ICL7121
16-Bit Multiplying Microprocessor-Compatible D/A Converter
Description
The ICL7121 achieves 0.003% linearity without laser trimming by combining a four quadrant multiplying DAC using thin film resistors with an on-chip PROM-controlled correction circuit. Silicon-gate CMOS circuitry keeps the power dissipation very low. Microprocessor bus interfacing is eased using standard memory WRITE cycle timing and control. The input buffer register is loaded with the 16-bit input and directly controls the output switches. The register is transparent if WR and CS are held low. The ICL7121 is designed and programmed for bipolar operation. There is an offset resistor to the output which should be connected to -V REF and an inverter on the MSB line, giving the DAC a 2's complement bipolar transfer function. Two extra resistors are included on the chip to facilitate the reference inversion, so that only an external opamp is needed.

Definition of Terms
Integral Linerarity Error - Error contributed by deviation of the DAC transfer function from a "best staight line" through the actual plot of transfer function. Normally expressed as a percentage of full scale range or in (sub)multiples of 1 LSB. Differential Linearity Error - The difference between ideal and actual value of the analog output "step size" for any two adjacent digital input code. The ideal "step size" is equal to 2-n of full scale for an n-bit DAC or 1 LSB. It is expressed in (sub)multiples of 1 LSB. Resolution - It is addressing the smallest distinct analog output change that a D/A converter can produce. It is commonly expressed as the number of converter bits. A converter with resolution of n bits can resolve output changes of 2-n of the full-scale range, e.g. 2-n VREF for a unipolar conversion. Resolution by no means implies linearity. Settling Time - Time required for the output of a DAC to settle to within a specified error band around its final value (e.g. 1/2 LSB) for a given digital input change, i.e., all digital inputs LOW to HIGH and HIGH to LOW. Gain Error - The difference between actual and ideal analog output values at full-scale range, ie.e. all digital inputs at HIGH state. It is expressed as a percentage of full-scale range or in (sub)multiples of 1 LBB. Output Capacitance - Capcitance from IOUT terminal to ground.
DAC register address this PROM array. Thus for every combination of the primary DAC's most significant bits a different C-DAC code is selected, allowing correctino of superposition erros. These errors are cuased by bit interaction on the primary ladder's current bus and by voltage non-linearity in the feedback resistor. Superposition errors cannot be corrected by any method that corrects individual bits only, such as laser trimming. The onboard PROM also controls the 6-bit gain DAC. The GDAC reduces gain error to less than 0.006% FSR by diverting to analog ground up to 2% of the current flowing in R FB. Since the PROM programming occurs in packaged form, it corrects for resistor shifts caused by the thermal stresses of packaging, unlike wafer-level trimming methods. Also, since the thin film resistors do not suffer laser trimming stresses, no degradation of time-stability results.
Applications
Bipolar Operation The circuit diagram for the normal configuration of the ICL7121 is shown in Figure 1. The positive and negative reference voltages allow full four-qudrant multiplication. Amplifier A3, together with the internal resistors RINV1 and RINV2, forms a simple voltage inverter circuit to generate VREF for the R OFS offset input pin. This will give the nominal "digital input code/analog otuput value" relationship of Table 1. Note that the value of RFB is equal to 2R so full scale range is 2VREF . The offset binary transfer function can be achieved simply by inverting the MSB. Inversion of the MSB can be done by an inverter or may be done in software.

Detailed Description
The ICL7121 consists of a 16-bit primary DAC, PROM controlled correction DACs, input buffer registers, and microprocessor interface logic. The 16-bit primary DAC is an R-2R thin film resistor ladder with N-channel MOS SPDT current steering switches. Precise balancing of the switch resistances and all other resistors in the ladder results in excellent temperature stability. The low linearity error is achieved by programming a floating polysilicon gate PROM array which controls a 12-bit correction DAC (C-DAC). The most significant bits of the primary

VOS op amp. Digital Interface The ICL7121 has a 16-bit latch onboard and can interface directly to a 16-bit data bus. As shown in Figure 4, external latches or peripheral ICs can be used to interface to an 8-bit data bus. To ensure that the data is written into the onboard latch, the data must be valid 200ns before the rising edge of WR. If WR and CS are both low, the onboard latch is transparent and the input data is directly applied to the internal R-2R ladder switches. While this simplifies interfacing in non-microprocessor systems, having WR low before data is valid may cause additional glitchews in some microprocessor systems. To avoid these glitches, data must be valid at the time WR goes low. All digital interfaces can suffer from capacitive coupling between the digital lines and the analog section. There are two general precautions that will reduce this capacitive coupling problem: 1) reduce stray capacitance between digital lines and analog lines; and 2) reduce the number of transitions on the digital inputs. Careful board layout and shielding can minimize the capacitive coupling (see Figure 5). The activity on the digital input lines can be reduced by using external latches or peripheral interface ICs between the microprocessor bus and the ICL7121. This will reduce the number of transitions on the digital data and control lines of the ICL7121, thereby reducing the amount of digital noise coupled into the sensitve analog sections.
Amplifier A 1 is the output amplifier. An additional amplifier A2 may be used to force AGNDF if the ground reference piont is established elsewhere that at the DAC, as in Figure 2. A feedback compensation capacitor, CF, improves the settling time by reducing ringing. This capacitor is normally in the 10pF - 40pF range, depending on layout and the output amplifier selected. If CF is too small, rigning or oscillation can occur when using an op amp with a high gain bandwidth. If CF is too large, the response of the output amplifier will be overdamped and will settle slowly. The input circuits of some high speed op amps will sink large currents to their negative supply during power up and power down. The Schottky diode at IOUT limits any negative-going transitions to less than -0.4V, avoiding the SCR latchup which could result if significant current was injected into the parasitic diode between IOUT and DGND of the ICL7121. This diode is not needed when using the ICL7650 ultra low

Operational Amplifier Section
The input offset voltage, input current, gain, and bandwidth of the op amps used affect the circuit performance. Since the output impedance of IOUT varies with the digital input code, the input current of amplifier A1 will cause a code-dependent error at VOUT , degrading the linearity. The input bias current should be significantly less than 1 LSB current, which is about 10nA. In a similar manner, any offset voltage in A1 will cause linearity errors. The offset voltage of the output amplifier should be significantly less than 1 LSB (153V at VREF = 5V). The voltage output setting time is highly dependent on the slew rate and gain-bandwidth of A1 , so for high speed operation a high speed op amp such as the HA2600 is recommended. For applications where high speed is not required, the ICL7650 or ICL7652 can be used for A1 . Since the ICL7650/52 offset voltage is less than 5V, no offset trimming is needed. To get a full 5V output swing from these op amps, 7.5V supplies should be used for the ICL7650/52. Amplifer A3 , which is used to generate the inverted reference, needs only to have a stable offset and to be able to drive a 3k load. Since this is strictly a DC amplifier, the low noise ICL7652 is an ideal choice. Any variation in the offset voltage of A3 will result in a drift in the bipolar zero, but will not affect the linearity of the ICL7121. Amplifier A3 , used to generate a high quality ground, also meeds a low offset and the ability to sink up to 2mA.
Grounding Careful consideration must be given to grounding in any high accuracy system. The current into the analog ground point inside the chip varies signficantly with the input code value, and the inevitable resistances between this point and any external connection point can lead to signficant voltage drop errors. For this reason, two separate leads are brought out from this point on the IC: AGNDS and AGNDF. The varying current should be absorbed through the AGND F pin, and the AGNDS pin will then accurately reflect the voltage on the internal current summing point, as shown in Figure 6. Output signals should ideally be referenced to the sense pin AGNDS, as shown in the application circuits.
Multiplying Mode Performance
While the ICL7121 can perform full four-quadrant muliplication, full 0.003% linearity is guaranteed only at VREF = +5V. This is because the voltage coefficient of resistance of the R-2R ladder and the feedback resistor are significant at the 14-bit or 16-bit level. This effect is most significant at high voltages, and adds errors on the order of 0.01% for a 10V full-scale. While the ICL7121 is tested and specified for VREF = +5V, the R-2R ladder has the same voltage across it when VREF = -5V. Therefore, voltage coefficients do not add any error with a -5V reference voltage.
