Equivalent Circuits
ADC Evaluation Platform
Intersil offers an ADC Evaluation platform which can be
used to evaluate any of the KADxxxxx ADC family. The
platform consists of a FPGA based data capture
motherboard and a family of ADC daughtercards. This
USB based platform allows a user to quickly evaluate the
ADC’s performance at a user’s specific application
frequency requirements. More information is available at:

Layout Considerations
PCB Layout Example
For an example application circuit and PCB layout, please
refer to the evaluation board documentation provided in
the web product folder at:
http://www.intersil.com/products/partsearch.asp?txtpro
dnr=kad5512p
There are separate evaluation boards for the 48-lead and
72-lead packages.
Split Ground and Power Planes
Data converters operating at high sampling frequencies
require extra care in PC board layout. Many complex
board designs benefit from isolating the analog and
digital sections. Analog supply and ground planes should
be laid out under signal and clock inputs. Locate the
digital planes under outputs and logic pins. Grounds
should be joined under the chip.
Clock Input Considerations
Use matched transmission lines to the transformer inputs
for the analog input and clock signals. Locate transformers
and terminations as close to the chip as possible.
Exposed Paddle
The exposed paddle must be electrically connected to
analog ground (AVSS) and should be connected to a
large copper plane using numerous vias for optimal
thermal performance.
Bypass and Filtering
Bulk capacitors should have low equivalent series
resistance. Tantalum is a good choice. For best
performance, keep ceramic bypass capacitors very close

to device pins. Longer traces will increase inductance,
resulting in diminished dynamic performance and
accuracy. Make sure that connections to ground are
direct and low impedance. Avoid forming ground loops.
LVDS Outputs
Output traces and connections must be designed for 50Ω
(100Ω differential) characteristic impedance. Keep traces
direct and minimize bends where possible. Avoid crossing
ground and power-plane breaks with signal traces.
LVCMOS Outputs
Output traces and connections must be designed for 50Ω
characteristic impedance.
Unused Inputs
Standard logic inputs (RESETN, CSB, SCLK, SDIO) which
will not be operated do not require connection to ensure
optimal ADC performance. These inputs can be left
floating if they are not used. The SDO output must be
connected to OVDD with a 4.7kΩ resistor or the ADC will
not exit the reset state. Tri-level inputs (NAPSLP,
OUTMODE, OUTFMT, CLKDIV) accept a floating input as a
valid state, and therefore should be biased according to
the desired functionality.
General PowerPAD Design
Considerations
The following figure is a generic illustration of how to use
vias to remove heat from a QFN package with an
exposed thermal pad. A specific example can be found in
the evaluation board PCB layout previously referenced.
Filling the exposed thermal pad area with vias provides
optimum heat transfer to the PCB’s internal plane(s). Vias
should be evenly distributed from edge-to-edge on the
exposed pad to maintain a constant temperature across the
entire pad. Setting the center-to-center spacing of the vias
