description
The TLV5606 is a 10-bit voltage output digital-toanalog converter (DAC) with a flexible 4-wire
serial interface. The 4-wire serial interface allows
glueless interface to TMS320, SPI, QSPI, and
Microwire serial ports. The TLV5606 is programmed with a 16-bit serial string containing 4
control and 10 data bits. Developed for a wide
range of supply voltages, the TLV5606 can
operate from 2.7 V to 5.5 V.

The resistor string output voltage is buffered by a x2 gain rail-to-rail output buffer. The buffer features a Class AB
output stage to improve stability and reduce settling time. The settling time of the DAC is programmable to allow
the designer to optimize speed versus power dissipation. The settling time is chosen by the control bits within
the 16-bit serial input string. A high-impedance buffer is integrated on the REFIN terminal to reduce the need
for a low source impedance drive to the terminal.
Implemented with a CMOS process, the TLV5606 is designed for single supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V.
The device is available in an 8-terminal SOIC package. The TLV5606C is characterized for operation from 0°C
to 70°C. The TLV5606I is characterized for operation from – 40°C to 85°C.

NOTES: 4. The relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity (INL) sometimes referred to as linearity error, is the maximum deviation of the output
from the line between zero and full scale excluding the effects of zero code and full-scale errors.
5. The differential nonlinearity (DNL) sometimes referred to as differential error, is the difference between the measured and ideal 1
LSB amplitude change of any two adjacent codes. Monotonic means the output voltage changes in the same direction (or remains
constant) as a change in the digital input code.
6. Zero-scale error is the deviation from zero voltage output when the digital input code is zero.
7. Zero-scale-error temperature coefficient is given by: EZS TC = [EZS (Tmax) – EZS (Tmin)]/Vref × 106/(Tmax – Tmin).
8. Gain error is the deviation from the ideal output (2Vref – 1 LSB) with an output load of 10 kΩ excluding the effects of the zero-error.
9. Gain temperature coefficient is given by: EG TC = [EG(Tmax) – EG (Tmin)]/Vref × 106/(Tmax – Tmin).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
general function
The TLV5606 is a 10-bit single supply DAC based on a resistor string architecture. The device consists of a serial
interface, speed and power-down control logic, a reference input buffer, a resistor string, and a rail-to-rail output
buffer.
The output voltage (full scale determined by external reference) is given by:
2 REF CODE [V]
0x1000
Where REF is the reference voltage and CODE is the digital input value within the range of 0x000 to 0xFFC.
A power-on reset initially resets the internal latches to a defined state (all bits zero).
serial interface
Explanation of data transfer: First, the device has to be enabled with CS set to low. Then, a falling edge of FS
starts shifting the data bit-per-bit (starting with the MSB) to the internal register on the falling edges of SCLK.
After 16 bits have been transferred or FS rises, the content of the shift register is moved to the DAC latch which
updates the voltage output to the new level.
The serial interface of the TLV5606 can be used in two basic modes:
D
D
Four wire (with chip select)
Three wire (without chip select)
Using chip select (four wire mode), it is possible to have more than one device connected to the serial port of
the data source (DSP or microcontroller). The interface is compatible with the TMS320 family. Figure 15 shows
an example with two TLV5606s connected directly to a TMS320 DSP.

serial interface (continued)
If there is no need to have more than one device on the serial bus, then CS can be tied low. Figure 16 shows
an example of how to connect the TLV5606 to a TMS320, SPI, or Microwire port using only three pins.

Notes on SPI and Microwire: Before the controller starts the data transfer, the software has to generate a falling
edge on the I/O pin connected to FS. If the word width is 8 bits (SPI and Microwire), two write operations must
be performed to program the TLV5606. After the write operation(s), the DAC output is updated automatically

TLV5606 interfaced to TMS320C203 DSP
hardware interfacing
Figure 17 shows an example how to connect the TLV5606 to a TMS320C203 DSP. The serial interface of the
TLV5606 is ideally suited to this configuration, using a maximum of four wires to make the necessary
connections. In applications where only one synchronous serial peripheral is used, the interface can be
simplified even further by pulling CS low all the time as shown in the figure.

Where data_addr points to an address location holding the control bits and the 12 data bits providing the output
voltage data. SDTR is the address of the transmit FIFO of the synchronous serial port.
The following code shows how to use the timer of the TMS320C203 as a time base to generate a voltage ramp
with the TLV5606.
A timer interrupt is generated every 205 µs. The corresponding interrupt service routine increments the output
code (stored at 0x0064) for the DAC, adds the DAC control bits to the four most significant bits, and writes the
new code to the TLV5606. The resulting period of the saw waveform is:
π = 4096 × 205 E-6 s = 0.84 s

Figure 18 shows an example of how to connect the TLV5606 to an MCS51 compatible microcontroller. The
serial DAC input data and external control signals are sent via I/O port 3 of the controller. The serial data is sent
on the RxD line, with the serial clock output on the TxD line. P3.4 and P3.5 are configured as outputs to provide
the chip select and frame sync signals for the TLV5606.

The example program puts out a sine wave on the OUT pin.
The on-chip timer is used to generate interrupts at a fixed frequency. The related interrupt service routine fetches
and writes the next sample to the DAC. The samples are stored in a lookup table, which describes one full period
of a sine wave.
The serial port of the controller is used in mode 0, which transmits 8 bits of data on RxD, accompanied by a
synchronous clock on TxD. Two writes concatenated together are required to write a complete word to the
TLV5606. The CS and FS signals are provided in the required fashion through control of I/O port 3, which has
bit addressable outputs.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
linearity, offset, and gain error using single ended supplies
When an amplifier is operated from a single supply, the voltage offset can still be either positive or negative. With
a positive offset, the output voltage changes on the first code change. With a negative offset, the output voltage
may not change with the first code, depending on the magnitude of the offset voltage.
The output amplifier attempts to drive the output to a negative voltage. However, because the most negative
supply rail is ground, the output cannot drive below ground and clamps the output at 0 V.
The output voltage then remains at zero until the input code value produces a sufficient positive output voltage
to overcome the negative offset voltage, resulting in the transfer function shown in Figure 19.
Output
Voltage
0V
DAC Code
Negative
Offset
Figure 19. Effect of Negative Offset (Single Supply)
This offset error, not the linearity error, produces this breakpoint. The transfer function would have followed the
dotted line if the output buffer could drive below the ground rail.
For a DAC, linearity is measured between zero-input code (all inputs 0) and full-scale code (all inputs 1) after
offset and full scale are adjusted out or accounted for in some way. However, single supply operation does not
allow for adjustment when the offset is negative due to the breakpoint in the transfer function. So the linearity
is measured between full-scale code and the lowest code that produces a positive output voltage.
power-supply bypassing and ground management
Printed-circuit boards that use separate analog and digital ground planes offer the best system performance.
Wire-wrap boards do not perform well and should not be used. The two ground planes should be connected
together at the low-impedance power-supply source. The best ground connection may be achieved by
connecting the DAC AGND terminal to the system analog ground plane, making sure that analog ground
currents are well managed and there are negligible voltage drops across the ground plane.
A 0.1-µF ceramic-capacitor bypass should be connected between VDD and AGND and mounted with short leads
as close as possible to the device. Use of ferrite beads may further isolate the system analog supply from the
digital power supply.
Figure 20 shows the ground plane layout and bypassing technique.

definitions of specifications and terminology
integral nonlinearity (INL)
The relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity (INL), sometimes referred to as linearity error, is the maximum
deviation of the output from the line between zero and full scale excluding the effects of zero code and full-scale
errors.
differential nonlinearity (DNL)
The differential nonlinearity (DNL), sometimes referred to as differential error, is the difference between the
measured and ideal 1 LSB amplitude change of any two adjacent codes. Monotonic means the output voltage
changes in the same direction (or remains constant) as a change in the digital input code.
zero-scale error (EZS)
Zero-scale error is defined as the deviation of the output from 0 V at a digital input value of 0.
gain error (EG)
Gain error is the error in slope of the DAC transfer function.
signal-to-noise ratio + distortion (S/N+D)
S/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the output signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components below
the Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc. The value for S/N+D is expressed in decibels.
spurious free dynamic range (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference between the rms value of the output signal and the rms value of the largest spurious
signal within a specified bandwidth. The value for SFDR is expressed in decibels.
total harmonic distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic components to the rms value of the fundamental signal
and is expressed in decibels.
