APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Input Range
The input range can be set based on the application. The
2V input range will provide the best signal-to-noise perfor-
mance while maintaining excellent SFDR. The 1V input
range will have better SFDR performance, but the SNR will
degrade by 3.8dB. See the Typical Performance Charac-
teristics section.
Driving the Clock Input
The CLK input can be driven directly with a CMOS or TTL
level signal. A sinusoidal clock can also be used along with
a low jitter squaring circuit before the CLK pin (Figure 11).
The noise performance of the LTC2228/LTC2227/LTC2226
can depend on the clock signal quality as much as on the
analog input. Any noise present on the clock signal will
result in additional aperture jitter that will be RMS summed
with the inherent ADC aperture jitter.
In applications where jitter is critical, such as when digitiz-
ing high input frequencies, use as large an amplitude as
possible. Also, if the ADC is clocked with a sinusoidal
signal, filter the CLK signal to reduce wideband noise and
distortion products generated by the source.
Figures 12 and 13 show alternatives for converting a
differential clock to the single-ended CLK input. The use of
a transformer provides no incremental contribution to
phase noise. The LVDS or PECL to CMOS translators
provide little degradation below 70MHz, but at 140MHz
will degrade the SNR compared to the transformer solu-
tion. The nature of the received signals also has a large

bearing on how much SNR degradation will be experi-
enced. For high crest factor signals such as WCDMA or
OFDM, where the nominal power level must be at least 6dB
to 8dB below full scale, the use of these translators will
have a lesser impact.
The transformer in the example may be terminated with
the appropriate termination for the signaling in use. The
use of a transformer with a 1:4 impedance ratio may be
desirable in cases where lower voltage differential signals
are considered. The center tap may be bypassed to ground
through a capacitor close to the ADC if the differential
signals originate on a different plane. The use of a capaci-
tor at the input may result in peaking, and depending on
transmission line length may require a 10Ω to 20Ω ohm
series resistor to act as both a low pass filter for high
frequency noise that may be induced into the clock line by
neighboring digital signals, as well as a damping mecha-
nism for reflections.
