GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD5040 and the AD5060, members of the ADI nanoDAC
family, are low power, single 14-/16-bit buffered voltage-out
DACs that operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply. The
AD5040/AD5060 parts offer a relative accuracy specification
of ±1 LSB and operation are guaranteed monotonic with a
±1 LSB DNL specification. The parts use a versatile 3-wire serial
interface that operates at clock rates up to 30 MHz and is
compatible with standard SPI®, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and
DSP interface standards. The reference for both the AD5040
and AD5060 is supplied from an external VREF pin. A reference
buffer is also provided on-chip. The AD5060 incorporates a
power-on reset circuit that ensures the DAC output powers up
to midscale or zero scale and remains there until a valid write
takes place to the device. The AD5040 and the AD5060 both
contain a power-down feature that reduces the current consumption of the device to typically 330 nA at 5 V and provides
software-selectable output loads while in power-down mode.
The parts are put into power-down mode over the serial
interface. Total unadjusted error for the parts is <2 mV.
Both parts exhibit very low glitch on power-up.

ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.

Description
Serial Data Input. These parts have a 16-/24-bit shift register. Data is clocked into the register on the falling edge of
the serial clock input.
Power Supply Input. These parts can be operated from 2.7 V to 5.5 V and VDD should be decoupled to GND.
Reference Voltage Input.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC.
Ground Reference Point for Analog Circuitry.
Ground Input to the DAC Core.
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 is transferred in on the falling edges of the following clocks.
The DAC is updated following the 16th/24th 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 DAC.
Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input. Data can
be transferred at rates up to 30 MHz.

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 endpoints of the DAC transfer
function. A typical AD5060 INL vs. code plot is shown in
Figure 4.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity 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. This DAC is guaranteed monotonic by
design. A typical AD5060 DNL vs. code plot is shown in Figure 5.
Offset Error
Offset error is a measure of the output error when zero code
(0x0000) is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the output
should be 0 V. The zero-code error is always positive in the
AD5040/AD5060 because the output of the DAC cannot go
below 0 V. This is due to a combination of the offset errors in
the DAC and output amplifier. Zero-code error is expressed
in mV.
Full-Scale Error
Full-scale error is a measure of the output error when full-scale
code (0xFFFF AD5060, 0x3FFF AD5040) is loaded to the DAC
register. Ideally, the output should be VDD − 1 LSB. Full-scale
error is expressed in percent of full-scale range.
Total Unadjusted Error (TUE)
Total unadjusted error is a measure of the output error taking
all the various errors into account. A typical AD5060 TUE vs.
code plot is shown in Figure 6.
Offset Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in zero-code error with a
change in temperature. It is expressed in μV/°C.
Gain Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in gain error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in (ppm of full-scale range)/°C.
Digital-to-Analog Glitch Impulse
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 nV-s
and is measured when the digital input code is changed by
1 LSB at the worst case code 53786; see Figure 23 and Figure 24.
The expanded view in Figure 23 shows the glitch generated
following completion of the calibration routine; Figure 24
zooms in on this glitch.
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into
the analog output of the DAC from the digital inputs of the
DAC, but 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 0s to all 1s, and vice versa.
Gain Error
This is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the deviation in slope of the DAC transfer characteristic from ideal,
expressed as a percent of the full-scale range.

AD5040/AD5060
THEORY OF OPERATION
SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5040/AD5060 are single 14-/16-bit, serial input, voltage
output DACs. The parts operate from supply voltages of 2.7 V
to 5.5 V. Data is written to the AD5060 in a 24-bit word format,
and to the AD5040 in a 16-bit word format, via a 3-wire serial
interface.
The AD5060/AD5040 have a 3-wire serial interface (SYNC,
SCLK, and DIN), which is compatible with SPI, QSPI, and
MICROWIRE interface standards, as well as most DSPs.
Figure 2 shows a timing diagram of a typical AD5060 write
sequence.
Both the AD5040 and AD5060 incorporate a power-on reset
circuit that ensures the DAC output powers up to a known output state (midscale or zero-scale, see the Ordering Guide). The
devices also have a software power-down mode that reduces the
typical current consumption to less than 1 μa.
The write sequence begins by bringing the SYNC line low. For
the AD5060, data from the DIN line is clocked into the 24-bit
shift register on the falling edge of SCLK. The serial clock
frequency can be as high as 30 MHz, making these parts
compatible with high speed DSPs. On the 24th falling clock
edge, the last data bit is clocked in and the programmed
function is executed (that is, a change in the DAC output or a
change in the mode of operation).
DAC ARCHITECTURE
The DAC architecture of the AD5060 consists of two matched
DAC sections. A simplified circuit diagram is shown in
Figure 40. The 4 MSBs of the 16-bit data-word are decoded to
drive 15 switches, E1 to E15. Each of these switches connects
1 of 15 matched resistors to either DACGND or the VREF buffer
output. The remaining 12 bits of the data-word drive switches
S0 to S11 of a 12-bit voltage mode R-2R ladder network.
At this stage, the SYNC line can be kept low or be brought
high. In either case, it must be brought high for a minimum of
12 ns before the next write sequence so that a falling edge of
SYNC can initiate the next write sequence. Because the SYNC
buffer draws more current when VIH = 1.8 V than it does when
VIH = 0.8 V, SYNC should be idled low between write sequences
for an even lower power operation of the part. As previously
indicated, however, it must be brought high again just before
the next write sequence. The AD5040 requires 16 clock periods
to update the input shift register. On the 16th falling clock edge,
the last data bit is clocked in and the programmed function is
executed (that is, a change in the DAC output or a change in the
mode of operation).

REFERENCE BUFFER
Input Shift Register
The AD5040 andAD5060 operate with an external reference.
The reference input (VREF) has an input range of 2 V to
VDD − 50 mV. This input voltage is then used to provide a
buffered reference for the DAC core.
The AD5060 input shift register is 24 bits wide; see Figure 41.
PD1 and PD0 are control bits that control the operating mode
of the part—normal mode or any one of three power-down
modes (see the Power-Down Modes section for more detail).
The next 16 bits are the data bits. These are transferred to the
DAC register on the 24th falling edge of SCLK.

AD5040/AD5060
The AD5040 input shift register is 16 bits wide; see Figure 42.
PD1 and PD0 are control bits that control the operating mode
of the part—normal mode or any one of two power-down
modes (see Power-Down Modes section for more detail). The
next 14 bits are the data bits. These are transferred to the DAC
register on the 16th falling edge of SCLK.
POWER-ON RESET
The AD5040 and AD5060 both contain a power-on reset
circuit that controls the output voltage during power-up. The
DAC register is filled with the zero-scale code or midscale code
and the output voltage is set to zero scale or midscale (see the
Ordering Guide for more details on the reset model). It remains
there until a valid write sequence is made to the DAC. This is
useful in applications where it is important to know the output
state of the DAC while it is in the process of powering up.
SYNC Interrupt
In a normal write sequence for the AD5060, the SYNC line is
kept low for at least 24 falling edges of SCLK, and the DAC is
updated on the 24th falling edge. However, if SYNC is brought
high before the 24th falling edge, the write sequence is
interrupted. The shift register is reset and the write sequence is
considered invalid. Neither an update of the DAC register
contents nor a change in the operating mode occurs; see Figure
43. In a normal write sequence for the AD5040, 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, if SYNC is brought
high before the 16th falling edge, the write sequence is
interrupted. The shift register is reset and the write sequence is
considered invalid. Neither an update of the DAC register
contents nor a change in the operating mode occurs.
SOFTWARE RESET
The AD5060 device can be put into software reset by setting all
bits in the DAC register to 1; this includes writing 1s to Bit D23
and Bit D16, which is not the normal mode of operation. For
the AD5040 this includes writing 1s to Bit D15 and Bit D14,
which is also not the normal mode of operation. Note that the
SYNC interrupt command cannot be performed if a software
reset command is started in the AD5040 or AD5060.

AD5040/AD5060 to 68HC11/68L11 Interface
In both the AD5060 and the AD5040, when the two most
significant bits are set to 0, the part has normal power
consumption. However, for the three power-down modes of the
AD5060 and the two power down modes of the AD5040, the
supply current falls to less than 1μA at 5 V (65 nA at 3 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. This is advantageous because the
output impedance of the part is known while the part is in
power-down mode. The output is connected internally to GND
through a 1 kΩ resistor (AD5060 only) or a 100 kΩ resistor, or
it is left open-circuited (three-stated). The output stage is
illustrated in Figure 44.

SYNC

BUFFER
Figure 46 shows a serial interface between the AD5040/
AD5060 and the 68HC11/68L11 microcontroller. SCK of the
68HC11/68L11 drives the SCLK pin of the AD5040/AD5060,
while the MOSI output drives the serial data line of the DAC.
The SYNC signal is derived from a port line (PC7). The setup
conditions for correct operation of this interface require that the
68HC11/68L11 be configured so that its CPOL bit is 0 and its
CPHA bit is 1. When data is being transmitted to the DAC, the
SYNC line is taken low (PC7). When the 68HC11/68L11 is
configured where its CPOL bit is 0 and its CPHA bit is 1, data
appearing on the MOSI output is valid on the falling edge of
SCK. Serial data from the 68HC11/68L11 is transmitted in 8-bit
bytes with only 8 falling clock edges occurring in the transmit
cycle. Data is transmitted MSB first. In order to load data to the
AD5040/AD5060, PC7 is left 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.

The bias generator, the DAC core, and other associated linear
circuitry are all shut down when power-down mode is
activated. However, the contents of the DAC register are
unaffected when in power-down. The time to exit power-down
is typically 2.5 μs for VDD = 5 V, and 5 μs for VDD = 3 V;

Figure 47 shows a serial interface between the AD5040/

ADSP-BF53x processor family incorporates two dual-channel
synchronous serial ports, SPORT1 and SPORT0, for serial and
multiprocessor communications. Using SPORT0 to connect to
the AD5040/AD5060, the setup for the interface is: DT0PRI
drives the SDIN pin of the AD5040/AD5060, while TSCLK0
drives the SCLK of the part; the SYNC is driven from TFS0.
Figure 49 shows an interface between the AD5040/AD5060 and

Figure 48 shows a serial interface between the AD5060/

for the interface is: TxD of the 80C51/80L51 drives SCLK of
the AD5040/AD5060 while RxD drives the serial data line
of the part. The SYNC signal is again derived from a bitprogrammable pin on the port. In this case, Port Line P3.3 is
used. When data is to be transmitted to the AD5040, P3.3 is
taken low. The 80C51/80L51 transmits data only in 8-bit bytes;
thus only 8 falling clock edges occur in the transmit cycle. To
load data to the DAC, P3.3 is left 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 80C51/80L51 outputs the serial data in a
format which has the LSB first. The AD5040/AD5060 require
data to be received with the MSB as the first bit. The
80C51/80L51 transmit routine should take this into account.

examples of recommended precision references for use as a

CHOOSING A REFERENCE FOR THE AD5040/
AD5060
To achieve the optimum performance from the AD5040/
AD5060, carefully choose a precision voltage reference. The
AD5040/AD5060 have just one reference input, VREF. The
voltage on the reference input is used to supply the positive
input to the DAC. Therefore, any error in the reference is
reflected in the DAC.
Table 8. Precision References for the AD5040/AD5060
There are four possible sources of error to consider when
choosing a voltage reference for high accuracy applications:
initial accuracy, ppm drift, long-term drift, and output voltage
noise. Initial accuracy on the output voltage of the DAC leads
to a full-scale error in the DAC. To minimize these errors, a
reference with high initial accuracy is preferred. Also, choosing
a reference with an output trim adjustment, such as an ADR43x
device, allows a system designer to trim out system errors by
setting a reference voltage to a voltage other than the nominal.
The trim adjustment can also be used at temperature to trim
out any errors.
Because the supply current required by the AD5040/AD5060 is
extremely low, the parts are ideal for low supply applications.
The ADR395 voltage reference is recommended. This requires
less than 100 μA of quiescent current and can, therefore, drive
multiple DACs in one system, if required. It also provides very
good noise performance at 8 μV p-p in the 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz range.

BIPOLAR OPERATION USING THE AD5040/
AD5060
The AD5040/AD5060 have been designed for single-supply
operation, but a bipolar output range is also possible using the
circuit in Figure 51. The circuit shown yields an output voltage
range of ±5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the amplifier output is
achievable using an AD8675/AD820/AD8032 or an OP196/
OP295.
The output voltage for any input code can be calculated as

Long-term drift is a measure of how much the reference drifts
over time. A reference with a tight long-term drift specification
ensures that the overall solution remains relatively stable during
its entire lifetime. The temperature coefficient of a reference
output voltage affects INL, DNL, and TUE. A reference with a
tight temperature coefficient specification should be chosen to
reduce the temperature dependence of the DAC output voltage
on ambient conditions.
Using the AD5060, this is an output voltage range of ±5 V
with 0x0000 corresponding to a −5 V output and 0xFFFF
corresponding to a +5 V output .

In high accuracy applications, which have a relatively low noise
budget, reference output voltage noise needs to be considered. It
is important to choose a reference with as low an output noise
voltage as practical for the system noise resolution required.

USING THE AD5040/AD5060 WITH A
GALVANICALLY ISOLATED INTERFACE CHIP
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING AND GROUNDING
In process control applications in industrial environments, it is
often necessary to use a galvanically isolated interface to protect
and isolate the controlling circuitry from any hazardous
common-mode voltages that can occur in the area where the
DAC is functioning. iCoupler® provides isolation in excess of
2.5 kV. Because the AD5040/AD5060 use a 3-wire serial logic
interface, the ADuM130x family provides an ideal digital
solution for the DAC interface.
When accuracy is important in a circuit, it is helpful to carefully
consider the power supply and ground return layout on the
board. The printed circuit board containing the AD5040/
AD5060 should have separate analog and digital sections, each
having its own area of the board. If the AD5040/AD5060 are in
a system where other devices require an AGND-to-DGND
connection, the connection should be made at one point only.
This ground point should be as close as possible to the
AD5040/AD5060.
The ADuM130x isolators provide three independent isolation
channels in a variety of channel configurations and data rates.
They operate across the full range from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, providing
compatibility with lower voltage systems as well as enabling a
voltage translation functionality across the isolation barrier.
Figure 52 shows a typical galvanically isolated configuration
using the AD5040/AD5060. The power supply to the part
also needs to be isolated; this is accomplished by using a
transformer. On the DAC side of the transformer, a 5 V
regulator provides the 5 V supply required for the
AD5040/AD5060.

The power supply line itself should have as large a trace as
possible to provide a low impedance path and reduce glitch
effects on the supply line. Clocks and other fast switching
digital signals should be shielded from other parts of the board
by a digital ground. Avoid crossover of digital and analog
signals, if possible. When traces cross on opposite sides of the
board, ensure that they run at right angles to each other to
reduce feedthrough effects on the board. The best board layout
technique is the microstrip technique where the component
side of the board is dedicated to the ground plane only, and the
signal traces are placed on the solder side. However, this is not
always possible with a two-layer board.
04767-038
SCLK
The power supply to the AD5040/AD5060 should be bypassed
with 10 μF and 0.1 μF capacitors. The capacitors should be
physically as close as possible to the device with the 0.1 μF
capacitor ideally right up against the device. The 10 μF
capacitors are the tantalum bead type. It is important that the
0.1 μF capacitor has low effective series resistance (ESR) and
effective series inductance (ESI), as do common ceramic types
of capacitors. This 0.1 μF capacitor provides a low impedance
path to ground for high frequencies caused by transient
currents due to internal logic switching.
