GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SPT7750 is a full parallel (flash) analog-to-digital con-
verter capable of digitizing full scale (0 to –2 V) inputs into
eight-bit digital words at an update rate of 500 MSPS. The
ECL-compatible outputs are demultiplexed into two sepa-
rate output banks, each with differential data ready out-
puts to ease the task of data capture. The SPT7750’s wide
input bandwidth and low capacitance eliminate the need
for external track-and-hold amplifiers for most applica-
tions. A proprietary decoding scheme reduces metastable
errors to the 1 LSB level. The SPT7750 operates from a
single –5.2 V supply, with a nominal power dissipation of
5.5 W.
The SPT7750 is available in an 80-lead surface-mount
MQuad package over the industrial temperature range
(–25 °C to +85 °C) and in die form.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SPT7750 is one of the fastest monolithic 8-bit parallel
flash A/D converters available today. The nominal conver-
sion rate is 500 MSPS and the analog bandwidth is in
excess of 900 MHz. A major advance over previous flash
converters is the inclusion of 256 input preamplifiers
between the reference ladder and input comparators (see
block diagram). This not only reduces clock transient kick-
back to the input and reference ladder due to a low AC
beta, but also reduces the effect of the dynamic state of
the input signal on the latching characteristics of the input
comparators. The preamplifiers act as buffers and stabi-
lize the input capacitance so that it remains constant over
different input voltage and frequency ranges and therefore

makes the part easier to drive than previous flash convert-
ers. The preamplifiers also add a gain of two to the input
signal so that each comparator has a wider overdrive or
threshold range to “trip” into or out of the active state. This
gain reduces metastable states that can cause errors at
the output.
The SPT7750 has true differential analog and digital data
paths from the preamplifiers to the output buffers (Current
Mode Logic) for reducing potential missing codes while
rejecting common mode noise.
Signature errors are also reduced by careful layout of the
analog circuitry. The output drive capability of the device
can provide full ECL swings into 50
Ω
loads.

TYPICAL INTERFACE CIRCUIT
The circuit in figure 1 is intended to show the most elabo-
rate method of achieving the least error by correcting for
integral linearity, input induced distortion, and power sup-
ply/ground noise. This is achieved by the use of external
reference ladder tap connections, input buffer, and supply
decoupling. Please contact the factory for the SPT7750
evaluation board application note that contains more
details on interfacing the SPT7750. The function of each
pin and external connections to other components is as
follows:
V
EE
, AGND, DGND

is the supply pin with AGND as ground for the device.
The power supply pins should be bypassed as close to the
device as possible with at least a .01 µF ceramic capaci-
tor. A 10 µF tantalum can also be used for low frequency
suppression. DGND is the ground for the ECL outputs and
is to be referenced to the output pulldown voltage and ap-
propriately bypassed as shown in figure 1.
V
IN
(ANALOG INPUT)
There are two analog input pins that are tied to the same
point internally. Either one may be used as an analog input
sense and the other for input force. This is convenient for
testing the source signal to see if there is sufficient drive
capability. The pins can also be tied together and driven by
the same source. The SPT7750 is superior to similar de-
vices due to a preamplifier stage before the comparators.
This makes the device easier to drive because it has con-
stant capacitance and induces less slew rate distortion.
CLK,
CLK
(CLOCK INPUTS)
The clock inputs are designed to be driven differentially
with ECL levels. The duty cycle of the clock should be kept
at 50% to avoid causing larger second harmonics. If this is
not important to the intended application, then duty cycles
other than 50% may be used.

The digital outputs can drive 50

pulled down to –2 V. When pulled down to –5.2 V, the out-
puts can drive 130

to 1 kΩ loads. All digital outputs are
grey code with the coding as shown in table I. Fairchild rec-
ommends using differential receivers on the outputs of the
data ready lines to ensure the proper output rise and fall
times.

ence pins and tap can be driven by op amps as shown in

THERMAL MANAGEMENT
The typical thermal impedance is as follows:
ΘCA
= +17 °C/W in still air with no heat sink
We highly recommend that a heat sink be used for this
device with adequate air flow to ensure rated performance
of the device. We have found that a Thermalloy 17846
heat sink with a minimum air flow of 1 meter/second (200
linear feet per minute) provides adequate thermal perfor-
mance under laboratory tests. Application specific condi-
tions should be taken into account to ensure that the
device is properly heat sinked.
