Interfacing the ADL5375 I/Q Modulator to the AD9122 Dual Channel, 1.2 GSPS High Speed DAC

The AD9122 is a dual, 16-bit, high dynamic range digital-to- analog converter (DAC) that provides a sample rate of 1230 MSPS, permitting multicarrier generation up to the Nyquist frequency.

The AD9122 TxDAC+® includes features optimized for direct conversion transmit applications, including complex digital mod- ulation, and gain and offset compensation. The DAC outputs are optimized to interface seamlessly with analog quadrature modulators, such as the ADL537x F-MOD series from Analog Devices, Inc. A 4-wire serial port interface provides for program- ming/readback of many internal parameters. Full-scale output current can be programmed over a range of 8.7 mA to 31.7 mA. The AD9122 comes in a 72-lead LFCSP.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

1. Ultralow noise and intermodulation distortion (IMD) enable high quality synthesis of wideband signals from baseband to high intermediate frequencies (IF).

2. Proprietary DAC output switching technique enhances dynamic performance.

3. Current outputs are easily configured for various single- ended or differential circuit topologies.

4. Flexible LVDS digital interface allows the standard 32-wire bus to be reduced to one-half or one-quarter of the width.

AD9122评估板

The AD9122 Evaluation Board connects to the Analog Devices Digital Pattern Generator (DPG2) to allow for quick evaluation of the AD9122. The DPG2 allows the user to create many types of digital vectors and transmit these at speed to the AD9122 in any of the AD9122 operating modes. The AD9122 evaluation board is configured over USB with accompanying PC software.

AD9122高速DAC和ADL5373 I-Q调制器接口解决方案

This circuit provides a simple and flexible interface between the AD9122 dual high speed TxDAC digital-to-analog converter and the ADL5375-05 broadband I/Q modulator.Because the DAC outputs and ADL5375-05 I/Q modulator inputs share a common bias level of 0.5 V, there is no need for any active or passive level shifting circuitry. The dc coupled interface facilitates I/Q modulator local oscillator (LO) leakage compensation by the DAC.

The 1.2 GSPS AD9122 DAC sampling rate and the wide bandwidth of the ADL5375-05 modulator I and Q inputs ensure that both zero-IF (ZIF) or complex-IF (CIF) architectures can be supported. In addition to filtering Nyquist images, the baseband filter provides excellent rejection of both differential-mode and common-mode DAC spurs.
