The LTC2630-L has a full-scale output of 2.5V, and
operates from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply. The
LTC2630-H has a full-scale output of 4.096V, and operates
from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply. Each DAC can also operate in
supply as reference mode, which sets the full-scale output
to the supply voltage.
The parts use a simple SPI/MICROWIRE™ compatible
3-wire serial interface which operates at clock rates up
to 50MHz.
The LTC2630 incorporates a power-on reset circuit. Options are available for reset to zero or reset to mid-scale
after power-up.
Applications
n
The LTC®2630 is a family of 12-, 10-, and 8-bit voltageoutput DACs with an integrated, high-accuracy, low-drift
reference in a 6-lead SC70 package. It has a rail-to-rail
output buffer and is guaranteed monotonic.

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 are with respect to GND.
Note 3: High temperatures degrade operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime
is derated at temperatures greater than 105°C.
Note 4: Linearity and monotonicity are defined from code kL to code 2N–1,
where N is the resolution and kL is given by kL = 0.016 • (2N/ VFS), rounded
to the nearest whole code. For VFS = 2.5V and N = 12, kL = 26 and linearity
is defined from code 26 to code 4,095. For VFS = 4.096V and
N = 12, kL = 16 and linearity is defined from code 16 to code 4,095.
Note 5: Inferred from measurement at code 16 (LTC2630-12), code 4
(LTC2630-10) or code 1 (LTC2630-8).

MHz
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: Digital inputs at 0V or VCC.
Note 8: Guaranteed by design and not production tested.
Note 9: Internal Reference mode. DAC is stepped 1/4 scale to 3/4 scale
and 3/4 scale to 1/4 scale. Load is 2kW in parallel with 100pF to GND.
Note 10: Temperature coefficient is calculated by dividing the maximum
change in output voltage by the specified temperature range.

Operation
The LTC2630 is a family of single voltage output DACs in
6-lead SC70 packages. Each DAC can operate rail-to-rail
referenced to the input supply, or with its full-scale voltage
set by an integrated reference. Twelve combinations of
accuracy (12-, 10-, and 8-bit), power-on reset value (zero
or mid-scale), and full-scale voltage (2.5V or 4.096V) are
available. The LTC2630 is controlled using a 3-wire SPI/
MICROWIRE compatible interface.
Power-On Reset
The LTC2630-HZ/-LZ clear the output to zero scale 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 LTC2630
contains circuitry to reduce the power-on glitch: the
analog output typically rises less than 5mV 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 “Power-On Reset Glitch” in the Typical Performance
Characteristics section.
Transfer Function
The digital-to-analog transfer function is
 k 
VOUT(IDEAL) =  N  VREF
2 
where k is the decimal equivalent of the binary DAC
input code, N is the resolution, and VREF is either 2.5V
(LTC2630-L) or 4.096V (LTC2630-H) in internal reference mode, and VCC in Supply as reference mode.

Figure 2. Command and Data Input Format
Serial Interface
The CS/LD input is level triggered. When this input is taken
low, it acts as a chip-select signal, enabling the SDI and
SCK buffers and 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; then 4 don’t-care bits;
and finally the 16-bit data word. The data word comprises
the 12-, 10- or 8-bit input code, ordered MSB-to-LSB, followed by 4, 6 or 8 don’t-care bits (LTC2630-12, -10 and
-8 respectively; see Figure 2). Data can only be transferred
to the device when the CS/LD signal is low, beginning on
the first rising edge of SCK. SCK may be high or low at
the falling edge of CS/LD. The rising edge of CS/LD ends
the data transfer and causes the device to execute the
command specified in the 24-bit input sequence. The
complete sequence is shown in Figure 3a.
The command (C3-C0) assignments are shown in Table 1.
The first three commands in the table consist of write and
update operations. A Write operation loads a 16-bit data
word from the 24-bit shift register into the input register.
In an Update operation, the input register is copied to the
DAC register and converted to an analog voltage at the
DAC output. Write to and Update combines the first two
commands. The Update operation also powers up the
DAC if it had been in power-down mode. The data path
and registers are shown in the Block Diagram.
While the minimum input sequence is 24-bits, it may
optionally be extended to 32-bits to accommodate microprocessors that have a minimum word width of 16-bits
(2 bytes). To use the 32-bit width, 8 don’t-care bits are
transferred to the device first, followed by the 24-bit sequence described. Figure 3b shows the 32-bit sequence.
2630ff
14
LTC2630
OPERATION
The 16-bit data word is ignored for all commands that do
not include a Write operation.
Power-Down Mode
For power-constrained applications, power-down mode
can be used to reduce the supply current whenever the
DAC output is not needed. When in power-down, the buffer
amplifier, bias circuit, and reference circuit are disabled
and draw essentially zero current. The DAC output is put
into a high-impedance state, and the output pin is passively
pulled to ground through a 200kΩ resistor. Input and DAC
register contents are not disturbed during power-down.
The DAC can be put into power-down mode by using
command 0100. The supply current is reduced to 1.8µA
maximum when the DAC is powered down.
Normal operation resumes after executing any command
that includes a DAC update, as shown in Table 1. The DAC
is powered up and its voltage output is updated. Normal
settling is delayed while the bias, reference, and amplifier
circuits are re-enabled. The power-up delay time is 18µs
for settling to 12-bits.
Reference Modes
For applications where an accurate external reference is not
available, the LTC2630 has a user-selectable, integrated
reference. The LTC2630-LM and LTC2630-LZ provide a
full-scale output of 2.5V. The LTC2630-HM and LTC2630HZ provide a full-scale output of 4.096V.
The DAC can also operate in supply as reference mode
using command 0111. In this mode, VCC supplies the
DAC’s reference voltage and the supply current is reduced.
Voltage Output
The LTC2630’s integrated rail-to-rail amplifier has guaranteed load regulation when sourcing or sinking up to
10mA at 5V, and 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 current. The measured change in output voltage per
change in forced load current 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 amplifier’s DC output
impedance is 0.1Ω 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 50Ω typical channel resistance of the output devices
(e.g., when sinking 1mA, the minimum output voltage is
50Ω • 1mA, or 50mV). See the graph “Headroom at Rails
vs. Output Current” in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
The amplifier is stable driving capacitive loads of up to
500pF.
The internal reference can be useful in applications where
the supply voltage is poorly regulated. Internal Reference
mode can be selected by using command 0110, and is
the power-on default.
2630ff
15
LTC2630
OPERATION
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 output of the DAC cannot go below ground,
it may limit for the lowest codes as shown in Figure 4b.
Similarly, limiting can occur near full scale when using the
supply as reference. If VFS = VCC and the DAC full-scale
error (FSE) is positive, the output for the highest codes
limits at VCC , as shown in Figure 4. No full-scale limiting
can occur if VFS is less than VCC–FSE.
Offset and linearity are defined and tested over the region
of the DAC transfer function where no output limiting can
occur.
Board Layout
The PC board should have separate areas for the analog and
digital sections of the circuit. A single, solid ground plane
should be used, with analog and digital signals carefully
routed over separate areas of the plane. This keeps digital
signals away from sensitive analog signals and minimizes
the interaction between digital ground currents and the
analog section of the ground plane. The resistance from
the LTC2630 GND pin to the ground plane should be as
low as possible. Resistance here will add directly to the
effective DC output impedance of the device (typically
0.1Ω). Note that the LTC2630 is no more susceptible to
this effect than any other parts of this type; on the contrary, it allows layout-based performance improvements
to shine rather than limiting attainable performance with
excessive internal resistance.
Another technique for minimizing errors is to use a separate power ground return trace on another board layer.
The trace should run between the point where the power
supply is connected to the board and the DAC ground pin.
Thus the DAC ground pin becomes the common point for
analog ground, digital ground, and power ground. When
the LTC2630 is sinking large currents, this current flows
out the ground pin and directly to the power ground trace
without affecting the analog ground plane voltage.
It is sometimes necessary to interrupt the ground plane
to confine digital ground currents to the digital portion of
the plane. When doing this, make the gap in the plane only
as long as it needs to be to serve its purpose and ensure
that no traces cross over the gap.

OPERATION
Optoisolated 4mA to 20mA Process Controller
additional current through Q1. Note that at the maximum
loop voltage of 80V, Q1 will dissipate 1.6W when IOUT =
20mA and must have an appropriate heat sink.
Figure 5 shows how to use an LTC2630HZ to make an
optoisolated, digitally-controlled 4mA to 20mA transmitter. The transmitter circuitry, including optoisolation, is
powered by the loop voltage which has a wide range of
5.4V to 80V. The 5V output of the LT®3010-5 is used to
set the 4mA offset current and VOUT is used to digitally
control the 0mA to 16mA signal current. The supply current for the regulator, DAC, and op amp is well below
the 4mA budget at zero scale. RS senses the total loop
current, which includes the quiescent supply current and
ROFFSET and RGAIN are the closest 0.1% values to ideal
for controlling a 4mA to 20mA output as the digital input
varies from zero scale to full scale. Alternatively, ROFFSET
can be a 365k, 1% resistor in series with a 20k trim pot
and RGAIN can be a 75.0k, 1% resistor in series with a 5k
trim pot. The optoisolators shown will limit the speed of
the serial bus; the 6N139 is an alternative that will allow
higher data rates.
