MAX12527 Analog Inputs and Input Track-and-Hold (T/H) Amplifier Figure 3 displays a simplified functional diagram of the input T/H circuit. This input T/H circuit allows for high analog input frequencies of 175MHz and beyond and supports a V DD / 2 common-mode input voltage. The MAX12527 sampling clock controls the switched- capacitor input T/H arc[...]

Bypass REFIN and REFOUT to GND with a 0.1µF capac- itor. The REFIN input impedance is very large (>50M Ω ). When driving REFIN through a resistive divider, use resistances ≥ 10k Ω to avoid loading REFOUT. Buffered external reference mode is virtually identical to the internal reference mode except that the reference source is derived from[...]

MAX12527 sampling provides design flexibility, relaxes clock requirements, and can minimize clock jitter. System Timing Requirements Figure 5 shows the timing relationship between the clock, analog inputs, DAV indicator, DOR_ indicators, and the resulting output data.

Data Out-of-Range Indicator The DORA and DORB digital outputs indicate when the analog input voltage is out of range. When DOR_ is high, the analog input is out of range. When DOR_[...]

MAX12527 The digital outputs D0A/B–D11A/B are high impedance when the MAX12527 is in power-down (PD = 1) mode. D0A/B–D11A/B enter this state 10ns after the rising edge of PD and become active again 10ns after PD transitions low. Keep the capacitive load on the MAX12527 digital out- puts D0A/B–D11A/B as low as possible (<15pF) to avoid larg[...]

MAX12527 Applications Information Using Transformer Coupling In general, the MAX12527 provides better SFDR and THD with fully differential input signals than single- ended input drive, especially for input frequencies above 125MHz. In differential input mode, even-order harmonics are lower as both inputs are balanced, and each of the ADC inputs onl[...]

Buffered External Reference Drives Multiple ADCs The buffered external reference mode allows for more control over the MAX12527 reference voltage and allows multiple converters to use a common reference. The REFIN input impedance is >50M Ω . Figure 12 shows the MAX6029 precision 2.048V bandgap reference used as a common reference for multiple [...]

Figure 13 uses a MAX6029 precision 3.000V bandgap reference as a common reference for multiple convert- ers. A seven-component resistive divider chain follows the MAX6029 voltage reference. The 0.47µF capacitor along this chain creates a 10[...]

MAX12527 Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) THD is the ratio of the RMS sum of the first six harmon- ics of the input signal to the fundamental itself. This is expressed as: where V 1 is the fundamental amplitude, and V 2 through V 7 are the amplitudes of the 2nd- through 7th-order harmonics (HD2 through HD7). Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) SFDR i[...]

Gain Matching Gain matching is a figure of merit that indicates how well the gains between the two channels are matched to each other. The same input signal is applied to both channels and the maximum deviation in gain is report- ed (typically in dB) as gain matching. Offset Matching Like gain matching, offset matching is a figure of merit that ind[...]
