Digital Output Buffers
Figure 14 shows an equivalent circuit for a single output
buffer. Each buffer is powered by OV
DD
and OGND, iso-
lated from the ADC power and ground. The additional
N-channel transistor in the output driver allows operation
down to low voltages. The internal resistor in series with
the output makes the output appear as 50 to external
circuitry and may eliminate the need for external damping
resistors.
Maximum and Minimum Conversion Rates
The maximum conversion rate for the LTC2299 is 80Msps.
For the ADC to operate properly, the CLK signal should
have a 50% (±5%) duty cycle. Each half cycle must have
at least 5.9ns for the ADC internal circuitry to have enough
settling time for proper operation.
An optional clock duty cycle stabilizer circuit can be used
if the input clock has a non 50% duty cycle. This circuit
uses the rising edge of the CLK pin to sample the analog
input. The falling edge of CLK is ignored and the internal
falling edge is generated by a phase-locked loop. The
input clock duty cycle can vary from 40% to 60% and the
clock duty cycle stabilizer will maintain a constant 50%
internal duty cycle. If the clock is turned off for a long
period of time, the duty cycle stabilizer circuit will require
a hundred clock cycles for the PLL to lock onto the input
clock. To use the clock duty cycle stabilizer, the MODE pin
should be connected to 1/3V
DD
or 2/3V
DD
using external
resistors. The MODE pin controls both Channel A and
Channel B—the duty cycle stabilizer is either on or off for
both channels.
The lower limit of the LTC2299 sample rate is determined
by droop of the sample-and-hold circuits. The pipelined
architecture of this ADC relies on storing analog signals on
small valued capacitors. Junction leakage will discharge
the capacitors. The specified minimum operating fre-
quency for the LTC2299 is 1Msps.
