AD9911DDS

This project describes the AD9911 Direct Digital Synthesizer. It is capable of generating a sine-wave between 250Mhz and >1Hz. The created evaluation unit is descripted here.

The Hardware

  • CLK_MODE_SEL = 1.8V
  • Rset = 1k91
  • crystal 25Mhz
  • DVDD 1.8V
  • AVDD 1.8V
  • DVIO 3.3V
  • SDIO_0 MOSI
  • SDIO_2 MISO
  • PLL 20x, 500MSPS DAC
  • maximum frequency possible 250Mhz
  • maximum frequency recommended 150Mhz
  • low pass required
  • active current 120mA
  • output AC coupled

channels

There are four channels:

  • channel 0: aux channel
  • channel 1: primary channel
  • channel 2: aux channel
  • channel 3: aux channel

channel 1 is connected to the DAC. all aux channels are capable of modulating channel 1.

modes of operation

  • single tone (frequency,amplitude,phase adjustable)
  • 2 tone test mode (amplitude modulated single tone)
  • 2/4/8/16 FSK/ASK/PSK
  • frequency/amplitude/phase ramp up
  • frequency/amplitude/phase ramp down
  • frequency/amplitude/phase sweep

SPI interface

default
2-wire SPI mode, SDIO_0 is bidirectional !

  • SPI write
    • CPOL=0
    • CPHA=0
  • SPI read
    • CPOL=1
    • CPHA=1

3-wire SPI mode

  • configure 3-wire SPI mode using reg 0
  • set msb mode (default) using reg 0
  • SDIO_0 is MOSI
  • SDIO_2 is MISO

MSB/LSB mode

  • MSB
    • the Most Significant Bit is transfered first
    • the Most Significant Byte is transfered first
  • LSB
    • the Least Significant Bit is transfered first
    • the Least Significant Byte is transfered first

register select

  • register 0, 1, 2 are independent
  • channel register 0x03 - 0x18 are written to using the enable bits in register 0
  • you can write to multiple channels at once !

The Software

I've created a simple programm that runs on teensy 2.0 (ATMEGA32U4). It should run on any ATmega, just change the I/O ports.
Timings are not critical, as the ATmega is much slower than the maximum I/O updaterate of the AD9911.
Software flow:

  • write register 0 (channel select bits)
  • write register 1 and 2 (digital power down, pll multiplier)
  • write to selected channel registers 0x03 - 0x18
  • toogle I/O-Update pin

Changes applied to Hardware

  • pull PWR_DWN_CTL low
  • pull SDIO_3 low
  • terminate IDAC with 50 Ohms agains AVCC
  • terminate !IDAC with 50 Ohms agains AVCC
  • include a 5th order low pass filter
  • include a transformer
  • series resistance for SPI interface
