LTC2634
Quad 12-/10-/8-Bit
Rail-to-Rail DACs with
10ppm/°C Reference
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
n
The LTC®2634 is a family of quad 12-, 10- and 8-bit voltage output DACs with an integrated, high accuracy, low
drift 10ppm/°C reference in 16-lead QFN and 10-lead
MSOP packages. It has rail-to-rail output buffers and is
guaranteed monotonic. The LTC2634-L has a full-scale
output of 2.5V, and operates from a single 2.7V to 5.5V
supply. The LTC2634-H has a full-scale output of 4.096V,
and operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply. Each DAC can
also operate with an external reference, which sets the
full-scale output to the external reference voltage.

These DACs communicate via an SPI/MICROWIRE compatible 3-wire serial interface which operates at clock rates
up to 50MHz. Serial data output (SDO), a hardware clear
(CLR), and an asynchronous DAC update (LDAC) capability
are available in the QFN package. The LTC2634 incorporates
a power-on reset circuit. Options are available for reset
to zero-scale or reset to mid-scale in internal reference
mode, or reset to mid-scale in external reference mode
after power-up.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All voltages are with respect to GND.
Note 3: High temperatures degrade operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime
is derated at temperatures greater than 105°C.
Note 4: Linearity and monotonicity are defined from code kL to code
2N – 1, where N is the resolution and kL is given by kL = 0.016 • (2N/ VFS),
rounded to the nearest whole code. For VFS = 2.5V and N = 12, kL = 26
and linearity is defined from code 26 to code 4,095. For VFS = 4.096V and
N = 12, kL = 16 and linearity is defined from code 16 to code 4,095.
Note 5: Inferred from measurement at code 16 (LTC2634-12), code 4
(LTC2634-10) or code 1 (LTC2634-8), and at full-scale.

Note 6: This IC includes current limiting that is intended to protect the
device during momentary overload conditions. Junction temperature can
exceed the rated maximum during current limiting. Continuous operation
above the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair
device reliability.
Note 7: Digital inputs at 0V or VCC.
Note 8: Guaranteed by design and not production tested.
Note 9: Internal Reference mode. DAC is stepped 1/4 scale to 3/4 scale
and 3/4 scale to 1/4 scale. Load is 2kΩ in parallel with 100pF to GND.
Note 10: Temperature coefficient is calculated by dividing the maximum
change in output voltage by the specified temperature range.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(QFN/MSOP)
VOUTA to VOUTD (Pins 1-2, 11-12/Pins 2-3, 8-9): DAC
Analog Voltage Outputs.
LDAC (Pin 3, QFN Only): Asynchronous DAC Update
Pin. If CS/LD is high, a falling edge on LDAC immediately
updates the DAC registers with the contents of the input
registers (similar to a software update). If CS/LD is low
when LDAC goes low, the DAC registers are updated after
CS/LD returns high. A low on the LDAC pin powers up
the DACs. A software power-down command is ignored
if LDAC is low.
CS/LD (Pin 4/Pin 4): Serial Interface Chip Select/Load
Input. When CS/LD is low, SCK is enabled for shifting
data on SDI into the 32-bit shift register. When CS/LD is
taken high, SCK is disabled and the specified command
(see Table 1) is executed.
SCK (Pin 5/Pin 5): Serial Interface Clock Input. CMOS
and TTL compatible.
NC (Pins 6, 15, QFN Only): No Connect. Not internally
connected.
SDO (Pin 7, QFN Only): Serial Interface Data Output. The
serial output of the 32-bit shift register appears at the SDO
pin. The data transferred to the device via the SDI pin is
delayed 32 SCK rising edges before being output at the
next falling edge. This pin is used for daisy-chain operation, it is always driven and never goes high impedance,
even when CS/LD is high. See the Daisy-Chain Operation
section.
SDI (Pin 8/Pin 6): Serial Interface Data Input. Data on
SDI is clocked into the DAC on the rising edge of SCK.
The LTC2634 accepts input word lengths of either 24 or
32 bits.
CLR (Pin 9, QFN Only): Asynchronous Clear Input. A
logic low at this level-triggered input clears all registers
and causes the DAC voltage output to reset to zero
(LTC2634-Z) or mid-scale (LTC2634-MI/-MX). CMOS and
TTL compatible.
REF (Pin 10/Pin 7): Reference Voltage Input or Output.
When external reference mode is selected, REF is an input
(1V ≤ VREF ≤ VCC) where the voltage supplied sets the
full-scale DAC output voltage. When internal reference
is selected, the 10ppm/°C 1.25V (LTC2634-L) or 2.048V
(LTC2634-H) internal reference (half full-scale) is available at REF. This output may be bypassed to GND with up
to 10μF and must be buffered when driving external DC
load current.
REFLO (Pin 13, QFN only): Reference Low Pin. The voltage
at this pin sets the zero-scale voltage of all DACs. This pin
must be tied to GND.
GND (Pin 14/Pin 10): Ground.
VCC (Pin 16/Pin 1): Supply Voltage Input. 2.7V ≤ VCC ≤
5.5V (LTC2634-L) or 4.5V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.5V (LTC2634-H).
Bypass to GND with a 0.1μF capacitor.
Exposed Pad (Pin 17/Pin 11): Ground. Must be soldered
to PCB ground.

LTC2634
OPERATION
The LTC2634 is a family of quad voltage output DACs in
16-lead QFN and 10-lead MSOP packages. Each DAC can
operate rail-to-rail using an external reference, or with its
full-scale voltage set by an integrated reference. Eighteen
combinations of accuracy (12-, 10- and 8-bit), power-on
reset value (zero-scale, mid-scale in internal reference
mode, or mid-scale in external reference mode), and fullscale voltage (2.5V or 4.096V) are available. The LTC2634
is controlled using a 3-wire SPI/MICROWIRE compatible
interface.
Power-On Reset
The LTC2634-HZ/LTC2634-LZ clear the output to zero-scale
when power is first applied, making system initialization
consistent and repeatable.
For some applications, downstream circuits are active
during DAC power-up, and may be sensitive to nonzero
outputs from the DAC during this time. The LTC2634
contains circuitry to reduce the power-on glitch: the
analog output typically rises less than 5mV above zeroscale during power on. In general, the glitch amplitude
decreases as the power supply ramp time is increased.
See “Power-On Reset Glitch” in the Typical Performance
Characteristics section.
The LTC2634-HMI/LTC2634-HMX/LTC2634-LMI/
LTC2634-LMX provide an alternative reset, setting the
output to mid-scale when power is first applied. The
LTC2634-LMI and LTC2634-HMI power up in internal
reference mode, with the output set to a mid-scale voltage of 1.25V and 2.048V, respectively. The LTC2634-LMX
and LTC2634-HMX power up in external reference mode,
with the output set to mid-scale of the external reference.
Default reference mode selection is described in the Reference Modes section.
Power Supply Sequencing
The voltage at REF (Pin 10, QFN/Pin 7, MSOP) must be
kept within the range –0.3V ≤ VREF ≤ VCC + 0.3V (see
Absolute Maximum Ratings). Particular care should be
taken to observe these limits during power supply turnon and turn-off sequences, when the voltage at VCC is in
transition.
Transfer Function
The digital-to-analog transfer function is:
⎛ k ⎞
VOUT(IDEAL) = ⎜ N ⎟ ( VREF – VREFLO ) + VREFLO
⎝2 ⎠
where k is the decimal equivalent of the binary DAC
input code, N is the resolution, and VREF is either 2.5V
(LTC2634-LMI/LTC2634-LMX/LTC2634-LZ) or 4.096V
(LTC2634-HMI/LTC2634-HMX/LTC2634-HZ) when in
internal reference mode, and the voltage at REF when in
external reference mode. The resulting DAC output span
is 0V to VREF , as it is necessary to tie REFLO to GND.
Serial Interface
The CS/LD input is level-triggered. When this input is
taken low, it acts as a chip-select signal, enabling the SDI
and SCK buffers and the input shift register. Data (SDI
input) is transferred at the next 24 rising SCK edges.
The 4-bit command, C3-C0, is loaded first; then the 4-bit
DAC address, A3-A0; and finally the 16-bit data word.
The data word comprises the 12-, 10- or 8-bit input code,
ordered MSB to LSB, followed by 4, 6 or 8 don’t-care
bits (LTC2634-12/LTC2634-10/LTC2634-8 respectively;
see Figure 2). Data can only be transferred to the device
when the CS/LD signal is low, beginning on the first rising
edge of SCK. SCK may be high or low at the falling edge

of CS/LD. The rising edge of CS/LD ends the data transfer
and causes the device to execute the command specified
in the 24-bit input sequence. The complete sequence is
shown in Figure 3a.
The command (C3-C0) and address (A3-A0) assignments
are shown in Tables 1 and 2. The first four commands
in Table 1 consist of write and update operation. A write
operation loads a 16-bit data word from the 24-bit shift
register into the input register of the selected DAC, n. An
update operation copies the data word from the input
register to the DAC register. Once copied into the DAC
register, the data word becomes the active 12-, 10- or
8-bit input code, and is converted to an analog voltage at
the DAC output. Write to and update combines the first
two commands. The update operation also powers up the
DAC if it had been in power-down mode. The data path
and registers are shown in the Block Diagram.

LTC2634
OPERATION
While the minimum input sequence is 24 bits, it may
optionally be extended to 32 bits to accommodate microprocessors that have a minimum word width of 16 bits
(2 bytes). To use the 32-bit width, 8 don’t care bits
must be transferred to the device first, followed by the
24-bit sequence described. Figure 3b shows the 32-bit
sequence.
The 16-bit data word is ignored for all commands that do
not include a write operation.
Daisy-Chain Operation (QFN Package)
The serial output of the shift register appears at the SDO
pin on the QFN package. Data transferred to the device
from the SDI input is delayed 32 SCK rising edges before
being output at the next SCK falling edge, therefore, daisy
chaining multiple LTC2634 DACs requires 32-bit data
write cycles.
The SDO output can be used to facilitate control of multiple
serial devices from a single 3-wire serial port (i.e., SCK,
SDI and CS/LD). Such a “daisy-chain” series is configured
by connecting SDO of each upstream device to SDI of the
next device in the chain. The shift registers of the devices
are thus connected in series, effectively forming a single
input shift register which extends through the entire chain.
Because of this, the devices can be addressed and controlled
individually by simply concatenating their input words;
the first instruction addresses the last device in the chain
and so forth. The SCK and CS/LD signals are common to
all devices in the series. Figure 5 shows a block diagram
for daisy-chain operation.
In use, CS/LD is first taken low. Then the concatenated
input data is transferred to the chain, using SDI of the
first device as the data input. When the data transfer is
complete, CS/LD is taken high, completing the instruction
sequence for all devices simultaneously. A single device
can be controlled by using the no-operation command
(1111) for the other devices in the chain.
Reference Modes
For applications where an accurate external reference is
either not available, or not desirable due to limited space,
the LTC2634 has a low noise, user-selectable, integrated
reference. The integrated reference voltage is internally
amplified by 2x to provide the full-scale DAC output voltage range. The LTC2634-LMI/LTC2634-LMX/LTC2634-LZ
provides a full-scale DAC output of 2.5V. The LTC2634HMI/LTC2634-HMX/LTC2634-HZ provides a full-scale
DAC output of 4.096V. The internal reference can be
useful in applications where the supply voltage is poorly
regulated. Internal Reference mode can be selected by
using command 0110b, and is the power-on default for
LTC2634-HZ/LTC2634-LZ, as well as for LTC2634-HMI/
LTC2634-LMI.
The 10ppm/°C, 1.25V (LTC2634-LMI/LTC2634-LMX/
LTC2634-LZ) or 2.048V (LTC2634-HMI/LTC2634-HMX/
LTC2634-HZ) internal reference is available at the REF pin.
Adding bypass capacitance to the REF pin will improve
noise performance; 0.1μF is recommended, and up to 10μF
can be driven without oscillation. The REF output must be
buffered when driving an external DC load current.
Alternatively, the DAC can operate in external reference
mode using command 0111b. In this mode, an input voltage
supplied externally to the REF pin provides the reference
(1V ≤ VREF ≤ VCC) and the supply current is reduced. The
external reference voltage supplied sets the full-scale DAC
output voltage. External reference mode is the power-on
default for LTC2634-HMX/LTC2634-LMX.
The reference mode of LTC2634-HZ/LTC2634-LZ/
LTC2634-HMI/LTC2634-LMI (internal reference power-on
default), can be changed by software command after power
up. The same is true for LTC2634-HMX/-LMX (external
reference power-on default).
The LTC2634’s QFN package offers a REFLO pin for the
negative reference. REFLO must be connected to GND.

LTC2634
OPERATION
Power-Down Mode
For power-constrained applications, power-down mode can
be used to reduce the supply current whenever less than
four DAC outputs are needed. When in power down, the
buffer amplifiers, bias circuits, and integrated reference
circuits are disabled, and draw essentially zero current.
The DAC outputs are put into a high impedance state, and
the output pins are passively pulled to ground through
individual 200k resistors. Input- and DAC-register contents
are not disturbed during power down.
Any DAC channel or combination of channels can be put
into power-down mode by using command 0100b in
combination with the appropriate DAC address, (n). The
supply current is reduced approximately 20% for each DAC
powered down. The integrated reference is automatically
powered down when external reference is selected using
command 0111b. In addition, all the DAC channels and
the integrated reference together can be put into powerdown mode using power-down chip command 0101b.
When the integrated reference and all DAC channels are
in power-down mode, the REF pin becomes high impedance (typically > 1GΩ). For all power-down commands
the 16-bit data word is ignored.
Normal operation resumes after executing any command
that includes a DAC update, (as shown in Table 1) or pulling the asynchronous LDAC pin low. The selected DAC
is powered up as its voltage output is updated. When
a DAC which is in a powered-down state is powered up
and updated, normal settling is delayed. If less than four
DACs are in a powered-down state prior to the update
command, the power-up delay time is 10μs. However, if
all four DACs and the integrated reference are powered
down, then the main bias generation circuit block has been
automatically shut down in addition to the DAC amplifiers
and reference buffers. In this case, the power-up delay time
is 12μs. The power-up of the integrated reference depends
on the command that powered it down. If the reference is
powered down using the select external reference command (0111b), then it can only be powered back up using
select internal reference command (0110b). However, if
the reference was powered down using power-down chip
command (0101b), then in addition to select internal
reference command (0110b), any command (in software
or using the LDAC pin) that powers up the DACs will also
power up the integrated reference.
Voltage Output
The LTC2634’s integrated rail-to-rail amplifier has guaranteed load regulation when sourcing or sinking up to 10mA
at 5V, and 5mA at 3V.
Load regulation is a measure of the amplifier’s ability to
maintain the rated voltage accuracy over a wide range of
load current. The measured change in output voltage per
change in forced load current is expressed in LSB/mA.
DC output impedance is equivalent to load regulation, and
may be derived from it by simply calculating a change in
units from LSB/mA to ohms. The amplifier’s DC output
impedance is 0.1Ω when driving a load well away from
the rails.
When drawing a load current from either rail, the output
voltage headroom with respect to that rail is limited by
the 50Ω typical channel resistance of the output devices
(e.g., when sinking 1mA, the minimum output voltage is
50Ω • 1mA, or 50mV). See the graph “Headroom at Rails
vs Output Current” in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
The amplifier is stable driving capacitive loads of up to
500pF.

LTC2634
OPERATION
Rail-to-Rail Output Considerations
In any rail-to-rail voltage output device, the output is limited
to voltages within the supply range.
Since the analog output of the DAC cannot go below ground,
it may limit for the lowest codes as shown in Figure 4b.
Similarly, limiting can occur near full-scale when the REF
pin is tied to VCC. If VREF = VCC and the DAC full-scale error
(FSE) is positive, the output for the highest codes limits
at VCC, as shown in Figure 4c. No full-scale limiting can
occur if VREF is less than VCC – FSE.
Offset and linearity are defined and tested over the region
of the DAC transfer function where no output limiting can
occur.
Board Layout
The PC board should have separate areas for the analog and
digital sections of the circuit. A single, solid ground plane
should be used, with analog and digital signals carefully
routed over separate areas of the plane. This keeps digital
signals away from sensitive analog signals and minimizes
the interaction between digital ground currents and the
analog section of the ground plane. The resistance from
the LTC2634 GND pin to the ground plane should be as
low as possible. Resistance here will add directly to the
effective DC output impedance of the device (typically
0.1Ω). Note that the LTC2634 is no more susceptible to
this effect than any other parts of this type; on the contrary, it allows layout-based performance improvements
to shine rather than limiting attainable performance with
excessive internal resistance.
Another technique for minimizing errors is to use a separate power ground return trace on another board layer.
The trace should run between the point where the power
supply is connected to the board and the DAC ground pin.
Thus the DAC ground pin becomes the common point for
analog ground, digital ground, and power ground. When
the LTC2634 is sinking large currents, this current flows
out the ground pin and directly to the power ground trace
without affecting the analog ground plane voltage.
It is sometimes necessary to interrupt the ground plane
to confine digital ground currents to the digital portion of
the plane. When doing this, make the gap in the plane only
as long as it needs to be to serve its purpose and ensure
that no traces cross over the gap.
