Product details
Overview
AD9613BCPZ-170 from Analog Devices is a dual 12-bit, 170 MSPS analog-to-digital converter optimized for IF sampling in communications receivers. It features LVDS outputs, internal voltage reference, 1.8 V supply operation, and supports up to 400 MHz input frequencies with 95 dB channel isolation. It is used in TD-SCDMA and WiMAX baseband digitization where high dynamic range and low crosstalk are critical.
For engineers reviewing the AD9613BCPZ-170 datasheet, AD9613BCPZ-170 pinout, AD9613BCPZ-170 application, or AD9613BCPZ-170 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-channel timing behavior, and real-world deployment context for diversity radio and I/Q demodulation systems.
Technical Context
The AD9613BCPZ-170 implements two independent pipelined ADC cores with integrated error correction logic, each supporting differential analog inputs up to 400 MHz full-power bandwidth. Its duty cycle stabilizer (DCS) compensates for clock asymmetry, enabling stable performance at 170 MSPS without external clock conditioning.
Dual-channel data is output via parallel LVDS ports in either interleaved or channel-multiplexed format, synchronized using the dedicated SYNC input. Serial configuration uses a 3-wire SPI interface (CSB, SCLK, SDIO) with register readback capability and programmable power-down modes.

Pinout & Package
The AD9613BCPZ-170 is housed in a 64-lead LFCSP (9 mm × 9 mm) package with exposed paddle requiring soldering to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

FAQ
What is the maximum analog input frequency supported by the AD9613BCPZ-170?
The AD9613BCPZ-170 has a full-power bandwidth of 1000 MHz, meaning it maintains specified AC performance (e.g., SNR, SFDR) for input signals up to 400 MHz. This enables direct IF sampling of cellular and WiMAX signals without image-reject filtering constraints typical of lower-bandwidth ADCs. The device's proprietary differential input architecture sustains 69.5 dBFS SNR even at 185 MHz input frequency.
Does the AD9613BCPZ-170 require an external voltage reference?
No, the AD9613BCPZ-170 integrates a precision internal voltage reference, eliminating the need for external reference components. This simplifies PCB layout, reduces bill-of-materials cost, and improves temperature stability-key for field-deployed communications equipment. The internal reference sets the 1.75 Vp-p nominal full-scale input range and remains stable across the −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
How does the SYNC input function in multi-ADC synchronization with the AD9613BCPZ-170?
The SYNC input on the AD9613BCPZ-170 provides deterministic alignment of sampling edges across multiple devices. When asserted synchronously with the ADC clock, it resets internal pipeline stages to ensure sub-cycle phase coherence between AD9613BCPZ-170 units. This is essential for phased-array radar and MIMO systems where inter-channel timing error must remain below 10 ps to avoid beam distortion.
What LVDS output modes does the AD9613BCPZ-170 support?
The AD9613BCPZ-170 supports two LVDS output configurations: interleaved mode (single 12-bit bus carrying time-multiplexed Ch A/Ch B data) and channel-multiplexed (even/odd) mode (separate 12-bit buses for each channel). Mode selection is controlled via SPI register settings. Both modes comply with ANSI-644 levels, offering 250–450 mV differential swing and 1.15–1.35 V common-mode offset for reliable FPGA interfacing.
Can the AD9613BCPZ-170 operate with a 3.3 V digital supply?
No-the AD9613BCPZ-170 requires strictly 1.8 V supplies: AVDD (analog) and DRVDD (digital output driver). Applying 3.3 V to either supply violates Absolute Maximum Ratings and risks permanent damage. The device draws 241 mA from AVDD and 159 mA from DRVDD at 170 MSPS, totaling 738 mW. Power sequencing must follow AVDD before DRVDD, with both rails ramping monotonically.
