AD9925

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

The AD9925 is a complete 36 MHz front end solution for digi-tal still camera and other CCD imaging applications. Based on the AD9995 product, the AD9925 includes the analog front end and a fully programmable timing generator (AFETG), combined with a 10-channel vertical driver (V-driver). A Precision Timing core allows adjustment of high speed clocks with approximately 600 ps resolution at 36 MHz operation.

The on-chip V-driver AD9925 supports up to 10 channels for use with 3-field (6-phase) CCDs. Two additional vertical outputs can be used with CCDs that contain advanced video readout modes. Voltage levels of up to +15 V and −8 V are supported.

The analog front end includes black level clamping, CDS, VGA, and a 12-bit ADC. The timing generator and V-driver provide all the necessary CCD clocks: RG, H-clocks, vertical clocks, sensor gate pulses, substrate clock, and substrate bias control. The internal registers are programmed using a 3-wire serial interface.

Packaged in an 8 mm × 8 mm CSPBGA, the AD9925 is speci-fied over an operating temperature range of −25°C to +85°C.
