GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5428/AD5440/AD54471 are CMOS, 8-, 10-, and 12-bit,
dual-channel, current output digital-to-analog converters (DACs),
respectively. These devices operate from a 2.5 V to 5.5 V power
supply, making them suited to battery-powered and other
applications.
As a result of being manufactured on a CMOS submicron process,
they offer excellent 4-quadrant multiplication characteristics,
with large signal multiplying bandwidths of up to 10 MHz.
The DACs use data readback, allowing the user to read the
contents of the DAC register via the DB pins. On power-up, the
internal register and latches are filled with 0s, and the DAC
outputs are at zero scale.
he applied external reference input voltage (VREF) determines
the full-scale output current. An integrated feedback resistor (RFB)
provides temperature tracking and full-scale voltage output when
combined with an external I-to-V precision amplifier.
The AD5428 is available in a small 20-lead TSSOP package, and
the AD5440/AD5447 DACs are available in small 24-lead TSSOP
packages.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy (Endpoint Nonlinearity)
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 and full scale and is
typically expressed in LSBs or as a percentage of the full-scale
reading.
Differential Nonlinearity
The difference in the measured change and the ideal 1 LSB
change between two adjacent codes. A specified differential
nonlinearity of −1 LSB maximum over the operating
temperature range ensures monotonicity.
Gain Error (Full-Scale Error)
A measure of the output error between an ideal DAC and the
actual device output. For these DACs, ideal maximum output is
VREF – 1 LSB. The gain error of the DACs is adjustable to zero
with an external resistance.
Output Leakage Current
The current that flows into the DAC ladder switches when they
are turned off. For the IOUT1 terminal, it can be measured by
loading all 0s to the DAC and measuring the IOUT1 current.
Minimum current flows into the IOUT2 line when the DAC is
loaded with all 1s.
Output Capacitance
Capacitance from IOUT1 or IOUT2 to AGND.
Output Current Settling Time
The amount of time for the output to settle to a specified level
for a full-scale input change. For these devices, it is specified
with a 100 Ω resistor to ground.
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 pA-sec or nV-sec,
depending on whether the glitch is measured as a current or
voltage signal.
Digital Feedthrough
When the device is not selected, high frequency logic activity
on the devices digital inputs is capacitively coupled through the
device and produces noise on the IOUT pins and, subsequently,
on the following circuitry. This noise is digital feedthrough.
Multiplying Feedthrough Error
The error due to capacitive feedthrough from the DAC
reference input to the DAC IOUT1 terminal 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 are included,
such as second to fifth harmonics.

log20
Digital Intermodulation Distortion
Second-order intermodulation distortion (IMD) measurements
are the relative magnitude of the fa and fb tones digitally generated
by the DAC and the second-order products at 2fa −  and
2fb − fa.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is 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 harmonic or nonharmonic spur from dc to full
Nyquist bandwidth (half the DAC sampling rate, or fs/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.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
DAC SECTION
The AD5428/AD5440/AD5447 are CMOS 8-, 10-, and 12-bit,
dual-channel, current output DACs consisting of a standard
inverting R-2R ladder configuration. Figure 37 shows a simplified
diagram for a single channel of the 8-bit AD5428. The feedback
resistor RFBA has a value of R. The value of R is typically 10 kΩ
(with a minimum of 8 kΩ and a maximum of 12 kΩ). If IOUT1
and AGND are kept at the same potential, a constant current
flows into each ladder leg, regardless of digital input code.
Therefore, the input resistance presented at VREFA is always
constant and nominally of value R. The DAC output (IOUT) is
code-dependent, producing various resistances and
capacitances. When choosing an external amplifier, take into
account the variation in impedance generated by the DAC on
the amplifier’s inverting input node.

Access is provided to the VREF, RFB, and IOUT terminals of DAC A
and DAC B, making the devices extremely versatile and
allowing them to be configured in several operating modes,
such as unipolar output mode, 4-quadrant multiplication
bipolar mode, or single-supply mode. Note that a matching
switch is used in series with the internal RFBA feedback resistor.
If users attempt to measure RFBA, power must be applied to VDD
to achieve continuity.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
Unipolar Mode
Using a single op amp, these devices 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
VOUT = −VREF × D/2n
where:
D is the fractional representation of the digital word loaded to
the DAC.
D = 0 to 255 (8-bit AD5428)
= 0 to 1023 (10-bit AD5440)
= 0 to 4095 (12-bit AD5447)
n is the resolution of the DAC.
Note that the output voltage polarity is opposite to the VREF
polarity for dc reference voltages. These DACs are designed to
operate with either negative or positive reference voltages. The
VDD power pin is only used by the internal digital logic to drive
the on and off states of the DAC switches.
These DACs are also designed to accommodate ac reference
input signals in the range of –10 V to +10 V.
With a fixed 10 V reference, the circuit in Figure 38 gives a
unipolar 0 V to –10 V output voltage swing. When VIN is an ac
signal, the circuit performs 2-quadrant multiplication.
Table 7 shows the relationship between digital code and the
expected output voltage for unipolar operation using the 8-bit
AD5428.

Bipolar Operation
In some applications, it may be necessary to generate full 4-quad-
rant multiplying operation or a bipolar output swing. This can
easily be accomplished by using another external amplifier and
some external resistors, as shown in Figure 39. In this circuit, the
second amplifier, A2, provides a gain of 2. Biasing the external
amplifier with an offset from the reference voltage results in full
4-quadrant multiplying operation. The transfer function of this
circuit shows that both negative and positive output voltages are
created as the input data (D) is incremented from Code 0 (VOUT =
−VREF) to midscale (VOUT = 0 V) to full scale (VOUT = +VREF).

When VIN is an ac signal, the circuit performs 4-quadrant
multiplication. Table 8 shows the relationship between digital
code and the expected output voltage for bipolar operation
using the 8-bit AD5428.

Stability
In the I-to-V configuration, the IOUT of the DAC and the inverting
node of the op amp must be connected as close as possible, and
proper PCB layout techniques must be used. Because every code
change corresponds to a step function, gain peaking may occur
if the op amp has limited gain bandwidth product (GBP) and
there is excessive parasitic capacitance at the inverting node.
This parasitic capacitance introduces a pole into the open-loop
response, which can cause ringing or instability in the closed-
loop applications circuit.
An optional compensation capacitor, C1, can be added in parallel
with RFBA for stability, as shown in Figure 38 and Figure 39. Too
small a value of C1 can produce ringing at the output, whereas
too large a value can adversely affect the settling time. C1 should
be found empirically, but 1 pF to 2 pF is generally adequate for
the compensation.

SINGLE-SUPPLY APPLICATIONS
Voltage-Switching Mode
Figure 40 shows the DACs operating in voltage switching mode.
The reference voltage, VIN, is applied to the IOUTA pin, and the
output voltage is available at the VREFA terminal. In this config-
uration, a positive reference voltage results in a positive output
voltage, making single-supply operation possible. The output
from the DAC is voltage at constant impedance (the DAC ladder
resistance). Therefore, an op amp is necessary to buffer the
output voltage. The reference input no longer sees constant
input impedance, but one that varies with code. Therefore, the
voltage input should be driven from a low impedance source.
Note that VIN is limited to low voltages because the switches in
the DAC ladder no longer have the same source-drain drive
voltage. As a result, their on resistance differs and degrades the
integral linearity of the DAC. Also, VIN must not go negative by
more than 0.3 V, or an internal diode turns on, causing the device
to exceed the maximum ratings. In this type of application, the full
range of multiplying capability of the DAC is lost.

ADDING GAIN
In applications where the output voltage must be greater than
VIN, gain can be added with an additional external amplifier, or
it can be achieved in a single stage. Consider the effect of temper-
ature coefficients of the thin film resistors of the DAC. Simply
placing a resistor in series with the RFB resistor causes mismatches
in the temperature coefficients, resulting in larger gain temper-
ature coefficient errors. Instead, the circuit in Figure 41 shows
the recommended method for increasing the gain of the circuit.
R1, R2, and R3 must 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. Note that RFB >> R2||R3 and a gain
error percentage of 100 × (R2||R3)/RFB must be taken into
consideration.

DIVIDER OR PROGRAMMABLE GAIN ELEMENT
Current-steering DACs are very flexible and lend themselves to
many applications. If this type of DAC is connected as the
feedback element of an op amp and RFBA is used as the input
resistor, as shown in Figure 42, the output voltage is inversely
proportional to the digital input fraction, D.
For D = 1 − 2−n, the output voltage is

Figure 42. Current-Steering DAC Used as a Divider or
Programmable Gain Element
As D is reduced, the output voltage increases. For small values
of the digital fraction D, it is important to ensure that the
amplifier does not saturate and that the required accuracy is
met. For example, an 8-bit DAC driven with the binary code
0x10 (0001 0000)—that is, 16 decimal—in the circuit of
Figure 42 should cause the output voltage to be 16 times VIN.
However, if the DAC has a linearity specification of ±0.5 LSB, D
can have a weight in the range of 15.5/256 to 16.5/256 so that the
possible output voltage is in the range of 15.5 VIN to 16.5 VIN
an error of 3%, even though the DAC itself has a maximum
error of 0.2%.
DAC leakage current is also a potential error source in divider
circuits. The leakage current must be counterbalanced by an
opposite current supplied from the op amp through the DAC.
Because only a fraction, D, of the current into the VREF terminal
is routed to the IOUT1 terminal, the output voltage changes as
follows:
Output Error Voltage Due to DAC Leakage
DRLeakage /
where R is the DAC resistance at the VREF terminal.
For a DAC leakage current of 10 nA, R = 10 kΩ, and a gain (that
is, 1/D) of 16, the error voltage is 1.6 mV.
REFERENCE SELECTION
When selecting a reference for use with the
AD5428/AD5440/AD5447 series of current output DACs, pay
attention to the reference’s output voltage temperature coefficient
specification. This parameter not only affects 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 specification to within 1 LSB over the
temperature range 0° to 50°C dictates that the maximum system
drift with temp-erature 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. Choosing
a precision reference with low output temperature coefficient
minimizes this error source. Table 9 lists some references
available from Analog Devices that are suitable for use with these
current output DACs.
AMPLIFIER SELECTION
The primary requirement for the current-steering mode is an
amplifier with low input bias currents and low input offset
voltage. Because of the code-dependent output resistance of the
DAC, the input offset voltage of an op amp is multiplied by the
variable gain of the circuit. A change in the noise gain between
two adjacent digital fractions produces a step change in the
output voltage due to the amplifier’s input offset voltage. This
output voltage change is superimposed on the desired change in
output between the two codes and gives rise to a differential
linearity error, which, if large enough, could cause the DAC to
be nonmonotonic. The input offset voltage should be <1/4 LSB
to ensure monotonic behavior when stepping through codes.
The input bias current of an op amp also generates an offset at
the voltage output as a result of the bias current flowing in the
feedback resistor, RFB. Most op amps have input bias currents
low enough to prevent significant errors in 12-bit applications.
Common-mode rejection of the op amp is important in voltage-
switching circuits, because it produces a code-dependent error
at the voltage output of the circuit. Most op amps have adequate
common-mode rejection for use at 8-, 10-, and 12-bit resolution.
Provided that the DAC switches are driven from true wideband,
low impedance sources (VIN and AGND), they settle quickly.
Consequently, the slew rate and settling time of a voltage-
switching DAC circuit is determined largely by the output op
amp. To obtain minimum settling time in this configuration,
minimize capacitance at the VREF node (the voltage output node
in this application) of the DAC by using low input capacitance
buffer amplifiers and careful board design.
Most single-supply circuits include ground as part of the analog
signal range, which in turns requires an amplifier that can handle
rail-to-rail signals. Analog Devices offers a wide variety of single-
supply amplifiers (see Table 10 and Table 11).

PARALLEL INTERFACE
Data is loaded into the AD5428/AD5440/AD5447 in 8-, 10-, or
12-bit parallel word format. Control lines CS and R/W allow
data to be written to or read from the DAC register. A write
event takes place when CS and R/W are brought low, data
available on the data lines fills the shift register, and the rising
edge of CS latches the data and transfers the latched data-word
to the DAC register. The DAC latches are not transparent;
therefore, a write sequence must consist of a falling and rising
edge on CS to ensure that data is loaded into the DAC register
and its analog equivalent is reflected on the DAC output.
A read event takes place when R/W is held high and CS is
brought low. Data is loaded from the DAC register, goes back
into the input register, and is output onto the data line, where it
can be read back to the controller for verification or diagnostic
purposes. The input and DAC registers of these devices are not
transparent; therefore, a falling and rising edge of CS is required
to load each data-word.

data memory access, the address latch enable (ALE) mode is
enabled. The low byte of the address is latched with this output
pulse during access to the external memory. AD0 to AD7 are
the multiplexed low order addresses and data bus, and they
require strong internal pull-ups when emitting 1s. During
access to external memory, A8 to A15 are the high order
address bytes. Because these ports are open drain, they also
require strong internal pull-ups when emitting 1s.

PCB LAYOUT AND POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful
consideration of the power supply and ground return layout
helps to ensure the rated performance. The printed circuit
board on which the AD5428/AD5440/AD5447 is mounted
should be designed so that the analog and digital sections are
separate and confined to certain areas of the board. If the DAC
is in a system where multiple devices require an 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 device.
These DACs should have ample supply bypassing of 10 µF in
parallel with 0.1 µF on the supply located as close as possible to
the package, ideally right up against the device. The 0.1 µF
capacitor should have low effective series resistance (ESR) and
low effective series inductance (ESI), like the common ceramic
types of capacitors that provide a low impedance path to ground
at high frequencies, to handle transient currents due to internal
logic switching. Low ESR 1 µF to 10 µF tantalum or electrolytic
capacitors should also be applied at the supplies to minimize
transient disturbance and filter out low frequency ripple.
Components, such as clocks, that produce fast-switching signals
should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating noise
to other parts of the board, and they should never be run near
the reference inputs.
Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on
opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each
other. This reduces the effects of feedthrough on the board. A
microstrip technique is by far the best method, but its use is not
always possible with a double-sided board. In this technique,
the component side of the board is dedicated to the ground
plane, and signal traces are placed on the soldered side.
It is good practice to use 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 VREF and RFB should also be
matched to minimize gain error. To maximize high frequency
performance, the I-to-V amplifier should be located as close as
possible to the device.
EVALUATION BOARD FOR THE AD5447
The evaluation board consists of an AD5447 DAC and a
current-to-voltage amplifier, the AD8065. Included on the
evaluation board is a 10 V reference, the ADR01. An external
reference may also be applied via an SMB input.
The evaluation kit consists of a CD-ROM with self-installing
PC software to control the DAC. The software simply 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 VDD
and −12 V VSS are used to power the output amplifier; the +5 V
is used to power the DAC (VDD1) and transceivers (VCC).
Both supplies are decoupled to their respective ground plane
with 10 F tantalum and 0.1 F ceramic capacitors.
