DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION
The ADS5463 is a 12-bit, 500-MSPS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that operates from both a 5-V supply and
3.3-V supply, while providing LVDS-compatible digital outputs from the 3.3-V supply. The ADS5463 input buffer
isolates the internal switching of the onboard track and hold (T and H) from disturbing the signal source. An
internal reference generator is also provided to simplify the system design further. The ADS5463 has outstanding
low noise and linearity over input frequency.
The ADS5463 is available in a 84-pin ceramic nonconductive tie-bar package (HFG). The ADS5463 is built on
state-of-the-art Texas Instruments complementary bipolar process (BiCom3X) and is specified over the full
military temperature range (–55°C to 125°C Tcase).

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

(1) This CQFP package has built-in vias that electrically and thermally connect the bottom of the die to a pad on the bottom of the package.
To efficiently remove heat and provide a low-impedance ground path, a thermal land is required on the surface of the PCB directly
underneath the body of the package. During normal surface mount flow solder operations, the heat pad on the underside of the package
is soldered to this thermal land creating an efficient thermal path. Normally, the PCB thermal land has a number of thermal vias within it
that provide a thermal path to internal copper areas (or to the opposite side of the PCB) that provide for more efficient heat removal. TI
typically recommends an 11,9 mm2board-mount thermal pad. This allows maximum area for thermal dissipation, while keeping leads
away from the pad area to prevent solder bridging. A sufficient quantity of thermal/electrical vias must be included to keep the device
within recommended operating conditions. This pad must be electrically at ground potential.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Theory of Operation
The ADS5463 is a 12-bit, 500-MSPS, monolithic-pipeline, analog-to-digital converter. Its bipolar analog core
operates from 5-V and 3.3-V supplies, while the output uses a 3.3-V supply to provide LVDS-compatible outputs.
The conversion process is initiated by the rising edge of the external input clock. The differential input signal is
captured by the input track-and-hold (T&H), and the input sample is sequentially converted by a series of lower
resolution stages, with the outputs combined in a digital correction logic block. Both the rising and the falling
clock edges are used to propagate the sample through the pipeline every half clock cycle. This process results in
a data latency of 3.5 clock cycles, after which the output data is available as a 12-bit parallel word, coded in
offset binary format.
Input Configuration
The analog input for the ADS5463 consists of an analog pseudodifferential buffer followed by a bipolar transistor
track-and-hold. The analog buffer isolates the source driving the input of the ADC from any internal switching.
The input common mode is set internally through a 500-resistor connected from 2.4 V to each of the inputs.
This results in a differential input impedance of 1 k.

For a full-scale differential input, each of the differential lines of the input signal (pins 17 and 18) swings
symmetrically between 2.4 V + 0.55 V and 2.4 V 0.55 V. This means that each input has a maximum signal
swing of 1.1 Vpp for a total differential input signal swing of 2.2 Vpp. The maximum swing is determined by the
internal reference voltage generator, eliminating the need for any external circuitry for this purpose.
The ADS5463 obtains optimum performance when the analog inputs are driven differentially. The circuit in
Figure 15 shows one possible configuration using an RF transformer with termination either on the primary or on
the secondary of the transformer. In addition, the evaluation module is configured with two back-to-back
transformers, which also demonstrate good performance. If voltage gain is required, a step-up transformer can
be used.
Besides the transformer configurations, Texas Instruments offers a wide selection of single-ended operational
amplifiers that can be selected depending on the application. An RF gain-block amplifier, such as Texas
Instruments' THS9001, also can be used for high-input-frequency applications. For large voltage gains at
intermediate-frequencies in the 50-MHz 500-MHz range, the configuration shown in Figure 16 can be used.
The component values can be tuned for different intermediate frequencies. The example shown is located on the
evaluation module and is tuned for an IF of 170 MHz. More information regarding this configuration can be found
in the ADS5463 EVM User Guide (SLAU194) and the THS9001 50 MHz to 350 MHz Cascadeable Amplifier data
sheet (SLOS426).

Figure 17. Using the THS4509 With the ADS5463
For applications requiring dc-coupling with the signal source, a differential input/differential output amplifier like
the THS4509 (see Figure 17) is a good solution, as it minimizes board space and reduces the number of
components.
In this configuration, the THS4509 amplifier circuit provides 10-dB of gain, converts the single-ended input to
differential, and sets the proper input common-mode voltage to the ADS5463. The 50-resistors and 18-pF
capacitor between the THS4509 outputs and ADS5463 inputs (along with the input capacitance of the ADC) limit
the bandwidth of the signal to about 70 MHz (–3 dB). Input termination is accomplished via the 78.9-resistor
and 0.22-μF capacitor to ground, in conjunction with the input impedance of the amplifier circuit. A 0.22-μF
capacitor and 49.9-resistor are inserted to ground across the 78.9-resistor and 0.22-μF capacitor on the
alternate input to balance the circuit. Gain is a function of the source impedance, termination, and 348-
feedback resistor. See the THS4509 data sheet for further component values to set proper 50-termination for
other common gains. Because the ADS5463 recommended input common-mode voltage is 2.4 V, the THS4509
is operated from a single power supply input with V S+ = 5 V and V S– = 0 V (ground). This maintains maximum
headroom on the internal transistors of the THS4509.
Clock Inputs
The ADS5463 clock input can be driven with either a differential clock signal or a single-ended clock input, with
little or no difference in performance between both configurations. In low-input-frequency applications, where
jitter may not be a big concern, the use of a single-ended clock (see Figure 18) could save some cost and board
space without any trade-off in performance. When clocked with this configuration, it is best to connect CLK to
ground with a 0.01 μF capacitor, while CLK is ac-coupled with a 0.01-μF capacitor to the clock source, as shown
in Figure 18.

Figure 19. Differential Clock
For jitter-sensitive applications, the use of a differential clock has advantages (as with any other ADC) at the
system level. The differential clock allows for common-mode noise rejection at the PCB level. With a differential
clock, the signal-to-noise ratio of the ADC is better for high intermediate frequency applications because the
board clock jitter is superior.
A differential clock also allows for the use of bigger clock amplitudes without exceeding the absolute maximum
ratings. In the case of a sinusoidal clock, this results in higher slew rates and reduces the impact of clock noise
on jitter. Figure 19 shows this approach. See Clocking High Speed Data Converters (SLYT075) for more details.
The common-mode voltage of the clock inputs is set internally to 2.4 V using internal 1-kresistors. It is
recommended to use ac coupling, but if this scheme is not possible due to, for instance, asynchronous clocking,
the ADS5463 features good tolerance to clock common-mode variation. Additionally, the internal ADC core uses
both edges of the clock for the conversion process. Ideally, a 50% duty-cycle clock signal should be provided.
Digital Outputs
The ADC provides 12 data outputs (D11 to D0, with D11 being the MSB and D0 the LSB), a data-ready signal
(DRY), and an overrange indicator (OVR) that equals a logic high when the output reaches the full-scale limits.
The output format is offset binary. It is recommended to use the DRY signal to capture the output data of the
ADS5463. DRY is source-synchronous to the DATA/OVR bits and operates at the same frequency, creating a
half-rate DDR interface that updates data on both the rising and falling edges of DRY. The ADS5463 digital
outputs are LVDS-compatible. Due to the high data rates, care should be taken not to overload the digital outputs
with too much capacitance, which shortens the data-valid timing window. The values given for timing were
obtained with a measured 14-pF parasitic board capacitance to ground on each LVDS line (or 7-pF differential
parasitic capacitance).
Power Supplies
The ADS5463 uses three power supplies. For the analog portion of the design, a 5-V and 3.3-V supply (AVDD5
and AVDD3) are used, while the digital portion uses a 3.3-V supply (DVDD3). The use of low-noise power
supplies with adequate decoupling is recommended. Linear supplies are preferred to switched supplies; switched
supplies tend to generate more noise components that can be coupled to the ADS5463. The user may be able to
supply power to the device with a less-than-ideal supply and still achieve good performance. It is not possible to
make a single recommendation for every type of supply and level of decoupling for all systems.
The power consumption of the ADS5463 does not change substantially over clock rate or input frequency as a
result of the architecture and process.
Because there are two diodes connected in reverse between AVDD3 and DVDD3 internally, a power-up
sequence is recommended. When there is a delay in power up between these two supplies, the one that lags
could have current sinking through an internal diode before it powers up. The sink current can be large or small
depending on the impedance of the external supply and could damage the device or affect the supply source.
The best power up sequence is one of the following options (regardless of when AVDD5 powers up):
Power up both AVDD3 and DVDD3 at the same time (best scenario), OR
Keep the voltage difference less than 0.8 V between AVDD3 and DVDD3 during the power up (0.8 V is not a
hard specification - a smaller delta between supplies is safer).
If the above sequences are not practical then the sink current from the supply needs to be controlled or
protection added externally. The max transient current (on the order of msec) for the DVDD3 or AVDD3 pin is
500 mA to avoid potential damage to the device or reduce its lifetime.

SGLS378D MARCH 2008REVISED AUGUST 2012

The values for the analog and clock inputs given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings are valid when the supplies
are on. When the power supplies are off and the clock or analog inputs are still being actively driven, the input
voltage and current need to be limited to avoid device damage. If the ADC supplies are off, max/min continuous
dc voltage is ±0.95 V and max dc current is 20 mA for each input pin (clock or analog), relative to ground.
Layout Information
The evaluation board represents a good guideline of how to lay out the board to obtain the maximum
performance from the ADS5463. General design rules, such as the use of multilayer boards, single ground plane
for ADC ground connections, and local decoupling ceramic chip capacitors, should be applied. The input traces
should be isolated from any external source of interference or noise, including the digital outputs as well as the
clock traces. The clock signal traces also should be isolated from other signals, especially in applications where
low jitter is required like high IF sampling. Besides performance-oriented rules, care must be taken when
considering the heat dissipation of the device.
