The ICM7341 is the 10-bit version of this family and the ICM7321 is the 8-bit version. This family of DACs has guaranteed monotonic behavior. There is a 1.25V onboard reference and an operating supply range of 2.7V to 5.5V. Reference Output There is an internal bandgap reference of 1.25V on these parts and there is a gain of two in the output amplifiers which means they swing from ground at code 0 to 2.5V at full-scale : Vout = 2 x (1.25 xD)/2n ICM7361/7341/7321 SINGLE 12/10/8-BIT VOLTAGE-OUTPUT DACS then decoded and the DAC is updated or loaded depending on the control word (see Table 1). The DAC has a double-buffered input with an input latch and a DAC latch. The DAC output will swing to its new value when data is loaded into the DAC latch. The user has three options: loading only the input latch, updating the DAC with data previously loaded into the input latch or loading the input latch and updating the DAC at the same time with a new code. Power-On Reset There is a power-on reset on board that will clear the contents of all the latches to all 0s on power-up and the DAC voltage output will go to ground. Where D=digital input (decimal) and n= number of bits, i.e. 12 for ICM7361, 10 for ICM7341 and 8 for ICM7321. The reference output is nominally 1.25V and is brought out to a separate pin, REFOUT (8-pin MSOP package only) and can be used to drive external loads. However, it is still internally connected to the DAC reference input. The outputs will nominally swing from 0 to 2.5V. Output Amplifier The DAC has an output amplifier with a wide output voltage swing. The actual swing of the output amplifier will be limited by offset error and gain error. See the Applications Information Section for a more detailed discussion. The amplifier is configured in a gain of 2 with internal gain resistors of about 50 kΩ. The output swing will be from 0V to 2.5V at full-scale. The output amplifier can drive a load of 2.0 kΩ to VDD or GND in parallel with a 500 pF load capacitance. The output amplifier has a full-scale typical settling time of 8 µs and it dissipates about 100 µA with a 3V supply voltage. Serial Interface and Input Logic This DAC family uses a standard 3-wire connection compatible with SPI/QSPI interfaces. Data is loaded in 16bit words which consist of 4 address and control bits (MSBs) followed by 12 bits of data (see table 1). The ICM7341 has the last two LSBs as don’t cares and the ICM7321 has the last 4 LSBs as don’t cares. The DAC is double buffered with an input latch and a DAC latch. All the digital inputs are CMOS/TTL compatible. The current dissipation of the device however, will be higher when the inputs are driven at TTL levels. Data is clocked in on the rising edge of SCK which has a Schmitt trigger internally to allow for noise immunity on the SCK pin. This specially eases the use for opto-coupled interfaces. The CS pin must be low when data is being clocked into the part. After the 16th clock pulse the CS pin must be pulled high (level-triggered) for the data to be transferred to an input bank of latches. The CS pin also disables the SCK pin internally when pulled high and the SCK pin must be low before the CS pin is pulled back low. As the CS pin is pulled high the shift register contents are transferred to a bank of 16 latches. The 4 bit control word (C3~C0) is Rev.

This is why the linearity is specified for a starting code greater than zero. APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Power Supply Bypassing and Layout Considerations As in any precision circuit, careful consideration has to be given to layout of the supply and ground. The return path from the GND to the supply ground should be short with low impedance. Using a ground plane would be ideal. The supply should have some bypassing on it. A 10 µF tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 µF ceramic with a low ESR can be used. Ideally these would be placed as close as possible to the device. Avoid crossing digital and analog signals, specially the reference, or running them close to each other. Figure 6 illustrates how a gain error or positive offset error will affect the output when it is close to VDD. A positive gain error or positive offset will cause the output to be limited to the positive supply voltage resulting in a dead-band of codes close to full-scale. Output Swing Limitations The ideal rail-to-rail DAC would swing from GND to VDD however, offset and gain error limit this ability. Figure 5 illustrates how a negative offset error will affect the output. The output will limit close to ground since this is single supply part, resulting in a dead-band area. As a larger DEADBAND NEGATIVE OFFSET OFFSET AND GAIN ERROR Figure 5: Effect of Negative Offset VDD DEADBAND POSITIVE OFFSET Figure 6: Effect of Gain Error and Positive Offset Rev.
