The SPI port should not be active during periods when the full dynamic performance of the converter is required. Because the Power and Ground Recommendations SCLK, CSB, and SDIO signals are typically asynchronous to the When connecting power to the AD9642, it is recommended that ADC clock, noise from these signals can degrade converter two separate 1.8 V supplies be used: use one supply for analog performance. If the on-board SPI bus is used for other devices, (AVDD) and a separate supply for the digital outputs (DRVDD). it may be necessary to provide buffers between this bus and the The designer can employ several different decoupling capacitors AD9642 to keep these signals from transitioning at the to cover both high and low frequencies. Locate these capacitors converter input pins during critical sampling periods. close to the point of entry at the PC board level and close to the pins of the part with minimal trace length. A single PCB ground plane should be sufficient when using the AD9642. With proper decoupling and smart partitioning of the PCB analog, digital, and clock sections, optimum performance can be easily achieved. Exposed Paddle Thermal Heat Slug Recommendations It is mandatory that the exposed paddle on the underside of the ADC be connected to analog ground (AGND) to achieve the best electrical and thermal performance. A continuous, exposed (no solder mask) copper plane on the PCB should mate to the AD9642 exposed paddle, Pin 0. The copper plane should have several vias to achieve the lowest possible resistive thermal path for heat dissipation to flow through the bottom of the PCB. These vias should be filled or plugged with nonconductive epoxy. To maximize the coverage and adhesion between the ADC and the PCB, overlay a silkscreen to partition the continuous plane on the PCB into several uniform sections. This provides several tie points between the ADC and the PCB during the reflow process. Using one continuous plane with no partitions guarantees only one tie point between the ADC and the PCB. See the evaluation board for a PCB layout example.

TERRIFIC RESOURCE
This company has been a terrific help to us (I work for Trican Well Service) in sourcing the Micron Ram Memory we needed for our Siemens computers. Great service! And great pricing! I know when the product is shipping and when it will arrive, all the way through the ordering process.

When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
