AFE5808: Found something different from the datasheet and the simulation model

Part Number: AFE5808


Tool/software:

Hi Team,


I have some questions related to the integrated circuit AFE5808. I plan to do a PCB board with it, and I have downloaded the datasheet and also the simulation model for it. However, I found something different from the datasheet and the simulation model.

As I mentioned I tried to utilize the afe5808 on PCB, and I want to simulate it first to check if I have correctly configured it with my PCB design, I downloaded the PSPICE(website recommend) and TINA as well, but from the simulation schematic, the port definition shows something different from the datasheet 

I can not find some configured pins from the simulation model, and I also found some pins that were never mentioned as a pin for afe5808, but show in the simulation model, thus making me a bit confused about the simulation like the pin called" CLKP, CLKM, CLKP_16X, CLKM_16X, CLKP_1X, CLKM_X"...I didn't find in these simulation mode 

Regards,

Josel

  • Hi,

    AFE5808 has two dies. VCA die and the ADC die. VCA die includes LNA, attenuator, filter, CW mixer. The simulation model support only TGC mode in VCA die. CLKP/CLKM is for ADC hence not available in model. CLK*_16/1x* is for CW mode which is not required when simulating for TGC mode hence you dont see those pins.
