Tweve combinations of accuracy (12-, 1-, and 8-bit), power-on reset vaue (zero or mid-scae), and fu-scae votage (2.5V or 4.96V) are avaiabe. The LTC263 is controed using a 3-wire SPI/ MICROWIRE compatibe interface. Power-On Reset The LTC263-HZ/-LZ cear the output to zero scae when power is first appied, making system initiaization consistent and repeatabe. For some appications, downstream circuits are active during DAC power-up, and may be sensitive to nonzero outputs from the DAC during this time. The LTC263 contains circuitry to reduce the power-on gitch: the anaog output typicay rises ess than 5mV above zero scae during power on if the power suppy is ramped to 5V in 1ms or more. In genera, the gitch ampitude decreases as the power suppy ramp time is increased. See Power-On Reset Gitch in the Typica Performance Characteristics section. The LTC263-HM/-LM provide an aternative reset, setting the output to mid-scae when power is first appied. Transfer Function The digita-to-anaog transfer function is V OUT(IDEAL) = k V REF 2 N where k is the decima equivaent of the binary DAC input code, N is the resoution, and V REF is either 2.5V (LTC263-L) or 4.96V (LTC263-H) in interna reference mode, and V CC in Suppy as reference mode.

Command and Data Input Format Seria Interface The input is eve triggered. When this input is taken ow, it acts as a chip-seect signa, enabing the SDI and SCK buffers and the input shift register. Data (SDI input) is transferred at the next 24 rising SCK edges. The 4-bit command, C3-C, is oaded first; then 4 don t-care bits; and finay the 16-bit data word. The data word comprises the 12-, 1- or 8-bit input code, ordered MSB-to-LSB, foowed by 4, 6 or 8 don t-care bits (LTC263-12, -1 and -8 respectivey; see Figure 2). Data can ony be transferred to the device when the signa is ow, beginning on the first rising edge of SCK. SCK may be high or ow at the faing edge of. The rising edge of ends the data transfer and causes the device to execute the command specified in the 24-bit input sequence. The compete sequence is shown in Figure 3a. The command (C3-C) assignments are shown in Tabe 1. The first three commands in the tabe consist of write and update operations. A Write operation oads a 16-bit data word from the 24-bit shift register into the input register. In an Update operation, the input register is copied to the DAC register and converted to an anaog votage at the DAC output. Write to and Update combines the first two commands. The Update operation aso powers up the DAC if it had been in power-down mode. The data path and registers are shown in the Bock Diagram. Whie the minimum input sequence is 24-bits, it may optionay be extended to 32-bits to accommodate microprocessors that have a minimum word width of 16-bits (2 bytes). To use the 32-bit width, 8 don t-care bits are transferred to the device first, foowed by the 24-bit sequence described. Figure 3b shows the 32-bit sequence. 14 263ff
OPERATION The 16-bit data word is ignored for a commands that do not incude a Write operation. Power-Down Mode For power-constrained appications, power-down mode can be used to reduce the suppy current whenever the DAC output is not needed. When in power-down, the buffer ampifier, bias circuit, and reference circuit are disabed and draw essentiay zero current. The DAC output is put into a high-impedance state, and the output pin is passivey pued to ground through a 2kΩ resistor. Input and DAC register contents are not disturbed during power-down. The DAC can be put into power-down mode by using command 1. The suppy current is reduced to 1.8µA maximum when the DAC is powered down. Norma operation resumes after executing any command that incudes a DAC update, as shown in Tabe 1. The DAC is powered up and its votage output is updated. Norma setting is deayed whie the bias, reference, and ampifier circuits are re-enabed. The power-up deay time is 18µs for setting to 12-bits. Reference Modes For appications where an accurate externa reference is not avaiabe, the LTC263 has a user-seectabe, integrated reference. The LTC263-LM and LTC263-LZ provide a fu-scae output of 2.5V. The LTC263-HM and LTC263- HZ provide a fu-scae output of 4.96V. The interna reference can be usefu in appications where the suppy votage is poory reguated. Interna Reference mode can be seected by using command 11, and is the power-on defaut. LTC263 The DAC can aso operate in suppy as reference mode using command 111. In this mode, V CC suppies the DAC s reference votage and the suppy current is reduced. Votage Output The LTC263 s integrated rai-to-rai ampifier has guaranteed oad reguation when sourcing or sinking up to 1mA at 5V, and 5mA at 3V. Load reguation is a measure of the ampifier s abiity to maintain the rated votage accuracy over a wide range of oad current. The measured change in output votage per change in forced oad current is expressed in LSB/mA. DC output impedance is equivaent to oad reguation, and may be derived from it by simpy cacuating a change in units from LSB/mA to ohms. The ampifier s DC output impedance is.1ω when driving a oad we away from the rais. When drawing a oad current from either rai, the output votage headroom with respect to that rai is imited by the 5Ω typica channe resistance of the output devices (e.g., when sinking 1mA, the minimum output votage is 5Ω 1mA, or 5mV). See the graph Headroom at Rais vs. Output Current in the Typica Performance Characteristics section. The ampifier is stabe driving capacitive oads of up to 5pF. 263ff 15
LTC263 OPERATION Rai-to-Rai Output Considerations In any rai-to-rai votage output device, the output is imited to votages within the suppy range. Since the anaog output of the DAC cannot go beow ground, it may imit for the owest codes as shown in Figure 4b. Simiary, imiting can occur near fu scae when using the suppy as reference. If V FS = V CC and the DAC fu-scae error (FSE) is positive, the output for the highest codes imits at V CC, as shown in Figure 4. No fu-scae imiting can occur if V FS is ess than V CC FSE. Offset and inearity are defined and tested over the region of the DAC transfer function where no output imiting can occur. Board Layout The PC board shoud have separate areas for the anaog and digita sections of the circuit. A singe, soid ground pane shoud be used, with anaog and digita signas carefuy routed over separate areas of the pane. This keeps digita signas away from sensitive anaog signas and minimizes the interaction between digita ground currents and the anaog section of the ground pane. The resistance from the LTC263 GND pin to the ground pane shoud be as ow as possibe. Resistance here wi add directy to the effective DC output impedance of the device (typicay.1ω). Note that the LTC263 is no more susceptibe to this effect than any other parts of this type; on the contrary, it aows ayout-based performance improvements to shine rather than imiting attainabe performance with excessive interna resistance. Another technique for minimizing errors is to use a separate power ground return trace on another board ayer. The trace shoud run between the point where the power suppy is connected to the board and the DAC ground pin. Thus the DAC ground pin becomes the common point for anaog ground, digita ground, and power ground. When the LTC263 is sinking arge currents, this current fows out the ground pin and directy to the power ground trace without affecting the anaog ground pane votage. It is sometimes necessary to interrupt the ground pane to confine digita ground currents to the digita portion of the pane. When doing this, make the gap in the pane ony as ong as it needs to be to serve its purpose and ensure that no traces cross over the gap. 16 263ff
LTC263 OPERATION Optoisoated 4mA to 2mA Process Controer Figure 5 shows how to use an LTC263HZ to make an optoisoated, digitay-controed 4mA to 2mA transmitter. The transmitter circuitry, incuding optoisoation, is powered by the oop votage which has a wide range of 5.4V to 8V. The 5V output of the LT 31-5 is used to set the 4mA offset current and V OUT is used to digitay contro the ma to 16mA signa current. The suppy current for the reguator, DAC, and op amp is we beow the 4mA budget at zero scae. R S senses the tota oop current, which incudes the quiescent suppy current and additiona current through Q1. Note that at the maximum oop votage of 8V, Q1 wi dissipate 1.6W when I OUT = 2mA and must have an appropriate heat sink. R OFFSET and R GAIN are the cosest.1% vaues to idea for controing a 4mA to 2mA output as the digita input varies from zero scae to fu scae. Aternativey, R OFFSET can be a 365k, 1% resistor in series with a 2k trim pot and R GAIN can be a 75.k, 1% resistor in series with a 5k trim pot. The optoisoators shown wi imit the speed of the seria bus; the 6N139 is an aternative that wi aow higher data rates.
