The LTC
®
1451/LTC1452/LTC1453 are complete single
supply, rail-to-rail voltage output 12-bit digital-to-analog
converters (DACs) in an SO-8 package. They include an
output buffer amplifier and an easy-to-use 3-wire
cascadable serial interface.
The LTC1451 has an onboard reference of 2.048V and a
full-scale output of 4.095V. It operates from a single 4.5V
to 5.5V supply.
The LTC1452 is a multiplying DAC with a full-scale output
of twice the reference input voltage. It operates from a
single supply of 2.7V to 5.5V.
The LTC1453 has an onboard 1.22V reference and a full-
scale output of 2.5V. It operates from a single supply of
2.7V to 5.5V.
The low power supply current makes the LTC1451 family
ideal for battery-powered applications. The space saving
8-pin SO package and operation with no external compo-
nents provide the smallest 12-bit DAC system available.

Resolution (n): Resolution is defined as the number of
digital input bits, n. It defines the number of DAC output
states (2
n
) that divide the full-scale range. The resolution
does not imply linearity.
Full-Scale Voltage (V
FS
): This is the output of the DAC
when all bits are set to 1.
Voltage Offset Error (V
OS
): Normally, DAC offset is the
voltage at the output when the DAC is loaded with all zeros.
The DAC can have a true negative offset, but because the
part is operated from a single supply, the output cannot go
below zero. If the offset is negative, the output will remain
near 0V resulting in the transfer curve shown in Figure 1.
The offset of the part is measured at the code that corre-
sponds to the maximum offset specification:
V
OS
= V
OUT
– [(Code × V
FS
)/(2
n
– 1)]
Least Significant Bit (LSB): One LSB is the ideal voltage
difference between two successive codes.
LSB = (V
FS
– V
OS
)/(2
n
– 1) = (V
FS
– V
OS
)/4095
Nominal LSBs:
LTC1451 LSB = 4.095V/4095 = 1mV
LTC1452 LSB = V(REF)/4095
LTC1453 LSB = 2.5V/4095 = 0.610mV
Integral Nonlinearity (INL): End-point INL is the maxi-
mum deviation from a straight line passing through the
end-points of the DAC transfer curve. Because the part
operates from a single supply and the output cannot go
below zero, the linearity is measured between full scale
and the code corresponding to the maximum offset speci-
fication. The INL error at a given input code is calculated
as follows:
INL = [V
OUT
– V
OS
– (V
FS
– V
OS
)(code/4095)]/LSB
V
OUT
= The output voltage of the DAC measured at
the given input code
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL): DNL is the difference
between the measured change and the ideal 1LSB change
between any two adjacent codes. The DNL error between
any two codes is calculated as follows:
DNL = (V
OUT
– LSB)/LSB
V
OUT
= The measured voltage difference between
two adjacent codes
Digital Feedthrough: The glitch that appears at the analog
output caused by AC coupling from the digital inputs when
they change state. The area of the glitch is specified in
nV × sec.

Reference
The LTC1451 includes an internal 2.048V reference, mak-
ing 1LSB equal to 1mV (gain of 2). The LTC1453 has an
internal reference of 1.22V with a full scale of 2.5V (gain of
2.05). The internal reference output is turned off when the
pin is forced above the reference voltage, allowing an
external reference to be connected to the reference pin.
The LTC1452 has no internal reference and the REF pin
must be driven externally. The buffer gain is 2, so the
external reference must be less than V
CC
/2 and be capable
of driving the 8k minimum DAC resistor ladder.
Voltage Output
The LTC1451 family’s rail-to-rail buffered output can
source or sink 5mA over the entire operating temperature
range while pulling to within 300mV of the positive supply
voltage or ground. The output swings to within a few
millivolts of either supply rail when unloaded and has an
equivalent output resistance of 40 when driving a load to
the rails. The output can drive 1000pF without going into
oscillation.
Serial Interface
The data on the D
IN
input is loaded into the shift register
on the rising edge of the clock. The MSB is loaded first. The
DAC register loads the data from the shift register when
CS/LD is pulled high. The CLK is disabled internally when
CS/LD is high. Note: CLK must be low before CS/LD is
pulled low to avoid an extra internal clock pulse.
The buffered output of the 12-bit shift register is available
on the D
OUT
pin which swings from GND to V
CC
.
Multiple LTC1451/LTC1452/LTC1453s may be daisy-
chained together by connecting the D
OUT
pin to the D
IN
pin of the next chip, while the CLK and CS/LD signals
remain common to all chips in the daisy chain. The serial
data is clocked to all of the chips, then the CS/LD signal is
pulled high to update all of them simultaneously.

This circuit shows how to use an LTC1453 to make an
opto-isolated digitally controlled 4mA to 20mA process
controller. The controller circuitry, including the opto-
isolation, is powered by the loop voltage that can have a
wide range of 3.3V to 30V. The 1.22V reference output of
the LTC1453 is used for the 4mA offset current and V
OUT
is used for the digitally controlled 0mA to 16mA current.
R
S
is a sense resistor and the op amp modulates the
transistor Q1 to provide the 4mA to 20mA current through
this resistor. The potentiometers allow for offset and full-
scale adjustment. The control circuitry dissipates well
under the 4mA budget at zero-scale.
Note that although these DACs have internal Schmitt
triggers and are suitable for use with slow rising edges
such as produced by the above optoisolator, the use of
optoisolators in a daisy-chained topology requires the
addition of a gate or the use of a fast isolator on the clock
signal. Setup and hold times between D
OUT
and D
IN
are not
guaranteed unless a clock edge with a rise time of less than
100ns is provided.

This circuit shows a digitally programmable current source
from an external voltage source using an external op amp,
an LT1077 and an NPN transistor (2N3440). Any digital
word from 0 to 4095 is loaded into the LTC1451 and its
output correspondingly swings from 0V to 4.095V. In the
configuration shown, this voltage will be forced across the
resistor R
A
. If R
A
is chosen to be 410 the output current
will range from 0mA at zero-scale to 10mA at full-scale.
The minimum voltage for V
S
is determined by the load
resistor R
L
and Q1's V
CESAT
voltage. With a load resistor
of 50, the voltage source can be as low as 5V.

This circuit shows how to make a bipolar output 12-bit
DAC with a wide output swing using an LTC1451 and an
LT1077. R1 and R2 resistively divide down the LTC1451
output and an offset is summed in using the LTC1451
onboard 2.048V reference and R3 and R4. R5 ensures that
the onboard reference is always sourcing current and
never has to sink any current even when V
OUT
is at full-
scale. The LT1077 output will have a wide bipolar output
swing of –4.096V to 4.094V as shown in the figure above.
With this output swing 1LSB = 2mV.
