It is fabricated on the LC2MOS process, which allows precision linear components and digital circuitry to be implemented on the same chip. 1. Voltage Output Multiplying DAC The AD7845 is the first DAC which has a full 4-quadrant multiplying capability and an output amplifier on chip. All specifications include amplifier performance. The 12 data inputs drive latches which are controlled by standard CS and WR signals, making microprocessor interfacing simple. For stand-alone operation, the CS and WR inputs can be tied to ground, making all latches transparent. All digital inputs are TTL and 5 V CMOS compatible. 2. Matched Application Resistors Three application resistors provide an easy facility for gain ranging, voltage offsetting, etc. The output amplifier can supply ± 10 V into a 2 kΩ load. It is internally compensated, and its input offset voltage is low due to laser trimming at wafer level. For normal operation, RFB is tied to VOUT, but the user may alternatively choose RA, RB or RC to scale the output voltage range. 3. Space Saving The AD7845 saves space in two ways. The integration of the output amplifier on chip means that chip count is reduced. The part is housed in skinny 24-lead 0.3" DIP, 28-terminal LCC and PLCC and 24-terminal SOIC packages. REV.

REV. B tCH –3– AD7845 PIN CONFIGURATIONS DIP, SOIC LCC PLCC TERMINOLOGY LEAST SIGNIFICANT BIT DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG GLITCH IMPULSE This is the analog weighting of 1 bit of the digital word in a V REF DAC. For the AD7845, 1 LSB = 12 . 2 This is the amount of charge injected from the digital inputs to the analog output when the inputs change state. This is normally specified as the area of the glitch in either pA-secs or nV-secs depending upon whether the glitch is measured as a current or voltage. The measurement takes place with VREF = AGND. RELATIVE ACCURACY Relative accuracy or endpoint nonlinearity is a measure of the maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function. It is measured after adjusting for both endpoints (i.e., offset and gain error are adjusted out) and is normally expressed in least significant bits or as a percentage of full-scale range. DIGITAL FEEDTHROUGH When the DAC is not selected (i.e., CS is high) high frequency logic activity on the device digital inputs is capacitively coupled through the device to show up as noise on the VOUT pin. This noise is digital feedthrough. DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY MULTIPLYING FEEDTHROUGH ERROR Differential nonlinearity is the difference between the measured change and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes. A specified differential nonlinearity of +1 LSB max over the operating temperature range ensures monotonicity. This is ac error due to capacitive feedthrough from the VREF terminal to VOUT when the DAC is loaded with all 0s. OPEN-LOOP GAIN Open-loop gain is defined as the ratio of a change of output voltage to the voltage applied at the VREF pin with all 1s loaded in the DAC. It is specified at dc. GAIN ERROR Gain error is a measure of the output error between an ideal DAC and the actual device output with all 1s loaded after offset error has been adjusted out. Gain error is adjustable to zero with an external potentiometer. See Figure 13. UNITY GAIN SMALL SIGNAL BANDWIDTH This is the frequency at which the magnitude of the small signal voltage gain of the output amplifier is 3 dB below unity. The device is operated as a closed-loop unity gain inverter (i.e., DAC is loaded with all 1s). ZERO CODE OFFSET ERROR This is the error present at the device output with all 0s loaded in the DAC. It is due to the op amp input offset voltage and bias current and the DAC leakage current. OUTPUT RESISTANCE This is the effective output source resistance. TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION This is the ratio of the root-mean-square (rms) sum of the harmonics to the fundamental, expressed in dBs. FULL POWER BANDWIDTH Full power bandwidth is specified as the maximum frequency, at unity closed-loop gain, for which a sinusoidal input signal will produce full output at rated load without exceeding a distortion level of 3%. OUTPUT NOISE This is the noise due to the white noise of the DAC and the input noise of the amplifier. –4– REV. B Typical Performance Characteristics–AD7845 Figure 2.

Figure 11 is a simplified circuit diagram of the AD7845 input control logic. When CS and WR are both low, the DAC latch is loaded with the data on the data inputs. All the digital inputs are TTL, HCMOS and +5 V CMOS compatible, facilitating easy microprocessor interfacing. All digital inputs incorporate standard protection circuitry. An output amplifier and feedback resistor perform the currentto-voltage conversion giving VOUT = – D × VREF where D is the fractional representation of the digital word. (D can be set from 0 to 4095/4096.) The amplifier can maintain ± 10 V across a 2 kΩ load. It is internally compensated and settles to 0.01% FSR (1/2 LSB) in less than 5 µs. The input offset voltage is laser trimmed at wafer level. The amplifier slew rate is typically 11 V/µs, and the unity gain small signal bandwidth is 600 kHz. There are three extra on-chip resistors (RA, R B, RC ) connected to the amplifier inverting terminal. These are useful in a number of applications including offset adjustment and gain ranging.

The code table for Figure 13 is given in Table I. BIPOLAR OPERATION (4-QUADRANT MULTIPLICATION) The recommended circuit for bipolar operation is shown in Figure 14. Offset binary coding is used. The offset specification of this circuit is determined by the matching of internal resistors RB and RC and by the zero code offset error of the device. Gain error may be adjusted by varying the ratio of R1 and R2. To use this circuit without trimming and keep within the gain error specifications, resistors R1 and R2 should be ratio matched to 0.01%.

B –7– AD7845 APPLICATION S CIRCUITS PROGRAMMABLE GAIN AMPLIFIER (PGA) PROGRAMMABLE CURRENT SOURCES The AD7845 is ideal for designing programmable current sources using a minimum of external components. Figures 16 and 17 are examples. The circuit of Figure 16 drives a programmable current IL into a load referenced to a negative supply. Figure 17 shows the circuit for sinking a programmable current, IL. The same set of circuit equations apply for both diagrams. The AD7845 performs a PGA function when connected as in Figure 15. In this configuration, the R-2R ladder is connected in the amplifier feedback loop. RFB is the amplifier input resistor. As the code decreases, the R-2R ladder resistance increases and so the gain increases. VOUT = –VIN × 1 4095 RDAC × , D = 0 to RFB 4096 D IL = I3 = I2 + I1 1 R –VIN = –VIN × DAC × = , since RFB = RDAC R DAC D D 4095 D = 0 to 4096 I1 = D ×|V IN | , RDAC I2 = 1 D ×|V IN | D ×|V IN | R = , since RFB = RDAC R1 RDAC FB R1 IL = D ×|V IN | D ×|V IN | + RDAC R1 = D ×|V IN | × R1 R1 1 + RDAC Note that by making R1 much smaller than RDAC, the circuit becomes insensitive to both the absolute value of RDAC and its temperature variations. Now, the only resistor determining load current IL is the sense resistor R1. If R1 = 100 Ω, then the programming range is 0 mA to 100 mA, and the resolution is 0.024 mA. Figure 15. AD7845 Connected as PGA As the programmed gain increases, the error and noise also increase. For this reason, the maximum gain should be limited to 256. Table III shows gain versus code. Note that instead of using RFB as the input resistor, it is also possible to use combinations of the other application resistors, RA, R B and RC. For instance, if RB is used instead of RFB , the gain range for the same codes of Table II now goes from l/2 to 128. Table III.

Programmable Current Source –8– REV. B AD7845 Figure 18. 4–20 mA Current Loop Figure 17. Programmable Current Sink 4–20 mA CURRENT LOOP APPLICATION HINTS The AD7845 provides an excellent way of making a 4-20 mA current loop circuit. This is basically a variation of the circuits in Figures 16 and 17 and is shown in Figure 18. The application resistor RA (Value 4R) produces the effective 4 mA offset. General Ground Management: AC or transient voltages between AGND and DGND can cause noise injection into the analog output. The simplest method of ensuring that voltages at AGND and DGND are equal is to tie AGND and DGND together at the AD7845. In more complex systems where the AGND and DGND intertie is on the backplane, it is recommended that two diodes be connected in inverse parallel between the AD7845 AGND and DGND pins (IN914 or equivalent). IL = I3 = I2 + I1 Since I2 > I1, IL = – 2.5 2.5 VX × D × RFB × 1 = 4R × RFB + R DAC 156 156 and since RDAC=RFB=R 2.5 1000 IL = 4 + D × 2.5 × 156 mA = [4 + (16 × D)]mA, where D goes from 0 to 1 with Digital Code When D = 0 (Code of all 0s): IL = 4 mA When D = 1 (Code of all 1s): IL = 20 mA The above circuit succeeds in significantly reducing the circuit component count. Both the on-chip output amplifier and the application resistor RA contribute to this. Digital Glitches: When a new digital word is written into the DAC, it results in a change of voltage applied to some of the DAC switch gates. This voltage change is coupled across the switch stray capacitance and appears as an impulse on the current output bus of the DAC. In the AD7845, impulses on this bus are converted to a voltage by RFB and the output amplifier. The output voltage glitch energy is specified as the area of the resulting spike in nV-seconds. It is measured with VREF connected to analog ground and for a zero to full-scale input code transition. Since microprocessor based systems generally have noisy grounds which couple into the power supplies, the AD7845 VDD and VSS terminals should be decoupled to signal ground. Temperature Coefficients: The gain temperature coefficient of the AD7845 has a maximum value of 5 ppm/°C. This corresponds to worst case gain shift of 2 LSBs over a 100°C temperature range. When trim resistors R1 and R2 in Figure 13 are used to adjust full-scale range, the temperature coefficient of R1 and R2 must be taken into account. The offset temperature coefficient is 5 ppm of FSR/°C maximum. This corresponds to a worst case offset shift of 2 LSBs over a 100°C temperature range.

B –9– AD7845 MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING 16-BIT MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEMS Figures 19, 20 and 21 show how the AD7845 interfaces to three popular 16-bit microprocessor systems. These are the MC68000, 8086 and the TM32010. The AD7845 is treated as a memory-mapped peripheral to the processors. In each case, a write instruction loads the AD7845 with the appropriate data. The particular instructions used are as follows: MC68000: MOVE 8086: MOV 8-BIT MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEMS Figure 22 shows an interface circuit for the AD7845 to the 8085A 8-bit microprocessor. The software routine to load data to the device is given in Table IV. Note that the transfer of the 12 bits of data requires two write operations. The first of these loads the 4 MSBs into the 7475 latch. The second write operation loads the 8 LSBs plus the 4 MSBs (which are held by the latch) into the DAC.

B AD7845 Figure 23 and 24 are the interface circuits for the Z80 and MC6809 microprocessors. Again, these use the same basic format as the 8085A interface. DIGITAL FEEDTHROUGH In the preceding interface configurations, most digital inputs to the AD7845 are directly connected to the microprocessor bus. Even when the device is not selected, these inputs will be constantly changing. The high frequency logic activity on the bus can feed through the DAC package capacitance to show up as noise on the analog output. To minimize this digital feedthrough isolate the DAC from the noise source. Figure 25 shows an interface circuit which uses this technique. All data inputs are latched from the busy by the CS signal. One may also use other means, such as peripheral interface devices, to reduce the digital feedthrough. Figure 23. AD7845 to Z80 Interface Figure 25.
