The AD7568 is a serial input device. Data is loaded using
FSIN, CLKIN and SDIN. One address pin, A0, sets up a device address, and this feature may be used to simplify device
loading in a multi-DAC environment.
All DACs can be simultaneously updated using the asynchronous LDAC input and they can be cleared by asserting the
asynchronous CLR input.

Description
Positive Power Supply. This is 5 V ± 5%.
Digital Ground.
Analog Ground
DAC Reference Inputs.
DAC Feedback Resistor Pins.
DAC Current Output Terminals.
This pin connects to the back gates of the current steering switches. It should be connected to the signal ground of the system.
Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edges of CLKIN. Add a pull-down resistor on the clock
line to avoid timing issues.
Level-Triggered Control Input (Active Low). This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When FSIN goes low, it
enables the input shift register, and data is transferred on the falling edges of CLKIN. If the address bit is valid, the 12-bit DAC
data is transferred to the appropriate input latch on the sixteenth falling edge after FSIN goes low.
Serial Data Input. The device accepts a 16-bit word. The first bit (DB15) is the DAC MSB, with the remaining bits following.
Next comes the device address bit, A0. If this does not correspond to the logic level on Pin A0, the data is ignored. Finally
comes the three DAC select bits. These determine which DAC in the device is selected for loading.
This shift register output allows multiple devices to be connected in a daisy-chain configuration.
Device Address Pin. This input gives the device an address. If DB3 of the serial input stream does not correspond to this, the
data that follows is ignored and not loaded to any input latch. However, it will appear at SDOUT irrespective of this.
Asynchronous LDAC Input. When this input is taken low, all DAC latches are simultaneously updated with the contents of the
input latches.
Asynchronous CLR Input. When this input is taken low, all DAC latch outputs go to zero.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy
Output Voltage Settling Time
This is the amount of time it takes for the output to settle to a
specified level for a full-scale input change. For the AD7568, it
is specified with the AD843 as the output op amp.
Relative Accuracy or endpoint linearity is a measure of the
maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the
endpoints of the DAC transfer function. It is measured after
adjusting for zero error and full-scale error and is normally expressed in Least Significant Bits or as a percentage or full-scale
reading.
Digital to Analog Glitch Impulse
This is the amount of charge injected into the analog output
when the inputs change state. It is normally specified as the area
of the glitch in either pA-secs or nV-secs, depending upon
whether the glitch is measured as a current or voltage signal. It
is measured with the reference input connected to AGND and
the digital inputs toggled between all 1s and all 0s.
Differential Nonlinearity
Differential nonlinearity is the difference between the measured
change and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent
codes. A specified differential nonlinearity of 1 LSB maximum
ensures monotonicity.
AC Feedthrough Error
This is the error due to capacitive feedthrough from the DAC
reference input to the DAC IOUT terminal, when all 0s are
loaded in the DAC.
Gain Error
Gain Error is a measure of the output error between an ideal
DAC and the actual device output. It is measured with all 1s in
the DAC after offset error has been adjusted out and is
expressed in Least Significant Bits. Gain error is adjustable to
zero with an external potentiometer.
Channel-to-Channel Isolation
Channel-to-channel isolation refers to the proportion of input
signal from one DAC’s reference input which appears at the
output of any other DAC in the device and is expressed in dBs.
Output Leakage Current
Digital Crosstalk
Output leakage current is current which flows in the DAC ladder switches when these are turned off. For the IOUT1 terminal,
it can be measured by loading all 0s to the DAC and measuring
the IOUT1 current. Minimum current will flow in the IOUT2 line
when the DAC is loaded with all 1s. This is a combination of
the switch leakage current and the ladder termination resistor
current. The IOUT2 leakage current is typically equal to that in
IOUT1.
The glitch impulse transferred to the output of one converter
due to a change in digital input code to the other converter is
defined as the Digital Crosstalk and is specified in nV-secs.
Digital Feedthrough
When the device is not selected, high frequency logic activity on
the device digital inputs is capacitively coupled through the device to show up as noise on the IOUT pin and subsequently on
the op amp output. This noise is digital feedthrough.
Output Capacitance
This is the capacitance from the IOUT1 pin to AGND.

When the FSIN input goes low, data appearing on the SDIN
line is clocked into the input shift register on each falling edge of
CLKIN. When sixteen bits have been received, the register
loading is automatically disabled until the next falling edge of
FSIN detected. Also, the received data is clocked out on the
next rising edge of CLKIN and appears on the SDOUT pin.
This feature allows several devices to be connected together in a
daisy chain fashion.

When the sixteen bits have been received in the input shift register, DB3 (A0) is checked to see if it corresponds to the state of
pin A0. If it does, then the word is accepted. Otherwise, it is disregarded. This allows the user to address one of two AD7568s
in a very simple fashion. DB0 to DB2 of the 16-bit word determine which of the eight DAC input latches is to be loaded.
When the LDAC line goes low, all eight DAC latches in the device are simultaneously loaded with the contents of their respective input latches, and the outputs change accordingly.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
D/A Section
The AD7568 contains eight 12-bit current-output D/A converters. A simplified circuit diagram for one of the D/A converters is
shown in Figure 13.
A segmented scheme is used whereby the 2 MSBs of the 12-bit
data word are decoded to drive the three switches A, B and C.
The remaining 10 bits of the data word drive the switches S0 to
S9 in a standard R–2R ladder configuration.
Bringing the CLR line low resets the DAC latches to all 0s. The
input latches are not affected, so that the user can revert to the
previous analog output if desired.
Each of the switches A to C steers 1/4 of the total reference current with the remaining current passing through the R–2R
section.
CLKIN
FSIN
SDIN
Each DAC in the device has separate VREF, IOUT1, IOUT2 and
RFB pins. This makes the device extremely versatile and allows
DACs in the same device to be configured differently.
VOUT = –D•VREF
where D is the fractional representation of the digital word
loaded to the DAC. Thus, in the AD7568, D can be set from
0 to 4095/4096.

SINGLE SUPPLY CIRCUITS
The AD7568 operates from a single +5 V supply, and this
makes it ideal for single supply systems. When operating in such
a system, it is not possible to use the standard circuits of Figures
15 and 16 since these invert the analog input, VIN. There are
two alternatives. One of these continues to operate the DAC as
a current-mode device, while the other uses the voltage switching mode.

BIPOLAR OPERATION
(4-Quadrant Multiplication)
Figure 16 shows the standard connection diagram for bipolar
operation of any one of the DACs in the AD7568. The coding is
offset binary as shown in Table IV. When VIN is an ac signal,
the circuit performs 4-quadrant multiplication. To maintain the
gain error specifications, resistors R3, R4 and R5 should be ratio matched to 0.01%.

R1
In the current mode circuit of Figure 17, IOUT2, and hence
IOUT1, is biased positive by an amount VBIAS. For the circuit to
operate correctly, the DAC ladder termination resistor must be
connected internally to IOUT2. This is the case with the AD7568.

As D varies from 0 to 4095/4096, the output voltage varies from
VOUT = VBIAS to VOUT = 2 VBIAS – VIN. VBIAS should be a low
impedance source capable of sinking and sourcing all possible
variations in current at the IOUT2 terminal without any
problems.
Figure 18. Single Supply Voltage Switching
Mode Operation
Voltage Mode Circuit
Figure 18 shows DAC A of the AD7568 operating in the
voltage-switching mode. The reference voltage, VIN is applied to
the IOUT1 pin, IOUT2 is connected to AGND and the output voltage is available at the VREF terminal. In this configuration, a
positive reference voltage results in a positive output voltage
making single supply operation possible. The output from the
DAC is a voltage at a constant impedance (the DAC ladder resistance). Thus, an op amp is necessary to buffer the output
voltage. The reference voltage input no longer sees a constant
input impedance, but one which varies with code. So, the voltage input should be driven from a low impedance source.
APPLICATIONS
Programmable State Variable Filter
The AD7568 with its multiplying capability and fast settling
time is ideal for many types of signal conditioning applications.
The circuit of Figure 19 shows its use in a state variable filter
design. This type of filter has three outputs: low pass, high pass
and bandpass. The particular version shown in Figure 19 uses
one half of an AD7568 to control the critical parameters f0, Q
and A0. Instead of several fixed resistors, the circuit uses the
DAC equivalent resistances as circuit elements. Thus, R1 in
Figure 19 is controlled by the 12-bit digital word loaded to
DAC A of the AD7568. This is also the case with R2, R3 and
R4. The fixed resistor R5 is the feedback resistor, RFBB.
It is important to note that VIN is limited to low voltages because the switches in the DAC no longer have the same sourcedrain voltage. As a result, their on-resistance differs and this
degrades the integral linearity of the DAC. Also, VIN must not
go negative by more than 0.3 volts or an internal diode will turn
on, causing possible damage to the device. This means that the
full-range multiplying capability of the DAC is lost.
DAC Equivalent Resistance, REQ = (RLADDER 3 4096)/N
where:
RLADDER is the DAC ladder resistance.
N is the DAC Digital Code in Decimal (0 < N < 4096).

APPLICATION HINTS
Output Offset
the data word transmitted to the AD7568 corresponds to the
loading sequence shown in Table I. When data is to be transmitted to the part, P3.3 is taken low. Data on RXD is valid on
the falling edge of TXD. The 80C51 transmits its serial data in
8-bit bytes with only eight falling clock edges occurring in the
transmit cycle. To load data to the AD7568, P3.3 is left low after the first eight bits are transferred, and a second byte of data
is then transferred serially to the AD7568. When the second serial transfer is complete, the P3.3 line is taken high. Note that
the 80C51 outputs the serial data byte in a format which has the
LSB first. The AD7568 expects the MSB first. The 80C51
transmit routine should take this into account.
CMOS D/A converters in circuits such as Figures 15, 16 and 17
exhibit a code dependent output resistance which in turn can
cause a code dependent error voltage at the output of the amplifier. The maximum amplitude of this error, which adds to the
D/A converter nonlinearity, depends on VOS, where VOS is the
amplifier input offset voltage. For the AD7568 to maintain
specified accuracy with VREF at 10 V, it is recommended that
VOS be no greater than 500 µV, or (50 3 10–6)•(VREF), over the
temperature range of operation. Suitable amplifiers include the
AD OP07, AD OP27, OP177, AD711, AD845 or multiple versions of these.
80C51*
High Frequency Considerations
The output capacitances of the AD7568 DACs work in conjunction with the amplifier feedback resistance to add a pole to
the open loop response. This can cause ringing or oscillation.
Stability can be restored by adding a phase compensation capacitor in parallel with the feedback resistor. This is shown as
C1 in Figures 15, 16 and 17.
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
AD7568–80C51 Interface
A serial interface between the AD7568 and the 80C51 microcontroller is shown in Figure 20. TXD of the 80C51 drives
SCLK of the AD7568 while RXD drives the serial data line of
the part. The FSIN signal is derived from the port line P3.3.
The 80C51 provides the LSB of its SBUF register as the first bit
in the serial data stream. Therefore, the user will have to ensure
that the data in the SBUF register is arranged correctly so that

Temperature Coefficients
The gain temperature coefficient of the AD7568 has a maximum value of 5 ppm/°C and a typical value of 2 ppm/°C. This
corresponds to gain shifts of 2 LSBs and 0.8 LSBs respectively
over a 100°C temperature range. When trim resistors R1 and
R2 are used to adjust full-scale in Figures 15 and 16, their temperature coefficients should be taken into account. For further
information see “Gain Error and Gain Temperature Coefficient
of CMOS Multiplying DACs,” Application Note, Publication
Number E630c–5–3/86, available from Analog Devices.
AD7568*
Figure 20. AD7568 to 80C51 Interface
LDAC and CLR on the AD7568 are also controlled by 80C51
port outputs. The user can bring LDAC low after every two
bytes have been transmitted to update the DAC which has been
programmed. Alternatively, it is possible to wait until all the input registers have been loaded (sixteen byte transmits) and then
update the DAC outputs.
AD7568–68HC11 Interface
Figure 21 shows a serial interface between the AD7568 and the
68HC11 microcontroller. SCK of the 68HC11 drives SCLK of
the AD7568, while the MOSI output drives the serial data line
of the AD7568. The FSIN signal is derived from a port line
(PC7 shown).
For correct operation of this interface, the 68HC11 should be
configured such that its CPOL bit is a 0 and its CPHA bit is a 1.
When data is to be transmitted to the part, PC7 is taken low.
When the 68HC11 is configured like this, data on MOSI is valid
on the falling edge of SCK. The 68HC11 transmits its serial
data in 8-bit bytes (MSB first), with only eight falling clock
edges occurring in the transmit cycle. To load data to the
AD7568, PC7 is left low after the first eight bits are transferred,
and a second byte of data is then transferred serially to the
AD7568. When the second serial transfer is complete, the PC7
line is taken high.

In Figure 21, LDAC and CLR are controlled by the PC6 and
PC5 port outputs. As with the 80C51, each DAC of the
AD7568 can be updated after each two-byte transfer, or else all
DACs can be simultaneously updated.

with the MSB, is then shifted out to the DX pin on the rising
edge of CLKX. When all bits have been transmitted, the user
can update the DAC outputs by bringing the XF output flag low.
AD7568–ADSP-2101 Interface
Figure 22 shows a serial interface between the AD7568 and the
ADSP-2101 digital signal processor. The ADSP-2101 may be
set up to operate in the SPORT Transmit Normal Internal
Framing Mode. The following ADSP-2101 conditions are recommended: Internal SCLK; Active High Framing Signal; 16-bit
word length. Transmission is initiated by writing a word to the
TX register after the SPORT has been enabled. The data is then
clocked out on every rising edge of SCLK after TFS goes low.
TFS stays low until the next data transfer.
Multiple DAC Systems
If there are only two AD7568s in a system, there is a simple way
of programming each. This is shown in Figure 24. If the user
wishes to program one of the DACs in the first AD7568, then
DB3 of the serial bit stream should be set to 0, to correspond to
the state of the A0 pin on that device. If the user wishes to program a DAC in the second AD7568, then DB3 should be set to
1, to correspond to A0 on that device.

AD7568
For systems which contain larger numbers of AD7568s and
where the user also wishes to read back the DAC contents for
diagnostic purposes, the SDOUT pin may be used to daisy
chain several devices together and provide the necessary serial
readback. An example with the 68HC11 is shown in Figure 25.
The routine below shows how four AD7568s would be programmed in such a system. Data is transmitted at the MOSI pin
of the 68HC11. It flows through the input shift registers of the
AD7568s and finally appears at the SDOUT pin of DAC N. So,
the readback routine can be invoked any time after the first four
words have been transmitted (the four input shift registers in the
chain will now be filled up and further activity on the CLKIN
pin will result in data being read back to the microcomputer
through the MISO pin). System connectivity can be verified in
this manner. For a four-device system (32 DACs) a two-line to
four-line decoder is necessary.
