HS-565ARH TM Data Sheet November 2000 Radiation Hardened High Speed, Monolithic Digital-to-Analog Converter The HS-565ARH is a fast, radiation hardened 12-bit current output, digital-to-analog converter. The monolithic chip includes a precision voltage reference, thin-film R-2R ladder, reference control amplifier and twelve high-speed bipolar current switches. The Intersil Corporation Dielectric Isolation process provides latch-up free operation while minimizing stray capacitance and leakage currents, to produce an excellent combination of speed and accuracy. Also, ground currents are minimized to produce a low and constant current through the ground terminal, which reduces error due to code-dependent ground currents. HS-565ARH die are laser trimmed for a maximum integral nonlinearity error of ±0.25 LSB at 25oC. In addition, the low noise buried zener reference is trimmed both for absolute value and minimum temperature coefficient.

It describes the deviation from an ideal straight line transfer curve drawn between zero (all bits OFF) and full scale (all bits ON). Differential Nonlinearity - For a D/A converter, it is the difference between the actual output voltage change and the ideal (1 LSB) voltage change for a one bit change in code. A Differential Nonlinearity of ±1 LSB or less guarantees monotonicity; i.e., the output always increases and never decreases for an increasing input.

Offset drift is calculated for both high (TH - 25oC) and low (25oC - TL) ranges by dividing the offset error by the respective change in temperature. The HS-565ARH specification given is the larger of the two, representing worst case drift. Power Supply Sensitivity Power Supply Sensitivity is a measure of the change in gain and offset of the D/A converter resulting from a change in 15V or +15V supplies.

Worst case glitches usually occur at half scale or the major carry code transition from 011 . . . 1 to 100 . . . 0 or vice versa. For example, if turn ON is greater than turn OFF for 011 . . . 1 to 100 . . . 0, an intermediate state of 000 . . . 0 exists, such that, the output momentarily glitches toward zero output. Matched switching times and fast switching will reduce glitches considerably. Applying the HS-565ARH OP AMP Selection The HS-565ARH’s current output may be converted to voltage using the standard connections shown in Figures 1 and 2. The choice of operational amplifier should be reviewed for each application, since a significant trade-off may be made between speed and accuracy. Remember settling time for the DAC-amplifier combination is ( t )2 + ( t )2 D -15V 8 HS-565ARH Compliance Compliance Voltage is the maximum output voltage range that can be tolerated and still maintain its specified accuracy.

UNIPOLAR VOLTAGE OUTPUT No Trim Operation The HS-565ARH will perform as specified without calibration adjustments. To operate without calibration, substitute 50Ω resistors for the 100Ω trimming potentiometers: In Figure 1 replace R2 with 50Ω; also remove the network on pin 8 and connect 50Ω to ground. For bipolar operation in Figure 2, replace R3 and R4 with 50Ω resistors. With these changes, performance is guaranteed as shown under Specifications, “External Adjustments”. Typical unipolar zero will be ±0.50 LSB plus the op amp offset. The feedback capacitor C must be selected to minimize settling time. R4 100Ω R3 100Ω VCC REF OUT 4 3 BIP.

BIPOLAR VOLTAGE OUTPUT 4 - C 9 3K 7 -VEE VO 10V SPAN 9.95K + R (SEE TABLE 7) HS-565ARH Calibration Calibration provides the maximum accuracy from a converter by adjusting its gain and offset errors to zero, For the HS-565ARH, these adjustments are similar whether the current output is used, or whether an external op amp is added to convert this current to a voltage. Refer to Table 7 for the voltage output case, along with Figure 1 or 2. Calibration is a two step process for each of the five output ranges shown in Table 7. First adjust the negative full scale (zero for unipolar ranges). This is an offset adjust which translates the output characteristic, i.e. affects each code by the same amount. Next adjust positive FS. This is a gain error adjustment, which rotates the output characteristic about the negative FS value. For the bipolar ranges, this approach leaves an error at the zero code, whose maximum values is the same as for integral nonlinearity error. In general, only two values of output may be calibrated exactly; all others must tolerate some error. Choosing the extreme end points (plus and minus full scale) minimizes this distributed error for all other codes. The usual specification is based on a 10V step, produced by simultaneously switching all bits from off-to-on (tON) or onto-off (tOFF). The slower of the two cases is specified, as measured from 50% of the digital input transition to the final entry within a window of 0.50 LSB about the settled value. Four measurements characterize a given type of DAC: (a) tON, to final value +0.50 LSB (b) tON, to final value -0.50 LSB (c) tOFF, to final value +0.50 LSB (d) OFF, to final value -0.50 LSB (Cases (b) and (c) may be eliminated unless the overshoot exceeds 0.50 LSB). For example, refer to Figures 3A and 3B for the measurement of case (d). Procedure As shown in Figure 3B, settling time equals tX plus the comparator delay (tD = 15ns). To measure tX, • Adjust the delay on generator number 2 for a tX of several microseconds. This assures that the DAC output has settled to its final wave. • Switch on the LSB (+5V) Settling Time This is a challenging measurement, in which the result depends on the method chosen, the precision and quality of test equipment and the operating configuration of the DAC (test conditions). As a result, the different techniques in use by converter manufacturers can lead to consistently different results. An engineer should understand the advantage and limitations of a given test methods before using the specified settling time as a basis for design. The approach used for several years at Intersil calls for a strobed comparator to sense final perturbations of the DAC output waveform. This gives the LSB a reasonable magnitude (814mV for the HS-565ARH, which provides the comparator with enough overdrive to establish an accurate ±0.50 LSB window about the final settled value. Also, the required test conditions simulate the DACs environment for a common application - use in a successive approximation A/D converter. Considerable experience has shown this to be a reliable and repeatable way to measure settling time. • Adjust the VLSB supply for 50% triggering at COMPARATOR OUT. This is indicated by traces of equal brightness on the oscilloscope display as shown in Figure 3B. Note DVM reading. • Switch to LSB to Pulse (P) • Readjust the VLSB supply for 50% triggering as before, and note DVM reading. One LSB equals one tenth the difference in the DVM readings noted above. • Adjust the VLSB supply to reduce the DVM reading by 5 LSBs (DVM reads 10X, so this sets the comparator to sense the final settled value minus 0.50 LSB). Comparator output disappears. • Reduce generator number 2 delay until comparator output reappears, and adjust for “equal brightness”. • Measure tX from scope as shown in Figure 3B. Settling time equals tX + tD, i.e. tX + 15ns. TABLE 1.

Other Considerations Grounds The HS-565ARH has two ground terminals, pin 5 (REF GND) and pin 12 (PWR GND). These should not be tied together near the package unless that point is also the system signal ground to which all returns are connected. (If such a point exists, then separate paths are required to pins 5 and 12). The current through pin 5 is near zero DC (Note); but pin 12 carries up to 1.75mA of code - dependent current from bits 1, 2, and 3. The general rule is to connect pin 5 directly to the system “quiet” point, usually called signal or analog ground. Connect pin 12 to the local digital or power ground. Then, of course, a single path must connect the analog/signal and digital/power grounds. NOTE: Current cancellation is a two step process within the HS565ARH in which code dependent variations are eliminated, the resulting DC current is supplied internally. First an auxiliary 9-bit R2R ladder is driven by the complement of the DACs input code. Together, the main and auxiliary ladders draw a continuous 2.25mA 6 from the internal ground node, regardless of input code. Part of the DC current is supplied by the zener voltage reference, and the remainder is sourced from the positive supply via a current mirror which is laser trimmed for zero current through the external terminal (pin 5). Layout Connections to pin 9 (IOUT) on the HS-565ARH are most critical for high speed performance. Output capacitance of the DAC is only 20pF, so a small change of additional capacitance may alter the op amp’s stability and affect settling time. Connections to pin 9 should be short and few. Component leads should be short on the side connecting to pin 9 (as for feedback capacitor C). See the Settling Time section. Bypass Capacitors Power supply bypass capacitors on the op amp will serve the HS-565ARH also. If no op amp is used, a 0.01µF ceramic capacitor from each supply terminal to pin 12 is sufficient, since supply current variations are small.
