AD9217BBPZ-10G

Overview

The AD9217BBPZ-10G is a single-channel, 12-bit radio frequency analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Analog Devices Inc. It supports sampling rates up to 10.25 GSPS with a 6.5 GHz input bandwidth. The device features an integrated input buffer and low latency parallel CML output interface for direct FPGA/ASIC interfacing. It utilizes an interleaved pipeline architecture with proprietary calibration to suppress interleaving spurious artifacts. Key specifications include a typical power dissipation of 4.2 W at 10 GSPS, a noise spectral density of -153 dBFS/Hz at 170 MHz input, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 55.8 dBFS. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -20°C to +115°C and is housed in a 192-ball BGA package.

Feature Summary

• Supports reconfiguration to native AD9213 mode for JESD204B output applications
• Includes on-chip negative voltage generators and temperature sensor
• Features fast overrange detection for efficient automatic gain control
• Provides overvoltage protection on analog inputs

Applications

• Wide instantaneous bandwidth time domain applications
• High dynamic range frequency domain applications
• RF systems requiring low conversion error rates

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BBPZ against the manufacturer's current ordering guide to confirm package type and tape/reel configuration. Ensure the supply voltage rails match the specified nominal values for the 10.25 GSPS variant. Confirm that the PCB thermal design accommodates the junction-to-ambient resistance characteristics defined in the datasheet.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high-speed parallel CML outputs are required instead of serial interfaces. Consider the AD9217-6G variant if the application does not require sampling rates exceeding 6 GSPS, as it offers similar performance at lower frequencies. Evaluate the need for the AD9213 native mode reconfiguration if future system upgrades require JESD204B compatibility.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AD921x family of high-speed RF ADCs designed by Analog Devices Inc. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the series but is distinct in its maximum sampling rate capabilities and output interface options. The part number indicates the specific speed bin and packaging configuration provided by the manufacturer.

Replacement Considerations

The AD9217-6G is a compatible alternative for applications operating below 6 GSPS. For systems requiring JESD204B interfaces natively, the AD9213 serves as the primary functional equivalent. Verify pinout and register compatibility before substituting any cross-model components.
