Shifted mode filter responses allow the pass band to be centered
around ±0.5 f
the shifted mode response does not affect the center frequency
of the signal. Instead, the pass band of the filter is simply shifted.
For example, use the response shown in Figure 67 and assume
the signal in-band is a complex signal over the bandwidth 3.2 f
to 3.3 f
the pass band becomes centered at 3.5 f
remains at the same place in the spectrum. The shifted mode
capability allows the filter pass band to be placed anywhere in
the DAC Nyquist bandwidth.
The AD9776A/AD9778A/AD9779A are dual DACs with
internal complex modulators built into the interpolating filter
response. In dual channel mode, the devices expect the real and
imaginary components of a complex signal at Digital Input Port 1
and Digital Input Port 2 (I and Q, respectively). The DAC outputs
then represent the real and imaginary components of the input
signal, modulated by the complex carrier (f
With Register 0x02, Bit 6, set, the device accepts interleaved data
on Port 1 in the I, Q, I, Q … sequence. Note that in interleaved
mode, the channel data rate at the beginning of the I and Q data
paths is now half the input data rate because of the interleaving.
The maximum input data rate is still subject to the maximum
specification of the device. This limits the synthesis bandwidth
available at the input in interleaved mode.
With Register 0x02, Bit 5 (the real mode bit), set, the Q channel
and the internal I and Q digital modulation are turned off. The
output spectrum at the I DAC then represents the signal at
Digital Input Port 1, interpolated by 1×, 2×, 4×, or 8×.
The general recommendation is that if the desired signal is
within ±0.4 × f
this, the shifted filter mode should be used. In any situation, the
total bandwidth of the signal is less than 0.8 × f
