Figure 75. ADC Reference and Decoupling
The ADC has an internal voltage reference and reference ampli-
fier as shown in Figure 75. The internal band gap reference
generates a stable 1 V reference level that is converted to a dif-
ferential 1 V reference centered about mid-supply (AVDD/2).
The outputs of the differential reference amplifier are available
at the REFT and REFB pins and must be properly decoupled for
optimum performance. The REFT and REFB pins are conven-
iently situated at the corners of the CSP package such that C1
(0603 type) can be placed directly across its pins. C3 and C4 can
be placed underneath C1, and C2 (10 µF tantalum) can be
placed furthest from the package.

AGC TIMING CONSIDERATIONS

When implementing a digital AGC timing loop, it is important
to consider the Rx path latency and settling time of the Rx path
in response to a change in gain setting. Figure 21 and Figure 24
show the RxPGA's settling response to a 60 dB and 5 dB change
in gain setting when using the Tx[5:0] or PGA[5:0] port. While
the RxPGA settling time may also show a slight dependency on
the LPF's cutoff frequency, the ADC's pipeline delay along with
the ADIO bus interface presents a more significant delay. The
amount of delay or latency depends on whether a half- or full-
duplex is selected. An impulse response at the RxPGA's input
can be observed after 10.0 ADC clock cycles (1/f
of a half-duplex interface and 10.5 ADC clock cycles in the case
of a full-duplex interface. This latency along with the RxPGA
settling time should be considered to ensure stability of the
AGC loop.
