Description
2.7 V to 5.5 V quad, 12-, 14-,
16-bit DACs with internal
reference
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5624/AD5664, members of the nanoDAC family, are
low power, quad, 12-, 16-bit buffered voltage-out DACs that
operate from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply and are guaranteed
monotonic by design.
The AD5624/AD5664 use a versatile 3-wire serial interface that
operates at clock rates up to 50 MHz, and are compatible with
standard SPI®, QSPI™, MICROWIRE™, and DSP interface
standards.
The AD5624/AD5664 require an external reference voltage to
set the output range of the DAC. The part incorporates a poweron reset circuit that ensures the DAC output powers up to 0 V
and remains there until a valid write takes place. The parts
contain a power-down feature that reduces the current
consumption of the device to 480 nA at 5 V and provides
software-selectable output loads while in power-down mode.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The low power consumption of these parts in normal operation
makes them ideally suited to portable battery-operated
equipment. The power consumption is 2.25 mW at 5 V, going
down to 2.4 μW in power-down mode.
1.
Relative accuracy: ±12 LSBs maximum.
2.
Available in 10-lead MSOP and 10-lead, 3 mm × 3 mm,
LFCSP_WD.
3.
Low power, typically consumes 1.32 mW at 3 V and
2.25 mW at 5 V.
4.
Maximum settling time of 4.5 μs (AD5624) and 7 μs
(AD5664).
The AD5624/AD5664 on-chip precision output amplifier allows
rail-to-rail output swing to be achieved.

Analog Output Voltage from DAC C. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Analog Output Voltage from DAC D. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Active Low Control Input. This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When SYNC goes low, it
powers on the SCLK and DIN buffers and enables the input shift register. Data is transferred in on the falling edges
of the next 24 clocks. If SYNC is taken high before the 24th falling edge, the rising edge of SYNC acts as an interrupt
and the write sequence is ignored by the device.
Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input. Data can
be transferred at rates up to 50 MHz.
Serial Data Input. This device has a 24-bit input shift register. Data is clocked into the register on the falling edge of
the serial clock input.
Power Supply Input. These parts can be operated from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The supply should be decoupled with a 10 μF
capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 μF capacitor to GND.
Reference Voltage Input.

AD5624/AD5664
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. A typical INL vs. code plot can be seen in Figure 4
and Figure 5.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
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. This DAC is guaranteed monotonic by
design. A typical DNL vs. code plot can be seen in Figure 6 and
Figure 7.
Zero-Scale Error
Zero-scale error is a measurement of the output error when
zero code (0x0000) is loaded to the DAC register. Ideally, the
output should be 0 V. The zero-code error is always positive in
the AD5624/AD5664 because the output of the DAC cannot go
below 0 V. It is due to a combination of the offset errors in the
DAC and the output amplifier. Zero-code error is expressed in
mV. A plot of zero-code error vs. temperature can be seen in
Figure 12.
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 %
of FSR. A plot of full-scale error vs. temperature can be seen in
Figure 11.
Gain Error
This is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the
deviation in slope of the DAC transfer characteristic from ideal
expressed as a % of FSR.
Zero-Code Error Drift
This is a measurement of the change in zero-code error with a
change in temperature. It is expressed in μV/°C.
Gain Temperature Coefficient
This is a measurement of the change in gain error with changes
in temperature. It is expressed in ppm of FSR/°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 on the AD5624/
AD5664 with code 512 loaded in the DAC register. It can be
negative or positive.
DC Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
This 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
a change in VDD for full-scale output of the DAC. It is measured
in dB. VREF is held at 2 V, and VDD is varied by ±10%.
Output Voltage Settling Time
This 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 24th falling edge of SCLK.
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-s,
and is measured when the digital input code is changed by
1 LSB at the major carry transition (0x7FFF to 0x8000) as
shown in Figure 22.
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-s, and measured with a full-scale code change
on the data bus, that is, from all 0s to all 1s and vice versa.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
This 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. It is measured in dB.
Noise Spectral Density
This 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. A plot
of noise spectral density can be seen in Figure 27.
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.
Rev. 0 | Page 13 of 24
AD5624/AD5664
Digital Crosstalk
This 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-s.
Analog Crosstalk
This is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC
due to a change in the output of another DAC. It is measured by
loading one of the input registers with a full-scale 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-s (see
Figure 23).
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
This 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 command write to and update while
monitoring the output of the victim channel that is at midscale.
The energy of the glitch is expressed in nV-s.
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.

THEORY OF OPERATION
D/A SECTION
R
The AD5624/AD5664 DACs are fabricated on a CMOS process.
The architecture consists of a string DAC followed by an output

where:
D is the decimal equivalent of the binary code that is loaded to
the DAC register:
0 to 4095 for AD5624 (12 bit).
0 to 65535 for AD5664 (16 bit).
N is the DAC resolution.
RESISTOR STRING
The resistor string is shown in Figure 30. It is simply a string of
resistors, each of value R. The code loaded to the DAC register
determines at which node on the string the voltage is tapped off
to be fed into the output amplifier. The voltage is tapped off by
closing one of the switches connecting the string to the
amplifier. Because it is a string of resistors, it is guaranteed
monotonic.
OUTPUT AMPLIFIER
The output buffer amplifier can generate rail-to-rail voltages on
its output, which gives an output range of 0 V to VDD. It can drive
a load of 2 kΩ in parallel with 1000 pF to GND. The source and
sink capabilities of the output amplifier can be seen in Figure 17.
The slew rate is 1.8 V/μs with a ¼ to ¾ full-scale settling time of
7 μs.
The AD5624/AD5664 have a 3-wire serial interface (SYNC,
SCLK, and DIN) that is compatible with SPI, QSPI, and
MICROWIRE interface standards as well as with most DSPs.
See Figure 2 for a timing diagram of a typical write sequence.
The write sequence begins by bringing the SYNC line low. Data
from the DIN line is clocked into the 24-bit shift register on the
falling edge of SCLK. The serial clock frequency can be as high
as 50 MHz, making the AD5624/AD5664 compatible with high
speed DSPs. On the 24th falling clock edge, the last data bit is
clocked in and the programmed function is executed, that is, a
change in DAC register contents and/or a change in the mode
of operation. At this stage, the SYNC line can be kept low or be
brought high. In either case, it must be brought high for a
minimum of 15 ns before the next write sequence so that a
falling edge of SYNC can initiate the next write sequence. Since
the SYNC buffer draws more current when VIN = 2.0 V than it
does when VIN = 0.8 V, SYNC should be idled low between
write sequences for even lower power operation. It must,
however, be brought high again just before the next write
sequence.

AD5624/AD5664
INPUT SHIFT REGISTER
SYNC INTERRUPT
The input shift register is 24 bits wide The first two bits are
don’t care bits. The next three bits are the Command bits, C2 to
C0 (see Table 7), followed by the 3-bit DAC address, A2 to A0
(see Table 8), and then the 16-, 12-bit data-word. The data-word
comprises the 16-, 12- bit input code followed by 0 or 4 don’t
care bits for the AD5664 and AD5624 respectively (see Figure
31 and Figure 32). These data bits are transferred to the DAC
register on the 24th falling edge of SCLK.
In a normal write sequence, the SYNC line is kept low for at least
24 falling edges of SCLK, and the DAC is updated on the 24th
falling edge. However, if SYNC is brought high before the 24th
falling edge, then this acts as an interrupt to the write sequence.
The input shift register is reset and the write sequence is seen as
invalid. Neither an update of the DAC register contents nor a
change in the operating mode occurs (see Figure 33).

The AD5624/AD5664 family contains a power-on reset circuit
that controls the output voltage during power-up. The AD5624/
AD5664 DAC outputs power up to 0 V and the output remains
there until a valid write sequence is made to the DAC. This is
useful in applications where it is important to know the state of
the output of the DAC while it is in the process of powering up.

SOFTWARE RESET
Table 10. Modes of Operation for the AD5624/AD5664
The AD5624/AD5664 contain a software reset function.
Command 110 is reserved for the software reset function (see
Table 7). The software reset command contains two reset modes
that are software programmable by setting Bit DB0 in the
control register. Table 9 shows how the state of the bit
corresponds to the software reset modes of operation of the
devices.

When both bits are set to 0, the parts work normally with their
normal power consumption of 450 μA at 5 V. However, for the
three power-down modes, the supply current falls to 480 nA at
5 V (200 nA at 3 V). 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 allows
the output impedance of the part to be known while the part is
in power-down mode.

The outputs can either be connected internally to GND through
a 1 kΩ or 100 kΩ resistor, or left open-circuited (three-state)
(see Figure 34).
POWER-DOWN MODES
The AD5624/AD5664 contain four separate modes of operation.
Command 100 is reserved for the power-down function (see
Table 7). These modes are software programmable by setting two
bits (DB5 and DB4) in the control register. Table 10 shows how
the state of the bits corresponds to the mode of operation of the
device. All DACs (DAC D to DAC A) can be powered down to
the selected mode by setting the corresponding four bits (DB3,
DB2, DB1, and DB0) to 1. By executing the same Command 100,
any combination of DACs is powered up by setting Bit DB5 and
Bit DB4 to normal operation mode. To select which combination
of DAC channels to power-up, set the corresponding four bits
(DB3, DB2, DB1, and DB0) to 1. See Table 11 for contents of the
input shift register during the power-down/power-up operation.

AD5624/AD5664
LDAC FUNCTION
The AD5624/AD5664 DACs have double-buffered interfaces
consisting of two banks of registers: input registers and DAC
registers. The input registers are connected directly to the input
shift register and the digital code is transferred to the relevant
input register on completion of a valid write sequence. The
DAC registers contain the digital code used by the resistor
strings.
The double-buffered interface is useful if the user requires
simultaneous updating of all DAC outputs. The user can write
to three of the input registers individually and then write to the
remaining input register and update all DAC registers, the
outputs update simultaneously. Command 010 is reserved for
this software LDAC.
Access to the DAC registers is controlled by the LDAC
function. The LDAC registers contain two modes of operation
for each DAC channel. The DAC channels are selected by
setting the bits of the 4-bit LDAC register (DB3, DB2, DB1, and
DB0). Command 110 is reserved for setting up the LDAC
register. When the LDAC bit register is set low, the
corresponding DAC registers are latched and the input
registers can change state without affecting the contents of the
DAC registers. When the LDAC bit register is set high,
however, the DAC registers become transparent and the
contents of the input registers are transferred to them on the
falling edge of the 24th SCLK pulse. This is equivalent to having
an LDAC hardware pin tied permanently low for the selected
DAC channel, that is, synchronous update mode. See Table 12
for the LDAC register mode of operation. See Table 13 for
contents of the input shift register during the LDAC register setup command.
This flexibility is useful in applications where the user wants to
update select channels simultaneously, while the rest of the
channels update synchronously.

AD5624/AD5664 to 80C51/80L51 Interface
AD5624/AD5664 to Blackfin® ADSP-BF53x Interface
Figure 37 shows a serial interface between the AD5624/AD5664
and the 80C51/80L51 microcontroller. The setup for the interface
is as follows. TxD of the 80C51/80L51 drives SCLK of the
AD5624/AD5664, while RxD drives the serial data line of the
part. The SYNC signal is derived from a bit-programmable pin
on the port. In this case, port line P3.3 is used. When data is
transmitted to the AD5624/AD5664, P3.3 is taken low. The
80C51/80L51 transmits data in 10-bit bytes only; thus only eight
falling clock edges occur in the transmit cycle. To load data to the
DAC, P3.3 is left low after the first eight bits are transmitted, and
a second write cycle is initiated to transmit the second byte of
data. P3.3 is taken high following the completion of this cycle.
The 80C51/80L51 output the serial data in a format that has the
LSB first. The AD5624/AD5664 must receive data with the MSB
first. The 80C51/80L51 transmit routine should take this into
account.

The SYNC signal is derived from a port line (PC7). The setup

The 68HC11/68L11 is configured with its CPOL bit as a 0 and
its CPHA bit as a 1. When data is being transmitted to the DAC,
the SYNC line is taken low (PC7). When the 68HC11/68L11 is
configured as described previously, data appearing on the MOSI
output is valid on the falling edge of SCK. Serial data from the
68HC11/68L11 is transmitted in 10-bit bytes with only eight
falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. Data is
transmitted MSB first. To load data to the AD5624/AD5664,
PC7 is left low after the first eight bits are transferred, and a
second serial write operation is performed to the DAC; PC7 is
taken high at the end of this procedure.

APPLICATIONS
CHOOSING A REFERENCE FOR THE
AD5624/AD5664
USING A REFERENCE AS A POWER SUPPLY FOR
THE AD5624/AD5664
To achieve the optimum performance from the AD5624/
AD5664, thought should be given to the choice of a precision
voltage reference. The AD5624/AD5664 have only one
reference input, VREF. The voltage on the reference input is used
to supply the positive input to the DAC. Therefore, any error in
the reference is reflected in the DAC.
Because the supply current required by the AD5624/AD5664 is
extremely low, an alternative option is to use a voltage reference
to supply the required voltage to the part (see Figure 39). This is
especially useful if the power supply is quite noisy, or if the
system supply voltages are at some value other than 5 V or 3 V,
for example, 15 V. The voltage reference outputs a steady supply
voltage for the AD5624/AD5664 (see Table 14 for a suitable
reference). If the low dropout REF195 is used, it must supply
450 μA of current to the AD5624/AD5664, with no load on the
output of the DAC. When the DAC output is loaded, the
REF195 also needs to supply the current to the load. The total
current required (with a 5 kΩ load on the DAC output) is
When choosing a voltage reference for high accuracy applications, the sources of error are initial accuracy, ppm drift, longterm drift, and output voltage noise. Initial accuracy on the
output voltage of the DAC leads to a full-scale error in the DAC.
To minimize these errors, a reference with high initial accuracy
is preferred. Choosing a reference with an output trim
adjustment, such as the ADR423, allows a system designer to
trim out system errors by setting a reference voltage to a voltage
other than the nominal. The trim adjustment can also be used
at temperature to trim out any error.
450 μA + (5 V/5 kΩ) = 1.45 mA
The load regulation of the REF195 is typically 2 ppm/mA,
which results in a 2.9 ppm (14.5 μV) error for the 1.45 mA
current drawn from it. This corresponds to a 0.191 LSB error.
Long-term drift is a measurement of how much the reference
drifts over time. A reference with a tight long-term drift
specification ensures that the overall solution remains relatively
stable during its entire lifetime.
In high accuracy applications, which have a relatively low noise
budget, reference output voltage noise needs to be considered. It
is important to choose a reference with as low an output noise
voltage as practical for the system noise resolution required.
Precision voltage references such as the ADR425 produce low
output noise in the 0.1 Hz to10 Hz range. Examples of recommended precision references for use as supply to the
AD5624/AD5664 are shown in the Table 14.

The temperature coefficient of a reference’s output voltage
affects INL, DNL, and TUE. A reference with a tight temperature
coefficient specification should be chosen to reduce temperature
dependence of the DAC output voltage in ambient conditions.

The AD5624/AD5664 have been designed for single-supply
operation, but a bipolar output range is also possible using the
circuit in Figure 40. The circuit gives an output voltage range of
±5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the amplifier output is achievable
using an AD820 or an OP295 as the output amplifier.

POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING AND GROUNDING
When accuracy is important in a circuit, it is helpful to consider
carefully the power supply and ground return layout on the
board. The printed circuit board containing the AD5624/
AD5664 should have separate analog and digital sections, each
having its own area of the board. If the AD5624/AD5664 is in a
system where other devices require an AGND-to-DGND
connection, the connection should be made at one point only.
This ground point should be as close as possible to the
AD5624/AD5664.

USING AD5624/AD5664 WITH A
GALVANICALLY ISOLATED INTERFACE
In process control applications in industrial environments, it is
often necessary to use a galvanically isolated interface to protect
and isolate the controlling circuitry from any hazardous
common-mode voltages that might occur in the area where the
DAC is functioning. Isocouplers provide isolation in excess of
3 kV. The AD5624/AD5664 use a 3-wire serial logic interface,
so the ADuM130x 3-channel digital isolator provides the
required isolation (see Figure 41). The power supply to the part
also needs to be isolated, which is done by using a transformer.
On the DAC side of the transformer, a 5 V regulator provides
the 5 V supply required for the AD5624/AD5664.
The power supply to the AD5624/AD5664 should be bypassed
with 10 μF and 0.1 μF capacitors. The capacitors should be
located as close as possible to the device, with the 0.1 μF capacitor
ideally right up against the device. The 10 μF capacitor is the
tantalum bead type. It is important that the 0.1 μF capacitor has
low effective series resistance (ESR) and effective series
inductance (ESI), for example, common ceramic types of
capacitors. This 0.1 μF capacitor provides a low impedance path
to ground for high frequencies caused by transient currents due
to internal logic switching.
The power supply line itself should have as large a trace as
possible to provide a low impedance path and to reduce glitch
effects on the supply line. Clocks and other fast switching
digital signals should be shielded from other parts of the board
by digital ground. Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals
if possible. When traces cross on opposite sides of the board,
ensure that they run at right angles to each other to reduce
feedthrough effects through the board. The best board layout
technique is the microstrip technique where the component
side of the board is dedicated to the ground plane only and the
signal traces are placed on the solder side. However, this is not
always possible with a 2-layer board.
