DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®1588/LTC1589/LTC1592 are serial input 12-/14/16-bit multiplying current output DACs that operates
from a single 5V supply. These SoftSpanTM DACs can be
software-programmed for either unipolar or bipolar mode
through a 3-wire SPI interface. In either mode, the voltage
output range can also be software-programmed. Two
output ranges in unipolar mode and four output ranges in
bipolar mode are available.
Six Programmable Output Ranges
Unipolar Mode: 0V to 5V, 0V to 10V
Bipolar Mode: ±5V, ±10V, ±2.5V, – 2.5V to 7.5V
1LSB Max DNL and INL Over the Industrial
Temperature Range
Glitch Impulse < 2nV-s
16-Lead SSOP Package
Power-On Reset to 0V
Asynchronous Clear to 0V for All Ranges
INL and DNL are accurate to 1LSB over the industrial
temperature range in both unipolar and bipolar modes.
True 16-bit 4-quadrant multiplication is achieved with
on-chip four quadrant multiplication resistors. The
LTC1588/LTC1589/LTC1592 are available in a 16-lead
SSOP package.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: ±1LSB = ±0.0015% of full scale = ±15.3ppm of full scale
(LTC1592). ±1LSB = ±0.006% of full scale = ±61.2ppm of full scale
(LTC1589). ±1LSB = 0.024% of full scale = ±244.8ppm of full scale
(LTC1588).
Note 3: Using internal feedback resistor.
Note 4: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 5: IOUT1 with DAC register loaded to all 0s.
Note 6: Typical temperature coefficient is 100ppm/°C.
Note 7: To 0.0015% for a full-scale change, measured from the falling
edge of LD for the LTC1592 only.
Note 8: REF = 6VRMS at 1kHz. DAC register loaded with all 1s. Output
amplifier = LT1468.
●
Note 9: Calculation from en = √4kTRB where: k = Boltzmann constant
(1.38E-23 J/°K); R = resistance (Ω); T = temperature (°K); B = bandwidth
(Hz).
Note 10: Midscale transition code: 32767 to 32768 for the LTC1592, 8191
to 8192 for the LTC1589, 2047 to 2048 for the LTC1588.
Note 11: R1 and R2 are measured between R1 and RCOM, R2 and RCOM.
Note 12: If a continuous clock is used with data changing on the rising
edge of SCK, setup and hold time (t1, t2) will limit the maximum clock
frequency. If data changes on the falling edge of SCK then the setup time
will limit the maximum clock frequency to 8MHz (continuous 50% duty
cycle clock).
Note 13: SDO propagation delay and SDI setup time (t8, t1) limit the
maximum clock frequency for daisy chaining.

RCOM (Pin 1): Center Tap Point of the Two Bipolar Resistors R1 and R2. Normally tied to the inverting input of an
external amplifier. When these resistors are not used,
connect this pin to ground. The absolute maximum voltage range on this pin is – 0.3V to 12V.
ROFS (Pin 3): Bipolar Offset Network. This pin provides the
offset of the output voltage range for bipolar modes.
Accepts up to ±15V. Normally tied to R1 and the reference
input voltage VREF (5V). Alternatively, this pin may be
driven from a different voltage than VREF.
R1 (Pin 2): Bipolar Resistor R1. The main reference input
VREF, typically 5V. Accepts up to ±15V. Normally tied to
ROFS (Pin 3) and the reference input voltage VREF (5V).
When not used connect this pin to ground.
RFB (Pin 4): Feedback Network. Normally tied to the output

Serial Interface
When the CS/LD is brought to a logic low, the data on the
SDI input is loaded into the shift register on the rising edge
of the clock. A 4-bit command word (C3 C2 C1 C0),
followed by four “don’t care” bits and 16 data bits
(MSB-first) is the minimum loading sequence required for
the LTC1588/LTC1589/LTC1592. When the CS/LD is
brought to a logic high, the clock is disabled internally and
the command word is executed.
If no daisy-chaining is required, the input stream can be
24-bit wide as shown in Figure 1a. The first four bits are the
command word, followed by four “don’t care” bits, then a
16-bit data word. The last four bits (LSBs) of this 16-bit
data word are don’t cares for the LTC1588. For the
LTC1589, the last 2 bits of the 16-bit data word are don’t
cares.
If daisy-chaining is required or the input needs to be
written in two 16-bit wide segments, then the input stream
must be 32-bit wide and the first 8 bits loaded are “don’t
care” bits. The remaining bits work the same as a 24-bit
stream which is described in the previous paragraph. The
output of the internal 32-bit shift register is available on the
SDO pin 32 clock cycles later.
Multiple LTC1588/LTC1589/LTC1592s may be daisychained together by connecting the SDO pin to the SDI pin
of the next IC. The clock and CS/LD signals should remain
common to all ICs in the daisy-chain. The serial data is
clocked to all ICs, then the CS/LD signal is pulled high to
update all of them simultaneously.
Power-On Reset and Clear
When the power supply is first turned on, the LTC1588/
LTC1589/LTC1592 will power up in 5V unipolar mode (C3
C2 C1 C0 = 1000). All the internal registers are set to zeros
and the DAC is set to zero code.
The LTC1588/LTC1589/LTC1592 must first be programmed in either unipolar or bipolar mode. There are six
operating modes available and can be software-programmed by the command word. When a CLR signal is
brought to low, it clears all internal registers to zero. The
DAC output voltage goes to zero volts. If an update DAC
command (C3 C2 C1 C0 = 0001) is issued immediately
after the CLR signal, the DAC output remains at zero volts.
If a CLR signal is given within a 100ns interval immediately
after CS/LD goes high, the user should reload the output
range.
Output Range Programming
There are two output ranges available in unipolar mode
and four output ranges available in bipolar mode. See
Function Table for details. All output ranges are with respect to a 5V reference input. When changing the LTC1588/
LTC1589/LTC1592 to a new mode, the command word
and data are given at the same time (24 or 32 bit). When

goes to a value corresponding to the data code.
Examples using the LTC1592:
1. Using a 24-bit loading sequence, load the unipolar
range of 0V to 10V with the DAC output at zero volt:
3. Using a 32-bit load sequence, load the bipolar range of

Op Amp Selection
Because of the extremely high accuracy of the 16-bit
LTC1592, careful thought should be given to op amp
selection in order to achieve the exceptional performance
of which the part is capable. Fortunately, the sensitivity of
INL and DNL to op amp offset has been greatly reduced
compared to previous generations of multiplying DACs.
Tables 2 and 3 contain equations for evaluating the effects
of op amp parameters on the LTC1592’s accuracy when
programmed in a unipolar or bipolar output range. These
are the changes the op amp can cause to the INL, DNL,
unipolar offset, unipolar gain error, bipolar zero and bipolar gain error. Tables 2 and 3 can also be used to determine
the effects of op amp parameters on the LTC1589 and the
LTC1588. However, the results obtained from Tables 2
and 3 are in 16-bit LSBs. Divide these results by 4
(LTC1589) and 16 (LTC1588) to obtain the correct LSB
sizing.
Table 4 contains a partial list of LTC precision op amps
recommended for use with the LTC1592. The easy-to-use
design equations simplify the selection of op amps to meet
the system’s specified error budget. Select the amplifier
from Table 4 and insert the specified op amp parameters
in Table 3. Add up all the errors for each category to
determine the effect the op amp has on the accuracy of the
LTC1592. Arithmetic summation gives an (unlikely) worstcase effect. A root-sum-square (RMS) summation produces a more realistic estimate.
Op amp offset will contribute mostly to output offset and
gain error and has minimal effect on INL and DNL. For the
LTC1592, a 250µV op amp offset will cause about 0.65LSB
INL degradation and 0.15LSB DNL degradation with a 10V
full-scale range (20V range in bipolar). For the LTC1592
programmed in a unipolar mode, the same 250µV op amp
offset will cause a 3.3LSB zero-scale error and a 3.3LSB
gain error with a 10V full-scale range.

While not directly addressed by the simple equations in
Tables 2 and 3, temperature effects can be handled just as
easily for unipolar and bipolar applications. First, consult
an op amp’s data sheet to find the worst-case VOS and IB
over temperature. Then, plug these numbers in the VOS
and IB equations from Table 3 and calculate the temperature induced effects.

Much in the same way selecting an operational amplifier
for use with the LTC1592 is critical to the performance of
the system, selecting a precision voltage reference also
requires due diligence. The output voltage of the LTC1592
is directly affected by the voltage reference; thus, any
voltage reference error will appear as a DAC output voltage
error.
There are three primary error sources to consider when
selecting a precision voltage reference for 16-bit applications: output voltage initial tolerance, output voltage temperature coefficient and output voltage noise.
Initial reference output voltage tolerance, if uncorrected,
generates a full-scale error term. Choosing a reference

with low output voltage initial tolerance, like the LT1236
(±0.05%), minimizes the gain error caused by the reference; however, a calibration sequence that corrects for
system zero- and full-scale error is always recommended.
A reference’s output voltage temperature coefficient affects not only the full-scale error, but can also affect the
circuit’s INL and DNL performance. If a reference is
chosen with a loose output voltage temperature coefficient, then the DAC output voltage along its transfer
characteristic will be very dependent on ambient conditions. Minimizing the error due to reference temperature
coefficient can be achieved by choosing a precision
reference with a low output voltage temperature coefficient and/or tightly controlling the ambient temperature
of the circuit to minimize temperature gradients.
As precision DAC applications move to 16-bit and higher
performance, reference output voltage noise may contribute a dominant share of the system’s noise floor. This in
turn can degrade system dynamic range and signal-tonoise ratio. Care should be exercised in selecting a voltage
reference with as low an output noise voltage as practical
for the system resolution desired. Precision voltage references, like the LT1236, produce low output noise in the
0.1Hz to 10Hz region, well below the 16-bit LSB level in 5V
or 10V full-scale systems. However, as the circuit bandwidths increase, filtering the output of the reference may
be required to minimize output noise.

Grounding
As with any high resolution converter, clean grounding is
important. A low impedance analog ground plane and star
grounding techniques should be used. IOUT2 must be tied
to the star ground with as low a resistance as possible.
When it is not possible to locate star ground close to IOUT2,
a low resistance trace should be used to route this pin to
star ground. This minimizes the voltage drop from this pin
to ground caused by the code dependent current flowing
to ground. When the resistance of this circuit board trace
becomes greater than 1Ω, a force/sense amplified configuration should be used to drive this pin (see Figure 2).
This preserves the excellent accuracy (1LSB INL and DNL)
of the LTC1588/LTC1589/LTC1592.
An Isolated 16-Bit Subsystem Using the LTC1592
The circuit in Figure 4 is a complete example of an optically
isolated analog output subsystem that supports most of
the legacy ranges that are still common in industrial
environments. This circuit uses only two optoisolators,
the load pulse (CS/LD) being derived from a series of
transitions on the data line (SDI) after the clock (SCK) is
halted high. If a single chip microcontroller with an automated SPI interface is to be used, the SPI port can transfer
the 24 bits as three bytes. Subsequently, the data output
port pin can be reassigned to general purpose port operation and exercised to produce a number of transitions to
generate the load pulse. Alternatively, the entire sequence
can be programmed bit by bit with a general purpose port.
Figure 5 shows the timing.
The DC/DC converter, Figure 3 based on the LT®3439
ultralow noise transformer driver provides a compact
means of powering this circuit, and allows the output to
deliver output current that is only limited by the LT1468
capabilities. The output capability of the DC/DC converter
itself is 80mA at ±12V and is available as demo board
DC511A. This circuit as shown requires approximately
130mA of the 5V supply (no load). The total surface area
required is less than 2 square inches.
