Bit 4 to Bit 7: Interpolation Filter Select
Bits 4 to 7 define the interpolation filter characteristics and
interpolation rate.
Bits 7:4;
The interpolation factor has a direct influence on the CLK-A
output frequency. When the transmit input data multiplexer is
enabled (10-/12-Bit Mode):
where K is the interpolation factor. When the transmit input data
multiplexer is disabled (5-/6-Bit Mode):
where K is the interpolation factor.
REGISTER 8—RECEIVER AND CLOCK OUTPUT
SETTINGS
Bit 0: Rx Port Multiplexer Bypass
Setting this bit high bypasses the Rx Port output multiplexer.
This will output only the 6 MSBs of the ADC word. This mode
enables ADC sampling rates above 55 MSPS.
Bit 2: Rx Port LS Nibble First
Reconfigures the AD9876 for a Receive Mode that expects less
significant bits before the most significant bits.
Bit 3: Three-State Rx Port
This bit sets the receive output Rx [5:0] into a high impedance
Three-State Mode. It allows for sharing the bus with other devices.
Bit 4, Bit 5: Disable CLK-A, Disable CLK-B
Setting Bit 4 or Bit 5 stops CLK-A or CLK-B, respectively,
from toggling. The output is held low. Setting Bit 4 or Bit 5
fixes CLK-A or CLK-B to a low output level, respectively.
Bit 6: Invert CLK-A
Setting Bit 6 high inverts the CLK-A output signal.
Bit 7: Invert CLK-B
Setting this bit high inverts the CLK-B output signal. This effec-
tively changes the timing of the Rx [5:0] and Rx SYNC signals
from rising edge triggered to falling edge triggered with respect
to the CLK-B signal.
REGISTER F, DIE REVISION
This register stores the die revision of the chip. It is a Read-
Only Register.
PCB DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Although the AD9876 is a mixed-signal device, the part should
be treated as an analog component. The digital circuitry on-chip
has been specially designed to minimize the impact that the
digital switching noise will have on the operation of the analog

circuits. Following the power, grounding and layout recommen-
dations in this section will help you get the best performance
from the MxFE.
Component Placement
If the three following guidelines of component placement are
followed, chances for getting the best performance from the
MxFE are greatly increased. First, manage the path of return
currents flowing in the ground plane so that high frequency
switching currents from the digital circuits do not flow on the
ground plane under the MxFE or analog circuits. Second, keep
noisy digital signal paths and sensitive receive signal paths as
short as possible. Third, keep digital (noise generating) and
analog (noise susceptible) circuits as far away from each other
as possible.
In order to best manage the return currents, pure digital circuits
that generate high switching currents should be closest to the
power supply entry. This will keep the highest frequency return
current paths short and prevent them from traveling over the
sensitive MxFE and analog portions of the ground plane. Also,
these circuits should be generously bypassed at each device
which will further reduce the high frequency ground currents.
The MxFE should be placed adjacent to the digital circuits,
such that the ground return currents from the digital sections
will not flow in the ground plane under the MxFE. The analog
circuits should be placed furthest from the power supply.
The AD9876 has several pins that are used to decouple sensitive
internal nodes. These pins are REFIO, REFB, and REFT. The
decoupling capacitors connected to these points should have
low ESR and ESL. These capacitors should be placed as close
to the MxFE as possible and be connected directly to the analog
ground plane.
The resistor connected to the FSADJ pin should also be placed close
to the device and connected directly to the analog ground plane.
Power Planes and Decoupling
The AD9876 evaluation board demonstrates a good power
supply distribution and decoupling strategy. The board has four
layers: two signal layers, one ground plane, and one power plane.
The power plane is split into a 3VDD section used for the 3 V
digital logic circuits, a DVDD section used to supply the digital
supply pins of the AD9876, an AVDD section used to supply
the analog supply pins of the AD9876/AD9875, and a VANLG
section that supplies the higher voltage analog components on
the board. The 3VDD section will typically have the highest
frequency currents on the power plane and should be kept the
furthest from the MxFE and analog sections of the board. The
DVDD portion of the plane brings the current used to power
the digital portion of the MxFE to the device. This should be
treated similarly to the 3VDD power plane and be kept from
going underneath the MxFE or analog components. The MxFE
should largely sit on the AVDD portion of the power plane.
The AVDD and DVDD power planes may be fed from the same
low noise voltage source; however, they should be decoupled
from each other to prevent the noise generated in the DVDD
portion of the MxFE from corrupting the AVDD supply. This
can be done by using ferrite beads between the voltage source and
DVDD and between the source and the AVDD. Both DVDD
and AVDD should have a low ESR, bulk decoupling capacitor
