Collin Wells, Reza Abdullah TI Precision Designs: Verified Design Combined Voltage and Current Output Terminal for Analog Outputs (AO) in Industrial Applications TI Precision Designs Circuit Description TI Precision Designs are analog solutions created by TI’s analog experts. Verified Designs offer the theory, part selection, simulation, complete PCB schematic & layout, bill of materials, and measured performance of useful circuits. Circuit modifications that help to meet alternate design goals are also discussed. Standard industrial analog output (AO) circuits are dedicated to either voltage or current outputs. This design using the DAC8760 can output both the standard industrial voltage and current outputs on a single terminal, thus reducing the number of terminals needed from three to two. A combined output succeeds in reducing the wiring cost, connector count, and increasing the versatility of the AO design. The possible outputs of the design include: 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA, 0-24 mA, 0-5 V, 0-10 V, +/-5 V, +/-10 V, as well as voltage over-ranges.

A 0 V to 5 V digital-to-analog converter (DAC) drives the inputs for both the voltage (VOUT) and current (IOUT) output stages. The DAC requires an accurate, low-drift reference voltage (VREF) to deliver strong dc performance, along with a voltage regulator (VREG) to drop the analog supply, AVDD, down to +5 V for the low-voltage analog and digital circuitry.

The two-stage current source enables the GND referenced DAC output to drive the high-side amplifier required for the current-source. For detailed design information on the design of a high-side voltage-to-current output stage, please refer to TIPD502. When VOUT is active, Q2 is kept in a high-impedance state and does not negatively affect the VOUT circuit performance. Refer to SBAA199 for a more detailed investigation of the effects that occur when creating a combined voltage and current output driver with the DACx760 family. SLAU119-December 2013-Revised December 2013 Combined Voltage and Current Output Terminal for Analog Outputs Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated 3 www.ti.com 2.2 VOUT Circuitry The VOUT circuit is composed of amplifiers A3, A4, and the feedback network around A3 consisting of RF, RG1, and RG2. A3 operates as a modified summing amplifier where the DAC controls the non-inverting input and the inverting input has one path to GND and a second to VREF. This configuration allows the single ended 0-5 V DAC to create both the unipolar 0-5 V and 0-10 V outputs and the bi-polar +/-5 V and +/-10 V outputs. A resistor switching network is used to change the values of R G1 and RG2 depending on the selected voltage output range. A4 is used to buffer the resistive feedback network of A3 so the feedback resistors do not present a resistive load on the IOUT circuitry which would reduce the current delivered to the load. A4 is therefore inside the feedback loop of A3 and contributes directly to errors of the voltage output stage. In a buffer configuration the gain and linearity errors will be negligible but the offset voltage will add directly to the VOUT circuit offset voltage. 2.3 Digital Isolation Most AO modules require isolation from the backplane and other AO modules. This is typically accomplished by isolating the digital signals between the host processor/controller and the DAC in the AO circuit. There are many topologies available to achieve the isolation but galvanic (capacitive) isolation has many advantages over other topologies and will be selected for this design. 3 Component Selection A detailed schematic for the design with the final components is shown in Figure 3. +15V Isolation Barrier 0.1 μF 0.1uF 4.7uF 0.1uF 0.1uF 0.1uF 100 pF +15V -15V 0.1uF 4.7uF + +5V 0.1uF VDD Digital Controller MOSI OPA192 100 pF DVDD DVDD Select VCC1 VCC2 INA OUTA /CS INB SCLK INC ISO7641 LATCH OUTC SCLK SDO MISO OUTD GND GND1 GND2 0.1 μF DNI DIN OUTB IND AVDD AVSS +VSENSE CMP -15V VOUT DAC8760 +/-10V, 0-10V, +/-5V, 0-5V, 4-20mA, 0-20mA, 0-24mA VOUT / IOUT -VSENSE IOUT HART-IN GND REFOUT REFIN RTN 22nF 0.1uF Figure 3: Complete Schematic for Combined V+I Analog Output 3.1 DAC – DAC8760 The DAC8760 includes the DAC, amplifiers A1, A2, and A3, VREG, VREF, and all of the switches, transistors, and resistors required to create a configurable integrated solution for industrial voltage and current output drivers. The DAC8760 features a max 0.1% full-scale range (FSR) total-unadjusted-error (TUE) specification, which includes offset error, gain error, and integral non-linearity (INL) errors at 25°C. The 0.1% FSR TUE is valid for all of the voltage and current output stages providing a baseline for the final system accuracy. The max differential non-linearity (DNL) specification of +/-1 least significant bit (LSB) provides fully monotonic operation for both VOUT and IOUT. 4 Combined Voltage and Current Output Terminal for Analog Outputs SLAU119-December 2013-Revised December 2013 Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated www.ti.com The integral non-linearity (INL) specifications of 0.022% FSR for VOUT and 0.024% FSR for IOUT demonstrate high linearity and accuracy. The integrated VREF circuit provides a low temperature drift reference for the DAC, specified at 10 ppm/°C. The 4-wire SPI communication bus features a daisy-chain option that allows multiple DAC8760 devices to be controlled through a single 4-channel digital isolator, enabling a group-isolated multiple output system. Another integrated option is the 12-bit DAC7760. For discrete options refer to Section 7. 3.2 Amplifier Selection – OPA192 The buffer amplifier becomes a part of the feedback network of the DAC8760 VOUT circuit and any dc errors will directly contribute to the final VOUT accuracy. An amplifier with low offset voltage (VOS), low VOS drift (VOS(DRIFT)), high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR), and high power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) will help keep the error contribution of the amplifier as low as possible. A JFET, CMOS, or low input bias current BJT input topology amplifier should be used to prevent the input bias current from affecting the IOUT TM circuit. The OPA192 was chosen for its precision e-trim topology that achieves 5uV typical, 25 uV max, VOS and 0.2 uV/°C typical, 0.5 uV/°C max VOS(DRIFT) without the use of chopping or other switching offset cancellation techniques. The rail-to-rail CMOS input stage features a typical CMRR of 110 dB and a typical PSRR of 0.5 μV/V over the full supply range of +4 V to +36 V. The CMOS inputs result in a maximum input bias current (iB) of 20pA which will not noticeably affect the IOUT circuit performance. A bandwidth of 10 MHz, slew rate of 20 V/μs, and 0.01% settling time of 1 μs keeps the amplifier from limiting system bandwidth. The rail-to-rail output and output current drive capabilities allow for good swing to GND if operated in a single-supply configuration. 3.3 Digital Isolator – ISO7641 The four serial data signals required to communicate bi-directionally with the DAC8760 are SCLK, DIN, SDO, and LATCH. In order to maintain isolation from the host controller, these signals must be isolated through a digital isolator. The ISO7641 is a 25 MBPS digital isolator that features >4 kV galvanic isolation. 3.4 Passive Component Selection Although it was not tested in this design, a footprint was included for an external R SET resistor (R1). Unless the RSET resistor is populated, there are not any passive components that require high precision for this design. If an external RSET resistor is used with this design then it should be chosen for high accuracy and low temperature coefficient. The voltage compensation capacitor, CCOMP, was not installed for this design because the output capacitive load was very small. If capacitive load drive capabilities are required then C COMP will need to be installed and sized based on the DACx760 datasheet requirements. All capacitors in the signal path should be sized for a voltage coefficient that well exceeds the voltage that will be placed across them to keep the capacitance values constant during. Use C0G/NP0 dielectric capacitors when possible and X7R when C0G/NP0 are not available.

The small 20 pA iB current of the OPA192, shown in Figure 4, is lower than the output noise of the DAC8760 and will not negatively affect the output. The expected performance can be calculated based on the specifications in the product datasheet that are shown in Figure 5. Figure 4: OPA192 iB Specification Figure 5: DAC8760 DC IOUT Specifications Based on the product specifications, the expected output performance for the IOUT circuit at room temperature (25°C) is displayed in Table 2.

Therefore the op amp errors combine with the errors of the DAC8760 for the final VOUT error. In a buffer configuration, the high openloop gain of the OPA192 won’t contribute any significant gain or linearity errors. The OPA192 offset voltage and CMRR specifications are shown in Figure 6. Since the OPA192 is in a buffer configuration, the common-mode voltage changes with the input signal and will cause additional offset voltage. The worstcase will be at the +10V and -10V levels resulting the total offset voltage calculated in Equation 1. The OPA192 offset voltage will directly add to the bipolar zero offset voltage of the DAC8760, shown in Figure 7. 6 Combined Voltage and Current Output Terminal for Analog Outputs SLAU119-December 2013-Revised December 2013 Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated www.ti.com 110 VOS _ OPA192 VOS VOS _ CMRR 5 V 10V / 10 20 36.62 V (1) Figure 6: OPA192 Specifications Figure 7: DAC8760 VOUT Specifications Since the two offset voltages are uncorrelated, a probable total offset error can be calculated by taking the root of the sum of squares (RSS) of their individual offset voltages, as shown in the equations below.

The +VSENSE signal routed directly from the output terminal to reduce errors from PCB wiring resistance that would be present if it was connected to VOUT before the output terminal.

Another option for a combined output is to use a discrete DAC, such as a DAC856x device, and the XTR300 output driver. For designs that only require IOUT, the DACx750 family offers 12-bit and 16-bit integrated solutions. A DAC856x device and the XTR111 output driver can be used for a discrete current only solution. SLAU119-December 2013-Revised December 2013 Combined Voltage and Current Output Terminal for Analog Outputs Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated 11 www.ti.com Any +36 V op amp can be used as the buffer amplifier in this design. However, as mentioned in Section 3.2, dc errors from the op amp combine with the dc errors of the DAC affecting the VOUT performance. Therefore, selecting an op amp with low offset voltage, low offset drift, high CMRR, and high PSRR will TM prevent the op amp from reducing the performance of the DAC. The OPA192 is a precision e-trim device TM and other devices in this family will work well in this application. Devices in the zero-drift offset cancellation series such as the OPA188 are also very good options for the best drift and offset performance. Other +36 V amplifiers for this application are the OPA277, OPA170, or OPA140. Op amps for single-supply applications must have input and output stages that include the negative rail for proper operation.

TI DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OF TITLE AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, QUIET POSSESSION, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS WITH REGARD TO TI REFERENCE DESIGNS OR USE THEREOF. TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY BUYERS AGAINST ANY THIRD PARTY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON A COMBINATION OF COMPONENTS PROVIDED IN A TI REFERENCE DESIGN. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY AND WHETHER OR NOT TI HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF TI REFERENCE DESIGNS OR BUYER’S USE OF TI REFERENCE DESIGNS. TI reserves the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All semiconductor products are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment. TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques for TI components are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily performed. TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide adequate design and operating safeguards. Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books, data sheets or reference designs is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that anticipate dangerous failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of dangerous failures and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of any TI components in Buyer’s safety-critical applications. In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms. No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing such use. Only those TI components that TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components that have not been so designated is solely at Buyer's risk, and Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use. TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
