Figure 73 shows the typical drift characteristics of the back-to-back Schottky diodes across the transformer/balun internal reference in 1.0 V mode. secondary limit clock excursions into the AD9268 to approx- imately 0.8 V p-p differential. When the SENSE pin is tied to AVDD, the internal reference is disabled, allowing the use of an external reference. An internal This limit helps prevent the large voltage swings of the clock reference buffer loads the external reference with an equivalent from feeding through to other portions of the AD9268 while 6 kΩ load (see Figure 62). The internal buffer generates the positive preserving the fast rise and fall times of the signal that are critical and negative full-scale references for the ADC core. Therefore, to a low jitter performance. the external reference must be limited to a maximum of 1.0 V.
