CIRCUIT FUNCTION AND BENEFITS
The circuit shown in Figure 1 provides a full function, flexible,
programmable analog output solution that meets most
requirements for programmable logic controller (PLC) and
distributed control system (DCS) applications. The AD5662 low
power (0.75 mW @ 5 V), rail-to-rail output, 16-bit nanoDAC®
converter and the AD5750 industrial current/voltage output
driver are well matched with respect to input and output voltage
ranges, as well as reference voltage requirements. The ADR444
The circuit also contains key features for industrial
applications, such as on-chip output fault detection and
protection (short circuit, undervoltage output, open circuit
current output, and overtemperature), CRC checking to
prevent packet error (PEC), and flexible power-up options,
making it an ideal choice for robust industrial control systems.

Devices for PLC and DCS applications generally need ESD
protection and overvoltage protection much higher than the
formal recommend specifications. The AD5750 has integrated
ESD protection diodes internal to each pin that can prevent
damage from a 3 kV transient (Human Body Model). However,
the industrial control environment can subject I/O circuits to
much higher transients. External 30 V, 600 W transient voltage
suppressors (TVS), a 50 mA, 30 V PolySwitch, and power
Schottky diodes are built into the EVAL-CN0202-SDPZ circuit
board to provide higher voltage ESD protection, 50 mA
overcurrent, and 30 V overvoltage protection. The optional
external protection circuits are not shown in the simplified
schematic of Figure 1 but can be found in the detailed schematic
(EVAL-CN0202-SDPZ-SCH pdf file) in the CN0202 Design
Support package: www.analog.com/CN0202-DesignSupport.

The AD5662 is a single channel, low cost, low power, rail-to-rail
voltage buffered output nanoDAC® device. The AD5662
guarantees ±1 LSB DNL under a wide range of reference
voltages that can vary from 0.75 V to the VDD supply so that the
AD5750 and the AD5662 can operate from a common reference
source of 4.096 V, provided by the ADR444. The whole system
will benefit from the ultralow noise and low temperature
coefficient of ADR444. The ADR44x family of references are
ideal for driving either the reference or the power input of
converters because they can source and sink current. The
AD5662 also incorporates a power-on reset circuit to ensure
that the DAC output powers up to either midscale or zero and
remains there until a valid write takes place.
Integral nonlinearity (INL), differential nonlinearity (DNL),
and output error are the most important specifications for PLC,
DCS, and other process control systems. The AD5750 has
highly flexible and configurable output ranges that can be
tailored to meet the needs of the application. Measurements of
INL, DNL, and output error for the circuit are shown in Figure 2,
Figure 3, and Figure 4, respectively. This data was taken at 25°C
in the 0 V to 5 V voltage output mode. The test results for all the
other ranges are listed in Table 1.

The current output, which is provided on a separate pin, can be
programmed for the ranges of 4 mA to 20 mA, 0 mA to 20 mA,
−20 mA to +20 mA, 0 mA to 24 mA, and −24 mA to +24 mA.
The unipolar ranges have a 2% overrange setting. Because the
AD5750/AD5750-1 current output can either source or sink
current, it can interface to a wide variety of sensors or actuators.
The voltage and current output pins can be tied together to
configure the end system as a single-channel output if desired.

The AD5750/AD5750-1 are both single-channel, low cost,
precision voltage/current output drivers developed to meet the
requirements of industrial process control applications. The
voltage output range can be programmed for the standard
output ranges for PLC and DCS applications: 0 V to 5 V, 0 V to
10 V, −5 V to +5 V, and −10 V to +10 V. A 20% overrange
setting is also provided for the standard ranges, giving the
following options: 0 V to 6 V, 0 V to 12 V, −6 V to +6 V, and
−12 V to +12 V.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The circuit must be constructed on a multilayer PC board with
a large area ground plane. Proper layout, grounding, and
decoupling techniques must be used to achieve optimum
performance (see Tutorial MT-031, Grounding Data Converters
and Solving the Mystery of "AGND" and "DGND," and Tutorial
MT-101, Decoupling Techniques).
DNL (LSB)
are needed to maintain consistent performance in mass
production, thereby making it ideal for PLC or DCS modules.

COMMON VARIATIONS
Getting Started
Load the evaluation software by placing the CN0202 Evaluation
Software disc in the CD drive of the PC. Using My Computer,
locate the drive that contains the evaluation software disc and
open the Readme file. Follow the instructions contained in the
Readme file for installing and using the evaluation software.
This circuit describes one implementation of a family of driver
and DAC products, from which various devices can be selected
to achieve desired performance. 12-bit to 16-bit resolution is
the regular requirement for PLC and DCS applications. For
applications not requiring 16-bit resolution, the AD5620
(12-bit), and AD5640 (14-bit) are available, but have internal
references.
Functional Block Diagram
Figure 5 shows a functional block diagram of the test setup. The
pdf file “EVAL-CN0202-SDPZ-SCH” contains the detailed
circuit schematics for the CN-0202 evaluation board. This file
is contained in the CN-0202 Design Support Package:
www.analog.com/CN0202-DesignSupport.
For multichannel applications, the AD5623R (12-bit), AD5643R
(14-bit), and AD5663R (16-bit) are dual nanoDAC devices, and
the AD5624R (12-bit), AD5644R (14-bit), and AD5664R (16bit) are quad nanoDAC devices.
The AD5750-1 driver is pin-compatible with the AD5750 and
can accept a 0 V to 2.5 V input range when used with a 1.25 V
reference. The AD5751 is a unipolar analog output driver and
can supply a 40 V output using a 50 V AVDD supply.
Setup
Connect the 120-pin connector on the EVAL-CN0202-SDPZ
circuit board to the connector marked “CON A” or “CON B” on
the EVAL-SDP-CB1Z evaluation (SDP) board. Nylon hardware
should be used to firmly secure the two boards, using the
holes provided at the ends of the 120-pin connectors. After
successfully setting the dc output supply to +15 V, −15 V and
+6 V output, turn the power supply off.

After setting up the test equipment, connect the pin of CN3
marked “VOUT” or the pin of CN4 marked “IOUT” to the
input of the Agilent 34401A. Make sure that the cable
connection on the front panel of the Agilent 34401A is correct,
depending on the different input signal type (current or
voltage). Testing the INL, DNL, and total error will take a
considerable amount of time because all of the AD5660-1 16-bit
DAC levels must be set and measured by the 34401A.
CN-0202 Design Support Package:
http://www.analog.com/CN0202-DesignSupport
The software provided on the CD allows the DAC codes to be
set by the PC. An automatic test program is necessary to step
through the codes and analyze the data. This is not provided
on the CD but must be implemented by the customer to
correspond to the requirements of the particular multimeter
used in the test setup.
In the test configuration shown in Figure 5, the GPIB output of
the 34401A multimeter interfaces to a second USB port on the
PC using the National Instruments GPIB to USB-B interface
and cable. This allows the multimeter readings corresponding
to each code to be loaded into an Excel spreadsheet on the PC.
The data is then analyzed for INL, DNL, and total error using
industry-standard definitions.
For more details on the definitions and how to calculate the
INL, DNL, and total error from the measured data, see the
"TERMINOLOGY" section of the AD5662 data sheet and also

Data Converters," Chapter 5, Analog Devices.
