DESCRIPTION
20kΩ
The DAC4815 is one in a family of dual and quad
12-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Serial,
8-bit, 12-bit interfaces are available.
The DAC4815 is complete. It contains CMOS logic,
switches, a high-performance buried-zener reference,
and low-noise bipolar output amplifiers. No external
components are required for bipolar ±10V output
range.

8-Bit
Port and
Control In
The DAC4815 has a 2-byte (8 + 4) double-buffered
interface. Data is first loaded (level transferred) into
the input registers in two steps for each DAC. Then
both DACs are updated simultaneously. The DAC has
an asynchronous clear control for reset to bipolar zero.
This feature is useful for power-on reset or system
calibration. The DAC4815 is packaged in a 28-pin
plastic DIP rated for the –40°C to +85°C extended
industrial temperature range.
High-stability laser-trimmed thin film resistors assure
high reliability and true 12-bit integral and differential
linearity over the full specified temperature range.

DISCUSSION OF
SPECIFICATIONS
DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY
Differential nonlinearity is the deviation from an ideal 1
LSB change in the output voltage when the input code
changes by 1 LSB. A differential nonlinearity specification
of ±1 LSB maximum guarantees monotonicity.
INPUT CODES
All digital inputs of the DAC4815 are TTL and 5V CMOS
compatible. Input codes for the DAC4815 are BOB (Bipolar
Offset Binary). See Figure 3 for ±10V bipolar connection.
BIPOLAR ZERO ERROR
The output voltage for code 800HEX.

GAIN ERROR
The deviation of the output voltage span (VMAX – VMIN)
from the ideal span of 20V – 1 LSB (bipolar mode). The gain
error is specified with and without the internal +10V reference error included.

INTEGRAL OR RELATIVE LINEARITY
This term, also know as end point linearity, describes the
transfer function of analog output to digital input code.
Integral linearity error is the deviation of the analog output
versus code transfer function from a straight line drawn
through the end points.
OUTPUT SETTLING TIME
The time required for the output voltage to settle within a
percentage-of-full-scale error band for a full scale transition.
Settling to ±0.012% (1/2 LSB) is specified for the DAC4815.

DIGITAL CROSSTALK
Digital crosstalk is the glitch impulse measured at the output
of one DAC due to a full scale transition on the other
DAC—see Typical Performance Curves. It is dominated by
digital coupling. Also, the integrated area of the glitch pulse
is specified in nV–s. See table of electrical specifications.

FIGURE 1. Simplified Circuit Diagram of DAC Cell.
POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
The DAC4815 is specified for operation with power supplies of VL = +5V and VS = either ±12V or ±15V. Even with
the VS supplies at ±11.4V the DACs can swing a full ±10V.
Power supply decoupling capacitors (1µF tantalum) should
be located close to the DAC power supply connections.
DIGITAL FEEDTHROUGH
Digital feedthrough is the noise at a DAC output due to
activity on the digital inputs—see Typical Performance
Curves.
OPERATION
Depending on the address selected, the 4 MSBs or the 8
LSBs are written into the appropriate input register for each
DAC when the WR signal is brought low. The data are
latched in the input register when the WR goes high. Data
are then transferred from the input registers to the DAC latch
registers by bringing LE low. The data are latched in the
DAC latch registers when LE goes high. All DACs are
updated simultaneously.
When CLR is brought low, the input registers are cleared to
000HEX while the DAC registers = 800HEX. If LE is brought
low after CLR the DACs are updated with 000HEX resulting
in –10V (bipolar) or OV (unipolar) on the output.
Separate digital and analog ground pins are provided to
permit separate current returns. They should be connected
together at one point. Proper layout of the two current
returns will prevent digital logic switching currents from
degrading the analog output signal. The analog ground
current is code dependent so the impedance to the system
reference ground must be kept to a minimum. Connect
DACs as shown in Figure 2 or use a ground plane to keep
ground impedance less than 0.1Ω for less than 0.1LSB error.
±10V OUTPUT RANGE CONNECTION
For a ±10V bipolar output connect the DAC4815 as shown
in Figure 3.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Each of the four DACs in the DAC4815 consists of a CMOS
logic section, a CMOS DAC cell, and an output amplifier.
One buried-zener +10.0V reference and a –10V reference
are shared by all DACs.
CONNECTION TO DIGITAL BUS
DAC4815s can easily be connected to a µprocessor bus.
Decode your address lines to derive the control signals
shown in Figure 4. Only one LATCH signal is required for
a system where all DAC4815s are updated simultaneously.
If your want to update DAC4815s independently, use separate LATCH signals. The LATCH and WRITE signals can
be brought low simultaneously to update the DAC registers
with the same processor instruction that writes the final 8-bit
data word the DAC input registers.
Figure 1 is a simplified circuit for a DAC cell. An R, 2R
ladder network is driven by a voltage reference at VREF.
Current from the ladder is switched either to IOUT or AGND
by 12 single-pole double-throw CMOS switches. This maintains constant current in each leg of the ladder regardless of
digital input code. This makes the resistance at VREF constant (it can be driven by either a voltage or current reference). The reference can be either positive or negative
polarity with a range of up to ±10V.
CMOS switches included in series with the ladder terminating resistor and the feedback resistor, RFB, compensate for
the temperature drift of the ladder switch ON resistance.
The output op amps are connected as transimpedance amplifiers to convert the DAC-cell output current into an output
voltage. They have been specially designed and compensated for precision and fast settling in this application.
