A combination of current-switch design techniques accomplishes not only 15-bit monotonicity over the entire specified temperature range, but also a maximum end-point linearity error of 0.0015% of full-scale range. Total full-scale gain drift is limited to 10ppm/C maximum (LH and CH grades).

NOTES: (1) Digital inputs are TTL, LSTTL, 54/74C, 54/74HC, and 54/74HTC compatible over the operating voltage range of VDD = +5V to +15V and over the specified temperature range. The input switching threshold remains at the TTL threshold of 1.4V over the supply range of VDD = +5V to +15V. As logic "0" and logic "1" inputs vary over 0V to +0.8V and +2.4V to +10V respectively, the change in the D/A converter output voltage will not exceed 0.0015% of FSR for the LH and CH grades, 0.003% of FSR for the BH grade and 0.006% of FSR for the KG grade. (2) DAC702 (current-output models) is specified and tested with an external output operational amplifier connected using the internal feedback resistor in all parameters except settling time. (3) FSR means full-scale range and is 20V for the 10V range (DAC703), 10V for the 0 to +10V range (DAC701). FSR is 2mA for the 1mA range (DAC702). (4) 0.0015% of full-scale range is equivalent to 1LSB in 15-bit resolution. 0.003% of full-scale range is equivalent to 1LSB in 14-bit resolution. 0.006% of full-scale range is equivalent to 1LSB in 13-bit resolution.

(R) 5 DAC701, 702, 703 DISCUSSION OF SPECIFICATIONS Zero Drift Zero drift is a measure of the change in the output with FFFFH (DAC701) applied to the digital inputs over the specified temperature range. For the bipolar models, zero is measured at 7FFFH (bipolar zero) applied to the digital inputs. This code corresponds to zero volts (DAC703) or zero milliamps (DAC702) at the analog output. The maximum change in offset at tMIN or tMAX is referenced to the zero error at +25C and is divided by the temperature change. This drift is expressed in parts per million of full scale range per degree centigrade (ppm of FSR/C). DIGITAL INPUT CODES The DAC701/702/703 accept complementary digital input codes in either binary format (CSB, unipolar or COB, bipolar). The COB models DAC702/703 may be connected by the user for either complementary offset binary (COB) or complementary two's complement (CTC) codes (see Table I). ANALOG OUTPUT DIGITAL INPUT CODES 0000H 7FFFH 8000H FFFFH DAC701 Complementary Straight Binary (CSB) DAC702/703 Complementary Offset Binary (COB) DAC702/703 Complementary Two's Complement (CTC)* + Full Scale +1/2 Full Scale +1/2 Full Scale -1LSB Zero + Full Scale Bipolar Zero -1LSB -1LSB - Full Scale + Full Scale - Full Scale Bipolar Zero SETTLING TIME Settling time of the D/A is the total time required for the analog output to settle within an error band around its final value after a change in digital input. Refer to Figure 1 for typical values for this family of products. Voltage Output Settling times are specified to 0.003% of FSR (1/2LSB for 14 bits) for two input conditions: a full-scale range change of 20V (DAC703) or 10V (DAC701) and a 1LSB change at the "major carry," the point at which the worstcase settling time occurs. (This is the worst-case point since all of the input bits change when going from one code to the next). * Invert the MSB of the COB code with an external inverter to obtain CTC code. TABLE I. Digital Input Codes. ACCURACY Linearity This specification describes one of the most important measures of performance of a D/A converter. Linearity error is the deviation of the analog output from a straight line drawn through the end points (all bits ON point and all bits OFF point). Current Output Settling times are specified to 0.003% of FSR for a fullscale range change for two output load conditions: one for 10 to 100 and one for 1000. It is specified this way because the output RC time constant becomes the dominant factor in determining settling time for large resistive loads. Differential Linearity Error Differential linearity error (DLE) of a D/A converter is the deviation from an ideal 1LSB change in the output from one adjacent output state to the next. A differential linearity error specification of 1/2LSB means that the output step sizes can be between 1/2LSB and 3/2LSB when the input changes from one adjacent input state to the next. A negative DLE specification of no more than -1LSB (-0.006% for 14-bit resolution) insures monotonicity. Final-Value Error Band, Percent of Full-Scale Range (% of FSR) 1 Monotonicity Monotonicity assures that the analog output will increase or remain the same for increasing input digital codes. The DAC701/702/703 are specified to be monotonic to 14 bits over the entire specification temperature range. DAC701 DAC703 0.1 0.01 0.001 0.01 RL = 100 RL = 1k 0.1 1 10 Settling Time (s) FIGURE 1. Final-Value Error Band vs Full-Scale Range Settling Time. DRIFT Gain Drift Gain drift is a measure of the change in the full-scale range output over temperature expressed in parts per million per degree centigrade (ppm/C). Gain drift is established by: (1) testing the end point differences for each D/A at tMIN, +25C and tMAX; (2) calculating the gain error with respect to the +25C value; and (3) dividing by the temperature change. COMPLIANCE VOLTAGE Compliance voltage applies only to current output models. It is the maximum voltage swing allowed on the output current pin while still being able to maintain specified accuracy. (R) DAC701, 702, 703 DAC702 6 POWER SUPPLY SENSITIVITY Power supply sensitivity is a measure of the effect of a change in a power supply voltage on the D/A converter output. It is defined as a percent of FSR change in the output per percent of change in either the positive supply (+VCC), negative supply (-VCC) or logic supply (VDD) about the nominal power supply voltages (see Figure 2). less. The 3.9M and 270k resistors (20% carbon or better) should be located close to the D/A converter to prevent noise pickup. If it is not convenient to use these high-value resistors, an equivalent "T" network, as shown in Figure 3, may be substituted in place of the 3.9M part. A 0.001F to 0.01F ceramic capacitor should be connected from Gain Adjust to Common to prevent noise pickup.

Range of Zero Adjust REFERENCE SUPPLY All models have an internal low-noise +6.3V reference voltage derived from an on-chip buried zener diode. This reference voltage, available to the user, has a tolerance of 5% (KH models) and 1% (BH models). A minimum of 1.5mA is available for external loads. Since the output impedance of the reference output is typically 1W, the external load should remain constant.

Relationship of Zero and Gain Adjustments for Bipolar D/A Converters, DAC702 and DAC703. (R) 7 DAC701, 702, 703 In many applications it is impractical to sense the output voltage at the output pin. Sensing the output voltage at the system ground point is permissible with the DAC700 family because the D/A converter is designed to have a constant return current of approximately 2mA flowing from Common. The variation in this current is under 20A (with changing input codes), therefore R4 can be as large as 3 without adversely affecting the linearity of the D/A converter. The voltage drop across R4 (R4 x 2mA) appears as a zero error and can be removed with the zero calibration adjustment. This alternate sensing point (the system ground point) is shown in Figures 6, 7, and 8. Zero Adjustment For unipolar (CSB) configurations, apply the digital input code that produces zero voltage or zero current output and adjust the zero potentiometer for zero output. For bipolar (COB, CTC) configurations, apply the digital input code that produces zero output voltage or current. See Table II for corresponding codes and the Connection Diagram for zero adjustment circuit connections. Zero calibration should be made before gain calibration. Gain Adjustment Apply the digital input that gives the maximum positive output voltage. Adjust the gain potentiometer for this positive full scale voltage. See Table II for positive full scale voltages and the Connection Diagram for gain adjustment circuit connections. Figures 7 and 8 show two methods of connecting the current output models (DAC702) with external precision output op amps. By sensing the output voltage at the load resistor (ie, by connecting RF to the output of A1 at RL), the effect of R1 and R2 is greatly reduced. R1 will cause a gain error but is independent of the value of RL and can be eliminated by initial calibration adjustments. The effect of R2 is negligible because it is inside the feedback loop of the output op amp and is therefore greatly reduced by the loop gain. INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS This D/A converter family is laser-trimmed to 14-bit linearity. The design of the device makes the 16-bit resolution available. If 16-bit resolution is not required, bit 15 and bit 16 should be connected to VDD through a single 1k resistor. DAC701 Due to the extremely high resolution and linearity of the D/A converter, system design problems such as grounding and contact resistance become very important. For a 16-bit converter with a 10V full-scale range, 1LSB is 153V. With a load current of 5mA, series wiring and connector resistance of only 30m will cause the output to be in error by 1LSB. To understand what this means in terms of a system layout, the resistance of #23 wire is about 0.021/ft. Neglecting contact resistance, less than 18 inches of wire will produce a 1LSB error in the analog output voltage! RF RDAC A1 4k VOUT R2 RB * RL R3 Common Alternate Ground Sense Connection R4 Sense Output +V To +VCC 1F In Figures 6, 7, and 8, lead and contact resistances are represented by R1 through R5. As long as the load resistance RL is constant, R2 simply introduces a gain error and can be removed during initial calibration. R3 is part of RL, if the output voltage is sensed at Common, and therefore introduces no error. If RL is variable, then R2 should be less than RL MIN/216 to reduce voltage drops due to wiring to less than 1LSB. For example, if RL MIN is 5k, then R2 should be less than 0.08. RL should be located as close as possible to the D/A converter for optimum performance. The effect of R4 is negligible.

Digital Input and Analog Output Relationships. If the output cannot be sensed at Common or the system ground point as mentioned above, the differential output circuit shown in Figure 8 is recommended. In this circuit the output voltage is sensed at the load common and not at the D/A converter common as in the previous circuits. The value of R6 and R7 must be adjusted for maximum common-mode rejection at RL. Note that if R3 is negligible, the circuit of Figure 8 can be reduced to the one shown in Figure 7. Again the effect of R4 is negligible. DAC702 The D/A converter and the wiring to its connectors should be located to provide optimum isolation from sources of RFI and EMI. The key concept in elimination of RF radiation or pickup is loop area; therefore, signal leads and their return conductors should be kept close together. This reduces the external magnetic field along with any radiation. Also, if a single lead and its return conductor are wired close together, they present a small flux-capture cross section for any external field. This reduces radiation pickup in the circuit.

(R) 9 DAC701, 702, 703 APPLICATIONS RF DRIVING AN EXTERNAL OP AMP WITH CURRENT OUTPUT D/AS 5k DAC702 is current output devices and will drive the summing junction of an op amp to produce an output voltage as shown in Figure 9. Use of the internal feedback resistor is required to obtain specified gain accuracy and low gain drift. I OUT 0 to 2mA 4k VOUT Common DAC702 can be scaled for any desired voltage range with an external feedback resistor, but at the expense of increased drifts of up to 50ppm/C. The resistors in the DAC702 ratio track to 1ppm/C but their absolute TCR may be as high as 50ppm/C. FIGURE 9. External Op Amp Using Internal Feedback Resistors. An alternative method of scaling the output voltage of the D/A converter and preserving the low gain drift is shown in Figure 10. RF 5k 0 to 2mA OUTPUTS LARGER THAN 20V RANGE For output voltage ranges larger than 10V, a high voltage op amp may be employed with an external feedback resistor. Use IOUT values of 1mA for bipolar voltage ranges and -2mA for unipolar voltage ranges (see Figure 11). Use protection diodes as shown when a high voltage op amp is used.
