Introduction
Figure 6. ADC3xxxx ADC Input Circuit options
shows the ADC3xxxx clock input circuit. The clock signal will go through 1:4 impedance ratio
transformer to increase the clock amplitude by two (that is, 1:4 impedance ratio equals to 1:2 voltage
ratio). The two 100-
Ω
resistors will impedance transform back to the primary side as 50-
Ω
load impedance
for the signal source generator. For ADC evaluation, set the signal generator output to approxi10
dBm.
