Easy implementation
User selectable gain of 1 or 2 (GAIN pin/gain bit)
Reset to zero scale or midscale (RSTSEL pin)
1.8 V logic compatibility
50 MHz SPI with readback or daisy chain
Robust 2 kV HBM and 1.5 kV FICDM ESD rating
20-lead, TSSOP and LFCSP RoHS-compliant packages
The AD5676 is a low power, octal, 16-bit buffered voltage
output digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The device includes
a gain select pin, giving a full-scale output of VREF (gain = 1) or
2 × VREF (gain = 2). The AD5676 DAC operates from a single
2.7 V to 5.5 V supply and is guaranteed monotonic by design.
The AD5676 is available in 20-lead TSSOP and LFCSP packages.
The internal power-on reset circuit and the RSTSEL pin of the
AD5676 ensure that the output DACs power up to zero scale or
midscale and then remain there until a valid write takes place. The
AD5676 contains a per channel power-down mode that typically
reduces the current consumption of the device to 1 µA.
The AD5676 employs a versatile serial peripheral interface (SPI)
that operates at clock rates up to 50 MHz, and contains a VLOGIC pin
intended for 1.8 V to 5.5 V logic.

Channel 0, Channel 1, Channel 2, and Channel 3 can together source/sink 40 mA. Similarly, Channel 4, Channel 5, Channel 6, and Channel 7 can together source/sink
40 mA up to a junction temperature of 125°C.

VDD = 5 V. The AD5676 includes current limiting that is intended to protect the device during temporary overload conditions. Junction temperature can be exceeded
during current limit. Operation above the specified maximum operation junction temperature may impair device reliability.
6
When drawing a load current at either rail, the output voltage headroom with respect to that rail is limited by the 25 Ω typical channel resistance of the output
devices. For example, when sinking 1 mA, the minimum output voltage = 25 Ω × 1 mA = 25 mV.

Description
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 1. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 0. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Power Supply Input. The AD5676 operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Decouple VDD with a 10 µF capacitor in parallel with
a 0.1 µF capacitor to GND.
Digital Power Supply. Voltage ranges from 1.8 V to 5.5 V.
Active Low Control Input. This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When SYNC goes low, data
transfers in on the falling edges of the next 24 clocks.
Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input. Data
transfers at rates of up to 50 MHz.
Serial Data Input. The AD5676 has a 24-bit input shift register. Data is clocked into the register on the falling edge
of the serial clock input.
Span Set. When this pin is tied to GND, all eight DAC outputs have a span from 0 V to VREF. If this pin is tied to VLOGIC,
all eight DACs output a span of 0 V to 2 × VREF.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 7. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 6. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 5. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 4. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Device.
Power-On Reset. Tie this pin to GND to power up all eight DACs to zero scale. Tie this pin to VLOGIC to power up all
eight DACs to midscale.
Load DAC. LDAC operates in two modes, asynchronously and synchronously. Pulsing this pin low allows any or all
DAC registers to be updated if the input registers have new data. This allows all DAC outputs to update
simultaneously. This pin can also be tied permanently low.
Serial Data Output. Use this pin to daisy-chain a number of devices together, or use it for readback. The serial data
transfers on the rising edge of SCLK and is valid on the falling edge.
Asynchronous Reset Input. The RESET input is falling edge sensitive. When RESET is low, all LDAC pulses are
ignored. When RESET is activated, the input register and the DAC register are updated with zero scale or midscale,
depending on the state of the RSTSEL pin.
Reference Input Voltage.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 3. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC 2. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
For the DAC, relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity is a
measurement of the maximum deviation, in LSBs, from a straight
line passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
DNL is the difference between the measured change and the
ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes. A specified
DNL of ±1 LSB maximum ensures monotonicity. The AD5676
is guaranteed monotonic by design.
Zero Code Error
Zero code error is a measurement of the output error when zero
code (0x0000) is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the output
is 0 V. The zero code error is always positive because the output
of the DAC cannot go below 0 V due to a combination of the offset
errors in the DAC and the output amplifier. Zero code error is
expressed in mV.
Full-Scale Error
Full-scale error is a measurement of the output error when fullscale code (0xFFFF) is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the
output should be VDD − 1 LSB. Full-scale error is expressed in
percent of full-scale range (% of FSR).
Gain Error
Gain error is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the
deviation in slope of the DAC transfer characteristic from the
ideal expressed as % of FSR.
Offset Error Drift
Offset error drift is a measurement of the change in offset error
with a change in temperature. It is expressed in µV/°C.
Offset Error
Offset error is a measure of the difference between VOUT (actual)
and VOUT (ideal) expressed in mV in the linear region of the
transfer function. Offset error is measured with Code 256
loaded in the DAC register. It can be negative or positive.
DC Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
PSRR indicates how the output of the DAC is affected by changes
in the supply voltage. PSRR is the ratio of the change in VOUT to
the change in VDD for full-scale output of the DAC. It is measured
in mV/V. VREF is held at 2 V, and VDD is varied by ±10%.
Output Voltage Settling Time
Output voltage settling time is the amount of time it takes for the
output of a DAC to settle to a specified level for a ¼ to ¾ full-scale
input change and is measured from the rising edge of SYNC.
Digital-to-Analog Glitch Impulse
Digital-to-analog glitch impulse is the impulse injected into the
analog output when the input code in the DAC register changes
state. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in nV-sec,
and is measured when the digital input code is changed by
1 LSB at the major carry transition (0x7FFF to 0x8000).
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into the
analog output of the DAC from the digital inputs of the DAC,
but is measured when the DAC output is not updated. It is
specified in nV-sec, and measured with a full-scale code change
on the data bus, that is, from all 0s to all 1s and vice versa.
Noise Spectral Density (NSD)
NSD is a measurement of the internally generated random
noise. Random noise is characterized as a spectral density
(nV/√Hz). It is measured by loading the DAC to midscale and
measuring noise at the output. It is measured in nV/√Hz.
DC Crosstalk
DC crosstalk is the dc change in the output level of one DAC in
response to a change in the output of another DAC. It is measured
with a full-scale output change on one DAC (or soft power-down
and power-up) while monitoring another DAC kept at midscale.
It is expressed in μV.
DC crosstalk due to load current change is a measure of the
impact that a change in load current on one DAC has to
another DAC kept at midscale. It is expressed in μV/mA.
Digital Crosstalk
Digital crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC at midscale in response to a full-scale code change
(all 0s to all 1s and vice versa) in the input register of another DAC.
It is measured in standalone mode and is expressed in nV-sec.
Analog Crosstalk
Analog crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC due to a change in the output of another DAC. To
measure analog crosstalk, load one of the input registers with a fullscale code change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa). Then, execute
a software LDAC and monitor the output of the DAC whose digital
code was not changed. The area of the glitch is expressed in nV-sec.
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
DAC-to-DAC crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the
output of one DAC due to a digital code change and subsequent
analog output change of another DAC. It is measured by
loading the attack channel with a full-scale code change (all 0s
to all 1s and vice versa), using the write to and update
commands while monitoring the output of the victim channel
that is at midscale. The energy of the glitch is expressed in nV-sec.

Multiplying Bandwidth
The amplifiers within the DAC have a finite bandwidth. The
multiplying bandwidth is a measure of this. A sine wave on the
reference with full-scale code loaded to the DAC appears on the
output. The multiplying bandwidth is the frequency at which
the output amplitude falls to 3 dB below the input.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the difference between an ideal sine wave and its
attenuated version using the DAC. The sine wave is used as the
reference for the DAC, and the THD is a measurement of the
harmonics present on the DAC output. THD is measured in
decibels.

AD5676
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD5676 is an octal 16-bit, serial input, voltage output DAC.
The device operates from supply voltages of 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Data
is written to the AD5676 in a 24-bit word format via a 3-wire
serial interface. The AD5676 incorporates a power-on reset
circuit to ensure that the DAC output powers up to a known
output state. The device also has a software power-down mode that
reduces the typical current consumption to typically 1 µA.
Figure 42 shows the simplified segmented resistor string DAC
structure. The code loaded to the DAC register determines the
switch on the string that is connected to the output buffer.
Because each resistance in the string has the same value, R, the
string DAC is guaranteed monotonic.
VREF
R
TRANSFER FUNCTION
R
The gain of the output amplifier can be set to ×1 or ×2 using the
gain select pin (GAIN) on the TSSOP package or the gain bit on
the LFCSP package. When the GAIN pin is tied to GND, all eight
DAC outputs have a span from 0 V to VREF. When the GAIN pin
is tied to VLOGIC, all eight DACs output a span of 0 V to 2 × VREF.
When using the LFCSP package, the gain bit in the gain setup
register is used to set the gain of the output amplifier. The gain
bit is 0 by default. When the gain bit is 0 the output span of all
eight DACs is 0 V to VREF. When the gain bit is 1 the output
span of all eight DACs is 0 V to 2 × VREF. The gain bit is ignored
on the TSSOP package.

The DAC architecture implements a segmented string DAC
with an internal output buffer. Figure 41 shows the internal
block diagram.
Output Amplifiers
The output buffer amplifier generates rail-to-rail voltages on its
output, which gives an output range of 0 V to VDD. The actual
range depends on the value of VREF, the gain setting, the offset error,
and the gain error.

SERIAL INTERFACE
Table 9. Command Bit Definitions
The AD5676 has a 3-wire serial interface (SYNC, SCLK, and
SDI) that is compatible with SPI, QSPI™, and MICROWIRE
interface standards as well as most DSPs. See Figure 2 for a
timing diagram of a typical write sequence. The AD5676 contains
an SDO pin that allows the user to daisy chain multiple devices
together (see the Daisy-Chain Operation section) or for readback.
Input Shift Register
The input shift register of the AD5676 is 24 bits wide. Data
is loaded MSB first (DB23), and the first four bits are the
command bits, C3 to C0 (see Table 9), followed by the 4-bit
DAC address bits, A3 to A0 (see Table 10), and finally, the 16bit data-word.
The data-word comprises 16-bit input code, followed by zero, two,
or four don’t care bits. These data bits are transferred to the input
register on the 24 falling edges of SCLK and are updated on the
rising edge of SYNC.
Commands execute on individual DAC channels, combined DAC
channels, or on all DACs, depending on the address bits selected.

STANDALONE OPERATION
AD5676
68HC11*
The write sequence begins by bringing the SYNC line low. Data
from the SDI line is clocked into the 24-bit input shift register
on the falling edge of SCLK. After the last of the 24 data bits is
clocked in, bring SYNC high. The programmed function is then
executed, that is, an LDAC dependent change in the DAC
register contents and/or a change in the mode of operation
occurs.

If SYNC is taken high at a clock before the 24th clock, it is
considered a valid frame, and invalid data may be loaded to the
DAC. Bring SYNC high for a minimum of 9.65 ns (single
channel, see t8 in Table 4) before the next write sequence so that
a falling edge of SYNC can initiate the next write sequence.
Idle SYNC at the rails between write sequences for even lower
power operation. The SYNC line is kept low for 24 falling edges
of SCLK, and the DAC is updated on the rising edge of SYNC.

Command 0010 loads the DAC registers and outputs with the

outputs directly.
Write to and Update DAC Channel n (Independent of LDAC)
Command 0011 allows the user to write to the DAC registers
and updates the DAC outputs directly. Bit D7 to Bit D0
determine which DACs have data from the input register
transferred to the DAC register. Setting a bit to 1 transfers data
from the input register to the appropriate DAC register.
DAISY-CHAIN OPERATION
For systems that contain several DACs, the SDO pin can daisy
chain several devices together and is enabled through a software
executable daisy-chain enable (DCEN) command. Command 1000
is reserved for this DCEN function (see Table 9). The daisy-chain
mode is enabled by setting Bit DB0 in the DCEN register. The
default setting is standalone mode, where DB0 = 0. Table 11
shows how the state of the bit corresponds to the mode of
operation of the device.
*ADDITIONAL PINS OMITTED FOR CLARITY.
Figure 44. Daisy-Chaining the AD5676
The SCLK pin is continuously applied to the input shift register
when SYNC is low. If more than 24 clock pulses are applied, the
data ripples out of the input shift register and appears on the
SDO line. This data is clocked out on the rising edge of SCLK
and is valid on the falling edge. By connecting this line to the
SDI input on the next DAC in the chain, a daisy-chain interface is
constructed. Each DAC in the system requires 24 clock pulses.
Therefore, the total number of clock cycles must equal 24 × N,
where N is the total number of devices updated. If SYNC is
taken high at a clock that is not a multiple of 24, it is considered
a valid frame, and invalid data may be loaded to the DAC.
When the serial transfer to all devices is complete, SYNC goes
high, which latches the input data in each device in the daisy
chain and prevents any further data from being clocked into the
input shift register. The serial clock can be continuous or a gated
clock. If SYNC is held low for the correct number of clock
cycles, a continuous SCLK source is used. In gated clock mode,
use a burst clock containing the exact number of clock cycles,
and take SYNC high after the final clock to latch the data.

READBACK OPERATION
Table 12. Modes of Operation
Readback mode is invoked through a software executable
readback command. If the SDO output is disabled via the daisychain mode disable bit in the control register, it is enabled
automatically for the duration of the read operation, after which
it is disabled again. Command 1001 is reserved for the readback
function. This command, in association with the address bits,
A3 to A0, selects the DAC input register to read. Note that,
during readback, only one DAC register can be selected. The
remaining data bits in the write sequence are don’t care bits.
During the next SPI write, the data appearing on the SDO output
contains the data from the previously addressed register.

Follow this with a second write, a no operation (NOP)
condition, 0x000000. During this write, the data from the

DB19 to DB4 DAC register contents.

Any or all DACs (DAC 0 to DAC 7) power down to the selected
mode by setting the corresponding bits. See Table 13 for the
contents of the input shift register during the power-down/
power-up operation.
When both Bit PD1 and Bit PD0 in the input shift register are set to
0, the device works normally with its normal power consumption
of 1.1 mA typically. However, for the two power-down modes,
the supply current falls to 1 µA typically. Not only does the
supply current fall, but the output stage is also internally switched
from the output of the amplifier to a resistor network of known
values. This has the advantage that the output impedance of the
devices are known while the devices are in power-down mode.
There are two different power-down options. The output is
connected internally to GND through either a 1 kΩ resistor, or
it is left open-circuited (three-state). The output stage is shown in
Figure 45.
When SYNC is high the SDO pin is driven by a weak latch
which holds the last data bit. The SDO pin can be overdriven by
the SDO pin of another device, thus allowing multiple devices
to be read using the same SPI interface.

Command 0100 is designated for the power-down function (see

There are two bits associated with each DAC channel. Table 12

exit power-down is typically 5 µs for VDD = 5 V.

LOAD DAC (HARDWARE LDAC PIN)
LDAC MASK REGISTER
The AD5676 DAC has a double buffered interface consisting of
two banks of registers: input registers and DAC registers. The
user can write to any combination of the input registers.
Updates to the DAC register are controlled by the LDAC pin.
Command 0101 is reserved for this hardware LDAC function.
Address bits are ignored. Writing to the DAC using
Command 0101 loads the 8-bit LDAC register (DB7 to DB0).
The default for each channel is 0; that is, the LDAC pin works
normally. Setting the bits to 1 forces this DAC channel to ignore
transitions on the LDAC pin, regardless of the state of the
hardware LDAC pin. This flexibility is useful in applications
where the user wants to select which channels respond to
the LDAC pin.

LDAC is held low while data is clocked into the input register

the DAC register are updated on the rising edge of SYNC and
the output begins to change (see Table 15).

The LDAC register gives the user extra flexibility and control
over the hardware LDAC pin (see Table 14). Setting the LDAC
bits (DB0 to DB7) to 0 for a DAC channel means that the
update for this channel is controlled by the hardware LDAC pin.
LDAC is held high while data is clocked into the input register
using Command 0001. All DAC outputs are asynchronously
updated by taking LDAC low after SYNC is taken high. The
update occurs on the falling edge of LDAC.

HARDWARE RESET (RESET)
The RESET pin is an active low reset that allows the outputs to
be cleared to either zero scale or midscale. The clear code value
is user selectable via the RESET select pin. It is necessary to keep
the RESET pin low for a minimum time (see Table 4) to complete
the operation (see Figure 2). When the RESET signal is returned
high, the output remains at the cleared value until a new value is
programmed. While the RESET pin is low, the outputs cannot be
updated with a new value. A software executable reset function
is also available that resets the DAC to the power-on reset code.
Command 0110 is designated for this software reset function
(see Table 9). Any events on the LDAC or RESET pins during
power-on reset are ignored.
The RSTSEL pin is only available on the TSSOP package. When
the AD5676 LFCSP package is used the outputs power up to 0 V.
AMPLIFIER GAIN SELECTION ON LFCSP PACKAGE
The output amplifier gain setting for the LFCSP package is
determined by the state of Bit DB2 in the Gain setup register
(see Table 16 and Table 17).

The AD5676 contains a power-on reset circuit that controls the

The Analog Devices ADSP-BF527 has one SPORT serial port.
Figure 49 shows how a SPORT interface controls the AD5676.
The ADP7118 can be used to power the VDD pin. The ADP160
can be used to power the VLOGIC pin. This setup is shown in

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
LAYOUT GUIDELINES
Microprocessor interfacing to the AD5676 is via a serial bus
that uses a standard protocol that is compatible with DSP
processors and microcontrollers. The communications channel
requires a 3-wire or 4-wire interface consisting of a clock signal,
a data signal, and a synchronization signal. The AD5676 requires a
24-bit data-word with data valid on the rising edge of SYNC.
In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful consideration of
the power supply and ground return layout helps to ensure the
rated performance. Design the printed circuit board (PCB) on
which the AD5676 is mounted so that the AD5676 lies on the
analog plane.
AD5676 TO ADSP-BF531 INTERFACE
The SPI interface of the AD5676 can easily connect to industrystandard DSPs and microcontrollers. Figure 48 shows the
AD5676 connected to the Analog Devices, Inc. Blackfin® DSP.
The Blackfin has an integrated SPI port that can connect
directly to the SPI pins of the AD5676.
In systems where many devices are on one board, it is often useful
to provide some heat sinking capability to allow the power to
dissipate easily.

The AD5676 must have ample supply bypassing of 10 μF in

as possible, ideally right up against the device. The 10 μF
capacitors are the tantalum bead type. The 0.1 μF capacitor
must have low effective series resistance (ESR) and low effective
series inductance (ESI), such as the common ceramic types, which
provide a low impedance path to ground at high frequencies to
handle transient currents due to internal logic switching.

CONTROLLER
In many process control applications, it is necessary to provide
an isolation barrier between the controller and the unit being
controlled to protect and isolate the controlling circuitry from
any hazardous common-mode voltages that may occur. iCoupler®
products from Analog Devices provide voltage isolation in excess
of 2.5 kV. The serial loading structure of the AD5676 makes the
device ideal for isolated interfaces because the number of interface
lines is kept to a minimum. Figure 51 shows a 4-channel
