This reference design provides a practical example of interleaved RF-sampling analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to achieve a 12.8-GSPS sampling rate. This is achieved by time-terleaving two RF-sampling ADCs. Interleaving requires a phase shift between the ADCs: which this reference design achieves using the Noiseless Aperture Delay Adjustment (tAD Adjust) feature of the ADC12DJ3200. This feature is also used to minimize mismatches typical of interleaved ADCs: maximizing SNR: ENOB: and SFDR performance. A low phase noise clocking tree with JESD204B support is also featured on this reference design: and it is implemented using the LMX2594 wideband PLL and the LMK04828 synthesizer and jitter cleaner.
