Note that LO feedthrough compensation is independent of
phase compensation. However, gain compensation can affect
the LO compensation because the gain compensation may
change the common-mode level of the signal. The dc offset of
some modulators is common-mode level dependent. Therefore,
it is recommended that the gain adjustment be performed prior
to LO compensation.
LO FEEDTHROUGH COMPENSATION
To achieve LO feedthrough compensation in a circuit, each
output of the two AUXDACs must be connected through a
100 kΩ resistor to one side of the differential DAC output. See
the Auxiliary DACS section for details of how to use AUXDACs.
The purpose of these connections is to drive a very small amount
of current into the nodes at the quadrature modulator inputs,
thereby adding a slight dc bias to one or the other of the
quadrature modulator signal inputs.
To achieve LO feedthrough compensation, the user should start
with the default conditions of the AUXDAC registers, and then
increment the magnitude of one or the other AUXDAC output
voltages. While this is being done, the amplitude of the LO
feedthrough at the quadrature modulator output should be
sensed. If the LO feedthrough amplitude increases, try either
decreasing the output voltage of the AUXDAC being adjusted,
or try adjusting the output voltage of the other AUXDAC. It
may take practice before an effective algorithm is achieved. The
AD9714/AD9715/AD9716/AD9717 evaluation board can be
used to adjust the LO feedthrough down to the noise floor,
although this is not stable over temperature.
RESULTS OF GAIN AND OFFSET CORRECTION
The results of gain and offset correction can be seen in Figure 110
and Figure 111. Figure 110 shows the output spectrum of the
quadrature demodulator before gain and offset correction.
Figure 111 shows the output spectrum after correction. The
LO feedthrough spur at 450 MHz has been suppressed to the
noise level. This result can be achieved by applying the correc-
tion, but the correction must be repeated after a large change in
temperature.
Note that gain matching improves the negative frequency image
rejection, but it is also related to the phase mismatch in the
quadrature modulator. It can be improved by adjusting the
relative phase between the two quadrature signals at the digital
side or properly designing the low-pass filter between the DACs
and quadrature modulators. Phase mismatch is frequency depen-
dent; therefore, routines must be developed to adjust it if
wideband signals are desired.
