This port controls the 8-bit parallel data latch and shift register. A Logic 0-to-1 transition transfers the latched data to the attenuator core (updates the gain) and simulta- neously inhibits serial data transfer into the register. A 1-to-0 transition inhibits the data latch (holds the previous gain state) and simultaneously enables the register for serial data load. 2 SDATA Serial Data Input. This digital input allows for an 8-bit serial (gain) word to be loaded into the internal register with the MSB (Most Significant Bit) first and ignored. 3 CLK Clock Input. The clock port controls the serial attenuator data transfer rate to the 8-bit master- slave register. A Logic 0-to-1 transition latches the data bit and a 1-to-0 transfers the data bit to the slave. This requires the input serial data word to be valid at or before this clock transition. 4, 28 GND Common External Ground Reference 5, 9, 10, 19, V Common Positive External Supply Voltage.

The sequence of loading the SDATA register cable modems, cable telephony systems, and CATV set-top begins on the falling edge of the DATEN pin, which activates boxes. The upstream signal is either a QPSK or QAM signal the CLK line. With the CLK line activated, data on the SDATA generated by a DSP, a dedicated QPSK/QAM modulator, or a line is clocked into the serial shift register, Most Significant Bit DAC. In all cases the signal must be low-pass filtered before (MSB) first, on the rising edge of the CLK pulses. Since a 7-bit being applied to the PA in order to filter out-of-band noise and shift register is used in the AD8326, the MSB of the 8-bit word higher order harmonics from the amplified signal. Due to the is a “don’t care” bit and is shifted out of the register on the eighth varying distances between the cable modem and the headend, clock pulse. The data is latched into the attenuator core on the the upstream PA must be capable of varying the output power rising edge of the DATEN line. This provides control over the by applying gain or attenuation. The varying output power of changes in the output signal level. The serial interface timing for the AD8326 ensures that the signal from the cable modem will the AD8326 is shown in Figures 2 and 3. The programmable have the proper level once it arrives at the headend. The upstream gain range of the AD8326 is –25.75 dB to +27.5 dB with steps signal path also contains a transformer, a diplexer, and cable split- of 0.75 dB. This provides a total gain range of 53.25 dB. The ters. The AD8326 has been designed to overcome losses associated AD8326 was characterized with a TOKO transformer (TOKO with these passive components in the upstream cable path, particu- #617DB-A0070), and the stated gain values include the losses larly in modems that support cable telephony. due to the transformer.

Because the eighth bit is shifted out of the register, the gain characteristics for Codes 128 through 255 are Operational Description identical to Codes 0 through 127, as depicted in Figure 4. The AD8326 consists of four analog functions in the transmit enable or forward mode. The input amplifier (preamp) can be 28 used single-ended or differentially. If the input is used in the 21 differential configuration, it is imperative that the input signals be 14 180 degrees out of phase and of equal amplitudes. This will 7 ensure proper gain accuracy and harmonic performance. The 0 – 7 preamp stage drives a vernier stage that provides the fine tune – 14 gain adjustment. The approximate step resolution of 0.75 dB is – 21 implemented in this stage and provides a total of approximately – 28 5.25 dB of accumulated attenuation. After the vernier stage, a 0 32 64 96 128 160 192 224 256 DAC provides the bulk of the AD8326’s attenuation (8 bits or GAIN CODE –Decimal 48 dB). The signals in the preamp and vernier gain blocks are Figure 4. Gain Code vs. Gain differential to improve the PSRR and linearity. A differential current is fed from the DAC into the output stage, which amplifies these currents to the appropriate levels necessary to drive a 75 Ω load. The output stage utilizes negative feedback to implement a differential 75 Ω output impedance, which eliminates the need for external matching resistors needed in typical video (or video filter) termination requirements. –10– REV. 0 GAIN – dB AD8326 V EE 10�F V CC 10�F 0.1�F AD8326 V 28 IN– 1 GND DATEN DATEN 27 2 SDATA SDATA V 0.1�F CC 26 3 Z = 150� IN CLK CLK V IN– 165� 25 4 GND1 V IN+ 24 5 0.1�F V V 0.1�F CC EE 23 6 TXEN V 0.1�F TXEN CC V IN+ 22 7 V 0.1�F SLEEP SLEEP EE 0.1�F 21 8 GND BYP 0.1�F 20 9 0.1�F V V 0.1�F CC CC 19 10 V V 0.1�F 0.1�F CC CC 18 11 V V 0.1�F 0.1�F EE EE 17 12 GND GND 16 13 0.1�F V V 0.1�F EE EE 15 14 V V OUT– OUT+ TOKO 617DB-A0070 TO DIPLEXER Z = 75� IN Figure 5.
