GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7339 is a composite IC that contains both DAC and
ADC functions. The device includes an 8-bit parallel A-to-D
converter. Two 8-bit parallel DACs are also included as are two
serial control DACs. These serial DACs are 8-bit DACs.
The AD7339, which operates with a single 5 V power supply,
has a bandgap reference on board with a nominal value of 2.5 V.
To reduce the power consumption of the part, each section,
except the reference, can be individually powered down when
not in use.
The AD7339 is available in a 52-lead PQFP package.

11 DACPDB Digital Input. The parallel DACs, VREFA and VREFB, can be powered down
using pin DACPDB. When DACPDB is low, both of the parallel DACs and the
VREFA/VREFB outputs are placed in a standby mode, drawing a minimal cur-
rent. The reference, which is available on the VREF pin, is not powered down.
Serial DACs
16 SDATA Serial Input Data. Serial data is latched into the AD7339 registers on the rising
edge of SCLK. The digital data uses CMOS logic. Data is loaded into the latches
in 10-bit bursts (MSB first), the 2 MSBs of the word indicating the DAC to which
the digital word is being loaded while the 8 LSBs contain the digital word being
loaded into the DAC. The serial DACs use offset binary.
14 SCLK Serial Input Clock. Data is latched into the registers on the rising edge of SCLK,
which is nominally set to 256 kHz. SCLK is a gated clock—the clock should be active
only when data is being loaded into the latches. The clock should idle low between
conversions.
15 LATCH Latch Enable Input. LATCH is used to load the digital data from the latch into
the DAC and begin conversion. Both DACs are loaded with the digital data in
their respective latches. LATCH is pulsed high to load the DACs, the DACs being
loaded on the rising edge of LATCH.
38 SDAC0S Analog Output from Serial DAC0. The analog output from this DAC will have a
value of 0.2 V to AVDD – 0.247 V.
37 SDAC0F Feedback Analog Input. By connecting a resistor between SDAC0F and SDAC0S,
the gain of the DAC0 buffer can be altered and the magnitude of the analog out-
put adjusted accordingly.
40 SDAC1S Analog Output from Serial DAC1. The analog output from this DAC will have a
value of 0.2 V to AVDD – 0.247 V.
39 SDAC1F Feedback Analog Input. By connecting a resistor between SDAC1F and SDAC1S,
the gain of the DAC1 buffer can be altered and the magnitude of the analog out-
put adjusted accordingly.
13 SDACPDB Digital Input. The serial DACs are powered down using SDACPDB. When this
pin is tied low, the serial DACs are placed in standby mode.
Reference
35 VREF The onboard bandgap reference is available on the VREF pin. The reference has a
value of 2.5 V nominal. A bypass capacitor of 0.1 µF is required between VREF
and AGND. This output cannot be powered down.
44, 42 VREFA/VREFB A buffered version of the reference is available on VREFA/VREFB. The analog
outputs from the parallel DACs are biased about the reference voltage. DACA is
biased about VREFA while DACB is biased about VREFB. VREFA and VREFB
can be used with DACA and DACB to provide differential analog inputs to the
circuitry connected to the DACs. These outputs are powered down using DACPDB.
These outputs should be decoupled using a capacitance of 100 pF minimum.

Track-and-Hold Amplifier
The track-and-hold amplifier on the analog input of the AD7339’s
ADC allows the ADC to accurately convert input frequencies to
8-bit accuracy. The input bandwidth of the track-and-hold am-
plifier is much greater than the Nyquist rate of the ADC.
The operation of the track-and-hold is essentially transparent to
the user. The track-and-hold amplifier goes from its tracking
mode to its hold mode on the rising edge of ADCCLK.
Analog Input
The ADC accepts an analog input of 2 V p-p. The analog input
is biased about 1.4 V internally. If the signal applied to the ADC is
biased about 1.4 V, then dc coupling can be used. AC coupling
is needed if the analog input is biased about any voltage other
than 1.4 V. A capacitor of 1 nF is suitable for ac coupling.
Figure 7 shows the ideal input/output transfer function for the
ADC. The designed code transitions occur midway between
successive integer LSB values (1/2 LSB, 3/2 LSB, 5/2 LSB . . .)
with 1 LSB = FS/256 = 2 V/256 = 7.8 mV.

Parallel DACs
The circuitry for each parallel DAC consists of a current source
DAC followed by a buffer that converts the current to a voltage.
Figure 8 shows the functional block diagram for the parallel
DACs.
The loading of both the A and B DAC is controlled by the
DACCLK signal, which is nominally set to 2.304 MHz. The
digital input to each DAC is latched in on the rising edge of the
DACCLK signal so that both DACs simultaneously perform the
D-to-A conversion.

Figure 8. Parallel DACs Functional Block Diagram
The analog output from each DAC is biased about the reference
voltage VREFA (DAC A) or VREFB (DAC B). The analog
output is ±1.4 V about the reference voltage. Since the analog
outputs are biased about the reference voltage, the reference
outputs can be used with the analog outputs to form a differen-
tial signal for the circuitry that follows the DACs.
The AD7339 includes a calibration feature that reduces the
offset between the DAC output bias voltage and the VREFA/
VREFB voltage. A 4-bit offset nulling feature is used to factory
trim the offset. The device also has a 4-bit offset register that is
user controlled; i.e., the user can disable the factory trimmed
offset and use the 4-bit register instead. This allows the user to
calibrate out the system offset; however, the user is also respon-
sible for calibrating out the AD7339 offset.
The 4-bit offset register is accessed via the serial interface that is
used by DAC 0 and DAC 1. Table III gives the addresses for
accessing these registers. D5 of the 10-bit data word enables the
user to write to the 4-bit offset register. When this bit is set to 0,
the factory trimmed value is used as the offset value, while the
user programmed value is used when D5 equals 1. When the
offset is user controlled, D4 is used to inform the AD7339 to
reduce or increase the DAC output voltage. When D4 equals 0,
the DAC output is reduced, while the DAC output is increased
when D4 equals 1. When user trimming is being used, the 4-bit
word to be loaded into the register is contained in the 4 LSBs of
the 10-bit word being written to the serial port.

The 4-bit offset nulling feature has a LSB size of 7.6 mV; thereby,
allowing the user to vary the DAC output by ±115 mV.

Serial DACs
The AD7339 has two serial DACs on board. The serial DACs
have an architecture similar to the parallel DACs. The 8-bit
digital word to each DAC is serially loaded. The serial DACs
have a common serial port. To distinguish between the two
DACs, 10-bit bursts are transferred to the DACs, the two MSBs
identifying the DAC to which the 8-bit word is to be loaded.
Table III shows the truth table for the two MSBs.
The serial word is loaded into the serial register using SDATA
and SCLK. SCLK is a gated clock of nominal value 256 kHz,
which should be active only when the 10-bit word is being
loaded into the register; i.e., SCLK should consist of 10 pulses.
If SCLK is continuous, or if it consists of more than 10 pulses,
the data shifted into the serial register will be shifted out of the
serial register so the register will not contain valid data. When
the serial register is not being written to, SCLK should idle low.
The serial data bits are read into the serial register on the rising
edge of SCLK, the two MSBs of the word identifying the DAC
to which the word is being written, and the eight LSBs of the
10-bit word containing the 8-bit word to be converted, the 8-bit
word being transferred MSB first. SDATA idles low.
Table III. Serial DACs Truth Table
D9 D8 DAC to be Written to
0 0 DAC A Offset Register Is Loaded
0 1 DAC 1 Register Is Loaded
1 0 DAC 0 Register Is Loaded
1 1 DAC B Offset Register Is Loaded
The 8-bit word is loaded into the DAC from the register using
LATCH. Data is loaded into the DACs on the falling edge of
LATCH. When the D-to-A conversion is performed, the analog
output is altered accordingly. The analog output will remain
valid until the next falling edge of LATCH, at which stage the
next digital word in the register is converted. LATCH is nor-
mally low, the input being pulsed to load the DACs, the DACs
being loaded on the falling edge of LATCH.
The analog output is available on the SDAC0S/SDAC1S pin.
Each DAC has an analog output of 0.2 V to AVDD – 0.247 V,
an input of 00H generating an analog output of 0.2 V while a
digital input of FFH produces an analog output of AVDD –
0.247 V, i.e., the serial DACs use straight binary coding. The
analog output is generated by the on board reference. There-
fore, when AVDD is greater than 5.247 V, V
OUT
= 2 VREF
when the digital word equals all 1s. However, when AVDD is
less than 5.247 V, the output is limited to 0.247 V below AVDD
as the amplifier clips the output.
The output from the current source is converted to a voltage
using an operational amplifier. The amplifier is configured to
gain the signal by two; however, the gain of the amplifier can be
adjusted by tying a resistor between SDAC0F/SDAC1F and
SDAC0S/SDAC1S. The resistors on board the AD7339 have a
value of 20 k.
Power-Down
Each section of the AD7339 can be individually powered down.
The ADC, parallel DACs and serial DACs have individual
power-down pins, which allows each section to be powered
down when it is not being used, thus minimizing the current
consumption of the AD7339.
Pin ADCPDB is used to place the ADC in sleep mode. When
this pin is taken low, the ADC is powered down. For normal
operation, ADCPDB is high.
When the parallel DACs are not being used, they can be placed
in power-down mode using DACPDB. When DACPDB is low,
both DACs are powered down. The reference outputs VREFA
and VREFB are also powered down. During power-down, the
analog outputs DACA and DACB, as well as the reference out-
puts, are pulled down to ground. When the DACs are powered up,
the analog outputs settle to the bias voltage VREFA/VREFB.
The serial DACs are powered down using SDACPDB. When
this pin is tied low, the serial DACs are placed in sleep mode.
When a converter is powered up, 100 µs are required for the
analog and digital circuitry to settle. Conversions can commence
when the circuitry has settled.
The reference on board the AD7339 is permanently powered
up. While the outputs VREFA and VREFB can be powered
down, the reference voltage, which is available on pin VREF, is
always available.

TERMINOLOGY
Differential Nonlinearity
The difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB change
between any two adjacent codes in the ADC or DACs. A speci-
fied Differential Nonlinearity of ±1 LSB max over the operating
temperature range ensures monotonicity.
Integral Nonlinearity
The maximum deviation of any code from a straight line passing
through the endpoints of the transfer function. The endpoints
of the transfer function are zero scale, a point 0.5 LSB below the
first code transition (000 . . . 00 to 000 . . . 01) and full scale, a
point 0.5 LSB above the last code transition (111 . . . 10 to
111 . . . 11). The error is expressed in LSBs.
Signal to (Noise + Distortion)
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is measured signal-to-noise at the
output of the ADC. The signal is the rms magnitude of the
fundamental. Noise is the rms sum of all nonfundamental sig-
nals up to half the sampling frequency (F
S
/2) excluding dc.
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is dependent on the number of
quantization levels used in the digitization process; the more
levels, the smaller the quantization noise. The theoretical signal
to (Noise + Distortion) ratio for a sine wave signal is given by
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) = (6.02N + 1.76) dB
where N is the number of bits. Thus for an ideal 8-bit converter,
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is 49.92 dB.
ADC
Effective Number of Bits (ENOB)
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) is expressed in dBs; rewriting the
Signal to (Noise + Distortion) formula, it is possible to get a
measure of performance expressed in effective number of bits.
The effective number of bits for a device can be calculated di-
rectly from its measured Signal to (Noise + Distortion) value.
ENOB = (SNR – 1.76)/6.02
where SNR is the Signal to (Noise + Distortion).
Zero Input Offset Error
This is the offset error in the ADC when the analog input is
zero. Ideally, the digital output should equal 100 . . . 00. The
offset error is the deviation from the ideal output code. The
offset error is expressed in LSBs.
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and
fb, any active device with nonlinearities will create distortion
products, of order (m + n), at sum and difference frequencies
of mfa ± nfb, where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, . . .. Intermodulation
terms are those for which m or n is not equal to zero. For the
AD7339, the Intermodulation Distortion is the level to which
the second and third intermodulation terms are suppressed
below a full scale output signal level, the second order terms
being (fa + fb) and (fa – fb) while the third order terms are
(2fa + fb), (2fa – fb), (fa + 2fb) and (fa – 2fb).
Error Rate
The rate at which A-to-D conversion errors occur.
DACS
Bipolar Zero Offset Error
The deviation between the measured output voltage and the
bias voltage (VREFA or VREFB, depending on which DAC is
being tested) when the DAC is loaded with code 100 . . . 00
after gain error has been adjusted out.
Gain Error
A measure of the output error between an ideal DAC and the
actual device output with all 1s loaded after offset error has been
adjusted out.
Update Rate
The rate at which the DACs can be loaded with new data. The
parallel DACs have an update rate of 2.304 MHz while the
serial DACs have an update rate of 256/10 kHz maximum.
Gain Matching Between DACs
The matching between the analog output amplitudes of the
parallel DACs when the same digital word is written to each
DAC.
Crosstalk
The ratio of the amplitude of a full-scale signal appearing on
one channel to the amplitude of the same signal which couples
onto another channel. Crosstalk is expressed in dBs.
Output Harmonic Content
When the digital word is converted to analog form, harmonics
will also be generated. The Output Harmonic Content specifies
the amount by which these harmonics are attenuated relative to
the fundamental frequency. With the parallel DACs, a full sine
wave of frequency 0 kHz to 128 kHz is input. The resulting
analog output is evaluated and the amount by which the
harmonics in the frequency band 0 MHz to 1.1152 MHz are
attenuated is measured relative to the magnitude of the fun-
damental output signal.

GROUNDING AND LAYOUT
The printed circuit board that houses the AD7339 should be
designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated
and confined to certain areas of the board. This facilitates the
use of ground planes that can be easily separated. A minimum
etch technique is generally best for ground planes as it gives the
best shielding.
Digital and analog ground planes should be joined in only one
place. If the AD7339 is the only device requiring an AGND-to-
DGND connection, the ground planes should be connected at
the AGND and DGND pins of the AD7339. If the AD7339 is
in a system where multiple devices require AGND-to-DGND
connections, the connection should be made at one point only,
a star point that should be established as close as possible to the
AD7339. Avoid running digital lines under the device as these
will couple noise onto the die. The analog ground plane should
be allowed to run under the AD7339 to avoid noise coupling.
The power supply lines to the AD7339 should use as large a
track as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce the
effects of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching sig-
nals such as clocks should be shielded with digital ground to
avoid radiating noise to other sections of the board. Avoid
crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces at opposite sides
of the board should run at right angles to each other. This will
reduce the effects of feedthrough through the board. A microstrip
technique is by far the best, but is not always possible with a
double-sided board. In this technique, the component side of
the board is dedicated to ground planes while signals are placed
on the other side. Good decoupling is important. The analog
and digital supplies to the AD7339 are independent and sepa-
rately pinned out to minimize coupling between analog and
digital sections of the device. All analog and digital supplies
should be decoupled to AGND and DGND respectively using
0.1 µF ceramic capacitors in parallel with 10 µF tantalum
capacitors. To achieve the best from the decoupling capaci-
tors, they should be placed as close as possible to the device,
ideally right up against the device. In systems where a com-
mon supply is used to drive both the AVDD and DVDD of
the AD7339, it is recommended that the system’s AVDD sup-
ply be used. This supply should have the recommended analog
supply decoupling between the AVDD pins of the AD7339 and
AGND and the recommended digital supply decoupling capaci-
tors between the DVDD pins and DGND.
