Figure 28. Example of Synchronizing Multiple AD9874s

a higher fCLK is typically more desirable given a choice, since the

first IF’s filtering requirements often depend on the transition

region between the IF frequency and the image band (i.e.,

± fCLK/4 ).

Lastly, the output SSI clock rate, fCLKOUT, and digital driver

strength should be set to their lowest possible settings to mini-

mize the potential harmful effects of digital induced noise while

preserving a reliable data link to the DSP. Note, the SSICRA,

SSICRB, and SSIORD Registers (i.e., 0x18, 0x19, and 0x1A)

provide a large degree of flexibility for optimization of the SSI

interface.

Synchronization of Multiple AD9874s

Some applications such as receiver diversity and beam steering

may require two or more AD9874s operating in parallel while

maintaining synchronization. Figure 28 shows an example of how

multiple AD9874s can be cascaded, with one device serving as

the master and the other devices serving as the slaves. In this

example, all of the devices have the exact same SPI register con-

figuration since they share the same SPI interface to the DSP.

Since the state of each of the AD9874’s internal counters is

unknown upon initialization, synchronization of the devices is

required via a SYNCB pulse (see Figure 4) to synchronize their

digital filters and ensure precise time alignment of the data streams.

Although all of the devices’ synthesizers are enabled, the LO and

CLK signals for the slaves(s) are derived from the masters’ synthe-

sizers and are referenced to an external crystal oscillator. All of

the necessary external components (i.e., loop filters, varactor, LC,

and VCO) to ensure proper closed-loop operation of these

synthesizers are included.

Note, while the VCO output of the LO synthesizer is ac-coupled

to the slave’s LO input(s), all of the CLK inputs of the devices

must be dc-coupled if the AD9874’s CLK oscillators are enabled.

This is due to the dc current required by the CLK oscillators in

each device. In essence, these negative impedance cores are oper-

ating in parallel, increasing the effective Q of the LC resonator

circuit. Note, RBIAS should be sized such that the sum of the

oscillators’ dc bias currents maintains a common-mode voltage

of around 1.6 V.
