Improvements include operation from 12 V to 15 V supplies, a 1/2 LSB linearity grade, faster interface times and better full scale and reference variations with VDD. Additional features include extended temperature range operation for commercial and industrial grades. AD7248A FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM The AD7245A/AD7248A is a complete, 12-bit, voltage output, digital-to-analog converter with output amplifier and Zener voltage reference on a monolithic CMOS chip. No external user trims are required to achieve full specified performance. Both parts are microprocessor compatible, with high speed data latches and double-buffered interface logic. The AD7245A accepts 12-bit parallel data which is loaded into the input latch on the rising edge of CS or WR. The AD7248A has an 8-bit wide data bus with data loaded to the input latch in two write operations. For both parts, an asynchronous LDAC signal transfers data from the input latch to the DAC latch and updates the analog output. The AD7245A also has a CLR signal on the DAC latch which allows features such as power-on reset to be implemented. The on-chip 5 V buried Zener diode provides a low noise, temperature compensated reference for the DAC. For single supply operation, two output ranges of 0 V to +5 V and 0 V to +10 V are available, while these two ranges plus an additional 5 V range are available with dual supplies. The output amplifiers are capable of developing +10 V across a 2 k load to GND. The AD7245A/AD7248A is fabricated in linear compatible CMOS (LC2MOS), an advanced, mixed technology process that combines precision bipolar circuits with low power CMOS logic. The AD7245A is available in a small, 0.3" wide, 24-pin DIP and DACPORT is a registered trademark of Analog Devices, Inc. SOIC and in 28-terminal surface mount packages. The AD7248A is packaged in a small, 0.3" wide, 20-pin DIP and SOIC and in 20-terminal surface mount packages. PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS 1. The AD7245A/AD7248A is a 12-bit DACPORT(R) on a single chip. This single chip design and small package size offer considerable space saving and increased reliability over multichip designs. 2. The improved interface times on the part allows easy, direct interfacing to most modern microprocessors. 3. The AD7245A/AD7248A features a wide power supply range allowing operation from 12 V supplies. REV. A Information furnished by Analog Devices is believed to be accurate and reliable.

It is, therefore defined as: Measured Value--Offset--Ideal Value where the ideal value is calculated relative to the actual reference value. UNIPOLAR OFFSET ERROR Unipolar Offset Error is a combination of the offset errors of the voltage mode DAC and the output amplifier and is measured when the part is configured for unipolar outputs.

However, because the lower supply rail to the part is 0 V, the output voltage cannot actually go negative. Instead the output voltage sits on the lower rail and this results in the transfer function shown. This is an offset effect and the transfer function would have followed the dotted line if the output voltage could have gone negative. Normally, linearity is measured after offset and full scale have been adjusted or allowed for. On the AD7245A/AD7248A the negative offset is allowed for by calculating the linearity from the code which the amplifier comes off the lower rail. This code is given by the negative offset specification. For example, the single supply linearity specification applies between Code 3 and Code 4095 for the 25C specification and between Code 5 and Code 4095 over the TMIN to TMAX temperature range. Since gain error is also measured after offset has been allowed for, it is calculated between the same codes as the linearity error. Bipolar linearity and gain error are measured between Code 0 and Code 4095. NOTES 1 To order MIL-STD-883, Class B, processed parts, add /883B to part number.

TERMINOLOGY RELATIVE ACCURACY Relative Accuracy, or end-point nonlinearity, is a measure of the actual deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function. It is measured after allowing for zero and full scale and is normally expressed in LSBs or as a percentage of full-scale reading. OUTPUT VOLTAGE DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY 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. 0V NEGATIVE OFFSET DIGITAL FEEDTHROUGH { DAC CODE Digital Feedthrough is the glitch impulse injected from the digital inputs to the analog output when the inputs change state.

A Negative Going Settling Time (VDD = +15 V, VSS = -15 V) -7- AD7245A/AD7248A CIRCUIT INFORMATION The small signal (200 mV p-p) bandwidth of the output buffer amplifier is typically 1 MHz. The output noise from the amplifier is low with a figure of 25 nV/Hz at a frequency of 1 kHz. The broadband noise from the amplifier has a typical peak-topeak figure of 150 V for a 1 MHz output bandwidth. There is no significant difference in the output noise between single and dual supply operation. D/A SECTION The AD7245A/AD7248A contains a 12-bit voltage mode digital-to-analog converter. The output voltage from the converter has the same positive polarity as the reference voltage allowing single supply operation. The reference voltage for the DAC is provided by an on-chip buried Zener diode. The DAC consists of a highly stable, thin-film, R-2R ladder and twelve high-speed NMOS single-pole, double-throw switches. The simplified circuit diagram for this DAC is shown in Figure 1. VOLTAGE REFERENCE The AD7245A/AD7248A contains an internal low noise buried Zener diode reference which is trimmed for absolute accuracy and temperature coefficient. The reference is internally connected to the DAC. Since the DAC has a variable input impedance at its reference input the Zener diode reference is buffered. This buffered reference is available to the user to drive the circuitry required for bipolar output ranges. It can be used as a reference for other parts in the system provided it is externally buffered. The reference will give long-term stability comparable with the best discrete Zener reference diodes. The performance of the AD7245A/AD7248A is specified with internal reference, and all the testing and trimming is done with this reference. The reference should be decoupled at the REF OUT pin and recommended decoupling components are 10 F and 0.1 F capacitors in series with a 10 resistor. A simplified schematic of the reference circuitry is shown in Figure 3. Figure 1. D/A Simplified Circuit Diagram The input impedance of the DAC is code dependent and can vary from 8 k to infinity. The input capacitance also varies with code, typically from 50 pF to 200 pF. OP AMP SECTION The output of the voltage mode D/A converter is buffered by a noninverting CMOS amplifier. The user has access to two gain setting resistors which can be connected to allow different output voltage ranges (discussed later). The buffer amplifier is capable of developing up to 10 V across a 2 k load to GND. The output amplifier can be operated from a single positive power supply by tying VSS = AGND = 0 V. The amplifier can also be operated from dual supplies to allow a bipolar output range of -5 V to +5 V. The advantages of having dual supplies for the unipolar output ranges are faster settling time to voltages near 0 V, full sink capability of 2.5 mA maintained over the entire output range and elimination of the effects of negative offset on the transfer characteristic (outlined previously). Figure 2 shows the sink capability of the amplifier for single supply operation. Figure 3. Internal Reference DIGITAL SECTION The AD7245A/AD7248A digital inputs are compatible with either TTL or 5 V CMOS levels. All data inputs are static protected MOS gates with typical input currents of less than 1 nA. The control inputs sink higher currents (150 A max) as a result of the fast digital interfacing. Internal input protection of all logic inputs is achieved by on-chip distributed diodes. The AD7245A/AD7248A features a very low digital feedthrough figure of 10 nV-s in a 5 V output range. This is due to the voltage mode configuration of the DAC. Most of the impulse is actually as a result of feedthrough across the package. INTERFACE LOGIC INFORMATION--AD7245A Table I shows the truth table for AD7245A operation. The part contains two 12-bit latches, an input latch and a DAC latch. CS and WR control the loading of the input latch while LDAC controls the transfer of information from the input latch to the DAC latch. All control signals are level triggered; and therefore, either or both latches may be made transparent, the input latch by keeping CS and WR "LOW", the DAC latch by keeping LDAC "LOW." Input data is latched on the rising edge of WR. Figure 2. Typical Single Supply Sink Current vs. Output Voltage -8- REV. A AD7245A/AD7248A The data held in the DAC latch determines the analog output of the converter. Data is latched into the DAC latch on the rising edge of LDAC. This LDAC signal is an asynchronous signal and is independent of WR. This is useful in many applications. However, in systems where the asynchronous LDAC can occur during a write cycle (or vice versa) care must be taken to ensure that incorrect data is not latched through to the output. For example, if LDAC goes LOW while WR is "LOW", then the LDAC signal must stay LOW for t7 or longer after WR goes high to ensure correct data is latched through to the output. Table I.

AD7245A Write Cycle Timing Diagram INTERFACE LOGIC INFORMATION--AD7248A The input loading structure on the AD7248A is configured for interfacing to microprocessors with an 8-bit wide data bus. The part contains two 12-bit latches--an input latch and a DAC latch. Only the data held in the DAC latch determines the analog output from the converter. The truth table for AD7248A operation is shown in Table II, while the input control logic diagram is shown in Figure 6. H = High State L = Low State X = Don't Care The contents of the DAC latch are reset to all 0s by a low level on the CLR line. With both latches transparent, the CLR line functions like a zero override with the output brought to 0 V in the unipolar mode and -5 V in the bipolar mode for the duration of the CLR pulse. If both latches are latched, a "LOW" pulse on the CLR input latches all 0s into the DAC latch and the output remains at 0 V (or -5 V) after the CLR line has returned "HIGH." The CLR line can be used to ensure powerup to 0 V on the AD7245A output in unipolar operation and is also useful, when used as a zero override, in system calibration cycles. Figure 4 shows the input control logic for the AD7245A and the write cycle timing for the part is shown in Figure 5. Figure 4. AD7245A Input Control Logic Figure 6. AD7248A Input Control Logic CSMSB, CSLSB and WR control the loading of data from the external data bus to the input latch. The eight data inputs on the AD7248A accept right justified data. This data is loaded to the input latch in two separate write operations. CSLSB and WR control the loading of the lower 8-bits into the 12-bit wide latch. The loading of the upper 4-bit nibble is controlled by CSMSB and WR. All control inputs are level triggered, and input data for either the lower byte or upper 4-bit nibble is latched into the input latches on the rising edge of WR (or either CSMSB or CSLSB). The order in which the data is loaded to the input latch (i.e., lower byte or upper 4-bit nibble first) is not important. The LDAC input controls the transfer of 12-bit data from the input latch to the DAC latch. This LDAC signal is also level triggered, and data is latched into the DAC latch on the rising edge of LDAC. The LDAC input is asynchronous and independent of WR. This is useful in many applications especially in REV. A -9- AD7245A/AD7248A the simultaneous updating of multiple AD7248A outputs. However, in systems where the asynchronous LDAC can occur during a write cycle (or vice versa) care must be taken to ensure that incorrect data is not latched through to the output. In other words, if LDAC goes low while WR and either CS input are low (or WR and either CS go low while LDAC is low), then the LDAC signal must stay low for t7 or longer after WR returns high to ensure correct data is latched through to the output. The write cycle timing diagram for the AD7248A is shown in Figure 7. UNIPOLAR (0 V TO +10 V) CONFIGURATION The first of the configurations provides an output voltage range of 0 V to +10 V. This is achieved by connecting the bipolar offset resistor, ROFS, to AGND and connecting RFB to VOUT. In this configuration the AD7245A/AD7248A can be operated single supply (VSS = 0 V = AGND). If dual supply performance is required, a VSS of -12 V to -15 V should be applied. Figure 8 shows the connection diagram for unipolar operation while the table for output voltage versus the digital code in the DAC latch is shown in Table III. Figure 7. AD7248A Write Cycle Timing Diagram An alternate scheme for writing data to the AD7248A is to tie the CSMSB and LDAC inputs together. In this case exercising CSLSB and WR latches the lower 8 bits into the input latch. The second write, which exercises CSMSB, WR and LDAC loads the upper 4-bit nibble to the input latch and at the same time transfers the 12-bit data to the DAC latch. This automatic transfer mode updates the output of the AD7248A in two write operations. This scheme works equally well for CSLSB and LDAC tied together provided the upper 4-bit nibble is loaded to the input latch followed by a write to the lower 8 bits of the input latch. Figure 8.

The part can produce unipolar output ranges of 0 V to +5 V or 0 V to +10 V and a bipolar output range of -5 V to +5 V. Connections for the various ranges are outlined below. The 0 V to +5 V output voltage range is achieved by tying ROFS, RFB and VOUT together. For this output range the AD7245A/ AD7248A can be operated single supply (VSS = 0 V) or dual supply. The table for output voltage versus digital code is as in Table III, with 2 * VREF replaced by VREF. Note that for this range 1 . 1 LSB = V (2-12) = V 3 -10- REF REF 4096 REV. A AD7245A/AD7248A BIPOLAR CONFIGURATION The bipolar configuration for the AD7245A/AD7248A, which gives an output voltage range from -5 V to +5 V, is achieved by connecting the ROFS input to REF OUT and connecting RFB and VOUT. The AD7245A/AD7248A must be operated from dual supplies to achieve this output voltage range. The code table for bipolar operation is shown in Table IV. Table IV.

AGND Bias Circuit PROGRAMMABLE CURRENT SINK Figure 10 shows how the AD7245A/AD7248A can be configured with a power MOSFET transistor, the VN0300M, to provide a programmable current sink from VDD or VSOURCE. The VN0300M is placed in the feedback of the AD7245A/ AD7248A amplifier. The entire circuit can be operated in single supply by tying the VSS of the AD7245A/AD7248A to AGND. The sink current, ISINK, can be expressed as: ISINK = D xVREF R1 1 NOTE: 1 LSB = 2 x VREF(2-11) = VREF 2048 AGND BIAS The AD7245A/AD7248A AGND pin can be biased above system GND (AD7245A/AD7248A DGND) to provide an offset "zero" analog output voltage level. With unity gain on the amplifier (ROFS = VOUT = RFB) the output voltage, VOUT is expressed as: VOUT = VBIAS + D 3 VREF where D is a fractional representation of the digital word in the DAC latch and VBIAS is the voltage applied to the AD7245A/ AD7248A AGND pin. Because the current flowing out of the AGND pin varies with digital code, the AGND pin should be driven from a low impedance source. A circuit configuration is outlined for AGND bias in Figure 9 using the AD589, a +1.23 V bandgap reference. If a gain of 2 is used on the buffer amplifier the output voltage, VOUT is expressed as VOUT = 2(VBIAS + D 3 VREF) In this case care must be taken to ensure that the maximum output voltage is not greater than VDD -3 V. The VDD-VOUT overhead must be greater than 3 V to ensure correct operation of the part. Note that VDD and VSS for the AD7245A/AD7248A must be referenced to DGND (system GND). The entire circuit can be operated in single supply with the VSS pin of the AD7245A/ AD7248A connected to system GND. REV. A Figure 10. Programmable Current Sink Using the VN0300M, the voltage drop across the load can typically be as large as VSOURCE -6 V) with VOUT of the DAC at +5 V. Therefore, for a current of 50 mA flowing in the R1 (with all 1s in the DAC register) the maximum load is 200 with VSOURCE = +15 V. The VN0300M can actually handle currents up to 500 mA and still function correctly in the circuit, but in practice the circuit must be used with larger values of VSOURCE otherwise it requires a very small load. Since the tolerance value on the reference voltage of the AD7245A/AD7248A is 0.2%, then the absolute value of ISINK can vary by 0.2% from device to device for a fixed value of R1. Because the input bias current of the AD7245A/AD7248A's op amp is only of the order of picoamps, its effect on the sink current is negligible. Tying the ROFS input to RFB input reduces this effect even further and prevents noise pickup which could occur if the ROFS pin was left unconnected. -11- AD7245A/AD7248A The circuit of Figure 10 can be modified to provide a programmable current source to AGND or -VSINK (for -VSINK, dual supplies are required on the AD7245A/AD7248A). The AD7245A/ AD7248A is configured as before. The current through R1 is mirrored with a current mirror circuit to provide the programmable source current (see CMOS DAC Application Guide, Publication No. G872-30-10/84, for suitable current mirror circuit). As before the absolute value of the source current will be affected by the 0.2% tolerance on VREF. In this case the performance of the current mirror will also affect the value of the source current. MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACING--AD7245 AD7245A--8086A INTERFACE Figure 12 shows the 8086 16-bit processor interfacing to the AD7245A. In the setup shown the double buffering feature of the DAC is not used and the LDAC input is tied LOW. AD0- AD11 of the 16-bit data bus are connected to the AD7245A data bus (DB0-DB11). The 12-bit word is written to the AD7245A in one MOV instruction and the analog output responds immediately. In this example the DAC address is D000. A software routine for Figure 12 is given in Table V. FUNCTION GENERATOR WITH PROGRAMMABLE FREQUENCY Figure 11 shows how the AD7245A/AD7248A with the AD537, voltage-to-frequency converter and the AD639, trigonometric function generator to provide a complete function generator with programmable frequency. The circuit provides square wave, triwave and sine wave outputs, each output of 10 V amplitude. The AD7245A/AD7248A provides a programmable voltage to the AD537 input. Since both the AD7245A/AD7248A and AD537 are guaranteed monotonic, the output frequency will always increase with increasing digital code. The AD537 provides a square wave output which is conditioned for 10 V by amplifier A1. The AD537 also provides a differential triwave output. This is conditioned by amplifiers A2 and A3 to provide the 1.8 V triwave required at the input of the AD639. The triwave is further scaled by amplifier A4 to provide a 10 V output. Adjusting the triwave applied to the AD639 adjust the distortion performance of the sine wave output, (+10 V in configuration shown). Amplitude, offset and symmetry of the triwave can affect the distortion. By adjusting these, via VR1 and VR2, an output sine wave with harmonic distortion of better than -50 dB can be achieved at low and intermediate frequencies. Using the capacitor value shown in Figure 11 for CF (i.e., 680 pF) the output frequency range is 0 to 100 kHz over the digital input code range. The step size for frequency increments is 25 Hz. The accuracy of the output frequency is limited to 8 or 9 bits by the AD537, but is guaranteed monotonic to 12 bits. Figure 12. AD7245A to 8086 Interface Table V.

In Figure 13, a 12-bit word is loaded to the input latches of each of the DACs in sequence. Then, with one instruction to the appropriate address, CS4 (i.e., LDAC) is brought LOW, updating all the DACs simultaneously. Table Vl.

MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACE--AD7248A Figure 13. AD7245A to 8086 Multiple DAC Interface AD7245A--MC68000 INTERFACE Interfacing between the MC68000 and the AD7245A is accomplished using the circuit of Figure 14. Once again the AD7245A is used in the single buffered mode. A software routine for loading data to the AD7245A is given in Table VI. In this example the AD7245A is located at address E000, and the 12-bit word is written to the DAC in one MOVE instruction. Figure 15 shows the connection diagram for interfacing the AD7248A to both the 8085A and 8088 microprocessors. This scheme is also suited to the Z80 microprocessor, but the Z80 address/data bus does not have to be demultiplexed. Data to be loaded to the AD7248A is right justified. The AD7248A is memory mapped with a separate memory address for the input latch high byte, the input latch low byte and the DAC latch. Data is first written to the AD7248A input latch in two write operations. Either the high byte or the low byte data can be written first to the AD7248A input latch. A write to the AD7248A DAC latch address transfers the input latch data to the DAC latch and updates the output voltage. Alternatively, the LDAC input can be asynchronous or can be common to a number of AD7248As for simultaneous updating of a number of voltage channels. Figure 15. AD7248A to 8085A/8088 Interface Figure 14. AD7245A to 68000 Interface REV. A A connection diagram for the interface between the AD7248A and 68008 microprocessor is shown in Figure 16. Once again the AD7248A acts as a memory mapped device and data is right justified. In this case the AD7248A is configured in the automatic transfer mode which means that the high byte of the input latch has the same address as the DAC latch. Data is written to the AD7248A by first writing data to the AD7248A low byte. Writing data to the high byte of the input latch also transfers the input latch contents to the DAC latch and updates the output. -13- AD7245A/AD7248A Figure 18 shows a connection diagram between the AD7248A and the 8051 microprocessor. The AD7248A is port mapped in this interface and is configured in the automatic transfer mode. Data to be loaded to the input latch low byte is output to Port 1. Output Line P3.0, which is connected to CSLSB of the AD7248A, is pulsed to load data into the low byte of the input latch. Pulsing the P3.1 line, after the high byte data has been set up on Port 1, updates the output of the AD7248A. The WR input of the AD7248A can be hardwired low in this application because spurious address strobes on CSLSB and CSMSB do not occur. Figure 16. AD7248A to 68008 Interface An interface circuit for connections to the 6502 or 6809 microprocessors is shown in Figure 17. Once again, the AD7248A is memory mapped and data is right justified. The procedure for writing data to the AD7248A is as outlined for the 8085A/8088. For the 6502 microprocessor the 2 clock is used to generate the WR, while for the 6809 the E signal is used.
