Radiation Hardened High Speed,
Monolithic Digital-to-Analog Converter
The HS-565ARH is a fast, radiation hardened 12-bit current
output, digital-to-analog converter. The monolithic chip
includes a precision voltage reference, thin-film R-2R ladder,
reference control amplifier and twelve high-speed bipolar
current switches.
The Intersil Corporation Dielectric Isolation process provides
latch-up free operation while minimizing stray capacitance
and leakage currents, to produce an excellent combination
of speed and accuracy. Also, ground currents are minimized
to produce a low and constant current through the ground
terminal, which reduces error due to code-dependent ground
currents.
HS-565ARH die are laser trimmed for a maximum integral
nonlinearity error of ±0.25 LSB at 25oC. In addition, the low
noise buried zener reference is trimmed both for absolute
value and minimum temperature coefficient.
Specifications for Rad Hard QML devices are controlled
by the Defense Supply Center in Columbus (DSCC). The
SMD numbers listed here must be used when ordering.
Detailed Electrical Specifications for these devices are
contained in SMD 5962-96755. A “hot-link” is provided

Accuracy
Nonlinearity - Nonlinearity of a D/A converter is an
important measure of its accuracy. It describes the deviation
from an ideal straight line transfer curve drawn between zero
(all bits OFF) and full scale (all bits ON).
Differential Nonlinearity - For a D/A converter, it is the
difference between the actual output voltage change and the
ideal (1 LSB) voltage change for a one bit change in code. A
Differential Nonlinearity of ±1 LSB or less guarantees
monotonicity; i.e., the output always increases and never
decreases for an increasing input.

measured with respect to 25oC at high (TH) and low (TL)
temperatures. Gain drift is calculated for both high (TH 25oC) and low ranges (25oC - TL) by dividing the gain error by
the respective change in temperature. The specification is the

Power Supply Sensitivity
Power Supply Sensitivity is a measure of the change in gain
and offset of the D/A converter resulting from a change in 15V or +15V supplies. It is specified under DC conditions
and expressed as parts per million of full scale range per

Glitch
A glitch on the output of a D/A converter is a transient spike
resulting from unequal internal ON-OFF switching times.
Worst case glitches usually occur at half scale or the major
carry code transition from 011 . . . 1 to 100 . . . 0 or vice
versa. For example, if turn ON is greater than turn OFF for
011 . . . 1 to 100 . . . 0, an intermediate state of 000 . . . 0
exists, such that, the output momentarily glitches toward
zero output. Matched switching times and fast switching will
reduce glitches considerably.
Applying the HS-565ARH
OP AMP Selection
The HS-565ARH’s current output may be converted to
voltage using the standard connections shown in Figures 1
and 2. The choice of operational amplifier should be
reviewed for each application, since a significant trade-off
may be made between speed and accuracy. Remember

The HS-565ARH will perform as specified without calibration
adjustments. To operate without calibration, substitute 50Ω
resistors for the 100Ω trimming potentiometers: In Figure 1
replace R2 with 50Ω; also remove the network on pin 8 and
connect 50Ω to ground. For bipolar operation in Figure 2,
replace R3 and R4 with 50Ω resistors.
With these changes, performance is guaranteed as shown
under Specifications, “External Adjustments”. Typical
unipolar zero will be ±0.50 LSB plus the op amp offset.

HS-565ARH
Calibration
Calibration provides the maximum accuracy from a
converter by adjusting its gain and offset errors to zero, For
the HS-565ARH, these adjustments are similar whether the
current output is used, or whether an external op amp is
added to convert this current to a voltage. Refer to Table 7
for the voltage output case, along with Figure 1 or 2.
Calibration is a two step process for each of the five output
ranges shown in Table 7. First adjust the negative full scale
(zero for unipolar ranges). This is an offset adjust which
translates the output characteristic, i.e. affects each code by
the same amount.
Next adjust positive FS. This is a gain error adjustment, which
rotates the output characteristic about the negative FS value.
For the bipolar ranges, this approach leaves an error at the
zero code, whose maximum values is the same as for
integral nonlinearity error. In general, only two values of
output may be calibrated exactly; all others must tolerate
some error. Choosing the extreme end points (plus and
minus full scale) minimizes this distributed error for all other
codes.
The usual specification is based on a 10V step, produced by
simultaneously switching all bits from off-to-on (tON) or onto-off (tOFF). The slower of the two cases is specified, as
measured from 50% of the digital input transition to the final
entry within a window of 0.50 LSB about the settled value.
Four measurements characterize a given type of DAC:
(a) tON, to final value +0.50 LSB
(b) tON, to final value -0.50 LSB
(c) tOFF, to final value +0.50 LSB
(d) OFF, to final value -0.50 LSB
(Cases (b) and (c) may be eliminated unless the overshoot
exceeds 0.50 LSB). For example, refer to Figures 3A and 3B
for the measurement of case (d).
Procedure
As shown in Figure 3B, settling time equals tX plus the
comparator delay (tD = 15ns). To measure tX,
• Adjust the delay on generator number 2 for a tX of
several microseconds. This assures that the DAC
output has settled to its final wave.
• Switch on the LSB (+5V)
Settling Time
This is a challenging measurement, in which the result
depends on the method chosen, the precision and quality of
test equipment and the operating configuration of the DAC
(test conditions). As a result, the different techniques in use
by converter manufacturers can lead to consistently different
results. An engineer should understand the advantage and
limitations of a given test methods before using the specified
settling time as a basis for design.
The approach used for several years at Intersil calls for a
strobed comparator to sense final perturbations of the DAC
output waveform. This gives the LSB a reasonable
magnitude (814mV for the HS-565ARH, which provides the
comparator with enough overdrive to establish an accurate
±0.50 LSB window about the final settled value. Also, the
required test conditions simulate the DACs environment for a
common application - use in a successive approximation
A/D converter. Considerable experience has shown this to
be a reliable and repeatable way to measure settling time.
• Adjust the VLSB supply for 50% triggering at
COMPARATOR OUT. This is indicated by traces of
equal brightness on the oscilloscope display as shown
in Figure 3B. Note DVM reading.
• Switch to LSB to Pulse (P)
• Readjust the VLSB supply for 50% triggering as before,
and note DVM reading. One LSB equals one tenth the
difference in the DVM readings noted above.
• Adjust the VLSB supply to reduce the DVM reading by
5 LSBs (DVM reads 10X, so this sets the comparator to
sense the final settled value minus 0.50 LSB).
Comparator output disappears.
• Reduce generator number 2 delay until comparator
output reappears, and adjust for “equal brightness”.
• Measure tX from scope as shown in Figure 3B. Settling
time equals tX + tD, i.e. tX + 15ns.

Other Considerations
Grounds
The HS-565ARH has two ground terminals, pin 5 (REF GND)
and pin 12 (PWR GND). These should not be tied together
near the package unless that point is also the system signal
ground to which all returns are connected. (If such a point
exists, then separate paths are required to pins 5 and 12).
The current through pin 5 is near zero DC (Note); but pin 12
carries up to 1.75mA of code - dependent current from bits
1, 2, and 3. The general rule is to connect pin 5 directly to
the system “quiet” point, usually called signal or analog
ground. Connect pin 12 to the local digital or power ground.
Then, of course, a single path must connect the
analog/signal and digital/power grounds.
NOTE: Current cancellation is a two step process within the HS565ARH in which code dependent variations are eliminated, the
resulting DC current is supplied internally. First an auxiliary 9-bit R2R ladder is driven by the complement of the DACs input code.
Together, the main and auxiliary ladders draw a continuous 2.25mA
6
from the internal ground node, regardless of input code. Part of the
DC current is supplied by the zener voltage reference, and the
remainder is sourced from the positive supply via a current mirror
which is laser trimmed for zero current through the external terminal
(pin 5).
Layout
Connections to pin 9 (IOUT) on the HS-565ARH are most
critical for high speed performance. Output capacitance of the
DAC is only 20pF, so a small change of additional capacitance
may alter the op amp’s stability and affect settling time.
Connections to pin 9 should be short and few. Component
leads should be short on the side connecting to pin 9 (as for
feedback capacitor C). See the Settling Time section.
Bypass Capacitors
Power supply bypass capacitors on the op amp will serve the
HS-565ARH also. If no op amp is used, a 0.01µF ceramic
capacitor from each supply terminal to pin 12 is sufficient,
since supply current variations are small.
