FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
8 channels of LNA, VGA, AAF, ADC, and digital RF decimator
The AD9674 is designed for low cost, low power, small size, and
Low power: 150 mW per channel, TGC mode, 40 MSPS;
ease of use for medical ultrasound. It contains eight channels of a
65 mW per channel, CW mode; <30 mW at power-up
VGA with an LNA, a CW harmonic rejection I/Q demodulator
Time gain compensation (TGC) channel input-referred noise:
0.8 nV/√Hz, maximum gain
Flexible power-down modes
Fast recovery from low power standby mode: <2 μs
Low noise preamplifier (LNA)
Input-referred noise voltage: 0.78 nV/√Hz, gain = 21.6 dB
Programmable gain: 15.6 dB/17.9 dB/21.6 dB
0.1 dB compression: 1.00 V p-p/0.75 V p-p/0.45 V p-p
Flexible active input impedance matching
Variable gain amplifier (VGA)
Attenuator range: 45 dB, linear-in-dB gain control
Postamp gain: 21 dB/24 dB/27 dB/30 dB
Antialiasing filter (AAF)
with programmable phase rotation, an AAF, an ADC, a digital
HPF, and RF decimation by 2.
Each channel features a maximum gain of up to 52 dB, a fully
differential signal path, and an active input preamplifier termination.
The channel is optimized for high dynamic performance and
low power in applications where a small package size is critical.
The LNA has a single-ended-to-differential gain that is selectable
through the serial port interface (SPI). Assuming a 15 MHz noise
bandwidth (NBW) and a 21.6 dB LNA gain, the LNA input SNR is
94 dB. In CW doppler mode, each LNA output drives an I/Q
demodulator that has independently programmable phase
rotation with 16 phase settings.
Programmable second-order low-pass filter (LPF) from 8 MHz
to 18 MHz or 13.5 MHz to 30 MHz and high-pass filter (HPF)
Analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR): 75 dB, 14 bits up to 125 MSPS
Configurable serial low voltage differential signaling (LVDS)
Continuous wave (CW) doppler mode harmonic rejection I/Q
demodulator
Individual programmable phase rotation
Dynamic range per channel: >160 dBFS/√Hz
Close-in SNR: 156 dBc/√Hz, 1 kHz offset, −3 dBFS input
RF digital HPF and decimation by 2
Power-down of individual channels is supported to increase battery
life for portable applications. Standby mode allows quick power-up
for power cycling. In CW doppler operation, the VGA, AAF, and
ADC are powered down. The ADC contains several features
designed to maximize flexibility and minimize system cost, such as
a programmable clock, data alignment, and programmable digital
test pattern generation. The digital test patterns include built-in
fixed patterns, built-in pseudorandom patterns, and custom
user-defined test patterns entered via the serial port interface.
