DESCRIPTION
The DAC5672 is a monolithic, dual-channel, 14-bit, high-speed DAC with on-chip voltage reference.
Operating with update rates of up to 200 MSPS, the DAC5672 offers exceptional dynamic performance,
tight-gain, and offset matching characteristics that make it suitable in either I/Q baseband or direct IF
communication applications.
Each DAC has a high-impedance, differential-current output, suitable for single-ended or differential
analog-output configurations. External resistors allow scaling the full-scale output current for each DAC
separately or together, typically between 2 mA and 20 mA. An accurate on-chip voltage reference is
temperature-compensated and delivers a stable 1.2-V reference voltage. Optionally, an external reference may
be used.
The DAC5672 has two, 14-bit, parallel input ports with separate clocks and data latches. For flexibility, the
DAC5672 also supports multiplexed data for each DAC on one port when operating in the interleaved mode.
The DAC5672 has been specifically designed for a differential transformer-coupled output with a 50-Ω
doubly-terminated load. For a 20-mA full-scale output current, both a 4:1 impedance ratio (resulting in an output
power of 4 dBm) and 1:1 impedance ratio transformer (–2 dBm output power) are supported.
The DAC5672 is available in a 48-pin TQFP package. Pin compatibility between family members provides 12-bit
(DAC5662) and 14-bit (DAC5672) resolution. Furthermore, the DAC5672 is pin compatible to the DAC2904 and
AD9767 dual DACs. The device is characterized for operation over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to
85°C.
Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of Texas
Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.
PRODUCTION DATA information is current as of publication date.
Products conform to specifications per the terms of the Texas
Instruments standard warranty. Production processing does not

Measured differentially through 50 Ω to AGND.
Nominal full-scale current, IOUTFS, equals 32x the IBIAS current.
The lower limit of the output compliance is determined by the CMOS process. Exceeding this limit may result in transistor breakdown,
resulting in reduced reliability of the DAC5672 device. The upper limit of the output compliance is determined by the load resistors and
full-scale output current. Exceeding the upper limit adversely affects distortion performance and integral nonlinearity.

Digital Inputs and Timing
Digital Inputs
The data input ports of the DAC5672 accept a standard positive coding with data bits DA13 and DB13 being the
most significant bits (MSB). The converter outputs support a clock rate of up to 200 MSPS. The best
performance is typically achieved with a symmetric duty cycle for write and clock; however, the duty cycle may
vary as long as the timing specifications are met. Similarly, the setup and hold times may be chosen within their
specified limits.
All digital inputs of the DAC5672 are CMOS compatible. Figure 17 and Figure 18 show schematics of the
equivalent CMOS digital inputs of the DAC5672. The 14-bit digital data input follows the offset positive binary
coding scheme. The DAC5672 is designed to operate with a digital supply (DVDD) of 3 V to 3.6 V.

Input Interfaces
The DAC5672 features two operating modes selected by the MODE pin, as shown in the following table:
• For dual-bus input mode, the device essentially consists of two separate DACs. Each DAC has its own
separate data input bus, clock input, and data write signal (data latch-in).
• In single-bus interleaved mode, the data must be presented interleaved at the A-channel input bus. The
B-channel input bus is not used in this mode. The clock and write input are now shared by both DACs.

Dual-Bus Data Interface and Timing
In dual-bus mode, the MODE pin is connected to DVDD. The two converter channels within the DAC5672 consist
of two independent, 14-bit, parallel data ports. Each DAC channel is controlled by its own set of write (WRTA,
WRTB) and clock (CLKA, CLKB) lines. The WRTA/B lines control the channel input latches and the CLKA/B lines
control the DAC latches. The data is first loaded into the input latch by a rising edge of the WRTA/B line.
The internal data transfer requires a correct sequence of write and clock inputs, since essentially two clock
domains having equal periods (but possibly different phases) are input to the DAC5672. This is defined by a
minimum requirement of the time between the rising edge of the clock and the rising edge of the write inputs.
This essentially implies that the rising edge of CLKA/B must occur at the same time or before the rising edge of
the WRTA/B signal. A minimum delay of 2 ns must be maintained if the rising edge of the clock occurs after the
rising edge of the write. Note that these conditions are satisfied when the clock and write inputs are connected
externally. Note that all specifications were measured with the WRTA/B and CLKA/B lines connected together.

Figure 19. Dual-Bus Mode Operation
Single-Bus Interleaved Data Interface and Timing
In single-bus interleaved mode, the MODE pin is connected to DGND. Figure 20 shows the timing diagram. In
interleaved mode, the A- and B-channels share the write input (WRTIQ) and update clock (CLKIQ and internal
CLKDACIQ). Multiplexing logic directs the input word at the A-channel input bus to either the A-channel input
latch (SELECTIQ is high) or to the B-channel input latch (SELECTIQ is low). When SELECTIQ is high, the data
value in the B-channel latch is retained by presenting the latch output data to its input again. When SELECTIQ is
low, the data value in the A-channel latch is retained by presenting the latch output data to its input.
In interleaved mode, the A-channel input data rate is twice the update rate of the DAC core. As in dual-bus
mode, it is important to maintain a correct sequence of write and clock inputs. The edge-triggered flip-flops latch
the A- and B-channel input words on the rising edge of the write input (WRTIQ). This data is presented to the Aand B-DAC latches on the following falling edge of the write inputs. The DAC5672 clock input is divided by a
factor of two before it is presented to the DAC latches.
Correct pairing of the A- and B-channel data is done by RESETIQ. In interleaved mode, the clock input CLKIQ is
divided by two, which would translate to a non-deterministic relation between the rising edges of the CLKIQ and
CLKDACIQ. RESETIQ ensures, however, that the correct position of the rising edge of CLKDACIQ with respect
to the data at the input of the DAC latch is determined. CLKDACIQ is disabled (low) when RESETIQ is high.

SLAS440 – NOVEMBER 2004
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Theory of Operation
The architecture of the DAC5672 uses a current steering technique to enable fast switching and high update
rate. The core element within the monolithic DAC is an array of segmented current sources that are designed to
deliver a full-scale output current of up to 20 mA. An internal decoder addresses the differential current switches
each time the DAC is updated and a corresponding output current is formed by steering all currents to either
output summing node, IOUT1 or IOUT2. The complementary outputs deliver a differential output signal, which
improves the dynamic performance through reduction of even-order harmonics, common-mode signals (noise),
and double the peak-to-peak output signal swing by a factor of two, as compared to single-ended operation.
The segmented architecture results in a significant reduction of the glitch energy and improves the dynamic
performance (SFDR) and DNL. The current outputs maintain a very high output impedance of greater
than 300 kΩ.
When pin 42 (GSET) is high (simultaneous gain set mode), the full-scale output current for both DACs is
determined by the ratio of the internal reference voltage (1.2 V) and an external resistor (RSET) connected to
BIASJ_A. When GSET is low (independent gain set mode), the full-scale output current for each DAC is
determined by the ratio of the internal reference voltage (1.2 V) and separate external resistors (RSET) connected
to BIASJ_A and BIASJ_B. The resulting IREF is internally multiplied by a factor of 32 to produce an effective DAC
output current that can range from 2 mA to 20 mA, depending on the value of RSET.
The DAC5672 is split into a digital and an analog portion, each of which is powered through its own supply pin.
The digital section includes edge-triggered input latches and the decoder logic, while the analog section
comprises both the current source array with its associated switches, and the reference circuitry.
DAC Transfer Function
Each of the DACs in the DAC5672 has a set of complementary current outputs, IOUT1 and IOUT2. The full-scale
output current, IOUTFS, is the summation of the two complementary output currents:

The value of the load resistance is limited by the output compliance specification of the DAC5672. To maintain

compliance range.

Analog Outputs
The DAC5672 provides two complementary current outputs, IOUT1 and IOUT2. The simplified circuit of the

associated parasitic capacitances.

Figure 21. Analog Outputs
The signal voltage swing that may develop at the two outputs, IOUT1 and IOUT2, is limited by a negative and
positive compliance. The negative limit of –1 V is given by the breakdown voltage of the CMOS process and
exceeding it compromises the reliability of the DAC5672 (or even causes permanent damage). With the full-scale
output set to 20 mA, the positive compliance equals 1.2 V. Note that the compliance range decreases to about 1
V for a selected output current of IOUTFS = 2 mA. Care must be taken that the configuration of DAC5672 does not
exceed the compliance range to avoid degradation of the distortion performance and integral linearity.
Best distortion performance is typically achieved with the maximum full-scale output signal limited to
approximately 0.5 VPP. This is the case for a 50-Ω doubly-terminated load and a 20-mA full-scale output current.
A variety of loads can be adapted to the output of the DAC5672 by selecting a suitable transformer while
maintaining optimum voltage levels at IOUT1 and IOUT2. Furthermore, using the differential output configuration
in combination with a transformer is instrumental for achieving excellent distortion performance. Common-mode
errors, such as even-order harmonics or noise, can be substantially reduced. This is particularly the case with
high output frequencies.
For those applications requiring the optimum distortion and noise performance, it is recommended to select a
full-scale output of 20 mA. A lower full-scale range of 2 mA may be considered for applications that require low
power consumption, but can tolerate a slight reduction in performance level.
Output Configurations
The current outputs of the DAC5672 allow for a variety of configurations. As mentioned previously, utilizing the
converter’s differential outputs yield the best dynamic performance. Such a differential output circuit may consist
of an RF transformer or a differential amplifier configuration. The transformer configuration is ideal for most
applications with ac coupling, while op amps are suitable for a dc-coupled configuration.
17
DAC5672
www.ti.com
SLAS440 – NOVEMBER 2004
The single-ended configuration may be considered for applications requiring a unipolar output voltage.
Connecting a resistor from either one of the outputs to ground converts the output current into a
ground-referenced voltage signal. To improve on the dc linearity by maintaining a virtual ground, an I-to-V or
op-amp configuration may be considered.
Differential With Transformer
Using an RF transformer provides a convenient way of converting the differential output signal into a
single-ended signal while achieving excellent dynamic performance. The appropriate transformer must be
carefully selected based on the output frequency spectrum and impedance requirements.
The differential transformer configuration has the benefit of significantly reducing common-mode signals, thus
improving the dynamic performance over a wide range of frequencies. Furthermore, by selecting a suitable
impedance ratio (winding ratio) the transformer can provide optimum impedance matching while controlling the
compliance voltage for the converter outputs.
Figure 22 and Figure 23 show 50-Ω doubly-terminated transformer configurations with 1:1 and 4:1 impedance
ratios, respectively. Note that the center tap of the primary input of the transformer has to be grounded to enable
a dc-current flow. Applying a 20-mA full-scale output current would lead to a 0.5-VPP output for a 1:1 transformer
and a 1-VPP output for a 4:1 transformer. In general, the 1:1 transformer configuration will have slightly better
output distortion, but the 4:1 transformer will have 6 dB higher output power.

full-scale output current.

Reference Operation
Internal Reference
The DAC5672 has an on-chip reference circuit which comprises a 1.2-V bandgap reference and two control
amplifiers, one for each DAC. The full-scale output current, IOUTFS, of the DAC5672 is determined by the
reference voltage, VREF, and the value of resistor RSET. IOUTFS can be calculated by:
V
I
32 I
32 REF
OUTFS
REF
R
SET
(9)
The reference control amplifier operates as a V-to-I converter producing a reference current, IREF, which is
determined by the ratio of VREF and RSET (see Equation 9). The full-scale output current, IOUTFS, results from
multiplying IREF by a fixed factor of 32.
Using the internal reference, a 2-kΩ resistor value results in a full-scale output of approximately 20 mA. Resistors
with a tolerance of 1% or better should be considered. Selecting higher values, the output current can be
adjusted from 20 mA down to 2 mA. Operating the DAC5672 at lower than 20-mA output currents may be
desirable for reasons of reducing the total power consumption, improving the distortion performance, or
observing the output compliance voltage limitations for a given load condition.
It is recommended to bypass the EXTIO pin with a ceramic chip capacitor of 0.1 µF or more. The control
amplifier is internally compensated and its small signal bandwidth is approximately 300 kHz.
External Reference
The internal reference can be disabled by simply applying an external reference voltage into the EXTIO pin,
which in this case functions as an input. The use of an external reference may be considered for applications that
require higher accuracy and drift performance or to add the ability of dynamic gain control.
While a 0.1-µF capacitor is recommended to be used with the internal reference, it is optional for the external
reference operation. The reference input, EXTIO, has a high input impedance (1 MΩ) and can easily be driven
by various sources. Note that the voltage range of the external reference must stay within the compliance range
of the reference input.

Gain Setting Option
The full-scale output current on the DAC5672 can be set two ways: either for each of the two DAC channels
independently or for both channels simultaneously. For the independent gain set mode, the GSET pin (pin 42)
must be low (that is, connected to AGND). In this mode, two external resistors are required — one RSET
connected to the BIASJ_A pin (pin 44) and the other to the BIASJ_B pin (pin 41). In this configuration, the user
has the flexibility to set and adjust the full-scale output current for each DAC independently, allowing for the
compensation of possible gain mismatches elsewhere within the transmit signal path.
Alternatively, bringing the GSET pin high (that is, connected to AVDD), the DAC5672 switches into the
simultaneous gain set mode. Now the full-scale output current of both DAC channels is determined by only one
external RSET resistor connected to the BIASJ_A pin. The resistor at the BIASJ_B pin may be removed; however,
this is not required since this pin is not functional in this mode and the resistor has no effect on the gain equation.
Sleep Mode
The DAC5672 features a power-down function which can reduce the total supply current to approximately 3.1
mA over the specified supply range if no clock is present. Applying a logic high to the SLEEP pin initiates the
power-down mode, while a logic low enables normal operation. When left unconnected, an internal active
pulldown circuit enables the normal operation of the converter.
