On-chip rail-to-rail output buffer amplifiers
The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 are dual 8-/10-/12-bit buffered
voltage output DACs in a 16-lead TSSOP package that operate
from a single 2.5 V to 5.5 V supply, consuming 230 μA at 3 V.
Their on-chip output amplifiers allow the outputs to swing rail-torail with a slew rate of 0.7 V/μs. The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
utilize a versatile 3-wire serial interface that operates at clock
rates up to 30 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI, QSPI™,
MICROWIRE™, and DSP interface standards.
The references for the two DACs are derived from two reference
pins (one per DAC). These reference inputs may be configured
as buffered or unbuffered inputs. The parts incorporate a poweron reset circuit, which ensures that the DAC outputs power up
to 0 V and remain there until a valid write to the device takes
place. There is also an asynchronous active low CLR pin that
clears both DACs to 0 V. The outputs of both DACs may be
updated simultaneously using the asynchronous LDAC input.
The parts contain a power-down feature that reduces the
current consumption of the devices to 200 nA at 5 V (50 nA
at 3 V) and provides software-selectable output loads while
in power-down mode. The parts may also be used in daisychaining applications using the SDO pin.
APPLICATIONS
The low power consumption of these parts in normal operation
makes them ideally suited to portable battery-operated equipment. The power consumption is 1.5 mW at 5 V and 0.7 mW at
3 V, reducing to 1 μW in power-down mode.

Description
Active Low Control Input. Loads all zeros to both input and DAC registers.
Active Low Control Input. Transfers the contents of the input registers to their respective DAC registers. Pulsing
this pin low allows either or both DAC registers to be updated if the input registers have new data. This allows
the simultaneous update of both DAC outputs.
Power Supply Input. These parts can be operated from 2.5 V to 5.5 V, and the supply should be decoupled to GND.
Reference Input Pin for DAC B. It may be configured as a buffered or an unbuffered input, depending on the state
of the BUF B pin. It has an input range from 0 V to VDD in unbuffered mode and from 1 V to VDD in buffered mode.
Reference Input Pin for DAC A. It may be configured as a buffered or an unbuffered input depending on the state
of the BUF A pin. It has an input range from 0 to VDD in unbuffered mode and from 1 V to VDD in buffered mode.
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from DAC A. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Control Pin. Controls whether the reference input for DAC A is unbuffered or buffered. If this pin is tied low, the
reference input is unbuffered. If it is tied high, the reference input is buffered.
Control Pin. Controls whether the reference input for DAC B is unbuffered or buffered. If this pin is tied low, the
reference input is unbuffered. If it is tied high, the reference input is buffered.
This pin is used to enable the daisy-chaining option. This should be tied high if the part is being used in a daisy
chain. The pin should be tied low if it is being used in standalone mode.
Active Low Control Input. Acts as a hardware power-down option. This pin overrides any software power-down
option. Both DACs go into power-down mode when this pin is tied low. The DAC outputs go into a high
impedance state and the current consumption of the part drops to 200 nA @ 5 V (50 nA @ 3 V).
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from DAC B. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Active Low Control Input. This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When SYNC goes low, it
powers on the SCLK and DIN buffers and enables the input shift register. Data is transferred in on the falling
edges of the following 16 clocks. If SYNC is taken high before the 16th falling edge, the rising edge of SYNC acts
as an interrupt and the write sequence is ignored by the device.
Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input. Data
can be transferred at rates up to 30 MHz. The SCLK input buffer is powered down after each write cycle.
Serial Data Input. This device has a 16-bit shift register. Data is clocked into the register on the falling edge of the
serial clock input. The DIN input buffer is powered down after each write cycle.
Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Part.
Serial Data Output. Can be used for daisy-chaining a number of these devices together or for reading back the
data in the shift register for diagnostic purposes. The serial data output is valid on the falling edge of the clock.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
For the DAC, relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity is a
measure of the maximum deviation, in LSB, from a straight
line passing through the actual endpoints of the DAC transfer
function. A typical INL error vs. code plot can be seen in
Figure 7, Figure 8, and Figure 9.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
Differential nonlinearity 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. This DAC is guaranteed monotonic by design. A typical
DNL error vs. code plot can be seen in Figure 10, Figure 11, and
Figure 12.
Offset Error
This is a measure of the offset error of the DAC and the output
amplifier. It is expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Gain Error
This is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the deviation in slope of the actual DAC transfer characteristic from the
ideal expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Offset Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in offset error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in (ppm of full-scale range)/°C.
Gain Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in gain error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in (ppm of full-scale range)/°C.
Major-Code Transition Glitch Energy
Major-code transition glitch energy is the energy of the impulse
injected into the analog output when the code in the DAC register
changes state. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in
nV-s and is measured 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).
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into
the analog output of the DAC from the digital input pins of the
device, but is measured when the DAC is not being written to
(SYNC held high). It is specified in nV-s and is measured with a
full-scale change on the digital input pins, that is, from all 0s to
all 1s and vice versa.
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
This is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC
due to a digital code change and subsequent output change of
the other DAC. This includes both digital and analog crosstalk.
It is measured by loading one of the DACs with a full-scale code
change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa) while keeping LDAC low
and monitoring the output of the other DAC. The area of the
glitch is expressed in nV-s.
DC Crosstalk
This is the dc change in the output level of one DAC in response
to a change in the output of the other DAC. It is measured with
a full-scale output change on one DAC while monitoring the
other DAC. It is expressed in microvolts.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
This indicates how the output of the DAC is affected by changes
in the supply voltage. PSRR is the ratio of the change in VOUT to
a change in VDD for full-scale output of the DAC. It is measured
in decibels. VREF is held at 2 V and VDD is varied ±10%.
Reference Feedthrough
This is the ratio of the amplitude of the signal at the DAC output to
the reference input when the DAC output is not being updated
(that is, LDAC is high). It is expressed in decibels.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
This is the difference between an ideal sine wave and its
attenuated version using the DAC. The sine wave is used as
the reference for the DAC and the THD is a measure of the
harmonics present on the DAC output. It is measured in
decibels.
Multiplying Bandwidth
The amplifiers within the DAC have a finite bandwidth. The
multiplying bandwidth is a measure of this. A sine wave on the
reference (with full-scale code loaded to the DAC) appears on
the output. The multiplying bandwidth is the frequency at
which the output amplitude falls to 3 dB below the input.
Channel-To-Channel Isolation
This is a ratio of the amplitude of the signal at the output of one
DAC to a sine wave on the reference input of the other DAC. It
is measured in decibels.
Analog Crosstalk
This is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC
due to a change in the output of the other DAC. It is measured
by loading one of the input registers with a full-scale code
change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa) while keeping LDAC
high. Then pulse LDAC low and monitor the output of the
DAC whose digital code was not changed. The area of the
glitch is expressed in nV-s.

AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 are dual resistor-string DACs
fabricated on a CMOS process with resolutions of 8-/10-/12-bits
respectively. They contain reference buffers and output buffer
amplifiers, and are written to via a 3-wire serial interface. They
operate from single supplies of 2.5 V to 5.5 V and the output
buffer amplifiers provide rail-to-rail output swing with a slew
rate of 0.7 V/μs. Each DAC is provided with a separate reference
input, which may be buffered to draw virtually no current from
the reference source, or unbuffered to give a reference input
range from GND to VDD. The devices have three programmable
power-down modes, in which one or both DACs may be turned
off completely with a high impedance output, or the output may
be pulled low by an on-chip resistor.
RESISTOR STRING
The resistor string section of the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
is shown in Figure 30. It is simply a string of resistors, each of
value R. The digital code loaded to the DAC register determines
at what node on the string the voltage is tapped off to be fed
into the output amplifier. The voltage is tapped off by closing
one of the switches connecting the string to the amplifier.
Because it is a string of resistors, it is guaranteed monotonic.

DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG
The architecture of one DAC channel consists of a reference
buffer and a resistor-string DAC followed by an output buffer
amplifier. The voltage at the VREF pin provides the reference
voltage for the DAC. Figure 29 shows a block diagram of the
DAC architecture. Because the input coding to the DAC is
straight binary, the ideal output voltage is given by

There is a reference input pin for each of the two DACs. The
reference inputs are buffered, but can also be configured as
unbuffered. The advantage with the buffered input is the high
impedance it presents to the voltage source driving it. However,
if the unbuffered mode is used, the user can have a reference
voltage as low as GND and as high as VDD since there is no
restriction due to headroom and footroom of the reference
amplifier.
If there is a buffered reference in the circuit (for example,
REF192), there is no need to use the on-chip buffers of the
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323. In unbuffered mode, the input
impedance is still large at typically 180 kΩ per reference input
for 0 V to VREF mode and 90 kΩ for 0 V to 2 VREF mode.
The buffered/unbuffered option is controlled by the BUF A
and BUF B pins. If a BUF pin is tied high, the reference input
is buffered; if tied low, it is unbuffered.
OUTPUT AMPLIFIER
The output buffer amplifier is capable of generating output
voltages to within 1 mV of either rail, which gives an output
range of 0.001 V to VDD − 0.001 V when the reference is VDD.
It is capable of driving a load of 2 kΩ in parallel with 500 pF to
GND and VDD. The source and sink capabilities of the output
amplifier can be seen in Figure 17.
The slew rate is 0.7 V/μs with a half-scale settling time to
±0.5 LSB (at eight bits) of 6 μs.

AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
POWER-ON RESET
The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 are provided with a power-on
reset function, so that they power up in a defined state. The
power-on state is with 0V to VREF output range and the output
set to 0 V.
Both input and DAC registers are filled with zeros and remain
so until a valid write sequence is made to the device. This is
particularly useful in applications where it is important to know
the state of the DAC outputs while the device is powering up.
CLEAR FUNCTION (CLR)
The CLR pin is an active low input that, when pulled low, loads
all zeros to both input registers and both DAC registers. This
enables both analog outputs to be cleared to 0 V.

AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 are controlled over a versatile,
3-wire serial interface, which operates at clock rates up to
30 MHz and is compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE,
and DSP interface standards.
INPUT SHIFT REGISTER
The input shift register is 16 bits wide. Data is loaded into
the device as a 16-bit word under the control of a serial clock
input, SCLK. The timing diagram for this operation is shown in
Figure 5. The 16-bit word consists of four control bits followed
by 8 /10 /12 bits of DAC data, depending on the device type.
The first bit loaded is the MSB (Bit 15), which determines whether
the data is for DAC A or DAC B. Bit 14 determines the output
range (0 V to VREF or 0 V to 2 VREF). Bit 13 and Bit 12 control the
operating mode of the DAC.

After the end of serial data transfer, data is automatically
transferred from the input shift register to the input register
of the selected DAC. If SYNC is taken high before the 16th
falling edge of SCLK, the data transfer is aborted and the input
registers are not updated.
When data has been transferred into both input registers, the
DAC registers of both DACs may be simultaneously updated,
by taking LDAC low. CLR is an active low, asynchronous clear
that clears the input and DAC registers of both DACs to all 0s.
LOW POWER SERIAL INTERFACE
To reduce the power consumption of the device even further,
the interface only powers up fully when the device is being
written to. As soon as the 16-bit control word has been written
to the part, the SCLK and DIN input buffers are powered down.
They only power up again following a falling edge of SYNC.
DOUBLE-BUFFERED INTERFACE
Power-On
Default
N/A
The DACs all have double-buffered interfaces consisting of two
banks of registers—input registers and DAC registers. The input
register is connected directly to the input shift register and the
digital code is transferred to the relevant input register on completion of a valid write sequence. The DAC register contains the
digital code used by the resistor string.

The remaining bits are DAC data bits, starting with the MSB
and ending with the LSB. The AD5323 uses all 12 bits of DAC
data; the AD5313 uses 10 bits and ignores the 2 LSBs. The
AD5303 uses eight bits and ignores the last four bits. The data
format is straight binary, with all 0s corresponding to 0 V output,
and all 1s corresponding to full-scale output (VREF − 1 LSB).
The SYNC input is a level-triggered input that acts as a frame
synchronization signal and chip enable. Data can be transferred
into the device only while SYNC is low. To start the serial data
transfer, SYNC should be taken low, observing the minimum
SYNC to SCLK rising edge setup time, t4. After SYNC goes low,
serial data is shifted into the device’s input shift register on the
falling edges of SCLK for 16 clock pulses. Any data and clock
pulses after the 16th are ignored, and no further serial data
transfer occurs until SYNC is taken high and low again.
SYNC may be taken high after the falling edge of the 16th SCLK
pulse, observing the minimum SCLK falling edge to SYNC
rising edge time, t7.
Access to the DAC register is controlled by the LDAC function.
When LDAC is high, the DAC register is latched and the input
register may change state without affecting the contents of the
DAC register. However, when LDAC is brought low, the DAC
register becomes transparent and the contents of the input register are transferred to it.
This is useful if the user requires simultaneous updating of
both DAC outputs. The user may write to both input registers
individually and then, by pulsing the LDAC input low, both
outputs update simultaneously.
These parts contain an extra feature whereby the DAC register
is not updated unless its input register has been updated since
the last time that LDAC was brought low. Normally, when LDAC
is brought low, the DAC registers are filled with the contents of
the input registers. In the case of the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323,
the part only updates the DAC register if the input register has
been changed since the last time the DAC register was updated,
thereby removing unnecessary digital crosstalk.

POWER-DOWN MODES
The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 have very low power consumption, dissipating only 0.7 mW with a 3 V supply and 1.5 mW
with a 5 V supply. Power consumption can be further reduced
when the DACs are not in use by putting them into one of three
power-down modes, which are selected by Bit 13 and Bit 12
(PD1 and PD0) of the control word. Table 7 shows how the
state of the bits corresponds to the mode of operation of that
particular DAC.

Operating Mode
Normal operation
Power-down (1 kΩ load to GND)
Power-down (100 kΩ load to GND)
Power-down (high impedance output)
The bias generator, the output amplifier, the resistor string, and
all other associated linear circuitry are shut down when the
power-down mode is activated. However, the contents of the
registers are unaffected when in power-down. The time to exit
power-down is typically 2.5 μs for VDD = 5 V and 5 μs when
VDD = 3 V (see Figure 24 for a plot).
The software power-down modes programmed by PD0 and
PD1 are overridden by the PD pin. Taking this pin low puts
both DACs into power-down mode simultaneously and both
outputs are put into a high impedance state. If PD is not used,
it should be tied high.
When both bits are set to 0, the DACs work normally with their
normal power consumption of 300 μA at 5 V. However, for the
three power-down modes, the supply current falls to 200 nA at
5 V (50 nA at 3 V) when both DACs are powered down. Not
only does the supply current drop, but the output stage is also
internally switched from the output of the amplifier to a resistor
network of known values. This has the advantage that the
output impedance of the part is known while the part is in
power-down mode and provides a defined input condition
for whatever is connected to the output of the DAC amplifier.

There are three different power-down options. The output is
connected internally to GND through either a 1 kΩ resistor or
a 100 kΩ resistor, or it is left in a high impedance state (threestate). The output stage is illustrated in Figure 34.

INTERFACE
Figure 35 shows a serial interface between the AD5303/AD5313/
AD5323 and the ADSP-2101. The ADSP-2101 should be set up
to operate in the SPORT transmit alternate framing mode. The
ADSP-2101 sport is programmed through the SPORT control
register and should be configured as follows: internal clock
operation, active-low framing, 16-bit word length. Transmission
is initiated by writing a word to the Tx register after the SPORT
has been enabled.
Figure 37 shows a serial interface between the AD5303/
AD5313/AD5323 and the 80C51/80L51 microcontroller. The
setup for the interface is as follows: TXD of the 80C51/80L51
drives SCLK of the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323, while RXD
drives the serial data line of the part. The SYNC signal is again
derived from a bit programmable pin on the port. In this case,
port line P3.3 is used. When data is to be transmitted to the
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323, P3.3 is taken low. The 80C51/80L51
transmits data only in 8-bit bytes; thus only eight falling clock
edges occur in the transmit cycle. To load data to the DAC, P3.3
is left low after the first eight bits are transmitted and a second
write cycle is initiated to transmit the second byte of data. P3.3
is taken high following the completion of this cycle. The 80C51/
80L51 output the serial data in a format that has the LSB first.
The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 require data with MSB as the
first bit received. The 80C51/80L51 transmit routine should
take this into account.

INTERFACE
Figure 36 shows a serial interface between the AD5303/
AD5313/AD5323 and the 68HC11/68L11 microcontroller.
SCK of the 68HC11/68L11 drives the SCLK of the AD5303/
AD5313/AD5323, while the MOSI output drives the serial data
line (DIN) of the DAC. The SYNC signal is derived from a port
line (PC7). The setup conditions for correct operation of this
interface are as follows: the 68HC11/68L11 should be configured so that its CPOL bit is a 0 and its CPHA bit is a 1.
When data is being transmitted to the DAC, the SYNC line
is taken low (PC7). When the 68HC11/68L11 is configured
as previously mentioned, data appearing on the MOSI output
is valid on the falling edge of SCK. Serial data from the 68HC11/
68L11 is transmitted in 8-bit bytes with only eight falling clock
edges occurring in the transmit cycle. Data is transmitted MSB
first. To load data to the AD5303/AD5313/ AD5323, PC7 is left
low after the first eight bits are transferred and a second serial
write operation is performed to the DAC; PC7 is taken high at
the end of this procedure.

The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 have been designed for singlesupply operation, but bipolar operation is also achievable using
the circuit shown in Figure 41. The circuit shown has been configured to achieve an output voltage range of −5 V < VOUT < +5 V.
Rail-to-rail operation at the amplifier output is achievable using

Figure 39. AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 Using External Reference
If an output range of 0 V to VDD is required when the reference
inputs are configured as unbuffered (for example, 0 V to 5 V),
the simplest solution is to connect the reference inputs to VDD.
As this supply may not be very accurate and may be noisy, the
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 can be powered from the reference
voltage, for example, using a 5 V reference such as the REF195,
as shown in Figure 40. The REF195 outputs a steady supply
voltage for the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323. The supply current
required from the REF195 is 300 μA and approximately 30 μA
or 60 μA into each of the reference inputs (if unbuffered). This
is with no load on the DAC outputs. When the DAC outputs are
loaded, the REF195 also needs to supply the current to the
loads. The total current required (with a 10 kΩ load on each
output) is
360 μA + 2(5 V/10 kΩ) = 1.36 mA
The load regulation of the REF195 is typically 2 ppm/mA, which
results in an error of 2.7 ppm (13.5 μV) for the 1.36 mA current
drawn from it. This corresponds to a 0.0007 LSB error at eight
bits and 0.011 LSB error at 12 bits.

More typically, the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 may be used
with a fixed precision reference voltage. Figure 39 shows a
typical setup for the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 when using
an external reference. If the reference inputs are unbuffered,
the reference input range is from 0 V to VDD, but if the on-chip
reference buffers are used, the reference range is reduced. Suitable references for 5 V operation are the AD780 and REF192
(2.5 V references). For 2.5 V operation, a suitable external
reference is the REF191, a 2.048 V reference.

DECODING MULTIPLE AD5303/AD5313/AD5323s
The SYNC pin on the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 can be used
in applications to decode a number of DACs. In this application,
all the DACs in the system receive the same serial clock and
serial data, but only the SYNC to one of the devices is active at
any one time, allowing access to two channels in this 8-channel
system. The 74HC139 is used as a 2-to-4 line decoder to address
any of the DACs in the system. To prevent timing errors from
occurring, the enable input should be brought to its inactive
state while the coded address inputs are changing state.
Figure 43 shows a diagram of a typical setup for decoding
multiple AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 devices in a system.

The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 has a versatile 3-wire serial
interface making it ideal for generating accurate voltages in
process control and industrial applications. Due to noise, safety
requirements, or distance, it may be necessary to isolate the
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 from the controller. This can easily
be achieved by using opto-isolators, which provides isolation
in excess of 3 kV. The serial loading structure of the AD5303/
AD5313/AD5323 makes it ideally suited for use in opto-isolated
applications. Figure 42 shows an opto-isolated interface to the
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 where DIN, SCLK, and SYNC are
driven from opto-couplers. The power supply to the part also
needs to be isolated. This is done by using a transformer. On the
DAC side of the transformer, a 5 V regulator provides the 5 V
supply required for the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323.
SYNC
DIN
SCLK
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
A continuous SCLK source may be used if it can be arranged
that SYNC is held low for the correct number of clock cycles.
Alternatively, a burst clock containing the exact number of
clock cycles may be used and SYNC may be taken high some
time later.
COARSE AND FINE ADJUSTMENT USING THE
AD5303/AD5313/AD5323
The DACs in the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 can be paired
together to form a coarse and fine adjustment function, as
shown in Figure 45. DAC A provides the coarse adjustment
while DAC B provides the fine adjustment. Varying the ratio
of R1 and R2 changes the relative effect of the coarse and fine
adjustments. With the resistor values and external reference
shown, the output amplifier has unity gain for the DAC A
output, so the output range is 0 V to 2.5 V − 1 LSB. For
DAC B, the amplifier has a gain of 7.6 × 10–3, giving DAC B
a range equal to 19 mV.
When the transfer to all input registers is complete, a common
LDAC signal updates all DAC registers and all analog outputs
are updated simultaneously.

DAISY-CHAIN MODE
This mode is used for updating serially connected or standalone
devices on the rising edge of SYNC. For systems that contain
several DACs, or where the user wishes to read back the DAC
contents for diagnostic purposes, the SDO pin may be used to
daisy-chain several devices together and provide serial readback.
By connecting the daisy-chain enable (DCEN) pin high, the
daisy-chain mode is enabled. It is tied low in standalone mode.
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 16 clock pulses are applied,
the data ripples out of the shift register and appears on the SDO
line. This data is clocked out after the falling edge of SCLK and
is valid on the subsequent rising and falling edges. By connecting this line to the DIN input on the next DAC in the chain, a
multiDAC interface is constructed. Sixteen clock pulses are
required for each DAC in the system. Therefore, the total
number of clock cycles must equal 16N, where N is the total
number of devices in the chain. When the serial transfer to all
devices is complete, SYNC should be taken high. This prevents
any further data from being clocked into the input shift register.

POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING AND GROUNDING
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 AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 are mounted should be
designed so that the analog and digital sections are separated
and confined to certain areas of the board. If the AD5303/
AD5313/AD5323 are 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 AD5303/
AD5313/AD5323. The AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 should
have ample supply bypassing of 10 μF in parallel with 0.1 μF
on the supply located as close to the package as possible, ideally
right up against the device. Use 10 μF capacitors that are of 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.
The power supply lines of the AD5303/AD5313/AD5323 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. 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 is not always possible with a
double-sided board. In this technique, the component side of
the board is dedicated to the ground plane while signal traces
are placed on the solder side.
