DESCRIPTION
The DAC5311 is an 8-bit, low-power, single-channel, voltage output, digital-to-analog converters (DAC). It is
monotonic by design and provides excellent linearity and minimizes undesired code-to-code transient voltages
while offering an easy upgrade path within a pin-compatible family. The device uses a versatile, 3-wire serial
interface that operates at clock rates of up to 50 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI™, QSPI™,
MICROWIRE™, and digital signal processor (DSP) interfaces.
DAC5311 uses an external power supply as a reference voltage to set the output range. The devices incorporate
a power-on reset (POR) circuit that ensures the DAC output powers up at 0 V and remains there until a valid
write to the device occurs. It contains a power-down feature, accessed over the serial interface, that reduces
current consumption of the device to 0.1 µA at 1.8 V in power-down mode. The low power consumption of this
part in normal operation makes it ideally suited for portable battery-operated equipment. The power consumption
is 0.55 mW at 5 V, reducing to 2.5 µW in power-down mode.
DAC5311 is pin-compatible with the DAC8311 and DAC8411, offering an easy upgrade path from 8-bit resolution
to 14- and 16-bit resolution. The device is available in a small 6-pin SC70 package. This package offers a flexible
solution over the automotive temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

SYNC
Level-triggered control input (active low). This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data.
When SYNC goes low, it enables the input shift register and data are transferred in on the falling edges
of the following clocks. The DAC is updated following 16th clock cycle, unless SYNC is taken high before
this edge, in which case the rising edge of SYNC acts as an interrupt and the write sequence is ignored
by the DAC5311. See the SYNC Interrupt section for more details.

VOUT
Analog output voltage from DAC. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Serial data input. Data is clocked into the 16-bit input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock
input.

THEORY OF OPERATION
DAC SECTION
The DAC5311 is fabricated using TI's proprietary HPA07 process technology. The architecture consists of a
string DAC followed by an output buffer amplifier. Because there is no reference input pin, the power supply
(AVDD) acts as the reference. Figure 86 shows a block diagram of the DAC architecture.

RESISTOR STRING
The resistor string section is shown in Figure 87. It is simply a string of resistors, each of value R. The code
loaded into the DAC register determines at which node on the string the voltage is tapped off to be fed into the
output amplifier by closing one of the switches connecting the string to the amplifier. It is tested monotonic
because it is a string of resistors.

OUTPUT AMPLIFIER
The output buffer amplifier is capable of generating rail-to-rail voltages on its output which gives an output range
of 0 V to AVDD. It is capable of driving a load of 2 kΩ in parallel with 1000 pF to GND. The source and sink
capabilities of the output amplifier can be seen in the Typical Characteristics section for the given voltage input.
The slew rate is 0.7 V/µs with a half-scale settling time of typically 6µs with the output unloaded.
SERIAL INTERFACE
The DAC5311 has a 3-wire serial interface (SYNC, SCLK, and DIN) compatible with SPI, QSPI, and Microwire
interface standards, as well as most DSPs. See the Serial Write Operation timing diagram for an example of a
typical write sequence.
Input Shift Register
The input shift register is 16 bits wide, as shown in Table 2. The first two bits (PD0 and PD1) are reserved
control bits that set the desired mode of operation (normal mode or any one of three power-down modes) as
indicated in Table 3.
The remaining data bits are eight data bits, followed by don't care bits, as shown in Table 2.

The write sequence begins by bringing the SYNC line low. Data from the DIN line are clocked into the 16-bit shift
register on each falling edge of SCLK. The serial clock frequency can be as high as 50 MHz, making the
DAC5311 compatible with high-speed DSPs. On the 16th falling edge of the serial clock, the last data bit is
clocked in and the programmed function is executed.
At this point, the SYNC line may be kept low or brought high. In either case, it must be brought high for a
minimum of 20 ns before the next write sequence so that a falling edge of SYNC can initiate the next write
sequence. As previously mentioned, it must be brought high again before the next write sequence.
SYNC Interrupt
In a normal write sequence, the SYNC line is kept low for at least 16 falling edges of SCLK and the DAC is
updated on the 16th falling edge. However, bringing SYNC high before the 16th falling edge acts as an interrupt
to the write sequence. The shift register is reset and the write sequence is seen as invalid. Neither an update of
the DAC register contents nor a change in the operating mode occurs, as shown in Figure 88.

POWER-ON RESET TO ZERO-SCALE
The DAC5311 contains a power-on reset circuit that controls the output voltage during power-up. On power-up,
the DAC register is filled with zeros and the output voltage is 0 V. The DAC register remains that way until a valid
write sequence is made to the DAC. This design is useful in applications where it is important to know the state
of the output of the DAC while it is in the process of powering up.
The occurring power-on glitch impulse is only a few millivolts (typically, 17 mV; see Figure 25).

POWER-DOWN MODES
The DAC5311 contains four separate modes of operation. These modes are programmable by setting two bits
(PD1 and PD0) in the control register. Table 3 shows how the state of the bits corresponds to the mode of
operation of the device.

High-Z
When both bits are set to '0', the device works normally with a standard power consumption of typically 80 µA at
1.8 V. However, for the three power-down modes, the typical supply current falls to 0.5 µA at 5 V, 0.4 µA at 3V,
and 0.1 µA at 1.8 V. Not only does the supply current fall, but the output stage is also internally switched from
the output of the amplifier to a resistor network of known values. The advantage of this architecture is that the
output impedance of the part is known while the part is in power-down mode. There are three different options.
The output is connected internally to GND either through a 1-kΩ resistor or a 100-kΩ resistor, or is left
open-circuited (High-Z). Figure 89 illustrates the output stage.

register are unaffected when in power-down. The time to exit power-down is typically 50 µs for AVDD = 5 V and
AVDD = 3 V.
DAC NOISE PERFORMANCE
Typical noise performance is shown in Typical Characteristics. Output noise spectral density at the VOUT pin
versus frequency is depicted for full-scale, midscale, and zero-scale input codes. The typical noise density for
midscale code is 110 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz and at 1 MHz.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
USING THE REF5050 AS A POWER SUPPLY FOR THE DAC5311
As a result of the extremely low supply current required by the DAC5311, an alternative option is to use a
REF5050 5 V precision voltage reference to supply the required voltage to the part, as shown in Figure 90. This
option is especially useful if the power supply is too noisy or if the system supply voltages are at some value
other than 5 V. The REF5050 outputs a steady supply voltage for the DAC5311. If the REF5050 is used, the
current needed to supply DAC5311 is typically 110 µA at 5 V, with no load on the output of the DAC. When the
DAC output is loaded, the REF5050 also needs to supply the current to the load. The total current required (with
a 5-kΩ load on the DAC output) is:
110 µA + (5 V/5 kΩ) = 1.11 mA
The load regulation of the REF5050 is typically 0.002%/mA, which results in an error of 90 µV for the 1.1 mA
current drawn from it.

BIPOLAR OPERATION
The DAC5311 has been designed for single-supply operation but a bipolar output range is also possible using
the circuit in Figure 91. The circuit shown gives an output voltage range of ±5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the
amplifier output is achievable using an OPA211, OPA340, or OPA703 as the output amplifier. For a full list of

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
DAC5311 to 8051 Interface
Figure 92 shows a serial interface between the DAC5311 and a typical 8051-type microcontroller. The setup for
the interface is as follows: TXD of the 8051 drives SCLK of the DAC5311, while RXD drives the serial data line of
the part. The SYNC signal is derived from a bit programmable pin on the port. In this case, port line P3.3 is used.
When data are to be transmitted to the DAC5311, P3.3 is taken low. The 8051 transmits data only in 8-bit bytes;
thus, only eight falling clock edges occur in the transmit cycle. To load data to the DAC, P3.3 remains low after
the first eight bits are transmitted, and a second write cycle is initiated to transmit the second byte of data. P3.3
is taken high following the completion of this cycle. The 8051 outputs the serial data in a format which has the
LSB first. The DAC5311 requires its data with the MSB as the first bit received. Therefore, the 8051 transmit
routine must take this requirement into account, and mirror the data as needed.

Figure 94 shows a serial interface between the DAC5311 and the 68HC11 microcontroller. SCK of the 68HC11

The 68HC11 should be configured so that its CPOL bit is a '0' and its CPHA bit is a '1'. This configuration causes
data appearing on the MOSI output to be valid on the falling edge of SCK. When data are being transmitted to
the DAC, the SYNC line is taken low (PC7). Serial data from the 68HC11 are transmitted in 8-bit bytes with only
eight falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. Data are transmitted MSB first. In order to load data to
the DAC5311, PC7 is held low after the first eight bits are transferred, and a second serial write operation is
performed to the DAC; PC7 is taken high at the end of this procedure.

LAYOUT
A precision analog component requires careful layout, adequate bypassing, and clean, well-regulated power
supplies.
The DAC5311 offers single-supply operation; it is often used in close proximity with digital logic, microcontrollers,
microprocessors, and digital signal processors. The more digital logic present in the design and the higher the
switching speed, the more difficult it is to achieve good performance from the converter.
Because of the single ground pin of the DAC5311, all return currents, including digital and analog return currents,
must flow through the GND pin. Ideally, GND is connected directly to an analog ground plane. This plane should
be separate from the ground connection for the digital components until they are connected at the power entry
point of the system.
The power applied to AVDD should be well-regulated and low-noise. Switching power supplies and dc/dc
converters often have high-frequency glitches or spikes riding on the output voltage. In addition, digital
components can create similar high-frequency spikes as the internal logic switches state. This noise can easily
couple into the DAC output voltage through various paths between the power connections and analog output.
This condition is particularly true for the DAC5311, as the power supply is also the reference voltage for the
DAC.
As with the GND connection, AVDD should be connected to a 5 V power supply plane or trace that is separate
from the connection for digital logic until they are connected at the power entry point. In addition, the 1 µF to 10
µF and 0.1 µF bypass capacitors are strongly recommended. In some situations, additional bypassing may be
required, such as a 100µF electrolytic capacitor or even a Pi filter made up of inductors and capacitors—all
designed to essentially low-pass filter the 5 V supply, removing the high-frequency noise.

PARAMETER DEFINITIONS
With the increased complexity of many different specifications listed in product data sheets, this section
summarizes selected specifications related to digital-to-analog converters.
STATIC PERFORMANCE
Static performance parameters are specifications such as differential nonlinearity (DNL) or integral nonlinearity
(INL). These are dc specifications and provide information on the accuracy of the DAC. They are most important
in applications where the signal changes slowly and accuracy is required.
Resolution
Generally, the DAC resolution can be expressed in different forms. Specifications such as IEC 60748-4
recognize the numerical, analog, and relative resolution. The numerical resolution is defined as the number of
digits in the chosen numbering system necessary to express the total number of steps of the transfer
characteristic, where a step represents both a digital input code and the corresponding discrete analogue output
value. The most commonly-used definition of resolution provided in data sheets is the numerical resolution
expressed in bits.
Least Significant Bit (LSB)
The least significant bit (LSB) is defined as the smallest value in a binary coded system. The value of the LSB
can be calculated by dividing the full-scale output voltage by 2n, where n is the resolution of the converter.
Most Significant Bit (MSB)
The most significant bit (MSB) is defined as the largest value in a binary coded system. The value of the MSB
can be calculated by dividing the full-scale output voltage by 2. Its value is one-half of full-scale.
Relative Accuracy or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
Relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity (INL) is defined as the maximum deviation between the real transfer
function and a straight line passing through the endpoints of the ideal DAC transfer function. INL is measured in
LSBs.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is defined as the maximum deviation of the real LSB step from the ideal 1 LSB
step. Ideally, any two adjacent digital codes correspond to output analog voltages that are exactly one LSB apart.
If the DNL is within ±1 LSB, the DAC is said to be monotonic.
Full-Scale Error
Full-scale error is defined as the deviation of the real full-scale output voltage from the ideal output voltage while
the DAC register is loaded with the full-scale code (0xFFFF). Ideally, the output should be VDD – 1 LSB. The
full-scale error is expressed in percent of full-scale range (%FSR).
Offset Error
Offset error is defined as the difference between actual output voltage and the ideal output voltage in the linear
region of the transfer function. This difference is calculated by using a straight line defined by two codes (for
example, for 16-bit resolution, codes 485 and 64714). Since the offset error is defined by a straight line, it can
have a negative or positive value. Offset error is measured in mV.
Zero-Code Error
Zero-code error is defined as the DAC output voltage, when all '0's are loaded into the DAC register. Zero-scale
error is a measure of the difference between actual output voltage and ideal output voltage (0 V). It is expressed
in mV. It is primarily caused by offsets in the output amplifier.

Gain Error
Gain error is defined as the deviation in the slope of the real DAC transfer characteristic from the ideal transfer
function. Gain error is expressed as a percentage of full-scale range (%FSR).
Full-Scale Error Drift
Full-scale error drift is defined as the change in full-scale error with a change in temperature. Full-scale error drift
is expressed in units of %FSR/°C.
Offset Error Drift
Offset error drift is defined as the change in offset error with a change in temperature. Offset error drift is
expressed in µV/°C.
Zero-Code Error Drift
Zero-code error drift is defined as the change in zero-code error with a change in temperature. Zero-code error
drift is expressed in µV/°C.
Gain Temperature Coefficient
The gain temperature coefficient is defined as the change in gain error with changes in temperature. The gain
temperature coefficient is expressed in ppm of FSR/°C.
Power-Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
Power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is defined as the ratio of change in output voltage to a change in supply
voltage for a full-scale output of the DAC. The PSRR of a device indicates how the output of the DAC is affected
by changes in the supply voltage. PSRR is measured in decibels (dB).
Monotonicity
Monotonicity is defined as a slope whose sign does not change. If a DAC is monotonic, the output changes in
the same direction or remains at least constant for each step increase (or decrease) in the input code.
DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
Dynamic performance parameters are specifications such as settling time or slew rate, which are important in
applications where the signal rapidly changes and/or high frequency signals are present.
Slew Rate
The output slew rate (SR) of an amplifier or other electronic circuit is defined as the maximum rate of change of
the output voltage for all possible input signals.
SR = max
DVOUT(t)
Dt
(3)
Where ΔVOUT(t) is the output produced by the amplifier as a function of time t.
Output Voltage Settling Time
Settling time is the total time (including slew time) for the DAC output to settle within an error band around its
final value after a change in input. Settling times are specified to within ±0.003% (or whatever value is specified)
of full-scale range (FSR).
Code Change/Digital-to-Analog Glitch Energy
Digital-to-analog glitch impulse is the impulse injected into the analog output when the input code in the DAC
register changes state. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in nanovolts-second (nV-s), and is
measured when the digital input code is changed by 1 LSB at the major carry transition.

Digital Feed Through
Digital feed through is defined as impulse seen at the output of the DAC from the digital inputs of the DAC. It is
measured when the DAC output is not updated. It is specified in nV-s, and measured with a full-scale code
change on the data bus; that is, from all '0's to all '1's and vice versa.
Channel-to-Channel DC Crosstalk
Channel-to-channel dc crosstalk is defined as the dc change in the output level of one DAC channel in response
to a change in the output of another DAC channel. It is measured with a full-scale output change on one DAC
channel while monitoring another DAC channel remains at midscale. It is expressed in LSB.
Channel-to-Channel AC Crosstalk
AC crosstalk in a multi-channel DAC is defined as the amount of ac interference experienced on the output of a
channel at a frequency (f) (and its harmonics), when the output of an adjacent channel changes its value at the
rate of frequency (f). It is measured with one channel output oscillating with a sine wave of 1-kHz frequency,
while monitoring the amplitude of 1-kHz harmonics on an adjacent DAC channel output (kept at zero scale). It is
expressed in dB.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is defined as the ratio of the root mean-squared (RMS) value of the output signal
divided by the RMS values of the sum of all other spectral components below one-half the output frequency, not
including harmonics or dc. SNR is measured in dB.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
Total harmonic distortion + noise is defined as the ratio of the RMS values of the harmonics and noise to the
value of the fundamental frequency. It is expressed in a percentage of the fundamental frequency amplitude at
sampling rate fS.
Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
Spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is the usable dynamic range of a DAC before spurious noise interferes or
distorts the fundamental signal. SFDR is the measure of the difference in amplitude between the fundamental
and the largest harmonically or non-harmonically related spur from dc to the full Nyquist bandwidth (half the DAC
sampling rate, or fS/2). A spur is any frequency bin on a spectrum analyzer, or from a Fourier transform, of the
analog output of the DAC. SFDR is specified in decibels relative to the carrier (dBc).
Signal-to-Noise Plus Distortion (SINAD)
SINAD includes all the harmonic and outstanding spurious components in the definition of output noise power in
addition to quantizing any internal random noise power. SINAD is expressed in dB at a specified input frequency
and sampling rate, fS.
DAC Output Noise Density
Output noise density is defined as internally-generated random noise. Random noise is characterized as a
spectral density (nV/√Hz). It is measured by loading the DAC to midscale and measuring noise at the output.
DAC Output Noise
DAC output noise is defined as any voltage deviation of DAC output from the desired value (within a particular
frequency band). It is measured with a DAC channel kept at midscale while filtering the output voltage within a
band of 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz and measuring its amplitude peaks. It is expressed in terms of peak-to-peak voltage
(Vpp).
Full-Scale Range (FSR)

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, modifications, enhancements, improvements,
and other changes to its products and services at any time and to discontinue any product or service without notice. Customers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All products are
sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s standard
warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where
mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask work right,
or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such products or services or a
warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual
property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied
by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive
business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional
restrictions.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all
express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not
responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably
be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing
such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and
acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products
and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be
provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in
such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at
the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are
designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated
products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
