The AD9956 is Analog Devices’s first AgileRF synthesizer. The device is comprised of a DDS and PLL circuitry. The DDS features a 14-bit DAC operating up to 400 MSPS and a 48-bit frequency tuning word. The PLL Circuitry includes a phase detector with scaleable 200 MHz inputs (pre-scalar inputs operate up to 650 MHz) and digital control over the charge pump current. The device also includes a 650 MHz PECL driver with programmable slew rates.The AD9956 uses advanced DDS technology, an internal high-speed, high performance D/A converter and an advance phase-detector/charge pump combination to enable the synthesis of digitally-programmable, frequency-agile analog output sinusoidal waveforms up to 2.7 GHz. The AD9956 is designed to provide fast frequency hopping and fine tuning resolution (48-bit frequency tuning word). Information is loaded into the AD9956 via a serial I/O port which has a device write speed of 25 MBit/sec. The AD9956 DDS block also supports a user defined linear sweep mode of operation.
The AD9956 is specified to operate over the extended automotive range of −40°C to +125°C.

ADIsimDDS (Direct Digital Synthesis)
ADIsimDDS uses mathematical equations to model and illustrate the overall performance of the selected device. ADIsimDDS calculates the required FTW, given the reference clock frequency and desired output frequency. This tool also models an estimate of the overall spectral performance, and allows the user to explore the effects of external reconstruction filters.
