•
•
•
The DAC161S997 is a very low power 16-bit ΣΔ
digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for transmitting an
analog output current over an industry standard 420mA current loop. The DAC161S997 has a simple
4-wire SPI for data transfer and configuration of the
DAC functions. To reduce power and component
count in compact loop-powered applications, the
DAC161S997 contains an internal ultra-low power
voltage reference and an internal oscillator. The low
power consumption of the DAC161S997 results in
additional current being available for the remaining
portion of the system. The loop drive of the
DAC161S997 interfaces to a Highway Addressable
Remote Transducer (HART) modulator, allowing
injection of FSK modulated digital data into the 420mA current loop. This combination of specifications
and features makes the DAC161S997 ideal for 2- and
4-wire industrial transmitters. The DAC161S997 is
available in a 16-pin 4 mm × 4 mm WQFN package
and is specified over the extended industrial
temperature range of –40°C to +105°C.

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.

4-20 mA CURRENT LOOP TRANSMITTER
The DAC161S997 is a 16-bit DAC realized as a ∑Δ modulator. The DAC’s output is a current pulse train that is
filtered by the on-board low pass RC filter. The final output current is a multiplied copy of the filtered modulator
output. This architecture ensures an excellent linearity performance, while minimizing power consumption of the
device.
The DAC161S997 eases the design of robust, precise, long-term stable industrial systems by integrating all
precision elements on-chip. Only a few external components are needed to realize a low-power, high-precision
industrial 4 - 20 mA transmitter.
In case of a fault, or during initial power-up the DAC161S997 will output current in either upper or lower error
current band. The choice of band is user selectable via a device pin. The error current value is user
programmable via SPI.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating
Conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
All voltages are measured with respect to COMA = COMD = 0 V, unless otherwise specified.
When the input voltage (VIN) at any pin exceeds power supplies (VIN < COMA or VIN > VA), the current at that pin must not exceed 5
mA, and the voltage (VIN) at that pin relative to any other pin must not exceed 6 V. See for Pin Descriptions for additional details of
input structures.
The Human Body Model (HBM) is a 100 pF capacitor charged to the specified voltage then discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into
each pin.

Limits are ensured by testing, design, or statistical analysis at 25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are ensured through
correlations using statistical quality control (SQC) method.
At code 0x0200 the BASE current is minimal, for example, device current contribution to power consumption is minimized. SPI is
inactive, for example, after transmitting code 0x200 to the DAC161S997, there are no more transitions in the channel during the supply
current measurement.
INL is measured using the best-fit method in the output current range of 4 mA to 20 mA.
Specified by design.
Offset is the y-intercept of the straight line defined by 4 mA and 20 mA points of the measured transfer characteristic.
Gain Error is the difference in slope of the straight line defined by measured 4 mA and 20 mA points of transfer characteristic, and that
of the ideal characteristic.
This must be treated as the minimum LOOP current ensured in self-powered mode.

REGISTER SET
Unless otherwise indicated, bits outside the register fields listed below are do not care, and will not change
device configuration. Register read operations on such do not care fields will be 0. Registers are read/write
unless indicated otherwise.
Table 1. XFER_REG (Write Only)
Address = 0x01
Bit Field
Field Name
Description
15:0
XFER[15:0]
When PROTECT_REG_WR is set to 1, then a XFER_REG command is necessary to
transfer the previous register write data into the appropriate address. Set this register
to 0x00FF to perform a XFER_REG command.
Table 2. NOP
Address = 0x02
Bit Field
Field Name
Description
No Operation. A write to this register will not change any device configuration.
15:0
NOP[15:0]
This command indicates that the SPI connection is functioning and is used to avoid
SPI_INACTIVE errors.
Table 3. WR_MODE
Address = 0x03; Default = 0x0000
Bit Field
Field Name
Description
0: Register write data transfers to appropriate address immediately after CSB goes
high. Default value.
0
PROTECT_REG_WR
1: Enable protected register transfers: all register writes require a subsequent
XFER_REG command to finalize the loading of register data. Refer to OPTIONAL
PROTECTED SPI WRITES
Table 4. DACCODE
Address = 0x04; Default = 0x2400, 0xE800
Bit Field
15:0
Field Name
DACCODE[15:0]
Description
16-bit natural binary word, where D15 is the MSB, which indicates the desired DAC
output code.
Note the default value of this register is based on the state of the ERR_LVL pin during
startup or reset.
Table 5. ERR_CONFIG
Address = 0x05; Default = 0x0102
Bit Field
10:8
Field Name
L_RETRY_TIME[2:0]
Description
L_RETRY_TIME sets the time interval between successive attempts to reassert the
desired DACCODE output current when a loop error is present. This has no effect if
either MASK_LOOP_ERR is set to 1 or if DIS_RETRY_LOOP is set to 1.
LOOP Retry time = (L_RETRY_TIME + 1) × 50 ms
Default value = 1 (100 ms)
7
DIS_RETRY_LOOP
0: When a loop error is occurring, periodically attempt to send desired DACCODE
output current instead of the set ERR_LOW current. The interval between attempts is
set by L_RETRY_TIMER. Default value.
1: Do not periodically reassert DACCODE output when a loop error is present;
reassert DACCODE after STATUS Register is read out.
6
MASK_LOOP_ERR
0: When a LOOP error is detected the DAC161S997 outputs the current indicated by
ERR_LOW instead of DACCCODE. Default value.
1: When a Loop Error is detected the DAC161S997 tries to maintain DACCODE
current on pin OUT.

DIS_LOOP_ERR_ERRB
Description
0: When a LOOP error is detected the DAC161S997 drives ERRB pin low. Default
value.
1: When a LOOP error is detected the DAC161S997 does not drive ERRB pin low.
4
MASK_SPI_ERR
0: SPI timeout errors change the OUT pin current to an error value, which is
determined by ERRLVL pin and contents of ERR_LOW or ERR_HIGH. Note:
MASK_SPI_TOUT must be set to 0 for this to be reported. Default value.
1: SPI timeout errors do not change the OUT pin current to an error value.
SPI_TIMEOUT sets the time interval for SPI timeout error reporting. After each SPI
write command, an internal timer is reset; if no subsequent write occurs before the
timer reaches SPI timeout, a SPI timeout error is reported. SPI_ERROR reporting is
inhibited by setting MASK_SPI_TOUT.
3:1
SPI_TIMEOUT[2:0]
A NOP write is considered a valid write and resets the timer without changing the
device configuration.
SPI Timeout = (SPI_TIMEOUT + 1) × 50 ms
SPI_TIMEOUT default value = 1 (100 ms)
0
MASK_SPI_TOUT
0: SPI timeout error reporting is enabled. A SPI timeout error drives ERRB low when a
SPI Timeout error occurs. Default value.
1: SPI timeout error reporting is inhibited.
Table 6. ERR_LOW
Address = 0x06; Default = 0x2400
Bit Field
Field Name
Description
Under some error conditions the output current corresponding to this value is the DAC
output, regardless of the value of DACCODE. The ERR_LOW value is used as the
upper byte of the DACCODE, while the lower byte is forced to 0x00.
15:8
ERR_LOW[7:0]
ERR_LOW must be between 0x00(0 mA) and 0x80(12 mA). The DAC161S997
ignores any value outside of that range and retains the previous value in the register.
Refer to the ERROR DETECTION AND REPORTING section for additional details.
The default value is 0x24, which corresponds to approximately 3.37 mA on pin OUT.
Table 7. ERR_HIGH
Address = 0x07; Default = 0xE800
Bit Field
Field Name
Description
Under some error conditions the output current corresponding to this value is the DAC
output, regardless of the value of DACCODE. The ERR_HIGH value is used as the
upper byte of the DACCODE, while the lower byte is forced to 0x00.
15:8
ERR_HIGH[7:0]
ERR_HIGH must be greater than or equal to 0x80 (12 mA). The DAC161S997 ignores
any value below 0x80 and retains the previous value in the register. Refer to the
ERROR DETECTION AND REPORTING section for additional details.
The default value is 0xE8, which corresponds to approximately 21.8 mA on pin OUT.
Table 8. RESET
Address = 0x08
Bit Field
15:0
Field Name
RESET[15:0]
Description
Write 0xC33C to the RESET register followed by a NOP to reset the device. All
writable registers are returned to default values.

FERR_STS
0 = No frame error occurred since the last STATUS read.
This error is cleared by reading the STATUS register. A frame error is caused by an
incorrect number of clocks during a register write. A register write without an integer
multiple of 24 clock cycles will cause a Frame error.
SPI time out error
1 = The SPI interface has not received a valid command within the interval set by
SPI_TIMEOUT.
2
SPI_TIMEOUT_ERR
0 = The SPI interface has received a valid command within the interval set by
SPI_TIMEOUT
If this error occurs, it is cleared with a properly formatted write command to a valid
address.
Loop status sticky bit

APPLICATION INFORMATION
16-BIT DAC AND LOOP DRIVE
DC Characteristics
The DAC converts the 16-bit input code in the DACCODE registers to an equivalent current output. The ΣΔ DAC
output is a current pulse which is then filtered by a third-order RC lowpass filter and boosted to produce the loop
current (ILOOP) at the device OUT pin.

Figure 9. Loop-Powered Transmitter
Figure 9 shows the principle of operation of the DAC161S997 in the Loop-Powered Transmitter (the circuit
details are omitted for clarity). In Figure 9, ID and IA represent supply (quiescent) currents of the internal digital
and analog blocks. IAUX represents supply (quiescent) current of companion devices present in the system, such
as the voltage regulator and the digital interface. Because both the control loop formed by the amplifier and the
bipolar transistor force the voltage across R1 and R2 to be equal, under normal conditions, the ILOOP is dependent
only on IDAC through the following relationship (see Equation 1).
ILOOP = (1 + R1 / R2) IDAC
where
•
IDAC = ƒ(DACCODE)
(1)
Although ILoop has a number of component currents, ILOOP = IDAC + ID + IA + IAUX + IE, only IE is regulated by the
loop to maintain the relationship shown in Equation 1. Because only the magnitude of IE is controlled, not the
direction, there is a lower limit to ILOOP. This limit is dependent on the fixed components IA and ID, and on system
implementation through IAUX.

Figure 10 shows the variant of the transmitter where the local supply provides supply currents to the system
blocks, and not the 4-20mA loop Self-Powered Transmitter. The ame basic relationship between the ILOOP and
IDAC continues, but the component currents of ILOOP are only IDAC and IE.
DC Input-Output Transfer Function
The output current sourced by the OUT pin of the device is expressed by Equation 2.
ILOOP = 24 mA (DACCODE / 216)
(2)
The valid DACCODE range is the full 16-bit code space (0x0000 to 0xFFFF), resulting in the IDAC range of 0 to
approximately 12 μA, which, however, does not result in the ILOOP range of 0 to 24 mA. The maximum output
current sourced out of OUT pin, ILOOP, is 24 mA. The minimum output current is dependent on the system
implementation. The minimum output current is the sum of the supply currents of the DAC161S997 internal
blocks, IA, ID, and companion devices present in the system, IAUX. The last component current, IE, is theoretically
controlled down to 0, however, due to the stability considerations of the control loop, not allowing the IE to drop
below 200 μA is advised.
The graph in Figure 11 shows the DC transfer characteristic of the 4-20mA transmitter, including minimum
current limits. The minimum current limit for the Loop-Powered Transmitter is typically around 400 μA (ID+ IA +
IAUX + IE). The minimum current limit for the Self-Powered Transmitter is typically around 200 μA (IE). Typical
values for ID and IA are listed in the ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS table. IE depends on the BJT device
used.

Figure 11. DAC-DC Transfer Function
Loop Interface
The DAC161S997 cannot directly interface to the typical 4 - 20 mA loop due to the excessive loop supply
voltage. The loop interface has to provide the means of stepping down the LOOP Supply to 3.6V. This can be
accomplished with either a linear regulator (LDO) or switching regulator while keeping in mind that the regulator’s
quiescent current will have direct effect on the minimum achievable ILOOP (see DC Input-Output Transfer
Function).
The second component of the loop interface is the external NPN transistor (BJT). This device is part of the
control circuit that regulates the transmitter’s output current (ILOOP). Since the BJT operates over the wide current
range, spanning at least 4 - 20 mA, it is necessary to degenerate the emitter in order to stabilize transistor’s
transconductance (gm). The degeneration resistor of 22Ω is suggested in typical applications. For circuit details,
see Figure 22.
The NPN BJT should not be replaced with an N-channel FET (Field Effect Transistor) for the following reasons:
discrete FET’s typically have high threshold voltages (VT), in the order of 1.5V to 2V, which is beyond the BASE
output maximum range; discrete FET’s present higher load capacitance which may degrade system stability
margins; and BASE output relies on the BJT’s base current for biasing.

Loop Compliance
The maximum V(LOOP+,LOOP-) potential is limited by the choice of step-down regulator, and the external BJT’s
Collector Emitter breakdown voltage. For minimum V(LOOP+, LOOP−) potential consider TROUBLEFigure 10.
Here, observe that V(LOOP+,LOOP−) ≅ min(VCE) + ILOOPRE + ILOOPR2 = min(VCE) + 0.53V + 0.96V = 3.66V, at

Figure 12. Capacitances Affecting Control Loop
Here it is assumed that the internal amplifier dominates the frequency response of the system, and it has a single
pole response. The BJT’s response, in the bandwidth of the control loop, is assumed to be frequency
independent and is characterized by the transconductance gm and the output resistance ro.
As in previous sections IDAC and IAUX represent the filtered output of the ∑Δ modulator and the quiescent current
of the companion devices.
The circuit in Figure 12 can be further simplified by omitting the on-board capacitances, whose effect will be
discussed in Stability, and by combining the amplifier, the external transistor and resistor RE into one Gm block.
The resulting circuit is shown in Figure 13.
By assuming that the BJT’s output resistance (ro) is large, the loop current ILOOP can be expressed as:

The result above reveals that there are 2 distinct paths from the inputs IDAC and IAUX to the output ILOOP. IDAC
follows the low-pass, and the IAUX follows the high-pass path.
In both cases the corner frequency is dependent on the effective transconductance, Gm, of the external
transistor. This implies that control loop dynamics could vary with the output current ILOOP if Gm were allowed to
be just native device transconductance gm. This undesirable behavior is mitigated by the degenerating resistor
RE which stabilizes Gm as follows:

This results in the frequency response which is largely independent of the output current ILOOP:

While the bandwidth of the IDAC path may not be of great consequence given the low frequency nature of the 420 mA current loop systems, the location of the pole in the IAUX path directly affects PSRR of the transmitter
circuit. This is further discussed in PSRR .
Step Response
The transient input-output characteristics of the DAC161S997 are dominated by the response of the RC filter at
the output of the ∑Δ DAC. Settling times due to step input are shown in TYPICAL PERFORMANCE
CHARACTERISTICS.
Output Impedance
The output impedance is described as:
(9)
By considering the circuit in Figure 13, and setting IDAC = IAUX = 0, the following expression can be obtained:
(10)
As in AC Characteristics an assumption can be made on the frequency response of the internal amplifier, and
the effective transconductance Gm should be stabilized with external RE leading to:

DAC161S997
SNAS621 – JUNE 2013
www.ti.com
The output impedance of the transmitter is a product of the external BJT's output resistance ro, and the frequency
characteristics of the internal amplifier. At low frequencies this results in a large impedance that does not
significantly affect the output current accuracy.
PSRR
Power Supply Rejection Ratio is defined as the ability of the current control loop to reject the variations in the
supply current of the companion devices, IAUX. Specifically:
(12)
It was shown in AC Characteristics that the IAUX affects ILOOP via the high-pass path whose corner frequency is
dependent on the effective Gm of the external BJT. If that dependence were not mitigated with the degenerating
resistor RE, the PSRR would be degraded at low output current ILOOP.
The typical PSRR performance of the transmitter shown in Figure 7 is shown in TYPICAL PERFORMANCE
CHARACTERISTICS.
Stability
The current control loop's stability is affected by the impedances present in the system. Figure 12 shows the
simplified diagram of the control loop, formed by the on-board amplifier and an external BJT, and the lumped
capacitances CX1 through CX4 that model any other external elements.
CX1 typically represents a local step-down regulator, or LDO, and any other companion devices powered from the
LOOP+. This capacitance reduces the stability margins of the control loop, and therefore it should be limited.
RX1 can be used to isolate CX1 from LOOP+ node and thus remedy the stability margin reduction. If RX1 = 0, CX1
cannot exceed 10 nF. RX1 = 200Ω is recommended if it can be tolerated. Minimum RX1 = 40Ω if CX1 exceeds 10
nF.
CX3 also adversely affects stability of the loop and it must be limited to 20 pF. CX4 affects the control loop in the
same way as CX1, and it should be treated in the same way as CX1. CX2 is the only capacitance that improves
stability margins of the control loop. Its maximum size is limited only by the safety requirements.
Stability is a function of ILOOP as well. Since ILOOP is approximately equal to the collector current of the external
BJT, Gm of the BJT, and thus loop dynamics, depend on ILOOP. This dependence can be reduced by
degenerating the emitter of the BJT with a small resistance as discussed in Loop Interface. Inductance in series
with the LOOP+ and LOOP− do not significantly affect the control loop.
Noise and Ripple
The output of the DAC is a current pulse train. The transition density varies throughout the DAC input code range
(ILOOP range). At the extremes of the code range, the transition density is the lowest which results in low
frequency components of the DAC output passing through the RC filter. Hence, the magnitude of the ripple
present in ILOOP is the highest at the ends of the transfer characteristic of the device (see TYPICAL
PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS).
It should be noted that at wide noise measurement bandwidth, it is the ripple due to the ∑Δ modulator that
dominates the noise performance of the device throughout the entire code range of the DAC. This results in the
“U” shaped noise characteristic as a function of output current. At narrow bandwidths, and particularly at midscale output currents, it is the amplifier driving the external BJT that starts to dominate as a noise source.
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is indiscernible from the ripple induced by the ∑Δ modulator.
HART Signal Injection
The HART specification requires minimum suppression of the sensor signal in the HART signal band (1-2 kHz) of
about 60 dB. The filter in Figure 14 below meets that requirement.

RC Filter Limitation
In an effort to speed up the transient response of the device the user can reduce the capacitances associated
with the low-pass filter at the output of the ∑Δ modulator. However, to maintain stability margins of the current
control loop it is necessary to have at least C1 = C2 = C3 = 1nF.
Serial Interface
The 4-wire interface is compatible with SPI, QSPI, and MICROWIRE, as well as most DSPs. See the SPI Timing
Diagrams section for timing information about the read and write sequences. The serial interface is comprised of
CSB, SCLK, SDIs and SDO. The DAC161S997 supports both Mode 0 and Mode 3 of the SPI protocol.
A bus transaction is initiated by the falling edge of CSB. When CSB is low, the input data is sampled at the SDI
pin by the rising edge of the SCLK. The output data is asserted on the SDO pin at the falling edge of SCLK.
A valid transfer requires an integer multiple of 24 SCLK cycles. If CSB is raised before the 24th rising edge of the
SCLK, the transfer aborts and a Frame Error is reported. If CSB is held low after the 24th falling edge of the
SCLK and additional SCLK edges occur, the data continues to flow through the FIFO and out the SDO pin.
When CSB transitions high, the internal controller decodes the most recent 24 bits that were received before the
rising edge of CSB. CSB must transition to high after an integer multiple of 24 clock cycles, otherwise a Frame
Error is reported and the transaction is considered invalid. When a valid number of SCLK pulses occur with CSB
low, the DAC then performs the requested operation after CSB transitions high.

DAC161S997
SNAS621 – JUNE 2013
www.ti.com
The acquired data is shifted into an internal 24-bit shift register (MSB first) which is configured as a 24-bit deep
FIFO. As the data is being shifted into the FIFO via the SDI pin, the prior contents of the register are being
shifted out through the SDO output. While CSB is high, SDO is in a high Z-state. At the falling edge of CSB, SDO
presents the MSB of the data present in the shift register. SDO is updated on every subsequent falling edge of
SCLK.
NOTE
The first SDO transition will happen on the first falling edge AFTER the first rising edge of
SCLK when CSB is low.
The 24 bits of data contained in the FIFO are interpreted as an 8-bit COMMAND word followed by 16-bits of
DATA. The general format of the 24-bit data stream is shown in Figure 16. Complete instruction set is tabulated
in the REGISTER SET Section.
Figure 16.
SPI Write
SPI write operation is used to change the state of the device. Handshaking does not occur between the master
and the slave (DAC161S997), and the master must control the communication on the following inputs: SCLK,
CSB, SDI. The format of the data transfer is described in the Serial Interface section.
A write is composed of two sections, 8-bits corresponding to a command and 16-bits of data. A command is
simply the address of the desired register to update. Note that some registers are read-only; a write to these
registers will have no effect on the device operation and the register contents will not change. The user
instruction set is shown in the REGISTER SET section.
During power up or device reset, the register contents of all writable registers are set to the listed values in the
REGISTER SET section.
If the DAC161S997 is used in a highly noisy environment in which SPI errors are potentially an issue, the
DAC161S997 supports a more robust protocol (see OPTIONAL PROTECTED SPI WRITES ).
SPI Read
The read operation requires all 4 wires of the SPI interface, which are SCLK, SCB, SDI, and SDO. The simplest
READ operation occurs automatically during any valid transaction on the SPI bus because the SDO pin of
DAC161S997 always shifts out the contents of the internal FIFO. Therefore the data being shifted in to the FIFO
is verified by initiating another transaction and acquiring data at SDO, allowing only for the verification of FIFO
contents.
The internal registers are accessed by the user through a register read command. A register read command is
formed by setting bit 7 of the command to 1( effectively ORing with 0x80) with the address of the desired register
to be read and sending the resulting 8 bits as the command (see REGISTER SET). For example, the register
read command of the STATUS register (address 0x05) would be 0x85.
A register read requires two SPI transactions to recover the register data. The first transaction shifts in the
register read command; an 8-bits of command byte followed by 16-bits of dummy data. The register read
command transfers the contents of the internal register into the FIFO. The second transaction shifts out the FIFO
contents; an 8-bit command byte (which is a copy of previous transaction) followed by the register data. The
Register Read operation is shown in Figure 17.

Figure 17.
ERROR DETECTION AND REPORTING
By default, the DAC161S997 detects and reports several types of errors.
Loop Error
A loop error occurs when the device is unable to sustain the required output current at OUT pin, typically caused
by a drop in loop supply, or an increase in load impedance.
When a loop error occurs, the DAC161S997 changes the OUT-pin current to the value in the ERROR_LOW
register, unless the MASK_LOOP_ERR is set to 1. If the MASK_LOOP_ERR is not set, then the device also
periodically attempts to reassert the OUT current set in DACCODE by default. If the DACCODE-current output is
set, the DAC161S997 then stops reporting a loop error. The interval between reasserts is controlled by the
L_RETRY_TIME field in the ERROR_CONFIG register. If the DIS_RETRY_LOOP field in the ERROR_CONFIG
register is changed to 1, the device does not periodically check the loop and, instead, only checks the loop after
a read of the ERR_STATUS (0x09) register. If the loop error is not resolved, then the loop-error current persists.
When a loop error occurs, the DAC161S997 sets the CURR_LOOP_STATUS and LOOP_STATUS fields in the
STATUS register to 1. The LOOP_STATUS field remains set to 1 until the STATUS register is read or the device
is reset. If the loop error is cleared, either by the device reasserting the loop current or by changing the OUT
current , then the CURR_LOOP_STATUS field clears.
SPI Timeout Error (Channel Error)
The DAC161S997 expects to receive periodic SPI write commands to ensure that the SPI connection is
functioning normally. If no SPI write command occurs within the time indicated by the SPI_TIMEOUT field in the
ERROR_CONFIG register, the device reports a SPI timeout error. Note that the SPI write command must be
properly formatted to avoid SPI Timeout errors (such as a write command that generates a frame error does not
prevent an imminent SPI Timeout error).
SPI Timeout error reporting is inhibited by MASK_SPI_TOUT. SPI Timeout errors are not reported on the loop if
MASK_SPI_ERR is set to 1.
Note that a write command to address 0 is not considered a valid write command and will not prevent a SPI
Timeout error.
Frame Error
If a SPI write command has an incorrect number of SCLK pulses, the device reports a frame error. The number
of SCLK pulses must be an integer and a multiple of 24. A frame error is always reported by ERRB being pulled
low. A frame error does not affect the loop current.
Error Reporting
The DAC161S997 reports errors in 3 different ways, by changing the OUT pin current, pulling the ERRB pin low,
and by updating the read-only register STATUS. The reporting on ERRB and OUT pin is customized by setting
the ERROR_CONFIG register.
The ERRB pin connects to a GPIO pin on the microcontroller to function as an interrupt if an error occurs.

output currents, the OUT pin current reports the Loop Error.

Alarm Current
By default, the DAC161S997 reports faults to the plant controller by forcing the OUT current into one of two error
bands. The error current bands are defined as either greater than 20 mA, or less than 4 mA. Loop errors are
reported by setting current of ERR_LOW.
If SPI Timeout Errors are reported on the loop (this is the default; it can be changed by setting the register
ERR_CONFIG:MASK_LOOP_ERR), the error band is controlled by the ERRLVL pin. When ERRLVL is tied to
the COMD voltage, the ERR_LOW current is the reporting current. If ERRLVL is tied to VD then the ERR_HIGH
current is the current-on pin, OUT, if a SPI timeout error occurs.
The exact value of the output current used to indicate fault is dictated by the contents of ERR_HIGH and
ERR_LOW registers.
In the case of a conflicting alarm-current setting (such as a loop error and SPI timeout error occurring
simultaneously and ERRLVL is tied high), the current-on pin, OUT, is determined by ERR_LOW current.

OPTIONAL PROTECTED SPI WRITES
The DAC161S997 supports an optional SPI protocol intended to provide robust support against SPI write errors.
When PROTECT_REG_WR is set to 1, all register writes require a subsequent XFER_REG command (a write of
0x00FF to XFER_REG[0x01]) to load the transferred data into the register address (see Figure 18). This
requirement provides protection against write errors in an electrically noisy environment.

The XFER_REG command combined with the automatic SDO loopback of the previous SPI write data prevents
loading of incorrect data into a register. If the loopback indicates a communication error has occurred (see
Figure 20), the CSB pin is held low and the previous write command is repeated. Although the second SPI
transaction had 48 SCLK pulses instead of 24 pulses, this is not considered a frame error. A frame error is
indicated when the number of SCLK pulses is not an integer multiple of 24.

Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability
information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that
lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between
the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight
in homogeneous material)
(3)
MSL, Peak Temp. -- The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.

There may be additional marking, which relates to the logo, the lot trace code information, or the environmental category on the device.
(5)
Multiple Device Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one Device Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a continuation
of the previous line and the two combined represent the entire Device Marking for that device.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
