Figure 75. DDC NCO Frequency Tuning Word Selection—Complex Inputs

DDC NCO AND MIXER LOSS AND SFDR

When mixing a real input signal down to baseband, 6 dB of loss

is introduced in the signal due to filtering of the negative image.

An additional 0.05 dB of loss is introduced by the NCO. The

total loss of a real input signal mixed down to baseband is

6.05 dB. For this reason, it is recommended that the user

compensate for this loss by enabling the 6 dB of gain in the gain

stage of the DDC to recenter the dynamic range of the signal

within the full scale of the output bits.

When mixing a complex input signal down to baseband, the

maximum value that each I/Q sample can reach is 1.414 × full

scale after it passes through the complex mixer. To avoid

overrange of the I/Q samples and to keep the data bit widths

aligned with real mixing, 3.06 dB of loss is introduced in the

mixer for complex signals. An additional 0.05 dB of loss is

introduced by the NCO. The total loss of a complex input signal

mixed down to baseband is −3.11 dB.

The worst case spurious signal from the NCO is greater than

102 dBc SFDR for all output frequencies.

NUMERICALLY CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR

The AD9694 has a 48-bit NCO for each DDC that enables the

frequency translation process. The NCO allows the input

spectrum to be tuned to dc, where it can be effectively filtered

by the subsequent filter blocks to prevent aliasing. The NCO

can be set up by providing a frequency tuning word (FTW) and

a phase offset word (POW).

Setting Up the NCO FTW and POW

The NCO frequency value is given by the 32-bit twos

complement number entered in the NCO FTW. Frequencies

between −fS/2 and +fS/2 (fS/2 excluded) are represented using

the following frequency words:



0x800 represents a frequency of −fS/2.



0x000 represents dc (frequency is 0 Hz).



0x7FF represents a frequency of +fS/2 − fS/212.

The NCO frequency tuning word can be calculated using the

following equation:

where:

NCO_FTW is a 48-bit twos complement number representing

the NCO FTW.

fC is the desired carrier frequency in Hz.

fS is the AD9694 sampling frequency (clock rate) in Hz.

round( ) is a rounding function. For example, round(3.6) = 4

and for negative numbers, round(–3.4) = −3.

mod( ) is a remainder function. For example, mod(110,100) =

10 and for negative numbers, mod(–32,10) = −2.

Note that this equation applies to the aliasing of signals in the

digital domain (that is, aliasing introduced when digitizing

analog signals).
