The duty cycle stabilizer uses a delay-locked loop (DLL) to
create the nonsampling edge. As a result, any changes to the
sampling frequency require approximately eight clock cycles
to allow the DLL to acquire and lock to the new rate.
Clock Jitter Considerations
High speed, high resolution ADCs are sensitive to the quality of the
clock input. The degradation in SNR at a given input frequency (f
A
)
due only to aperture jitter (t
J
) can be calculated by

In this equation, the rms aperture jitter represents the root mean
square of all jitter sources, including the clock input, analog input
signal, and ADC aperture jitter. IF undersampling applications
are particularly sensitive to jitter (see Figure 60).
The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases
where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the AD9273.
Power supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the
ADC output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal
with digital noise. Low jitter, crystal-controlled oscillators make
the best clock sources, such as the Valpey Fisher VFAC3 series.
If the clock is generated from another type of source (by gating,
dividing, or other methods), it should be retimed by the
original clock during the last step.
Refer to the AN-501 Application Note and the AN-756
Application Note for more in-depth information about how
jitter performance relates to ADCs (visit

Power Dissipation and Power-Down Mode
As shown in Figure 62, the power dissipated by the AD9273 is
proportional to its sample rate. The digital power dissipation
does not vary much because it is determined primarily by the
DRVDD supply and bias current of the LVDS output drivers.

The AD9273 features scalable LNA bias currents (see Register 0x12
in Table 17). The default LNA bias current settings are high.
Figure 63 shows the typical reduction of AVDD2 current with
each bias setting. It is also recommended to adjust the LNA
offset using Register 0x10 (see Table 17) when the LNA bias
setting is low.
