1.2 Power Requirements
This section describes the power requirements of this EVM.
1.2.1
Supply Voltage
The power supply requirement for the digital section (VDD) of this EVM is
typically 5 V, connected via J5-1 or J6-10 when used with another EVM or
interface card. It is referenced to ground through the J5-2 and J6- 5 terminals.
The power supply requirements for the analog section of this EVM are as
follows:
VCC and VSS range from 15.75 V to - 15.75 V maximum, and connects
through J1-3 and J1-1 respectively, or through the J6-1 and J6-2 terminals.
The 5-VA supply connects through J5-3 or J6-3 and the 3.3-VA supply connects through J6-8.
All analog power supplies are referenced to analog ground through the
J1-2 and J6-6 terminals.
The analog power supply for the device under test (DUT), U1, can be supplied
by either 5 VA or 3.3 VA via jumper W1. This allows the DACx573 analog
section to operate from either supply while the I/O and digital section is
powered by 5 V, VDD.
The VCC supply is mainly used as the positive rail of the external output
operational amplifier (op amp), U2, the reference chip, U3, and the reference
buffer, U8. The negative rail of the output op amp, U2, can be selected between
VSS and AGND via jumper W5. The external op amp is installed as an option
to provide output signal conditioning, to boost capacitive load drive (via W15),
and for other output-mode requirements.

EVM Basic Functions
Caution
To avoid potential damage to the EVM board, make sure that the
correct cables are connected to their respective terminals as
labeled on the EVM board.
Stresses above the maximum listed voltage ratings may cause
permanent damage to the device.
1.2.2
Reference Voltage
The 5-V precision voltage reference is provided to supply the external voltage
reference for the DAC through REF02, U3, via jumper W4 by shorting pins 1
and 2. The reference voltage goes through 100-kΩ potentiometer R11 in
series with 20-kΩ R10 to allow the user to adjust the reference voltage to a
desired level. The voltage reference is then buffered through U8A to the DUT.
Test points TP1, TP2, and TP5 are also provided, as well as J4- 18 and J4- 20,
to allow the user to connect another external reference source if the onboard
reference circuit is not used. The external voltage reference must not exceed
5 Vdc.
The REF02 precision reference is powered by VCC (15 V) through the J1 - 3
or J6 - 1 terminal.
Caution
When applying an external voltage reference through TP1 or J4- 20,
make sure that it does not exceed 5 V maximum. Otherwise, this
can permanently damage the installed device under test (DUT).
1.3 EVM Basic Functions
The DACx573 EVM is a functional-evaluation platform to demonstrate the
operation of the DACx573 family of digital - to - analog converters. Functional
evaluation of the DAC device can be conducted with any microprocessor, TI
DSP, or a waveform generator.
Header connectors J2 and P2 allow control signals and data from a host
processor or waveform generator to interface with the DACx573 EVM using
a custom-built cable.
Specific adapter interface boards are also available for many TI DSP Starter
Kits (DSKs). Specify the correct adapter interface board for the TI DSP Starter
Kit to be used. In addition, an MSP430-based platform (HPA449) that uses the
MSP430F449 microprocessor is available that directly interfaces with this
EVM. For more information regarding the adapter - interface board or the
HPA449 platform, please call Texas Instruments or send email to
[email protected].
EVM Overview
1-3
EVM Basic Functions
The DAC outputs can be monitored through the J4 header connector. All the
outputs can be switched by their respective jumpers W2, W11, W12, and W13
for stacking. Stacking allows eight DAC channels to be used, provided that the
I2C address is unique for each EVM board stacked.
In addition, one DAC output can be fed to the noninverting side of output op
amp U2 by installing a jumper across the appropriate pins of J4. Output op amp
U2 must first be configured correctly for the desired waveform characteristic.
Refer to Chapter 3 of this user’s guide for more information.

PCB Layout
2.1 PCB Layout
The DACx573 EVM demonstrates the performance of the installed DAC
device under test, as specified in the data sheet. Careful analysis of the
physical restrictions and performance- degrading factors of the EVM is vital to
a successful design implementation. The obvious attributes that can cause
poor performance of the EVM can be avoided during schematic design by
proper component selection and correct circuit - design practices. The circuit
must include adequate bypassing, identifying, and managing the analog and
digital signals and understanding the mechanical attributes of the
components.
The less obvious part of the design lies in the PCB layout. The main concerns
are component placement and proper signal routing. The bypass capacitors
must be placed as close as possible to the pins and the analog and digital
signals must be properly separated from each other. The power and ground
planes are very important and require careful consideration. A solid plane is
preferred, but sometimes impractical. When solid planes are not possible, a
well - designed split plane can suffice. When considering a split- plane design,
analyze the component placement and carefully divide the board into its
analog and digital sections starting from the device under test. The ground
plane plays an important role in controlling noise and other effects that can
contribute to DAC output error. To ensure that return currents are handled
properly, route the appropriate signals only in their respective sections. Route
analog traces only directly above or below the analog section, and the digital
traces in the digital section. Minimize trace length, but use the widest possible
trace allowable in the design. These design practices are demonstrated in
subsequent figures in this section.
The DACx573 EVM board is constructed on a four- layer printed circuit board
using a copper - clad FR - 4 laminate material. The printed circuit board has a
dimension of 43,1800 mm (1.7000 inch) X 82,5500 mm (3.2500 inch), and the
board thickness is 1,5748 mm (0.0620 inch). Figure 2 - 1 through Figure 2 - 6
show the individual artwork layers.

3.2 Host Processor Interface
Because the host processor controls the DAC, proper operation depends on
the correct interface of the host processor and the EVM board. Properly written
code is also required to operate the DAC.
A host-platform-specific cable assembly can be made to connect the EVM to
the host processor through J2 for the I2C serial control and data signals. The
output is monitored through J4.
An interface adapter board is available for specific TI DSP starter kits as well
as for an MSP430-based microprocessor as mentioned in section 1.3. Using
the interface board alleviates the tedious task of building custom cables and
allows easy configuration of a simple evaluation system.
This DACx573 EVM interfaces with any host processor capable of I2C
protocols or the popular TI DSP. For more information regarding the serial
interface of the particular DAC installed, refer to the specific DAC data sheet,
as listed in the Related Documentation From Texas Instruments section in the
Preface of this user’s guide.

EVM Stacking
3.3 EVM Stacking
EVM stacking enables the designer to evaluate two DACx573s in tandem to
yield an eight-channel output. A maximum of two DACx573 EVMs are allowed
because the output terminal, J4, dictates the number of DAC channels that can
be connected without colliding. Table 3 - 2 shows how the DAC output
channels are mapped to the output terminal, J4, with respect to the jumper
positions of W2, W11, W12, and W13.

Each DAC EVM in a stacked configuration must have a unique I2C address.
This is accomplished by configuring address jumpers W7 and W8 (refer to the
data sheet for I2C addressing).
The LDAC signal can be shared to have a synchronous DAC-output update
and can be hardware-driven by GPIO0. If software control of the LDAC is
desired, the GPIO0 signal must be set low through software or J2-pin 2 can
be strapped to DGND.
3.4 Output Op Amp
The EVM includes an optional signal conditioning circuit for the DAC output
through an external operational amplifier, U2. Only one DAC output channel
can be monitored at any given time because the odd numbered pins (J4 - 1 to
J4 - 7) are tied together. The output op amp gain is configured at two by default.
The unbuffered outputs of the DAC can be probed through the even pins of J4,
the output terminal, which also provides mechanical stability when stacking or
plugging into an interface board. J4 also provides easy access for monitoring
up to eight DAC channels when stacking two EVMs together, as described in
section 3.3.
The following sections describe various configurations of the output amplifier,
U2.

Output Op Amp
3.4.1
Unity Gain Output
The buffered output configuration can be used to prevent loading the DAC.
However, it may present some slight distortion because of the feedback
resistor and capacitor. The user can tailor the feedback circuit to closely match
the desired wave shape by simply removing R7 and C11 and replacing them
with the desired values. R7 can be replaced with a zero-ohm resistor and C11
can be left open, if desired.
Table 3 - 3 shows the jumper settings for the unity gain configuration of the
output buffer in unipolar or bipolar supply mode.

Capacitive Load Drive
Another output configuration option is to drive a wide range of capacitive loads.
All op amps under certain conditions may become unstable depending on
configuration, gain, and load value. In unity gain, the OPA627 op amp performs
well with large capacitive loads. Increasing the gain and adding a load resistor
further improves the capacitive load drive capability.
Table 3 - 5 shows the proper jumper settings of the EVM for the 2× gain output
of the DAC.

Optional Signal Conditioning Op Amp (U8B)
One device of the dual- op amp OPA2132 (U8) is used for reference buffering
(U8A), while the other is unused. This unused op amp (U8B) is available for
user - configured circuitry. The 1206- package resistor and capacitor footprints
associated with the U8B op amp are unpopulated and available for easy
configuration. TP6 and TP7 test points are not installed for maximum flexibility
of input - signal configuration. No test point is available for the output due to
space restrictions, but a wire can be simply soldered to the output of the op
amp via the unused component pads connected to it.
Once the op amp circuit design is determined, it is easily implemented by
simply populating the desired components and leaving unused component
footprints unpopulated.
