FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AD5301: buffered voltage output 8-bit DAC
AD5311: buffered voltage output 10-bit DAC
AD5321: buffered voltage output 12-bit DAC
6-lead SOT-23 and 8-lead MSOP packages
Micropower operation: 120 μA @ 3 V
2-wire (I2C®-compatible) serial interface
Data readback capability
2.5 V to 5.5 V power supply
Guaranteed monotonic by design over all codes
Power-down to 50 nA @ 3 V
Reference derived from power supply
Power-on reset to 0 V
On-chip rail-to-rail output buffer amplifier
3 power-down functions
The AD5301/AD5311/AD53211 are single 8-/10-/12-bit, buffered, voltage-output DACs that operate from a single 2.5 V to
5.5 V supply, consuming 120 μA at 3 V. The on-chip output
amplifier allows rail-to-rail output swing with a slew rate of
0.7 V/μs. It uses a 2-wire (I2C-compatible) serial interface that
operates at clock rates up to 400 kHz. Multiple devices can share
the same bus.
APPLICATIONS
The reference for the DAC is derived from the power supply
inputs and thus gives the widest dynamic output range. These
parts incorporate a power-on reset circuit, which ensures that
the DAC output powers up to 0 V and remains there until a
valid write takes place. The parts contain a power-down feature
that reduces the current consumption of the device to 50 nA at
3 V and provides software-selectable output loads while in
power-down mode.
Portable battery-powered instruments
Digital gain and offset adjustment
Programmable voltage and current sources
Programmable attenuators
The low power consumption in normal operation makes these
DACs ideally suited to portable battery-operated equipment. The
power consumption is 0.75 mW at 5 V and 0.36 mW at 3 V,
reducing to 1 μW in all power-down modes.

Description
Power Supply Input. These parts can be operated from 2.5 V to 5.5 V and the supply should be decoupled
with a 10 μF in parallel with a 0.1 μF capacitor to GND.
Address Input. Sets the least significant bit of the 7-bit slave address.
Address Input. Sets the second least significant bit of the 7-bit slave address.
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from the DAC. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Active Low Control Input. Acts as a hardware power-down option. This pin overrides any software
power-down option. The DAC output goes three-state and the current consumption of the part
drops to 50 nA @ 3 V (200 nA @ 5 V).
Serial Clock Line. This is used in conjunction with the SDA line to clock data into the 16-bit input shift
register. Clock rates of up to 400 kbps can be accommodated in the I2C-compatible interface. SCL may
be CMOS/TTL driven.
Serial Data Line. This is used in conjunction with the SCL line to clock data into the 16-bit input shift
register during the write cycle and to read back one or two bytes of data (one byte for the AD5301,
two bytes for the AD5311/AD5321) during the read cycle. It is a bidirectional open-drain data line that
should be pulled to the supply with an external pull-up resistor. If not used in readback mode, SDA may
be CMOS/TTL driven.
Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Part.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy
For the DAC, relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity (INL) is
a measure of the maximum deviation, in LSBs, from a straight
line passing through the actual endpoints of the DAC transfer
function. Typical INL vs. code plots can be seen in Figure 5 to
Figure 7.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
DNL is the difference between the measured change and the
ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes. A specified
differential nonlinearity of ±1 LSB maximum ensures monotonicity. These DACs are guaranteed monotonic by design over all
codes. Typical DNL vs. code plots can be seen in Figure 8 to
Figure 10.
Zero-Code Error
Zero-code error is a measure of the output error when zero
code (0x00) is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the output
should be 0 V. The zero-code error of the AD5301/AD5311/
AD5321 is always positive because the output of the DAC
cannot go below 0 V, due to a combination of the offset errors
in the DAC and output amplifier. It is expressed in millivolts,
see Figure 12.
Full-Scale Error (FSR)
Full-scale error is a measure of the output error when full
scale is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the output should
be VDD – 1 LSB. Full-scale error is expressed in percent of FSR.
A plot can be seen in Figure 12.
Gain Error
Gain error is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the
deviation in slope of the actual DAC transfer characteristic from
the ideal expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Zero-Code Error Drift
Zero-code error drift is a measure of the change in zero-code
error with a change in temperature. It is expressed in μV/°C.
Gain Error Drift
Gain error drift is a measure of the change in gain error with
changes in temperature. It is expressed in (ppm of full-scale
range)/°C.
Major Code Transition Glitch Energy
Major code transition glitch energy is the energy of the impulse
injected into the analog output when the code in the DAC register
changes state. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in
nV-s and is measured when the digital code is changed by 1 LSB
at the major carry transition (011 . . . 11 to 100 . . . 00 or 100 . . . 00
to 011 . . . 11).
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into
the analog output of the DAC from the digital input pins of the
device, but is measured when the DAC is not being written to. It
is specified in nV-s and is measured with a full-scale change on
the digital input pins, that is, from all 0s to all 1s and vice versa.

THEORY OF OPERATION
RESISTOR STRING
The resistor string section is shown in Figure 25. It is simply
a string of resistors, each with a value of R. The digital code
loaded to the DAC register determines at what node on the
string the voltage is tapped off to be fed into the output amplifier. The voltage is tapped off by closing one of the switches
connecting the string to the amplifier. Because it is a string
of resistors, it is guaranteed monotonic over all codes.

The architecture of the DAC channel consists of a resistor string
DAC followed by an output buffer amplifier. The voltage at the
VDD pin provides the reference voltage for the DAC. Figure 24
shows a block diagram of the DAC architecture. Since the input
coding to the DAC is straight binary, the ideal output voltage is
given by

The output buffer amplifier is capable of generating output voltages to within 1 mV from either rail, which gives an output range
of 0.001 V to VDD − 0.001 V. It is capable of driving a load of
2 kΩ to GND and VDD, in parallel with 500 pF to GND. The
source and sink capabilities of the output amplifier can be seen

The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 are single resistor-string DACs
fabricated on a CMOS process with resolutions of 8/10/12 bits,
respectively. Data is written via a 2-wire serial interface. The
devices operate from single supplies of 2.5 V to 5.5 V and the
output buffer amplifiers provide rail-to-rail output swing with
a slew rate of 0.7 V/μs. The power supply (VDD) acts as the
reference to the DAC. The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 have
three programmable power-down modes, in which the DAC
can be turned off completely with a high impedance output,
or the output can be pulled low by an on-chip resistor (see the
Power-Down Modes section).
The DAC register is filled with zeros and remains so until a
valid write sequence is made to the device. This is particularly
useful in applications where it is important to know the state
of the DAC output while the device is powering up.
Rev. B | Page 13 of 24
AD5301/AD5311/AD5321
SERIAL INTERFACE
SCL is high. In write mode, the master pulls the SDA line
high during the 10th clock pulse to establish a stop condition. In read mode, the master issues a no acknowledge for
the ninth clock pulse (that is, the SDA line remains high).
The master then brings the SDA line low before the 10th
clock pulse and then high during the 10th clock pulse to
establish a stop condition.
2-WIRE SERIAL BUS
The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 are controlled via an I2Ccompatible serial bus. The DACs are connected to this bus
as slave devices (no clock is generated by the AD5301/AD5311/
AD5321 DACs).
The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 has a 7-bit slave address. In
the case of the 6-lead device, the six MSBs are 000110 and the
LSB is determined by the state of the A0 pin. In the case of the
8-lead device, the five MSBs are 00011 and the two LSBs are
determined by the state of the A0 and A1 pins. A1 and A0
allow the user to use up to four of these DACs on one bus.
In the case of the AD5301/AD5311/AD5321, a write operation
contains two bytes whereas a read operation may contain one or
two bytes. See Figure 29 to Figure 34 for a graphical explanation
of the serial interface.
A repeated write function gives the user flexibility to update the
DAC output a number of times after addressing the part only
once. During the write cycle, each multiple of two data bytes
updates the DAC output. For example, after the DAC acknowledges its address byte, and receives two data bytes; the DAC
output updates after the two data bytes, if another two data
bytes are written to the DAC while it is still the addressed slave
device. These data bytes also cause an output update. A repeat
read of the DAC is also allowed.
The 2-wire serial bus protocol operates as follows:
The master initiates data transfer by establishing a start
condition, which is when a high-to-low transition on the
SDA line occurs while SCL is high. The following byte is
the address byte that consists of the 7-bit slave address
followed by an R/W bit (this bit determines whether data
is read from or written to the slave device).
The slave whose address corresponds to the transmitted
address responds by pulling the SDA line low during the
ninth clock pulse (this is termed the acknowledge bit). At
this stage, all other devices on the bus remain idle while the
selected device waits for data to be written to or read from
its serial register. If the R/W bit is high, the master reads
from the slave device. However, if the R/W bit is low, the
master writes to the slave device.
2.
Data is transmitted over the serial bus in sequences of nine
clock pulses (eight data bits followed by an acknowledge
bit). The transitions on the SDA line must occur during
the low period of SCL and remain stable during the high
period of SCL.
3.
When all data bits have been read or written, a stop condition is established by the master. A stop condition is
defined as a low-to-high transition on the SDA line while
INPUT SHIFT REGISTER
The input shift register is 16 bits wide. Figure 26, Figure 27,
and Figure 28 illustrate the contents of the input shift register
for each part. Data is loaded into the device as a 16-bit word
under the control of a serial clock input, SCL. The timing
diagram for this operation is shown in Figure 2. The 16-bit
word consists of four control bits followed by 8/10/12 bits of
data, depending on the device type. MSB (Bit 15) is loaded first.
The first two bits are don’t cares. The next two are control bits
that control the mode of operation of the device (normal mode
or any one of three power-down modes). See the Power-Down
Modes section for a complete description. The remaining bits
are left justified DAC data bits, starting with the MSB and
ending with the LSB.

POWER-DOWN MODES
The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 have very low power consumption, dissipating typically 0.36 mW with a 3 V supply and 0.75 mW
with a 5 V supply. Power consumption can be further reduced
when the DAC is not in use by putting it into one of three
power-down modes, which are selected by Bit 13 and Bit 12 (PD1
and PD0) of the control word. Table 6 shows how the state of
the bits corresponds to the mode of operation of the DAC.
output stage is also internally switched from the output of the
amplifier to a resistor network of known values. This has the
advantage that the output impedance of the part is known while
the part is in power-down mode and provides a defined input
condition for whatever is connected to the output of the DAC
amplifier. There are three different options. The output is connected internally to GND through a 1 kΩ resistor, a 100 kΩ
resistor, or it is left three-stated. Resistor tolerance = ±20%.
The output stage is illustrated in Figure 35.

Taking this pin low puts the DAC into three-state power-down

When both bits are set to 0, the DAC works normally with its
normal power consumption of 150 μA at 5 V, while for the three
power-down modes, the supply current falls to 200 nA at 5 V
(50 nA at 3 V). Not only does the supply current drop, but the

USING REF19x AS A POWER SUPPLY
Because the supply current required by the AD5301/AD5311/
AD5321 is extremely low, the user has an alternative option to
employ a REF195 voltage reference (for 5 V) or a REF193 voltage
reference (for 3 V) to supply the required voltage to the part
(see Figure 36).

The output voltage for any input code can be calculated as
Figure 36. REF195 as Power Supply to AD5301/AD5311/AD5321
VOUT = [(VDD × (D/2N) × R1 + R2)/R1) − VDD × (R2/R1)]
This is especially useful if the power supply is quite noisy or if
the system supply voltages are at some value other than 5 V or
3 V (for example, 15 V). The REF193/REF195 output a steady
supply voltage for the AD5301/AD5311/AD5321. If the low
dropout REF195 is used, it needs to supply a current of 150 μA
to the AD5301/AD5311/AD5321. This is with no load on the
output of the DAC. When the DAC output is loaded, the REF195
also needs to supply the current to the load.
The total current required (with a 2 kΩ load on the DAC output
and full scale loaded to the DAC) is
150 μA + (5 V/2 kΩ) = 2.65 mA
The load regulation of the REF195 is typically 2 ppm/mA,
which results in an error of 5.3 ppm (26.5 μV) for the 2.65 mA
current drawn from it. This corresponds to a 0.00136 LSB error.
BIPOLAR OPERATION USING THE AD5301/
AD5311/AD5321
The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 has been designed for singlesupply operation, but a bipolar output range is also possible
using the circuit in Figure 37. The circuit below gives an output
voltage range of ±5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the amplifier
output is achievable using an AD820 or an OP295 as the output
amplifier.
where:
D is the decimal equivalent of the code loaded to the DAC.
N is the DAC resolution.

VOUT = (10 × D/2N) − 5 V
MULTIPLE DEVICES ON ONE BUS
Figure 38 shows four AD5301 devices on the same serial bus.
Each has a different slave address since the state of their A0
and A1 pins is different. This allows each DAC to be written to
or read from independently. The master device output bus line
drivers are open-drain, pull-downs in a fully I2C-compatible
interface.
CMOS DRIVEN SCL AND SDA LINES
For single or multisupply systems where the minimum SCL
swing requirements allow it, a CMOS SCL driver may be used,
and the SCL pull-up resistor can be removed, making the SCL
bus line fully CMOS compatible. This reduces power consumption in both the SCL driver and receiver devices. The SDA line
remains open-drain, I2C compatible.
Further changes, in the SDA line driver, may be made to make
the system more CMOS compatible and save more power. As
the SDA line is bidirectional, it cannot be made fully CMOS
compatible. A switched pull-up resistor can be combined with
a CMOS device with an open-circuit (three-state) input such
that the CMOS SDA driver is enabled during write cycles and
I2C mode is enabled during shared cycles, that is, readback,
acknowledge bit cycles, start conditions, and stop conditions.

AD5301/AD5311/AD5321
a ceramic 0.1 μF capacitor provides a sufficient low impedance
path to ground at high frequencies. The power supply lines of
the AD5301/AD5311/AD5321 should use as large a trace as
possible to provide low impedance paths. A ground line routed
between the SDA and SCL lines helps reduce crosstalk between
them. This is not required on a multilayer board as there is a
ground plane layer, but separating the lines helps.
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful consideration of the power supply and ground return layout helps to
ensure the rated performance. The AD5301/AD5311/AD5321
should be decoupled to GND with 10 μF in parallel with a
0.1 μF capacitor, located as close to the package as possible.
The 10 μF capacitor should be the tantalum bead type, while
