Single Ended vs Differential Clock Input

The ADC3664-xEP is operated using a differential or a single ended clock input where the single ended clock consumes less power consumption. However, clock amplitude impacts the ADC aperture jitter and consequently the SNR. For maximum SNR performance, a large clock signal with fast slew rates needs to be provided.

  • Differential Clock Input: The clock input is AC coupled externally. The device provides internal biasing for that use case.
  • Single Ended Clock Input: This mode needs to be configured using SPI register (0x0E, D2 and D0) or with the REFBUF/CTRL pin. In this mode, there is no internal clock biasing; thus, the clock input needs to be DC coupled around a 0.9V center. The unused input needs to be AC coupled to ground.
