GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD9739 is a high performance, high frequency 14-bit DAC
that provides sample rates up to 2500 MSPS, permitting
multicarrier generation up to the Nyquist frequency in
baseband mode and second and third Nyquist zones in mix
mode. It includes a serial peripheral interface (SPI) for
configuration and readback of status registers. A dual-port
LVDS interface is used to enable the high sample rate with
existing FGPA/ASIC technology. The output current can be
programmed over a range of 8.66 mA to 31.66 mA. The
AD9739 is manufactured on a 0.18 μm CMOS process and
operates from 1.8 V and 3.3 V supplies. It is supplied in a 160-
ball chip scale ball grid array for reduced package parasitics.
