differential clock input should be driven with a reference clock
that is twice the data input rate in baseband applications, or that
is four times the data input rate in direct IF applications in
which the quarter-wave mixing option is employed (that is,
MOD1 and MOD0 active high). The clock distribution circuitry
remains enabled, providing a 1× internal clock at PLLLOCK.
Digital input data is latched into the AD9772A on every other
rising edge of the differential clock input. The rising edge that
corresponds to the input latch immediately precedes the rising
edge of the 1× clock at PLLLOCK. Adequate setup and hold
times for the input data, as shown in
Figure 3, should be
allowed. Note that enough delay is present between
CLK+/CLK and the data input latch to cause the minimum
setup time for input data to be negative. This is noted in the
relatively weak driver output, with its output delay (tOD)
sensitive to output capacitance loading. Therefore, PLLLOCK
should be buffered for fanouts greater than 1 and/or for load
capacitance greater than 10 pF. If a data timing issue exists
between the AD9772A and its external driver device, the
1× clock appearing at PLLLOCK can be inverted via an external
gate to ensure proper setup and hold time.

SYNCHRONIZATION OF CLOCK/DATA USING
RESET WITH PLL DISABLED
The relationship between the internal and external clocks in
this mode is shown in
Figure 34. A clock at the output update
data rate (2× the input data rate) must be applied to the CLK+
and CLK inputs. Internal dividers create the internal 1× clock
necessary for the input latches. With the PLL disabled, a delayed
version of the 1× clock is present at the PLLLOCK pin. The
DAC latch is updated on the rising edge of the external 2× clock
that corresponds to the rising edge of the 1× clock. Updates to
the input data should be synchronized to this rising edge as
shown in
Figure 34. To ensure this synchronization, a Logic 1
should be momentarily applied to the RESET pin on power-up
before CLK+/CLK is applied. Momentarily applying a Logic 1
to the RESET pin brings the 1× clock at PLLLOCK to a Logic 1.
On the next rising edge of the 2× clock, the 1× clock goes to
Logic 0. The following rising edge of the 2× clock causes the 1×
clock to go to Logic 1 again and updates the data in both of the
input latches.

function timing. The RESET pin going from a high to a low
logic level enables the 1× clock output generated by the
PLLLOCK pin. If RESET goes low before the rising edge of the
2× clock as shown in
Figure 35, PLLLOCK goes high on the
following edge of the 2× clock. If RESET goes from a high to a
low logic level 600 ps or later following the rising edge of the 2×
clock, as shown in
Figure 36, there is a delay of one 2× clock
cycle before PLLLOCK goes high. In either case, as long as
RESET remains low, PLLLOCK changes state on every rising
edge of the 2× clock. As previously stated, the rising edge of the
2× clock immediately preceding the rising edge of PLLLOCK
latches data into the AD9772A input latches.
