ad5444/ad5446 rev. c | page 14 of 28 terminology relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity is a measure of the maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the dac transfer function. it is measured after adjusting for zero scale and full scale and is normally expressed in lsbs or as a percentage of full-scale reading. differential nonlinearity 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 over the operating temperature range ensures monotonicity. gain error gain error or full-scale error is a measure of the output error between an ideal dac and the actual device output. for this dac, ideal maximum output is v ref ? 1 lsb. gain error of the dac is adjustable to zero with external resistance. output leakage current output leakage current is current that flows in the dac ladder switches when the ladder is turned off. for the i out 1 line, it can be measured by loading all 0s to the dac and measuring the i out 1 current. minimum current flows in the i out 2 line when the dac is loaded with all 1s. output capacitance capacitance from i out 1 or i out 2 to agnd. output current settling time the amount of time it takes for the output to settle to a speci- fied level for a full-scale input change. for this device, it is specified with a 100 resistor to ground. the settling time specification includes the digital delay from the sync rising edge to the full-scale output change. digital-to-analog glitch impulse the amount of charge injected from the digital inputs to the analog output when the inputs change state. this is normally specified as the area of the glitch in either picoamps per second or nanovolts per second, depending upon whether the glitch is measured as a current or voltage signal. digital feedthrough when the device is not selected, high frequency logic activ- ity on the devices digital inputs can be capacitively coupled through the device to show up as noise on the i out 1 and i out 2 pins and, subsequently, into the following circuitry. this noise is digital feedthrough. multiplying feedthrough error multiplying feedthrough error is due to capacitive feedthrough from the dac reference input to the dac i out 1 line, when all 0s are loaded to the dac. total harmonic distortion (thd) the dac is driven by an ac reference. the ratio of the rms sum of the harmonics of the dac output to the fundamental value is the thd. usually only the lower-order harmonics, such as second to fifth, are included. 1 54 32 v vvvv thd 2222 log20 +++ = digital intermodulation distortion second-order intermodulation (imd) measurements are the relative magnitudes of the fa and fb tones digitally generated by the dac and the second-order products at 2fa ? fb and 2fb ? fa. compliance voltage range the maximum range of (output) terminal voltage for which the device provides the specified characteristics. spurious-free dynamic range (sfdr) the usable dynamic range of a dac before spurious noise interferes or distorts the fundamental signal. sfdr is the measure of difference in amplitude between the fundamental and the largest harmonically or nonharmonically related spur from dc to full nyquist bandwidth (half the dac sampling rate or f s /2). narrow-band sfdr is a measure of sfdr over an arbitrary window size, in this case 50% of the fundamental. digital sfdr is a measure of the usable dynamic range of the dac when the signal is a digitally generated sine wave.
ad5444/ad5446 rev. c | page 15 of 28 general description dac section the ad5444/ad5446 are 12-bit and 14-bit current output dacs consisting of segmented (4 bits), inverting rC 2r ladder configurations. a simplified diagram for the 12-bit ad5444 is shown in figure 37 . 2r s1 2r s2 2r s3 2r s12 2r dac data latches and drivers r r fb i out 1 i out 2 v ref 0 4464-029 rr r figure 37. simplified ladder the feedback resistor (r fb ) has a value of r. the value of r is typically 9 k (7 k minimum, 11 k maximum). if i out 1 is kept at the same potential as gnd, a constant current flows in each ladder leg, regardless of digital input code. therefore, the input resistance presented at v ref is always constant and nomi- nally of value r. the dac output (i out 1) is code-dependent, producing various resistances and capacitances. the external amplifier choice should take into account the variation in impedance generated by the dac on the amplifiers inverting input node. access is provided to the v ref , r fb , and both i out terminals of the dac, making the device extremely versatile and allowing it to be configured in several different operating modes. for example, the device provides unipolar output mode, 4-quadrant multiplication in bipolar mode, and single-supply mode of operation. note that a matching switch is used in series with the internal r fb . power must be applied to v dd to achieve continuity when measuring r fb . circuit operation unipolar mode using a single op amp, the ad5444/ad5446 can easily be configured to provide 2-quadrant multiplying operation or a unipolar output voltage swing, as shown in figure 38 . when an output amplifier is connected in unipolar mode, the output voltage is given by ref n out v d v ?= 2 where: d is the fractional representation of the digital word loaded to the dac: d = 0 to 4095 (12-bit ad5444) d = 0 to 16383 (14-bit ad5446) n is the number of bits. note that the output voltage polarity is opposite to the v ref polarity for dc reference voltages. this dac is designed to operate with either negative or positive reference voltages. the v dd power pin is used by the internal digital logic only to drive the on and off states of the dac switches. the dac is also designed to accommodate ac refer- ence input signals in the range of ?10 v to +10 v. with a fixed +10 v reference, the circuit shown in figure 38 provides a unipolar 0 v to ?10 v output voltage swing. when v in is an ac signal, the circuit performs 2-quadrant multiplication. tabl e 5 shows the relationship between digital code and expected output voltage for unipolar operation. table 5. unipolar code digital input analog output (v) 1111 1111 1111 ?v ref (4095/4096) 1000 0000 0000 ?v ref (2048/4096) = ?v ref /2 0000 0000 0001 ?v ref (1/4096) 0000 0000 0000 ?v ref (0/4096) = 0 ad5444/ ad5446 04588-030 notes 1. r1 and r2 used only if gain adjustment is required. 2. c1 phase compensation (1pf to 2pf) may be required, if a1 is a high speed amplifier. i out 1 i out 2 v ref v dd c1 a1 v out = 0v to ?v ref agnd r2 v dd v ref sdin sclk sync microcontroller r fb r1 figure 38. unipolar operation

ad5444/ad5446 rev. c | page 17 of 28 single-supply applications voltage switching mode of operation figure 40 shows the ad5444/ad5446 dacs operating in the voltage switching mode. the reference voltage (v in ) is applied to the i out 1 pin, i out 2 is connected to agnd, and the output voltage is available at the v ref terminal. in this configuration, a positive reference voltage results in a positive output voltage, making single-supply operation possible. the output from the dac is voltage at a constant impedance (the dac ladder resistance). therefore, an op amp is necessary to buffer the output voltage. the reference input no longer sees a constant input impedance but rather one that varies with code, so the voltage input should be driven from a low impedance source. 04588-032 notes 1. additional pins omitted for clarity. 2. c1 phase compensation (1pf to 2pf) may be required, if a1 is a high speed amplifier. i out 1 gnd v out r2 v in r fb v dd v ref r1 v dd figure 40. single-supply voltage switching mode operation it is important to note that, with this configuration, v in is lim- ited to low voltages, because the switches in the dac ladder do not have the same source-drain drive voltage. as a result, their on resistance differs, which degrades the integral linearity of the dac. in addition, v in must not go negative by more than 0.3 v, or an internal diode turns on, exceeding the maximum ratings of the device. in this type of application, the full range of the multiplying capability of the dac is lost. positive output voltage the output voltage polarity is opposite to the v ref polarity for dc reference voltages. to achieve a positive voltage output, an applied negative reference to the input of the dac is preferred over the output inversion through an inverting amplifier because of the resistors tolerance errors. to generate a negative reference, the reference can be level-shifted by an op amp such that the v out and gnd pins of the reference become the virtual ground and ?2.5 v, respectively, as shown in figure 41 . v dd r fb i out 1 i out 2 c1 v out = 0v to +2.5v gnd v dd = +5v v ref notes 1. additional pins omitted for clarity. 2. c1 phase compensation (1pf to 2pf) may be required, if a1 is a high speed amplifier. adr03 v out v in gnd ?5v +5v ?2.5v 04588-033 figure 41. positive voltage output with minimum components adding gain in applications in which the output voltage is required to be greater than v in , gain can be added with an additional external amplifier, or it can be achieved in a single stage. it is important to take into consideration the effect of the temperature coeffi- cients of the dacs thin film resistors. simply placing a resistor in series with the r fb resistor can cause mismatches in the temperature coefficients and result in larger gain temperature coefficient errors. instead, increase the gain of the circuit by using the recommended configuration shown in figure 42 . r1, r2, and r3 should all have similar temperature coefficients, but they need not match the temperature coefficients of the dac. this approach is recommended in circuits where gains of greater than 1 are required. notes 1. additional pins omitted for clarity. 2. c1 phase compensation (1pf to 2pf) may be required, if a1 is a high speed amplifier. v dd r fb i out 1 i out 2 c1 v out gnd v dd v ref 04588-034 gain = r1 = r2 + r3 r2 r2r3 r2 + r3 r1 v in r3 r2 figure 42. increasing gain of current output dac divider or programmable gain element current-steering dacs are very flexible and lend themselves to many different applications. if this type of dac is connected as the feedback element of an op amp and r fb is used as the input resistor, as shown in figure 43 , then the output voltage is inversely proportional to the digital input fraction, d . for d = 1 ? 2 ? n , the output voltage is v out = ? v in / d = ? v in /(1 ? 2 ? n )

(see tabl e 8 and tabl e 9 for suitable suggestions). reference selection when selecting a reference for use with the ad5444/ad5446 current output dac, pay attention to the output voltage tem- perature coefficient specification. this parameter affects not only the full-scale error but can also affect the linearity (inl and dnl) performance. the reference temperature coefficient should be consistent with the system accuracy specifications. for example, an 8-bit system required to hold its overall speci- fication to within 1 lsb over the temperature range 0c to 50c dictates that the maximum system drift with temperature should be less than 78 ppm/c. a 12-bit system with the same temperature range to overall specification within 2 lsbs requires a maximum drift of 10 ppm/c. by choosing a precision reference with low output temperature coefficient, this error source can be minimized. tabl e 7 suggests some of the dc references available from analog devices that are suitable for use with this range of current output dacs.

ad5444/ad5446 rev. c | page 23 of 28 pcb layout and power supply decoupling in any circuit where accuracy is important, careful considera- tion of the power supply and ground return layout helps to ensure the rated performance. the printed circuit boards on which the ad5444/ad5446 are mounted should be designed so the analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. if the dacs are in systems in which multiple devices require a agnd-to-dgnd connection, the connection should be made at one point only. the star ground point should be established as close as possible to the devices. the dac should have ample supply bypassing of 10 f in parallel with 0.1 f on the supply located as close to the pack- age as possible, ideally right up against the device. the 0.1 f capacitor should have low effective series resistance (esr) and effective series inductance (esi), like the common ceramic types that provide a low impedance path to ground at high frequencies, to handle transient currents due to internal logic switching. low esr, 1 f to 10 f tantalum or electrolytic capacitors should also be applied at the supplies to minimize transient disturbance and filter out low frequency ripple. fast switching signals such as clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other parts of the board, and should never be run near the reference inputs. avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. traces on oppo- site sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. this reduces the effects of feedthrough throughout the board. a microstrip technique, by far the best, is not always possible with a double-sided board. in this technique, the component side of the board is dedicated to the ground plane, while signal traces are placed on the solder side. it is good practice to employ compact, minimum lead-length pcb layout design. leads to the input should be as short as possible to minimize ir drops and stray inductance. the pcb metal traces between v ref and r fb should also be matched to minimize gain error. to maximize high frequency performance, the i-to-v amplifier should be located as close to the device as possible. evaluation board for the dac the evaluation board consists of an ad5444 or ad5446 dac and a current-to-voltage amplifier, ad8065. included on the evaluation board is a 10 v reference, adr01. an external reference can also be applied via an smb input. the evaluation kit consists of a cd with self-installing pc software to control the dac. the software allows the user to write a code to the device. power supplies for the evaluation board the board requires 12 v and +5 v supplies. the 12 v v dd and v ss are used to power the output amplifier, while the +5 v supply is used to power the dac (v dd1 ) and transceivers (v cc ). both supplies are decoupled to their respective ground plane with 10 f tantalum and 0.1 f ceramic capacitors.
