GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD6641 is a 250 MHz bandwidth digital predistortion
(DPD) observation receiver that integrates a 12-bit 500 MSPS
ADC, a 16k × 12 FIFO, and a multimode back end that allows
users to retrieve the data through a serial port (SPORT), the SPI
interface, a 12-bit parallel CMOS port, or a 6-bit DDR LVDS
port after being stored in the integrated FIFO memory. It is opti-
mized for outstanding dynamic performance and low power
consumption and is suitable for use in telecommunications
applications such as a digital predistortion observation path
where wider bandwidths are desired. All necessary functions,
including the sample-and-hold and voltage reference, are
included on the chip to provide a complete signal conversion
solution.
The on-chip FIFO allows small snapshots of time to be captured
via the ADC and read back at a lower rate. This reduces the
constraints of signal processing by transferring the captured
data at an arbitrary time and at a much lower sample rate. The
FIFO can be operated in several user-programmable modes. In
the single capture mode, the ADC data is captured when sig-
naled via the SPI port or the use of the external FILL± pins. In
the continuous capture mode, the data is loaded continuously
into the FIFO and the FILL± pins are used to stop this operation.
