GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9851 is a highly integrated device that uses advanced
DDS technology, coupled with an internal high speed, high
performance D/A converter, and comparator, to form a dig i tal ly
programmable frequency synthesizer and clock generator func-
tion. When referenced to an accurate clock source, the AD9851
generates a stable frequency and phase-programmable digitized
analog output sine wave. This sine wave can be used directly as
a frequency source, or internally converted to a square wave for
agile-clock generator applications. The AD9851’s innovative
high speed DDS core accepts a 32-bit frequency tuning word,
which results in an output tuning res o lu tion of approximately
0.04 Hz with a 180 MHz system clock. The AD9851 con tains
a unique 6
REFCLK Multiplier circuit that eliminates the
need for a high speed reference oscillator. The 6
REFCLK
Multiplier has min i mal impact on SFDR and phase noise char-
ac ter is tics. The AD9851 provides ve bits of programmable
phase mod u la tion resolution to enable phase shifting of its
output in in cre ments of 11.25°.
The AD9851 contains an internal high speed comparator that
can be con gured to accept the (externally)  ltered output of the
DAC to generate a low jitter output pulse.
The frequency tuning, control, and phase modulation words are
asynchronously loaded into the AD9851 via a parallel or serial
loading format. The parallel load format consists of ve it er a tive
loads of an 8-bit control word (byte). The rst 8-bit byte controls
output phase, 6
REFCLK Multiplier, power-down enable and
loading for mat; the remaining bytes comprise the 32-bit frequency
tuning word. Serial loading is accomplished via a 40-bit serial data
stream entering through one of the parallel input bus lines. The
AD9851 uses advanced CMOS technology to provide this break-
through level of functionality on just 555 mW of power dissipation
(5 V supply), at the maximum clock rate of 180 MHz.
The AD9851 is available in a space-saving 28-lead SSOP,
surface-mount package that is pin-for-pin compatible with the
popular AD9850 125 MHz DDS. It is speci ed to operate over
the extended industrial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C
at >3.0 V supply voltage. Below 3.0 V, the speci cations apply
over the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 85°C.
