CLK by a programmable factor of 2, 4, or 8. When the
programmable clock factor is 1, IOUT9 is pulled high, and the
CLK signal should be used as the clock. The beginning of a
serial data word is signaled by the assertion of DATARDY one
serial clock before the first bit of the output word. In I followed
by Q Mode, DATARDY is asserted prior to each 16-bit data
word. For added flexibility, the Formatter may be configured to
output the data words in either MSB or LSB first format
.
Gain Distribution
The gain distribution in the DQT is shown in Figure 17. These
gains consist of a combination of fixed, programmable, and
adaptive gains. The fixed gains are introduced by processing
elements like the Synthesizer/Mixer and CIC Filter. The
programmable and adaptive gains are set to compensate for
the fixed gains as well as variations in input signal strength.
The bit range of the data path between processing elements
is shown in Figure 17. The quadrature inputs to the data path
are 10-bit fractional two’s complement numbers. They are
multiplied by a 10-bit quadrature sinusoid and rounded to
12-bits in the Synthesizer/Mixer. The I and Q legs are then
scaled by a fixed gain of 2
-36
to compensate for the worst
case gain of the CIC filter. Next, a gain block with an adaptive
and programmable component is used to set the output signal
level within the desired range of the 10-bit output (see Setting
DQT Gains Section). The adaptive component is produced by
the AGC and has a gain range from 1.0 to 1.9375*2
7
. The
programmable component sets the gain range of the CIC
shifter which may range from 2
0
to 2
63
. Care must be taken
when setting the AGC gain limits and the CIC Shifter gain
since the sum of these gains could shift the CIC Scaler output
beyond the bit range (-2
8
to 2
-46
) of the CIC Filter input. The
CIC Filter introduces a gain factor given by R
N
where R is the
decimation rate of the filter and N is the CIC order. The CIC
order is either 1 (integrate and dump filter) or 3. Depending on
configuration, the CIC Filter introduces a gain factor from 2
0
to
2
36
. The output of the CIC Filter is then rounded and limited to
an 11-bit window between bit positions 2
1
to 2
-9
. Values
outside this range saturate to these 11 bits. The
Compensation Filter introduces a final gain factor of 1.0, 0.65,
