ADC12DJ3200: ADC12DJ3200

Part Number: ADC12DJ3200

In single channel mode, data sheet recommends using INA+/- input (instead of INB) and data is sampled at rising and falling edges of CLK+/-. Therefore, if I want to sample at 1 Gsps in single channel mode, using only INA+/- (INB+/- is not connected), I would set CLK+/- = 500MHz, right? Also, while in single channel mode, using only channel A ADC, why is does Table 21, JMODE0, shows DB0-DB3 as the odd samples (S1,S3...) from the negative edge of CLK+/-? In single channel mode, channel B ADC is not used, why does it show up as the JESD204B output data?

If I run the ADC12DJ3200 in dual channel mode, CLK+/- = 1 GHz, and only driving channel A (INA+/-) while channel B is not connected, then process the JESD204B, link A only. Is this the same as running in single channel mode, CLK+/- = 0.5 GHz, only driving channel A, and processing  JESD204B, link A only?

Is dual channel mode sampling both A and B channels on the same rising edge of the input Clk+/-? The sampling instance of A relative to B is not 180 degrees out of phase from each other, right?
TADJ_A and TADJ_B are 8 bit registers that I'm assuming are defaulted to the same value at the factory. If you change one of these values, you can change the sampling instance of ADC A relative to ADC B. How are these 8 bit values defined? Is it a delay value relative to CLK+/- phase?

    RJH>> Correct.

    In single channel mode, channel B ADC is not used, why does it show up as the JESD204B output data?

    RJH>> In single channel mode the channel B ADC is used in the interleaving; hence, the samples are coming out on that link.

Is this the same as running in single channel mode, CLK+/- = 0.5 GHz, only driving channel A, and processing  JESD204B, link A only?

    RJH>> No, not quite.  In dual channel mode each ADC's data will port to its respective JESD lanes/link.  In single channel mode the data is interleaved and comes out on both links.

    RJH>> Not necessarily.  The values are trimmed at the factory based on device and mode per information in Table 86.  These are trims to account for minor process variations and will be different for each device.

  • Just to follow up on dual vs. single, if I run JMODE 2 (dual channel mode), CLK+/- = 1 GHz, and only driving channel A (INA+/-) while channel B is not connected, then process the JESD204B, link A only. Is this the same sample data as running JMODE 0 (single channel mode), CLK+/- = 1 GHz, driving channel A (INA+/-), and processing  JESD204B, link A only?

  • Hi John,

    Yes, the sample data will coming out of the ADC on link A in JMODE0 and JMODE2 when the same clock is applied to the ADC.
