AD9268
The signal characteristics must be considered when selecting
a transformer. Most RF transformers saturate at frequencies
below a few megahertz (MHz). Excessive signal power can also
cause core saturation, which leads to distortion.
At input frequencies in the second Nyquist zone and above, the
noise performance of most amplifiers is not adequate to achieve
the true SNR performance of the AD9268. For applications in
which SNR is a key parameter, differential double balun coupling
is the recommended input configuration (see Figure 68). In this
configuration, the input is ac-coupled, and the CML is provided
to each input through a 33 Ω resistor. These resistors compensate
for losses in the input baluns to provide a 50 Ω impedance to
the driver.
In the double balun and transformer configurations, the value of
the input capacitors and resistors is dependent on the input fre-
quency and source impedance and may need to be reduced or
removed. Table 10 displays recommended values to set the RC
network. At higher input frequencies, good performance can be

achieved by using a ferrite bead in series with a resistor and
removing the capacitors. However, these values are dependent
on the input signal and should be used only as a starting guide.

An alternative to using a transformer-coupled input at fre-
quencies in the second Nyquist zone is to use the
differential driver. An example is shown in Figure 69. See the
