DIFFERENTIAL COUPLING USING AN OP AMP
An op amp can also be used to perform a differential-to-single
ended conversion, as shown in Figure 99. This has the added
benefit of providing signal gain as well. In Figure 99, the
AD9777 is configured with two equal load resistors, R
25 Ω. The differential voltage developed across I
converted to a single-ended signal via the differential op amp
configuration. An optional capacitor can be installed across
I
addition of this capacitor also enhances the op amp’s distortion
performance by preventing the DAC’s fast slewing output from
overloading the input of the op amp.
The common-mode (and second-order distortion) rejection of
this configuration is typically determined by the resistor
matching. The op amp used must operate from a dual supply
since its output is approximately ±1.0 V. A high speed amplifier,
such as the AD8021, capable of preserving the differential
performance of the AD9777 while meeting other system level
objectives (for example, cost, power) is recommended. The op
amp’s differential gain, gain setting resistor values, and full-scale
output swing capabilities should all be considered when
optimizing this circuit. R
required on the op amp output. In Figure 99, AVDD, which is
the positive analog supply for both the AD9777 and the op amp,
is also used to level shift the differential output of the AD9777
to midsupply (that is, AVDD/2).
INTERFACING WITH THE AD8345 QUADRATURE
MODULATOR
The AD9777 architecture was defined to operate in a transmit
signal chain using an image reject architecture. A quadrature
modulator is also required in this application and should be
designed to meet the output characteristics of the DAC as much
as possible. The AD8345 from Analog Devices meets many of
the requirements for interfacing with the AD9777. As with any
DAC output interface, there are a number of issues that have to
be resolved. The following sections list some of the major issues.
DAC Compliance Voltage/Input Common-Mode Range
The dynamic range of the AD9777 is optimal when the DAC
outputs swing between ±1.0 V. The input common-mode range
of the AD8345, at 0.7 V, allows optimum dynamic range to be
achieved in both components.

Gain/Offset Adjust
The matching of the DAC output to the common-mode input
of the AD8345 allows the two components to be dc-coupled,
with no level shifting necessary. The combined voltage offset of
the two parts can therefore be compensated via the AD9777
programmable offset adjust. This allows excellent LO
cancellation at the AD8345 output. The programmable gain
adjust allows for optimal image rejection as well.
The AD9777 evaluation board includes an AD8345 and
recommended interface (Figure 105 and Figure 106). On the
output of the AD9777, R9 and R10 convert the DAC output
current to a voltage. R16 can be used to do a slight common-
mode shift if necessary. The (now voltage) signal is applied to a
low-pass reconstruction filter to reject DAC images. The
components installed on the AD9777 provide a 35 MHz cutoff
but can be changed to fit the application. A balun (Mini-
Circuits ADTL1-12) is used to cross the ground plane boundary
to the AD8345. Another balun (Mini-Circuits ETC1-1-13) is
used to couple the LO input of the AD8345. The interface
requires a low ac impedance return path from the AD8345,
therefore a single connection between the AD9777 and AD8345
ground planes is recommended.
The performance of the AD9777 and AD8345 in an image
reject transmitter, reconstructing three WCDMA carriers, can
be seen in Figure 100. The LO of the AD8345 in this application
is 800 MHz. Image rejection (50 dB) and LO feedthrough
(−78 dBFS) have been optimized with the programmable
features of the AD9777. The average output power of the digital
waveform for this test was set to −15 dBFS to account for the
peak-to-average ratio of the WCDMA signal.
