optimum performance. The negative output compliance range
of –1.0 V is set by the breakdown limits of the CMOS process.
Operation beyond this maximum limit may result in a break-
down of the output stage and affect the reliability of the AD9762.
The positive output compliance range is slightly dependent

DIGITAL INPUTS
The AD9762’s digital input consists of 12 data input pins and a
clock input pin. The 12-bit parallel data inputs follow standard
positive binary coding where DB11 is the most significant bit
(MSB) and DB0 is the least significant bit (LSB). I

The digital interface is implemented using an edge-triggered
master slave latch. The DAC output is updated following the
rising edge of the clock as shown in Figure 1 and is designed
to support a clock rate as high as 125 MSPS. The clock can
be operated at any duty cycle that meets the specified latch
pulsewidth. The set-up and hold times can also be varied within
the clock cycle as long as the specified minimum times are met;
although the location of these transition edges may affect digital
feedthrough and distortion performance. Best performance is
typically achieved when the input data transitions on the falling edge
of a 50% duty cycle clock.
The digital inputs are CMOS compatible with logic thresholds,

The internal digital circuitry of the AD9762 is capable of operating
over a digital supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V. As a result, the

shows the equivalent digital input circuit for the data and clock
inputs. The sleep mode input is similar with the exception that
it contains an active pull-down circuit, thus ensuring that the
AD9762 remains enabled if this input is left disconnected.

Since the AD9762 is capable of being updated up to 125 MSPS,
the quality of the clock and data input signals are important
in achieving the optimum performance. The drivers of the
digital data interface circuitry should be specified to meet the
minimum set-up and hold times of the AD9762 as well as its
required min/max input logic level thresholds. Typically, the
selection of the slowest logic family that satisfies the above
conditions will result in the lowest data feedthrough and noise.
Digital signal paths should be kept short and run lengths
matched to avoid propagation delay mismatch. The insertion of
a low value resistor network (i.e., 20 Ω to 100 Ω) between the
AD9762 digital inputs and driver outputs may be helpful in
reducing any overshooting and ringing at the digital inputs that
contribute to data feedthrough. For longer run lengths and high
data update rates, strip line techniques with proper termination
resistors should be considered to maintain “clean” digital
inputs. Also, operating the AD9762 with reduced logic swings
and a corresponding digital supply (DVDD) will also reduce
data feedthrough.
The external clock driver circuitry should provide the AD9762
with a low jitter clock input meeting the min/max logic levels
while providing fast edges. Fast clock edges will help minimize
any jitter that will manifest itself as phase noise on a recon-
structed waveform. Thus, the clock input should be driven by
the fastest logic family suitable for the application.
Note, the clock input could also be driven via a sine wave,
which is centered around the digital threshold (i.e., DVDD/2),
and meets the min/max logic threshold. This will typically result
in a slight degradation in the phase noise, which becomes more
noticeable at higher sampling rates and output frequencies.
Also, at higher sampling rates, the 20% tolerance of the digital
logic threshold should be considered since it will affect the
effective clock duty cycle and subsequently cut into the required
data set-up and hold times.
SLEEP MODE OPERATION
The AD9762 has a power-down function which turns off the
output current and reduces the supply current to less than
8.5 mA over the specified supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and
temperature range. This mode can be activated by applying
a logic level “1” to the SLEEP pin. This digital input also
contains an active pull-down circuit that ensures the AD9762
remains enabled if this input is left disconnected. The SLEEP
input with active pull-down requires <40 µA of drive current.
The power-up and power-down characteristics of the AD9762
are dependent upon the value of the compensation capacitor
connected to COMP1. With a nominal value of 0.1 µF, the
AD9762 takes less than 5 µs to power down and approximately
3.25 ms to power back up. Note, the SLEEP MODE should not
be used when the external control amplifier is used as shown in
Figure 45.
