This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

Table 1. PIN DESCRIPTION
PIN NAME DESCRIPTION
Level-triggered control input (active low). This is the frame sychronization signal for the input data. When
SYNC goes low, it enables the input shift register and data are transferred in on the falling edges of the
following clocks. The DAC is updated following the 24th (DAC8411) or 16th (DAC8311) clock cycle,
1 SYNC unless SYNC is taken high before this edge, in which case the rising edge of SYNC acts as an interrupt
and the write sequence is ignored by the DAC8x11. Refer to the DAC8311 and DAC8411 SYNC Interrupt
sections for more details.
2 SCLK Serial Clock Input. Data can be transferred at rates up to 50MHz.
Serial Data Input. Data is clocked into the 24-bit (DAC8411) or 16-bit (DAC8311) input shift register on
3 DIN the falling edge of the serial clock input.
4 AVDD/VREF Power Supply Input, +1.8V to 5.5V.
5 GND Ground reference point for all circuitry on the part.
6 VOUT Analog output voltage from DAC. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.

THEORY OF OPERATION
DAC SECTION
The DAC8311 and DAC8411 are fabricated using TI's
proprietary HPA07 process technology. The
architecture consists of a string DAC followed by an
output buffer amplifier. Because there is no reference
input pin, the power supply (AVDD) acts as the
reference. Figure 102 shows a block diagram of the
DAC architecture.
Figure 102. DAC8x11 Architecture
The input coding to the DAC8311 and DAC8411 is
straight binary, so the ideal output voltage is given by:
Where:
n = resolution in bits; either 14 (DAC8311) or 16
