This paper proposes a programmable digital downconverter(DDC) design method for ASIC implementation.The DDC is embedded in a 4GS/s-12 bit ADC and is capable of processing input signals at a frequency of 4GHz and provides extraction factors of 4Downsampling function for 8,16,16 and 32.The designed DDC consists of a numerically controlled oscillator based on the CORDIC algorithm and a decimation filter bank implemented by a full HB-FIR filter.According to the HB-FIR filter coefficient characteristics and spectral response characteristics,a variety of improved structural optimization designs are proposed in hardware implementation,reducing the area by about 50%.Based on the 40 nm CMOS process,digital front-end and back-end implementations of the digital downconverter were completed and taped out.The simulation results show that the design can achieve the design goals at a working clock frequency of 500 MHz.The layout area is 1550*650um^2,and the operating voltage is 0.9V.The power consumption is 180.69 mW.It is verified that the design method is suitable for 2^n down conversion of high-speed and high-precision digital signals.
