The LTC®2654 is a family of quad 16-/12-bit rail-to-rail
DACs with integrated 10ppm/°C maximum reference . The
DACs have built-in high performance, rail-to-rail, output
buffers and are guaranteed monotonic. The LTC2654-L
has a full-scale output of 2.5V with the integrated reference and operates from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply.
The LTC2654-H has a full-scale output of 4.096V with
the integrated reference 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 2 times the
external reference voltage.
These DACs communicate via a SPI/MICROWIRE™ compatible 4-wire serial interface which operates at clock rates
up to 50MHz. The LTC2654 incorporates a power-on reset
circuit that is controlled by the PORSEL pin. If PORSEL
is tied to GND the DACs reset to zero-scale. If PORSEL is
tied to VCC, the DACs reset to mid-scale.

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 with respect to GND.
Note 3: Linearity and monotonicity are defined from code kL to code 2N–1,
where N is the resolution and kL is the lower end code for which no output
limiting occurs. For VREF = 2.5V and N = 16, kL = 128 and linearity is
defined from code 128 to code 65535. For VREF = 2.5V and N = 12, kL = 8
and linearity is defined from code 8 to code 4,095.
Note 4: Inferred from measurement at code 128 (LTC2654-16), or code 8
(LTC2654-12).
Note 5: DC Crosstalk is measured with VCC = 5V and using internal
reference, with the measured DAC at mid-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: Temperature coefficient is calculated by dividing the maximum
change in output voltage by the specified temperature range. Maximum
temperature coefficient is guaranteed for C-grade only.
Note 8: Digital inputs at 0V or VCC.
Note 9: Guaranteed by design and not production tested.
Note 10: Internal Reference mode. DAC is stepped ¼ scale to ¾ scale and
¾ scale to ¼ scale. Load is 2kΩ in parallel with 200pF to GND.
Note 11: VCC = 5V, Internal Reference mode. DAC is stepped ±1 LSB
between half-scale and half-scale - 1. Load is 2kΩ in parallel with 200pF
to GND.
Note 12: DAC to DAC Crosstalk is the glitch that appears at the output
of one DAC due to a full-scale change at the output of another DAC. It is
measured with VCC = 5V and using internal reference, with the measured
DAC at mid-scale. CREFIN/OUT = No Load.
Note 13: Gain error specification may be degraded for reference input
voltages less than 1V. See Gain Error vs Reference Input Voltage curve in
the Typical Performance Characteristics section.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(QFN/SSOP)
VOUTA to VOUTD (Pins 1, 3, 13, 14/Pins 2,4,13,14): DAC
Analog Voltage Outputs. The output range is 0V to 2 times
the voltage at the REFIN/OUT pin.
REFCOMP (Pin 2/Pin 3): Internal Reference Compensation pin. For low noise and reference stability, tie a 0.1μF
capacitor to GND. Connecting this pin to GND allows the
use of external reference at start-up.
REFIN/OUT (Pin 4/Pin 5): Reference Input/Output. This
pin acts as the internal reference output in internal reference mode and acts as the reference input pin in external
reference mode. When acting as an output the nominal
voltage at this pin is 1.25V for -L options and 2.048V
for -H options. For low noise and reference stability tie
a capacitor to GND. Capacitor value must be ≤CREFCOMP.
In external reference mode, the allowable reference input
voltage range is 0.5V to VCC /2.
LDAC (Pin 5/Pin 6): Asynchronous DAC Update Pin. If
CS/LD is high, a falling edge on LDAC immediately updates
the DAC register with the contents of the input register
(similar to a software update). If CS/LD is low when LDAC
goes low, the DAC register is updated after CS/LD returns
high. A low on the LDAC pin powers up the DAC outputs.
All the software power-down commands are ignored if
LDAC is low when CS/LD goes high.
CS/LD (Pin 6/Pin 7): Serial Interface Chip Select/Load
Input. When CS/LD is low, SCK is enabled for shifting
data on SDI into the register. When CS/LD is taken high,
SCK is disabled and the specified command (see Table 1)
is executed.
SCK (Pin 7/Pin 8): Serial Interface Clock Input. CMOS
and TTL compatible.
SDI (Pin 9/Pin 9): Serial Interface Data Input. Data is applied to SDI for transfer to the device at the rising edge of
SCK (Pin 10). The LTC2654 accepts input word lengths of
either 24 or 32 bits. See Figures 2a and 2b.
SDO (Pin 10/Pin 10): Serial Interface Data Output. This pin
is used for daisy-chain operation. The serial output of the
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
continuously driven and does not go high impedance when
CS/LD is taken active high.
CLR (Pin 11/Pin 11): Asynchronous Clear Input. A logic
low at this level-triggered input clears all registers and
causes the DAC voltage outputs to drop to 0V if PORSEL
pin is tied to GND. If the PORSEL pin is tied to VCC, a logic
low at CLR sets all registers to mid-scale code and causes
the DAC voltage outputs to go to mid-scale.
PORSEL (Pin 12/Pin 12): Power-On-Reset Select Pin. If
tied to GND, the DACs reset to zero-scale. If tied to VCC,
the DACs reset to mid-scale.
VCC (Pin 18/Pin 15): Supply Voltage Input. For -L options, 2.7V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.5V, and for -H options, 4.5V ≤ VCC
≤ 5.5V. Should be bypassed by a 0.1μF low ESR ceramic
capacitor to GND.
GND (Pin 19, Exposed Pad Pin 21/Pin 16): Ground.
Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB Ground.
REFLO (Pin 20/Pin 1): Reference Low Pin. The voltage at
this pin sets the zero-scale voltage of all DACs. This pin
should be tied to GND.
DNC (Pins 8, 15, 16, 17/NA): Do not connect these pins.

LTC2654
OPERATION
The LTC2654 is a family of quad voltage output DACs in
20-lead 4mm × 4mm QFN and in 16-lead narrow SSOP
packages. Each DAC can operate rail-to-rail in external
reference mode, or with its full-scale voltage set by an
integrated reference. Four combinations of accuracy (16bit and 12-bit), and full-scale voltage (2.5V or 4.096V)
are available. The LTC2654 is controlled using a 4-wire
SPI/MICROWIRE compatible interface.
Power-On Reset
The LTC2654-L/LTC2654-H clear the output to zero-scale
if PORSEL pin is tied to GND, 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 LTC2654 contains circuitry to reduce the power-on glitch. The analog
outputs typically rise less than 10mV above zero-scale
during power-on if the power supply is ramped to 5V in
1ms or more. In general, the glitch amplitude decreases
as the power supply ramp time is increased. See PowerOn-Reset Glitch in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section.
Alternatively, if PORSEL pin is tied to VCC (Pin 18/Pin 15),
The LTC2654-L/LTC2654-H set the output to mid-scale
when power is first applied.
Power Supply Sequencing and Start-Up
For LTC2654 family of parts, the internal reference is
powered-up at start-up by default. If an external reference
is to be used, the REFCOMP pin (Pin 2/Pin 3) must be
hardwired to GND. Having REFCOMP hardwired to GND
at power up, will cause the REFIN/OUT pin to become
high-impedance and will allow for the use of an external
reference at start-up. However in this configuration, internal
reference will still be ON, even though it is disconnected
from the REFIN/OUT pin and it will draw supply current. In
order to use external reference after power-up, the command Select External Reference (0111b) should be used
to turn the internal reference off (See Table 1).
The voltage at REFIN/OUT (Pin 4/Pin 5) should be kept
within the range –0.3V ≤ REFIN/OUT ≤ VCC + 0.3V (see
Absolute Maximum Ratings). Particular care should be
taken to observe these limits during power supply turn-on
and turn-off sequences, when the voltage at VCC (Pin 18/
Pin 15) is in transition.
Transfer Function
The digital-to-analog transfer function is
⎛ k ⎞
VOUT(IDEAL) = ⎜ N ⎟ • 2 • ⎡⎣ VREF − VREFLO ⎤⎦ + VREFLO
⎝2 ⎠
where k is the decimal equivalent of the binary DAC input
code, N is the resolution of the DAC, and VREF is the voltage at the REFIN/OUT Pin. The resulting DAC output span
is 0V to 2•VREF, as it is necessary to tie REFLO to GND.
VREF is nominally 1.25V for LTC2654-L and 2.048V for
LTC2654-H, in Internal Reference Mode.

LTC2654
OPERATION
Serial Interface
Daisy-Chain Operation
The CS/LD input is level triggered. When this input is taken
low, it acts as a chip-select signal, powering on the SDI
and SCK buffers and enabling 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; followed by
the 4-bit DAC address, A3-A0; and finally the 16-bit data
word. For the LTC2654-16 the data word comprises the
16-bit input code, ordered MSB-to-LSB. For the LTC265412 the data word comprises the 12-bit input code, ordered
MSB-to-LSB followed by four don’t-care bits. Data can
only be transferred to the LTC2654 when the CS/LD signal
is low. The rising edge of CS/LD ends the data transfer
and causes the device to carry out the action specified in
the 24-bit input word. The complete sequence is shown
in Figure 2a.
The serial output of the shift register appears at the SDO
pin. Data transferred to the device from the SDI input is
delayed 32 SCK rising edges before being output at the
next SCK falling edge. The SDO pin is continuously driven
and does not go high impedance when CS/LD is taken
active high.
The command (C3-C0) and address (A3-A0) assignments
are shown in Table 1. The first four commands in the table
consist of write and update operations. A write operation
loads a 16-bit data word from the 32-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 16- or 12-bit input code,
and is converted to an analog voltage at the DAC output.
The update operation also powers up the selected DAC
if it had been in power-down mode. The data path and
registers are shown in the block diagram.
While the minimum input word is 24 bits, it may optionally be extended to 32 bits. To use the 32-bit word width,
8 don’t-care bits are transferred to the device first, followed
by the 24-bit word as just described. Figure 2b shows the
32-bit sequence. The 32-bit word is required for daisy
chain operation, and is also available to accommodate
microprocessors that have a minimum word width of
16 bits (2 bytes). The 16-bit data word is ignored for all
commands that do not include a write operation.
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 up-stream 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.
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
(1111b) for the other devices in the chain.
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 80k resistors. Input- and DAC-register contents
are not disturbed during power-down.

LTC2654
OPERATION
Any channel or combination of DAC channels can be put
into power-down mode by using command 0100b in
combination with the appropriate DAC address, (n). 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 power-down mode using
Power-Down Chip command 0101b. For all power-down
commands the 16-bit data word is ignored, but still needs
to be clocked in.
Normal operation resumes by executing any command
which includes a DAC update, in software as shown in
Table 1 or by taking 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 12μs. If on
the other hand, 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
individual DAC amplifiers and integrated reference. In this
case, the power up delay time is 14μs. The power-up of
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 that powers up the DACs will also power-up
the integrated reference.
Asynchronous DAC Update Using LDAC
In addition to the update commands shown in Table 1, the
LDAC pin asynchronously updates all the DAC registers
with the contents of the input registers.
If CS/LD is high, a low on the LDAC pin causes all the
DAC registers to be updated with the contents of the input registers.
If CS/LD is low, a low going pulse on the LDAC pin before
the rising edge of CS/LD powers up all the DAC outputs but
does not cause the output to be updated. If LDAC remains
low after the rising edge of CS/LD, then LDAC is recognized,
the command specified in the 24-bit word just transferred
is executed and the DAC outputs are updated.
The DAC outputs are powered up when LDAC is taken
low, independent of the state of CS/LD. The integrated
reference is also powered up if it was powered down using Power-Down Chip (0101b) command. The integrated
reference will not power up when LDAC is taken low, if
it was powered down using Select External Reference
(0111b) Command.
If LDAC is low at the time CS/LD goes high, it inhibits any
software power-down command (Power-Down n, PowerDown Chip, Select External Reference) that was specified
in the input word.
Reference Modes
For applications where an accurate external reference is
not available, the LTC2654 has a user-selectable, integrated reference. The LTC2654-L has a 1.25V reference
that provides a full-scale output of 2.5V. The LTC2654-H
has a 2.048V reference that provides a full-scale output
of 4.096V. Both references exhibit a typical temperature
drift of 2ppm/°C. Internal reference mode can be selected
by using command 0110b, and is the power-on default.
A buffer is needed if the internal reference is required to
drive external circuitry. For reference stability and low
noise, connect a 0.1μF capacitor between REFCOMP and
GND. In this configuration, the internal reference can drive
up to 0.1μF capacitive load without any stability problems.
In order to ensure stable operation, the capacitive load on
REFIN/OUT pin should not exceed the capacitive load on
the REFCOMP pin.
The DAC can also operate in external reference mode using
command 0111b. In this mode, REFIN/OUT pin acts as an
input that sets the DAC’s reference voltage. The input is
high impedance and does not load the external reference
source. The acceptable voltage range at this pin is 0.5V ≤
REFIN/OUT ≤ VCC/2. The resulting full-scale output voltage
is 2•VREFIN/OUT. For using External Reference at start-up,
see the Power Supply Sequencing and Start-Up Section.

LTC2654
OPERATION
Integrated Reference Buffers
Board Layout
Each of the four DACs in the LTC2654 has its own integrated high performance reference buffer. The buffers have
very high input impedance and do not load the reference
voltage source. These buffers shield the reference voltage
from glitches caused by DAC switching and thus minimize
DAC-to-DAC Dynamic Crosstalk. Typically DAC-to-DAC
crosstalk is less than 3nV•s. By tying 0.22μF capacitors
between REFCOMP and GND, and also between REFIN/
OUT and GND, this number can be reduced to less than
1nV•s. See the curve DAC-to-DAC Dynamic Crosstalk in
the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
The excellent load regulation and DC crosstalk performance
of these devices is achieved in part by keeping signal and
power grounds separate.
Voltage Outputs
Each of the LTC2654’s four rail-to-rail output amplifiers contained in these parts has guaranteed load regulation when
sourcing or sinking up to 15mA at 5V (7.5mA at 3V).
Load regulation is a measure of the amplifier’s ability to
maintain the rated voltage accuracy over a wide range of
load conditions. The measured change in output voltage
per milliampere of forced load current change 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 amplifiers’ DC output
impedance is 0.04Ω 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 30Ω typical channel resistance of the output devices;
e.g., when sinking 1mA, the minimum output voltage =
30Ω • 1mA = 30mV. See the graph Headroom at Rails vs
Output Current in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section.
The amplifiers are stable driving capacitive loads of up
to 1000pF.
The PC board should have separate areas for the analog
and digital sections of the circuit. This keeps digital signals
away from sensitive analog signals and facilitates the use
of separate digital and analog ground planes which have
minimal capacitive and resistive interaction with each
other.
Digital and analog ground planes should be joined at only
one point, establishing a system star ground as close to
the device’s ground pin as possible. Ideally, the analog
ground plane should be located on the component side of
the board, and should be allowed to run under the part to
shield it from noise. Analog ground should be a continuous
and uninterrupted plane, except for necessary lead pads
and vias, with signal traces on another layer.
The GND pin functions as a return path for power supply
currents in the device and should be connected to analog
ground. The REFLO pin should be connected to system
star ground. Resistance from the REFLO pin to system
star ground should be as low as possible.
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 outputs of the device cannot go below
ground, they may limit for the lowest codes as shown in
Figure 3b. Similarly, limiting can occur in external reference mode near full-scale when the REFIN/OUT pin is at
VCC/2. If VREFIN/OUT = VCC/2 and the DAC full-scale error
(FSE) is positive, the output for the highest codes limits
at VCC as shown in Figure 3c. No full-scale limiting can
occur if VREFIN/OUT ≤ (VCC – FSE)/2.
Offset and linearity are defined and tested over the region
of the DAC transfer function where no output limiting can
occur.
