CLC532 High Speed 2:1 Analog Multiplexer
General Description
The CLC532 is a high speed 2:1 multiplexer with active input and output stages. The CLC532 innovative design employs a closed loop design which dramatically improves accuracy. This monolithic device is constructed using an advanced high performance bipolar process. The CLC532 has been specifically designed to provide settling times of 17ns to 0.01%. Fast settling time, coupled with the adjustable bandwidth, and channel-to-channel isolation is better than 80dB @10MHz. Low distortion (−80dBc) makes the CLC532 an ideal choice for infrared and CCD imaging systems and spurious signal levels make the CLC532 a very suitable choice for both I/Q processors and receivers. The CLC532 is offered in two industrial versions, CLC532AJP\AJE, specified from −40˚C to +85˚C and packaged in 14-pin plastic DIP14-pin and SOIC packages.

The CLC532 functions with ECL, TTL and CMOS logic families, DREF controls logic compatibility. In normal operation, DREF is left floating, and the channel SELECT responds to ECL level signals, Figure 2. For TTL or CMOS level SELECT inputs (Figure 3), DREF should be tied to +5V (the CLC532 incorporates an internal 2300Ω series isolation resistor for the DREF input). For TTL or CMOS operation, the channel SELECT requires a resistor input network to prevent saturation of the channel select circuitry. Without this input network, channel SELECT logic levels above 3V will cause internal junction saturation and slow switching speeds.

Operation The CLC532 is a 2:1 analog multiplexer with high impedance buffered inputs, and a low distortion, output stage. The CLC532 employs a closed-loop design, which dramatically improves distortion performance. The channel SELECT control Figure 1 determines which of the two inputs (INA or INB) is present at the OUTPUT. Beyond the basic multiplexer function, the CLC532 offers compatibility with either TTL or ECL logic families, as well as adjustable bandwidth.

Compensation The CLC532 incorporates compensation nodes that allow both its bandwidth and its settling time/slew rate to be adjusted. Bandwidth and settling time/slew adjustments are linked, meaning that lowering the bandwidth also lowers slew rate and lengthens settling time. Proper compensation is necessary to optimize system performance. Time domain applications should generally be optimized for lowest RMS noise at the CLC532 output, while maintaining settling time and slew rate at adequate levels to meet system needs. Frequency Domain applications should generally be optimized for maximally flat frequency response.

Input Shielding The CLC532 has been designated for use in high speed wide dynamic range systems. Guarding traces and the use of the ground pins separating the analog inputs are recommended to maintain high isolation (Figure 6). Likely sources of noise and interference that may couple onto the inputs, are the logic signals and power supplies to the CLC532. Other types if clock and signal traces should not be overlooked, however.

FIGURE 6. Alternate Layout Using Guard Ring The general rule in maintaining isolation has two facets, minimize the primary return ground current path impedances back to the respective signal sources, while maximizing the impedance associated with common or secondary ground current return paths. Success or failure to optimize input signal isolation can be measured directly as the isolation between the input channels with the CLC532 removed from circuit. The channel-to -channel isolation of the CLC532 can never be better than the isolation level present at its inputs. Special attention must be paid to input termination resistors. Minimizing the return current path that is common to both of the input termination resistors is essential. In the event that a ground return current from one input termination resistor is able to find a secondary path back to its signal source (which also happens to be common with either the primary or secondary return path for the second input termination resistor), a small voltage can appear across the second input termination resistor. The small voltage seen across the second input termination resistor will be highly correlated with the signal generating the initial return currents. This situation will severely degrade channel-to-channel isolation at the input of the CLC532, even if the CLC532 were removed from circuit. Poor isolation at the input will be transmitted directly to the output. Use of “small” value input termination resistors will also improve channel-to-channel isolation. However, extremely low values ( < 25Ω) tend to stress the driving source’s ability to provide a high-quality input signal to the CLC532. Higher values tend to aggravate any layout dependent crosstalk. 75Ω to 50Ω is a reasonable target, but the lower the better.

FIGURE 5. CCOMP for Maximally Flat Frequency Response Power Supplies and Grounding Proper power supply bypassing and grounding is essential to the CLC532’s operation. 0.1µF to .1µF ceramic chip capacitor should be located very close to the individual power supply pins. Larger +6.8µF tantalum capacitors should be used within a few inches of the CLC532. The ground connections for these larger by-pass capacitors should be symmetrically located relative the CLC532 output load ground connection. Harmonic distortion can be heavily influenced by non-symmetric decoupling capacitor grounding. The smaller chip capacitors located directly at the power supply pins are not particularly susceptible to this effect. Separation of analog and digital ground planes is not recommended. In most cases, a single low impedance ground

Combining Two Signals in ADC Applications The CLC532 is applicable in a wide range of circuits and applications. A classic example of this flexibility is combining two or more signals for digitization by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). A clear understanding of both the multiplexer and the ADC’S operation is needed to optimize this configuration. To obtain the best performance from the combination, the output of the CLC532 must be an accurate representation of the selected input during the ADC conversion cycle. The time at which the ADC saples the input varies with the type is ADC that is being used. Subranging ADCs usually have a Track-and-Hold (T/H) at their input. For a successful combination of the multiplexer and the ADC, the multiplexer timing and the T/H timing must be compatible. When the ADC is given a converter command, the T/H transitions from all caps Track mode to all caps Hold mode. The delay between the converter command and this transition is usually specified as Aperture Delay or as Sampling Time Offset. To maximize the time that the multiplexer output has to settle, and that the T/H has to acquire the signal, the multiplexer should begin its transition from one input to the other immediately after the T/H transition into HOLD mode. Unfortunately it is during the initial portion of the HOLD period that a subranging ADC performs analog processing of the sampled signal. High slew rate transitions on the input during this time may have a detrimental effect on the conversion accuracy. To minimize the effects of high input slew rates, one of two strategies that can employed. Strategy one applies when the sampling rate of the system is below the rated speed of the ADC. For this case, the CLC532 SELECT timing is delayed until after the multiplexer transition takes place, while the A/D has completed one conversion cycle and is waiting for the next convert command. As an example, if a CLC935 (15MSPS) ADC is being used at 10MSPS, the conversion takes place in the first 67ns after the CONVERT command. The next 33ns are spent waiting for the next CONVERT command. This quite period would be an ideal place to switch the multiplexer from one channel to the next.

DS012716-43
FIGURE 7. Recommend CCOMP vs. ADC Sample Rate Strategy two involves lowering the slew rate at the input of the ADC so that less high frequency to feed through to the hold capacitor during HOLD mode. The CLC532 output signal can be slew limited by increasing its compensation capacitors. This approach also has the advantage of limiting the excess noise passed through the CLC532 to the ADC. Figure 7 shows the recommended CCOMP values as a function of ADC sample rate. Since the optimal values will change from one ADC type to the next, this graph should be used as a starting point for CCOMP selection. Both CCOMP capacitors should be the same value to maintain output symmetry. Flash ADCs are similar to subranging ADCs in that the sampling period is very brief. The primary difference is that the acquisition time of a flash converter is much shorter than that of a subranging ADC. It is only during this period that a flash converter is susceptible to interference from a rapidly changing analog input signal. With a flash ADC, the transition of the CLC532 output should be after the sampling instant (”See timing diagram for ADC Aperture Delay” after the CONVERT command). Gain selection for an ADC In many applications, such as RADAR, the dynamic range requirements may exceed the accuracy requirements. Since wide dynamic range ADC are also typically high accuracy ADCs, this often leads the designer into wrongly selecting an ADC which is a technical overkill and a budget buster. By using the CLC532 as a selectable-gain stage, a less expensive ADC can be used. As an example, if an application calls for 80dB of dynamic Range and 0.05% accuracy, rather than using a 14-bit converter, a 12-bit converter combined with the circuit in Figure 8 will meet the same objective. The CLC532 is used to select between the analog input signal and a version of the input signal attenuated by 12dB. The circuit affords 14-bit dynamic range, 12-bit accuracy and 12-bit ease of implementation.

Selectable Gain Stage Improves ADC Dynamic Range Full Wave Rectifier Circuit The use of a diode rectifierintroduces significant distortion for signals that are small compared to the diode forward bias voltage. Therefore, when low distortion performance is needed, standard diode based circuits do not work well. The CLC532 can be configured to provide a very low distortion full wave rectifier. The circuit inFigure 9 is used to select between an analog input signal and an inverted version of the input signal. The resulting output exhibits very little distortion for small scale signals up to several hundred kilohertz.

FIGURE 9. Low Distortion Full Wave Rectifier Use of the CLC532 as a Mixer A double balanced diode bridge mixer, as shown in Figure 10, operates by multiplying the RFsignal input by the LO input signal . This is done by using the LO signal phase to select either the forward or reverse path through the diode bridge. The result is an output where IF=RF when LO > 0 and IF=−RF for LO < 0. The same function can be obtained withthe CLC532 circuit shown in Figure 11. The CLC532 based circuit uses a digital LO making system design easier in those cases where the LO is digitally derived. Another advantage of the CLC532 based approach is excellent isolation between all three ports. (See the RF design awards article by Thomas Hack in January 1993 of RF Design.)
