■
■
■
The LTC2753 DACs use a bidirectional input/output parallel
interface that allows readback of any on-chip register. A
power-on reset circuit resets the DAC outputs to 0V when
power is initially applied. A logic low on the CLR pin asynchronously clears the DACs to 0V in any output range.
The parts are specified over commercial and industrial
temperature ranges.
APPLICATIONS
■
The LTC®2753 is a family of dual 12-, 14-, and 16-bit
multiplying parallel-input, current-output DACs. These
DACs operate from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply and are all
guaranteed monotonic over temperature. The LTC2753A-16
provides 16-bit performance (±1LSB INL and DNL) over
temperature without any adjustments. These SoftSpan™
DACs offer six output ranges—two unipolar and four
bipolar—that can be programmed through the parallel
interface, or pinstrapped for operation in a single range.

CLR Pulse Width Low
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: Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating
junction temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 3: Because of the proprietary SoftSpan switching architecture, the
measured resistance looking into each of the specified pins is constant for
all output ranges if the IOUT1X and IOUT2X pins are held at ground.
Note 4: R1 is measured from RIN to RCOM ; R2 is measured from REFA to
RCOM .
Note 5: Using LT1469 with CFEEDBACK = 15pF. A ±0.0015% settling time
of 1.7μs can be achieved by optimizing the time constant on an individual
basis. See Application Note 74, Component and Measurement Advances
Ensure 16-Bit DAC Settling Time.
Note 6: Measured at the major carry transition, 0V to 5V range. Output
amplifier: LT1469; CFB = 27pF.
Note 7. Full-scale transition; REF = 0V.
Note 8. REF = 6VRMS at 1kHz. 0V to 5V range. DAC code = FS. Output
amplifier = LT1469.
Note 9. Calculation from Vn = √4⎯ ⎯k⎯T⎯R⎯B, where k = 1.38E-23 J/°K
(Boltzmann constant), R = resistance (Ω), T = temperature (°K), and B =
bandwidth (Hz).
Note 10. Guaranteed by design. Not production tested.

LTC2753
OPERATION
Output Ranges
The LTC2753 is a dual current-output, parallel-input precision multiplying DAC with software-programmable output
ranges. SoftSpan provides two unipolar output ranges
(0V to 5V and 0V to 10V), and four bipolar ranges (±2.5V,
±5V, ±10V and –2.5V to 7.5V). These ranges are obtained
when an external precision 5V reference is used. When
a reference voltage of 2V is used, the SoftSpan ranges
become: 0V to 2V, 0V to 4V, ±1V, ±2V, ±4V and –1V to 3V.
The output ranges are linearly scaled for references other
than 2V and 5V.
Digital Section
The LTC2753 has 4 internal registers for each DAC, a total
of 8 registers (see Block Diagram). Each DAC channel has
two sets of double-buffered registers—one set for the data,
and one set for the span (output range) of the DAC. The
double-buffered feature provides the capability to simultaneously update the span and code, which allows smooth
voltage transitions when changing output ranges. It also
permits the simultaneous updating of multiple DACs.
Each set of double-buffered registers comprises an input
register and a DAC register. The input registers are holding
buffers—when data is loaded into an input register via a
write operation, the DAC outputs are not affected.
The contents of a DAC register, on the other hand, directly control the DAC output voltage or output range.
The contents of the DAC registers are changed by copying
the contents of an input register into its associated DAC
register via an update operation.
Loading the span input register is accomplished similarly,
holding the D/S pin high and bringing the WR pin low. The
span and data register structures are the same except for
the number of parallel bits—the span registers have 3 bits,
while the data registers have 12, 14, or 16.
To make both registers transparent for flowthrough
mode, tie WR low and UPD high. However, this defeats
the deglitcher operation and output glitch impulse may
increase. The deglitcher is activated on the rising edge
of the UPD pin.
The interface also allows the use of the input and DAC
registers in a master-slave, or edge-triggered, configuration. This mode of operation occurs when WR and UPD
are tied together and driven by a single clock signal. The
data bits are loaded into the input register on the falling
edge of the clock and then loaded into the DAC register
on the rising edge.
It is possible to control both data and span on one 16-bit
wide data bus by allowing span pins S2 to S0 to share
bus lines with the data LSBs (D2 to D0). No write or read
operation includes both span and data, so there cannot
be a conflict.
The asynchronous clear pin resets both DACs to 0V in any
output range. CLR resets all data registers, while leaving
the span registers undisturbed.

DAC A
Write and Update Operations
MSPAN
The data input register of the addressed DAC is loaded
directly from a 16-bit microprocessor bus by holding the
D/S pin low and pulsing the WR pin low (write operation).
The DAC register is loaded by pulsing the UPD pin high
(update operation), which copies the data held in the input
register into the DAC register. Note that updates always
include both data and span; but the DAC register values
will not change unless the input register values have previously been changed via a write operation.

LTC2753
OPERATION
These devices also have a power-on reset that initializes
both DACs to VOUT = 0V in any output range. The DACs
power up in the 0V-5V range if the part is in SoftSpan
configuration; for manual span (see Manual Span Configuration below), both DACs power up in the manually-chosen
range at the appropriate code.
Manual Span Configuration
Multiple output ranges are not needed in some applications.
To configure the LTC2753 for single-span operation, tie the
MSPAN pin to VDD and the D/S pin to GND. The desired
output range is then specified by the span I/O pins (S0,
S1 and S2) as usual, but the pins are programmed by tying directly to GND or VDD (see Figure 1 and Table 2). In
this configuration, both DAC channels will initialize to the
chosen output range at power-up, with VOUT = 0V.
When configured for manual span operation, span pin
readback is disabled.
Readback
The contents of any one of the 8 interface registers can
be read back from the I/O ports.
the D/S pin. The selected I/O port’s pins become logic
outputs during readback, while the unselected I/O port’s
pins remain high-impedance inputs.
With the DAC channel and I/O port selected, assert READ
high and select the desired input or DAC register using the
UPD pin. Note that UPD is a two function pin—the update
function is only available when READ is low. When READ
is high, the update function is disabled and the UPD pin
instead selects the input or DAC register for readback.
Table 1 shows the readback functions for the LTC2753.

The I/O pins are grouped into two ports: data and span. The
data I/O port comprises pins D0-D11, D0-D13 or D0-D15
(LTC2753-12, LTC2753-14 or LTC2753-16, respectively).
The span I/O port comprises pins S0, S1 and S2 for all
parts.
X = Don’t Care
Each DAC channel has a set of data registers that are
controlled and read back from the data I/O port; and a set
of span registers that are controlled and read back from
the span I/O port. The register structure is shown in the
Block Diagram.
The most common readback task is to check the contents
of an input register after writing to it, before updating the
new data to the DAC register. To do this, hold UPD low
and assert READ high. The contents of the selected port’s
input register are output to its I/O pins.
A readback operation is initiated by asserting READ to
logic high after selecting the desired DAC channel and I/O
port. The I/O pins, which are high-impedance digital inputs
when READ is low, selectively change to low-impedance
logic outputs during readback.
To read back the contents of a DAC register, hold UPD low
and assert READ high, then bring UPD high to select the
DAC register. The contents of the selected DAC register are
output by the selected port’s I/O pins. Note: if no update is
desired after the readback operation, UPD must be returned
low before bringing READ low; otherwise the UPD pin will
revert to its primary function and update the DAC.
Select the DAC channel with address pins A1 and A0, and
select the I/O port (data or span) to be read back with

gain error. Tables 4 and 5 can also be used to determine
the effects of op amp parameters on the LTC2753-14
and the LTC2753-12. However, the results obtained from
Tables 4 and 5 are in 16-bit LSBs. Divide these results
by 4 (LTC2753-14) and 16 (LTC2753-12) to obtain the
correct LSB sizing.
Because of the extremely high accuracy of the 16-bit
LTC2753-16, careful thought should be given to op amp
selection in order to achieve the exceptional performance
of which the part is capable. Fortunately, the sensitivity of
INL and DNL to op amp offset has been greatly reduced
compared to previous generations of multiplying DACs.
Tables 4 and 5 contain equations for evaluating the effects
of op amp parameters on the LTC2753’s accuracy when
Table 6 contains a partial list of LTC precision op amps
recommended for use with the LTC2753. The easy-to-use
design equations simplify the selection of op amps to meet
the system’s specified error budget. Select the amplifier
from Table 6 and insert the specified op amp parameters
in Table 5. Add up all the errors for each category to determine the effect the op amp has on the accuracy of the
part. Arithmetic summation gives an (unlikely) worst-case
effect. A root-sum-square (RMS) summation produces a
more realistic estimate.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Op amp offset will contribute mostly to output offset and
gain error, and has minimal effect on INL and DNL. For
example, for the LTC2753-16 with a 5V reference in 5V
unipolar mode, a 250μV op amp offset will cause a 3.3LSB
zero-scale error and a 3.3LSB gain error; but only 0.8LSB
of INL degradation and 0.2LSB of DNL degradation.
While not directly addressed by the simple equations in
Tables 4 and 5, temperature effects can be handled just as
easily for unipolar and bipolar applications. First, consult
an op amp’s data sheet to find the worst-case VOS and IB
over temperature. Then, plug these numbers in the VOS
and IB equations from Table 5 and calculate the temperature-induced effects.
For applications where fast settling time is important, Application Note 74, Component and Measurement Advances
Ensure 16-Bit DAC Settling Time, offers a thorough discussion of 16-bit DAC settling time and op amp selection.
Precision Voltage Reference Considerations
Much in the same way selecting an operational amplifier
for use with the LTC2753 is critical to the performance of
the system, selecting a precision voltage reference also
requires due diligence. The output voltage of the LTC2753
is directly affected by the voltage reference; thus, any
voltage reference error will appear as a DAC output voltage error.
There are three primary error sources to consider when
selecting a precision voltage reference for 16-bit applications: output voltage initial tolerance, output voltage
temperature coefficient and output voltage noise.
Initial reference output voltage tolerance, if uncorrected,
generates a full-scale error term. Choosing a reference
with low output voltage initial tolerance, like the LT1236
(±0.05%), minimizes the gain error caused by the reference;
however, a calibration sequence that corrects for system
zero- and full-scale error is always recommended.
A reference’s output voltage temperature coefficient affects not only the full-scale error, but can also affect the
circuit’s apparent INL and DNL performance. If a reference is chosen with a loose output voltage temperature
coefficient, then the DAC output voltage along its transfer
characteristic will be very dependent on ambient conditions.
Minimizing the error due to reference temperature coefficient can be achieved by choosing a precision reference
with a low output voltage temperature coefficient and/or
tightly controlling the ambient temperature of the circuit
to minimize temperature gradients.
As precision DAC applications move to 16-bit and higher
performance, reference output voltage noise may contribute a dominant share of the system’s noise floor. This
in turn can degrade system dynamic range and signal-tonoise ratio. Care should be exercised in selecting a voltage
reference with as low an output noise voltage as practical for the system resolution desired. Precision voltage
references, like the LT1236, produce low output noise in
the 0.1Hz to 10Hz region, well below the 16-bit LSB level
in 5V or 10V full-scale systems. However, as the circuit
bandwidths increase, filtering the output of the reference
may be required to minimize output noise.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Grounding
As with any high resolution converter, clean grounding is
important. A low impedance analog ground plane and star
grounding techniques should be used. IOUT2 must be tied
to the star ground with as low a resistance as possible.
When it is not possible to locate star ground close to
IOUT2, a low resistance trace should be used to route this
pin to star ground. This minimizes the voltage drop from
this pin to ground caused by the code dependent current
flowing to ground. When the resistance of this circuit
board trace becomes greater than 1Ω, a force/sense amplifier configuration should be used to drive this pin (see
Figure 2). This preserves the excellent accuracy (1LSB
INL and DNL) of the LTC2753-16.
