DIN: The Serial Interface Data. CS/LD: The Serial Interface Enable and Load Control. When CS/LD is low the CLK signal is enabled, so the data can be clocked in. When CS/LD is pulled high data is loaded from the shift register into the DAC registers, updating the DAC outputs. DOUT: The output of the shift register which becomes valid on the rising edge of the serial clock. GND: Ground. VOUT A,VOUT B: Buffered DAC Outputs.

It defines the number of DAC output states (2n) that divide the full-scale range. The resolution does not imply linearity. LTC1446 LSB = 4.095V/4095 = 1mV LTC1446L LSB = 2.5V/4095 = 0.610mV Zero Scale Error (ZSE) This is the output of the DAC when all bits are set to one. The output voltage when the DAC is loaded with all zeros. Since this is a single supply part this value cannot be less than 0V. Voltage Offset Error (VOS) Integral Nonlinearity (INL) The theoretical voltage at the output when the DAC is loaded with all zeros. The output amplifier can have a true negative offset, but because the part is operated from a single supply, the output cannot go below zero. If the offset is negative, the output will remain near 0V resulting in the transfer curve shown in Figure 1. End-point INL is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the end points of the DAC transfer curve. Because the part operates from a single supply and the output cannot go below 0, the linearity is measured between full scale and the code corresponding to the maximum offset specification. The INL error at a given input code is calculated as follows : Full-Scale Voltage (VFS) OUTPUT VOLTAGE NEGATIVE OFFSET 0V INL = [VOUT – VOS – (VFS – VOS)(Code/4095)]/LSB VOUT = the output voltage of the DAC measured at the given input code DAC CODE 1446/46L F01 Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) Figure 1. Effect of Negative Offset The offset of the part is measured at the code that corresponds to the maximum offset specification: VOS = VOUT – [(Code)(VFS)/(2n – 1)] Least Significant Bit (LSB) One LSB is the ideal voltage difference between two successive codes. DNL is the difference between the measured change and the ideal 1LSB change between any two adjacent codes. The DNL error between any two codes is calculated as follows: DNL = (∆VOUT – LSB)/LSB ∆VOUT = The measured voltage difference between two adjacent codes LSB = (VFS – VOS)/(2n – 1) = (VFS – VOS)/4095 7 LTC1446/LTC1446L U OPERATIO Serial Interface Voltage Output The data on the DIN input is loaded into the shift register on the rising edge of the clock. Data is loaded as one 24bit word where the first 12 bits are for DAC A and the second 12 are for DAC B. For each 12-bit segment the MSB is loaded first. Data from the shift register is loaded into the DAC register when CS/LD is pulled high. The clock is disabled internally when CS/LD is high. Note: CLK must be low before CS/LD is pulled low to avoid an extra internal clock pulse. The LTC1446/LTC1446L include an internal voltage reference which is connected to each DAC. The LTC1446 has a full scale of 4.095V making 1LSB equal to 1mV. The LTC1446L has a full scale of 2.5V making 1LSB equal to 0.61mV. The buffered output of the 24-bit shift register is available on the DOUT pin which swings from GND to VCC. Multiple LTC1446/LTC1446L’s may be daisy-chained together by connecting the DOUT pin to the DIN pin of the next chip, while the clock and CS/LD signals remain common to all chips in the daisy chain. The serial data is clocked to all of the chips, then the CS/LD signal is pulled high to update all of them simultaneously. 8 The LTC1446/LTC1446L rail-to-rail buffered outputs can source or sink 5mA when operating with a 5V supply while pulling to within 300mV of the positive supply voltage or ground. The outputs swing to within a few millivolts of either supply rail when unloaded and have an equivalent output resistance of 40Ω when driving a load to the rails. The buffer amplifiers can drive 1000pF without going into oscillation. LTC1446/LTC1446L U TYPICAL APPLICATIONS N This circuit shows how to use an LTC1446 and an LT ®1077 to make a wide bipolar output swing 12-bit DAC with an offset that can be digitally programmed. VOUT A, which can be set by loading the appropriate digital code for DAC A, sets the offset. As this value changes, the transfer curve for the output moves up and down as illustrated in the graph below.

The microprocessor sets the reference span and the Common pin for the analog input by loading the appropriate digital code into the LTC1446. VOUT A controls the Common pin for the analog inputs to the LTC1296 and VOUT B controls the reference span by setting the REF + pin on the LTC1296. The LTC1296 has a Shutdown pin that goes low in shutdown mode. This will turn off the PNP transistor supplying power to the LTC1446. The resistor and capacitor on the LTC1446 outputs act as a lowpass filter for noise.
