temperature-sensing circuits remain powered until the end of the scan to avoid a possible 67s delay of internal reference power-up time for each individual temperature channel. If the continuous convert bit CONCONV is set high and the current ADC channel selection includes a temperature channel, the temperature-sensor circuits remain powered up until the CONCONV bit is set low. The external temperature-sensor drive current ratio has been optimized for a 2N3904 npn transistor with an ideality factor of 1.0065. The nonideality offset is removed internally by a preset digital coefficient. Use of a transistor with a different ideality factor produces a proportionate difference in the absolute measured temperature. More details on this topic and others related to using an external temperature sensor can be found in Maxim Application Note 1057: Compensating for Ideality and Series Resistance Differences Between Thermal Sense Diodes and Application Note 1944: Temperature Monitoring Using the MAX1253/MAX1254 and MAX1153/MAX1154. High-Side Current-Sense PGAs The MAX1385/MAX1386 provide two high-side currentsense amplifiers with programmable gain. The currentsense amplifiers are unidirectional and provide a 5V to 30V input common-mode range. Both CS1+ and CS2+ must be within the specified common-mode range for proper operation of each amplifier. The sense amplifiers measure the load current, ILOAD, through an external sense resistor, RSENSE_, between the CS_+ and CS_- inputs. The full-scale sense voltage range (VSENSE_ = VCS_+ - VCS_-) depends on the programmed gain, AvPGA_ (see the DCFIG (Read/Write) section). The sense amplifiers provide a voltage output at PGAOUT_ according to the following equation: VPGAOUT _ = AvPGA _ x (VCS _ + - VCS _ -) These outputs are also routed to the internal 12-bit ADC so that a digital representation of the amplified voltages can be read through the FIFO. The PGA scales the sensed voltages to fit the input range of the ADC. Program the PGA with gains of 2, 10, and 25 by setting the PGSET_ bits (see the DCFIG (Read/Write) section). The input stages have nominal input offset voltages of 0mV that can be adjusted by a trim DAC (not shown in the Functional Diagram) over the -3mV to +3mV range in 25V steps. Autocalibration can be used to control the trim DAC to minimize the effective channel input offset voltage (see the PGACAL (Write) section). The PGA feedback network is referenced to AGND. ALARM Output The state of ALARM is logically equivalent to the inclusive OR of SAFE1 and SAFE2. The exception to this statement is when ALARM is configured for output interrupt mode (see the Alarm Modes section). When in output-interrupt mode, ALARM stays in its asserted state until its associated flag is cleared by reading from the ______________________________________________________________________________________ 23 MAX1385/MAX1386 ADC/DAC References The MAX1385/MAX1386 provide an internal low-noise 2.5V reference for the ADCs, DACs, and temperature sensor. See the Device Configuration Register section for information on configuring the device for external or internal reference. Connect a voltage source to REFADC in the 1V to AVDD range when using an external ADC reference. Connect a voltage source to REFDAC in the 0.5V to 2.5V range when using an external DAC reference. When using an external voltage reference, bypass the reference pin with a 0.1F capacitor to AGND. The internal reference has a lowpass filter to reduce noise. The device allows 60s (typ) and 81s (typ) worst case for the reference to settle before permitting an analog-to-digital conversion. If reference mode 11 is selected, the required settling time is longer. In this case, the user should set at least one of DAC1PD, DAC2PD, or FBGON in the Software Shutdown register, any of which forces the reference to be permanently powered up.

SAFE1/SAFE2 Outputs Set up the SAFE1 and SAFE2 outputs to allow WiredOR/AND-type logic functions or to create additional interrupt-type signals to replace or supplement the existing ALARM output. SAFE1 and SAFE2 do not have any internal pullup/pulldown devices. The SAFE1 and SAFE2 output buffers are CMOS-compatible, noninverting, output buffers capable of driving to within 0.5V of either digital rail. The SAFE1 and SAFE2 outputs power up as active-high CMOS outputs with standard logic levels. Configure the SAFE1 and SAFE2 outputs for open-drain or push-pull by setting the appropriate bits in the Hardware Alarm Configuration register. When configuring SAFE1 and SAFE2 as open-drain outputs, an external pullup resistor is required. 24 BUSY Output The BUSY output is forced high to show that the MAX1385/MAX1386 are busy for a variety of reasons: * The ADC is in the middle of a user-commanded conversion cycle (but not in continuous convert mode) * The ADC is in the middle of an internally triggered conversion cycle (for a self-calibration measurement) * The device is in the middle of DAC calibration calculations * The device is in the middle of power-up initialization * One of the PGA channels is undergoing self-calibration The serial interface remains active regardless of the state of the BUSY output. Wait until BUSY goes low to read the current conversion data from the FIFO. When BUSY is high as a result of an ADC conversion, do not enter a second conversion command until BUSY has gone low to indicate the previous conversion is complete. The rising edge of BUSY occurs on the next internal oscillator clock after the start of a new conversion (either by CNVST or an interface command). ______________________________________________________________________________________ Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface MAX1385/MAX1386 MEASUREMENT VALUE (TEMPERATURE OR CURRENT) HIGH THRESHOLD BUILT-IN HYSTERESIS BUILT-IN HYSTERESIS LOW THRESHOLD TIME ALARM OUTPUT OUTPUTCOMPARATOR MODE (ACTIVE LOW) OUTPUTINTERRUPT MODE (ACTIVE LOW) FLAG REGISTER READ FLAG REGISTER FLAG REGISTER READ READ TIME Figure 8. Window-Threshold-Mode Timing Diagram In single-conversion mode (CKSEL = 11), the BUSY signal remains high until the ADC has completed the current conversion (not the entire scan, just the current conversion), the data has been moved into the FIFO, and the alarm limits for the channel have been checked (if enabled). In multiple-conversion mode (CKSEL = 01 or CKSEL = 00), the BUSY signal remains high until all channels have been scanned and the data from the final channel has been moved into the FIFO and checked for alarm limits (if enabled). In continuous-conversion mode (CONCONV = 1), the BUSY signal does not go high as a result of ADC conversions; however, BUSY does go high when CONCONV is removed and remains high until the current scan is complete and the ADC sequence halts. After commanding any of the DAC autocalibration components, wait for BUSY to go low before setting OSCPD to 1. Alarm Modes The MAX1385/MAX1386 contain several programmable modes for configuring outputs ALARM, SAFE1, and SAFE2 behavior. Window-threshold mode allows SAFE_ to assert when the temperature/current is too high or too low (outside the window). Hysteresis-threshold mode allows SAFE_ to assert when the temperature/ current is too high, and then to deassert when the temperature/current falls back to an appropriate level. ALARM asserts when SAFE1 and/or SAFE2 asserts. Program ALARM for output-comparator mode to stay asserted after an alarm condition until temperature/current levels are back below programmed thresholds. Program ALARM for output-interrupt mode to stay asserted after an alarm condition until the Flag register is read. Window-Threshold Mode In window-threshold mode, ADC readings of current/temperature are compared to the configured current/temperature low/high thresholds that are programmed to cause an alarm condition. If an ADC reading falls out of the configured window and ALARM is configured for output-comparator mode, ALARM asserts until the current/temperature reading falls back into the window (past the built-in hysteresis). If an ADC reading falls out of the configured window and ALARM is configured for output-interrupt mode, ALARM asserts until the Flag register is read. Set the amount of built-in hysteresis from 8 LSBs to 64 LSBs (see the ALMSCFG (Read/Write) section). See Figures 7 and 8. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 25 MAX1385/MAX1386 Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface HIGHEST POSSIBLE THRESHOLD VALUE (DEFAULT VALUE FOR HIGH THRESHOLD REGISTER) ALARM OUTPUT ASSERTED WHEN MEASURED VALUE RISES ABOVE THIS LEVEL HIGH THRESHOLD ALARM OUTPUT ASSERTED WHEN MEASURED VALUE FALLS BELOW THIS LEVEL LOW THRESHOLD RANGE OF VALUES THAT DO NOT CAUSE AN ALARM *ONLY WHEN ALARM IS CONFIGURED FOR OUTPUT-COMARATOR MODE.

Hysteresis-Threshold-Mode Diagram Hysteresis-Threshold Mode In hysteresis-threshold mode, ADC readings of current/temperature are compared to the configured current/temperature low/high thresholds that are programmed to cause an alarm condition. If an ADC reading exceeds its respective configured threshold and ALARM is configured for output-comparator mode, ALARM asserts until the current/temperature reading falls back below its respective threshold. If an ADC reading exceeds its respective configured threshold and ALARM is configured for output-interrupt mode, ALARM asserts until the Flag register is read. See Figures 9 and 10. Register Descriptions Communicate with the MAX1385/MAX1386 through the I2C/SPI-compatible serial interface. Complete read and write operations consist of slave address bytes, command bytes, and data bytes. The following register descriptions cover the contents of command bytes and data bytes. See the Digital Serial Interface section for a detailed description of how to construct full read and write operations. All registers are volatile and are reset to default states upon removal of power. These default states are referred to as power-on reset (POR) states.

Write to the PGA Calibration Control register by sending the appropriate write command byte followed by data bits D15-D0 (see Table 12). Bits D15-D8 are reserved and must be set to 0. Bits D7-D3 are don't care. Set FIRSTB to 1 to enable tracking-calibration mode, and to 0 to enable acquisition-calibration mode. During an offset calibration trial, for either mode, the corresponding PGAOUT_ is put into hold, which produces a pedestal error for 67s typically and BUSY is set to 1. In acquisition mode, the calibration routine operates continuously, first on channel 1 and then on channel 2, until the channel-input offset voltage error has been reduced to within 50V. The time taken for both channels to complete acquisition depends upon the initial channel offset voltage error but should never be longer than 112ms. In tracking mode, a pair of offset calibration trials, first on channel 1 and then on channel 2, are made each time DOCAL is set to 1 or every 20ms if the SELFTIME bit is set to 1. To reject noise, the offset trim DAC code (not shown in the Functional Diagram) only increments or decrements after the results of 16 calibration trials have been averaged. Set FIRSTB to 0 and DOCAL to 1 to initiate an acquisition calibration. Acquisition must be done before tracking the first time a PGA calibration is commanded. Set FIRSTB to 1, DOCAL to 1, and SELFTIME to 0 to trigger an offset calibration trial on PGA1 and PGA2. At the end of the routine, DOCAL returns to 0. Set FIRSTB to 1, DOCAL to 1 (optional to trigger calibration once immediately before SELFTIME starts periodic calibrations), and SELFTIME to 1, just once, to trigger periodic offset-calibration trials (approximately every 20ms).

Write to the Hardware Alarm Configuration register by sending the appropriate write command byte followed by data bits D15-D0 (see Table 15). Bits D15-D8 are don't care. Read the Hardware Alarm Configuration register by sending the appropriate read command byte. Set SETSAFE1 to 1 to immediately force SAFE1 active. This is especially useful when SAFE1 is connected to OPSAFE1, giving the user software control over shutting down the LDMOS transistor. Set SETSAFE1 to 0 for normal operation. SETSAFE2 has the same functionality as SETSAFE1 but for channel 2. Set ALARMPOL to 1 to configure ALARM active-low. Set it to 0 to configure ALARM active-high. Set ALARMOPN to 1 to configure ALARM open-drain. Set it to 0 to configure ALARM push-pull. Set SAFE1POL to 1 to configure SAFE1 for active-low, and to 0 for active-high. Set SAFE2POL to 1 to configure SAFE2 for active-low, and to 0 for active-high. Set SAFE1OPN to 1 to configure SAFE1 for open-drain, and to 0 for push-pull. Set SAFE2OPN to 1 to configure SAFE2 for open-drain, and to 0 for push-pull. When connecting SAFE1 and SAFE2 outputs to OPSAFE1 and OPSAFE2 inputs, configure the device as follows: 1) Set SAFE1POL and SAFE2POL to 0s. Table 11.

This ensures that when SAFE1 and SAFE2 are asserted, and connected to OPSAFE1 and OPSAFE2, the LDMOS transistors are shut off. ADCCON (Write) The Analog-to-Digital Conversion register selects which inputs to the ADC are converted. Write to the Analog-toDigital Conversion register by sending the appropriate write command byte followed by data bits D15-D0 (see Table 16). Bits D15-D12 are don't care. Bits D11-D8 are reserved bits and need to be set to 0. Read the results of the conversions in the FIFO by sending the appropriate read command byte. See the ADC Description section for a complete description of the ADC. Set CONCONV to 1 to convert selected inputs to the ADC continuously and to 0 to convert selected inputs to the ADC only once. Set ADCSEL2 to 1 to select voltages at ADCIN2 to be converted. Set IEXT2 to 1 to select voltages at PGAOUT2 to be converted. Set Table 12.

Set TEXT1 to 1 to select the temperature at external diode 1 to be converted. Set TINT to 1 to select the internal temperature of the MAX1385/MAX1386 to be converted. During continuous conversions (CONCONV = 1), the ADC does not trigger the BUSY signal. When CONCONV is set to 0, the current scan (not just the current conversion) is completed and the ADC waits for the next command. During continuous conversions, the FIFO overflows if the user does not read it quickly enough. When the FIFO overflows, it contains a mixture of old and new conversion results (see the RDFLAG (Read) section). Continuous conversion mode is only available in clock modes 00 and 01. SSHUT (Write) The Software Shutdown register shuts down all internal blocks at once or the DAC, ADC, and PGA blocks individually. Write to the Software Shutdown register by sending the appropriate write command byte followed by data bits D15-D0 (see Table 17). Bits D15-D8 and D6, D5, and D4 are don't care. Set FULLPD to 1 to shut down all internal blocks and reduce the AVDD supply current to 0.2A. FULLPD is set to 1 at power-up. To change to normal power mode, write two commands to the Software Shutdown register. The first command sets FULLPD to 0 (other bits in the Software Shutdown register are ignored). A second command is needed to activate any internal blocks. FULLPD overrides all other shutdown bits; however, all shutdown bits retain their data when FULLPD is set to 1. This means that if DAC1 and PGA1 are shut down before FULLPD is set to 1, they remain shut down after FULLPD is set to 0 again. Set FBGON to 1 to force the internal bandgap reference to be powered at all times. Set FBGON to 0 to transfer power-down control of the internal reference to the ADC. In the event of DAC1PD or DAC2PD being set to 0, the internal bandgap is forced on. Set OSCPD to 1 to shut down the internal oscillator. When the oscillator is shut down, the ADC ceases conversions and internal PGA calibration halts. Any interface command restarts the oscillator and allows the system to resume from where it left off. Set DAC2PD to 1 to shut down DAC2 and PGA2. Set DAC1PD to 1 to shut down DAC1 and PGA1. DAC1PD and DAC2PD power down the individual blocks regardless of additional commands; however, writes are still permitted to the DACs and PGAs. For maximum accuracy, do not command a DAC calibration while a DAC is powered down or powering up. 34 Table 13.

Digital Serial Interface The MAX1385/MAX1386 contain an I2C-/SPI-compatible serial interface for configuration. Connect the modeselect input, SEL, to DGND to select I2C mode. In I2C mode, the MAX1385/MAX1386 provide address inputs A0 to A2 to allow eight devices to be connected on the same bus (see the Slave Address Byte section). Connect SEL to DVDD to select SPI mode. In SPI mode, drive A0/CSB low to select the device. The MAX1385/ MAX1386 support fast (400kHz) and high-speed (1.7MHz or 3.4MHz) data-transfer modes. Data transfers occur in 8-bit bytes with acknowledge (ACK) or not-acknowledge (NACK) bits following each byte. The MAX1385/ MAX1386 are permanent slaves and do not generate their own clock signals. Figure 11 shows the various read/write formats. Write Format Use the following sequence to write a single word (see Figure 11): 1) After generating a START condition (S or Sr), address the MAX1385/MAX1386 by sending the appropriate slave address byte with its corresponding R/W bit set to zero (see the Slave Address Byte section).

The logic state of the address inputs (A2, A1, and A0) determine the 3 LSBs of the device address (see Figure 14). Connect A2, A1, and A0 to DVDD or DGND. A maximum of eight MAX1385/MAX1386 devices can be connected on the same bus at one time using these address inputs. The 8th bit of the address byte is a R/W bit. The address byte R/W bit is set to 0 to notify the device that a command byte will be written to the device next. The address byte R/W bit is set to 1 to notify the device that a control byte will not be sent and to immediately send data from the last accessed register. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface MAX1385/MAX1386 Table 25.

The command byte consists of 8 bits and contains the address of the register. The command byte also communicates to the device whether a read or write operation occurs. See the Register Description section for details on how to access specific registers through the command byte. Data Bytes Data bytes are clocked in/out of the device with the MSB first and the LSB last (see Figure 16). See the Register Description section for a description of data bytes for each register. Bit Transfer One data bit is transferred during each SCL clock cycle. The data on SDA must remain stable during the high period of the SCL clock pulse. Changes in SDA while SCL is high and stable are considered control signals (see the START and STOP Conditions section). Both SDA and SCL remain high when the bus is not active. The interface can support fast (400kHz) and high-speed (1.7MHz or 3.4MHz) data-transfer modes. START and STOP Conditions The master initiates a transmission with a START condition (S), which is a high-to-low transition on SDA while SCL is high. The master terminates a transmission with a STOP condition (P), which is a low-to-high transition on SDA while SCL is high (Figure 17). A repeated START condition (Sr) can be used in place of a STOP condition to leave the bus active and the interface transfer speed unchanged (see the Fast/High-Speed Modes section). ______________________________________________________________________________________ 41 MAX1385/MAX1386 Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface S OR Sr Sr ADDRESS R/W 7 BITS 0 ADDRESS R/W 7 BITS 1 ACK WRITE COMMAND ACK 8 BITS ACK DATA ACK 8 BITS (MSB) ACK DATA 8 BITS (LSB) 8 BITS (MSB) DATA ACK DATA NACK Sr OR P 8 BITS (LSB) Figure 12.

Slave Address Byte Acknowledge Bits Data transfers are acknowledged with an acknowledge bit (ACK) or a not-acknowledge bit (NACK). Both the master and the MAX1385/MAX1386 generate ACK bits. To generate an ACK, SDA must be pulled low before the rising edge of the ninth clock pulse and kept low during the high period of the ninth clock pulse (see Figure 20). To generate a NACK, SDA is pulled high before the rising edge of the ninth clock pulse and is left high for the duration of the ninth clock pulse. 42 Monitoring NACK bits allow for detection of unsuccessful data transfers. NACK bits can also be used by the master to interrupt the current data transfer to start another data transfer. The MAX1385/MAX1386 do not issue an ACK after the last byte of a full reset write to the Software Clear register. Fast/High-Speed Modes At power-up, the bus timing is set for slow-/fast-speed mode (FS mode), which allows bus speeds up to 400kHz.

Execute the following procedure to change from FS mode to HS mode (see Figure 21). 1) Generate a START condition (S). 2) Send byte 00001XXX (X = don't care). The MAX1385/ MAX1386 issue a NACK bit. 3) HS mode is entered on the 10th rising clock edge. To remain in HS mode, use repeated START conditions (Sr) in place of the normal STOP conditions (P) (see Figure 22). All the same write and read formats supported in FS mode are supported in HS mode (with the replacement of repeated START conditions for STOP conditions). Generating a STOP condition (P) while in HS mode changes the bus speed back to FS mode. SPI Digital Serial Interface The MAX1385/MAX1386 feature a 4-wire SPI-compatible serial interface capable of supporting data rates up to 16MHz. Full data transfers occur in 24-bit sections. The first 8-bit byte is a command byte (C7-C0). The next 16 bits are data bits (D15-D0). Clock signal SCL may idle low or high but data is always clocked in on the rising edge of SCL (CPOL = CPHA). Write Format Use the following sequence to write 16 bits of data to a MAX1385/MAX1386 register (see Figure 18): 1) Pull CSB low to select the device. 2) Send the appropriate write command byte (see the Command Byte section). The command byte is clocked in on the rising edge of SCL. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 43 MAX1385/MAX1386 Dual RF LDMOS Bias Controllers with I2C/SPI Interface A RISING EDGE OF CSB DURING THIS PERIOD COMPLETES A VALID WRITE COMMAND.

Software must write to register 0x64 twice with bit D7 set to 0 during initialization to enable full operation. A basic initialization sequence is shown in Table 27. Regulating VGS vs. Temperature The MAX1385/MAX1386 can be used along with a microcontroller to perform closed-loop regulation of the LDMOS FET bias current. For example, software can read the temperature and use a calibrated look-up table to determine a new value for the gate drive. As an example, in noncontinuous conversion mode, read temperature from remote diode 1 by writing to the ADCCON register (0x62) with bit D1 set to 1. Wait for BUSY to go high and then low. Read the ADC result from the FIFO (0x80). The result bits D15-D12 = 0001 indicate the measurement source is the external temperature sensor DXP1/DXN1, and bits D11-D3 indicate two's-complement temperature in degrees Celsius. Bits D2, D1, and D0 are temperature subLSBs. Gate voltage drive range must be previously determined during initialization by setting the coarse DAC1 high and low limits. Write a new value to FINETHRU1 to immediately change the output GATE1 between the high and low wiper limits based on the previous temperature measurement. The regulation software may also use the alarm threshold limits to determine whether temperature and current ______________________________________________________________________________________ 47 Table 28.
