GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7524 is a low cost, 8-bit monolithic CMOS DAC
designed for direct interface to most microprocessors.
Basically an 8-bit DAC with input latches, the AD7524’s load
cycle is similar to the “write” cycle of a random access
memory. Using an advanced thin-film on CMOS fabrication
process, the AD7524 provides accuracy to 1/8 LSB with a typical power dissipation of less than 10 milliwatts.
A newly improved design eliminates the protection Schottky
previously required and guarantees TTL compatibility when
using a +5 V supply. Loading speed has been increased for
compatibility with most microprocessors.
Featuring operation from +5 V to +15 V, the AD7524 interfaces directly to most microprocessor buses or output ports.
Excellent multiplying characteristics (2- or 4-quadrant) make
the AD7524 an ideal choice for many microprocessor controlled gain setting and signal control applications.

*Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause
permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the
operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
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 AD7524 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.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
WRITE MODE
CIRCUIT INFORMATION
When CS and WR are both LOW, the AD7524 is in the
WRITE mode, and the AD7524 analog output responds to data
activity at the DB0–DB7 data bus inputs. In this mode, the
AD7524 acts like a nonlatched input D/A converter.
The AD7524, an 8-bit multiplying D/A converter, consists of a
highly stable thin film R-2R ladder and eight N-channel current
switches on a monolithic chip. Most applications require the
addition of only an output operational amplifier and a voltage
or current reference.
The simplified D/A circuit is shown in Figure 1. An inverted
R-2R ladder structure is used—that is, the binarily weighted
currents are switched between the OUT1 and OUT2 bus lines,
thus maintaining a constant current in each ladder leg independent of the switch state.
HOLD MODE
When either CS or WR is HIGH, the AD7524 is in the HOLD
mode. The AD7524 analog output holds the value corresponding to the last digital input present at DB0–DB7 prior to WR or
CS assuming the HIGH state.

EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT ANALYSIS
The equivalent circuit for all digital inputs LOW is shown in
Figures 2. In Figure 2 with all digital inputs LOW, the reference current is switched to OUT2. The current source ILEAKAGE
is composed of surface and junction leakages to the substrate
while the
1
current source represents a constant 1-bit cur256
rent drain through the termination resistor on the R-2R ladder.
The “ON” capacitance of the output N-channel switches is
120 pF, as shown on the OUT2 terminal. The “OFF” switch
capacitance is 30 pF, as shown on the OUT1 terminal. Analysis
of the circuit for all digital inputs high is similar to Figure 2
however, the “ON” switches are now on terminal OUT1, hence
the 120 pF appears at that terminal.
