DESCRIPTION
The DAC7811 is a CMOS 12-bit current output
digital-to-analog converter (DAC). This device
operates from a 3.0 V to 5.5 V power supply, making
it suitable to both battery-powered and many other
applications.
This DAC uses a double-buffered 3-wire serial
interface that is compatible with SPI™, QSPI,
MICROWIRE™, and most DSP interface standards.
In addition, a serial data out pin (SDO) allows for
daisy-chaining when multiple packages are used.
Data readback allows the user to read the contents of
the DAC register via the SDO pin. On power-up, the
internal shift register and latches are filled with zeroes
and the DAC outputs are at zero scale.
The DAC7811 offers excellent 4-quadrant multiplication characteristics, with large signal multiplying
bandwidth of 10 MHz. The applied external reference
input voltage (VREF) determines the full-scale output
current. An integrated feedback resistor (RFB) provides temperature tracking and full-scale voltage
output when combined with an external current-to-voltage precision amplifier.
The DAC7811 is available in a 10-lead MSOP package as well as a small 10-lead SON package.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated
circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation
procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision
integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could
cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

4
SCLK
Serial Clock Input. By default, data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input.
Alternatively, by means of the serial control bits, the device may be configured such that data is clocked into the shift
register on the rising edge of SCLK.
5
SDIN
Serial Data Input. Data is clocked into the 16-bit input register on the active edge of the serial clock input. By default,
on power-up, data is clocked into the shift register on the falling edge of SCLK. The control bits allow the user to
change the active edge to the rising edge.
6
SYNC
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 the input shift register is enabled. Data is loaded to the shift register on the active
edge of the following clocks (power-on default is falling clock edge). In stand-alone mode, the serial interface counts
the clocks and data is latched to the shift register on the 16th active clock edge.
7
SDO
Serial Data Output. This allows a number of parts to be daisy-chained. By default, data is clocked into the shift register
on the falling edge and out via SDO on the rising edge of SCLK. Data will always be clocked out on the alternate edge
to loading data to the shift register. Writing the Readback control word to the shift register makes the DAC register
contents available for readback on the SDO pin, clocked out on the opposite edges to the active clock edge.

Theory of Operation
The DAC7811 is a single channel current output, 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The architecture,
illustrated in Figure 25, is an R-2R ladder configuration with the three MSBs segmented. Each 2R leg of the
ladder is either switched to IOUT1 or the IOUT2 terminal. The IOUT1 terminal of the DAC is held at a virtual GND
potential by the use of an external I/V converter op amp. The R-2R ladder is connected to an external reference
input VREF that determines the DAC full-scale current. The R-2R ladder presents a code independent load
impedance to the external reference of 10 kΩ± 20%. The external reference voltage can vary in a range of –15 V
to +15 V, thus providing bipolar IOUT current operation. By using an external I/V converter and the DAC7811 RFB
resistor, output voltage ranges of -VREF to VREF can be generated.

Equation 1:

(1)
Each DAC code determines the 2R leg switch position to either GND or IOUT. Because the DAC output
impedance as seen looking into the IOUT1 terminal changes versus code, the external I/V converter noise gain will
also change. Because of this, the external I/V converter op amp must have a sufficiently low offset voltage such
that the amplifier offset is not modulated by the DAC IOUT1 terminal impedance change. External op amps with
large offset voltages can produce INL errors in the transfer function of the DAC7811 due to offset modulation
versus DAC code.

Theory of Operation (continued)
For best linearity performance of the DAC7811, an op amp (OPA277) is recommended (see Figure 26). This
circuit allows VREF swinging from –10 V to +10 V.

Serial Interface
The DAC7811 has a three-wire serial interface (SYNC, SCLK, and SDIN), which is compatible with SPI, QSPI,
and MICROWIRE interface standards as well as most Digital Signal Processor (DSP) devices. See the Serial
Write Operation timing diagram for an example of a typical write sequence. The write sequence begins by
bringing the SYNC line low. Data from the DIN line is clocked into the 16-bit shift register on the falling edge of
SCLK. The serial clock frequency can be as high as 50MHz, making the DAC7811 compatible with high-speed
DSPs. The SDIN and SCLK input buffers are gated off while SYNC is high which minimizes the power
dissipation of the digital interface. After SYNC goes low, the digital interface will respond to the SDIN and SCLK
input signals and data can now be shifted into the device. If an inactive clock edge occurs after SYNC goes low,
but before the first active clock edge, it will be ignored. If the SDO pin is being used then SYNC must remain low
until after the inactive clock edge that follows the 16th active clock edge.
Input Shift Register
The input shift register is 16 bits wide, as shown in Figure 27. The four MSBs are the control bits C3 – C0; these
bits determine which function will be executed at the rising edge of SYNC in daisy-chain mode or the 16th active
clock edge in stand-alone mode. The remaining 12 bits are the data bits. On a load and update command
(C3–C0 = 0001) these 12 data bits will be transferred to the DAC register; otherwise, they have no effect.

SYNC Interrupt
In a normal write sequence, the SYNC line is kept low for at least 16 falling edges of SCLK and the DAC is
updated on the 16th falling edge. However, if SYNC is brought high before the 16th falling edge, this acts as an
interrupt to the write sequence. The shift register is reset and the write sequence is seen as invalid. Neither an
update of the DAC register contents or a change in the operating mode occurs.
Daisy-Chain
The DAC7811 powers up in the daisy chain mode which must be used when 2 or more devices are connected in
tandem. The SCLK and SYNC signals are shared across all devices while the SDO output of the first device
connects to the SDIN input of the following device, and so forth. In this configuration 16 SCLK cycles for each
DAC7811 in the chain are required. Please refer to the timing diagram of Figure 28.
For n devices in a daisy-chain configuration, 16n SCLK cycles are required to shift in the entire input data
stream. After 16n active SCLK edges are received following a falling SYNC, the data stream becomes complete,
and SYNC can brought high to update n devices simultaneously.
A continuous stream containing the exact number of SCLK cycles may be sent first while the SYNC signal is held
low, and then raise SYNC at a later time. Nothing happens until the rising edge of SYNC, and then each
DAC7811 in the chain will execute the function defined by the four DAC control bits C3-C0 in its input shift
register.

Control Bits C3 to C0
Control Bits C3 to C0 allow control of various functions of the DAC; see Table 3. Default settings of the DAC on
powering up are as follows: Data clocked into shift register on falling clock edges; daisy-chain mode is enabled.
Device powers on with zero-scale loaded into the DAC register and IOUT lines. The DAC control bits allow the
user to adjust certain features as part of an initialization sequence, for example, daisy-chaining may be disabled
if not in use, active clock edge may be changed to rising edge, and DAC output may be cleared to either zero or
midscale. The user may also initiate a readback of the DAC register contents for verification purposes.

PRODUCT PREVIEW
When SYNC is brought high, each device will execute the function defined by the four DAC control bits C3-C0 in
its input shift register. For example, C3-C0 must be 0001 for each DAC in the chain that is to be updated with
new data, and C3-C0 must be 0000 for each DAC in the chain whose contents are to remain unchanged.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Stability Circuit
For a current-to-voltage design (see Figure 29), the DAC7811 current output (IOUT) and the connection with the
inverting node of the op amp should be as short as possible and according to correct printed circuit board (PCB)
layout design. For each code change, there is a step function. If the gain bandwidth product (GBP) of the op amp
is limited and parasitic capacitance is excessive at the inverting node, then gain peaking is possible. Therefore,
for circuit stability, a compensation capacitor C1 (4 pF to 20 pF typ) can be added to the design, as shown in
Figure 29.

Positive Voltage Output Circuit
As Figure 30 illustrates, in order to generate a positive voltage output, a negative reference is input to the
DAC7811. This design is suggested instead of using an inverting amp to invert the output as a result of resistor
tolerance errors. For a negative reference, VOUT and GND of the reference are level-shifted to a virtual ground
and a –2.5 V input to the DAC7811 with an op amp.

Some applications require full 4-quadrant multiplying capabilities or bipolar output swing. As shown in Figure 31,
external op amp U4 is added as a summing amp and has a gain of 2X that widens the output span to 5 V. A
4-quadrant multiplying circuit is implemented by using a 2.5 V offset of the reference voltage to bias U4.
According to the circuit transfer equation given in Equation 2, input data (D) from code 0 to full-scale produces
output voltages of VOUT = –2.5 V to VOUT = +2.5 V.

A DAC7811 can be integrated into the circuit in Figure 32 to implement an improved Howland current pump for
precise voltage to current conversions. Bidirectional current flow and high voltage compliance are two features of
the circuit. With a matched resistor network, the load current of the circuit is shown by Equation 3:

The DAC7811, as a 2-quadrant multiplying DAC, can be used to generate a unipolar output. The polarity of the
full-scale output IOUT is the inverse of the input reference voltage at VREF.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
The value of R3 in the previous equation can be reduced to increase the output current drive of U3. U3 can drive
±20 mA in both directions with voltage compliance limited up to 15 V by the U3 voltage supply. Elimination of the
circuit compensation capacitor C1 in the circuit is not suggested as a result of the change in the output
impedance ZO, according to Equation 4:
R1R3R1R2
ZO R1R2R3 R1R2R3
(4)
As shown in Equation 4, with matched resistors, ZO is infinite and the circuit is optimum for use as a current
source. However, if unmatched resistors are used, ZO is positive or negative with negative output impedance
being a potential cause of oscillation. Therefore, by incorporating C1 into the circuit, possible oscillation problems
are eliminated. The value of C1 can be determined for critical applications; for most applications, however, a
value of several pF is suggested.
