GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453 are CMOS 8,
10, 12 and 14-bit Current Output digital-to-analog
converters respectively.
These devices operate from a +2.5 V to 5.5 V power supply, making them suited to battery powered applications
and many other applications.
These DACs utilize double buffered 3-wire serial interface
that is compatible with SPITM, QSPITM, MICROWIRETM
and most DSP interface standards.
The 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
Current to Voltage precision amplifier.
The AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453 DACs are
available in small 8-lead TSOT & MSOP packages.
On power-up, the internal shift register and latches are
filled with zeros and the DAC output is at zero scale.
As a result of manufacture on a CMOS sub micron
process, they offer excellent four quadrant multiplication
characteristics, with large signal multiplying bandwidths
of 10MHz.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry,
permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore,
proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

PRELIMINARY TECHNICAL DATA
AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453
TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy
Relative accuracy or endpoint 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 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 max 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
these DACs, ideal maximum output is VREF – 1 LSB. Gain error of the DACs is adjustable to zero with external resistance.
Output Leakage Current
Output leakage current is current which flows in the DAC ladder switches when these 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 will flow in the
IOUT2 line when the DAC is loaded with all 1s
Output Capacitance
Capacitance from IOUT1 or IOUT2 to AGND.
Output Current Settling Time
This is the amount of time it takes for the output to settle to a specified level for a full scale input change. For these devices, it is specifed with a 100 Ω resistor to ground. The settling time specification includes the digital delay from SYNC
rising edge to the full scale output change.
Digital to Analog Glitch lmpulse
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-secs or nV-secs depending upon 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 device digital inputs may be capacitivelly coupled
through the device to show up as noise on the IOUT pins and subsequently into the following circuitry. This noise is digital
feedthrough.
Multiplying Feedthrough Error
This is 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 harmonices are included, such as second to fifth.
THD = 20log √(V22 + V32 + V42 + V52)
V1
Digital Intermodulation Distortion
Second order intermodulation (IMD) measurements are the relative magnitudes of the fa and fb tones generated digitally
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 will provide the specified characteristics.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range(SFDR)
It 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 harmonically or nonharmonically related 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 hte fundamental. Digital SFDR is a measure of the usable dymanic range of
the DAC when the signal is a digitally generated sine wave.

similarly the AD5451 uses ten bits and ignores the four
LSBs, while the AD5450 uses eight bits and ignores the
last six bits.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
DAC SECTION
The AD5450, AD5451, AD5452 and AD5453 are 8, 10,
12 and 14 bit current output DACs consisting of a
segmented (4-Bits) inverting R-2R ladder configuration.
The feedback resistor RFB has a value of R. The value of R
is typically 9.3kΩ (minimum 8kΩ and maximum 12kΩ).
If IOUT1 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 VREF is
always constant and nominally of value R. The DAC
output (IOUT) is code-dependent, producing various
resistances and capacitances. External amplifier choice
should take into account the variation in impedance
generated by the DAC on the amplifiers inverting input
node.
DAC Control Bits C1, C0
Control bits C1 and C0 the user to load and update the
new DAC code and to change the active clock edge. By
default the shift register clocks data in on the falling edge,
this can be changed via the control bits. In this case, the
DAC core is inoperative until the next data frame. A
power cycle resets this back to default condition.
On chip power on reset circuitry ensures the device
powers on with zeroscale loaded to the DAC register and
IOUT line.
TABLE III. DAC CONTROL BITS
Access is provided to the VREF, RFB, and IOUT1 terminals
of the DAC, making the device extremely versatile and
allowing it to be configured in several different operating
modes, for example, to provide a unipolar output and in
four quadrant multiplication in bipolar mode. Note that a
matching switch is used in series with the internal RFB
feedback resistor. If users attempt to measure RFB, power
must be applied to VDD to achieve continuity.

Clock Data to shift register On Rising Edge
SYNC Function
SYNC is an edge-triggered input that acts as a frame
synchronization signal and chip enable. Data can only be
transferred into the device while SYNC is low. To start
the serial data transfer, SYNC should be taken low observing the minimum SYNC falling to SCLK falling
edge setup time, t4.
After the falling edge of the 16th SCLK pulse, bring
SYNC high to transfer data from the input shift register to
the DAC register.
SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5450/AD5451/AD5452/AD5453 have an easy to
use 3-wire interface which is compatible with SPI/QSPI/
MicroWire and DSP interface standards. Data is written
to the device in 16 bit words. This 16-bit word consists of
2 control bits and either 8, 10 12, or 14 data bits as shown
in Figure 2. The AD5453 uses all 14 bits of DAC data.
The AD5452 uses twelve bits and ignores the two LSBs,

With a fixed 10 V reference, the circuit shown above will
give an unipolar 0V to -10V output voltage swing. When
VIN is an ac signal, the circuit performs two-quadrant
multiplication.
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 3.
The following table shows the relationship between digital
code and expected output voltage for unipolar operation.
(AD5450, 8-Bit device).
When an output amplifier is connected in unipolar mode,
the output voltage is given by:
VOUT = -D/2n x VREF

Note that the output voltage polarity is opposite to the
VREF polarity for dc reference voltages.

Bipolar Operation
In some applications, it may be necessary to generate full
4-Quadrant multplying operation or a bipolar output
swing. This can be easily accomplished by using another
external amplifier and some external resistors as shown in
Figure 4. 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
zero (VOUT = - VREF) to midscale (VOUT - 0V ) to full
scale (VOUT = + VREF).

POSITIVE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
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
employed. Since every code change corresponds to a step
function, gain peaking may occur if the op amp has
limited 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.
Note that the output voltage polarity is opposite to the
VREF polarity for dc reference voltages. In order 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 VOUT and GND pins of the reference
become the virtual ground and -2.5V respectively as
shown in Figure 6.

An optional compensation capacitor, C1 can be added in
parallel with RFB for stability as shown in figures 3 and 4.
Too small a value of C1 can produce ringing at the
output, while too large a value can adversely affect the
settling time. C1 should be found empirically but 1-2pF is
generally adequate for the compensation.

ADDING GAIN
In applications where the output voltage is required to be
greater than VIN, gain can be added with an additional
external amplifier or it can also be achieved in a single
stage. It is important to take into consideration the effect
of temperature coefficients of the thin film resistors of the
DAC. Simply placing a resistor in series with the RFB
resistor will causing mis-matches in the Temperature
coefficients resulting in larger gain temperature coefficient
errors. Instead, the circuit of Figure 7 is a recommended
method of increasing the gain of the circuit. 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 great than 1 are required.

It is important to 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 this degrades the integral linearity of
the DAC. Also, VIN must not go negative by more than
0.3V or an internal diode will turn on, exceeding the max

Voltage Switching Mode of Operation
Figure 5 shows these DACs operating in the voltageswitching mode. The reference voltage, VIN is applied to
the IOUT1 pin, IOUT2 is connected to AGND and the
output voltage is available at the VREF 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). Thus an
op-amp is necessary to buffer the output voltage. The
reference input no longer sees a constant input impedance,
but one that varies with code. So, the voltage input should
be driven from a low impedance source.

REFERENCE SELECTION

When selecting a reference for use with the AD5426 series
of current output DACs, pay attention to the references
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
1LSB over the temperature range 0-50oC dictates that the
maximum system drift with temperature should be less than
78ppm/oC. A 14-Bit system with the same temperature
range to overall specification within 2LSBs requires a
maximum drift of 10ppm/oC. By choosing a precision
reference with low output temperature coefficient this
error source can be minimized. Table IV. suggests some
of the suitable dc references available from Analog
Devices that are suitable for use with this range of current
output DACs.

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 RFB is used as the input resistor as shown in Figure 8,
then the output voltage is inversely proportional to the
digital input fraction D. For D = 1-2n the output voltage
is
VOUT = -VIN /D = -VIN /(1-2-n)

AMPLIFIER SELECTION
VDD
The primary requirement for the current-steering mode is
an amplifier with low input bias currents and low input
offset voltage. The input offset voltage of an op amp is
multiplied by the variable gain (due to the code dependent
output resistance of the DAC) of the circuit. A change in
this 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 upon 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 non-monotonic.

As D is reduced, the output voltage increases. For small
values of the digital fraction D, it is important to ensure
that the arnplifier does not saturate and also that the
required accuracy is met. For example, an eight bit DAC
driven with the binary code 10H (00010000), i.e., 16
decimal, in the circuit of Figure 8 should cause the output
voltage to be sixteen times VIN. However, if the DAC has
a linearity specification of +/- 0.5LSB then D
can in fact have the weight anywhere in the range 15.5/256
to 16.5/256 so that the possible output voltage will be in
the range 15.5VIN to 16.5VIN—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
The input bias curent 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 any significant
errors in 12-Bit applications, however for 14-Bit
applications some consideration should be given to
selecting an appropriate amplifier.
Common mode rejection of the op amp is important in
voltage switching circuits, since 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 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, it is important to minimize capacitance

of the DAC. This is done by using low inputs 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
ampliferthat can handle rail to rail signals, there is a large
range of single supply amplifiers available from Analog
Devices.
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 AD5426/AD5432/AD5443 is
mounted should be designed so that the analog and digital
sections are separated, and cofined 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.

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
through the board. A microstrip technique is by far the
best, but not always possible with a doublesided board. In
this technique, the component side of the board is
dedicated to 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 VREF and RFB should also
be matched to minimize gain error. To maximize on high
frequency performance, the I-to-V amplifier should be
located as close to the device as possible.
These DACs should have ample supply bypassing of 10
µF in parallel with 0.1 µF on the supply located as close
to the package as possible, ideally right up against the
device. The 0.1 µF 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 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.
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.
