AD9957 1 GSPS Quadrature Digital Upconverter with 18-Bit IQ Data Path and 14-Bit DAC
The reference clock input circuitry includes a crystal oscillator, a high speed, divide-by-two input, and a low noise PLL for multiplication of the reference clock frequency.
The user interface to the control functions includes a serial port easily configured to interface to the SPORT of the Blackfin® DSP and profile pins to enable fast and easy shift keying of any signal parameter (phase, frequency, or amplitude).
Applications
HFC data, telephony, and video modems
Wireless base station transmissions
Broadband communications transmissions
Internet telephony
The AD9957 functions as a universal I/Q modulator and agile upconverter for communications systems where cost, size, power consumption, and dynamic performance are critical. The AD9957 integrates a high speed, direct digital synthesizer (DDS), a high performance, high speed, 14-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC), clock multiplier circuitry, digital filters, and other DSP functions onto a single chip. It provides baseband upconversion for data transmission in a wired or wireless communications system.
The AD9957 is the third offering in a family of quadrature digital upconverters (QDUCs) that includes the AD9857 and AD9856. It offers performance gains in operating speed, power consumption, and spectral performance. Unlike its predecessors, it supports a 16-bit serial input mode for I/Q baseband data. The device can alternatively be programmed to operate either as a single tone, sinusoidal source or as an interpolating DAC.
