CDK3404 is a low-cost triple D/A converters that are tailored to fit graphics
and video applications where speed is critical.
CMOS-level inputs are converted to analog current outputs that can drive
25-37.5Ω loads corresponding to doubly-terminated 50-75Ω loads. A sync
current following SYNC input timing is added to the IOG output. BLANK
will override RGB inputs, setting IOG, IOB and IOR currents to zero when
BLANK = L. Although appropriate for many applications, the internal 1.25V
reference voltage can be overridden by the VREF input.
Few external components are required, just the current reference resistor,
current output load resistors, bypass capacitors, and decoupling capacitors.

Functional Description
Within the CDK3404 are three identical 8-bit D/A converters,
each with a current source output. External loads are
required to convert the current to voltage outputs. Data
inputs RGB7-0 are overridden by the BLANK input. SYNC
BLANK gates the D/A inputs. If BLANK = HIGH, the D/A
inputs control the output currents to be added to the output blanking level. If BLANK = Low, data inputs and the
pedestal are disabled.

D/A Outputs
Clock Input - CLK
Each D/A output is a current source from the VDDA supply.
Expressed in current units, the GBR transformation from
data to current is as follows:
Pixel data is registered on the rising edge of CLK. CLK
should be driven by a dedicated buffer to avoid reflection
induced jitter, overshoot, and undershoot.
Pixel Data Inputs - R7-0, B7-0, G7-0
RGB digital inputs are registered on the rising edge of CLK.
SYNC and BLANK
SYNC and BLANK inputs control the output level (Figure
3 and Table 1, on the previous page) of the D/A converters during CRT retrace intervals. BLANK forces the D/A
outputs to the blanking level while SYNC = L turns off a
current source, IOS, that is connected to the green D/A
converter. SYNC = H adds a 112/256 fraction of full-scale
current to the green output. SYNC = L extinguishes the
sync current during the sync tip.

B = B7-0 & BLANK
R = R7-0 & BLANK
Typical LSB current step is 73.2μA. To obtain a voltage
output, a resistor must be connected to ground. Output
voltage depends upon this external resistor, the reference
voltage, and the value of the gain-setting resistor connected between RREF and GND.
To implement a doubly-terminated 75Ω transmission line,
a shunt 75Ω resistor should be placed adjacent to the
analog output pin. With a terminated 75Ω line connected
to the analog output, the load on the CDK3404 current
source is 37.5Ω.

Digital Inputs
Bringing SYNC LOW, disables a current source which superimposes a sync pulse on the IOG output. SYNC and
pixel data are registered on the rising edge of CLK. SYNC
does not override any other data and should be used only
during the blanking interval. If sync pulses are not required, SYNC should be connected to GND.

video signals.
Data Sheet
The CDK3404 may also be operated with a single 75Ω
terminating resistor. To lower the output voltage swing
to the desired range, the nominal value of the resistor on
RREF should be doubled.
Current source outputs can drive VESA VSIS, and RS343A/SMPTE-170M compatible levels into doubly-terminated 75Ω lines. Sync pulses can be added to the green
output. When SYNC is HIGH, the current added to IOG is:
IOS = 2.33 (VREF/ RREF)
Current-Setting Resistor - RREF
Full-scale output current of each D/A converter is determined by the value of the resistor connected between
RREF and GND. Nominal value of RREF is found from:
RREF = 5.31 (VREF/IFS)
where IFS is the full-scale (white) output current (in amps)
from the D/A converter (without sync). Sync is 0.439 * IFS.
D/A full-scale (white) current may also be calculated from:
IFS = VFS/RL
Voltage Reference
Full scale current is a multiple of the current ISET through
an external resistor, RSET connected between the RREF pin
©2009 CADEKA Microcircuits LLC An internal voltage source of +1.25V is output on the VREF
pin. An external +1.25V reference may be applied to override the internal reference. Decoupling VREF to GND with
a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor is required.
Power and Ground
Required power is a single +3.3V supply. To minimize power
supply induced noise, analog +3.3V should be connected
to VDDD and VDDA pins with 0.1µF and 0.01µF decoupling
capacitors placed adjacent to each VDD pin or pin pair.
The high slew-rate of digital data makes capacitive coupling to the outputs of any D/A converter a potential
problem. Since the digital signals contain high-frequency
components of the CLK signal, as well as the video output signal, the resulting data feedthrough often looks
like harmonic distortion or reduced signal-to-noise performance. All ground pins should be connected to a common
solid ground plane for best performance.

and GND. Voltage across RSET is the reference voltage,
VREF, which can be derived from either the 1.25 volt internal bandgap reference or an external voltage reference
connected to VREF. To minimize noise, a 0.1μF capacitor
should be connected between VREF and ground. ISET is
mirrored to each of the GBR output current sources. To
minimize noise, a 0.1μF capacitor should be connected
between the COMP pin and the analog supply voltage
VDDA.
Data Sheet
Applications Dicussion
Figure 5 (on the following page) illustrates a typical CDK3404
interface circuit. In this example, an optional 1.2V bandgap reference is connected to the VREF output, overriding
the internal voltage reference source.
It is important that the CDK3404 power supply is wellregulated and free of high-frequency noise. Careful power
supply decoupling will ensure the highest quality video
signals at the output of the circuit. The CDK3404 has
separate analog and digital circuits. To keep digital system
noise from the D/A converter, it is recommended that power
supply voltages come from the system analog power
source and all ground connections (GND) be made to the
analog ground plane. Power supply pins should be individually decoupled at the pin.
Printed Circuit Board Layout
Improved Transisiton Times
Output shunt capacitance dominates slowing of output
transition times, whereas series inductance causes a small
amount of ringing that affects overshoot and settling time.
With a doubly terminated 75Ω load, transition times can
be improved by matching the capacitive impedance output
of the CDK3404. Output capacitance can be matched with
a 220nH inductor in series with the 75Ω source termination.

Designing with high-performance mixed-signal circuits
demands printed circuits with ground planes. Overall
system performance is strongly influenced by the board
layout. Capacitive coupling from digital to analog circuits
may result in poor D/A conversion. Consider the following
suggestions when doing the layout:
5. CLK should be handled carefully. Jitter and noise on this
clock will degrade performance. Terminate the clock line
carefully to eliminate overshoot and ringing.
R2
75Ω
1. Keep the critical analog traces (VREF, IREF, COMP, IOS,
IOR, IOG) as short as possible and as far as possible
from all digital signals. The CDK3404 should be
located near the board edge, close to the analog out-put
connectors.
2.
The power plane for the CDK3404 should be separate
from that which supplies the digital circuitry. A single
power plane should be used for all of the VDD pins. If
the power supply for the CDK3404 is the same
as that of the system’s digital circuitry, power to the
CDK3404 should be decoupled with 0.1µF and
0.01µF capacitors and isolated with a ferrite bead.
3. The ground plane should be solid, not cross-hatched.
Connections to the ground plane should have very short
leads.

A 220nH inductor trims the performance of a 4ft cable,
quite well. In Figures xx through xx, the glitch at 12.5ns, is
due to a reflection from the source. Not shown, are smaller
glitches at 25 and 37.5ns, corresponding to secondary and
tertiary reflections. Inductor values should be selected to
match the length and type of the cable.

4. If the digital power supply has a dedicated power plane
layer, it should not be placed under the CDK3404,
the voltage reference, or the analog outputs. Capacitive
coupling of digital power supply noise from this layer
to the CDK3404 and its related analog circuitry can
have an adverse effect on performance.
