GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R are low power,
16-channel, 12-/16-bit, buffered voltage output, digital-to-
analog converters (DACs) that include a 2.5 V, 2 ppm/°C internal
reference (enabled by default), and a gain select pin, resulting
in a full-scale output of 2.5 V (gain = 1) or 5 V (gain = 2). The
devices operate from a single, 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply range and
are guaranteed monotonic by design. The AD5674/AD5674R/
AD5679/AD5679R are available in a 28-lead lead frame chip scale
package (LFCSP) and incorporate a power-on reset (POR) circuit
that ensures that the DAC outputs power up to and remains at
zero-scale or midscale until a valid write. The AD5674/AD5674R/
AD5679/AD5679R contain a power-down mode that reduces
the current consumption to 2 μA typical.

the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
Thermal performance is directly linked to printed circuit board
(PCB) design and operating environment. Careful attention to
PCB thermal design is required.
θJA is the natural convection junction to ambient thermal resistance
measured in a one cubic foot, sealed enclosure. θJB is the junction
to board thermal resistance. θJC is the junction to case thermal
resistance. ΨJT is the junction to top thermal characterization
parameter. ΨJB is the junction to board thermal characterization
parameter.

PIN CONFIGURATION AND FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
Figure 6. Pin Configuration
Table 9. Pin Function Descriptions
Pin No. Mnemonic Description
1
VOUT0
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 0. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
2 VDD
Power Supply Input. These devices operate from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Decouple the V
DD
supply with a 10 µF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1
µF capacitor to GND.
3 SYNC Active Low Control Input. This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When SYNC goes low, data transfers in on
the falling edges of the next 24 clocks.
4 SCLK Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input. Data transfers at rates
of up to 50 MHz.
5 SDI Serial Data Input. The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R has a 24-bit input shift register. Data is clocked into the register on
the falling edge of the serial clock input.
6 GAIN Span Set Pin. When this pin is tied to GND, all sixteen DAC outputs have a span from 0 V to VREF. If this pin is tied to VLOGIC, all
sixteen DACs output a span of 0 V to 2 × VREF.
7 VOUT7 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 7. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
8 VOUT6 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 6. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
9 VOUT5 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 5. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
10 VOUT4 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 4. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
11 VOUT15 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 15. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
12 VOUT14 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 14. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
13 VOUT13 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 13. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
14 VOUT12 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 12. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
15, 16 GND Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Device.
17 LDAC Load DAC. LDAC operates in two modes: asynchronously and synchronously. Pulsing this pin low updates any or all DAC
registers if the input registers have new data, which simultaneously updates all DAC outputs. This pin can also be tied
permanently low.
18 VLOGIC Digital Power Supply. The voltage on this pin is specified in Table 2 and Table 3 in the Power Requirements section.
19 SDO Serial Data Output. This pin can be used to daisy-chain a number of devices together, or it can be used for readback. The serial
data transfers on the rising edge of SCLK and is valid on the falling edge.
20 RESET Asynchronous Reset Input. The RESET input is falling edge sensitive. When RESET is low, all LDAC pulses are ignored. When RESET is
activated, the input register and the DAC register are updated with zero-scale or midscale, depending on the model in use.
21 VREF Reference Output Voltage. When using the internal reference, this is the reference output pin. This pin is the reference output
by default.
22 VOUT11 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 11. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
23 VOUT10 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 10. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
24 VOUT9 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 9. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
25 VOUT8 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 8. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
26 VOUT3 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 3. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
27 VOUT2 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 2. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
28 VOUT1 Analog Output Voltage from DAC 1. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
For the DAC, relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity is a
measurement of the maximum deviation, in LSBs, from a straight
line passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between the measured
change and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent
codes. A specified differential nonlinearity of ±1 LSB maximum
ensures monotonicity. These DACs are guaranteed monotonic
by design.
Zero Code Error
Zero code error is a measurement of the output error when zero
code (0x0000) is loaded to the DAC register. The ideal output is
0 V. The zero code error is always positive because the output of
the DAC cannot go below 0 V due to a combination of the offset
errors in the DAC and the output amplifier. Zero code error is
expressed in mV.
Full-Scale Error
Full-scale error is a measurement of the output error when full-
scale code (0xFFFF) is loaded to the DAC register. The ideal
output is VDD − 1 LSB. Full-scale error is expressed in percent of
full-scale range (% of FSR).
Gain Error
Gain error is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the
deviation in slope of the DAC transfer characteristic from the
ideal expressed as % of FSR.
Offset Error Drift
Offset error drift is a measurement of the change in offset error
with a change in temperature. Offset error drift is expressed in
µV/°C.
Offset Error
Offset error is a measure of the difference between VOUT (actual)
and VOUT (ideal) expressed in mV in the linear region of the
transfer function. Offset error is measured with Code 256 loaded
in the DAC register. Offset error can be negative or positive.
DC Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
The dc PSRR indicates how the output of the DAC is affected by
changes in the supply voltage. PSRR is the ratio of the change in
VOUT to a change in VDD for full-scale output of the DAC. PSRR
is measured in mV/V. VREF is held at 2 V, and VDD is varied by
±10%.
Output Voltage Settling Time
The output voltage settling time is the amount of time it takes for
the output of a DAC to settle to a specified level for a ¼ to ¾ full-
scale input change and is measured from the rising edge of SYNC.
Digital-to-Analog Glitch Impulse
Digital-to-analog glitch impulse is the impulse injected into the
analog output when the input code in the DAC register changes
state. Digital-to-analog glitch impulse is normally specified as the
area of the glitch in nV-sec, and is measured when the digital
input code is changed by 1 LSB at the major carry transition
(0x7FFF to 0x8000).
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into the
analog output of the DAC from the digital inputs of the DAC,
but is measured when the DAC output is not updated. Digital
feedthrough is specified in nV-sec and measured with a full-
scale code change on the data bus, that is, from all 0s to all 1s
and vice versa.
Reference Feedthrough
Reference feedthrough is the ratio of the amplitude of the signal
at the DAC output to the reference input when the DAC output
is not being updated. Reference feedthrough is expressed in dB.
Noise Spectral Density
Noise spectral density is a measurement of the internally generated
random noise. Random noise is characterized as a spectral density
(nV/Hz). Noise spectral density is measured by loading the DAC
to midscale and measuring noise at the output. Noise spectral
density is measured in nV/Hz.
DC Crosstalk
DC crosstalk is the dc change in the output level of one DAC in
response to a change in the output of another DAC. DC crosstalk
is measured with a full-scale output change on one DAC (or soft
power-down and power-up) when monitoring another DAC
kept at midscale. DC crosstalk is expressed in μV.
DC crosstalk due to load current change is a measure of the impact
that a change in load current on one DAC has on another DAC
kept at midscale. DC crosstalk due to load current change is
expressed in μV/mA.
Digital Crosstalk
Digital crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC at midscale in response to a full-scale code change
(all 0s to all 1s and vice versa) in the input register of another
DAC. Digital crosstalk is measured in standalone mode and is
expressed in nV-sec.
Analog Crosstalk
Analog crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC due to a change in the output of another DAC.
Analog crosstalk is measured by first loading one of the input
registers with a full-scale code change (all 0s to all 1s and vice
versa). Then, execute a software LDAC and monitor the output
of the DAC whose digital code was not changed. The area of the
glitch is expressed in nV-sec.
AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R Data Sheet
Rev. B | Page 22 of 32
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
DAC-to-DAC crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the
output of one DAC due to a digital code change and subsequent
analog output change of another DAC. DAC-to-DAC crosstalk
is measured by loading the attack channel with a full-scale code
change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa), using the write to and
update commands when monitoring the output of the victim
channel that is at midscale. The energy of the glitch is expressed
in nV-sec.
Multiplying Bandwidth
The multiplying bandwidth is a measure of the finite bandwidth
of the amplifiers within the DAC. A sine wave on the reference
(with full-scale code loaded to the DAC) appears on the output.
The multiplying bandwidth is the frequency at which the output
amplitude falls to 3 dB below the input.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the difference between an ideal sine wave and its
attenuated version using the DAC. The sine wave is used as the
reference for the DAC, and the THD is a measurement of the
harmonics present on the DAC output. THD is measured in dB.
Voltage Reference TC
Voltage reference TC is a measure of the change in the reference
output voltage with a change in temperature. The voltage
reference TC is calculated using the box method, which defines
the TC as the maximum change in the reference output over a
given temperature range, expressed in ppm/°C, shown in the
following equation:

where:
VREF (MAX) is the maximum reference output measured over the
total temperature range.
VREF (MIN) is the minimum reference output measured over the
total temperature range.
VREF (NOM) is the nominal reference output voltage, 2.5 V.
Temperature Range is the specified temperature range of40°C
to +125°C.

THEORY OF OPERATION
DAC
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R are 16-channel,
12-/16-bit, serial input, voltage output DAC with an internal
reference. The device operates from supply voltages of 2.7 V to
5.5 V. Data is written to the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/
AD5679R in a 24-bit word format via a 3-wire serial interface.
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R incorporate a POR
circuit to ensure that the DAC output powers up to a known
output state. The device also has a software power-down mode
that reduces the typical current consumption to 2 µA.
TRANSFER FUNCTION
The internal reference is on by default.
The gain of the output amplifier can be set to ×1 or ×2 using the
span set pin (GAIN). When the GAIN pin is tied to GND, all
16 DAC outputs have a span from 0 V to VREF. When the GAIN
pin is tied to VLOGIC, all 16 DACs output a span of 0 V to
2 × VREF.
DAC ARCHITECTURE
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R implement a
segmented string DAC architecture with an internal output
buffer. Figure 57 shows the internal block diagram.
Figure 57. Single DAC Channel Architecture Block Diagram
Figure 58. Resistor String Structure
Figure 58 shows the resistor string structure. The code loaded to
the DAC register determines the node on the string where the
voltage is tapped off and fed into the output amplifier. The voltage
is tapped off by closing one of the switches and connecting the
string to the amplifier. Because each resistance in the string has
the same value, R, the string DAC is guaranteed monotonic.
Internal Reference
The AD5674R/AD5679R on-chip reference is enabled at power-
up, but can be disabled via a write to the control register. See the
Internal Reference Setup section for details.
The AD5674R/AD5679R have a 2.5 V, 2 ppm/°C reference,
resulting in a full-scale output of 2.5 V or 5 V, depending on the
state of the GAIN pin. The internal reference associated with
the device is available at the VREF pin. This buffered reference
is capable of driving external loads of up to 15 mA.
Output Amplifiers
The output buffer amplifier generates rail-to-rail voltages on its
output. The actual range depends on the value of VREF, the gain
setting, the offset error, and the gain error.
The output amplifiers can drive a load of 1 kin parallel with
10 nF to GND. The slew rate is 0.8 V/µs, with a typical ¼ to ¾
scale settling time of 6 µs.
SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R use a 3-wire serial
interface (SYNC, SCLK, and SDI, compatible with SPI, QSPI™,
and MICROWIRE interface standards, as well as most digital
signal processors (DSPs). See Figure 2 for a timing diagram of a
typical write sequence. The
AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R contain an SDO pin to
allow the user to daisy-chain multiple devices together (see the
Daisy-Chain Operation section) or for readback.
Input Shift Register
The input shift register of the
AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R is 24 bits wide. Data is
loaded MSB first (DB23), and the first four bits are the command
bits, C3 to C0 (see Table 10, followed by the 4-bit DAC address
bits, A3 to A0 (see Table 11), and finally, the 16-bit data-word.
The data-word is comprised of a 16-bit input code for the AD5679
and AD5679R, and a 12-bit code followed by four zeroes, or
dont care bits, for the AD5674 and AD5674R models (see
Figure 60 and Figure 59). These data bits are transferred to the
input register on the 24 falling edges of SCLK and are updated
on the rising edge of SYNC.
Commands execute on individual DAC channels, combined DAC
channels, or on all DACs, depending on the DAC address bits
selected.

STANDALONE OPERATION
Bring the SYNC line low to begin the write sequence. Data from
the SDI line is clocked into the 24-bit input shift register on the
falling edge of SCLK. After the last of 24 data bits is clocked in,
bring SYNC high. The programmed function is then executed,
that is, an LDAC dependent change in DAC register contents
and/or a change in the mode of operation. If SYNC is brought
high at a clock before the 24th clock, it is considered a valid
frame, and invalid data is loaded to the DAC. Bring SYNC high
for a minimum of 20 ns (single channel, see t8 in Figure 2)
before the next write sequence so that a falling edge of SYNC
can initiate the next write sequence. Idle SYNC at rails between
write sequences for even lower power operation. The SYNC line
is kept low for 24 falling edges of SCLK, and the DAC is
updated on the rising edge of SYNC.
When data is transferred to the input register of the addressed
DAC, all DAC registers and outputs update by bringing LDAC
low while the SYNC line is high.
WRITE AND UPDATE COMMANDS
Write to Input Register n (Dependent on LDAC)
Command 0001 allows the user to write the dedicated input
register of each DAC individually. When LDAC is low, the input
register is transparent, if not controlled by the LDAC mask
register.
Update DAC Register n with Contents of Input Register n
Command 0010 loads the DAC registers and outputs with the
contents of the input registers selected and updates the DAC
outputs directly. Data Bit D15 to Bit D0 determine which DACs
have data from the input register transferred to the DAC register.
Setting a bit to 1 transfers data from the input register to the
appropriate DAC register.
Write to and Update DAC Channel n (Independent of LDAC)
Command 0011 allows the user to write to the DAC registers
and updates the DAC outputs directly. The address bits are used
to select the DAC channel.
DAISY-CHAIN OPERATION
For systems that contain several DACs, the SDO pin can daisy-
chain several devices together and is enabled through a software
executable DCEN command. Command 1000 is reserved for
this DCEN function (see Table 10). The daisy-chain mode is
enabled by setting Bit DB0 in the DCEN register. The default
setting is standalone mode, where DB0 = 0. Table 12 shows how
the state of the bit corresponds to the mode of operation of the
device.
Table 12. DCEN Register
DB0 Description
0 Standalone mode (default)
1 DCEN mode
Figure 61. Daisy-Chaining the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R to a
Motorola® 68HC11
The SCLK pin is continuously applied to the input shift register
when SYNC is low. If more than 24 clock pulses are applied, the
data ripples out of the input shift register and appears on the SDO
line. This data is clocked out on the rising edge of SCLK and is
valid on the falling edge. By connecting this line to the SDI
input on the next DAC in the chain, a daisy-chain interface is
constructed. Each DAC in the system requires 24 clock pulses.
Therefore, the total number of clock cycles must equal 24 × N,
where N is the total number of devices updated. If SYNC is
brought high at a clock that is not a multiple of 24, it is considered
a valid frame, and invalid data may be loaded to the DAC. When
the serial transfer to all devices is complete, SYNC goes high,
which latches the input data in each device in the daisy-chain
and prevents any further data from being clocked into the input
shift register. The serial clock can be continuous or a gated clock.
If SYNC is held low for the correct number of clock cycles, a
continuous SCLK source is used. In gated clock mode, use a
burst clock containing the exact number of clock cycles, and
bring SYNC high after the final clock to latch the data.
READBACK OPERATION
Readback mode is invoked through a software executable readback
command. If the SDO output is disabled via the daisy-chain mode
disable bit in the control register, the SDO output is automatically

enabled for the duration of the read operation, after which the
SDO output is disabled again. Command 1001 is reserved for the
readback function. This command, in association with the
address bits (A3 to A0), selects the DAC input register to read
(see Table 10 and Table 11). During readback, only one input
register can be selected. The remaining data bits in the write
sequence are dont care bits. During the next SPI write, the data
appearing on the SDO output contains the data from the
previously addressed register.
For example, to read back the DAC register for Channel 0,
implement the following sequence:
1. Write 0x900000 to the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/
AD5679R input register. This configures the device for
read mode with the DAC register of Channel 0 selected.
Note that all data bits, DB15 to DB0, are dont care bits.
2. Follow Step 1 with a second write, a no operation (NOP)
condition, 0x000000 or 0xF00000 when in daisy-chain
mode. During this write, the data from the register is
clocked out on the SDO line. DB23 to DB20 contain
undefined data, and the last 20 bits contain the DB19 to
DB0 DAC register contents.
When SYNC is high, the SDO pin is driven by a weak latch that
holds the last data bit. The SDO pin can be overdriven by the
SDO pin of another device. Multiple devices can be read using
the same SPI interface.
POWER-DOWN OPERATION
Command 0100 is designated for the power-down function (see
Table 10). These power-down modes are software programmable
by setting 16 bits, Bit DB15 to Bit DB0, in the input shift register.
There are two bits associated with each DAC channel. Table 13
shows how the state of the two bits corresponds to the mode of
operation of the device.
Any or all DACs (DAC 0 to DAC 15) power down to the
selected mode by setting the corresponding bits. See Table 14
and Table 15 for the contents of the input shift register during
the power-down/power-up operation.
Table 13. Modes of Operation
Operating Mode PD1 PD0
Normal Operation 0 0
Power-Down Modes
1 kto GND 0 1
When both Bit PD1 and Bit PD0 in the input shift register are set
to 0, the device works normally with a typical power consumption
of 2.3 mA at 5 V. However, for the 1 kpower-down mode, the
supply current typically falls to 2 µA. In addition to this fall, the
output stage switches internally from the amplifier output to a
resistor network of a known value. Therefore, the DAC channel
output impedance is defined when the channel is powered down
by internally connecting the output to GND through a 1 k
resistor. Figure 62 shows the output stage.
Figure 62. Output Stage During Power-Down
The bias generator, output amplifier, resistor string, and other
associated linear circuitry shut down when power-down mode is
activated. However, the contents of the DAC register are unaffected
when in power-down. The DAC register updates while the device
is in power-down mode. The time required to exit power-down is
typically 3 µs for VDD = 5 V.
To reduce the current consumption further, power off the on-chip
reference. See the Internal Reference Setup section.

LOAD DAC (HARDWARE LDAC PIN)
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R DACs have double
buffered interfaces consisting of two banks of registers: input
registers and DAC registers. The user can write to any
combination of the input registers. Updates to the DAC register
are controlled by the LDAC pin.
Instantaneous DAC Updating (LDAC Held Low)
For instantaneous updating of the DACs, LDAC is held low and
data is clocked to the input register using Command 0001. Both
the addressed input register and the DAC register are updated
on the rising edge of SYNC, and the output begins to change
(see Table 17).
Figure 63. Simplified Diagram of Input Loading Circuitry for a Single DAC
Deferred DAC Updating (LDAC is Pulsed Low)
For deferred updating of the DACs, LDAC is held high and data
is clocked to the input register using Command 0001. All DAC
outputs are asynchronously updated by bringing LDAC low
after SYNC is brought high. The update now occurs on the
falling edge of LDAC.
LDAC MASK REGISTER
Command 0101 is reserved for this software LDAC function.
Address bits are ignored. Writing to the DAC, using
Command 0101, loads the 16-bit LDAC register (DB15 to DB0).
The default for each channel is 0, that is, the LDAC pin works
normally. Setting the bits to 1 forces this DAC channel to ignore
transitions on the LDAC pin, regardless of the state of the
hardware LDAC pin. This flexibility is useful in applications
where the user wants to select which channels respond to the
LDAC pin.
The LDAC register gives the user extra flexibility and control
over the hardware LDAC pin (see Table 16). Setting the LDAC
bits (DB0 to DB15) to 0 for a DAC channel means that this
channel update is controlled by the hardware LDAC pin.

HARDWARE RESET (RESET)
The RESET pin is an active low reset that allows the outputs to
be cleared to zero scale or midscale. The clear code value
depends on the model in use and refers to the power-up voltage.
It is necessary to keep the RESET pin low for a minimum time
(see Table 5) to complete the operation. When the RESET signal
is returned high, the output remains at the cleared value until a
new value is programmed. When the RESET pin is low, the
outputs cannot be updated with a new value. Any events on the
LDAC pin or RESET pin during power-on reset are ignored. If
the RESET pin is pulled low at power-up, the device does not
initialize properly until the pin is released.
POWER-ON RESET INTERNAL CIRCUIT
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R contain a power-on
reset circuit that controls the output voltage during power-up.
Depending on the model selected, the output powers up to zero
scale (AD5679R-1, AD5674R-1) or the output powers up to
midscale (AD5679R-2, AD5674R-2). The output remains
powered up at this level until a valid write sequence is made to
the DAC.
SOFTWARE RESET
A software executable reset function is also available that resets
the DAC to the power-on reset code. Command 0110 is
designated for this software reset function. The DAC address
bits must be set to 0x0 and the data bits set to 0x1234 for the
software reset command to execute.
INTERNAL REFERENCE SETUP
The on-chip reference is on at power-up by default. To reduce
the supply current, turn off this reference by setting the software
programmable bit, DB0, in the control register. Table 18 shows
how the state of the bit corresponds to the mode of operation.
Command 0111 is reserved for setting up the internal reference
(see Table 10 and Table 19).

SOLDER HEAT REFLOW
As with all IC reference voltage circuits, the reference value
experiences a shift induced by the soldering process. Analog
Devices, Inc., performs a reliability test called precondition to
mimic the effect of soldering a device to a board. The output
voltage specification quoted previously includes the effect of
this reliability test.
Figure 64 shows the effect of solder heat reflow (SHR) as
measured through the reliability test (precondition).

LONG-TERM TEMPERATURE DRIFT
Figure 65 shows the change in VREF value after 1000 hours at 25°C
ambient temperature.
Figure 65. Reference Drift Through to 1000 Hours
THERMAL HYSTERESIS
Thermal hysteresis is the voltage difference induced on the
reference voltage by sweeping the temperature from ambient to
cold to hot, and then back to ambient.
Figure 66 shows thermal hysteresis data. Thermal hysteresis is
measured by sweeping the temperature from ambient to −40°C,
then to +125°C, and returning to ambient. TheVREF, shown in
blue in Figure 66, is then measured between the two ambient
measurements. The same temperature sweep and measurements
are immediately repeated and the results are shown in red in
Figure 66.

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
Microprocessor interfacing to the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/
AD5679R is performed via a serial bus that uses a standard
protocol compatible with DSP processors and microcontrollers.
The communications channel requires a 3-wire or 4-wire interface
consisting of a clock signal, a data signal, and a synchronization
signal. The device requires a 24-bit data-word with data valid
on the rising edge of SYNC.

BF531 INTERFACE
The SPI interface of the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R
can connect to industry-standard DSPs and microcontrollers.
Figure 68 shows the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R
connected to the Analog Devices Blackfin® DSP. The Blackfin
has an integrated SPI port that can connect directly to the SPI
pins of the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R.

LAYOUT GUIDELINES
In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful consideration
of the power supply and ground return layout helps to ensure
the rated performance. Design the PCB on which the AD5674/
AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R is mounted so that the device lies
on the analog plane.
The AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R must have ample
supply bypassing of 10 µF in parallel with 0.1 µF on each supply,
located as close to the package as possible, ideally up against the
device. The 10 µF capacitors are tantalum bead type. The 0.1 µF
capacitors must have low effective series resistance (ESR) and low
effective series inductance (ESI), such as the common ceramic
types, which provide a low impedance path to ground at high
frequencies to handle transient currents due to internal logic
switching.
In systems where there are many devices on one board, it is often
useful to provide some heat sinking capability to allow the
power to dissipate easily.
The GND plane on the device can be increased (as shown in
Figure 70) to provide a natural heat sinking effect.

GALVANICALLY ISOLATED INTERFACE
In many process control applications, it is necessary to provide
an isolation barrier between the controller and the unit being
controlled to protect and isolate the controlling circuitry from
any hazardous common-mode voltages that can occur. iCoupler®
products from Analog Devices can provide voltage isolation
>2.5 kV. The serial loading structure of the AD5679R makes the
device ideal for isolated interfaces because the number of interface
lines is kept to a minimum. Figure 71 shows a 4-channel, isolated
interface to the AD5674/AD5674R/AD5679/AD5679R using
the ADuM1400. For further information, visit
