OVERVIEW OF RAM PLAYBACK MODES
The RAM is operational in any one of four different
playback modes.
•
•
•
•
RAM playback is only functional when the AD9957 is pro-
grammed for either the QDUC or interpolating DAC mode.
The RAM playback mode is selected via the 3-bit RAM play-
back mode word located in each of the RAM segment registers.
Thus, the RAM playback mode is segment dependent. The
RAM playback mode bits are detailed in Table 5.

The continuous bidirectional ramp and continuous recirculate
modes are not available when the baseband scaling multipliers
serve as the destination of RAM playback.

RAM Ramp-Up Mode
In ramp-up mode, upon assertion of an I/O update or a state
change on the RT pin, the RAM begins playback operation
using the parameters programmed into the selected RAM seg-
ment register. Data is extracted from RAM over the specified
address range contained in the start address and end address of
the active RAM segment register. The data is delivered at the
appropriate rate and to the destination as specified by the RAM
playback destination bit.
The playback rate is governed by the timer internal to the RAM
state machine and its period (Δt) is determined by the state of the
RAM playback destination bit as detailed in the RAM playback
operation section.
The internal state machine begins extracting data from the
RAM at the start address and continues to extract data until it
reaches the end address. Upon reaching this address, the state
machine halts.
A graphic representation of the ramp-up mode appears in
Figure 43. The upper trace shows the progression of the RAM
address from the start address to the end address for the active
RAM segment register. The address value advances by one with
each timeout of the timer internal to the state machine. The circled
numbers indicate specific events, explained as follows:
Event 1—an I/O update or state transition on the RT pin. This
event initializes the state machine to the start address of the active
RAM segment register.
Event 2—the state machine reaches the end address of the active
RAM segment register and halts.
