The second byte sent to a PCF8591 device will be stored
in its control register and is required to control the device
function. The upper nibble of the control register is used for
enabling the analog output, and for programming the
analog inputs as single-ended or differential inputs. The
lower nibble selects one of the analog input channels
defined by the upper nibble (see Fig.5). If the
auto-increment flag is set, the channel number is
incremented automatically after each A/D conversion.
MBL823
If the auto-increment mode is desired in applications
where the internal oscillator is used, the analog output
enable flag in the control byte (bit 6) should be set. This
allows the internal oscillator to run continuously, thereby
preventing conversion errors resulting from oscillator
start-up delay. The analog output enable flag may be reset
at other times to reduce quiescent power consumption.
Fig.3 Pinning diagram (SO16).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Addressing
The selection of a non-existing input channel results in the
highest available channel number being allocated.
Therefore, if the auto-increment flag is set, the next
selected channel will be always channel 0. The most
significant bits of both nibbles are reserved for future
functions and have to be set to logic 0. After a Power-on
reset condition all bits of the control register are reset to
logic 0. The D/A converter and the oscillator are disabled
for power saving. The analog output is switched to a
high-impedance state.
Each PCF8591 device in an I2C-bus system is activated by
sending a valid address to the device. The address
consists of a fixed part and a programmable part. The
programmable part must be set according to the address
pins A0, A1 and A2. The address always has to be sent as
the first byte after the start condition in the I2C-bus
protocol. The last bit of the address byte is the
read/write-bit which sets the direction of the following data
transfer (see Figs 4, 16 and 17).

control register. In the active state the output voltage is
held until a further data byte is sent.
The third byte sent to a PCF8591 device is stored in the
DAC data register and is converted to the corresponding
analog voltage using the on-chip D/A converter. This D/A
converter consists of a resistor divider chain connected to
the external reference voltage with 256 taps and selection
switches. The tap-decoder switches one of these taps to
the DAC output line (see Fig.6).
The on-chip D/A converter is also used for successive
approximation A/D conversion. In order to release the
DAC for an A/D conversion cycle the unity gain amplifier is
equipped with a track and hold circuit. This circuit holds the
output voltage while executing the A/D conversion.
The output voltage supplied to the analog output AOUT is
given by the formula shown in Fig.7. The waveforms of a
D/A conversion sequence are shown in Fig.8.
The analog output voltage is buffered by an auto-zeroed
unity gain amplifier. This buffer amplifier may be switched
on or off by setting the analog output enable flag of the

A/D conversion
converted to the corresponding 8-bit binary code. Samples
picked up from differential inputs are converted to an 8-bit
twos complement code (see Figs 10 and 11).
The A/D converter makes use of the successive
approximation conversion technique. The on-chip D/A
converter and a high-gain comparator are used
temporarily during an A/D conversion cycle.
The conversion result is stored in the ADC data register
and awaits transmission. If the auto-increment flag is set
the next channel is selected.
An A/D conversion cycle is always started after sending a
valid read mode address to a PCF8591 device. The A/D
conversion cycle is triggered at the trailing edge of the
acknowledge clock pulse and is executed while
transmitting the result of the previous conversion (see
Fig.9).
The first byte transmitted in a read cycle contains the
conversion result code of the previous read cycle. After a
Power-on reset condition the first byte read is a
hexadecimal 80. The protocol of an I2C-bus read cycle is
shown in Chapter 8, Figs 16 and 17.
Once a conversion cycle is triggered an input voltage
sample of the selected channel is stored on the chip and is
The maximum A/D conversion rate is given by the actual
speed of the I2C-bus.

Reference voltage
Oscillator
For the D/A and A/D conversion either a stable external
voltage reference or the supply voltage has to be applied
to the resistor divider chain (pins VREF and AGND).
The AGND pin has to be connected to the system analog
ground and may have a DC off-set with reference to VSS.
An on-chip oscillator generates the clock signal required
for the A/D conversion cycle and for refreshing the
auto-zeroed buffer amplifier. When using this oscillator the
EXT pin has to be connected to VSS. At the OSC pin the
oscillator frequency is available.
A low frequency may be applied to the VREF and AGND
pins. This allows the use of the D/A converter as a
one-quadrant multiplier; see Chapter 15 and Fig.7.
If the EXT pin is connected to VDD the oscillator output
OSC is switched to a high-impedance state allowing the
user to feed an external clock signal to OSC.
The A/D converter may also be used as a one or two
quadrant analog divider. The analog input voltage is
divided by the reference voltage. The result is converted to
a binary code. In this application the user has to keep the
reference voltage stable during the conversion cycle.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE I2C-BUS
The I2C-bus is for bidirectional, two-line communication between different ICs or modules. The two lines are a serial data
line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor. Data
transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
8.1
Bit transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain stable during the HIGH period
of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time will be interpreted as a control signal.

8.2
Start and stop conditions
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-LOW transition of the data line, while the
clock is HIGH, is defined as the start condition (S). A LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH, is
defined as the stop condition (P).

Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the start and stop conditions from transmitter to receiver is not limited.
Each data byte of eight bits is followed by one acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH level put on the bus by
the transmitter whereas the master also generates an extra acknowledge related clock pulse. A slave receiver which is
addressed must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte. Also a master must generate an
acknowledge after the reception of each byte that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter. The device that
acknowledges has to pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW
during the HIGH period of the acknowledge related clock pulse. A master receiver must signal an end of data to the
transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this event the
transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to generate a stop condition.

I2C-bus protocol
After a start condition a valid hardware address has to be sent to a PCF8591 device. The read/write bit defines the
direction of the following single or multiple byte data transfer. For the format and the timing of the start condition (S), the
stop condition (P) and the acknowledge bit (A) refer to the I2C-bus characteristics. In the write mode a data transfer is
terminated by sending either a stop condition or the start condition of the next data transfer.

15 APPLICATION INFORMATION
Inputs must be connected to VSS or VDD when not in use. Analog inputs may also be connected to AGND or VREF.
In order to prevent excessive ground and supply noise and to minimize cross-talk of the digital to analog signal paths the
user has to design the printed-circuit board layout very carefully. Supply lines common to a PCF8591 device and noisy
digital circuits and ground loops should be avoided. Decoupling capacitors (>10 µF) are recommended for power supply
and reference voltage inputs.

The total contact time of successive solder waves must not
exceed 5 seconds.
17 SOLDERING
17.1
Introduction to soldering through-hole mount
packages
The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but
the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the
specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg(max)). If the
printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling
may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the
temperature within the permissible limit.
This text gives a brief insight to wave, dip and manual
soldering. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be
found in our “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit
Packages” (document order number 9398 652 90011).
Wave soldering is the preferred method for mounting of
through-hole mount IC packages on a printed-circuit
board.
17.2
17.3
Apply the soldering iron (24 V or less) to the lead(s) of the
package, either below the seating plane or not more than
2 mm above it. If the temperature of the soldering iron bit
is less than 300 °C it may remain in contact for up to
10 seconds. If the bit temperature is between
300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
Soldering by dipping or by solder wave
The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is
260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact
with the joints for more than 5 seconds.
