Product details
Overview
AD805BN from Analog Devices is a data retiming phase-locked loop IC designed for clock recovery and NRZ data retiming at 155.52 Mbps in STM-1/STS-3 telecom systems. It operates with an external VCXO, delivers 0.6° rms output jitter, supports ±50 ppm tracking range, and functions across –40°C to +85°C in regenerative repeater applications.
For engineers reviewing the AD805BN datasheet, AD805BN pinout, AD805BN application, or AD805BN equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, jitter tolerance/transfer performance per CCITT G.958 Type A/B, static phase error (7–33°), acquisition time (30–44 bit periods), and VCXO control interface details critical for telecom clock regeneration design.
Technical Context
The AD805BN implements a dual-loop architecture: a high-speed internal delay-locked loop using an on-chip voltage-controlled phase shifter (VCPS) with ≥2 UI range and ~3 MHz bandwidth handles wideband jitter accommodation, while an external VCXO-based frequency control loop tracks low-frequency jitter components. Both loops share a common control voltage path.
This architecture eliminates jitter peaking by placing the stabilizing zero in the feedback path (within the VCPS), resulting in a closed-loop jitter transfer function with no zero-unlike conventional second-order PLLs. The circuit meets CCITT G.958 STM-1 Type A jitter tolerance and Type B jitter transfer requirements, including 30 kHz corner frequency and <0.12 dB peaking.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock recovery and data retiming applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADN2812 | Monolithic 155 Mbps CDR with integrated VCO; no external VCXO required; higher power (550 mW); supports 1.25 Gbps upgrade path. | Used in newer designs where board space and supply count are constrained; lacks AD805BN's VCXO flexibility and ultra-low jitter floor. | Select ADN2812 when migrating to integrated solutions and accepting trade-offs in jitter performance and external component count. |
| ICS87201 | 155/622 Mbps dual-rate CDR; uses external VCXO but requires separate loop filter; jitter transfer bandwidth fixed at 12 kHz vs. AD805BN's 10 kHz. | Deployed in multi-rate line cards needing backward compatibility; does not meet CCITT G.958 Type A mask below 300 Hz. | Choose ICS87201 only if dual-rate support is mandatory and sub-300 Hz jitter tolerance is not required. |
Compared with ADN2812 and ICS87201, the AD805BN uniquely delivers fundamentally no jitter peaking, fastest acquisition (<44 bit periods), and lowest output jitter (0.6° rms) when paired with high-stability VCXOs - making it optimal for legacy STM-1 regenerator upgrades demanding strict CCITT G.958 compliance.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the AD805BN in telecom systems?
The AD805BN is a dedicated data retiming phase-locked loop IC that recovers a clean 155.52 MHz clock and retimes NRZ data streams in STM-1/STS-3 optical transmission systems. Its core function is to eliminate accumulated jitter from degraded input signals, enabling reliable regeneration per CCITT G.958 standards. The AD805BN achieves this by coordinating an external VCXO with its internal voltage-controlled phase shifter and phase detector - a capability central to its role in regenerative repeaters and line interface units.
Does the AD805BN require an external VCXO to operate?
Yes, the AD805BN requires an external voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) to perform clock recovery and data retiming. It does not contain an integrated VCO. The AD805BN generates a control voltage (pin 12) that tunes the VCXO's output frequency to match the incoming data rate. Verified compatible VCXOs include the Vectron C0-434Y and AT&T 157-Type, both specified for 155.52 MHz center frequency, ±50 ppm tuning range, and positive monotonic transfer function. Without this external VCXO, the AD805BN cannot establish or maintain lock.
How does the AD805BN achieve "fundamentally no jitter peaking"?
The AD805BN eliminates jitter peaking by implementing the loop-stabilizing zero inside the feedback path of its on-chip voltage-controlled phase shifter (VCPS), rather than in the forward path like conventional second-order PLLs. This architectural choice ensures the zero does not appear in the closed-loop jitter transfer function - a key distinction confirmed in the AD805BN datasheet's THEORY OF OPERATION section. As a result, the AD805BN exhibits flat jitter gain (<0.12 dB peaking) across its bandwidth, preventing dangerous jitter accumulation in cascaded regenerator chains - a critical advantage over traditional PLLs where peaking degrades system-level jitter budgets.
What are the power supply requirements for the AD805BN?
The AD805BN supports single-supply operation at either –5.2 V (VEE) or +5 V (VCC), with absolute maximum ratings of –6 V and +6 V respectively. At –5.2 V, it draws 70–95 mA (typ. 90 mA), consuming ~375 mW. The device mandates separate analog and digital ground planes, decoupling capacitors (10 µF tantalum + 0.1 µF ceramic per supply pin), and individual VEE connections to all differential I/O terminations to maintain jitter performance. These requirements are strictly defined in the AD805BN datasheet's "USING THE AD805" section and must be followed to achieve specified 0.6° rms output jitter and CCITT G.958 compliance.
Can the AD805BN be used with SAW filters instead of a VCXO?
Yes, the AD805BN can be used with a 155.52 MHz surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter for clock recovery and data retiming, as documented in the "APPLICATIONS" section of the AD805BN datasheet. In this configuration, the SAW filter generates a coarse clock, and the AD805BN's internal data retiming loop - comprising its phase detector, loop filter, and voltage-controlled phase shifter - actively servos the input data phase to align with the SAW-derived clock. This replaces discrete D-flip-flop and analog phase shifter implementations, eliminating matching sensitivity and improving temperature stability. However, overall jitter performance becomes dependent on the SAW filter's Q-factor and phase linearity, not the AD805BN alone.
