GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5516 is a 16-channel, 12-bit voltage-output DAC. The
selected DAC register is written to via the 3-wire serial interface.
DAC selection is accomplished via address bits A3–A0. 14-bit
resolution can be achieved by fine adjustment in Increment/
Decrement Mode (Mode 2). The serial interface operates at
clock rates up to 20 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI,
MICROWIRE, and DSP interface standards. The output voltage range is fixed at ± 2.5 V (AD5516-1), ± 5 V (AD5516-2),
and ± 10 V (AD5516-3). Access to the feedback resistor in each
channel is provided via RFB0 to RFB15 pins.
The device is operated with AVCC = 5 V ± 5%, DVCC = 2.7 V to
5.25 V, VSS = –4.75 V to –12 V, and VDD = +4.75 V to +12 V
and requires a stable 3 V reference on REF_IN.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Sixteen 12-bit DACs in one package, guaranteed monotonic
2. Available in a 74-lead LFBGA package with a body size of
12 mm ⴛ 12 mm

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD5516 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

DOUT
Serial data output. DOUT can be used for daisy-chaining a number of devices together or for reading back the
data in the shift register for diagnostic purposes. Data is clocked out on DOUT on the rising edge of SCLK and is
valid on the falling edge of SCLK.
Active high control input. This pin is tied high to enable daisy-chain mode.
Active low control input. This resets all DAC registers to power-on value.
Active high control input. All DACs go into power-down mode when this pin is high. The DAC outputs go into
a high-impedance state.
Active low output. This signal tells the user that the analog calibration loop is active. It goes low during
conversion. The duration of the pulse on BUSY determines the maximum DAC update rate, fUPDATE. Further
writes to the AD5516 are ignored while BUSY is active.

TERMINOLOGY
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
This is a measure of the maximum deviation from a straight line
passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function. It is
expressed in LSBs.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) is the difference between the
measured change and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two
adjacent codes. A specified DNL of –1 LSB maximum ensures
monotonicity.
DC Crosstalk
This is the dc change in the output level of one DAC at midscale
in response to a full-scale code change (all 0s to all 1s and vice
versa) and output change of another DAC. It is expressed in mV.
Output Settling Time
This is the time taken from when the last data bit is clocked into
the DAC until the output has settled to within ± 0.5 LSB of its
final value (see TPC 7).
Digital-to-Analog Glitch Impulse
Bipolar zero error is the deviation of the DAC output from the ideal
midscale of 0 V. It is measured with 10...00 loaded to the DAC.
It is expressed in LSBs.
This is the area of the glitch injected into the analog output when
the code in the DAC register changes state. It is specified as the
area of the glitch in nV-secs when the digital code is changed by
1 LSB at the major carry transition (011...11 to 100...00 or
100...00 to 011...11).
Positive Full-Scale Error
Digital Crosstalk
This is the error in the DAC output voltage with all 1s loaded to
the DAC. Ideally the DAC output voltage, with all 1s loaded to the
DAC registers, should be 2.5 V – 1 LSB (AD5516-1), 5 V – 1 LSB
(AD5516-2), and 10 V – 1 LSB (AD5516-3). It is expressed in LSBs.
This is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC at
midscale while a full-scale code change (all 1s to all 0s and vice
versa) is being written to another DAC. It is expressed in nV-secs.
Negative Full-Scale Error
This is the area of the glitch transferred to the output (VOUT) of
one DAC due to a full-scale change in the output (VOUT) of
another DAC. The area of the glitch is expressed in nV-secs.
Bipolar Zero Error
This is the error in the DAC output voltage with all 0s loaded to the
DAC. Ideally the DAC output voltage, with all 0s loaded to the
DAC registers, should be –2.5 V (AD5516-1), –5 V (AD5516-2),
and –10 V (AD5516-3). It is expressed in LSBs.
Output Temperature Coefficient
This is a measure of the change in analog output with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in ppm/°C of FSR.
DC Power Supply Rejection Ratio
DC power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is a measure of the change
in analog output for a change in supply voltage (VDD and VSS).
It is expressed in dBs. VDD and VSS are varied ± 5%.
REV. 0
Analog Crosstalk
Digital Feedthrough
This is a measure of the impulse injected into the analog outputs
from the digital control inputs when the part is not being written
to, i.e., SYNC is high. It is specified in nV-secs and measured
with a worst-case change on the digital input pins, e.g., from all
0s to all 1s and vice versa.
Output Noise Spectral Density
This is a measure of internally generated random noise. Random
noise is characterized as a spectral density (voltage per root Hertz).
It is measured in nV/(Hz)1/2.

AD5516
Table I illustrates ideal analog output versus DAC code.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5516 consists of sixteen 12-bit DACs in a single package.
A single reference input pin (REF_IN) is used to provide a 3 V
reference for all 16 DACs. To update a DAC’s output voltage
the required DAC is addressed via the 3-wire serial interface.
Once the serial write is complete, the selected DAC converts the
code into an output voltage. The output amplifiers translate the
DAC output range to give the appropriate voltage range (± 2.5 V,
± 5 V, or ± 10 V) at output pins VOUT0 to VOUT15.
The AD5516 uses a self-calibrating architecture to achieve
12-bit performance. The calibration routine servos to select the
appropriate voltage level on an internal 14-bit resolution DAC.
Noise during the calibration (BUSY low period) can result in
the selection of a voltage within a ± 0.25 LSB band around the
normal selected voltage. See TPC 10.

Mode 2 (MODE bits = 01 or 10): Mode 2 operation allows the
user to increment or decrement the DAC output in 0.25 LSB steps,
resulting in a 14-bit monotonic DAC. The amount by which the
DAC output is incremented or decremented is determined by
Mode 2 bits DB6–DB0, e.g., for a 0.25 LSB increment/decrement
DB6...DB0 = 0000001, while for a 2.5 LSB increment/decrement,
DB6...DB0 = 0001010. The MODE bits determine whether the
DAC data is incremented (01) or decremented (10). The maximum
amount that the user is allowed to increment or decrement the DAC
output is 127 steps of 0.25 LSB, i.e., DB6...DB0 = 1111111.
Mode 2 update takes approximately 1 µs. The Mode 2 feature
allows increased resolution but overall increment/decrement accuracy varies with increment/decrement step as shown in TPC 14.
Mode 2 is useful in applications where greater resolution is
required, for example, in servo applications requiring fine-tune
to 14-bit resolution.
The architecture of each DAC channel consists of a resistorstring DAC followed by an output buffer amplifier. The voltage
at the REF_IN Pin provides the reference voltage for the corresponding DAC. The input coding to the DAC is offset binary;
this results in ideal DAC output voltages as follows:
–
Analog Output, VOUT
Mode 1 (MODE bits = 00): The user programs a 12-bit data
word to one of 16 channels via the serial interface. This word is
loaded into the addressed DAC register and is then converted
into an analog output voltage. During conversion the BUSY
output is low and all SCLK pulses are ignored. At the end of a
conversion BUSY goes high indicating that the update of the
addressed DAC is complete. It is recommended that SCLK is
not pulsed while BUSY is low. Mode 1 conversion takes 25 µs typ.

The user must allow 200 ns (min) between two consecutive
Mode 2 writes in standalone mode and 400 ns (min) between
two consecutive Mode 2 writes in daisy-chain mode.
Daisy-Chain Mode (DCEN = 1)
In daisy-chain mode, the internal gating on SCLK is disabled.
The SCLK is continuously applied to the input shift register
when SYNC is low. If more than 18 clock pulses are applied,
the data ripples out of the shift register and appears on the DOUT
line. This data is clocked out on the rising edge of SCLK and is
valid on the falling edge. By connecting this line to the DIN
input on the next device in the chain, a multidevice interface is
constructed. Eighteen clock pulses are required for each device
in the system. Therefore, the total number of clock cycles must
equal 18N where N is the total number of devices in the chain.
See the timing diagram in Figure 2.
See Figures 4 and 5 for Mode 1 and Mode 2 data formats.
When MODE bits = 11, the device is in No Operation mode.
This may be useful in daisy-chain applications where the user
does not wish to change the settings of the DACs. Simply write
11 to the MODE bits and the following address and data bits
will be ignored.
SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5516 has a 3-wire interface that is compatible with SPI/
QSPI/MICROWIRE and DSP interface standards. Data is written
to the device in 18-bit words. This 18-bit word consists of two
mode bits, four address bits, and 12 data bits as shown in Figure 4.
When the serial transfer to all devices is complete, SYNC should
be taken high. This prevents any further data being clocked into the
input shift register. A burst clock containing the exact number of
clock cycles may be used and SYNC taken high some time later.
After the rising edge of SYNC, data is automatically transferred
from each device’s input shift register to the addressed DAC.
The serial interface works with both a continuous and burst
clock. The first falling edge of SYNC resets a counter that counts
the number of serial clocks to ensure the correct number of bits
are shifted in and out of the serial shift registers. Any further
edges on SYNC are ignored until the correct number of bits are
shifted in or out. In order for another serial transfer to take
place, the counter must be reset by the falling edge of SYNC.
RESET Function
The RESET function on the AD5516 can be used to reset all
nodes on this device to their power-on reset condition. This is
implemented by applying a low-going pulse of minimum 20 ns
to the RESET Pin on the device.
A3–A0
Four address bits (A3 = MSB Address, A0 = LSB). These are

BUSY Output
During conversion, the BUSY output is low and all SCLK

indicating that the update of the addressed DAC is complete. It
is recommended that SCLK is not pulsed while BUSY is low.
DAC 15
DB11–DB0
These are used to write a 12-bit word into the addressed DAC
register. Figures 1 and 2 show the timing diagram for a write
cycle to the AD5516.
MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING
The AD5516 is controlled via a versatile 3-wire serial interface
that is compatible with a number of microprocessors and DSPs.
SYNC FUNCTION
In both standalone and daisy-chain modes, SYNC is an edgetriggered input that acts as a frame synchronization signal and
chip enable. Data can only be transferred into the device while
SYNC is low. To start the serial data transfer, SYNC should be
taken low observing the minimum SYNC falling to SCLK falling
edge setup time, t3.
AD5516 to ADSP-2106x SHARC DSP Interface
The ADSP-2106x SHARC DSPs are easily interfaced to the
AD5516 without the need for extra logic.
The AD5516 expects a t3 (SYNC falling edge to SCLK falling
edge setup time) of 15 ns min. Consult the ADSP-2106x User
Manual for information on clock and frame sync frequencies for
the SPORT register and contents of the TDIV, RDIV registers.
Standalone Mode (DCEN = 0)
After SYNC goes low, serial data will be shifted into the device’s
input shift register on the falling edges of SCLK for 18 clock
pulses. After the falling edge of the 18th SCLK pulse, data will
automatically be transferred from the input shift register to the
addressed DAC.
SYNC must be taken high and low again for further serial data
transfer. SYNC may be taken high after the falling edge of the
18th SCLK pulse, observing the minimum SCLK falling edge
to SYNC rising edge time, t6. If SYNC is taken high before the
18th falling edge of SCLK, the data transfer will be aborted and
the addressed DAC will not be updated. See the timing diagram
in Figure 1.

A data transfer is initiated by writing a word to the TX register

AD5516 to PIC16C6x/7x
The PIC16C6x/7x synchronous serial port (SSP) is configured
as an SPI master with the clock polarity bit (CKP) = 0. This is
done by writing to the synchronous serial port control register
(SSPCON). See user PIC16/17 Microcontroller User Manual.
In this example, I/O port RA1 is being used to provide a SYNC
signal and enable the serial port of the AD5516. This microcontroller transfers only eight bits of data during each serial transfer
operation; therefore, three consecutive write operations are
required. Figure 8 shows the connection diagram.

AD5516 to MC68HC11
The serial peripheral interface (SPI) on the MC68HC11 is
configured for master mode (MSTR = 1), clock polarity bit
(CPOL) = 0, and the clock phase bit (CPHA) = 1. The SPI is
configured by writing to the SPI control register (SPCR)—see
the 68HC11 User Manual. SCK of the 68HC11 drives the SCLK
of the AD5516, the MOSI output drives the serial data line
(DIN) of the AD5516. The SYNC signal is derived from a port
line (PC7). When data is being transmitted to the AD5516, the
SYNC line is taken low (PC7). Data appearing on the MOSI
output is valid on the falling edge of SCK. Serial data from the
68HC11 is transmitted in 8-bit bytes with only eight falling
clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. Data is transmitted
MSB first. In order to transmit 18 data bits, it is important to
left justify the data in the SPDR register. PC7 must be pulled
low to start a transfer and taken high and low again before any
further read/write cycles can take place. A connection diagram is
shown in Figure 7.

A serial interface between the AD5516 and the 80C51/80L51
microcontroller is shown in Figure 9. The AD5516 requires a
clock synchronized to the serial data. The 8051 serial interface
must therefore be operated in Mode 0. TxD of the microcontroller drives the SCLK of the AD5516, while RxD drives the
serial data line. P3.3 is a bit programmable pin on the serial port
that is used to drive SYNC. The 80C51/80L51 provides the
LSB first, while the AD5516 expects MSB of the 18-bit word
first. Care should be taken to ensure the transmit routine takes
this into account.

When data is to be transmitted to the DAC, P3.3 is taken
low. Data on RxD is valid on the falling edge of TxD, so the
clock must be inverted as the AD5516 clocks data into the
input shift register on the rising edge of the serial clock. The
80C51/80L51 transmits its data in 8-bit bytes with only eight
falling clock edges occurring in the transmit cycle. As the DAC
requires an 18-bit word, P3.3 must be left low after the first eight
bits are transferred, and brought high after the complete 18 bits
have been transferred. DOUT may be tied to RxD for data verification purposes when the device is in daisy-chain mode.

APPLICATION CIRCUITS
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
The AD5516 is suited for use in many applications, such as level
setting, optical, industrial systems, and automatic test applications. In level setting and servo applications where a fine-tune
adjust is required, the Mode 2 function increases resolution.
The following figures show the AD5516 used in some potential
applications.
In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful consideration
of the power supply and ground return layout helps to ensure the
rated performance. The printed circuit board on which the AD5516
is mounted should be designed so that the analog and digital
sections are separated and confined to certain areas of the board. If
the AD5516 is in a system where multiple devices require an
AGND-to-DGND connection, the connection should be made at
one point only. The star ground point should be established as
close as possible to the device. For supplies with multiple pins
(AVCC1, AVCC2) it is recommended to tie those pins together. The
AD5516 should have ample supply bypassing of 10 µF in parallel
with 0.1 µF on each supply located as closely to the package as
possible, ideally right up against the device. The 10 µF capacitors
are the tantalum bead type. The 0.1 µF capacitor should have low
effective series resistance (ESR) and effective series inductance
(ESI), like the common ceramic types that provide a low-impedance
path to ground at high frequencies, to handle transient currents
due to internal logic switching.
AD5516 in a Typical ATE System
The AD5516 is ideally suited for the level setting function in
automatic test equipment. A number of DACs are required to
control pin drivers, comparators, active loads, parametric measurement units, and signal timing. Figure 10 shows the AD5516
in such a system.

AD5516 in an Optical Network Control Loop
The AD5516 can be used in optical network control applications that require a large number of DACs to perform a control
and measurement function. In the example shown below, the
outputs of the AD5516 are fed into amplifiers and used to control
actuators that determine the position of MEMS mirrors in an
optical switch. The exact position of each mirror is measured and
the readings are multiplexed into an 8-channel, 14-bit ADC
(AD7865). The increment and decrement modes of the DACs are
useful in this application as it allows the user 14-bit resolution.
The power supply lines of the AD5516 should use as large a trace
as possible to provide low-impedance paths and reduce the effects
of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching signals such
as clocks should be shielded with digital ground to avoid radiating
noise to other parts of the board, and should never be run near
the reference inputs. A ground line routed between the DIN and
SCLK lines will help reduce crosstalk between them (not required
on a multilayer board as there will be a separate ground plane, but
separating the lines will help). It is essential to minimize noise
on REFIN.
Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on opposite
sides of the board should run at right angles to each other. This
reduces the effects of feedthrough through the board. A microstrip technique is by far the best, but not always possible with a
double-sided board. In this technique, the component side of
the board is dedicated to ground plane while signal traces are
placed on the solder side.
As is the case for all thin packages, care must be taken to avoid
flexing the package and to avoid a point load on the surface of
the package during the assembly process.
The control loop is driven by an ADSP-2106x, a 32-bit
SHARC DSP.
