MODES OF OPERATION

DDS MODES OF OPERATION

Single-Tone Mode

This is the default mode of operation for the DDS core. The

phase accumulator runs at a fixed frequency, as per the active

profile’s tuning word. Likewise, any phase offset applied to the

signal is a static value, which comes from the phase offset word

of the active profile. The device has eight different phase/fre-

quency profiles, each with its own 48-bit frequency tuning word

and 14-bit phase offset word. Profiles are selected by applying

their digital value on the profile-select pins (PS2, PS1, and PS0).

It is impossible to use the phase offset of one profile and the

frequency tuning word of another.

Linear Sweep Mode

This mode is entered by setting the linear sweep enable bit in

the control register (CFR1<17> = 1) but leaving the linear

sweep no dwell bit clear (CFR1<16> = 0). When the part is in

linear sweep mode, the frequency accumulator ramps the

output frequency of the device from a programmed lower

frequency to a programmed upper frequency or from the upper

frequency to the lower frequency. The lower frequency is set by the

frequency tuning word stored in Profile 0, and the upper frequency

is set by the frequency tuning word stored in Profile 1.

The combinational logic within the frequency accumulator

requires that the value stored at FTW0 must always be less than

the value stored in FTW. The direction of the sweep (sweep up

to FTW1, sweep down to FTW0) is controlled by the PS0 pin. A

high state on this pin tells the part to sweep up to FTW1. A low

state on this pin tells the part to sweep down to FTW0. The

frequency accumulator requires four values, which are stored in

the register map. First, it requires an incremental frequency

value that tells the frequency accumulator how big of a fre-

quency step to take each time it takes a step when ramping up.

This value is stored in the rising delta frequency tuning word

(RDFTW). The second value required is the rate at which the

frequency accumulator should increment, that is, how often it

should take a step. This value is stored in the rising sweep ramp

rate word (RSRR). The RSRR value specifies the number of

SYNC_CLK cycles the frequency accumulator should count

between steps. The third and fourth values are the falling ramp

equivalents, the falling delta frequency tuning word (FDFTW)

and the falling sweep ramp rate (FSRR).

When operating in the linear sweep default mode, combina-

tional logic ensures that the part never ramps up past FTW1,

even if the next RDFTW increments the frequency past FTW1.

Once it reaches FTW1, as long as the PS0 pin stays high, the

frequency remains at FTW1. Likewise, the internal logic ensures

that the part never ramps down past FTW0, even if the next

RDFTW increments the frequency past FTW0. During a sweep

down (PS0 = 0), once the part reaches FTW0, as long as the PS0

pin stays low, the frequency remains at FTW0.

If a sweep is interrupted and the state of the PS0 pin is changed

during the midst of a sweep, the part begins sweeping in the

new direction at the rate dictated by the relevant delta fre-

quency tuning word and sweep ramp rate word. For example, if

the part is programmed to sweep from 100 MHz to 140 MHz

and to take 1 kHz steps every 1000 sync clock cycles (rising and

falling sweep words are the same), it would take four seconds to

complete a sweep. If the PS0 has been low for a very long time

(more than four seconds), changing the PS0 pin to high starts a

sweep up to 140 MHz. If after two seconds (not enough time for

a full sweep in this example) the PS0 pin is brought low again,

the part begins sweeping down from the current value, roughly

120 MHz.

Linear Sweep No Dwell Mode

This mode is entered by setting the linear sweep enable bit and

the linear sweep no dwell bit in the control register

(CFR<17:16> =1). When the part is in linear sweep no dwell

mode, the frequency accumulator ramps the output frequency

of the device from a programmed lower frequency to a pro-

grammed upper frequency. Upon reaching the upper frequency,

the accumulator returns to the lower frequency directly, without

ramping back down. Unlike the default mode of the linear

sweep, this mode uses only the rising delta frequency tuning

word (RDFTW) and the rising sweep ramp rate (RSRR). The

operation is still controlled by the PS0 pin. In this mode, how-

ever, it acts as a trigger for the sweep, not a direction bit. Once a

PS0 low-to-high transition is detected, the part completes the

entire sweep, regardless of whether or not the PS0 pin is

changed back to low during the sweep. After the sweep is com-

pleted, another sweep may be initiated by applying another

rising edge on the PS0 pin. This means that the PS0 pin needs to

be brought low prior to the next sweep.

SYNCHRONIZATION MODES FOR MULTIPLE DEVICES

In a DDS system, the SYNC_CLK is derived internally off the

master system clock, SYSCLK, with a ÷4 divider. Because the

divider does not power up to a known state, it is possible for

multiple devices in a system to have staggered clock-phase

relationships. This is because each device could potentially gen-

erate the SYNC_CLK rising edge from any one of four rising

edges of SYSCLK. This ambiguity can be resolved by employing

digital synchronization logic to control the phase relationships

of the derived clocks among different devices in the system. It is

important to note that the synchronization functions included

on the AD9956 control only the timing relationships among

different digital clocks. They do not compensate for the analog

timing skew on the system clock due to mismatched phase

relationships on the input clock, REFCLK. Figure 28 illustrates

this concept.
