GENERAL DESCRIPTION
14-BIT DAC
VREFS 5
These DACs provide 14-bit performance without any adjustments. The DAC output is unbuffered, which reduces power
consumption and offset errors contributed by an output buffer.
With an external op amp, the AD5552 can be operated in
bipolar mode generating a ±VREF output swing. The AD5552
also includes Kelvin sense connections for the reference and
analog ground pins to reduce layout sensitivity. For higher
precision applications, refer to 16-bit DACs AD5541, AD5542,
and AD5544.
The AD5551/AD5552 utilize a versatile 3-wire interface that is
compatible with SPI, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and DSP interface
standards. The AD5551 and AD5552 are available in 8-lead and
14-lead SOIC packages.

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 INL vs. code plot can be seen in Figure 6.
Differential Nonlinearity
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. A typical DNL vs. code plot can be seen
in Figure 9.
Gain Error
Gain error is the difference between the actual and ideal analog
output range, expressed as a percent of the full-scale range. It
is the deviation in slope of the DAC transfer characteristic
from ideal.
Gain Error Temperature Coefficient
This is a measure of the change in gain error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in ppm/°C.
Zero-Code Error
Zero code error is a measure of the output error when zero code
is loaded to the DAC register.
Zero-Code Temperature Coefficient
This is a measure of the change in zero code error with a change
in temperature. It is expressed in mV/°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-sec
and is measured when the digital input code is changed by
1 LSB at the major carry transition. A plot of the glitch impulse
is shown in Figure 19.
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. CS is
held high, while the CLK and DIN signals are toggled. It is
specified in nV-sec and is measured with a full-scale code change
on the data bus, that is, from all 0s to all 1s and vice versa. A
typical plot of digital feedthrough is shown in Figure 18.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio
This specification indicates how the output of the DAC is
affected by changes in the power supply voltage. Power-supply
rejection ratio is quoted in terms of % change in output per %
change in VDD for full-scale output of the DAC. VDD is varied
by ±10%.
Reference Feedthrough
This is a measure of the feedthrough from the VREF input to the
DAC output when the DAC is loaded with all 0s. A 100 kHz,
1 V p-p is applied to VREF. Reference feedthrough is expressed
in mV p-p.

AD5551/AD5552
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD5551/AD5552 are single, 14-bit, serial input, voltage
output DACs. They operate from a single supply ranging from
2.7 V to 5.5 V and consume typically 125 μA with a supply of
5 V. Data is written to these devices in a 14-bit word format, via
a 3-or 4-wire serial interface. To ensure a known power-up
state, these parts were designed with a power-on reset function.
In unipolar mode, the output is reset to 0 V, while in bipolar
mode, the AD5552 output is set to −VREF. Kelvin sense
connections for the reference and analog ground are included
on the AD5552.
DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG SECTION
The DAC architecture consists of two matched DAC sections.
A simplified circuit diagram is shown in Figure 22. The DAC
architecture of the AD5551/AD5552 is segmented. The four
MSBs of the 14-bit data word are decoded to drive 15 switches,
E1 to E15. Each of these switches connects one of 15 matched
resistors to either AGND or VREF. The remaining 10 bits of the
data word drive switches S0 to S9 of a 10-bit voltage mode R-2R
ladder network.

With this type of DAC configuration, the output impedance
is independent of code, while the input impedance seen by
the reference is heavily code dependent. The output voltage is
dependent on the reference voltage as shown in the following
equation:
VOUT =
The AD5552 has an LDAC function that allows the DAC latch
to be updated asynchronously by bringing LDAC low after CS
goes high. LDAC should be maintained high while data is
written to the shift register. Alternatively, LDAC may be tied
permanently low to update the DAC synchronously. With
LDAC tied permanently low, the rising edge of CS loads
the data to the DAC.
These DACs are capable of driving unbuffered loads of 60 kΩ.
Unbuffered operation results in low-supply current, typically
300 μA, and a low-offset error. The AD5551 provides a unipolar
output swing ranging from 0 V to VREF. The AD5552 can be configured to output both unipolar and bipolar voltages. Figure 23
shows a typical unipolar output voltage circuit. The code table
for this mode of operation is shown in Table 6.

The AD5551/AD5552 are controlled by a versatile 3-wire serial
interface, which operates at clock rates up to 25 MHz and is
compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP interface
standards. The timing diagram can be seen in Figure 3. Input
data is framed by the chip select input, CS. After a high-to-low
transition on CS, data is shifted synchronously and latched into
the input register on the rising edge of the serial clock, SCLK.
Data is loaded MSB first in 14-bit words. After 14 data bits
have been loaded into the serial input register, a low-to-high
transition on CS transfers the contents of the shift register to
the DAC. Data can only be loaded to the part while CS is low.

OUTPUT AMPLIFIER SELECTION
With the aid of an external op amp, the AD5552 may be configured to provide a bipolar voltage output. A typical circuit of
such operation is shown in Figure 24. The matched bipolar
offset resistors RFB and RINV are connected to an external op amp
to achieve this bipolar output swing where RFB = RINV = 28 kΩ.
Table 7 shows the transfer function for this output operating
mode. Also provided on the AD5552 are a set of Kelvin
connections to the analog ground inputs.

For bipolar mode, use a precision amplifier, supplied from a
dual power supply. This provides the ±VREF output. In a singlesupply application, selection of a suitable op amp may be more
difficult as the output swing of the amplifier does not usually
include the negative rail, in this case AGND. This can result in
some degradation of the specified performance unless the
application does not use codes near zero.
The selected op amp needs to have a very low-offset voltage,
(the DAC LSB is 152 μV with a 2.5 V reference), to eliminate
the need for output offset trims. Input bias current should also
be very low as the bias current multiplied by the DAC output
impedance (approximately 6K) adds to the zero-code error.
Rail-to-rail input and output performance is required. For fast
settling, the slew rate of the op amp should not impede the
settling time of the DAC. Output impedance of the DAC is
constant and code-independent, but to minimize gain errors,
the input impedance of the output amplifier should be as high
as possible. The amplifier should also have a 3 dB bandwidth of
1 MHz or greater. The amplifier adds another time constant to
the system, therefore increasing the settling time of the output.
A higher 3 dB amplifier bandwidth results in a faster effective
settling time of the combined DAC and amplifier.

REFERENCE AND GROUND
POWER-ON RESET
As the input impedance is code-dependent, the reference pin
should be driven from a low-impedance source. The AD5551/
AD5552 operate with a voltage reference ranging from 2 V to
VDD. Although DAC’s full-scale output voltage is determined by
the reference, references below 2 V results in reduced accuracy.
Table 6 and Table 7 outline the analog output voltage for
particular digital codes. For optimum performance, Kelvin
sense connections are provided on the AD5552.
These parts have a power-on reset function to ensure the output
is at a known state upon power-up. After power-up, the DAC
register contains all zeros, until data is loaded from the serial
register. However, the serial register is not cleared on power-up,
so its contents are undefined. When loading data initially to the
DAC, 14 bits or more should be loaded to prevent erroneous
data appearing on the output. If more than 14 bits are loaded,
only the last 14 are kept, and if fewer than 14 are loaded, bits
remain from the previous word. If the AD5551/AD5552 needs
to be interfaced with data shorter than 14 bits, the data should
be padded with zeros at the LSBs.
If the application does not require separate force and sense
lines, they should be tied together close to the package to
minimize voltage drops between the package leads and the
internal die. ADR291 and ADR293 are suitable references
for this product.
POWER SUPPLY AND REFERENCE BYPASSING
For accurate high-resolution performance, it is recommended
that the reference and supply pins be bypassed with a 10 μF
tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor.

ADSP-21xx TO AD5551/AD5552 INTERFACE
Figure 25 shows a serial interface between the AD5551/AD5552
and the ADSP-21xx. The ADSP-21xx should be set to operate in
the SPORT (serial port) transmit alternate framing mode. The
ADSP-21xx is programmed through the SPORT control register
and should be configured as follows: internal clock operation,
active low framing, 16-bit word length. The first 2 bits are don’t
care as AD5551/AD5552 keeps the last 14 bits. Transmission is
initiated by writing a word to the Tx register after the SPORT
has been enabled. Because of the edges-triggered difference, an
inverter is required at the SCLKs between the DSP and the DAC.

01943-028
Microprocessor interfacing to the AD5551/AD5552 is via a
serial bus that uses standard protocol compatible with DSP
processors and microcontrollers. The communications channel
requires a 3-wire interface consisting of a clock signal, a data
signal and a synchronization signal. The AD5551/AD5552
require a 14-bit data word with data valid on the rising edge of
SCLK. The DAC update may be done automatically when all
the data is clocked in or it may be done under control of LDAC
(AD5552 only).
Figure 26. 68HC11/68L11 to AD5551/AD5552 Interface
The 80C51/80L51 provides the LSB first, while the AD5551/
AD5552 expect the MSB of the 14-bit word first. Take care to
ensure that the transmit routine takes this into account. Usually
it can be done through software by shifting out and accumulating the bits in the correct order before inputting to the DAC.
Also, 80C51 outputs 2 byte words/16 bits data, thus the first
two bits, after rearrangement, should be don’t care as they are
dropped from the 14-bit word of the DAC.
When data is to be transmitted to the DAC, P3.3 is taken low.
Data on RxD is valid on the falling edge of TxD, so the clock must
be inverted as the DAC clocks data into the input shift register
on the rising edge of the serial clock. The 80C51/80L51 transmits
its data in 8-bit bytes with only eight falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. As the DAC requires a 14-bit word,
P3.3 (or any one of the other programmable bits) is the CS
input signal to the DAC, so P3.3 should be brought low at the
beginning of the 16-bit write cycle 2 × 8 bit words and held low
until the 16-bit 2 × 8 cycle is completed. After that, P3.3 is
brought high again and the new data loads to the DAC. Again,
the first two bits, after rearranging, should be don’t care. LDAC
on the AD5552 may also be controlled by the 80C51/80L51
serial port output by using another bit programmable pin, P3.4.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OPTOCOUPLER INTERFACE
DECODING MULTIPLE AD5551/AD5552S
The digital inputs of the AD5551/AD5552 are Schmitttriggered, so they can accept slow transitions on the digital
input lines. This makes these parts ideal for industrial applications where it may be necessary that the DAC is isolated from
the controller via optocouplers. Figure 29 illustrates such an
interface.
The CS pin of the AD5551/AD5552 can be used to select one of
a number of DACs. All devices receive the same serial clock and
serial data, but only one device receives the CS signal at any one
time. The DAC addressed is determined by the decoder. There
is some digital feedthrough from the digital input lines. Using a
burst clock minimizes the effects of digital feedthrough on the
analog signal channels. Figure 30 shows a typical circuit.
