AD9262 ADC output stuck at constant value

Question

AD9262 after power cycling sometimes the ADC result is a constant value independent of the input. 
 Does anyone have a reset sequence for this problem? (RST pin is set to ground by PCB)

Hi Roli 
 Thanks for using AD9262. 
 This behavior may be due to incomplete initialization or internal blocks not resetting properly, especially since the RST pin is tied to ground and cannot be used for a hardware reset. 
 To address this, consider the following steps: 
 
 Software Reset via SPI, write to Register 0x00, Bit 2 & 5 to trigger a soft reset. 
 Clock Stability During Power-Up. Ensure a valid and stable clock signal is present during power-up. An unstable or missing clock can cause the ADC to lock up or output constant values. 
 Check and Reset Internal Blocks:
 
 SRC (Sample Rate Converter): Confirm it is properly initialized and reset if used. 
 PLL (Phase-Locked Loop): Verify lock status and reset if necessary. 
 ORx (Overrange Detection): Check for false overrange conditions that may affect output behavior.

Power Down and Reinitialize via SPI. Use the power-down command, write to Register 0x08 to disable the ADC. Re-enable and reconfigure all necessary registers after reset.)
