GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7237A/AD7247A is an enhanced version of the industry
standard AD7237/AD7247. Improvements include operation
from 12 V to 15 V supplies, faster interface times and better
reference variations with VDD. Additional features include faster
settling times.
The AD7237A/AD7247A is a complete, dual, 12-bit, voltage
output digital-to-analog converter with output amplifiers and
Zener voltage reference on a monolithic CMOS chip. No external user trims are required to achieve full specified performance.
Both parts are microprocessor compatible, with high speed data
latches and interface logic. The AD7247A accepts 12-bit parallel data which is loaded into the respective DAC latch using the
WR input and a separate Chip Select input for each DAC. The
AD7237A has a double buffered interface structure and an 8-bit
wide data bus with data loaded to the respective input latch in
two write operations. An asynchronous LDAC signal on the
AD7237A updates the DAC latches and analog outputs.
A REF OUT/REF IN function is provided which allows either
the on-chip 5 V reference or an external reference to be used as
a reference voltage for the part. For single supply operation, two
output ranges of 0 V to +5 V and 0 V to +10 V are available,
while these two ranges plus an additional ± 5 V range are available with dual supplies. The output amplifiers are capable of developing +10 V across a 2 kΩ load to GND.
The AD7237A/AD7247A is fabricated in Linear Compatible
CMOS (LC2MOS), an advanced, mixed technology process
that combines precision bipolar circuits with low power CMOS
logic. Both parts are available in a 24-pin, 0.3" wide plastic and
hermetic dual-in-line package (DIP) and are also packaged in a
24-lead small outline (SOIC) package.

AD7237A/AD7247A
TERMINOLOGY
RELATIVE ACCURACY (LINEARITY)
Relative Accuracy, or endpoint linearity, is a measure of the
maximum deviation of the DAC transfer function from a
straight line passing through the endpoints of the transfer function. It is measured after allowing for zero and full-scale errors
and is 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 or less
over the operating temperature range ensures monotonicity.
SINGLE SUPPLY LINEARITY AND GAIN ERROR
The output amplifiers of the AD7237A/AD7247A can have true
negative offsets even when the part is operated from a single
+12 V to +15 V supply. However, because the negative supply
rail (VSS) is 0 V, the output cannot actually go negative. Instead,
when the output offset voltage is negative, the output voltage
sits at 0 V, resulting in the transfer function shown in Figure 1.
This “knee” is an offset effect, not a linearity error, and the
transfer function would have followed the dotted line if the output voltage could have gone negative.
Normally, linearity is measured between zero (all 0s input code)
and full scale (all 1s input code) after offset and full scale have
been adjusted out or allowed for, but this is not possible in
single supply operation if the offset is negative, due to the knee
in the transfer function. Instead, linearity of the AD7237A/
AD7247A in the unipolar mode is measured between full scale
and the lowest code which is guaranteed to produce a positive
output voltage. This code is calculated from the maximum
specification for negative offset, i.e., linearity is measured between Codes 3 and 4095.
UNIPOLAR OFFSET ERROR
Unipolar Offset Error is the measured output voltage from
VOUTA or VOUTB with all zeros loaded into the DAC latches
when the DACs are configured for unipolar output. It is a combination of the offset errors of the DAC and output amplifier.
BIPOLAR ZERO ERROR
Bipolar Zero Error is the voltage measured at VOUTA or VOUTB
when the DAC is connected in the bipolar mode and loaded
with code 2048. It is due to a combination of offset errors in the
DAC, amplifier offset and mismatch in the application resistors
around the amplifier.
FULL-SCALE ERROR
Full-Scale Error is a measure of the output error when the
amplifier output is at full scale (for the bipolar output range full
scale is either positive or negative full scale). It is measured with
respect to the reference input voltage and includes the offset
errors.
DIGITAL FEEDTHROUGH
Digital Feedthrough is the glitch impulse injected for the digital
inputs to the analog output when the data inputs change state,
but the data in the DAC latches is not changed.
For the AD7237A it is measured with LDAC held high. For the
AD7247A it is measured with CSA and CSB held high.
DIGITAL CROSSTALK
Digital crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one converter due to a change in digital code to the DAC
latch of the other converter. It is specified in nV secs.
DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG GLITCH IMPULSE
Figure 1. Effect of Negative Offset (Single Supply)
This is the voltage spike that appears at the output of the DAC
when the digital code changes before the output settles to its final value. The energy in the glitch is specified in nV secs and is
measured for a 1 LSB change around the major carry transition
(0111 1111 1111 to 1000 0000 0000).

CIRCUIT INFORMATION
External Reference
D/A Section
In some applications, the user may require a system reference or
some other external reference to drive the AD7237A/ AD7247A
reference input. References such as the AD586 5 V reference
provide the ideal external reference source for the AD7237A/
AD7247A (see Figure 9).
The AD7237A/AD7247A contains two 12-bit voltage-mode D/A
converters consisting of highly stable thin film resistors and high
speed NMOS single-pole, double-throw switches. The output
voltage from the converters has the same polarity as the reference voltage, REF IN, allowing single supply operation. The
simplified circuit diagram for one of the D/A converters is
shown in Figure 2.
The REF IN voltage is internally buffered by a unity gain
amplifier before being applied to the D/A converters. The D/A
converters are configured and scaled for a 5 V reference and the
device is tested with 5 V applied to REF IN.
Op Amp Section
The output of the voltage-mode D/A converter is buffered by a
noninverting CMOS amplifier. The ROFS input allows different
output voltage ranges to be selected. The buffer amplifier is capable of developing +10 V across a 2 kΩ load to GND. The
output amplifier can be operated from a single +12 V to +15 V
supply by tying VSS = 0 V. The amplifier can also be operated
from dual supplies (± 12 V to ± 15 V) to allow a bipolar output
range of –5 V to +5 V. The advantages of having dual supplies
for the unipolar output ranges are faster settling time to voltages
near 0 V, full sink capability of 2.5 mA maintained over the entire output range and the elimination of the effects of negative
offsets on the transfer characteristic (outlined previously). A
plot of the single supply output sink capability of the amplifier is
shown in the Typical Performance Graphs section.
INTERFACE LOGIC INFORMATION—AD7247A
Figure 2. D/A Simplified Circuit Diagram
Internal Reference
The AD7237A/AD7247A has an on-chip temperature compensated buried Zener reference (see Figure 3) which is factory
trimmed to 5 V ± 30 mV (± 50 mV for T Version). The reference
voltage is provided at the REF OUT pin. This reference can be
used to provide the reference voltage for the D/A converter (by
connecting the REF OUT pin to the REF IN pin) and the offset
voltage for bipolar outputs (by connecting REF OUT to ROFS).
Table I shows the truth table for AD7247A operation. The part
contains a single, parallel 12-bit latch for each DAC. It can be
treated as two independent DACs, each with its own CS input
and a common WR input. CSA and WR control the loading of
data to the DAC A latch while CSB and WR control the loading
of the DAC B latch. If CSA and CSB are both low, with WR
low, the same data will be written to both DAC latches. All control signals are level triggered and therefore either or both
latches can be made transparent. Input data is latched to the respective latch on the rising edge of WR. Figure 4 shows the input control logic for the AD7247A, while the write cycle timing
diagram for the part is shown in Figure 5.
The reference voltage can also be used as a reference for other
components and is capable of providing up to 500 µA to an external load. The maximum recommended capacitance on REF
OUT for normal operation is 50 pF. If the reference is required
for external use, it should be decoupled to AGND (GND) with
a 200 Ω resistor in series with parallel combination of a 10 µF
tantalum capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor.

The input loading structure on the AD7237A is configured for
interfacing to microprocessors with an 8-bit-wide data bus. The
part contains two 12-bit latches per DAC—an input latch and a
DAC latch. Each input latch is further subdivided into a least
significant 8-bit latch and a most significant 4-bit latch. Only
the data held in the DAC latches determines the outputs from
the part. The input control logic for the AD7237A is shown in
Figure 6, while the write cycle timing diagram is shown in
Figure 7.

However, care must be taken while exercising LDAC during a
write cycle. If an LDAC operation overlaps a CS and WR operation, there is a possibility of invalid data being latched to the
output. To avoid this, LDAC must remain low after CS or WR
return high for a period equal to or greater than t8, the minimum LDAC pulse width.
CS, WR, A0 and A1 control the loading of data to the input
latches. The eight data inputs accept right-justified data. Data
can be loaded to the input latches in any sequence. Provided
that LDAC is held high, there is no analog output change as a
result of loading data to the input latches. Address lines A0 and
A1 determine which latch data is loaded to when CS and WR
are low. The selection of the input latches is shown in the truth
table for AD7237A operation in Table II.
The LDAC input controls the transfer of 12-bit data from the
input latches to the DAC latches. Both DAC latches, and hence
both analog outputs, are updated at the same time. The LDAC
signal is level triggered, and data is latched into the DAC latch
on the rising edge of LDAC. The LDAC input is asynchronous
and independent of WR. This is useful in many applications
especially in the simultaneous updating of multiple AD7237As.

APPLYING THE AD7237A/AD7247A
Unipolar (0 V to +5 V) Configuration
The internal scaling resistors provided on the AD7237A/
AD7247A allow several output voltage ranges. The part can
produce unipolar output ranges of 0 V to +5 V or 0 V to +10 V
and a bipolar output range of ± 5 V. Connections for the various
ranges are outlined below. Since each DAC has its own ROFS
input the two DACs on each part can be set up for different
output ranges.
The 0 V to +5 V output voltage range is achieved by tying ROFSA
or ROFSB to VOUTA or VOUTB. Once again, the AD7237A/
AD7247A can be operated single supply or from dual supplies.
The table for output voltage versus digital code is as in Table
III, with 2 • REF IN replaced by REF IN. Note, for this range,
1 LSB = REF IN • (2 –12) = (REF IN/4096).
Unipolar (0 V to +10 V) Configuration
The first of the configurations provides an output voltage range
of 0 V to +10 V. This is achieved by connecting the output offset resistor, ROFSA, or ROFSB, to AGND (GND for AD7247A).
In this configuration, the AD7237A/AD7247A can be operated
from single or dual supplies. Figure 8 shows the connection diagram for unipolar operation for DAC A of the AD7237A, while
the table for output voltage versus digital code in the DAC latch
is shown in Table III. Similar connections apply to the AD7247A.
The bipolar configuration for the AD7237A/AD7247A, which
gives an output range of –5 V to +5 V, is achieved by connecting ROFSA, or ROFSB, to REF IN. The AD7237A/AD7247A must
be operated from dual supplies to achieve this output voltage
range. Figure 9 shows the connection diagram for bipolar operation for DAC A of the AD7247A. An AD586 provides the reference voltage for the DAC but this could be provided by the
on-chip reference by connecting REF OUT to REF IN. The
code table for bipolar operation is shown in Table IV. Similar
connections apply for the AD7237A.

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING—AD7247A
AD7247A—MC68000 Interface
Figures 10 to 12 show interfaces between the AD7247A and
the ADSP-2101 DSP processor and the 8086 and 68000 16-bit
microprocessors. In all three interfaces, the AD7247A is
memory-mapped with a separate memory address for each DAC.
Interfacing between the AD7247A and the MC68000 microprocessor is achieved using the circuit of Figure 12. Once again, the
12-bit word is written to the selected DAC latch of the
AD7247A in a single MOVE instruction. CSA and CSB have to
be AND-gated to provide a DTACK signal for the MC68000
when either DAC latch is selected.
AD7247A—ADSP-2101 Interface
Figure 10 shows an interface between the AD7247A and the
ADSP-2101. The 12-bit word is written to the selected DAC
latch of the AD7247A in a single instruction, and the analog
output responds immediately. Depending on the clock frequency of the ADSP-2101, either one or two wait states will
have to be programmed into the data memory wait state control
register of the ADSP-2101.

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING—AD7237A
Figure 10. AD7247A to ADSP-2101 Interface
Figures 13 to 15 show the AD7237A configured for interfacing
to microprocessors with 8-bit databus systems. In all cases, data
is right-justified, and the AD7237A is memory-mapped with the
two lowest address lines of the microprocessor address bus driving the A0 and A1 inputs of the converter.
AD7237A—8085A/8088 Interface
AD7247A—8086 Interface
Figure 11 shows an interface between the AD7247A and the
8086 microprocessor. The 12-bit word is written to the selected
DAC latch of the AD7247A in a single MOV instruction, and
the analog output responds immediately.
Figure 13 shows the connection diagram for interfacing the
AD7237A to both the 8085A and the 8088. This scheme is also
suited to the Z80 microprocessor, but the Z80 address/ databus
does not have to be demultiplexed. The AD7237A requires five
separate memory addresses, one for the each MS latch and one
for each LS latch and one for the common LDAC input. Data is
written to the respective input latch in two write operations.

Either high byte or low byte data can be written first to the input latch. A write to the AD7237A DAC Latch address transfers
the data from the input latches to the respective DAC latches
and updates both analog outputs. Alternatively, the LDAC input can be asynchronous or can be common to a number of
AD7237As for simultaneous updating of a number of voltage
channels.
AD7237A—68008 Interface
An interface between the AD7237A and the 68008 is shown in
Figure 14. In the diagram shown, the LDAC is derived from an
asynchronous LDAC signal, but this can be derived from the
address decoder as in the previous interface diagram.

AD7237A—6502/6809 Interface
Figure 15 shows an interface between the AD7237A and the
6502 or 6809 microprocessor. The procedure for writing data to
the AD7237A is as outlined for the 8085A/8088 interface. For
the 6502 microprocessor, the f2 clock is used to generate the
WR, while for the 6809 the E signal is used.
