OPERATION

reference adjusts the ADC span proportionately; see

Adjusting the full-scale input range. Powering down the

auxiliary DAC disables the ADC span trim control. When

the auxiliary DAC is powered down, connect SENSE to

VDD or an external reference.

Power-On Reset

The auxiliary DACs clear the outputs to zero-scale when

power is ﬁrst applied, making system initialization con-

sistent and repeatable.

Transfer Function

The digital-to-analog transfer function is;

VOUT(IDEAL) = ( k/2N ) VREF

where k is the decimal equivalent of the binary DAC input

code, N is the resolution and VREF is 1.5V, the internal

reference voltage of the ADC.

Serial Interface

All serial interface pins (CS/LD, SCK and SDI) have TTL input

levels and are 5V tolerant. The CS/LD input is level trig-

gered. When this input is taken low, it acts as a chip-select

signal, activating the SDI and SCK buffers and enabling the

input shift register. Data (SDI input) is transferred at the

next 24 rising SCK edges. The 4-bit command, C3-C0, is

loaded ﬁrst; then the 4-bit DAC address, A3-A0; and ﬁnally

the 16-bit data word. The data word comprises the 12-bit

input code, ordered MSB-to-LSB, followed by 4 don’t-care

bits. Data can only be transferred to the device when the

CS/LD signal is low. The rising edge of CS/LD ends the

data transfer and causes the device to carry out the action

speciﬁed in the 24-bit input word. The complete sequence

is shown in Figure 3.

The command (C3-C0) and address (A3-A0) assignments

are shown in Table 3. The ﬁrst four commands in the table

consist of write and update operations. A write operation

loads a 16-bit data word from the 32-bit shift register

into the input register of the selected DAC,

n. An update

operation copies the data word from the input register to

the DAC register. Once copied into the DAC register, the

data word becomes the active 12-bit input code, and is

converted to an analog voltage at the DAC output. The

update operation also powers up the selected DAC if it had

been in power-down mode. The data path and registers

are shown in the Block Diagram.

While the minimum input word is 24-bits, it may optionally

be extended to 32-bits to accommodate microprocessors

which have a minimum word width of 16 bits (2 bytes). To

use the 32-bit word width, 8 don’t-care bits are transferred

to the device ﬁrst, followed by the 24-bit word as just

described. Figure 4 shows the 32-bit sequence.

Power-Down Mode

Either or both DAC channels can be put into power-down

mode by using command 0100b in combination with

the appropriate DAC address,

n. The 16-bit data word is

ignored.

Normal operation can be resumed by executing any com-

mand which includes a DAC update, as shown in Table 3.

The selected DAC is powered up as its voltage output is

updated. If both DACs are powered down, then the main

bias generation circuit block has been automatically shut

down in addition to the individual DAC ampliﬁers and

reference inputs. In this case, the power-up delay time is

700μs (for VCC = 3V).
