The MAX106’s flash or parallel architecture provides
the fastest multibit conversion of all common integrated
ADC designs. The key to this high-speed flash archi-
tecture is the use of an innovative, high-performance
comparator design. The flash converter and down-
stream logic translate the comparator outputs into a
parallel 8-bit output code and pass this binary code on
to the optional 8:16 demultiplexer, where primary and
auxiliary ports output PECL-compatible data at up to
300Msps per port (depending on how the demultiplex-
er section is set on the MAX106). The ideal transfer
function appears in Figure 2.
As with all ADCs, if the input waveform is changing
rapidly during conversion, ENOB and signal-to-noise
ratio (SNR) specifications will degrade. The MAX106’s
on-chip, wide-bandwidth (2.2GHz) T/H amplifier reduces
this effect and increases the ENOB performance signifi-
cantly, allowing precise capture of fast analog data at
high conversion rates.
The T/H amplifier buffers the input signal and allows a
full-scale signal input range of ±250mV. The T/H ampli-
fier’s differential 50Ω input termination simplifies inter-
facing to the MAX106 with controlled impedance lines.
Figure 3 shows a simplified diagram of the T/H amplifier
stage internal to the MAX106.
Aperture width, delay, and jitter (or uncertainty) are
parameters that affect the dynamic performance of
high-speed converters. Aperture jitter, in particular,
directly influences SNR and limits the maximum slew
rate (dV/dt) that can be digitized without a significant
contribution of errors. The MAX106’s innovative T/H
amplifier design typically limits aperture jitter to less
than 0.5ps.
