Serial Interface Input Word DETAILED DESCRIPTION The ICM7712 is a 12-bit voltage output DAC. This device has a 16-bit input shift register and the DAC has a double buffered digital input. This DAC has a guaranteed monotonic behavior and the operating supply range is from 0.9v to 1.32v. Serial Interface and Input Logic This DAC uses a standard 3-wire connection compatible with SPI/QSP and Micro wire interfaces. Data is always loaded in 16-bit words which consist of 4 control bits (MSBs) followed by 12 bits (see Figure 3). Reference Input Serial Data Input The reference input accepts positive DC and AC signals. The voltage at REFIN sets the full-scale output voltage of the DAC. To determine the output voltage for any code, use the following equation. VOUT = VREF x (D / (2n)) Where D is the numeric value of DAC’s decimal input code, VREF is the reference voltage and n is number of bits, i.e. 12 for ICM7712. Output Buffer Amplifier This amplifier has a wide output voltage swing. The actual swing of the output amplifier will be limited by offset error and gain error. See the Applications Information Section for a more detailed discussion. The output amplifier can drive a load of 2.0 K Ω to VDD or GND in parallel with a 500 pF load capacitance. SDI (Serial Data Input) pin is the data input pin for the DAC. Data is clocked in on the falling edge of SCK which has a Schmitt trigger internally to allow for noise immunity on the SCK pin. This specially eases the use for optocoupled interfaces. The Chip Select pin which is the 3rd pin of 8 Lead TSSOP package is active low. This pin frames the input data for synchronous loading and must be low when data is being clocked into the part. There is an onboard counter on the clock input and after the 16th clock pulse the data is automatically transferred to a 16-bit input latch and the 4 bit control word (C3~C0) is then decoded and the appropriate command is performed depending on the control word (see Table 1). Chip Select pin must be pulled high (level-triggered) and back low for the next data word to be loaded in. This pin also disables the SCK pin internally when pulled high. The output amplifier has a full-scale typical settling time of 2 µs and it dissipates about 500 µA with a 1.2V supply voltage.

The return path from the GND to the supply ground should be short with low impedance. Using a ground plane would be ideal. The supply should have some bypassing on it. A 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 µF ceramic with a low ESR can be used. Ideally these would be placed as close as possible to the device. Avoid crossing digital and analog signals, specially the reference, or running them close to each other. Output Swing Limitations The ideal rail-to-rail DAC would swing from GND to VDD. However, offset and gain error limit this ability. Figure 4 illustrates how a negative offset error will affect the output. The output will limit close to ground since this is single supply part, resulting in a dead-band area. As a larger input is loaded into the DAC the output will eventually rise above ground. This is why the linearity is specified for a starting code greater than zero. Figure 5 illustrates how a gain error or positive offset error will affect the output when it is close to VDD. A positive gain error or positive offset will cause the output to be limited to the positive supply voltage resulting in a dead-band of codes close to full-scale. Rev A1.5 NEGATIVE OFFSET Figure 4.
