LTC2704 Quad 12-, 14- and 16-Bit Voltage Output SoftSpan DACs with Readback FEATURES n n n n n n n n n DESCRIPTION The LTC(R)2704-16/LTC2704-14/LTC2704-12 are serial input, 12-, 14- or 16-bit, voltage output SoftSpanTM DACs that operate from 3V to 5V logic and 5V to 15V analog supplies. SoftSpan offers six output spans--two unipolar and four bipolar--fully programmable through the 3-wire SPI serial interface. INL is accurate to 1LSB (2LSB for the LTC2704-16). DNL is accurate to 1LSB for all versions. Six Programmable Output Ranges: Unipolar: 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V Bipolar: 5V, 10V, 2.5V, -2.5V to 7.5V Serial Readback of All On-Chip Registers 1LSB INL and DNL Over the Industrial Temperature Range (LTC2704-14/LTC2704-12) Force/Sense Outputs Enable Remote Sensing Glitch Impulse: < 2nV-sec Outputs Drive 5mA Pin Compatible 12-, 14- and 16-Bit Parts Power-On and Clear to Zero Volts 44-Lead SSOP Package Readback commands allow verification of any on-chip register in just one 24- or 32- bit instruction cycle. All other commands produce a "rolling readback" response from the LTC2704, dramatically reducing the needed number of instruction cycles. A Sleep command allows any combination of DACs to be powered down. There is also a reset flag and an offset adjustment pin for each channel.

The minimum (24-bit wide) loading sequence required for the LTC2704 is a 4-bit command word (C3 C2 C1 C0), followed by a 4-bit address word (A3 A2 A1 A0) and 16 data (span or code) bits, MSB first. Figure 1 shows the SDI input word syntax to use when writing a code or span. If a 32-bit input sequence is needed, the first eight bits must be zeros, followed by the same sequence as for a 24-bit wide input. Figure 2 shows the input and readback sequences for both 24-bit and 32-bit operations. When CS/LD is low, the Serial Readback Output (SRO) pin is an active output. The readback data begins after the command (C3-C0) and address (A3-A0) words have been shifted into SDI. For a 24-bit load sequence, the 16 readback bits are shifted out on the falling edges of clocks 8-23, suitable for shifting into a microprocessor on the rising edges of clocks 9-24. For a 32-bit load sequence, add 8 to these clock cycle counts; see Figure 2b. When CS/LD is high, the SRO pin presents a high impedance (three-state) output. At the beginning of a load sequence, when CS/LD is taken low, SRO outputs a logic low until the readback data begins. When the asynchronous load pin, LDAC, is taken low, all DACs are updated with code and span data (data in B1 buffers is copied into B2 buffers). CS/LD must be high during this operation. The use of LDAC is functionally identical to the "Update B1B2" commands. The codes for the command word (C3-C0) are defined in Table 1; Table 2 defines the codes for the address word (A3-A0). READBACK B1 is the holding buffer. When data is shifted into B1 via a write operation, DAC outputs are not affected. The contents of B2 can only be changed by copying the contents of B1 into B2 via an update operation (B1 and B2 can be changed together, see commands 0110-1001 in Table 1). The contents of B2 (DAC code or DAC span) directly control the DAC output voltage or the DAC output range. Additionally each DAC has one readback register associated with it. When a readback command is issued to a DAC, the contents of one of its four buffers is copied into its readback register and serially shifted out onto the SRO pin. Figure 2 shows the loading and readback sequences. In the 16-bit data field (D15-D0 for the LTC2704-16, see Figure 2a) of any write or update command, the readback pin (SRO) shifts out the contents of the buffer which was specified in the preceding command. This "rolling readback" mode of operation can be used to reduce the number of operations, since any command can be verified during succeeding commands with no additional overhead. Table 1 shows the location (readback pointer) of the data which will be output from SRO during the next instruction. For readback commands, the data is shifted out during the readback instruction itself (on the 16 falling SCK edges immediately after the last address bit is shifted in on SDI). When programming the span of a DAC, the span bits are the last four bits shifted in; and when checking the span of a DAC using SRO, the span bits are likewise the last four bits shifted out. Table 3 shows the span codes. When span information is read back on SRO, the sleep status of the addressed DAC is also output. The sleep status bit, SLP, occurs sequentially just before the four span bits. The sequence is shown in Figures 2a and 2b. See Table 4 for SLP codes. Note that SLP is an output bit only; sleep is programmed by using command code 1110 along with the desired address. Any update command, including the use of LDAC, wakes the addressed DAC(s). Each DAC has two pairs of double-buffered digital registers, one pair for DAC code and the other for the output span (four buffers per DAC). Each double-buffered pair comprises two registers called buffer 1 (B1) and buffer 2 (B2). 2704fc 11 LTC2704 OPERATION OUTPUT RANGES The LTC2704 is a quad DAC with software-programmable output ranges. SoftSpan provides two unipolar output ranges (0V to 5V and 0V to 10V), and four bipolar ranges (2.5V, 5V, 10V and - 2.5V to 7.5V). These ranges are obtained when an external precision 5V reference and analog supplies of 12V to 15V are used. When a reference voltage of 2V and analog supplies of 5V are used, the SoftSpan ranges become: 0V to 2V, 0V to 4V, 1V, 2V, 4V and -1V to 3V. The output ranges are linearly scaled for references other than 2V and 5V (appropriate analog supplies should be used within the range 5V to 15V). Each of the four DACs can be programmed to any one of the six output ranges. DAC outputs can swing to 10V on 10.8V supplies (12V supplies with 10% tolerance) while sourcing or sinking 5mA of load current. Table 1.

System Offset Adjustment Many systems require compensation for overall system offset, which may be an order of magnitude or more greater than the excellent offset of the LTC2704. The LTC2704 has individual offset adjust pins for each of the four DACs. VOSA, VOSB, VOSC and VOSD are referred to their corresponding signal grounds, AGNDA, AGNDB, AGNDC and AGNDD. For noise immunity and ease of adjustment, the control voltage is attenuated to the DAC output: VOS = -0.01 * V(VOSx) [0V to 5V, 2.5V spans] VOS = -0.02 * V(VOSx) [0V to 10V, 5V, -2.5V to 7.5V spans] VOS = -0.04 * V(VOSx) [10V span] The nominal input range of these pins is 5V; other reference voltages of up to 15V may be used if needed. The VOSx pins have an input impedance of 1M. To preserve the settling performance of the LTC2704, these pins 2704fc 15 LTC2704 OPERATION should be driven with a Thevenin-equivalent impedance of 10k or less. If not used, they should be shorted to their respective signal grounds, AGNDx. below approximately 2V; and stays asserted until any valid update command is executed. SLEEP MODE POWER-ON RESET AND CLEAR When power is first applied to the LTC2704, all DACs power-up in 5V unipolar mode (S3 S2 S1 S0 = 0000). All internal DAC registers are reset to 0 and the DAC outputs are zero volts. When the CLR pin is taken low, a system clear results. The command and address shift registers, and the code and configuration B2 buffers, are reset to 0; the DAC outputs are all reset to zero volts. The B1 buffers are left intact, so that any subsequent "Update B1B2" command (including the use of LDAC) restores the addressed DACs to their respective previous states. If CLR is asserted during an operation, i.e., when CS/LD is low, the operation is aborted. Integrity of the relevant input (B1) buffers is not guaranteed under these conditions, therefore the contents should be checked using readback or replaced. When a sleep command (C3 C2 C1 C0 = 1110) is issued, the addressed DAC or DACs go into power-down mode. DACs A and B share a reference inverting amplifier as do DACs C and D. If either DAC A or DAC B (similarly for DACs C and D) is powered down, its shared reference inverting amplifier remains powered on. When both DAC A and DAC B are powered down together, their shared reference inverting amplifier is also powered down (similarly for DACs C and D). To determine the sleep status of a particular DAC, a direct read span command is performed by addressing the DAC and reading its status on the readback pin SRO. The fifth LSB is the sleep status bit (see Figures 2a and 2b). Table 4 shows the sleep status bit's functionality. Table 4. Readback Sleep Status Bit SLP STATUS 0 DAC n Awake 1 DAC n in Sleep Mode The RFLAG pin is used as a flag to notify the system of a loss of data integrity. The RFLAG output is asserted low at power-up, system clear, or if the logic supply VDD dips 2704fc 16 LTC2704 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Overview The LTC2704 is a highly integrated device, greatly simplifying design and layout as compared to a design using multiple current output DACs and separate amplifiers. A similar design using four separate current output DACs would require six precision op amps, compensation capacitors, bypass capacitors for each amplifier, several times as much PCB area and a more complicated serial interface. Still, it is important to avoid some common mistakes in order to achieve full performance. DC752A is the evaluation board for the LTC2704. It is designed to meet all data sheet specifications, and to allow the LTC2704 to be integrated into other prototype circuitry. All force/sense lines are available to allow the addition of current booster stages or other output circuits. The DC752A design is presented as a tutorial on properly applying the LTC2704. This board shows how to properly return digital and analog ground currents, and how to compensate for small differences in ground potential between the two banks of two DACs. There are other ways to ground the LTC2704, but the one requirement is that analog and digital grounds be connected at the LTC2704 by a very low impedance path. It is NOT advisable to split the ground planes and connect them with a jumper or inductor. When in doubt, use a single solid ground plane rather than separate planes. The LTC2704 does allow the ground potential of the DACs to vary by 300mV with respect to analog ground, allowing compensation for ground return resistance. Power Supply Grounding and Noise LTC2704 V+ and V- pins are the supplies to all of the output amplifiers, ground sense amplifiers and reference inversion amplifiers. These amplifiers have good power supply rejection, but the V+ and V- supplies must be free from wideband noise. The best scheme is to prefilter low noise regulators such as the LT(R)1761 (positive) and LT1964 (negative). Refer to Linear Technology Application Note 101, Minimizing Switching Regulator Residue in Linear Regulator Outputs. The LTC2704 VDD pin is the supply for the digital logic and analog DAC switches and is very sensitive to noise. It must be treated as an analog supply. The evaluation board uses an LT1790 precision reference as the VDD supply to minimize noise. The GND pin is the return for digital currents and the AGND pin is a bias point for internal analog circuitry. Both of these pins must be tied to the same point on a quiet ground plane. Each DAC has a separate ground sense pin that can be used to compensate for small differences in ground potential within a system. Since DACs A and B are associated with REF1 and DACs C and D are associated with REF2, the grounds must be grouped together as follows: AGNDA, AGNDB and REFG1 tied together ("GND1" on DC752A) AGNDC, AGNDD and REFG2 tied together ("GND2" on DC752A) This scheme allows compensation for ground return IR drops, as long as the resistance is shared by both DACs in a group. This implies that the ground return for DACs A and B must be as close as possible, and GND1 must be connected to this point through a low current, low resistance trace. (Similar for DACs C and D.) Figure 3 shows the top layer of the evaluation board. The GND1 trace connects REFG1, AGNDA, AGNDB and the ground pin of the LT1236 precision reference (U4.) This point is the ground reference for DACs A and B. The GND2 trace connects REFG2, AGNDC, AGNDD and the ground pin of the other LT1236 precision reference (U5). This point is the ground reference for DACs C and D. Voltage Reference A high quality, low noise reference such as the LT1236 or LT1027 must be used to achieve full performance. The ground terminal of this reference must be connected directly to the common ground point. If GND1 and GND2 are separate, then two references must be used. 2704fc 17 LTC2704 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Voltage Output/Feedback and Compensation The LTC2704 provides separate voltage output and feedback pins for each DAC. This allows compensation for resistance between the output and load, or a current boosting stage such as an LT1970 may be inserted without affecting accuracy. When OUTx is connected directly to RFBx and no additional capacitance is present, the internal frequency compensation is sufficient for stability and is optimized for fast settling time. If a low bandwidth booster stage is used, then a compensation capacitor from OUTx to C1x may be required. Similarly, extra compensation may be required to drive a heavy capacitive load.
