Qualified for automotive applications

The AD5304/AD5314/AD53241 are quad 8-, 10-, and 12-bit
buffered voltage output DACs in 10-lead MSOP and 10-lead
LFCSP packages that operate from a single 2.5 V to 5.5 V supply,
consuming 500 μA at 3 V. Their on-chip output amplifiers allow
rail-to-rail output swing to be achieved with a slew rate of 0.7 V/μs.
A 3-wire serial interface is used; it operates at clock rates up to
30 MHz and is compatible with standard SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE,
and DSP interface standards.
The references for the four DACs are derived from one reference
pin. The outputs of all DACs can be updated simultaneously using
the software LDAC function. The parts incorporate a power-on
reset circuit, and ensure that the DAC outputs power up to 0 V
and remains there until a valid write takes place to the device.
The parts contain a power-down feature that reduces the current
consumption of the device to 200 nA @ 5 V (80 nA @ 3 V).
The low power consumption of these parts in normal operation
makes them ideally suited to portable battery-operated equipment.
The power consumption is 3 mW at 5 V, 1.5 mW at 3 V, reducing
to 1 μW in power-down mode.

APPLICATIONS
Portable battery-powered instruments
Digital gain and offset adjustment
Programmable voltage and current sources
Programmable attenuators
Industrial process controls

Description
Power Supply Input. These parts can be operated from 2.5 V to 5.5 V and the supply can be decoupled to GND.
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from DAC A. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from DAC B. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from DAC C. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Reference Input Pin for All Four DACs. It has an input range from 0.25 V to VDD.
Buffered Analog Output Voltage from DAC D. The output amplifier has rail-to-rail operation.
Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Part.
Serial Data Input. This device has a 16-bit shift register. Data is clocked into the register on the falling edge of the
serial clock input. The DIN input buffer is powered down after each write cycle.
Serial Clock Input. Data is clocked into the input shift register on the falling edge of the serial clock input. Data can
be transferred at clock speeds up to 30 MHz. The SCLK input buffer is powered down after each write cycle.
Active Low Control Input. This is the frame synchronization signal for the input data. When SYNC goes low, it
enables the input shift register and data is transferred in on the falling edges of the following 16 clocks. If SYNC is
taken high before the 16th falling edge of SCLK, the rising edge of SYNC acts as an interrupt and the write
sequence is ignored by the device.
Ground Reference Point for All Circuitry on the Part. Can be connected to 0 V or left unconnected provided there is
a connection to 0 V via the GND pin.

For the 10-Lead LFCSP only.

TERMINOLOGY
Relative Accuracy or Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
For the DAC, relative accuracy or integral nonlinearity (INL)
is a measure of the maximum deviation, in LSB, from a straight
line passing through the endpoints of the DAC transfer function.
Typical INL vs. code plots can be seen in Figure 5, Figure 6,
and Figure 7.
Differential Nonlinearity
Differential nonlinearity (DNL) 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
maximum ensures monotonicity. This DAC is guaranteed monotonic by design. Typical DNL vs. code plots can be seen in Figure 8,
Figure 9, and Figure 10.
Offset Error
This is a measure of the offset error of the DAC and the output
amplifier. It is expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Gain Error
This is a measure of the span error of the DAC. It is the deviation
in slope of the actual DAC transfer characteristic from the ideal
expressed as a percentage of the full-scale range.
Offset Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in offset error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in (ppm of full-scale range)/°C.
Gain Error Drift
This is a measure of the change in gain error with changes in
temperature. It is expressed in (ppm of full-scale range)/°C.
Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR)
This indicates how the output of the DAC is affected by changes
in the supply voltage. PSRR is the ratio of the change in VOUT to
a change in VDD for full-scale output of the DAC. It is measured
in decibels. VREF is held at 2 V and VDD is varied ±10%.
DC Crosstalk
This is the dc change in the output level of one DAC at midscale
in response to a full-scale code change (all 0s to all 1s and vice
versa) and output change of another DAC. It is expressed in
microvolts.
Reference Feedthrough
This is the ratio of the amplitude of the signal at the DAC output to
the reference input when the DAC output is not being updated.
It is expressed in decibels.

Major-Code Transition Glitch Energy
Major-code transition glitch energy is the energy of the impulse
injected into the analog output when the code in the DAC register
changes state. It is normally specified as the area of the glitch in
nV-s and is measured when the digital code is changed by 1 LSB
at the major carry transition (011 . . . 11 to 100 . . . 00 or 100 . . .
00 to 011 . . . 11).
Digital Feedthrough
Digital feedthrough is a measure of the impulse injected into the
analog output of the DAC from the digital input pins of the
device when the DAC output is not being written to (SYNC
held high). It is specified in nV-s and is measured with a worstcase change on the digital input pins (for example, from all 0s
to all 1s or vice versa.)
Digital Crosstalk
This is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC
at midscale in response to a full-scale code change (all 0s to all
1s and vice versa) in the input register of another DAC. It is
expressed in nV-s.
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
This is the glitch impulse transferred to the output of one DAC
due to a digital code change and subsequent output change of
another DAC. This includes both digital and analog crosstalk.
It is measured by loading one of the DACs with a full-scale code
change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa) with the LDAC bit set low
and monitoring the output of another DAC. The energy of the
glitch is expressed in nV-s.
Multiplying Bandwidth
The amplifiers within the DAC have a finite bandwidth. The
multiplying bandwidth is a measure of this. A sine wave on the
reference (with full-scale code loaded to the DAC) appears on
the output. The multiplying bandwidth is the frequency at which
the output amplitude falls to 3 dB below the input.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
This is the difference between an ideal sine wave and its attenuated
version using the DAC. The sine wave is used as the reference for
the DAC and the THD is a measure of the harmonics present on
the DAC output. It is measured in decibels.

THEORY OF OPERATION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

R

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 are quad, resistor-string DACs
fabricated on a CMOS process with resolutions of 8, 10, and 12
bits, respectively. Each contains four output buffer amplifiers and
is written to via a 3-wire serial interface. They operate from single
supplies of 2.5 V to 5.5 V, and the output buffer amplifiers provide
rail-to-rail output swing with a slew rate of 0.7 V/μs. The four
DACs share a single reference input pin. The devices have programmable power-down modes, in which all DACs can be turned
off completely with a high impedance output.

DAC Reference Inputs

The architecture of one DAC channel consists of a resistor-string
DAC followed by an output buffer amplifier. The voltage at the
REFIN pin provides the reference voltage for the DAC. Figure 30
shows a block diagram of the DAC architecture. Since the input
coding to the DAC is straight binary, the ideal output voltage is
given by

There is a single reference input pin for the four DACs. The
reference input is not buffered. The user can have a reference
voltage as low as 0.25 V or as high as VDD because there is no
restriction due to the headroom or footroom requirements of
any reference amplifier. It is recommended to use a buffered
reference in the external circuit (for example, REF192). The
input impedance is typically 45 kΩ.

where
D = decimal equivalent of the binary code that is loaded to the
DAC register:
0–255 for AD5304 (8 bits)
0–1023 for AD5314 (10 bits)
0–4095 for AD5324 (12 bits)

The output buffer amplifier is capable of generating rail-to-rail
voltages on its output, giving an output range of 0 V to VDD when
the reference is VDD. It is capable of driving a load of 2 kΩto
GND or VDD, in parallel with 500 pF to GND or VDD. The source
and sink capabilities of the output amplifier can be seen in the
plot in Figure 15.
The slew rate is 0.7 V/μs with a half-scale settling time to
±0.5 LSB (at eight bits) of 6 μs.

Resistor String
The resistor string section is shown in Figure 31. It is simply a
string of resistors, each of value R. The digital code loaded to the
DAC register determines at which node on the string the voltage
is tapped off to be fed into the output amplifier. The voltage is
tapped off by closing one of the switches connecting the string
to the amplifier. Because it is a string of resistors, it is guaranteed
monotonic.

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 are provided with a power-on reset
function, so that they power up in a defined state. The power-on
state uses normal operation and an output voltage set to 0 V.
Both input and DAC registers are filled with zeros and remain
so until a valid write sequence is made to the device. This is
particularly useful in applications where it is important to know
the state of the DAC outputs while the device is powering up.

SERIAL INTERFACE
The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 are controlled over a versatile,
3-wire serial interface that operates at clock rates up to 30 MHz
and are compatible with SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and DSP
interface standards.

Input Shift Register
The input shift register is 16 bits wide. Data is loaded into the
device as a 16-bit word under the control of a serial clock input,
SCLK. See Figure 2 for the timing diagram of this operation. The
16-bit word consists of four control bits followed by 8, 10, or 12
bits of DAC data, depending on the device type. Data is loaded
MSB first (Bit 15) and the first two bits determine whether the
data is for DAC A, DAC B, DAC C, or DAC D. Bit 13 and Bit 12
control the operating mode of the DAC. Bit 13 is PD, and determines whether the part is in normal or power-down mode. Bit 12 is
LDAC, and controls when DAC registers and outputs are updated.

0: All four DACs go into power-down mode, consuming

1: Normal operation.

LDAC

The SYNC input is a level-triggered input that acts as a frame
synchronization signal and chip enable. Data can be transferred
into the device only while SYNC is low. To start the serial data
transfer, take SYNC low, observing the minimum SYNC to SCLK
falling edge setup time, t4. After SYNC goes low, serial data shifts
into the device’s input shift register on the falling edges of SCLK
for 16 clock pulses. Any data and clock pulses after the 16th falling
edge of SCLK are ignored because the SCLK and DIN input buffers
are powered down. No further serial data transfer occurs until
SYNC is taken high and low again.
SYNC can be taken high after the falling edge of the 16th SCLK
pulse, observing the minimum SCLK falling edge to SYNC
rising edge time, t7.

Address and Control Bits
PD

corresponding to 0 V output and all 1s corresponding to full-scale
output (VREF − 1 LSB).

0: All four DAC registers and, therefore, all DAC outputs
updated simultaneously on completion of the write
sequence.
1: Only addressed input register is updated. There is
no change in the content of the DAC registers.

It is not recommended to set the PD and LDAC control bits
simultaneously. Depending on the SPI transmission rate, this
causes the data transferred to be loaded into the DAC register if
the LDAC control bit was previously set.

After the end of the serial data transfer, data automatically transfers
from the input shift register to the input register of the selected
DAC. If SYNC is taken high before the 16th falling edge of SCLK,
the data transfer is aborted and the DAC input registers are not
updated.
When data has been transferred into three of the DAC input
registers, all DAC registers and all DAC outputs are simultaneously
updated by setting LDAC low when writing to the remaining
DAC input register.

Low Power Serial Interface
To reduce the power consumption of the device even further, the
interface fully powers up only when the device is being written
to, that is, on the falling edge of SYNC. As soon as the 16-bit
control word has been written to the part, the SCLK and DIN
input buffers are powered down. They power up again only
following a falling edge of SYNC.

The AD5324 uses all 12 bits of DAC data; the AD5314 uses 10 bits
and ignores the 2 LSB Bits. The AD5304 uses eight bits and ignores
the last four bits. The data format is straight binary, with all 0s
Rev. I | Page 15 of 24

AD5304/AD5314/AD5324

Data Sheet

Access to the DAC register is controlled by the LDAC bit. When
the LDAC bit is set high, the DAC register is latched and hence
the input register can change state without affecting the contents of
the DAC register. However, when the LDAC bit is set low, all DAC
registers are updated after a complete write sequence.
This is useful if the user requires simultaneous updating of all
DAC outputs. The user can write to three of the input registers
individually and then, by setting the LDAC bit low when
writing to the remaining DAC input register, all outputs
update simultaneously.
These parts contain an extra feature whereby the DAC register
is not updated unless its input register has been updated since
the last time that LDAC was brought low. Normally, when LDAC
is brought low, the DAC registers are filled with the contents of
the input registers. In the case of the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324,
the part updates the DAC register only if the input register has
been changed since the last time the DAC register was updated,
thereby removing unnecessary digital crosstalk.

00929-035

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 DACs have double-buffered interfaces consisting of two banks of registers—input registers and
DAC registers. The input register is directly connected to the input
shift register and the digital code is transferred to the relevant input
register on completion of a valid write sequence. The DAC
register contains the digital code used by the resistor string.

The bias generator, the output amplifier, the resistor string, and
all other associated linear circuitry are shut down when the powerdown mode is activated. However, the contents of the registers
are unaffected when in power-down. The time to exit power-down
is typically 2.5 μs for VDD = 5 V and 5 μs when VDD = 3 V. This is
the time from the falling edge of the 16th SCLK pulse to when
the output voltage deviates from its power down voltage. See
Figure 22 for a plot.

AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 to ADSP-21xx
Figure 36 shows a serial interface between the AD5304/AD5314/
AD5324 and the ADSP-21xx family. The ADSP-21xx is set up
to operate in the SPORT transmit alternate framing mode. The
ADSP-21xx sport is programmed through the SPORT control
register and must be configured as follows: internal clock operation,
active-low framing, and 16-bit word length. Transmission is
initiated by writing a word to the Tx register after the SPORT
has been enabled. The data is clocked out on each rising edge of
the DSP’s serial clock and clocked into the AD5304/AD5314/
AD5324 on the falling edge of the DAC’s SCLK.

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 have low power consumption,
dissipating only 1.5 mW with a 3 V supply and 3 mW with a
5 V supply. Power consumption can be further reduced when
the DACs are not in use by putting them into power-down mode,
selected by a 0 on Bit 13 (PD) of the control word.
When the PD bit is set to 1, all DACs work normally with a typical
power consumption of 600 μA at 5 V (500 μA at 3 V). However, in
power-down mode, the supply current falls to 200 nA at 5 V
(80 nA at 3 V) when all DACs are powered down. Not only does
the supply current drop, but also the output stage is internally
switched from the output of the amplifier, making it open-circuit.
This has the advantage that the output is three-stated while the
part is in power-down mode, and provides a defined input
condition for whatever is connected to the output of the DAC
amplifier. The output stage is illustrated in Figure 35.

Figure 37 shows a serial interface between the AD5304/AD5314/

68HC11/68L11 drives the SCLK of the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324,
while the MOSI output drives the serial data line (DIN) of the
DAC. The SYNC signal is derived from a port line (PC7). The
setup conditions for the correct operation of this interface are as
follows: the 68HC11/68L11 is configured so that its CPOL bit is
a 0 and its CPHA bit is a 1. When data is being transmitted to the
DAC, the SYNC line is taken low (PC7). When the 68HC11/68L11
is configured as above, data appearing on the MOSI output is
valid on the falling edge of SCK. Serial data from the 68HC11/
68L11 is transmitted in 8-bit bytes with only eight falling clock
edges occurring in the transmit cycle. Data is transmitted MSB
first. To load data to the AD5304/ AD5314/AD5324, PC7 is left
low after the first eight bits are transferred, a second serial write
operation is performed to the DAC, and PC7 is taken high at

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT

Bipolar Operation Using the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 can be used with a wide range
of reference voltages where the devices offer full, one-quadrant
multiplying capability over a reference range of 0 V to VDD.
More typically, these devices are used with a fixed, precision
reference voltage. Suitable references for 5 V operation are the
AD780 and REF192 (2.5 V references). For 2.5 V operation, a
suitable external reference would be the AD589, a 1.23 V band
gap reference. Figure 40 shows a typical setup for the AD5304/
AD5314/AD5324 when using an external reference.

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 have been designed for single
supply operation, but a bipolar output range is also possible
using the circuit in Figure 41. This circuit gives an output voltage
range of ±5 V. Rail-to-rail operation at the amplifier output is
achievable using an AD820 or an OP295 as the output amplifier.

Figure 40. AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 Using External Reference

If an output range of 0 V to VDD is required, the simplest solution is
to connect the reference input to VDD. As this supply is not very
accurate and can be noisy, the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 can
be powered from the reference voltage; for example, using a 5 V
reference such as the REF195. The REF195 can output a steady
supply voltage for the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324. The current
required from the REF195 is 600 μA supply current and approximately 112 μA into the reference input. This is with no load on
the DAC outputs. When the DAC outputs are loaded, the REF195
also needs to supply the current to the loads. The total current
required (with a 10 kΩload on each output) is

The output voltage for any input code can be calculated as follows:

 (REFIN × D / 2 N ) × (R1 + R2) 
VOUT = 
 − REFIN × (R2 / R1)
R1


where:
D is the decimal equivalent of the code loaded to the DAC.
N is the DAC resolution.
REFIN is the reference voltage input:

712 μA + 4 (5 V/10 kΩ) = 2.70 mA
The load regulation of the REF195 is typically 2 ppm/mA, resulting
in an error of 5.4 ppm (27 μV) for the 2.7 mA current drawn from
it. This corresponds to a 0.0014 LSB error at eight bits and
0.022 LSB error at 12 bits.

A digitally programmable upper/lower limit detector using two
DACs in the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 is shown in Figure 44.
The upper and lower limits for the test are loaded to DAC A
and DAC B, which, in turn, set the limits on the CMP04. If the
signal at the VIN input is not within the programmed window,
an LED indicates the fail condition. Similarly, DAC C and DAC D
can be used for window detection on a second VIN signal.

DECODING MULTIPLE AD5304/AD5314/AD5324S
The SYNC pin on the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 can be used
in applications to decode a number of DACs. In this application, all
the DACs in the system receive the same serial clock and serial
data, but SYNC can only be active to one of the devices at any one
time, allowing access to four channels in this 16-channel system.
The 74HC139 is used as a 2-to-4-line decoder to address any of the
DACs in the system. To prevent timing errors, the enable input
must be brought to its inactive state while the coded address
inputs are changing state. Figure 43 shows a diagram of a typical
setup for decoding multiple AD5304 devices in a system.

The AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 have a versatile 3-wire serial
inter-face, making them ideal for generating accurate voltages
in process control and industrial applications. Due to noise,
safety requirements, or distance, it might be necessary to isolate
the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 from the controller. This can
easily be achieved by using opto-isolators, which provide isolation
in excess of 3 kV. The actual data rate achieved is limited by the
type of optocouplers chosen. The serial loading structure of the
AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 makes them ideally suited for use in
opto-isolated applications. Figure 42 shows an opto-isolated
interface to the AD5304 where DIN, SCLK, and SYNC are driven
from optocouplers. The power supply to the part also needs to
be isolated. This is done by using a transformer. On the DAC
side of the transformer, a 5 V regulator provides the 5 V supply
required for the AD5304.

POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING AND GROUNDING

the common ceramic types that provide a low impedance path
to ground at high frequencies, to handle transient currents due
to internal logic switching.

In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful consideration of
the power supply and ground return layout helps to ensure the
rated performance. The printed circuit board on which the
AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 is mounted is designed so that the
analog and digital sections are separated and confined to certain
areas of the board. If the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 are in a
system where multiple devices require an AGND-to-DGND
connection, the connection is made at one point only. The star
ground point is established as close as possible to the device. The
AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 has ample supply bypassing of 10 μF in
parallel with 0.1 μF on the supply located as close to the package as
possible, ideally right up against the device. The 10 μF capacitors
are the tantalum bead type. The 0.1 μF capacitor has low effective
series resistance (ESR) and effective series inductance (ESI), like

The power supply lines of the AD5304/AD5314/AD5324 use as
large a trace as possible to provide low impedance paths and reduce
the effects of glitches on the power supply line. Fast switching
signals such as clocks are shielded with digital ground to avoid
radiating noise to other parts of the board, and are never run
near the reference inputs. Avoid crossover of digital and analog
signals. Traces on opposite sides of the board run at right angles
to each other. This reduces the effects of feedthrough through
the board. A microstrip technique is by far the best, but is not
always possible with a double-sided board. In this technique,
the component side of the board is dedicated to a ground plane
while signal traces are placed on the solder side.
